What is Water Hammer
you might know that most liquids are incompressible or at least barely compressible which means no matter how much pressure you apply their volume doesn't change this can be really useful like in hydraulic cylinders but that lack of springiness can also lead to catastrophic failure of pipe systems am Grady and this is practical engineering on today's episode we're talking about hydraulic transients also known as water [Music] this video is sponsored in part by blue apron more on that later it's easy to forget how heavy water is since we hardly ever carry more than a few ounces at a time but if you add up all the water in the pipeline's of your city or even just the pipes in your house it makes up quite a bit of mass and when all that water is moving through a pipe it has quite a bit of momentum if you suddenly stop that movement for example by quickly closing a valve all that momentum has nowhere to go since water isn't compressible or springy it can't soften the blow you might as well be slamming concrete into the back of the valve and the walls of your pipe instead of being absorbed that sudden change in momentum creates a spike in pressure that travels as a shockwave through the pipe sometimes you'll even hear this shock wave as banging in your walls when you close a faucet or run the washing machine hence the superhero s nickname water hammer banging pipes inside your walls can sound a bit spooky but for large diameter pipe lines that can be hundreds of kilometers long that surge in pressure from a change in momentum can cause major damage let's do a quick calculation if you have a pipeline carrying water that is one meter in diameter and runs for a hundred kilometres a fairly average-sized pipeline the mass of water and the pipe is about 80 million kilograms that's a lot of kilograms in fact it's the equivalent of about ten freight trains imagine you're an operator at the end of this pipeline in charge of closing a valve if you close it quickly you've essentially slammed those trains into a brick wall and the pressure spike that results from such a sudden change in momentum can rupture the pipe or cause serious damage to other parts of the system there's actually another term for when a large spike in pressure ruptures a sealed container a bomb and water hammer can be equally as dangerous so how do engineers design pipe systems to avoid this condition let's build a model pipeline and find out here's my setup I've got about a hundred feet or thirty meters of PVC pipe connected to the water on one end and a valve on the other I also have an analog and digital gauge so we can see how the pressure changes and a clear section of pipe in case anything exciting happens in there I mean the civil engineering exciting not like actual exciting watch what happens when I close this valve it doesn't look like much from the outside but look at the data from the pressure gauge the pressure spikes to over 2000 kilo Pascal's or about 300 psi that's five times the static water pressure it's not enough to break the pipe but way more than enough to break this pressure gauge you can see why designing a pipeline or pipe network can be a little more complicated than it seems these spikes and pressure can travel through a system in complicated ways but we can use a simple demonstration to show a few ways that engineers mitigate the potential damage from water hammer this is the equation for the pressure profile of a water hammer pulse we're not going to do any calculus here but the terms of this equation show the parameters that can be adjusted to dial back these damaging forces and the first one is obvious it's the speed at which the fluid is moving through the pipe reducing this is one of the simplest ways to reduce the effect of water hammer velocity is a function of the flow rate and the size of the pipe if you're designing a pipeline the flow rate might be fixed so you can increase the size of your pipe to reduce the velocity a smaller pipe may be less expensive but the flow velocity will be higher which may cause issues with water hammer in this case my pipe size is fixed but I can reduce the flow rate to limit the velocity each time I reduce the velocity and close the valve the resulting spike in pressure decreases next you can increase the time over which the change in momentum occurs one common example of this is adding flywheels to pumps so they spin down more slowly rather than stopping suddenly another example is just to close valves more slowly if I gently shut the valve rather than allowing it to snap shut the pressure changes are more subtle on large pipe lines Engineers not only design the components but develop the requirements for operation of the equipment this will almost always include rules for how quickly valves can be open or closed to avoid issues with water hammer the final parameter we can adjust is the speed of sound through the fluid also known as wave celerity this describes how quickly a pressure wave can propagate through the pipe the wave celerity is an indirect measure of the elasticity of the system and it can depend on compressibility of the fluid the material of pipe and whether or not it's buried in the ground in a very rigid system pressure waves can reflect easily without much attenuation i've got flexible PVC pipes sitting on the ground free to move which is already helping to reduce the magnitude of the water hammer I can increase the flexibility even more by adding a nanny search device this has an air bladder that can absorb some of the shock and reduce the pressure spike even further any Serge devices are very common in pipe systems and they can be as simple as spring-loaded valves that open up if the pressure gets too high in water distribution systems for urban areas water towers help with surge control by allowing the free surface to move up and down absorbing sudden changes in pressure plumbing is one of the under acknowledged innovations that has made our modern society possible but when you harness the power of water by putting it in pipes it's easy to forget about that power all together water can be as hard as concrete when confined and if you bang two hard things together eventually something's gonna break if you're an engineer your job is to make sure it's not the expensive infrastructure you design part of that means being able to predict surges and pressure do the water hammer and design systems that can mitigate any potential damage that might result thank you for

The Level Up Hour (E53) | Pipeline as code
[Music] do [Music] good morning good afternoon good evening and welcome to another episode working on open shift and sometimes this is so awesome on top of the red hat portfolio [Music] good morning good afternoon and good evening you have lurched into another episode of the level up hour so thank you for joining us please make sure to like subscribe and share it let everybody know that we're out here on the air uh i'm randy russell director of certification at red hat so shout out to all those red hat certified professionals out there and i'm joined by my co-hosts jafar chiribi and scott mcbrian greetings gentlemen and hi welcome to and so today we have a very interesting uh episode in which we're going to talk about pipelines as code okay and to help us untangle that is shimul bhujna who is the lead architect and developer of guess what pipeline says code so i think this is going to be uh a very interesting episode so first of all let's let's talk a little bit about pipeline as code jafar that's uh you know i you know i think i'm going to back it up a whole lot and say well you know i think most of us at this point in time are familiar with the concept of a ci cd pipeline you know continuous integration continuous continuous deployment where you have your application the new feature the bug fix whatever and it is whisked seamlessly and effortlessly through test and stage all the way to its glorious end in production right uh so help me understand what we're getting at when we talk about about pipeline as code okay sure sure so again i wanted to thank small for joining us here today um so he will be explaining a bit more the new features that we are offering on openshift but to to to give some background to this so we all know that traditional ci cd tools have been evolving since uh we started using that kind of tools to provide some kind of um scripted automation to to to do your pipelines so basically writing what we call domain specific languages where you have some scripting specific scripting like groovy or whatever specific languages was used for that specific ci cd tool so basically for example if we speak about openshift and jenkins we've been providing something called support for jenkins files which basically is a a groovy script that orchestrates your ci and cd steps throughout the different environments but as the kubernetes ecosystem really boomed and i would say exploded and it started to become the de facto uh infrastructure to run apk containerized applications so i'm saying kubernetes is the intra uh probably some some people will throw some some rocks or tomatoes at me but basically yeah we can consider that it's the the new the modern uh infrastructure to run those applications and something that has emerged uh about two years ago which is uh could we think about kubernetes also as a ci or cd tool so basically instead of relying on a dedicated ci tool like jenkins or i don't want to call out those tools because they are great and they are good at what they do but like jenkins gitlab or travis or whatever those tools um so the goal was can we have something that is relying solely on kubernetes as the cicd engine can we extend kubernetes to understand new concepts of ci cd and since the introduction of what we call custom resource definitions in the kubernetes api that allowed us to create some new concepts that were not existing in kubernetes before in a simple way so the the key thing behind it is in a simple way so basically you can now tell two kubernetes here's a new concept it's called a pipeline here's a new concept it's called a step here's a new concept it's called a task or whatever and basically now kubernetes starts to understand how to trigger uh and run pipelines natively by orchestrating containerized actions uh or tasks and thus we don't need those uh dedicated cicd tools anymore and one of the drawbacks i would say well not drawbacks but one of the things that you had to take care of was the administration uh of those tools so now since you are switching to kubernetes that's i would say less administration so that's the first it's more uh portability because now you can have your ci running on any kubernetes cluster that has those concepts installed so basically it's based on an upstream project called tecton and the great thing with tecton is that it's all of those uh great cicd vendors players coming together to come up with some sort of standard so the the standard way of of pragmatically describing what a pipeline is or what we call pipeline as code right so how can we write yaml files that translate into pipeline execution so that was the whole idea behind tecton so that was to provide a kubernetes native cicd uh ecosystem all right so if you have a if you have a now that it's kubernetes native you get the the benefit of not having some integration points that you might have otherwise you have the consolidating down to a smaller number of uh technologies or products in a sense and potentially a smaller number of vendors which is also sometimes a benefit uh and then it is it is actually something that's native i there's something ironic in this in that i think a lot of the world has come to kubernetes and to openshift with the desire to build out their their cicd pipelines and it can be effective for that but it has not actually been a native capability from the outset so it's really interesting to me that now the purpose that so many uh organizations come to openshift is actually going to be supported natively would that be a fair statement to make yeah yes definitely and so the interesting thing is that um so of course kubernetes is known for its scalability uh you can now orchestrate thousands of tasks and and pipelines because kubernetes allows you to have that scalability you can dedicate so you could do that before with the traditional ci tools by using what we call agents so basically you had to deploy agents you had to administrate them upgrade them and all all all of those kind of of topics and also one of the the things was say you wanted to integrate now with a new set of uh tools um it's so either there's a an existing plugin that you can rely on uh and you just uh take it and use it but you are limited to whatever the plugin offers or you are a massive java guru and you can for instance create your own pipeline i have some colleagues who did that but like they are crazy guys but they are very talented guys of course uh but now with with the kubernetes and text on uh way of doing it it's basically you are creating container images that contain all the tools that you need and then through the yaml steps you are referring referencing those images and say this is the command that you need to execute in this by putting this specific image so now it becomes much more much easier to extend the capabilities of your ci cd ecosystem basically as long as you can put it in a container it's going to be fine with your it is it is ready to go so um we actually already have a question in the chat and uh shmuel i think uh a perfect introduction to your participation here would be to put you on the spot so she can't ask the question is okay how do we manage pipeline as code when we have hundreds of micro services and in brief the answer is uh the proof is that you're doing uh integration testing is that uh so first uh so first like we need to maybe to explain like what's uh what's pipeline has called i mean uh uh java has done like a great uh introduction like to take down pipeline and how you specify pipeline like in jumbles and define your your testing and the steps the different steps for the testing but the pipeline has code itself what it does is that you have uh you have a repo history like where you have some codes inside it uh micro services for example like she was mentioning and uh and you want part of the development process so when you're doing a change to your code you won't like to have your pipelines living with it so you don't like to to to be able and that you that you will change that's happening in your code like reflect what's inside your pipeline so historically and a lot of ci systems uh does that is that like you installed your pipeline before and uh whenever there is like a code change then you test it if you need to make a change to your pipeline you go on the server you change the background here with pipeline escort the basic idea is to be able like to have your code inside uh your your to your pipeline inside your code so whenever like for example like you're adding like a new component that needs like different kind of testing different steps inside your pipeline then part of the pr that you're going to spend do a two cent like it's going to pick up like that cell change and and it's going to uh take effect with with the change of your code uh so the question of street is like how you do that like when you are like so as i said like the the the repo history like it's very tight for the change that you have inside the pipeline so the pipeline reflects the code and how do you do that like when you have like multiple micro services uh and usually like usually it goes beyond pipeline code is that it's how you're going to test your micro services so to be able to test your micro services there is different techniques to do that like integration technique integration integration test and uh and when you have like multiple macro services you usually uh use contract testing so you have contracts between different uh components microservices and you just like making sure that they work to each other so when you're going to work your pipeline has code pipeline uh you're going to have like integration testing of those microservices but together and every time you're doing like a pr to your code like it's going to run those uh integration tests making sure that your change is not integrated yeah so thanks thanks a lot small that's um that's uh some some great insight and if in fact this this question alone uh can be discussed for like the whole afternoon because it's it's it's a very complex topic actually um i i did a webinar on that specific topic it's like ci cd uh for microservices uh it was a few few months back uh we can try to find the link and share that afterwards but i think it's also a good topic to just because uh it's yeah there are a lot of things that you need to address both from an administration standpoint and from a a developer standpoint or from a devops standpoint so so basically one of the key aspects is because you are managing hundreds of services these type of new pipelines allow you to have some genericity something that can be reused across the similar applications so for instance if your application landscape is composed of 30 of java apps and 50 of node.js apps or whatever so i'm throwing random numbers here you can try to factor the java apps into a similar pipeline that will allow you to just point out to a different java repo and then build out the application with the same exact pipeline and then deploy that microservice somewhere so what you really need to avoid at all cost is if you have 100 micro services to create a hundred different pipelines that's that's something that doesn't scale it's not something that you will be able to manage so the key topic here is factor your pipelines and have something that is generic and that can be dynamically adapted to your micro service so one pipeline definition can serve 30 micro services for example that's one of i would say the key aspects of course uh what uh smwell mentioned integration testing contract uh testing things using things like mocks when the microservices that you rely on are not still available in the testing process so yeah there are many many techniques that we can maybe discuss and yeah smile i think you wanted to say something um now i i just wanted to add uh to your to your to your answer uh is that it's like there is this like as you said like there's so many things like we can talk about uh for uh for micro services but there is as well like how are you going to structure your code like are you going to have like multiple representatives are going to have like a mono ripple are you got like a multiple repos branch together and the complexity is going to be enormous like different uh way so a lot of people goes to monorail monorepo kind of structure to be able like to uh to solve those kind of problems and uh and then yeah if you if you start like to have like a hundred uh android micro services uh you'll need to think about like how you're going to uh move it like to a monorail structure if because the complexity can be like really great if you are if you don't have that yeah you don't want to have 100 examples of uh pipeline as code is basically right what you want to end up not with yes yeah exactly using the earlier example so you you say okay well so they're maybe at 60 40 java to node.js what you're hoping is that in the perfect situation maybe you have two approaches to pipeline as code one is your node.js approach one is your java approach maybe you have to subdivide it a bit more but again you don't want to have a hundred approaches and that might be the real challenge is that in theory it would be possible to do that right yeah yeah so so also one of the key aspects of this pipeline as code or tecton is the reusability of tasks so basically you can define shared tasks that users can can can reference so basically you don't have to reinvent the wheel for pushing uh an image to a registry or for building code or for doing integration testing etc so it's all there it's ready on your shelves you just have to reference it and say please use this task in my pipeline and that's how you can have some genericity and that's how also you how you can lower the barrier of administration when you need to make something evolve so if everything is spread out into the 100 pipelines then whenever there's a change you will have to manually commit that to each and every one of those hundred pipelines if you are uh taking the shared um approach shared tasks or whatever you want to call it you can factor the change in into a single place and then it's reflected in the 100 pipeline that are going to to to reference it so there are many things that you can use to i would say industrialize the way that you build your pipelines and actually would be uh happy to have another episode around this uh one of the other things that we can leverage uh or i don't know if yeah we can say leverage something but use as a leverage is uh git ups also in the picture it can also simplify a lot of those things and it can also address what schmuel mentioned which is this notion of monorepo or multiple repo where every microservice is going to have its own um code and then you have if you are using githubs then you have to think about where you're going to store your github's resources uh and and and stuff like that so organization and standardization are key uh topics that need to drive the conversation uh and of course it's not gonna happen uh like from just one guy deciding something it needs to be taken into a devops approach where you have everyone uh thinking about the end um i would say the end goals and the the best way to standardize the code the repos the pipelines uh the testing approach etc so yeah i think we have uh spoken largely enough about that covered the marketing services yeah exactly so let's back up a little bit and and you know for the for the benefit of uh stabby and myself here what needs to happen if you have for an open shift administrator to make this capability manifest itself in in a in an open shift environment or is this something that that the developers simply start doing and it works as though by magic yeah so uh uh of course that's the end goal is uh to to make it uh appear magical for the developers and make their life easier and i guess shmuel can can talk uh in more details about the the end goal of this but let's let's dissect that into uh several uh things so i would speak about the openshift pipelines shmuel can speak about the pipeliners code i will just rephrase what he said to make sure that everyone is on par in terms of understanding what it does so as an admin first thing is you will have to install the openshift pipelines operator openshift pipelines is our downstream productized supported offering which is included in openshift based on the tecton upstream project that we spoke about so it allows you to basically define pipelines as yaml and kubernetes native resources okay so first thing you need to do is install the openshift pipelines operator luckily we made that very easy for our openshift users so as an admin you can either go through the i would say operator hub and install it or you install it through command line so i can show you that once we go to the demo section and then some things need to happen for the pipelines as code so just to make sure i'm going to rephrase what schmoyer said so once we have the pipelines installed what we want to allow our users to do is to ship the yaml of their pipeline in their application and don't need to worry about creating the pipelines in openshift beforehand because if you are using the traditional way your code even if you commit and push your changes nothing's going to to to happen unless you have a web hook somewhere that triggers a pipeline that you have already configured before so it takes several steps before this can happen so let's say this is the traditional way of doing it i create my pipeline in openshift using yaml or using the ui so because we have a ui builder where you can basically draw your your your ci cd pipeline then you create a webhook that your code repository will use whenever you trigger some events like a git push or git pull or something like that and all of that needs administration you need to configure all of those things so now switching to the uh tkn or pipelines that's called sorry way of doing it and well if you would like please to explain uh how it works and yeah what needs to be done that would be good uh yes so uh so as you explained uh pipeline has caused like plugs into openshift pipeline uh so it's a feature on top of uh openshift pipeline that you can add and uh to make it uh to to make you uh to be able like to do your ci directly uh from your github from other vcs providers like source code so currently partners code is uh is a is a dev preview feature so it's not yet integrated inside the openshift pipeline operator but we are working toward it and it's currently that the way it works like it's available inside the github organization of achieve pipeline and where like you have a way where you have like some restrictions like how to install so the thing is like there's two parts to it like how to do the install uh there is the easy part which is like applying uh yaml files inside the cluster like to get that capability and and the second part is is to be able to say like to your source code provider like github uh that all the all the the events happening inside your repo it's going to it's going to go like to pipe to the openg pipeline cluster so you need to be able to say that so to do that uh uh like the main way like the the main way is to create like a github app so that github app is going to be central to uh to to pipeline as code and it's how uh you're going to manage all the interaction between pipeline as code and your source code so what i mean is like whenever like a developer is going to send a pr uh pipeline code is going to see it uh and it's on the cluster is going to see that there is uh that tecton directory inside your source code repo with a pipeline inside it and it's going to see if it's possible to uh to uh to like if the cluster wants to uh like as information about it so if we are able to to run it or not and then uh if the user as well is a load as well like to do that and then it's going to run it run the pipeline as defined inside your source code so at the point of time of your pr and then it's going to report like it's going to do a nice repost of all the things that has been uh has been failed or has been uh what has been successful and uh with linked to the logs to the openshift console so that's the basics of it and there is multiple features of pipeliners code around that to make it easier to uh to develop a partners code pipeline and which is uh which sits on top of openshift pipeline so so we have like a different like capabilities like uh like for example we have like a what we call like shut ups capabilities so you you're able like for example like when you have like an issue with your infrastructure and uh the backline is failing due for that reason and you can change just like do like a slash retest inside your pr itself and uh it would like restart like the the process and you can do like different things like for uh allowing people to by default like should i like to make sure that uh we we don't allow anyone like using your infra so not everybody can send a pr for anything but uh so i but someone who's alone like can just do like a slash okay to test and automatically like you'll have a like allowing this there's other features as well uh to make it easy so by default uh something that's not possible to do uh with openshift uh with openshift pipeline a vanilla chip pipeline is to be able like to get tasks that's not clusters task or that's not like tasks inside your uh you're inside your namespace that's already installed but with sparkline escort you're able like to say like i want to uh pick up that remote task uh from somewhere else or from the hub to the hub which is like a catalog of all the tasks that's been uh that has been uh that has been contributed by uh by by contributors and ultimately it's going to uh you can use it inside your pipeline without having like to pre-install it or to references from somewhere else and uh and that's the other question that we had previously that we were talking about is like it makes it like as well even more easier to share your different tasks uh because you can just like have a simple url now and you don't have to install it so that's the that's some of the features that you have with spike linus code and i think part of the demo uh it's going to be a bit more clear like how the the flow looks like and how you can you can do a pr and iterate into it and after uh be sure that it's green or not yeah sure so uh thank you uh well for for the i would say this transition should we maybe go to the demo to to work yeah so uh you know it's gonna be more visual and afterwards we can talk about what happened in the background um yeah exactly yeah live demos what can what can go wrong right yeah all right so first step is i i need to succeed in sharing my screen so that's the first step of a successful demo uh can you guys see the screen correctly is it fine yes we can yeah yeah it's good okay okay cool so um yeah let me try something real quick here okay so i have an openshift cluster here where i have a node.js application so where the goal here is to keep it very simple uh let's have a look at this app okay let's see our openshift starters it says version 2.32 by blind just go okay this uh application runs in a namespace where if we look at pipelines i have no pipelines defined so traditionally if i wanted to have ci cd for this application in this project or in another project the first prereq would be to have a pipeline that is defined in the namespace and then i would execute the pipeline by creating what we call backbind runs and if we refer back to what i said about having something that is generic the the pipeline definition is the generic uh aspect of it and the pipeline run injects some some data to say here's the git repo that you should use as an input here's the output image that i want you to generate and stuff like that so okay we have our image we see it's version 232 here and let's have a look at our uh repo so to to speed up things uh for the demo i have already created a pull request and the flow that we are going to look at is i have this specific full request that is open right and basically i can use it as a conversation with all the developers so whenever i'm committing new change to my application i want some ci cd process to be triggered automatically so we can iterate etc and once we are all satisfied we can ultimately merge the pull request into the main branch or something like that so i have a new branch which is i would say our feature range and afterwards i want to merge my code changes into the master branch or sorry we should say main branch but i haven't updated the terminology since then so okay let's make some very quick changes to our code so i'm opening up my ide here and basically you can see i have version 2 33 and i'm going to say it's the level up our level of power change so now i'm gonna commit my changes here say changes i i i like how how it sounds it's funny so and then i push my my changes and wait for something to happen magically so as a developer this is what i do so let's uh watch what happens uh in here as the the comets get uh you know coming into the repo so this will trigger some magical things that we are going to talk about in the in the background and now you see in the github interface i have some indication that the pipeline as code has been triggered and that it's running a ci cd uh pipeline so the interesting thing is that directly from openshift i can see the status i can see that it's running etc and i can also look at the details directly from here so when it's finished i'm going to have the summary if i wanted to check the logs directly from my terminal i could just run this command and oh i'm not logged in so i need to log in there first but let's go back to the ui and have a look at the pipeline so so here from the developer perspective i can see that it's running it's been triggered recently it's doing it's doing the build steps etc and just to make it easier for me to to consult to to to see i have added this notion of pipeline runs into the developer perspective so just a very quick tip for people who are looking at this so say you are using a concept of i would say image stream [Music] image stream tag that doesn't exist by default in the navigation bar on the left side you just say add it to navigation and then on the developer you have a new item that shows you the things that you that you need so that's what i did for the pipeline run and i see now that the pipeline is being executed here so uh for the sake of time let's go back to some of the previously run instances and actually what happens is once the pipeline has succeeded the pipeline has called feature from openshift updates github with the results the build times for each step etc and i can have a direct link from here to the task uh if the logs are still there if they haven't been erased etc so you see that directly from the github i see the status i get directly to the logs uh etc so very nice feature i love it uh well very good job guys uh it's much easier for developers to trigger the pipelines i don't have to create my web hook in the repo and select the event etc so very nice and thank you for making our life if i'm impersonating the developer life easier um all right so uh other things uh exist in this uh in this extension so let's uh go back to how it works so basically within my repository of my application i have some files that have been defined so i have the the pipeline as code that you can see here and it basically describes the um steps that are going to to to be executed you see that i have the first task that is fetch repo second task is build the application to to store the container image and uh last task is going to be deploying the application somewhere i can see it but uh yeah deploy the the app so very simple steps uh in my pipeline now whenever i trigger uh an event so on our case we were speaking about a pull request right so the pull request sorry it's not this fine it's a different one uh yes so i believe it's this one so the pull request uh in um sorry the pipeline run injects the data that i need for the pipeline to run basically it tells where the repo is the branch i'm going to pull the the code from etc what output etc so here i've done some static things but basically what's very interesting here is on what type of events am i going to be triggered so here in my code in my application repo i have a file that says whenever you intercept a pull request configured for this specific repo and we're gonna see how we we configured that uh please trigger this ci cd pipeline run and the pull request needs to happen on this specific branch okay you can also trigger on different events like a push if i'm doing a git push then trigger the pipeline and if i'm doing the uh pull request to a qa then trigger a subset of the pipeline if i'm trigger deploying to production maybe do something more elaborate etc so uh basically you are defining the the how like uh so the when which is basically on what type of events are you going to react and you are defining the what is going to happen in the pipeline so basically that's the magic behind it you have so there's some kind of structure we spoke about this notion of structuring your repo if you want to provide some kind of magic and that's basically um what we we decided is that you have to to ship a dictum folder inside your repo and this is what is going to be triggered so uh now before all of those this magic can happen from the developer perspective some other things need to be done in the background and that's basically what we are going to try to cover for the remaining uh time uh just before that some very nice features that i like uh that small element so yeah we've seen that the pipeline has finished everything looks fine it's all green all good you see that it's been run just now we are not uh like uh smoke doing smoke and mirrors here it's live stuff and now say i i have published something else or whatever and i want to retest basically a specific pr so i just uh submit the retest command command and the backlash code is going to intersect that and basically it's going to trigger the pipeline again even if i didn't uh specifically make my commit or whatever so very nice feature i love it uh again shmuel spoke about some more advanced workflow features where you can approve the prs like okay to whatever okay to test i think or something like that so yeah that's i mean i love it it's advanced it's not something that we uh provided with the with the previous uh tooling we didn't have that i would say two-way integration where from uh openshift you do some stuff in github for instance and then get your results back uh in openshift itself so it's a two-way uh integration uh and i just love it um so if so if we go for a moment uh jafar love the demo we did have a couple of questions come in that uh that i thought we might want to turn our attention to uh briefly here and so uh um the first question was is it possible to deploy the resources to multiple name spaces or are pipelines limited to uh deploy resources in the name space which the pipeline is deployed yeah so that's a great question no no that's the architect of this no i don't i don't mind either way but uh it's just that uh maybe something that we didn't spoke about because it's a bit lower level is that um is that like when you have uh like the way it works is that uh you you have uh like to be able to say that uh your repo is going to be handled by python has code on that cluster and on which namespace uh we have what we call like a repository crd so a resource a custom resource called people history and that's going to say that i want to be able like to handle that repo and uh coming so whatever like there is going to be events coming to openshift pipeline and coming from that repo it's going to be tested in that namespace so in that case it's like when you start like you only it's only going to stop on that namespace but then if you want to use like to a different namespaces uh you can have part of your partners code step you can have like a deployment step or like something else that's going to be able to deploy another domain space but then you're only allowed to do that if you're like some rules are back rules to say that uh this user is allowed to deploy on that other namespace because obviously you don't want to allow to do a to have everything to allow to have access to everything and on the customer yeah correct that's like uh and so basically yeah that's that's a mix of um yeah you are going for example to use service accounts dedicated service accounts to do subsets of your pipelines and whenever so for example uh for me uh in a previous demo i was doing the build in a different namespace and then i was deploying in this namespace but just for the sake of simplicity and avoiding to switch back and forth i put everything in in the same name space but what you have to do is to to give that service account the correct role to be able to do whatever it needs to do in that namespace so for example if you want to to build and push the image to a specific namespace then you have to give it the edit role or something like that uh or if you want to deploy uh you can you you would need to to give it the specific rights using the the openshift role based access stuff so uh so i think the the answer the answer i'm discerning is that it is yes uh but it's not something that it's going it's going to actually require a bit of you know user and access control and you're going to want that because to the to the earlier point you don't want it to be the case that something can simply be be leveraged in the next thing you know there are things coming into your pipeline that you never expected to have coming into your pipeline right especially with events coming from the internet you really don't like to let everything happen like that and we sold the finals and all that yeah that might be a problem so we had another question too uh going back a little bit the uh the deliciously named bacon fork uh was posing the question of what kinds of things can you check for and this was while we were you know in the demo and so we might have to rewind our brains a bit here uh what kinds of things can you check for and i i guess i would say it probably depends on the particular point in your pipeline that you're talking about yeah so i i'm not sure i completely understand the question but basically you are defining uh in your pipeline whatever events or whatever tasks you want to to to trigger and this is uh what is going to be checked within within the pipeline so if for some reason a specific task fails so meaning one of your checks because basically a pipeline is a set of checks and and actions so i'm checking i'm doing something then i'm checking that what i wanted happened if it happened then i go to the next task if not then i fail miserably my pipeline and say okay so please go ahead and make changes to whatever so yeah each step is going to be i would say a check in itself because it's using text on you are going to define uh whatever tasks you are going to reference tasks that you have built on your own or that you have uh pulled from the public uh hubs and then you you you are going to use them in your pipelines i hope i understood the questions correctly but yeah that's my honest uh answer to what i understood they're sticking with them yeah sorry i was i was just adding me like maybe if you didn't know the question and the question was about uh what kind of events pipeline has code can handle and uh but okay like and uh in that case i mean that's uh that's a good information too like we handle the events of uh push and put request so so that's the two events and that's ending and uh and you can add another on the different uh different branch like uh like you say men master whatever and uh release tags uh if you wanted so if you like to launch a pipeline uh whenever you push to a release for a tag then you can handle that events too so i just like to add to it in case that was what the user was meaning to to ask all right so scott you actually had a question um and you know you you are on air you do get to just speak up and ask them you don't have to type them in the chat dude indeed but i i wanted to make sure that i didn't forget to ask it uh and then also you know it's kind of in the middle of jafar's demo and i want to interrupt his flow there so so just just sorry uh i said i was going to show also some of the cool things that they built for the admin side of it so there's still uh another uh set of demos that i was wanted to show but just go ahead these and i promise we will come back i'll try to to to push whatever i can in the demo so you're gonna have to talk really fast get to ask my questions yeah speak yeah go ahead so you know rolling back to the beginning um i just have a more rudimentary question about the integration with github so did you guys set up a web hook so that the operator is triggered by the web hook or does the operator just like do something thank you thank you very much uh scott for for the question because that's exactly what i was going to show so all right the decla the clever guys so i i hope it's gonna work because i haven't i'm switching to a completely different cluster that doesn't have it installed uh and i hope it's gonna work a new live demo yeah new live demo let's let's take our risks again and what could possibly go wrong and see if we can make it alive so all right well so let's go to the let's go to that demo uh we did have some more questions and hopefully we can maybe come to them at the end but i am here to see this all right so so first thing um so as a prereq as i said uh we need to have the uh the openshift pipeline operator mod and that need needs to happen um from so you can do it for for example from the operator so openshift operators so i see that we have the pipelines operator that should be installed yeah so we see that it has been already installed in this cluster but the pipeline as code shouldn't exist or if it does we are going to delete it like savagely deleting so i'm on a different cluster right and let's remove it and show you how no that's not what i want to remove i want to delete pipelines as code and it's not there so that's good all right so that's what i thought because i i had taken care of that now let's go back to our terminal and we have some nice uh command line called tkn pack and tk impact is for techton so we have the tecton cli which is tkn and we have i would say an extension of it called tkn pack for pipeline as code and one of the options that you have is the bootstrap and the bootstrap is is uh basically taking care of all of those background things that you said uh that you you mentioned scott and that you need to do as an admin is basically enable the feature on the cluster so let's try it and uh hope that schmuel did some good job on on that so first thing yeah no pressure i mean if it doesn't work that's not my fault right so i have to mention speaking of that that shmuel has been amazing in in terms of support so okay let's go ahead and install it and basically we were on slack and i'm trying some some funky things and i i ping him on slack and say you know uh the application or this stuff doesn't work he says okay please please remain there he makes some some some weird changes on his like code he pushes and and asked me to to try like 20 minutes afterwards and it works so amazing so basically he is your ci cd pipeline yeah exactly no i mean he is making changes to the pipeline as code uh plugins code publishers could use python as code to do the development so it goes much faster the feedback loop so um yeah we're going to create a github app called cla app and it says okay i have detected that there's a a route that is going to intercept all my events etc and look at the cleverness of these guys they have created an automated way for us oh my god i have to log into github and i have my two-factor stuff so yeah okay create the github app for me and whoa it's it's there magic so now i have my github application that has been created for me and this is basically what is going to intercept all of those uh funky events so first thing that's conversation we had yesterday if you are using uh so basically here the the app is here before using it in the repo let's have a look at what it some of the things so yes it it points back to the uh interceptor that we have on our cluster right and now it says enable ssl verification verification i am not using trusted certificates on this uh home lab so yeah i'm just making sure that i'm i would say yeah not using that that setting now if i go back to the main app i can now install the application and i can choose what repo i want to install it on so i can say push it to all my repos or only to some specific repos and then it's going to intercept those events and it's the equivalent of creating all the web hooks for the concerned repos uh except that it's one single entry point that you create and that can take care of that that magic behind the scenes so all went well for the uh enablement of the feature on the on the new cluster and if i check for as code i should have a new project here and maybe i have also my running pod in there so yeah great the interceptor is working fine and now if i use that application in a repo it's going to create the pipelines on this new cluster even though i haven't created pipeline definitions on my namespace so just quickly yeah just just quickly because i know we're going to go out of time is that uh that there is a lot they like we put strap like the thing like makes it easy is that uh it makes like it makes a lot of manual steps like automatic so it's going to create like a secret on the cluster and it's going to manage and uh do a lot of things uh so that's that's a quick way to get you started so the end goal actually for the as a product so like is to make it part of openshift pipeline but tk impact bootstrap is like it's mostly like if you want to get started and uh and uh and uh to get started and be able like to to uh to try to try it on and uh there is as well like a old manual step that's that's that's frequency in documentation if you really wanted like to go that way and uh hopefully we are working to get the operator so a lot of the steps are going to be are going to be handled by the operator but some part of it like the creation of the github apps which actually we implemented this because we had a lot of because before we didn't have this but a lot of people were making uh uh we're not checking like the right uh uh case like when creating the apps that would like it's really tedious uh manual process but uh that's so that's why we we made it uh so it takes like yes i had a lot of reports and people tagged me about it so uh but uh nice like it makes like literally if you want to try on uh pacquiao you just need to go to the webpage and download the cli ticken pack bootstrap and as long as you have uh openshift cluster and and i github github account then you'll be set to go and the pipeline's operator okay so so yeah let's make sure we've got the list together here you're going to need the pipelines operator and then we're also going to need was that package again cli which we can yeah so if we can maybe drop that in the chat just so that people know because i think there's going to be a lot of interest in uh in being able to do this uh you know being able to have that single view into this within openshift to manage it within openshift i think just the more i think about it the more beneficial it starts to appear so uh we did have a couple of other quick questions um first of all as as always uh you know there's the question about what are the resource requirements to implement this is it going to be part of my same name space or cluster so that's the the beauty of it is that there's no there's no resource requirement extra i mean uh i mean the way we design the incremental there's no incremental resource requirement beyond the open shift deployment you already have that's correct so open pipeline as code is a is is implemented as openshift pipeline so there is no demands they're all like using like internal components from openshift pipeline which is a triggers component uh task pipeline so uh so you don't have like you don't need like to have uh to uh to have like a special like deployments and it's going to like demons and things and so it is that uh it's only going to react to events coming from outside and it's going to use like uh what we call an event listener like a tecton trigger image listener which is built in inside a bench pipeline to be able to handle those events so there is no extra requirement uh resource we can do it great and so uh i think another question that we had was uh can you share with us a holistic view of each stage of the pipeline and so i'm wondering if perhaps we have uh you know a link or web resource that we can point someone towards yeah so i would say so so sorry to phrase it phrase it that way because i'm not a native english speaker but i don't think the content of the pipeline itself is meaningful because basically i've done a very simple pipeline to show like build uh like uh build the code uh build the container image and deploy so basically very very simple stuff but we have a lot of other more sophisticated and more meaningful text and pipelines that we could show you maybe if it makes sense as another episode where basically we do all the stuff like ci we use sonar we use uh unit tests we use integration tests we use code coverage and you know all of those funky stuff and security code scanning and so they're do it i mean basically there could be a lot of different stages that and that's the beauty of this is that you are with code literally defining what all of those stages might be and it might be that you have a simple a very simple naive one-stage model uh you know for the purpose of a demo or something a bit more than that or you could actually have something that has quite a few different stages because it's required by your particular app or governance or you know compliance whatever kinds of things might be in the picture that need to go through a much more staged process so i i guess it's in a sense the answer to that question is is the holistic view is whatever you choose to actually build as you're playing very cool stuff well uh let's see do we have any other questions or closing comments it looks like you just need to add uh something is that about uh openshift console i don't think java had a chance to show it uh because uh it's part of openshift49 so on openshift pro 9 on the openshift console we have an integration like a visual integration of the the repo histories like of batman haskell so basically uh you you if you have like batman has got installed on openshift 409 you'll get a
OpenShift

Chris Matthews Can't Take Kellyanne Conway's Craziness and Burst Into Laughter - NEWS TODAY
[Music] kelly-ann thank you so much I want to start off by something as soft and nice and appropriate I love the fact that the new president met with all those labor leaders I love the fact they met with construction trades guys not public employees and all that stuff but guys and women I guess we're gonna build this new America whose idea was that and is he going to keep doing it that was the president's idea Chris I was thrilled to be a part of that meeting and the subsequent picture-taking session in the Oval Office where he asked those labor union leaders and workers how many of you have been in the Oval Office before the White House and only three hands went up I thought that itself was remarkable because we're always told Chris that these labor union heads and the workers that you and I grew up with in Pennsylvania and New Jersey that they're Democrats they should be here with the Democratic president Donald Trump looks at them as people who are literally building our nation back up and revitalizing it and it was a fabulous far reaching meeting very mutually respectful they talked about job creation they talked about as a carpenter as the pipe fitters the iron workers the plumbers really just very exciting to have him here and it was on the same day that earlier in the day he had manufacturing CEOs in the White House to also discuss with them how to reinvigorate American manufacturing keep those factories and their workers here in the US which of course you see is already happening well that's great because we had Theriot solvent over here last night and we had mark McKenna on - we had a couple of one that's a shin Fenn guy anyway let's talk about let's talk about the wall is just the specifications the specs is this gonna be wall-to-wall is this gonna cover the 2,000 mile border is it gonna be a yes the executive order today that was signed is for a physical wall to be construction on the southern border I assume those who are tasked with the actual construction Chris will decide what materials are used but this is his chief center campaign promise of many months and and at the same time let's let's make clear what this does this executive order also expands the detention space for those illegal immigrants who are caught trying to cross over the wall we just have to stop this incessant flow of people and have drugs across our border it also allows additional tools and resources for our agents on that wall and who are working along the wall borders border security and our law enforcement officers who are doing their best often a very difficult and dangerous circumstances Chris to comply with the law so it is building the wall but it also allows the tools that we need to make the wall real we are a sovereign nation we've been spending billions of dollars protecting other nations walls and borders it's time we do the same for our country let's talk about it as they say in football is secondary what are you going to happy for those who do get through the wall though people come by boat playing whatever they overstay their visas is the Trump plan ultimately going to include a feature that says no more illegal hiring of people who come here desperately willing to work for nothing practically is there going to be some feature to to stop that well the president has said and he on a different network is giving the interview tonight where he says he's going to take a look at that the first and foremost those many people who are here illegally and are are criminals they're out of here there is no consideration so we have to start there I think it's a very important place for all of us to start he also has talked about the fact that he is putting the American worker first so whether it's meeting with the literally meeting with the American worker those labor unions and manufacturing CEOs Chris or in the case of his immigration policy saying that this this nonsense of a lot of the billionaire elitist love to say that illegal immigrants are here to do the jobs that Americans just won't do we've heard from so many Americans Chris saying I would do those trouble but you have to allow me to fairly compete for those jobs they're not going to take $5 an hour under the table how do you stop people Big Shot businessman from hiring cheap illegal labor is there going to be something in the Trump nobody's doing it right now it's not happening business does they get away with it some guy is running a restaurant in Chicago he's in charge of immigration right now he'll call up somebody said get up here I need a dishwasher and pay him nothing you know how it works another asking is Trump gonna stop that yes and I'll tell you why instead of raising an under illegal immigrants who do the jobs if the restaurant jobs you just described Chris why don't we raise the pay that's what these employers should do so they should do well they should they should make it more competitive in their own places of business to attract and retain American talent by the way if you are a legal immigrant and you you have every your going to compete with American workers for those same jobs but I agree with you completely if what I hear you saying that it's time for us to also hold account will be these employers who are violating the law you know the conversation before Donald Trump came along about fairness was always what's fair to the illegal immigrant the question now is what's fair to the American worker but also what is fair for us to ask of employers are they just meant to sign up for you verify enroll in that program and wash their hands clean of never having to verify people's credentials or pay what's fair and let that American work with repeat for those jobs the other thing I just wanted to throw in there cuz you and I would relate to this given our backgrounds this president also has committed himself to expanding educational vocational technical opportunities that's huge because not everybody is college material and not everybody should run to a four-year college and be faced with a mountain of debt and very few job prospects so and get a skills certificate you're in high school go and become a plumber a welder a carpenter and then you will have those jobs waiting for you in this country let's talk about voter fraud and there's two issues here let's talk about that there's a general problem if there is one and there's always some irregularities we hear about irregularities once a while but this idea of three to five million people in this country illegally voting I just looked at the math there's 11 million people in this country illegally that's wrong but there are only about ten and who are voting age so that means that if five million people voted illegally from the country who are Niemann or I have a right to be in this country that meant that half the people in this country illegally a voting age voted that's as high a percentage Kellyanne as people here legally voting the numbers are just so far out of imagination five million people came into this country illegally and voted boy they must be patriotic they want to vote but the numbers don't add up do they to you as much as that it's people do you think those education rules the way you describe them is very different than the way the president looking at him in this regard he is talking about the integrity of the process he's talking about no no he is please I've discussed this with him let me speak he talking Chris about one-person one-vote integrity and he wants to make sure that in our registration process people who don't qualify to be registered who registered and they're illegally who are dead and should have been purged from the rolls a long shot are we going to decide all the time that's why there's less have to be read scrubbed although he spent the weekend or Spicer's done a good job I think certainly so a great job and he's out there saying he's being asked by Jeff Zeleny you know a political do you believe the president I mean everybody's getting forced to this truth test you believe three to five million people voted came out into the country illegally and voted I think these numbers are very hard to defend Chris this is why the president today called for an investigation and I really credit him for doing that because people constantly in politics and on TV constantly say things and have no no backup no forward-thinking measure to either prove them and he is called for an investigation so let's have take hold tomorrow at the retreat in our hometown of Philadelphia the House and Senate Republican retreat where the president is going to address them he's going to talk a little bit further about the mechanisms he wants to put in place to at least investigate in the integrity of our assumptions good luck at the retreat and good luck with Sean Spicer and the whole new operation I think we need communication and and you're a good part of it Kellyanne we're going to disagree about that three to five million number because it doesn't square with the number of people here the president wants an investigation we should have any message when there's no when there's no election a minute look the guy one family and squarely crest there's no trophy no blue ribbon for winning the popular vote I think we found that out although all the graphics on MSNBC said no no road to 270 so he won he won big no works you know I'm when I'm with you or night because you know what we don't count hits in baseball we count runs thank you very much Kelly you can wake up next we'll get reacts to what we heard tonight from Kelly and Conway the hardball roundtable is coming here next and you're watching a hardball right now where the action is [Music]

Seize Five Things Quickly | Mufti Menk | Advice To Muslim Sisters
my beloved sisters and daughters i am really honored to be a part of this beautiful annual get-together of the graduates who are working not only in the field but those who have graduated working in whatever way you are working may allah bless you and may allah protect you may he continue to use you to serve the deen granting you success in this world and the next when we say this world obviously your work your sustenance your families your spouses and inshallah your children those who do have those who don't have inshallah you will have and those who are not married inshallah we ask allah to bless you with spouses spouses who will be the coolness of your eyes amen my beloved sisters and daughters something we need to know is as muslimeen the first thing we need is sincerity of intention i'm sure you've been hearing about it for quite a few days so or should i say for the sessions that you've had so far sincerity of intention is one of the first and prime qualities we need to have what we do we do for the sake of allah everything you do bear in mind you have a grave that you are going to be lowered into and that is if you are lucky unlucky sometimes people disappear without a sight and i'm sure you know that sometimes people you know their families know that they have died but they have no remains of theirs because either it was a huge explosion or something else had happened we ask allah to grant us at least a good death amen so sincerity of intention there are many ways of looking at it and i'm sure we've already studied so many different ways but i want to mention one way of looking at it and that is whatever you do in life bear in mind you have a grave that you are going to be lowered into that's it once you bear in mind you have a grave you are going to be lowered into your contact with allah becomes powerful you know your maker allah the one whom you are going to return to allah his hands has the mercy that you and i are searching for and looking for so my beloved sisters and daughters let me tell you it is important everything we do let's tell ourselves i am only here in the world for a certain period of time i have a slot you know what is the meaning of a slot a little time frame like now they've asked me to speak seven o'clock to 7 30 i have a slot of 30 minutes i will walk in at 7 i will walk out at 7 30 subhan allah in these 30 minutes what do i need to do as much as i can without wasting your time and without you wasting my time it is an amana it is from allah gone are the days when we were children we used to play games and waste our time and so on no room for wasting time the reason is i do not know if i am going to live this evening nor do you none of you know if you are going to return home after the seminar not even one wallahi we might hear of some who've disappeared you might hear of myself who disappeared it's possible so there is no room to be wasted no time you know when people play football they play cricket they have a specific time or a specific number of overs what is their job their job is to try their best to score as much as they can in the specified time if they are just wasting standing with the ball talking to each other sitting doing something looking at the crowd that's a pretty woman oh that's a decent guy all that would waste your time your aim and your focus is supposed to be to score one goal after another as much as you can even people who already have a score of 2-0 in football for example they will try to make it higher three four five am i right so this is why remember life is not a game it is a reality we are only drawing an example of this game so that it can be brought to us in the interim allah says he has brought us into existence in order to test us you might have heard so many interpretations of that let me give you one of the different interpretations today when allah says i have created you to test you wallahi it is so accurate i tell you why every one of us we have problems we have difficulties we have financial struggle we have sickness we have a problem at home we have a problem for example sometimes with our children with our neighbors with something else a problem at work a problem here a problem there nobody has a life free of problems nobody that means those issues are placed planned by allah in order for us to live a few years to pass them one by one test after test after test after test and the hadith says when allah loves someone he puts tests in their lives if he does not love someone there is no test for them the reason is they have not sometimes yet entered the arena of the test do you know what the arena of the test is let me give you an example you see kuffar allah says [Music] do not let the luxury lives of the kuffar deceive you it is just a pleasure for a little period of time after that they will be serving their sentence and they will have their punishment so don't look at the kuffar and say how come these are disbelievers they are enjoying their life they are having every luxury that they can think of yet you don't understand they have not yet entered the game they are not in the school we are in the school so we will be writing exams every year [Music] do they not see that we test them every year once or twice major tests then they still do not repent to us they are still not from amongst those who take heed that is allah so it shows us quite clearly that once you enter the school you have examinations those who are not at the school do they have exams the answer is no they can enjoy they will have sleeping up to 12 o'clock no fajr no when i say i have to read fajr for some is a problem but for others they know it's part of my iman may allah make us from those who realize and who cherish the value of fajr and who enjoy getting up wallahi my sisters my daughters it is something that will pay back completely the minute your eyes close in death it will pay you back completely and this is why we see people who've died in this world they've passed away those who were better looking than us those who are more powerful than us those who had much more in authority than us those who had much more in wealth than us those who had more children and much more happiness in the world when they died where did they go did they take their children did they take their looks did they take their wealth did they take anything absolutely nothing they went down what helped them whatever they were given whilst they were alive if they converted it into a currency that is valid in the hereafter it would have helped them if they did not do the conversion then you can bring your pullers they are not going to work here they will ask you for us dollars am i right you enter some of the businesses and you want to give them a russian ruble or you want to give them one of those chinese rmbs they call them they will not accept them they will reject them they say no we want u.s dollars or we want rans sometimes am i right otherwise they won't accept it so you are foolish if you have a whole pile of something that people don't know but it's a value valuable item according to you the people don't know its value similarly in the akhirah your health your wealth everything was wasted completely it's not going to come but how you used it when you had it converts it into a currency known as deeds d double e d s deeds a deed is a currency that is valid when you die a deed is a currency you need to amass whilst you are alive in order to be able to use it when you fly overseas meaning when you die so to speak may allah grant us a deep understanding so this is why when you have time any minute that you have wasted wallahi you've wasted your currency because allah says through the blessed lips of muhammad sallallahu alaihi salaam five things you need to seize them quickly before they are overtaken by another five your time you have allah will take it away you will become occupied one day then you can sit back say hey i had the time why didn't i do this and why didn't i do that whose fault is it you were there you heard the hadith you knew that time is not to be wasted i want to achieve let me go i will do this course i will engage in this da'wah i will do that school qualification i will do that business i will go to this madras i will go to that masjid i will meet with that person don't say okay tomorrow okay the next day never leave today's work for tomorrow you can do it now get up and do it here and now that is islam those are muslims these are the qualities of the true believers no wastage of time number two your young age we are young alhamdulillah young meaning we have the energy we have the capacity use it a day will come when i might not be able to walk whilst i can let me do what i can whilst i am able let me continue to do things whilst i am young i will do things that i will not be able to do if allah gives me age to see an old age subhanallah so that is got to do with what with your youth similarly your health today i am healthy tomorrow i am not it's part of the test of allah it is a guarantee that allah brought you into the world to test you because if there was no test why would we get sick why would we have problems why would we have difficulty these are challenges and the winner is the one who knows how to answer the challenge for example when you go to school it's a beautiful school you want a high qualification when you sit for the examination they will ask you very very difficult questions why not because they want to make your life difficult but they want to see you have learnt everything you've covered the syllabus you know absolutely everything what is it that we can ask you in order to prove that you now know and you appreciate what you've learned so this is the same with islam when you have been given something do not waste your time make sure that you you understand what i have here is going to go it's definitely going to go allah gave me the health tomorrow my knees might ache may allah grant shifa and cure to all those who are sick and ill in any way i mean so my sisters my daughters let me tell you your health it is going to go don't say oh you know sheikh is dooming us i'm not dooming anyone i'm saying it is going to go it has to go your mother's my own mother everyone their health is no longer how it used to be before am i right so now why should we just sit now and wait when we have the health and say okay now when i'm over when i was young i should have done this and i could have done this and this is what i should have done no you are hearing it now do not waste your time well if you waste your time you need to know one thing there are millions of others just like you and even in a more difficult situation than you who are making good use of their health and their time and their youth and so on so i spoke about your free time use it correctly you have free time use it correctly you have health use it correctly you have been given young age use it correctly allah has given you for example wealth if you have some money use it in the in the correct way learn to budget that is a problem we have not only in this country but now across the globe many countries do you know that in our country we i actually have an advantage over some of the powerful countries the reason is if you take a look at the usa or britain or some of these first world countries you find a lot of people they are living in a beautiful house they have a lovely car but guess what they have not paid for anything yet nothing do you know that it's all on loans subhanallah and the they earn for example a thousand dollars two thousand five thousand whatever they earn and ninety percent of that if not more goes in payment for what payment for the house payment for the car payment for this they are living far higher than their actual capacity but the system has enslaved them in such a way that it makes it fair seeming to them that this is the way things should be done whereas in this country if someone has a phone it is theirs fully paid up for if someone for example has a car it is theirs it is paid up for it is their own motor vehicle they owe the bank zero if someone has a little house no matter what type of a house it is it is theirs in a lot of cases and if they are paying rent they at least know look i'm paying rental for this home but they owe nobody any money at all nothing they're it's their own subhanallah so and if we do owe people a few owings here and there it is not as big it is not as large as what others owe you know when they lost their jobs a few years back in one of the countries so many people committed suicide do you know why because what happened was something strange when they lost their jobs they could not pay for their houses their cars they could not pay for their uh furniture in the house the televisions and everything else so the first month came they got warnings second month came they were kicked out of the house because the man of the house wanted the money and because it didn't come they then said okay we will now sell the house and get our money back and the same thing happened to everything else including the house and sorry the car and the furniture and everything they were left on the street without anything what could they do yet they were leading a life just the previous day driving beautiful cars doing so many things showing and flashing my sisters my daughters never ever be tempted to flash things that you have been given even if they are your own in islam did you hear that that is the difference between us and the kuffar out there who like to flash and show things every day a new pair of shoes every day a new top every day a new scarf ever i'm talking of some people who want to show their things every day something different every day a new scent a new this a new watch a new that is the trend they are struggling they are suffering they have no happiness they have no contentment their husbands they are changing them like they change clothes it is sad but it is a reality why because they really are people who are after the world in such a way that they are enslaved by it is that a muslim woman no you are happy with the same thing you have you can wear yours your clothing your cloak you just wear it neatly put it on be happy with the four pairs of clothes you have the neighbor who has 400 pairs of clothes which were perhaps from wherever we don't even know let them live their own life we do not need to lose our sleep by following them in the same way that they have lost their own sleep what this means is when we compare our lives with others thinking that their lives are rosier and sweeter we don't understand the fact that they are not sleeping at night will also come to us the fact that their marriage is about to break will also come to us so it comes with a price you want to lead a simple life you will have simplicity happiness contentment look after your children correctly to fulfill whatever duty you have if you are going to work go and come back responsibly and so on the minute our eyes turn and the minute we have role models besides those who are good muslim and muslim what will happen we will have to we might end up getting what they got but the baggage comes with what is the baggage their problems we will also have the same problems up to now we have not faced those problems because we know and we understand allah's plan so remember something when allah has blessed you with wealth use it wisely learn to budget do not waste do not be extravagant you do not need what your neighbor has never you do not need what another sister or brother has no all you need is what you precisely need for yourself and your children and whatever else is there you know your budget you know how to slice your piece of cake you do not need to have a big cake when you have not afforded it allahu akbar may allah help us i am being honest and i am speaking of real current problems my sisters my daughters let me inform you the last thing that is mentioned in a hadith of rasulullah when he says sees five things before they are overtaken by five situations is the issue of life we are living let's seize it engage in tawba ask allah's forgiveness you know we are human beings there are two ways of sinning two major ways of sinning one is to sin in defiance of allah and the other is to sin out of human weakness if a person defies allah they cannot call themselves what is the meaning of defiance when someone says okay allah said it is haram to do this i'm going to do it and let me see what allah does is defiance none of us would do that because we are believers am i right we are believers we believe in allah and his rasool none of us would do that because we believe in allah and his rasool but something we need to know is out of human weakness if someone says allah has did this allah has said this is haram for example but you know i was weak and i fell into it in that case there is hope allah subhanahu wa ta'ala will have mercy on you you ask allah's forgiveness you regret what you have done you turn to allah you promise him not to do it again and you try your best to stay on that straight path once again i tell you every sin comes with baggage what is the baggage it comes with some heavy baggage it brings about depression and stress and problems and issues and loss of sustenance and so on you know the hadith of rasulullah he actually says [Music] according to the hadith of the prophet a person loses his sustenance the barakah in his wealth because of the sins that he or she is committing so we should not do that the owner of risk is allah allah says it is allah who is the giver the sustainer he is he is the all-powerful the strong the mighty who is he he is allah so we worship allah and allah alone my beloved sisters and daughters another very important quality that we need to instill in ourselves the quality of patience forbearance what is known as sabor sabha is something you need no matter what you are doing in your life you are married you need trouble you are not married you need sober you are teaching you need support you are not teaching you need support you are employed you need sovereign you are not employed you need support everything you need support what is the meaning of sabbath you restrain yourself from that which is haram you endure when it comes to that which is uh obligatory upon you and at the same time you will have to bear patience or you will have to surrender to the decree of allah when something you do not like has happened but it's allah's choice some you know i i'm sure a lot of you have had family members have passed away what could you do you could say we belong to allah unto him is our ultimate return and we can perhaps read the dua or say something that you know for allah belongs that which he has taken that which he gave in the first place and everything according to allah is with comes with a specific time it comes with an expiry date i have an expiry date and so does everything else including the battery in this torch right now subhanallah but when it comes to allah subhanahu wa ta'ala his decree is final i cannot have a say in the date of my death may allah subhanahu wa ta'ala grant us forgiveness the day he takes us away so bear patience be forbeared do not want to break a marriage just because of one problem you have two problems you have five problems you have so what others are suffering 50 problems they are still working on their marriages remember this your marriage will not be rosy why it's a test from allah marriage is not just a honeymoon i need to go and start saying right that's my man and this is what it is and i'm walking around in town everyone must see me smell me look at me and my hair needs to be different every other day that's not muslim it's a fact people are wasting 35 dollars a week on their hay yet they cannot even afford to buy food for their own families this is what's going on in this country what life people are ready to buy nails to add on top of these nails of this but when it comes to the evening they will say there is no food in this house this is what is happening allah it's a fact and this is the issue we are people who are content consider it a test from allah things will flash on the side things will flash on the side never ever turn to what is flashing lead your real life that's all fake let me tell you sometimes people ask well why is it that allah subhanahu wa puts on on the sides of what i have so many different temptations and he says this is a temptation that's a temptation stay away from it well if he wanted me to stay away from it why did he put it there in the first place that's what some people ask well i can tell you when you know the answer in mathematics still they give you multiple choice you know what is multiple choice they glare the wrong answers in your face in order to test you you know the right answer put a kick on the right answer for example if i were to tell you 10 multiplied by 10 a 1 b 10 c 100 d 1 000 what would you say subhanallah these are wrong answers you can't say if you wanted me to answer it right why did you give me three other wrong options you can't say that because i'm testing you i know you know what is right so now i'm showing you everything that is wrong you are supposed to be a believer powerful enough to be able to say i'm putting my tick on the right answer here it is it is answer number c tick there you are now you have one so don't say oh what about all these other people forget about them they are ticking d they are ticking a they are taking b at the end of the day when they collect all those papers and there's the kitab comes allah says those who are given their results in the right hand the book in the right hand they will be so happy so proud they will say oh here read my book see see my results look at it beautiful those who are given in the wrong hand the left hand they will say we wish we were not even here today we wish we were dead those are the ones who are taking on the wrong answers but it is our duty to try and reach out to them to correct them to remind them to tell them to tap them to say you know my sister this is what islam is all about do not spread islam in an embarrassing way or in a way that is not befitting a muslim spreading the goodness of the deen we want to spread islam but in a good way live as a muslim they will see your happiness they will see your contentment your concentration on matters that is that are supposed to be within your concentration so concentrate on these things be patient everything you do in life one day it will go wrong besides your link with allah every day you do in life one day it has to go wrong allah will test you you know you come to work every day at eight o'clock okay for example there will come a time there will come a time when something happened to the combi something happened to the transport something happened here you were late it's and how people deal with it is all your tests you were not late because you wanted to be late because allah is now testing you hey today you will be late nothing of your choice when you go to work they will shout you they will scold you they might cut your salary they let's see what you do it's part of your test that's life that's the challenge so when you come if you start swearing shouting hating you have lost the test you ticked on the b instead of the right answer now if you come back you apologize you say look i'm very sorry they say we're going to cut your salary try to explain to them in a nice way and try to say something in a good way still they don't agree say okay no problem what can i do you know i'm inshallah next time it won't happen then you ask allah oh allah guide these people they are cutting my salary nothing of me but you did not cause a commotion one day they will realize and understand ah this person here you know what they are honest one day after 10 years 15 years you may get a promotion something may happen you might not get it but when you go down into your grave allah knows what happened that is your jannah allah knows what happened so it was never between us and them it is between us and allah all the time remember this these are the qualities of dua these are the people who who will enter jannah with ease and i haven't even spoken of many more qualities but this quality of sabbath is something very very interesting another very important quality my sisters my daughters read and educate yourselves listen to things today there are cds that are readily available dvds there are so many different formats of uh being able to learn the knowledge please try and do something try and continue learning until the point of death learn and learn and learn more learn from the source try and get what is right continue going a b c let's get right up to z and even beyond subhan allah and we need to constantly learn never ever think i know enough and this is it now i'm a big sheikh or i'm a big sheikha or i'm a great imam or whatever else it is and that's it i just need to stand up and issue decrees and decisions for everybody else no continue become humble in your knowledge you know sometimes people have wealth the best of those who have wealth are those who are humble you agree sometimes people have knowledge knowledge comes with exactly the same arrogance as wealth same 100 knowledge and wealth are two things that are gifts of allah both on either side they can either come with humbleness or with arrogance the best person with knowledge is he or she who is humble humble humble you mix with people you interact you talk to them like they are your bosses finished they don't need to know you are some big shot they don't need to know that when you when it comes to delivering the goods you deliver them but otherwise you are an ordinary human being like everybody else because knowledge is actually an amana just like wealth is an amana how you used it how you achieved it how did you disseminate it how did you give it to others how did you benefit others with it all that test from allah remember this it is something powerful seek knowledge and continue seeking knowledge do not think i've graduated it's fine now i go back to my home area and i do things no keep on learning your phones that you have with you a lot of you have internet access and that internet access you have on it different pages find out what are the good pages where can i read how can i improve my knowledge how can i increase so tomorrow you can spread the deen be kind to your neighbors and to everyone else they will see the goodness in you they will be inclined towards the deen purify your own knowledge today we read quran okay so sometimes our quran we need to understand no matter how well you read your quran it is like flying in an aircraft the minute you stop in mid-air your plane will drop you need to continue flying in order to move on that altitude you need to continue flying the engine needs to be on constantly in order to be able to move forward the minute you turn off the engines doom you come dropping the same applies with your quran with your amal your deeds your quran you need to improve it every time don't think i know i was first in class no no no the standards however they were even if they were the best without that constant improvement there are certain things i have learned and continue learning now and con and i'm so happy to allah subhanahu wa ta'ala that allah has blessed us with this so this is why continue learning every time wherever there are seminars wherever there is something to be done make sure that you try and take part as as much as you can and make sure that allah subhanahu wa that you ask allah subhanahu wa ta'ala to continue using you and i for this deen because remember one thing if you are going to turn away and you are not going to serve the deen allah does not need you and i allah can replace you with someone else so sometimes we have this feeling i mean i'm going to leave me i'm going to do this i'm not going to go there i'm going we have this feeling it is also one of those wrong answers that keep flashing to us don't tick the wrong letter not at all make sure you understand if i am not in the picture allah will replace me with someone else one day after 10 years i'm going to see someone else doing a better job than me and i'm going to regret in my heart to say i was here one day why didn't i continue working and doing good and so on and improving and whatever voluntary whatever deeds they are may allah bless us all i have spoken for exactly 29 minutes and i will cut there we ask allah to bless you all and to bless us the
The All-Loving

Brain 5- Primary cortexes
- Now, we are going to zoom into a specific-- two specific locations on our cerebrum that have unique and important functional significance. Are you ready? First we have to identify a couple of landmarks that are important. One of the landmarks is this longitudinal fissure that is the fissure that separates my right and left hemispheres of my brain. So this longitudinal fissure is going to give us kind of an orientation when we are looking down to find these other structures. The other one that we are going to keep track of, and this is an anatomical location is a structure called the central sulcus. And the central sulcus is in the coronal plane. Like it separates anterior and posterior of the brain. It's perpendicular to the longitudinal fissure, and it is the mark that separates the frontal lobe from the parietal lobe. Now, you have a specific bump anterior to the central sulcus, a specific anatomical structure in the frontal lobe which is this one right here and it's called the precentral gyrus. Does that work for you? It's a bump. It's a gyrus. It's precentral. It's in front of the central sulcus. So guess what this one is? It's the same thing. It's a gyrus, but it is the post central gyrus. Now, those are anatomical structures. Those are bumps on your brain that we could find and identify. The precentral gyrus is the most posterior bump on the frontal lobe. The post central gyrus is the most anterior bump on the parietal lobe. Does that work? So you can see how these are just anatomical structures. Now, why do we even care? Well, they have functional significance. The post central gyrus is the location for a functional area and it is called the-- do you remember, first of all-- do you remember what was the purpose of the parietal lobe? Like, what was its overall function? It was, like, a general sensory zone. Not for specific senses, but general senses. So in the post central gyrus is this functional zone called the primary somatosensory cortex. And that's the name of the functional area found in the post central gyrus. So primary somatosensory cortex. This is where the majority of general sensory information goes. When you feel something crawling on your arm. That sense of sensation that you feel, that information is going to travel through afferent neurons to the spinal cord at the level wherever it's going to go in. and then it's going to go up to your brain, and if it's deemed worthy of consciousness, like if it's a spider or something, then your brain is going to be like, dude, you better pay attention to this. And it will go to the primary somatosensory cortex in the postcentral gyrus of the parietal lobe of the cerebrum. What? How crazy is that? Guess what is in the precentral gyrus? This is a primary motor cortex. Primary-- primary motor cortex. And that's somatic motor information. The primary, like-- it's actually interesting that they are so close together. So in comes some sensory information of-- just from general senses. The spider is crawling on my arm. My brain processes it. Says, yeah. Its worth of consciousness, sends it to the postcentral gyrus which contains the primary somatosensory cortex. I process that and go, yeah. This is a spider. I'd like to whack it. And so then the information travels to my primary motor cortex in the precentral gyrus of the frontal lobe of my cerebrum. And that portion of my cerebrum actually process the information and says, okay. We're going to need to activate the deltoid. We're going to need to activate the biceps and we are going to need to get the pectoral muscles in there for the big whack. And it coordinates the actions and sends the message out to activate all of those folks and they get activated and you whack the spider. Or you can be really kind and catch it in a cup and carry it outside which is going to activate a whole other set of muscles. Again, all coordinated by the primary motor cortex. If that is like, what the hell is she talking about? I have a visual that hopefully makes everything crystal clear. Right? Doesn't that clarify everything? This is one-half of your primary motor cortex. T his is the motor one. Look. You can see. You can compare. Motor is anterior. Sensory is posterior. Now, what is this? all this is is showing you where specifically if you have to have some motor action of your face, the processing or the neurons-- the information is going to come from this specific part of your primary motor cortex of your frontal lobe of your cerebrum. What? Look at that. Your tongue has a whole zone that's specifically, like, if you need to lick the spider off of your-- that's kind of disturbing. I wish I wouldn't have gone there, but I did. I suppose if you need to do that it's going to be this part of your primary motor cortex that's going to sent a message to your tongue to make it happen. We've got a bunch of swallowing stuff going on here. This is all motor. Look at how much motor information goes to your hands, to your thumb. We can actually have a significant amount of control of our thumb. Your torso, your legs, not so much. A little bit more with your feet. But you can see that, yeah. The thumb, the face, we've got a lot of brain real estate dedicated to running those structures. What about the sensory land? What about that sensory land. Shall we go there and look. Look at this guy. What? Do you-- oh, my gosh. How cool is this? So this is where general sensory information is coming in. We care a lot about our hands. General sensory we've dedicated a lot of real estate to making sure that our hands are sensitive, can receive general sensory information. Lips, what? Teeth? You've got to be kidding me. Tongue? We've got a lot of sensory information so go ahead and start licking things to tell about them. Not so much sensory information from your digestive tract. You know, kind of important. Dude, really? Yeah. Worthless. Like, why even spend any time. Hands are much more sensitive than other body parts. How fantastic is that? Okay. That is-- those are the structures that come from the telencephalon. Now, let's look at the diencephalon.

Globalization—Reflections of a Practitioner | Michael Sohlman
around the phenomenon of globalization is as far-reaching and multi-dimensional sometimes confused as in my own country sweden which is always rapid in following american trends in different matters i don't know whether the discussion has reached the heights is here in this country as it has in stockholm recently where there was an acrimonious exchange on this subject between the leader of the christian democratic party on the one hand and the archbishop of sweden where they were attacking each other for being dishonest but at the same time the extensiveness and sometimes vagueness of the notion is not always helpful in understanding the processes at hand and at the outcomes at hand as an example of how fashionable and omnipresent the buzzword was mentioned earlier the notion of globalization has become i would like to tell you the following episode from this summer this summer my children i we went to the beautiful swedish island of gotland in the midst of the baltic sea in order to bike in the harbor of bisbee the medieval hanseatic capital together with some friends we went to a quite simple trattoria-like restaurant and ordered today's salad to our great and pleasant surprise we were served an absolutely delicious dish the gastronomic quality of which by far surpassed the setting of the place we started to discuss how this marvel was possible and then somebody in the company came up with the obvious answer it must be the globalization the answer however was similar to the answer given by a lawyer in one of the innumerable american stories about this profession that is perfectly accurate and absolutely useless in economic terms the good we were enjoying was the result of trading goods in particular high value per unit of weight goods like spices but the salad was also a function of imported intellectual property in the form of production production method the recipe if trade in goods and services influenced the supply side in this transaction the supply was stimulated by the demands supported by the purchasing power and culinary sophistication of the crews on board the elegant yachts in the harbor branding swedish danish german polish and estonian flags in this sense the answer contained many of the elements what is covered by the notion of globalization at the same time all this the trade in goods services and tastes or preferences is not to put it mildly a new phenomenon even if the development of transport technology and communications particularly of course the internet have changed the volumes and intensity of the trade flows by several orders of magnitude we can be pretty sure that spices and other goods valuable enough were traded already in the centuries when the roman and arab coins were brought there and which now are regularly unearthed on gotlam as many economists have pointed out the degree of globalization quote unquote was as great or even more extensive in relative terms at the beginning of last century as they are now for example investment flows from great britain reached a level which exceeded the kind of laws we registered today in the at the beginning of the last century not only mobility of capital was higher due to the lack of capital controls but the mobility of labor was much greater too as the migration waves from europe to this country show and the international movement of ideas go further back in history back at least to the renaissance to a certain extent i suspect that the very wide and encompassing application of the term globalization is not very helpful because it bundles together different developments and problems which are better analyzed and hopefully solved independently for example the same level of income per capita can be associated with different levels of environmental consciousness or even stress or degradation the same is true for the degree of cultural autonomy where philosophical or religious attitudes can make the respective country more or less resistant or open to globalized trends the homogenous and uniform character of the globalization process is also often overstated even when it comes to relatively easily measurable phenomena like trade flows i give i will give you an example that trade flows are sometimes analyzed by the so-called gravity model which is built on the relatively simple and common sensical thought that bilateral trade here we have it that bilateral trade flows are determined by the number of people in the two countries their respective per capita income and the distance between the two countries if we will be able to you have the national income of country j you have per capita income in that country and the same for the other country and the level of income is positively correlated with trade the the uh per capita income can work both ways and the distance is uh is uh of course a negative factor this simple model explains why sweden's trade with neighboring norway some 5 million inhabitants is as as large as with the united states some 270 million inhabitants you can make this model more refined by taking into account common trade regimes common or similar languages and whether two countries share a border if one takes the average degree of integration and trade independent penetration in the ocd countries as a yardstick it's possible to get quite interesting even surprising results now one is the oecd average when these factors have been taken into account gdp gdp per capita and distance and what is interesting to see here is that the if you take eu as exporting block to nafta the ratio of trade integration is below the ocd average and the same goes for if you take nafta as the exporting partner to the eu the the level is far below one whereas uh the trade integration between uh not asia nafta is is much higher uh and uh and surprisingly enough the trade integration between eu and asia is uh is higher than than the average and this um rather surprising at least for a swede result that the transatlantic relations are not as intensive as the other connections in this triangle um the reasons for this is uh is unknown to me but one suspect would be the trade diverting effects of the regional trade integration in the eu that these trade diverting effects are so so strong that they dampen the trade-creating effects of the growth of gdp to a measurable degree this is also an example of the fact that globalization is far from as homogeneous and all pervasive as is sometimes claimed and that a lot of globalization is quite regional or even local in character coming back to the notion of globalization i think there is a problem that so many different issues have been brought together under one single heading this makes it easier to perceive and depict something which in itself is a positive and even highly desirable development as a deterministic almost totalitarian march of the history-like process and therefore easier to vilify and demonize with all this with this all-embrace bracing brand or set package of political ingredients which you either have to take or leave it's easier to for example see environmental degradation as a necessary and unavoidable consequence of trade liberalization which of course is not the case even if i am fully aware that my view will never have any wider support i think that the word global ought to be or have been reserved to denote phenomena which are truly global that is covering all of us here on earth for example the global warming about which i will comment later for most other developments it would be more meaningful to apply terms like international economic political technological and or cultural integration all of which have a long and varied history with your permission from the vantage point of a small traditionally highly internationalistic country i ventured to suggest that the great attention devoted to globalization is strongly influenced by the fact that the us world's biggest economy is undergoing great structural changes at the same time as it's becoming more integrated into into the world economy through the increased shares of trade to gdp and large flows of foreign capital into the u.s economy the ensuing social changes even if they are predominantly driven by domestic factors tend to be associated with the opening up of the economy and i could add that the protection it pressures one can see despite the low level of unemployment in the u.s is something that open up often appears as a consequence of a high or overvalued exchange rate turning now to economic integration as such there seems to be few relationships in the economic sciences which have been so thoroughly demonstrated as the link between trade and the growth of wealth beginning of course with adam smith but that this matter practice by far precedes theory i do not intend here to describe the economic history of the world from the phoenician trade system around the mediterranean sea some three thousand years ago to our days but in the light of the current isolationistic trends and also to underline that the phenomena covered by globalization have a long history it could be of irrelevance to see what role the rest of the world played for a country like sweden if you limit yourself to the modern history of sweden and disregard the great tradesmen the vikings and start with the very foundation of the modern swedish state this actually can be said to have begun with an operation on the international capital markets in the first quarter of the 16th century gustavosa the grandfather of gustavus turned to the hanseatic league in lubeck in germany where he borrowed in order to finance his war against the danish king and it was the victory in that liberation war which created the swedish state as we know it today we might add that as many later investors in emerging markets the gentlemen of the hansa made a bad investment not only were they never repaid but in addition they were squeezed military militarily and politically out of business by the young upstart they had helped in the 17th century trade played a decisive role in financing this swedish short-lived period as great european power sweden was the major european exporter of iron copper as all warring parties in the 30 years war 1618 to 1648 used these metals the demand for these goods grew proportionally to the action on the battlefields thereby replenishing the swedish treasury in this way the swedish army could be considered as a self-financing machine not only trade with domestic natural resources was of great importance at that time economic integration also took the form of foreign direct investment and transfers of technology through dutch investments into the mining industry important movements of people in the form of bologna experts in mining and metallurgy also contributed to strengthening the swedish economy in the 18th century modern international scientific interaction began with the creation of the royal academy of sciences in the 1740s and sweden was plugged quote unquote into the global quote unquote intellectual system which developed within the framework of the enlightenment with prominent swedish scientists like linears the botanists celsius who created the centigrade system for measuring temperature and sheila who discovered oxygen when sweden became ripe for the industrialization almost a century after its beginning in britain the underlying driving forces were the expansion of the system of education in the 1840s that is heavy investments into human capital to to put it in economic terms and the very pervasive liberal reforms of the legislation governing business and industry in the 1860s which created a new growth friendly system of defined property rights but foreign direct investments also played an important role in the form of very large british investments in the construction of railroads across the country in the event the british to a certain degree shared the fate of the gentleman of luibek the british had extended long-term fixed interest loans denominated in swedish corner the real value which was strongly eroded during the first world war an ensuing wave of inflation looking at the scientific and technological fields at the beginning of last century sweden was strongly dependent on germany the uk and increasingly on the u.s from around 1870 to 1970 sweden registered the highest average annual growth rates after japan and was turned from one of the poorest to one of the richest countries of europe and we've been talking about developing countries one could be reminded of the fact that at the beginning of the last century the life expectancy and child mortality in sweden was at the same level as in present-day tanzania and the driving be force behind this whole development which i've tried to to sketch here is is the increasing openness of the economy and today of course uh sweden seems to have recovered some economic health and uh we are very proud that we we stockholm is the internet uh capital of europe but again a very decisive factor here is the two factors that young swedes understand english quite well and second that they have to a higher degree than than their european colleagues established contacts in silicon valley but an open economy the of the small size of sweden is of course vulnerable to the shifting trends of demand on the world markets which lead to exogenous shocks to production employment and incomes it is therefore not very surprising that the level of social expenditures and publicly organized welfare systems have tended to be higher in a number of smaller european countries even if this trend has been most pronounced in the nordic countries the development of an ambitious social safety net has been a necessary corollary to the policy of trade liberalization even if the extent and design of the welfare system as it looks today is subject to criticism from the academic community and to a lesser degree controversy in the political arena the main points of criticism concern the unnecessarily high deadweight losses due to the high tax wages and unfocused distributional effects of the transfer system as a whole i ventured into this very brief overview of sweden's economic history in order to put the traditional swedish and for that matter my own positive attitude to international economic integration against the background of the profoundly positive experience we have had of the policy of openness if the proof of the pudding is the eating of it then internationalization has been delicious at least to us swedes from this position of strong support for an interest in further liberalization in the international economic field the present state of affairs at the level of international economic diplomacy and negotiations is highly unsatisfactory in several respects the remarks i'm going to make could well be put under the heading borrowed from aksalux the remarkable prime minister and chancellor of the treasury who served for more than 30 years in the 17th century under among others gustavus adolphus and i would add gustavus adolphus wouldn't have half the size he has in swedish history if he hadn't had uh axel luksan shanna as his prime minister ooks and shanna formed the society and the economy in a profound way that left traces in sweden until our days and he was a major player at the top level of european power politics in a letter to his son at the end of his life with all his experience accumulated he wrote in the globalized language of that period that is latin which means you don't know my son with how little wisdom the world is governed firsthand witnesses as such a first matter of great concern is the slow pace if not stalemates in the international trade field symbolized by the breakdown of the seattle conference of the wto and the lack of progress to launch a new round of negotiations now what factors do explain that trade liberalization which has been an important even decisive factor behind the growth of the oecd uh country's economies for most of the post-world war ii period has come to a halt if one will believe the mass media is to be credited or blamed on the anti-globalized protesters in the streets of seattle in itself it's a remarkable and regrettable fact that extra parliamentary groups or ngos should be allowed not to express their views that's obviously their right but to to deroot the the process of negotiations and decision making by governments that at least in trade weighted terms are predominantly democratically elected however on closer inspection the seattle meeting was doomed already before it was started and this for several reasons the main reason was that the differences between the positions of the main actors were too great on almost every major issue even within the group of rich industrialized countries which had been promoting the eurogarden round within the gat in the 80s the divergences were very deep on issues like rules for investments competition as well as regarding the degree of linkages to be made between trade and environmental concerns before the meeting in seattle the quad that is the united states eu japan and canada had been publicly pushing for liberalizations in several fields but were totally unwilling to discuss issues that are politically sensitive at home like agriculture textiles or anti-dumping practices the collapse of the meeting was also facilitated by insufficient preparations in advance here it's instructive to compare with the relatively successful uruguay round in the mid 80s the differences and distrust between the major actors were also very great but that the initiatives by some smaller free trade-minded countries like switzerland and sweden an informal group of delegations the so-called g-47 uh was formed in geneva which discussed and prepared a draft mandate for the launching of the uruguay round without that ground work the punta deleste conference which started the uruguay round would have have gone the same way as the seattle conference or vice versa had seattle been better prepared it could have been more successful in any case the result of the collapse in seattle has at least three effects first a strong impression of defeat for the trend to liberalize has been created and this after the collapse of the miai negotiations at the ocd dealing with rules for investment second the negotiations are or rather talks which have been started on the so-called built-in agenda or leftovers from the uruguay round in the field of agriculture and services will be deprived of momentum as they lack the the political will and they lack deadlines and specific goals third the absence of political pressure from the multilateral system uh leads to to greater difficulties in reforming the eu agriculture policies before the enlargement of eu to the candidates uh countries in the eastern europe um i will i will comment this in a moment in the resumed trade talks in geneva it's necessary to try to show real political will to make progress this could be facilitated by a number of confidence building measures in the agriculture and service field but there is also an urgent need to start a building a common ground between the major players and that must be built on some kind of reasonable compromise where one would include both elements of a total approach linking all different areas together in one single undertaking but at the same time taking into account the difficulties of the developing countries to to enter on such a platform finally a general remark about the intellectual logic of the negotiations within gat earlier and now wto it's built on an activistic system of thought namely the mercantilistic view that the ultimate good is to export whereas imports is something bad a lowering of tariffs or elimination of impediments to investments which lead to cheaper and or better goods and services in your own country are presented as sacrifices concessions which have to be traded against other countries concessions as even liberalization in isolation is profitable for a country this logic amounts to saying that i will stop shooting myself in the foot if only you will stop shooting yourself in your foot intellectually and from from the point of view the level of development of science this is as if an international medical conference today would recommend diagnostics of human patients by inspection of the livers of birds or frogs like the organs used to do in ancient rome the reason for this absurdity in the trade field is of course the need for governments to get sufficient leverage from the gains in one sector in order to break down resistance to change by vested interest in other sectors now this brings me to a subject which i think has not been given sufficient attention and that is the real costs of special interests from the point of view of democracy special interests are of course absolutely legitimate as democracy is about among other things freedom for all citizens to organize themselves in different groups and constellations in order to promote common ideals ideas and interests at the same time there is a risk that such organized groups will exert a disproportionate influence where the more or less legitimate fight over resources is transformed from a zero-sum game into a negative sum game for the society as a whole my conviction is that what we are witnessing today is precisely very costly negative some outcome as a result of the influence and political power of certain special interests i know that the question of campaign financing has become a serious issue in u.s politics but out of courtesy i will confine myself to the experience with special interests we have in the eu but the most striking example of the influence of special interests is of course the common agricultural policy almost half of the budget of the eu in large amounts directly extorted from the consumers through artificially highly high regulated prices are spent to support the farmers allegedly in need of support even if there is no statistical evidence showing that the farmers on average have lower incomes than other groups rather the country however as the subsidies directly indirectly are tied to quantities produced about eighty percent of the subsidies accrue to the twenty percent of the farmers with the highest incomes and with well far above the level of the average an increase of food prices has a regressive distributional effect among consumers too so both in consumption and in production the result of policies is that the unevenness of income and wealth are reinforced this perverse effect however comes at considerable cost a recent study puts that cost a slightly less than one percent of gdp per year considering that the active farming population of the eu has shrunk to a couple of percents of the total the level of subsidization is very considerable but the help to those working on the farms does not reach them as the subsidies tend to concentrate on the least mobile factor of production in this case land therefore the farm subsidies mainly contribute to maintaining or increasing the land rent to the benefit of bigger land owners but this costs do not stop here you have to add the strongly negative effects on an on the environment which yagish bhagwati already mentioned of the high intensive farming techniques in europe with high inputs of fertilizers and pesticides which are driven by the high level of subsidization and on top of that the developing countries and certain industrialized countries with comparative advantages in agriculture are both denied access to the um eu markets and subject to the devastating effects of the eu dumping of its surpluses on the world market this is particularly negative for the growth potential of a number of developing countries of course agricultural protectionism was one major issue and a stumbling block in the uruguay round in the 1990s the whole round almost broke down and was saved later by the blair house compromise which marked a certain standstill in the subsidization war between the major trading partners more profound liberalization was postponed to the next round of negotiations that's the one which broke down in seattle this um this table shows you however that the agricultural lobby in the eu has been quite successful in maintaining and even increasing the level of subsidies in terms of producer subsidy equivalents which measure all kinds of support the farmers receive as percentages of the total revenues from agriculture product production now this is a rather strange measure in itself if i would have hundred thousand dollars in income and i get a subsidy of a hundred thousand i would say i got hundred percent but that would be a too high figure so instead you have pec which says i have a fifty percent of my total income is is uh is uh a subsidy uh so um actually uh what we see here is uh uh during the 90s the the subsidization level even measured in this benign way has has increased in the eu and further at present the cap i think i have a a diagram which uh shows the relative levels of of subsidization or again in pec terms uh in different countries and areas and from that you see that united states is somewhere between 20 and 30 pse's which is then the difference is actually larger the the difference is between 50 subsidization in the u.s and almost 100 percent in in the eu the top levels are attained by by japan iceland and norway for some reason um but the costs do not stop here at present the cap is the main impediment for the entry of the democracies of the central europe into the eu the problem being particularly intractable in the case of the largest of the candidate countries poland the political problem consists mainly of the fact that the successful rent seekers the farmers in the present eu do not want to share their pie with the newcomers within a given cap budget or within the present price level the eu politicians however are not willing to or able to devote more resources from taxpayers and or consumers which would accommodate both the old members of the farmers club and the new members and finally the peoples of central europe with per capita incomes far below the eu average and accordingly spending much higher share of their incomes on food are less than enthusiastic to have to see their food prices soar to the present eu level at present outlook is for either the enlargement being substantially delayed or the candidate states being forced to accepting terms which would be be not only very onerous in the present but would also prejudice the future growth potential of the economies at large by binding resources in agriculture when they could come to better use in other sectors the third and rational alternative a reform leading to a dismantlement of the cap and the transition of agriculture to the same rules of the game as for other sectors of economy does not seem to have a very high probability now i would like to give you another example of ooks and china's wisdom which brings us from the morally questionable to the realm of the outright absurd i'm thinking with particularly both ridiculous and damaging policy and jagdish already mentioned it which is the result of lobbyist pressures that is the eu protection of bananas the proclaimed and alleged aim is to help poor growers of bananas in the old french and british colonies in the caribbean in order to achieve this goal a complicated system of quotas and tariffs has been set up in order to protect these producers from the more cost-effective competitors in primarily central america however the result is that the price to the eu consumers is considerably increased but only a small fraction of the foregone consumer surplus does turn up as an increase in the producer surplus of the eu banana producers actually different estimations put the cost to the consumers at around 2 billion us dollars after which something like 150 million us dollars reached the protected growers which means that it costs 13 and a half us dollars for the consumers to transfer one dollar to the growers the major part of the rest lands as a nice monopoly windfall gain with a limited group of european wholesale traders who managed to get allotments of import quotas the cost due to this way of subsidizing the probably quite well-off owners of wholesale trading companies is again only part of the total bill to get the grand total you will have to add the protracted legal battle in the wto between the eu on one side and the u.s and the latin american banana exporters on the other side a special panel of the w-2 found the u.s scheme was against the wto rules and ruled in favor of the u.s and and others but that did not stop the eu from continuing its banana policy then the u.s took counter measures against different kinds of eu exports which added further to the total cost of the policies through higher costs to the u.s consumers and lower income for certain europeans who have nothing to do whatsoever with bananas at the political level the effect is to create antagonism between the two major trading partners with a souring effect on the whole climate for trade negotiations and finally the political legitimacy of the eu the representatives of which are constantly proclaiming that the u.n union primarily is a legal system loses quite some credibility when it so openly disregards the rule of law within the wto framework an international treaty the union has acceded to another blatant example and i have to use the uh the expression by jeff sacks uh yesterday it's a factoid this is i haven't read it i've gotten oral reports about the following story and the example of uh of the wisdom with which the world is governed and that's the case of eu tobacco policy in bulgaria in the beginning of 1990s as you might know the eu has within the cap a program for subsidizing tobacco growers thereby stimulating the production and supply of this good at the same time the eu the enlightened part of the eu like your surgeon general has found that tobacco is hazardous to health and not as smart and fashionable as it was in in the late 18th century with this nice picture was made so they they have supported campaigns and regulations in order to limit the consumption and demand for this same good which is the production of which is stimulated so the eu steps on the gas and and on the brake at the same time as this does not square quantitatively and also due to the lower quality of the european tobacco it has problems in the eu marketplace the ensuing surplus is then dumped on the world market now bulgaria has a very long tradition as a tobacco producer and its main market was the soviet union and the soviet bloc when the soviet union disappeared and the marlborough man and his likes victoriously rode into every major russian ukrainian etc city the main market of the bulgarian tobacco industry almost disappeared but as if that had not been enough the domestic bulgarian market was flooded with eu surplus tobacco when the bulgarians wanted to take protective measures on this account the imf did not allow them to do that the result and the result was that a very tough adjustment had to be performed by the bulgarian tobacco growers many of them belonging to the turkish minority thereby contributing to the ethnical tensions in bulgaria in the event many of them had to emigrate to turkey this kind of policies have to be put into into the context of the enormous tasks facing a country like bulgaria when it comes to transforming its economy and creating a bible democracy on the ruins of the soviet system it belonged to and also seen in the context of the relative economic capacity to alleviate the necessary downward adjustment of the tobacco industry in the rich eu and in the impoverished bulgaria respectively still another case of lack of wisdom or rather successful lobbying by special interests is the restrictive measures applied towards russian exports due 1990s the russian for all practical purposes soviet economy did not have many civilian goods with higher value added which could be competitive than the world market the few they had like aluminum chemical fertilizers cement and seamless steel tubes were however almost without exceptions subject to different trade restrictions preferably at the in transparent and particularly damaging kind like qrs and anti-dumping duties strangely enough it was precisely the last percentage of total supply to the oecd markets of these goods that came from russia that was considered to destroy the price formation and this at the same time as a lot of political capital and financial resources a lot of rhetoric were invested by the same western governments which had put up these barriers in assisting the transformation of the russian economy from the militarized service structure to one which could be better adjusted to the demands of the civilian domestic and international market i've given you some eloquent partial examples of the protectionist policies in the eu the total cost for some 22 sectors in terms of foregone gdp has been estimated by professor patrick messer of the uh institute for political sciences in paris the seance pool to be to order between six and seven percent of gdp or between thirty and fourteen percent of the output of eu goods every year according to his results the average cost of saving a job by protectionist measures is some 230 000 us dollars which is 10 times higher than the average wage in the sector's concern these are of course very high figures which the general public is not aware of then his study also shows it is forthcoming it's not published yet he shows that much of the wanted globalization in the trade field in 1990s is highly overrated the tariff reductions negoti negotiated during the uruguay round have been more or less offset by the introduction of anti-dumping measures of the of some kind from the swedish experience i can only point to the fact that when we entered the union we had zero anti-dumping rulings now we have something between 80 and 19 and they have been established by the the eu commission coming back to mr last figures of six to seven percent of gdp they do not include what i would like to call the political multipliers which you have to include into the bill for the protectionist pleasures what is the opportunity cost of a further delay in the integration of of western and central europe and the ensuing low lower growth in that part of europe and what are the costs in terms of greater political and military in military instability in the whole region and the consequences for our ability to solve the truly herculean political task of integrating russia into the world economy in a not too distant future and looking westwards i've already indicated the unmeasurable but quite real costs of european protectionism in terms of prospects for regaining the momentum for cooperative transatlantic strategies in the trade field as i mentioned i've been limiting myself to eliciting some aspects of protectionism in the eu for those free traders in this audience who have been thinking of parallels in the us i can give reassurance according to professor mr la the level of border protection is almost the same in this country even if its domestic negative effects are dampened by the livelier competition among the producers in the domestic market compared to the conditions in the eu so there is a target waiting for you too and uh both jeffrey sachs and and uh no both uh joseph stiglitz and and jagish bhagwati have have mentioned a number of examples here of course the facts i've been describing to you can be useful including into the present discussion about the poverty in the world it's obvious that the rich countries would be able to reallocate resources to increase the official development aid by reducing the extent to which the public budgets or other instruments are used to transfer money from the poor or poorer to the wealthier even a fraction of the cost i've quoted would be sufficient to double the level of official development aid which today as an average in the ocd is approximately 0.3 0.3 percent of gdp and that's in its turn is is only four tenths of whatever of the official u.n goal of 0.7 it's also striking fact that one does hear precious little from the anti-globalizers about the effects of the rich world's protectionism on the poor of this world their credibility would be considerably enhanced if they care to devote somewhat more attention to the distributional effects of special interests at home first before blaming the liberalization of trade for all possible negative phenomena in today's world as we all know charity begins at home now once you realize the role and influence of the special interests the next question is what can be done to change things and principle one can distinguish between three approaches the first one could be termed the conservative one and consists of limiting the public sector's role in the economy as much as possible thereby limiting the domain over which the special interests are able to wield their influence in this nightwatch state only the basic public goods are delivered through the government and even if special interest might have an influence on these functions too the damage would be limited the liberal in the european sense of the world word in that model you try to contain the rent seekers by strict regulation of the integrity and the independence of government officials combined with transparency in this way excessive abuse of political power would be exposed to the general public and politicians called to order by the same public a third model could be distinguished of the scandinavian but also other social democratic regimes where uh where certain special interests like the trade unions have or have had such a broad membership basis as making them willy-nilly interested not only in their particular group interest but in the general interest too the government strategy has been in those cases one of including the special interests into the decision-making sufficiently as to influence them through modification of their priorities of course what you see in the real world is a combination of the three approaches my own experience is from the agriculture reform that the swedish government launched at the end of the eighties and which was later undone completely as sweden entrant into the eu however the reform is still of interest as it demonstrates that it's possible to implement a far-reaching reform in a thoroughly subsidized sector mainly by mobilizing the general public in contrast to the other even more far-reaching agricultural reform of that period the one implemented in new zealand the swedish reform was not enacted out of compelling macroeconomic reasons sweden could afford as it does now to go on spending huge resources on a perfectly irrational policy but out of rational reasoning and the general increasing understanding for the need to deregulate different sectors of the economy a consensus was created about the broad lines of liberalization as the main elements of this reform must constitute parts of any reasonable future reform of the cap in the eu it might be worth mentioning them here the basic idea behind their form is is mirroring or equaling what jagdish said if you have one goal you must have one instrument the policy we had and we have now in in the eu is that you the special interests they put forward a whole bunch of different goals and have one instrument high price and what were the the different uh goals well uh national safety of supply uh we uh we were preparing for a uh the last war as it were i mean a perfect isolation or a situation of war so we had uh we had uh in in the in the in in the framework of the national defense planning we had stocks of food the problem was that the stocks were enough for three years complete isolation whereas the military defense was calibrated for some two to three weeks so the only logical conclusion was that when the enemy had occupied us we would we would kill him off by having him eating himself to death now this of course we could show was nonsensical the income goal targets we already i already mentioned uh we demonstrated that that there was no even if we wanted we couldn't steer the income of the labor in that sector because that would depend on on productivity and and relative wages in other sectors if if income was pushed up people would flow into the sector and lower the the real wage and what was left was an inter in the main components of the reform was an internal liberalization we couldn't go so far as as tearing down the tariffs walls because of the the dumping on the world market that would absolutely eliminate the the swedish agriculture in a free mark world market a sizable part of the swedish culture would survive anyway but we couldn't go that far but we we took away all the price regulations internally established a free pricey market we maintained the border protection as i said we tried to create the even playing field between agriculture and other rural activities and and then we had the element of paying them off an adjustment payment over a five-year period and then if if the general public the voters wanted to maintain the countryside open yes by all means you could set aside money for that on market terms you could purchase these services from the farmers thereby keeping up the the environment and and or the landscape and of course this this reform would lead to a lower level of subsidization and therefore an increased environment through lower inputs of pesticides and fertilizers the main method here to fight the special interest was to to show the the evidence on each particular point but i have to admit that was not enough you also must have politicians who are sufficiently devoted to the general interest and prepared to fight for it and that we had at that time so i guess the main conclusion is that one one important step you can take is to vote for people into political power who are declaring their solidarity with the general interest and not with special interest now finally i would like to turn to those issues i indicated the beginning as truly global in nature namely the environmental problems which do affect all of us on the earth this earth among the more dramatic problems in this field are the depletion of the ozone layer and the global warming or climate change each of these areas have been treated by the international community in a number of conferences from the analytical point of view these problems are cases of negative environmental externalities or inversely if we think positively reduction of pollution as a kind of public good which has been dealt with at the national level in different ways mainly by regulation taxes and subsidies or establishing property rights which has led to the cost of the damage on the environment being internalized in the process of production or consumption example of these policies are regulation of car exhausts and trade in defined emission rights for example the first environmental threat on a global scale to be dealt with relatively effectively was the depletion of the ozone layer after years of controversy around the scientific evidence a broad consensus was established that indeed the cfcs were having the dangerous uh effects that controversial scientists like paul crewson mario molina and sherwood rowland were predicting and for which they were awarded the nobel prize for chemistry in 1995. the preparedness to go from words to deeds gained momentum and the montreal convention in 1987 was ratified by a large number of countries this convention is considered to be a success with relative rapid implementation of the goals to stop the use of ozone destroying substances several factors contributed to this result the general public was made aware of the threat in a relatively clear way the diplomats succeeded in designing a treaty with both sticks and carrots for poorer countries and potential free riders and last but not least even conservative cost benefit analysis showed the present value of the benefits by far exceeding the cost well you don't are probably not able to see any of the figures here but if you trust me they they show you that the the benefits are widely greater than the cost uh to to stop the use of of these substances the cfcs and these calculations were made or the the the results became off exposed after the event uh even more favorable due to the technological development of substitutes for the cfcs so um that's one of course important reason for the relatively swift action by the international community on this this account for the greenhouse gases which contribute to the warming of the global climate a convention was elaborated finally in kyoto in 1997 but here the political support has been much more lukewarm and one has not yet reached the two 55 thresholds that is 55 percent of both industrial industrialized countries having ratified and 55 of the emission quantities being covered which are stipulated in order for the convention to enter into force the slow progress in modifying the influence of man on climate is explained by several circumstances first the factual assessment has been more controversial and or uncertain as there have been natural fluctuations in the climate over the very long history of earth uh here we have a uh time horizon from a year thousand or less and one sees the the great fluctuations which are more or less natural you also see the the trend upwards at during the last century um and these fluctuations are are prompted by both external cosmic influences as well as terrestrial phenomena like volcano eruptions over the last century the warming account amounted to 0.6 degrees celsius after which 0.3 to 0.4 takes place in the second half of the century two clearly warmer periods are distinguishable 1910 to 45 and from 1975 to the present day whereas the earlier periods could be fitted into models built on natural fluctuations the latter is not possible to explain without entering anthropogenic factors or man-made factors it's also clear from the examination of the the carbon dioxide concentrations in the antarctic ices this is this the time span is 400 000 years um it's still that the earth has not held so high levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere for for this whole period as it does now in a shorter and more fathomable time perspective the last 150 to 200 years the level of co2 has risen from 270 to 280 parts per million of that volume to some 370. we are there now these are our data from from investigations of isis the the however the projections of the effects of this are very uncertain and that has of course contributed to the the slower progress on this account and also the cost-benefit studies which again are almost impossible to see but the longer short of this table is that there's a wide margin between the very wide span between the different cost benefits results and there are a number of uh factors which primarily the discount rate that we should discount the future which influences the results the latest projections however give a wider span of possible or probable rises in the temperature than previously this is a result from the international panel on climate change if the earlier span was a rise by one to three and a half centigrades to the year to 2100 the span now is between one and five centigrades the consequences of these temperature increases are very uncertain of course for sweden the prospect of a somewhat warmer climate seems for example a quite attractive thought particularly in comparison with the scenarios for africa and southern europe until which of course would suffer a lot by higher temperatures and this seems nice until the spectre is a vote of the gulf stream being deflected by the arctic ice melting in a way that would lead to a new ice period in scandinavia my reading of this latest assessment is that on balance the benefits of measures limiting the greenhouse gases ought to have increased and one would hope that the thresholds of the kyoto convention will be reached at the follow-up conference which starts in at the hague next month the environmental problems which the international community is facing is only one aspect of a more general need to establish institutions and rules of the game for the international interaction which would take care of the externalities both negative and positive if the environmental externalis externalities are of negative kind positive externalities or global public goods can be illustrated by the establishment of clear property rights and our standards for the economic interaction for example in the international financial markets within the nation states such rules of the game have been developed by local or national governments at the international level the closest one can come to global authority is the un system but as we all know the power and efficiency of this system is weak and the capacity of enforcement is limited by mainly the unwillingness of nation-states for a number of good and some bad reasons to give up their sovereignty even in extreme cases of infringement of the declaration of human rights one of the rules of the game the authority of the union has been severely hampered by the refusal by major countries to give the un a greater role behind the resistance to resistance to global governance you can find both the fear that the more strict implementation of urine principles could affect the freedom to suppress or maltreat parts of your own population after all despite this all globalization large parts of humanity do still not live in democracies and in the democracies the general public is not too enthusiastic about putting the bill in terms of human and financial resources in order to give the u.n the necessary clout i might add at the risk of being impertinent that the u.n is a slightly odd club where the wealthiest member of the club attends all the lunches and dinners and even some of the club outings but is constantly delayed with paying the annual membership fee the presence well [Applause] the present um system is a very extensive organizational structure which you can study on the united nations website but in order to convey a more realistic vision of the reality i've chosen this symbolic vision of the global government under construction that is the tower of babel as peter berger saw it in 1563 the u.n system is vast but the decay as the case was that the tower of abel people speak too many languages without understanding each other or more precisely the different parts of the system are very poorly coordinated as far as i can understand it is more a rule than exception that for example the united nations general assembly or other its committees discuss matters of trade investment or globalization without having any dialogue or interaction with the specialized agencies like the wto sometimes the conditions within the specialized agencies have been such that you would need the combined literary capacity of a niccolo machiavelli jonathan swift and the franz kafka to make full justice to what was going on and i we have heard something of this today i think one example clearly not the worst but difficult enough for taxpayers to understand is the constant problem of establishing a good working climate between the imf and the world bank in in operational terms located as they are not only in the same city but in the immediate vicinity of each other the blame for the poor government and this has already been underlined of the the global system and the u.n system should not primarily be put on those institutions as such but on the owners that is the member governments and their inability to coordinate their policies the secretary general kofi annan who is one of the most impressive of the statesman's who have been entrusted with this almost impossible post is waging a reform campaign which one can hope will be successful but even so the idea of a government a world government is clearly something for the very very long run but the need to address and cope with the problems like the global environment or the stability of financial markets is there today what can realistically be achieved in order to strengthen the international system in the near future one necessary line of action is to enhance the coordination between the existing organizations fora and institutions and establish clear property right rights as it were or demarcation of between the relevant agencies another way to put it is that the principle of comparative advantage should be applied also to the producers of global public goods within the un system with such an approach environmental questions would as also jagish bhagwati has said would primarily be dealt with by by the united nations environment program and perhaps the world bank uh trade policies would be the main worry responsibility by the wto and if i in the financial area it would be the imf the bis bank for international settlements and the financial stability forum which would be responsible whereas questions relating to corporate governance and the fight against corruption come under the oecd and the world bank this division of labor is nothing new in principle but the new element would consist of enhanced cooperation in implementing existing or developing new rules through simultaneous moral suasion or political peer pressure in several fora free riders could be stimulated to comply with the rules of the game in their respective area in this ganging up process the financial agencies clearly have a special weight at the same time it's very important that the distinction is maintained between the standard setting bodies and the other human bodies to take an example it's very important not to broaden the wto with new rules which would open the gates for more or less disguised protectionism or to avoid the risk that imf would be further pushed into the direction of wider foreign policy making with limited relevance to the fund's basics tasks in the financial and balance of payments fields in the environmental field a major instrument for international norm setting have been the respective conventions much could be said about their lack of sanctions and therefore low efficiency but they constitute a basis for further political pressure in order to get greater compliance and for the operational policies of the development agencies so if one should conclude on a positive note what can one who one what one can hope for is a gradual development where existing agencies and bodies are made more efficient and cooperation between them is enhanced with a system of international rules producing global good public goods is gradually expanded instead of one single political legal and administrative edifice like the tower of babel one would see a pattern where the different configurations gradually come closer to each other and more and more solid ground is created in conclusion or to sum up the different dishes i have offered you on this marvelous board of different reflections i've tried to put the notion of globalization into a historical perspective which makes its ingredients less new and less homogeneous homogeneous and therefore perhaps less scary the globalization offers enormous positive possibilities for international political economic technological and cultural integration but how these possibilities are realized is still to a very high degree in the hands of the nation state or at least those states with which have functioning governments which are not all states on closer inspection the trade integration during the decade of globalized liberalization turns out to have been considerably less far-reaching than generally perceived and within the current set of policies i've tried to point to the impressive potential for increasing welfare in both rich and poor countries you will find if you care to look at what the special invested interests have been able to appropriate for themselves the really global problems in the stricter sense of the word concerns the environment on this earth here i've concentrated on the ozone layer and the climate change but there are other pressing or rather depressing issues like the decreasing bio diversity and the persistent persistent organic pollutants which have to be dealt with in order to solve these and other international problems a strengthened system of governance is needed but at best we can only expect gradual progress and to conclude in a way which is conform with the the ethos of the profession the dismal scientists the risk is with collective action that the action will be too little and too late thank you very much [Music] [Applause] for one last time we'll gather up here for some questions if you have questions you have questions you can write them on paper and give them to our ushers oh once again we ask that you as expeditiously as possible those of you who might wish to submit a question for a speaker that should deliver that question to one of the ushers picking those up and we'll get the q a portion of the program underway promptly so as not to be further delayed in conclusion here's the first question in 1991 while in sweden our family there informed us that sweden was the largest importer of bananas in the world that weekly banana boats arrived in yodeburg to satisfy the need of swedish people for bananas is this still true and where do you buy them well um i i i can't possibly believe we were the biggest importer in the world but per capita consumption was uh was the highest because germany is also a big banana eater and well we get them this system is operated now so we get both both bananas from well mainly we get bananas from from not from the caribbean supported the countries but they my point is that this is a very transparent deal which confers great great rents on on people who are not supposed to be supported but we still have bananas in imported to sweden yes i was asked to fill in the time so let me just say i was fascinated by the uh the last part of what you were saying when you indicating the multiple needs that we have to manage the international community and how we need to do that in somewhat separated ways obviously i'm not saying that's not right i'm also going to express concern that unless there is some integration among these then the one they may operate at somewhat cross purposes and for example you were indicating that the trade organization should deal only with trade issues and then the environmental concerns would be dealt with by international conferences so if we just bring these two together does that mean that the only aspect of environmental concerns that could play any role in trade thinking would be those that had been become internationally accepted through these conferences so that it i think you are saying that that that trade issue should not take account of environmental concerns except under very special circumstances is that is that your view well i i my point is uh almost the same as professor bhagwati was making that one should try to devise one instrument for one goal and for each goal and the role of wto is to liberalize trade and possibly establish then what is pos acceptable rules how to deal with with other issues but the the standards etc should be set by those working with environmental problems within the unep for example or ilo when it comes to workers rights and so on but i mean it's so obvious that that these issues are pushed not only for for the good reasons but also for protectionist reasons those other other goals and and are you saying that it is because they are pushed for protectionist reasons that they should not be considered in trade negotiations exactly exactly even though so that we shouldn't push them for good reasons because somebody else might push them for batteries you should put push them in the appropriate forum as it were of course there should be some kind of coordination or an improved exchange of information between the the agencies that's one point yeah i mean but uh i mean the the division of labor is a good principle uh even in this field but uh division of labor works better if there is relative equality in power among the various groups at the present time that's not the general impression with respect to the trade organization has more power to push its goal than the others do to push their goals in general is that not the case well uh professor bhagwat is an expert on this i mean the reason why you think wto has more power is because of the regular you know because of the dispute settlement mechanism but there's no reason why i mean that's only enforcing whatever is agreed to so i think what mrs oldman is basically saying is but there's a necessary interface obviously the organizations have to talk with each other like on the question which some i think joe stiglitz was you know raising about the multilateral environmental agreements since many of them do have trade sanctions clearly there could be a potential conflict with the wto rules so that would have to be negotiated together naturally again on you know values related to uh you know like dolphin tuna shrimp turtle those those in turn i think i better negotiate how to deal with them like the kyoto agreement so clearly some thinking would have to go be going back and forth but once you've done that you know the the principle of comparative advantage applies to massive amounts of things right so the basic thrust of the governance would be what mr solman is saying with necessary you know talks interactions including parallel talks with civil society and so on going on question that may cross the boundaries of the two topics that we have just been discussing is there a connection between agricultural production and the prevention of the environmental problems you discussed does changing the cap contribute to or alleviate environmental degradation oh yes very much so the um if i this was some time i worked with these questions but uh if i remember correctly in in serious production you make something like two tons per hectare in the united states and in in comparable circumstances in europe uh production is pushed up to the level of 8 10 tons per hectare through the input of huge quantities of fertilizers and and pesticides and this then leads to to an over fertilization of rivers and lakes and the sea and also has other environmental effects and a lowering of the intensity should benefit the the environment uh quite a lot in particular in central europe and the continent after decades of liberal social government are there any poor in sweden do they have a political role are there any poor in sweden well it's a relative concept there are people who who well the poor are the the immigrants which still have not got jobs and are waiting for jobs that's the main main part uh single mothers are also another group which has been under certain pressure during the uh the first well during the most of 90s we have been through a first economic crisis and then the recovery and here some people have fared less well but in relation to the kind of of poor we're talking about today we don't have it living standards of poor in the developing world nobody's starving etc please comment on the outside capital purging and purchasing interest in the auto and copper industry please comment on the outside capital purchasing interest in the auto and copper industry what does that mean the auto industry that's volvo and sub and uh they have been purchased by u.s companies or the the car part of the volvo and and the same for uh saab scania well that wasn't what swedes would have expected 10 or 20 years ago but that's the fact of life and and it seems to work quite well we are specializing the the car swedish car industry is sort of retreating to the higher levels of value added by by being very big in the in the truck construction business instead volvo and scania both of them i i would i should add from an economist's point of view sweden when we talk about poor and the distribution of incomes uh we have the the most equal genie coefficient i think among the industrialized world that has changed somewhat over the 90s it's slightly lower or higher i don't remember the figures now but due to these developments higher unemployment for a certain period of time we're still i think on the very top of income equality well on that note i think we'll close the q a for this session unless there are some final summary comments from any of the rest of the members of the panel [Applause] yes thank you all you've been a remarkably loyal audience i'll remind you those of you who are attending the banquet that begins at 6 30 this evening it's in the evelyn young dining room and dr ezioni's talk will begin probably about 7 45 and if you'd like to join us even though you don't have tickets for dinner you're welcome to come to the dining room at 7 30 and we'll have a place for you to sit thank you very much you

Unlocking the Power Within: Coping with Anxiety - Tip #4: Release and Let Go
now self-reports from the general public have revealed venting is very or extremely effective at elevating stress so if you're anxious it might just be the best option for you now when i didn't share my feelings or my emotions and they were trapped that wasn't really helping me out and it wasn't helping my anxiety for default this also decreased my communication with others and i started to feel lonely now this got worse and then this led to depression so i would say a venting session would be extremely helpful the solution to my problems was to talk let me explain how welcome to the fourth episode of this series tips to dig anxiety from the root when everything else feels like it's going wrong on perception shifter and in this video we're gonna speak about let the stuff out and never keep it in thinking that you can handle it now our mind wants to keep us safe so it will always show us any future threats for this reason we sometimes find it hard to cope especially when you faced a negative event in the past all things aren't going as planned now many of us do suffer from anxiety once in a while and this is crucial for our survival as anxiety it keeps you on your toes it motivates us and it also protects us for what is yet to come and now from this we begin to prepare in what we need to do here are some tips that will help you with your anxiety the awareness of the power of talking now many of us haven't even heard of this before talking talking about what why should i talk they haven't felt better once they've even spoken most of us think that that couldn't really be the solution to all my problems could it now and most of them seek other advice maybe because it is kind of hard to talk with people and we do feel kind of embarrassed but then at the same time you get also the information that oh no you can do this or the other with some other advice and we try and do that but what talking can give you nothing else can give you that in your life we just don't know how to now many of us have took on the advice that yes let's start to talk but now the question is how do you talk a lot of us do talk about what has happened what might happen or what is currently happening but is that the right way to talk we hesitate to talk who wants to show that they're weak that is a no from the get go now the other issue is who has the time to talk we're all busy within our work and our family that who really has that little bit of amount of time to then talk to someone okay so you want to talk and you're okay with talking but then who wants to listen who has the time to listen to you we're all busy but then even if someone does want to listen who wants to listen to negativity don't think anybody does when you're telling someone how life is i don't think they want to really hear that because they probably want to hear how good life is as their life might be just brilliant other issue we have is that we just assume a response now when we have an idea fixated within our mind that when i do talk to this person this is what the person's going to say this stops us from speaking because what's the point of talk to someone if we already know what they're gonna say then the talking's done now here's some solutions that we can look into together now many things that we do in life does come with a little practice even when we were born and we started speaking for the first time i'm sure you didn't make sense but as you grew up and you spoke more and more you had that practice now and now you've been able to speak fluently and i'm sure now a lot of people do enjoy talking so the first time we do something doesn't always be our best time now i can't tell you enough how much power this has when you talk to someone openly freely now this is the only thing that helped me if i tell you the truth and it still does help me so now i do it naturally i know when i need to do it and it just happens you know i've practiced it so many times now that i exactly know how to do it how to talk of course so what tends to happen is i get a thought something that's associated with something or i just get a thought someone's told me something now the mini that thought has come within my mind and now if i do any thinking around that thought that how could this possible why did this happen anything negative around this and do that overdrive thinking for no reason but then my mind has gone into that thinking now i need to release these emotions because now it's making me feel uncomfortable this has now affected my mind this will start to affect me physically i could start to feel like i can't breathe i could start to feel issues around sleeping maybe i don't feel like moving maybe i don't feel like going anywhere speaking to anyone so i do start to then start closing up within myself my heart could start pumping really fast so a little thought or something that someone has told you or any sort of news can affect you mentally but it can also affect you physically as well now when this has affected you now you're trying to pick up other advice from other people and they're trying to tell you calm down take deep breaths um go to the gym go for a walk listen to some music very good good copy mechanisms but they are really good when you're already in a good place so then you don't go into a bad place for me anyway the only thing that works for me is talking sharing these emotions on how i'm feeling that's the best thing for me i've noticed and it's so simple i'll just pick up the phone to anybody that is available that i want to speak to and i've said look this is the news that i've heard this is how i'm feeling and so forth and i'll just let myself go i'll start to then feel better straight away i wouldn't need to then go out and do something to then change what's going on within my mind because if i tell the truth any other activity that you do will only defocus you from the problem for a little while and then that problem will come back and a lot of people have experienced this a lot of people have gone and done other things but that's the only thing still on your mind why because you haven't let it out now you can speak to somebody but you can even write it down if you're not that sort of type of speaker as yet i've never wrote anything down in my life in that sense and i've heard a lot of research around it that does help my own experience is me talking and making myself feel better so we don't know how to talk we don't know how to share these feelings and emotions so let me tell you how so when we talk it's not just about has will or it's happening right now it is more about this has will or is happening right now is making me feel that's what it's more about rather than saying this happened and she or he did this or that might happen and she or he might do this or this is happening currently and she or he is doing this it's more about this is happening or will happen or has happened and this is how i feel and this is what i have done and it's all about me what i could do or what i should do or what i could have done or you know what i'm doing right now so the feelings and the emotions are more important than anything else so if we are feeling lonely or we're feeling sad or we feel angry or we're feeling maybe even sick about something that we've heard or you know someone's done or we've done um it's all about what's happening within ourselves regardless what's happened even if someone's done something bad to you it's not about them because what's going on in their mind and your sharing about that isn't going to release your emotions because we'd never know what's going on in anyone's mind but what is going on in your mind and how you feeling it what you have experienced that experience now is trapped within you so you need to let that information out you need to tell whoever is in front of you on the phone that this is how i'm feeling i'm feeling lonely feel scared um you know this might happen that might happen that's fine but then how are you feeling about that this or that might happen or is happening now even if it's affecting you not just mentally but physically we need to share how it's affecting us physically as well so if it's you know if you can't breathe or if you're having trouble sleeping or um you know you just don't feel like being around anyone or whatever it is physically that's impacted you or your health you need to share about that as well now even when we are talking out loud we'd be able to hear ourselves or if you're writing it down you'd be able to see it so when we are talking out loud and we'll be able to hear ourselves you'll be able to see that is this correct information or is this just me just making things kind of up that ain't my reality or that hasn't happened or might not even happen is this just my brain looking into things that my mind is trying to stay away from or scared of so when it comes out in the open you'll be able to see more clearly and then you might come to a conclusion after that thinking you know what really that's not what it might be but it's just stuck in my mind that it might be this so you've let it out now so you'd be obviously feeling better because once it's out it's reality because you've said it because you've said it that's reality because okay what's happened is not reality but because you've said it that is a fact that you've said something it's out now in the open now you'll be able to see that is this the reality of the future or the past or is it current you'll be able to match that now because it's out whereas when it's in your brain consistently and it's just looping maybe it's not going anywhere you can't tell the difference between what's you imagining things and what you're making up for what is the actual reality of something so yes we do hesitate to talk now the quicker we understand that it's okay not to be okay and to suss out that you are weak and to show that you're weak the quicker you do it the better it is for you because the longer you keep it within yourself the more worse it will get for you over time and like i said if you start to de-focus yourself on other things i think that you'd be able to handle it by yourself it's not gonna happen because there is no way you can handle it within yourself we are made like this to share information with each other for that then that compassion for each other for that then uh for us to empathize with each other you know we we are there for each other we are built like that to be there for each other and we need to use that tool as much as we can so not showing your week is going to be a bad decision it's totally understandable we hesitate because we don't want to show that we're weak maybe our work maybe to a family member and it's totally understandable because we want to show that we are strong but this is strength this is using your strength in the right way because the more we speak to someone the more stronger we will get and we feel that the more we hide away our weakness the more stronger we look but we're not actually strong we might look strong but we're not actually strong within ourselves so that's that's fake and we feel that we want to be strong or look strong for our family or our work but what we don't understand is that we confess as our mental health is the top priority of everything else within within our life now if we don't have our mental health we won't have nothing else because then we won't have our family we won't even have a job it's best to keep our mental health in check and get strong originally rather than faking it and then losing it all yes indeed the easiest option is to forget it all and leave all the negativity behind you and think that you want to be more positive and you know try and get some affirmations in or look into addictions as well maybe drinking bit more maybe smoking a bit more and thinking that yes we will just suppress these emotions um but they are only for the time being i have a video on suppressing emotions gonna check that i'll link it up at the top but yeah you don't want to be doing that you don't want to be suppressing your emotions because all they do is they come back worse so what you want to do is 100 do not hesitate to talk talk it out talk it to someone and like i spoke about in this video how to talk use that use your emotions when you talk now negativity isn't something that you want to run away from you want to keep negativity and play with it like a ball it's simple when you learn how to play football you can only get good at it then but if you run away from playing football you will never be good at it it's that simple so if you want to play with negativity you need to play the game if you play it and you come out of it and you score a goal then you'll be able to always play with it you'd always be able to come in and go out when you want but if you've never played it before you'd never know how to play with it so unfortunately yes we do need to go low to then go high now the more effort you put in to go low the more higher you would go so how do we get people to listen to our negativity what you do is you keep it short and simple whether you're talking or you're sending a text message to someone about something and then telling them to give you a call back when they get the time so in that way you're not ringing them straight away you're not disturbing them in whatever they're doing and they're bringing you back when they get the time so message could be nice and simple short and sweet now when you share this information to them you want to keep it short and simple and you want to be straight at the point so for example um my girlfriends left me or my girlfriend left me one year ago and i still i'm feeling bad about it okay let's talk about this now okay so it's not oh yes i used to go here with her and i used to enjoy this and we used to enjoy that and she should have done this and she should've done that but she didn't do this right and she didn't do that no no no i think we're getting it all wrong that's not sharing sharing would be for example i feel hurt um i feel upset i do miss her maybe at times i want to go maybe and find a better relationship everything that you want to do maybe where you went wrong maybe what you should do better in the future and why are you feeling how you felt then you know maybe you're in love maybe you weren't how you were feeling then how you feeling now how you want to feel in the future so what you want to do is you want to quickly just jump into how you are feeling about whatever's been going in your thoughts in your mind and then you always want to replace that with a positive right at the end you always want to come back with a positive so then you start looking at the brighter side because now you know you've traveled you've gone back into the past you spoke about your emotions you've come back and now you can see reality that this is where you are now you are without someone now you are single now so now you want to look in the positive side of things okay so now i'm single so now i could probably focus more on my work on my education and you know maybe find someone new um to have a relationship with and just watch out where i probably went wrong i not hurt i went wrong so yeah these are the things then you want to switch into positive like you know life is a bit more better maybe i could use this time for this now you know so you need to look at the brighter things in life rather than the negatives once you've shared out the negative that will leave you on a positive note and you also leave the listener on a positive note so keep your story to what you are feeling right now because everything that's going on it's not in the outer world it's more in the inner world so it's more about what's going on inside you and that's what you want to talk about so yes we do assume a response at times because we just feel that we know the person and what they are going to tell you what you know of a person is never that person that is only your perception of that person whatever that person is in reality is that person and that person knows who that person is who that person is no one will ever know whatever i know it's a bit complicated but whatever they think of that person is always untrue whatever you think of that person is always untrue it's only what they think of themselves is what they really are but what they think we don't think we think that there's something totally different maybe through one or two action then we've made a kind of a judgment of this person and we feel that this is what they're going to say to us so there's no point me telling this person and sometimes we don't want to hear what we don't want to hear so if that person tries to tell you oh cheer up um you know life is better on the brighter side and not letting you talk and then that's what's going to be in your mind that you know even if i try and tell this person they're not going to let me talk they're just going to tell me to look on the bright side but then you need to tell them to give me five minutes just hear me out or if that person is going to give you any sort of um and it's over the advice that you feel that you don't want or you don't want to hear a lot of the times we can't get or take our own advice like for me if i go into a situation tomorrow i will need to share it and i will need to seek the advice even though i know the advice that advice won't pop into my mind straight away because i'll have it filtered through my emotions now obviously it's hard to run without your emotions because then you won't be a human being and obviously your memory as well so it's kind of hard for us to then come out with the solution but when someone else tells us that's that solution you're like oh well i am like anyway oh why didn't i think of that i knew this but why didn't i think of it i didn't think of it because i was having that lens on and i was seeing the world through my emotions because my emotions were erupted at that time so don't do no any guesswork because we don't know what's gonna be in someone's mind we don't know what they're ever gonna say to us what they say to you it does not matter whatever they say to you whatever advice they give to you it does not matter whatsoever because the only reason why you were talking was to let your emotion out once your emotions are out you've released them and not kept them in your mind then whatever they have said to you won't make any difference to you yes you can brainstorm something together and see what else you can do within your life but that is something to do with your life and maybe your future and this what you were sharing about was mostly about maybe your past what was currently happening or what you think that might happen um so in terms of you on your thinking level um yes you know you've sorted that out and then you've spoke about it so obviously that will then make you feel better so it's not about what the other person's gonna say it's about what you are saying welcome to the new anxiety series if you're suffering from this or you know that somebody is then please share this video to them do

Bloodbowl 2 - BUCKETHEAD LORDS (Chaos Dwarfs) - Game 12
Oh 400 TV advantage nice if this was me playing under till the season I'd be like what a [ __ ] joke but he got Grif hasn't he maybe oh [ __ ] he's got grit for a wizard won in the 2006 seven eight eleven he's got Grif he's not even it's not even that bad least he cannot morg [Music] you mm-hmm zhuge economies are gonna whiz it good all right zulan apples pretty good happy about that cool I could wean way worse couldn't he could hurt him he couldn't go or whether he could ago because somebody can get sued under wizard that would have been horrible and as a No More would be pretty badass though anika strength six would be basically impossible for a choice to deal with yeah 42 you know he's clearly 260 is lethal to this Chapel food begin get a Whizzer that's amazing [Applause] looks do it but he's a badass felony I mean but thank god he's not God not God not looking a wizard that's the only thing I'm not that happy panting hands of you strength Ivana fighting for always he's a good player isn't it it's like a great Olga and he's got the over as well so he's got quite quite the strength advantage and Wow with two players at least and only one guy on this game now that the Ring 1400 is [ __ ] isn't it really in a way it's big [ __ ] TV officials why because there's 50 points on this guy and 50 points on this guy that could have just been a 5 guard slash mighty blow like these would have been two mighty blow guys or mighty brawl piling on guy and then more guard and then this team would be like outrageously better food so it is a bit blow to the TV but um you know it's still obviously better to have it than not and you can get 400 TV different I'm not come then by having this 400 TV though it's just not as completely ridiculous as it could possibly be yeah nice game good job I went your hands over blocky obviously the Bulls aren't gonna wear I'm going to try and pick it up get the knockdowns with cloth hmm I guess protect against the Blitz some more this could be a concern cutting it the Blitz the bots one of the ways you can win I guess is we'll study blitz result one of the very few AGL Zhuge can gone and rampage is all getting on a rampage he can potato and get lucky I can tell people of all undertones they're pretty much the ways you wind ISM which is one of the main that means a TV like obviously am i whether you're a beginner or not oh it's gonna struggle isn't priority it's hard to believe now that human caches are rarely here I can because we look armory and they look on the seven they don't look the same our mobility so it's just a stupid thing still not bad still not bad to 75% has failed what about the third one yeah standard until three four dr. GSI I guess just make it safer and make them safe don't get blitzed by azad similar within that's all stubble free [Applause] [Music] those should be strengths Iranian God had the old wormers on my your furnace should be [ __ ] strength very like if Sinai drink charge of the rules and they [ __ ] turned up with like that's what there are that all the people who made the [ __ ] models turned up with you'd be like [ __ ] you've got to make awful and strength 3 wouldn't ya courage of the book stupid being strength for I do like the yes gaben throws the way to I don't think they've got to have clause mega you having the cooking for would be better if it didn't have fun and in fact if they have majestic house it would be a million hamster like there's really only one threatening isn't there and he can get clawed so let's do hahaha brilliant of course just were looking for how is good if he can adjust coach people constantly never actually hit them up knock them over because he not for all be my urban the last thing you want to do it again one two three four five six G by GFI he does that sci-fi - holy [ __ ] made a pickup yeah absolutely time Jaeger two stones when I when I when I saw the arm break I thought it was a [ __ ] Locker and I was like aw for [ __ ] sake they obviously obviously hobgoblins getting armor brought in is absolutely [Laughter] well I mean the thing is with the vampires you can say that like it's daylight than they're like you know close to death and that's why they're only six four four is because yeah vampires in Warhammer our life even the [ __ ] as vampire ever is would just be a [ __ ] god in good bowl so but it's the same with chaos now because now chaos warriors aren't even cares or even more the chaos chosen which is completely outrageous because if a girl's chosen played played blood ball against a team of humans he'd just kill them all by himself without even trying so it's two bits all but [ __ ] stupid [Music] right could get the ogre one two three four could get the over here breakout ball arrays alright maybe can't get the Overland one one two three got no [ __ ] anybody you get a whether dorm it's not it's not a physical tom is it one two three four by six the only thing is EB you built for getting punched by zorb training great idea is it sort of make a geophones before five six tier five I like are you trying to bait the ball over just quietly don't [ __ ] feel it yeah I would be all for the inducements being an more powerful my copy see I'm I'm benefiting from them here but I can still to be and I think nicely yeah exactly Elvis DEP stood up straight is high but still you know there's other things that are crouching like that and they're still bigger it's like or not smaller you know whatever it's time we do terrible so bad deal is falling [ __ ] didn't kill Anthony whole favor last time I fled Zoey just each killed my dismantled my entire [ __ ] team by himself but he's protecting him nicely at the mall hitting running with a strength bad guy but he's kind of got to hug me again school oh I can't believe he stood him and one two three four one two three fold up the BGA I wouldn't forget the guard in there which account he nearly gave up a helmet on the ogre I'm going to set up for the ogre hit next I is a pretty safe as hmm not not safe that's pretty amazing how much seven gives away a blog gets put through to [ __ ] believe it clothes are just a little bit [ __ ] alarm and this guard guys games it does suck a little bit at least now any butters in from there he can put him alone quite like fun little move that he blitz as a bowl and obviously so be it for at least the guards alive to UM mess with it Olga [Applause] in this sticky cable but yeah look at this deletloss yeah you know you can't complain or getting stones can you really because you know the stones right so you left the old girl expose me No because I want to be based by the air I don't interface the ball yeah we stupid I was thinking I could set up with another two dice on him but it didn't work though that's not a potato blitz by the way you can't just you can't misuse potato I could rear always got three rolls for four terms when it's it's okay and he uses an extra guy to block no potato is when a potato is when you run down the field unprotected without a cage and that was that was nothing like [Applause] tonight he's done exactly what I thought he would be that's just what I always do where I play people say I'm [ __ ] because of it but you know I don't think so because you don't ask or before turn anything I mean I guess against people who are crap you can and with a TV advantage he can but I just getting them at I just get in me a you know routine of playing good players on football where they both give all the one day that's one bad made that one out of them then I can get forward now cuz you got a score and turn it haven't you the objective is not to score the objective is to score and turny that that's the way I look at it but and I probably shouldn't when you think there's a lot of people who are crap a football playing and just getting a touchdown is is just going to be bad isn't it that's you know I've thought that before to be fair especially especially we're bothering my Canarian style is pretty well suited for 40 because just gang a touchdown on the board there's a lot to be said for ISM now I didn't say it was you it said it was it was some davies amongst others you he's a god here so you can go so he told you overcommitted over that side didn't here yeah the world the World Cup coming wasn't great was behind them brother yeah it was it was some Davies and somebody else coming buddy woman but but that's it that's the things though the way that I have grown up as a coach obviously not physically playing fumble the objective is discontent not just Orchestra but because you know if you score if you give if you give cookie to turn to Scott Scott or if you give you know inari into turns to score you know veteran please go and you know but if you give to do maybe two turns maybe he wants tour average Coldplay given three terms in my my story so yeah maybe maybe I'm playing it wrong because now I've only got one square of lateral movement having acted over score unfortunately it mean better if I'd gone over there last term so I switch back in the middle this turn because now I'm in the middle of turn two soon so he's not normally I find I find people often overcome it and let you switch it background rotate around blood fun for Oh God see if I can block down zhuge it's all right isn't it all blitz down the older hmm freaky God would like to go in there and then I can block and then completes him Bob's your uncle I need about in Toronto it's pretty rough though just quietly GG FIA Blitzen one two three four five six this is this thing he's got a back those results go to the Blitz one two three four five six you can cheer by to assist would be better than Exxon I get a one Leon thing at the end Sonia push Thor double GFI's I'd rather have it GFI next term line kanae assists not really there's actually gone through a GFI that since then beeping having to endorse let's go green is good Greta's right greed works I don't agree the one yeah it's funny isn't it yeah that's why it's all about the thumbs he's going to eat going to blitz with the olders [Laughter] we'll be adults though isn't a sudden change in my company - you could block him blitz him and then chain him and you could just block him and sort up a blissful so you could just block and blitz them nothing go on to other than the blocks gotta being knocked down and to for this is a push is a little bit tricky isn't it I could blitz him and then dodge one two three four five six but lots of blitzing and dodging is pretty pretty chilly this team three four five six how to get the dice on him one two three four so him in there and then it's a block than one two how much going is going one two three so confident in our quarantine then out of with her on two with him I guess that's looking like the best thing another easy four four three two mi na blitz him first but I'm use the Blitz so got a block first got to be here asthma I don't even know I'm doing just roll some dice at random I'm gonna sort of blitz of the ball courier pocket it's easier in it don't you think then ah I didn't just do this just do a sweet miss quick that was a good idea one that I thought wasn't even the mystery it was just I thought it was a guy with walk oh well brilliant that was a good play wasn't it she's just gone for the Blitz yeah [ __ ] you know unless you didn't die this is making me feel like turning off chat and turning off the [ __ ] microphone and just trying trying harder he said it tons of attrition with my claws now really fast offical them now if he catches this [ __ ] kick off the [ __ ] rain [Applause] [Music] [Applause] you [Applause] [Music] well in the sweeter here what are you doing okay you [Applause] yeah [Applause] you [Music] or baby just banged on I got a tail that's pretty full of that pretty fun touchdown oh wow good kill rolls three six plays I'm pretty sure he can't one time yeah the thing is it wasn't easy at all or was it any he could have rolled some dice and I thought the chance of him rolling some dice to stop me is lower than the light is higher than the chance of scoring in one turn so I've got title across the buckle right having them I'll can have cycle across the back line there's no way go through without making a tuck the roll and I guess save the string for hob and the litter doesn't matter where it is it's going to be a house it bad happens finally getting fed up for Hobbes online he had gotten [Laughter] okay enough it is I do think it's funny and but yeah [Applause] it is funny better if there is a fault various skill like I literally make more fall Korea fouls the normal house so if anyone on the team's gonna get very rolling definitely doesn't be a good runner don't need waffle back little there's a little wobble without one day I'll make the top either player I cancel I thought I played okay one player and turned off chat and turned off the main it is [ __ ] softly it is tough for streaming that makes it I claim the balls hard enough for me and stream aspect definitely makes it but again that was that was part of the idea wrong like pro sports people practiced on this I thought having a talk stuff through streaming it would be like practicing one makes a bit different than just making them move in silence I'm not going to risk anyone getting hurt oh gee [ __ ] G try and not take fall down and read a good pro tip can take days only got a board could be obviated close oh wow - doing very good as that's awesome you could definitely take dirty player on a human catcher I think that's a pretty good people did that anyway they just use them as like you know because only 7ek they just use them as fast followers especially on fumble because then there was like a book in the client but fouling tip a square of movement so it was a bit of a weak Nevada white why a lot for skeletons Robin's on these for fouling because you know you needed that movement and and being movement it was pretty good so yeah I guess got a go block it seems you the violent one I don't know because brake tackle at least makes him he often gets 1 diced I guess I guess he gets one diced a lot and we could to avoid that all over this dude Oh baby there's only one choice Oh God Oh God strings for dodge your hands he's getting seven more touchdowns and he'll be the dream blood Scheuer hamstring for me pretty good this [ __ ] game up to I mean even the strength even the strength was a double what needs words like one two three doubles out of five on hobgoblins and two doubles out of 4 on blockers craziness crazy stuff turn around get me [ __ ] roll a lot of open the gate just a normal so it's yeah funny innit it's funny having 400 TV advantages work out alright and yeah like what he does get one dice to walk to be fair but break tackles really good I guess I've only got three really rolls and it's not so good at out dodge so I guess I should call block I really tackle is not near as good without dog is it that's the thing because if you roll a Warren not only not only you know not only do you roll a one on the dodge you can then roll a four on the reroll and then still have a great tackle for another one so it's it is really good very player tackle bugs you got to go dirty player foot oh man hole shredder that's amazing isn't it strange foreign dodgy but it's really really idv now fifteen thirty I can no longer face starting teens unless I soccer player may be sucked the blood job job even though he's got a touchdown due to having both block and dodge I'm after second just like him play starting yes the thing it's not so good having this much below is it and 10 fun factor so it's got 100 straight load close not very rowdy but when they get mighty blow it will be way better 115 1550 low water TV so yeah I think Goa be block you've got to be sought to be strong and stable haven't enough of the thing they have to be strong and stable by car I think it's imperative to be able to be matched against this daunting so I reckon I can maybe suck this guy and then still have 12 players but just losing 90 K is is pretty good isn't it because really what's he going to do I've got it on blacks good doing it is good having a blood guy it is really good having a blood job I like my hopes to be blood seeing as you know you get punched so right anyway thanks for watching if you enjoyed it don't forget leave a like and subscribe and stay fantastic

international kingsley is the author of after the car 2009 new consciousness for a new world 2011 new revolutions for a small planet 2012 the struggle for your mind conscious evolution and the battle control how we think and recently breaking the spell 2013. he is the author with irvin laszlo of the new science and spirituality reader 2012 and just released dawn of the akashic age 2013 kingsley has also recently published a book of his poetry beautiful trader kingsley says i continue to research write travel grow my own vegetables and keep on seeking to understand life's mysteries after all it's only a matter of perspective kingsley's website is www.kingsleydennis.com you've written a new book called breaking the spell i wonder if you could tell us a little bit about it and especially what is the spell we are under well susan the spell we are under is a form of social conditioning and this may refer back to what we talked about earlier in the technical mindset in that humanity has always to some degree being socially managed whether we go back to the earlier day the earliest days for example of priesthoods where information was kept by the priests and only disseminated in mystery schools and the masses more or less kept uninformed and then a lot later on for example in in the days of the monarchy social control was used to be a public display whereby someone who wanted to went against the status quo would be put in stocks in the village square or even home sometimes in a village square and that was a warning to people to stay you know to stay with the status quo and these days our social control is very subtle and carefully managed we can call it propaganda in fact the the godfather of propaganda edward bernays was the nephew of freud and knew a great deal about the the element of the people's subconscious and how to directly target this and sociologists have done tests and the famous one was called obedience to authority by stanley milgram and that test was whereby actors would put on white lab coats and look official and tell test subjects to electrocute people for giving the wrong answers and 99 of the of the test people would continue to electrocute people almost until death just because someone in a white coat told them to this is a famous experiment and it's called obedience to authority so a lot of the spell is about social conditioning and social conditioning is also not only physical and social management but a conditioning to ourselves we have a almost a veil over our true selves and we are distracted by the world around us so a main part of the spell is what i call our attention distractor and so i say that we're not living in 2013 a.d i know dominic is 2013 attention distractor a.d because we have had to try and get the point across somewhere that seemed a suitable way we have this this circus of media and uh entertainment entertainment which i also referred i call it militatement because it's so close to the old uh warfare stimulation games with its violence and that we're living in an age of militant military entertainment and so this distracts us this distracts us from working on ourselves as well and so the world outside is very strictly formulated is out there it's in certain parameters it's within a box and in the book breaking the spell i referred that to our ancestors uh a long a long time back we had a different consciousness where the world outside in the world inside was more blurry almost like a child's consciousness in the in the early years of a baby the the world is a blur of the inner world and the outer world and slowly through the formative years the young child or the baby gradually through obviously conditioning with with the parents and the family environment constructs um an exterior world we start to become permanent and then we lose our our imaginatory world and our imaginary friends and we start to then project ourselves into a very solid box-like exterior world so breaking the spell is about stepping back from these exterior distractions trying to first realize that we have layers of social conditioning because unless or until we realize that we have layers of social conditioning we can't work on those layers as they say you know no one will would break out of a prison until they see the prison bars um and so there's a wonderful story that comes from i picked it up when i was traveling in in turkey and i think it goes back to a story from gajief a a philosopher from the end of the 19th century and up to the first part of the 20th century and his story was that a magician was also a shepherd magician shepard had a huge flock of sheep but he had a problem because the sheep kept wandering off they went where they wanted to go they wouldn't come back at night and he couldn't control them so the magician shepherd had an idea he decided that he would hypnotize his sheep and he would make the sheep think that they were humans and that if they lived in his field and didn't wander off and did they had a life that he wished them and told them to have that they would go they would have a happy life and after they died they would go to a wonderful paradise and would have no problems and after that the the shepherd never had a problem with the sheep again so that story in some ways is an analogy that we have been hypnotized by modern life and that that has distanced us from our connection with our energetic selves or with our sense of self so i refer to working on oneself as polishing the bridge to oneself and the bridge the bridge to our inner self is like a muscle that if we don't exercise the muscle it it doesn't perform very well but once we start to exercise the muscle it grows and becomes more functional and that bridge by polishing it by nurturing it by connecting with ourselves starts to increase access to ourselves and at the later part of the book i also talk about some exercises that we can participate in one is called managing our energy the other is stepping away and the third is being vigilant and these are exercises that make us be more aware of our energy how we use it how we give it away to people or choose not to give it away as may be the case because modern life and sometimes modern people do suck our energy and the exercises of stepping away and being vigilant also refer to how we can maintain inner states of calm try to be objective in a distracted world try to step out of a lot of events that pull us in and really just distract us from a sense of inner awareness so that in a nutshell susan is what the book breaking the spell is about and i finished the book with two short essays about the misconceptions of spirituality in a modern life and it's a very short read and that was my main focus well i found it extremely helpful and i also thought that that might you might have been influenced by some buddhist traditions and thought there but also what i found quite helpful is you talked about positive inactivity i wonder if you could speak about that just briefly sure it may seem like i was infant by buddhist thought in terms of the mindfulness and the inner peace and i spent several years in turkey for example five years in turkey i had contact with sufi teachings for example and i'm aware of the teachings so i was not projecting anyone teaching but it's very likely that certain understandings um because in a sense a lot of these teachings are part of a perennial philosophy that is a the central core of many teachings are the same in essence and i think that when when we have been in contact with a lot of the essences of these teachings then when we project them they do we can say ah i can see a connection to this or that from there so coming from that inactivity is because our one of the conditions is that we feel that if we're not active or rather inactivity is um let's say a negative trait one has to act to respond to something and i would say well that may not be the case the first response we should have is how should i react to this what type of reaction does it need because sometimes a an event an encounter or a happening the best response is inactivity and you know and that can put a positive energy in into the into the encounter for example if we've had an encounter with someone who's maybe has been angry with us or is projecting something onto us and the the immediate response may be to to react against that to deny it or to to bring up fault or something we may decide that in fact the best thing to do is not to play into that particular strategy or that game play the other person may need to work it out in their own terms and the worst thing we can do is to throw energy back at them so an inactivity non-response could be the most positive sin in that situation um so that's just one small example so i try to say you know we should consider how to respond first not just necessarily think that a an active response is the only response well that seems to me to tie in what you were saying earlier about having a more feminine perspective because normally activity or doing or um the urge to shift energy by our own will is seen as yang or masculine where inactivity and allowing seems to me to reflect feminine values i can also see how this ties in with what you were suggesting might be a more appropriate response when you spoke with sabelle about the boston marathon to not react to just let be and see where it takes us is am i thinking in the right way yes indeed that's that's very perceptive and although i didn't talk specifically about this feminine values they they can definitely be associated with that type of response and again it ties into the response of the the new c values we talked about consciousness communication compassion and also we can put them together and we can talk about conscious communication because communication does not necessarily mean conscious communication yeah and yeah and so yeah and so um so to to respond with a an appropriate consciousness and also to tie in what we talked about with the new sciences is that if we're aware that we are non-locally connected we may realize that responding in the old mindset of conflict in fact is only going to be damaging for ourselves because we are sharing the same energy for you so with these new understandings it may shift also how we perceive and wish to respond and behave in our everyday lives and hopefully that will be a stimulus for bringing on board the the new set of values or different set of values which are more conducive to coherence harmony and equilibrium absolutely and if i may i'd just like to mention you because you mentioned edward bernays and adam curtis did a fabulous documentary called century of the self that really gets into the heart of what you were saying about what he did and especially in the u.s it gives a very clear indication of how much of an influence he had um on the culture so i'd like to encourage people to listen to find that on youtube and listen to it as well so i thank you for that good point susan yeah adam curtis also more recently made the uh three three stairs documentary called the power of nightmares where he talked about how a lot of modern authorities deliberately debitedly create fear as a response to events to again as a form of social control and that would tie into what we discussed in terms of reaction to events such as boston marathon 9 11. so thank you for bringing adam curtis a very good reference with him fabulous i think sabelle has a question for you now hi kingsley i had a question it seems like we've gotten value kind of mixed up like economic value and actual value so we we discount things that don't make a profit like the ozone layer or beauty or nature you know those kinds of things how can we you know refactor nature into our culture and refactor things that have value but may not have profitable economic value that's an excellent principle the way we use value as an economic status we we refer to people in in terms of their worth what are you worth their status and this type of mindset has now been projected onto the environment as well when we when we think about something we often say is it viable is it economically liable to do this it's often our first response and now our countries talk about the country's status and well-being in terms of gdp it's almost as if we're living in a topsy-turvy upside-down world we've got things the wrong way around and now it's interesting that i think it's the the country of bhutan has instigated the the well-being index and is was the first country to refer to itself not in terms of economic gdp but in terms of its country's well-being and the well-being of its citizens that would reflect its true worth and also the united nations brought on a well well-being index and is trying to promote that so this has been taken up by the also the financial let's say a commentator hazel henderson who talks very well in terms of green economics and a new economy and she talks about a well-being index and not gdp so this this idea is now gaining some ground what we have to do is really shift our sense of valuing everything and valuing people's worth and also from a political policy term uh point of view to think about our future and our present well-being in terms of happiness and more humane values and well-being in terms of also the state of our environment the state of our natural ecological systems because unless unless we can make this shift we are going to find it very difficult to shift towards this planetary society that i've been discussing and so we are in this value system that we have of economic value is part of the growth syndrome our economics is based on a mindset or syndrome of permanent growth our economies have to keep growing in order to have a healthy global financial economy and healthy systems our energy extraction has to keep on growing the ceos are pressurizing companies to have increased profit everything is based around increased growth now hey folks we live on a finite planet what at some point we cannot have continued economic growth because it just is not it's not viable it's not going to happen and i feel that we're seeing this now um we we are seeing this in terms of our resources our energy and our economics and that's part of the disruption is because the model of value is not a sustainable model is it's not a harmonious ecological coherent model and we have to shift not only economically but in terms of political policy to seeing well-being and happiness as part of these values and part of our indices also and not not this gdp only yeah i actually even saw an article recently that some of the people were dropping out of the workforce because the the workforce is is insane it's stressful and not humane and for their mental well-being is part of why they were dropping out of the workforce and so just priority shifting because you know if we go off of your advertising or anything else it's the only way to be happy is to have more and more and more and more but you know endless growth equals cancer you know and the idea of enough just isn't there that's it it's it's a completely crazy mindset this idea of plentitude and growth and consumerism and you you're exactly right this is this is a time this transition period where people are both thinking and considering about their priorities and also being forced to reconsider their priorities and this is part of the spring cleaning that i referred to earlier is that it's a time now to reconsider our lives our priorities and to ask ourselves where do we truly wish to see ourselves in 10 years time and and to consider what are my priorities what are priorities for my well-being and health and what can i do to start moving towards these these priorities these intentions and i i've had a lot of friends personally who have been going through these life changes and it's not surprising to me because i think this is what happens in transitional moments in times of of catalytical triggers and i had the same same moment myself i made a change to leave a a structured career in academia i basically just packed my bags and jumped ship and i i for my own personal journey is that i arrived in andalusia with two banks one bag was a 15 kilogram bag of clothes i say 15 kilogram because i know exactly because the airline won't accept anymore and i arrived you may know which island i'm talking about and i arrived with a small laptop in my hand luggage and a few books and that was firm four years ago i haven't looked back since and i've written about five books since i i now have my own garden i plant and grow all my own food i work in the garden i went through a very very large learning curve because i've never even worked or planted anything in a garden in my life and my parents made a joke they thought i was going to learn everything from youtube how to garden and i turned around i told them i don't have to use youtube i just look over the garden fence and copy my neighbor so i went through my own learning curve i went through a financial restructuring a lifestyle restructuring because i came to a point in my life where i thought well i could go on where i'm going i could make a very good career doing what i'm doing my heart's not in it and i just don't have the instinct for this i feel like now is the time to change if i don't make it now i may never make it or it may be harder to make it down the road and so i decided to make the change and that for me was part of this transition period of re-shifting my priorities from my personal experience i i feel a lot happier i feel a lot harmonious and i'm richer in myself which which is my index of value that's a wonderful story it's very inspiring and i i can hear in your voice you have a good life you know and it doesn't get better than that thank you welcome and it's a true story as well okay kingsley listening to your very touching yet familiar story about making massive life changes i think that um some of the obstacles that allow people to making those changes are a sense of fear disempowerment and subjection to outer authority and you had mentioned the power of nightmares as speaking of this but i wonder if you could tell us how you see that these might be interrelated fear disempowerment and authority yes it's well the system the system has a alexa and the system has a very functional way of being is that it brings people in in a way almost like a kind of straight jacket and the more we struggle the more it seems to tighten and so and also it gives out the feeling that we have too much to lose so the sense of disempowerment is that i can't leave this this way of being or this system because i will lose everything that's the fear that's what disempowers people and it weakens their energy their motivation and so we have to recognize that some people are generally caught up in the system maybe through a debt accumulation because of the the crazies economic system of of lending lending money at a rate which was just not viable for for the borrower or the lender and should never have taken place at all to people who who were not in a situation where they should have been given that money by the banks but the banks wanted to tie people into a debt system whether through loans or mortgages or credit cards and now of course um it's more difficult for people to walk away from this because legally they can't so that is a situation where i would say to people if you genuinely want to make a change in your life sit down with yourself with your family if you are with a family and seriously look at your finances and work out a plan over the years of how you can move away from this and work it out it may be long-term plan but you know priorities start to change now and can obviously bring in effect down the years um the other the other part is as you say it's just a fear of letting go and um there's a the fear of letting go reminds me of a story a little tale i heard and the tale is that a man is hanging off the cliff with one hand and his grip is loosened so finally he decides to to reach out to to the god above in this time of desperation so he he reaches up he points up with his eyes and he says god god i hadn't asked i hadn't asked upon you before but now is my time of need i have faith in you now god tell me what to do help me and then after a short pause a loud voice booms out and says let go and then there's a pause and a person shouts back um yes but is there another god up there oh gosh that's so true susan is often disempowering that that has to be tackled from a psychological point of view as well yeah but even that story you told um he was giving away his power to a higher authority and looking for this higher authority uh god in that particular god didn't suit him so he was asking for another higher authority another god to give him an answer to help him feel empowered it seems so crazy to me that we look to that rather than finding it within ourselves and listening to that still small voice within that really has a vibration of wisdom yes and that's that's part of really our social conditioning as we've talked about to give out to be in obedience to authority or to an external external authority and that that that's the perhaps the the most significant um debilitating thing that we can do is give our way our authority to someone else or to something else and the the um the german psychologist eric from had a wonderful phrase for this he called it the fear of freedom and i think that's what some of us have the fear of freedom to trust ourselves and this is one of the changes that i i sense is going to come about over the years ahead is that we through this energetic change vibrational change and world change is that they they will be a rise of an instinctual intelligence and i feel that people will start to trust and listen to themselves gradually more it may materialize or emerge more the younger generation but i feel that we need to and we will have to listen and trust ourselves more because that voice actually we had within us uh it may be small now but it's incredibly wise you just have to give it the the credit it's due yeah do you think that sometimes we hesitate because we're we fear we'll lose our sense of belonging as well belonging to a group but to a tribe to being politically correct there are many belongings just that that we may fear being losing out belonging could be um we don't wish those around us or like i say our neighbors to look strangely the human the human being has a strong need for attention and recognition um we we like to be verified we like to be acknowledged and we know this in in social pressure you know they one of the were for example in earlier tribes to be ignored or as we say sent to coventry and to be to be ostracized was itself a community punishment that itself had fear so in some people i sense that they are fearing talking even talking about these things because in because people may think that um they're talking strangely or weird and they don't want to be thought of as being different they want to be in part of the group um the chinese have an expression for this is that the nail that stands out tallest gets hammered down the hardest so no one wants to stand out or or you know be be apart from the crowd so this this is part of the fear but again that understanding of identity is very much an material sense of identity personality which which is externalized and it's very separate it's me and the world and i have to fit into the world whereby if we if we embrace the consciousness that we are part of a unified non-local collective then this this exterior sense of fitting in or not fitting in it is all paradigm it's part of an old mind and it doesn't have doesn't have a role there so again we come back to a person's perception and understanding of consciousness which is behind their projection of personality yes very much so um and i was thinking in terms of belonging we do belong with each other but not just human to human i think i think we're getting there figuring that out but also our local environment and as we spoke earlier the earth and the cosmos and that we're all evolving and i wondered if you could speak about this a bit yes and i've i i've spoken of this and written on this in the context of a living universe and as have many others and if this is this is a sense of the more genuine belonging is that we're not we're not just this this species on the earth um hurting through a hurting through space on on the back of a inert rock you know um that for me is that for me is just that's a conspiracy i think you know people may think the living universe is a conspiracy i think living on the back of it inert rock lit hurting through a non-non-conscious universe is a conspiracy um for me the living universe is is the the genuine reality and so that understanding of consciousness on a universal galactic solar and terrestrial level that means that we are all cycles within cycles we are all intrinsically connected and so yeah i i i almost i almost get a sense that the soil systems looking down on earth and saying look humanity you've got to get your act together you can't go around letting off nuclear weapons and you know emitting radiation into my atmosphere you're messing with me so we belong to many uh systems which we should be we should refer to it as families not not systems perhaps we're referring we belong to a terrestrial family a nature ecological family a solar family a galactic family a universal family and beyond that a unity and so therefore that belonging does entail that we play our part with the right set of ethics and behavior and and sense of responsibility and participation and interaction so i talk about needing to need to to embrace the living universe conception and consciousness has been been quite important being very important being primary once the living universe becomes part of our paradigm then that hopefully will start to shift this understanding of belonging um so in terms of of the sense of belonging this relates to understanding the living universe concept that not only do we belong with greater systems but we should and need to refer to those systems as families in themselves so we have we have a natural family ecological family terrestrial family we also have the largest solar galactic cosmic and universal family and of course the unified family so if we understand ourselves as playing a participatory role within a living universe and that we don't have this hubris role as being the great the great sapien sapiens all-knowing species who are in control know we are ecologically entwined with all the other systems and families and just as we are impacted by the other larger families so we impact them and just as we would not wish to hurt our physical human family so we should not wish to hurt the larger natural families ecological terrestrial families as well so once we start to have the consciousness that we are belonging to these larger families then i feel that this will shift how we behave and hopefully how we have a sense of belonging no one is alone we have to understand that we may be physically alone but no one actually is let's say alone in the emotional connectivity sense and that belonging we haven't belonging to the larger families yes and so beautifully said thank you kingsley very touching what you were just talking about sounds as if we're living in a mental plane for the most part we're that we've we've cut off from that awareness of that connectedness and we we live in a private world and could that might be symbolized by the western male necktie cut off from our hearts and bodies echo for a tires what would that be like a good image stripper we are we are cut off and perhaps one of the causes of that is how we've been using our minds to interpret the world and we touched upon earlier the the the cartesian i think therefore i am and for century we've been existing through a left brain consciousness or mental claim i think mental plane is an apt way of describing it right in consciousness because caution just has an all-embracing aspect the mental plane has been very linear rational and so we've interpreted the world that way and therefore we interpret uh how we respond to the world and also our personalities now it's interesting to note that a lot of the traditions teaching traditions what we may call wisdom traditions use such practices or rituals such as chanting meditation or meditation in a in a coloured environment such as a church using stained glass windows to have certain colours we have zikas or mantras and and these in fact and also we have such as the zen the zen stories uh sophie's stories these are mechanisms to activate the right side of our brain to try to not only activate the right side of the brain but to connect it and bring it online with the left side of the brain so they our brains are in a collective relationship and that apparently is is helps our evolutionary growth and our growth to understand the world and to develop our perception of the world and i would i would refer to listeners to the work of robert owenstein robert warnstein who as well as being a neuroscientist created the institute called ishik ishk which is the institute for the study of human knowledge and he's been involved in certain wisdom traditions and he picks up upon how the left right brain is part of this um way forward to integrate our understanding to pull us away from the mental plane and so that has some background um and also if we look at um for example the work of john gibson philosopher has talked about that we are moving towards an epoch of integral consciousness and so he talked about the mental consciousness or the mental plane as being a prior or current state and i i think that has a lot of validity that we are we are moving towards what we could call an intent integral consciousness epoch or era which perhaps would have a correlation with a left right brain more harmonious working which could how that come about i'm not sure maybe the energies we've talked about will help to facilitate the left right brain correlation i don't know well it seems that a lot of that can be worked on i mean the the yoga aspect of it is that you you get to dealing with your system as if it was not a part of all of this and it's not i i you don't you you know no need to go any further i totally agree yoga as a discipline also meditative practices um what we could generally call work on oneself whether it's a a certain path that we choose to follow or a certain teaching we or whether we choose to be in states of mindfulness or sit down quietly for a few minutes every day and try to bring balance within ourselves all this i feel are our tools to help um bring into harmony our our body as a receptive apparatus of of consciousness our our brain to left and right side to work together i mean i i'm sure that these traditions knew that was a reason why these mechanisms were were created what prayer for example prayer chanting mantras these are not for nothing they're now we're we are realizing the science behind it and perhaps the science is is bringing this this integral whole human together to shift away from the mental plane i can only agree with that i mean that that sounds wonderful and that that sounds that we're becoming human you know we've differentiated us from the rest of this and called us a human being and maybe we're just becoming human now yeah funny you should use those words um human being and human becoming i have referred to the human being exactly as that human be becoming would you expand on that um because i i see that well my understanding is that the human species is not a finished product that just as we have transition in the world we have transition and change and development within within the human species now some people talk about the next level of species is going to be some robotic android or some technological silly transhuman yeah germans human yeah the transhumanist the singularity um people these films like um the name of the schwarzenegger films trends terminator this type of picture is of this this cyborgian future and this this is seen as a natural development well i would say the next next stage we're going through is internal development and that it could have a physiological change on the human nervous system but instead of having the focus on bringing bringing on board these this as the next model that in fact we are not finished as a human carbon-based conscious vehicle on this planet and i with the the indian philosopher sri aurobindo also referred to the human as a transitional being and i i would agree with that i would say we are a transitional being and our responsibility is to participate in this process so not only do we have evolution on a grander scale or planetary evolution we have the possibility of self-evolution and also of conscious evolution now why also why i talk about this moment in history as being so unprecedented is that we are now aware that humanity as a conscious species can start to participate in their own unconscious evolution and be a part of this evolutionary development as far as i'm aware humanity according to our recorded history has never been at that stage of awareness before mass right there's been a few individuals that get there exactly there's been some conscious mutants or change agents that have uh have been there just as as richard brooke talked about in cosmic consciousness that the these people these change agents are popping up more and more now and i agree with that i feel that we are going to a stage where this phenomenon is going to start spreading on mass i know more people are going to be aware of that and partaking of this conscious evolution the the analogy i use is of a blotting paper i don't know if you wear a bottling paper when you drop the inks and the ink spread well if you have a white blotting paper you put one drop of black ink or any color sorry of ink on that blotting paper all you have is a drop of ink if you put a second drop you have another drop if you put three or four what you have is a few dots on a white paper but if you have enough of those dots on that paper and they all start to spread and connect together you have that aha moment and before you know it the plotting paper has completely changed to a different color yeah that's exponential so i feel that consciousness has this effect and as individually now that's a question some people say what can i do individually i can't change the world well my response would be start by working on yourself if you can work on yourself work on your conscious thoughts and your own conscious evolution that is helping to change the world because that is being part of the dots on the blotting paper you're you're adding one more to help the color change on the bottom so we are not ineffectual every time we think or work or can't be conscious we are being part of the change and that's my that's my understanding and it acts non-locally as well it seems like it it gets in the air that's right and that that's more that's more grist to our argument so to speak by having a long local science to back up saying well don't be frustrated uh you may not see the results immediately no we're in this kind of pregnancy yeah surprisingly we're so used to ordering something and getting next day delivery well you know self-evolution doesn't work on next day delivery i'm very sorry um it does deliver but not not in the way that you may think um it does make a difference yes thank you so much for that kingsley sabell thank you i had a question about um where our focus goes you know the the past the now or the future you know sometimes when people are talking about the past they say you know you don't want to repeat the mistakes of the past but i i sometimes wonder now is the past can we learn from the past are we in such a new place that the past we need to just let go of it of course i i do feel we can learn from the past my focus however is on the present and again of course if we're talking about a new consciousness then that presence of consciousness is in the is in the current now and so i get a sense that the past was was an area where perhaps more of our older generation our parents would would um linger in think background because again talking about this these moments of rapid change as opposed static change if we talk to our parents or an old generation and for example who lived through the second world war or the central the earlier part of the 20th century they would say well not much change in my life you know i i grew up and lived all my life in the same house or the same neighborhood not much went on they weren't so much aware of the change and so the past was something that they could look back on and and connect with and feel some kind of resonance with well now we at this moment in time and especially for the younger generation they're moving and we are moving through rapid change and so the past seems more more and more disconnected because it seems connected to an old mind or old paradigm which is no longer what we want to connect with anymore so i will say more focus on the present be be aware of the future not live in the future because again the future is very hard to predict and if you if we work on models by saying i want this to be the future then we're creating what we're already creating labels or a box for ourselves or creating a vision and you know humans can be quite stubble we can say i have this future vision and that's the way it's going to be um well again the future doesn't work that way the most flexible way and the most weight and the way to keep ourselves alert i will say is to be in the present moment and not to be too rigid with the way we we think also in the way we focus um if that answers the question yeah and i've seen sometimes uh the idea of the future is i'll be happy when this or that and so and they're they're missing the now and the when may never come and it or it may not come that way or or whatever yeah so true and many people thought would be living in the land of the jetsons by now the that u.s animation series they portrayed the future in that kind of way and we've had many future scenarios that by this time we'll have colleagues on the moon living off free energy by now etc etc the future doesn't unfold the way we often think it does because what i what i say is that the future is is in potential and for example i i recently wrote an essay i put on my website and i called it future potentials that the future is in potential according to our consciousness and our happenings now in the present nothing's fixed so we should we can be mindful of the future but because it's in potential now if you use the analogy or metaphor of quantum physics everything everything is is a in a potential until we collapse the wave and so the present is the importance of focusing on now being happy now working working towards what is going to be needed and be functional and that will collapse into certain future potentials so that that makes sense to me but there's also the the concept of creating attracting a new future so in the now how much of that intention should go to be creating and attracting a new future well aren't we all creating a future in the present um i thought that's part of the present is creating the future we are creating we are creating projects now innovations everything we do is is for meant for to create um what is to come to be better hopefully so in a sense the the future the present aren't that distinguishable because we are creating the future in the present what i tried what i'm trying to say is um not to project in the future some definite place where we have this vision and this conception and we become rigid through that we will create it by create the future in every present moment if that makes sense yeah yeah that feels very rich thank you kingsley i know you're one of the co-founders of world shift international i wondered if you'd like to speak of that for a moment and tell our listeners about it yes sure thank you worship international i co-founded with my colleague nicola christie and that came through our through our involvement with irving laszlo irvine laszlo also to my understanding he he popularized the the term world shift of course no one can own that name but he had the he published the book world shift 2012 and he formed some some groups around that and so is the buddha is the budapest club part of that not part of the world shift although it has ties to it because obviously it was created by irving maslow also but the world yeah the world should well irving's world shift came through more similar to what you could call the latest projection of these ideas similar to the global press and so through uh my my involvement with irving my colleague and i wanted thought that that that concept world shift and it's just so powerful world shift you don't have to say anything else it even captures so much um it's it's a kind of wow word and so we decided that we we just wish to put out information and to catalyze people about the world stiff so not not to tell people what to do or we're not a large organization there's only basically two or three of us behind it and we're not overly active we don't we're not doing the events or we're not we don't get any funding what we decided to do was a to create a website online to disseminate and put out information about the worship in terms of an inner and an outer change or evolution so it would try to talk about and again normalize this idea of inner and outer change and also we created a social network recording the world shift now social network and it can be connected to through the front page of worship international if you go to world youth international on the front page there's a big box saying worship now social network and so far we have something like 200 or so members who come on and share ideas talk again share resources and videos information um so i i don't wish to take a lead role and do anything like this is what you should be doing this is the world shift i take a step back and i wanted to create a platform with my with my collaborator co-founder to allow other people to have a conversation so we're not a great new organization all we're doing is a we're trying to allow people to connect this information and get and to get some information about the world shift and b to have a social net network platform to allow people to engage and have a conversation and to start to do something for themselves because again the world shift starts with the person not with someone telling you what to do but for each person having their own ideas and initiative so that's what we are really nothing grounds just does that well that sounds exactly what is happening conversations being together sharing information being in relationship it sounds wonderful kingsley is there anything else you would like to say in closing well i think we've covered a lot and i'm i'm greatly appreciative of all of your contributions your wonderful questions and importantly very appreciative for everyone who's listening my final comment would be that everything begins within ourselves we have the power the capacity to make change in the world and in ourselves never doubt never doubt the energy and the power that each person has and the power for positivity and from lighting that match so no matter how dark it may seem the power of light in that match is incredible and positivity and the energy of connectedness and conscious communication will help to take it where we need to be and never doubt that and thank you for listening well thank you kingsley it's been a wonderful experience a wonderful conversation and i know we've all enjoyed it and we'd like to invite you to come back again because i feel like we've just touched the surface with you and you very much are in harmony with what we're exploring consciously so thank you kingsley for joining us it's been an absolute pleasure well likewise thank you to all of you it's been a wonderful conversation this is what it's all about the connecting the communicating the the shared understanding the shared compassion and the shame with the listeners so i've been very happy to come back and greetings to all of you for an introducing spin thank you so much that was really lovely and i just really enjoyed our conversation likewise i did i can't believe that three hours have gone past did you guys stop time chipper has composed on the spot a poem and chipper well thank you kingsley i just wanted to say this has just been such a rush talking with you i i i as if i was sitting across the table from you what i wrote while we were talking about bhutan what is the currency of happiness worth today how do we sit when life urges us to play do we hold on to the hard parts that don't defray the stumbles of a footing going splade losing touch with edges where the verdant lay rooting deeper into ground however that we may as we talk with one another during all our days that's a wonderful part beautiful great resonance as well it comes across a great resonance thank you you have the perfect voice for it please please include that in the conversation i think it's so so appointed well i wanted to i share with you your own poem uh because it spoke so simply and deeply to me there is a dance that lights the darkness between distant stars and embeds into deep densest dark matter that threads its fiber into thin translucent veils lighting up also our helix conversation as acid chats to acid photons speak with photons shock impulses tug our hearts beatific through our brains until we light up in delight as if in our tesla dance all right that's a plus a memory blast it can say it's standing next to yours yours sounds a lot smoother i've got words like photons and acid and and uh shock in there yours was a lot more oh i i understand and i get my shock terms going too sometimes thank you for that answer good to be reminded of that perhaps this might be an exam a few examples of new conversations that are about to emerge kingsley would you tell us about your website and uh any information you'd like to direct people to on on your website thank you susan yes i i my website is my name kinseydennis.com you can just give me my name kingsy dennis luckily there's not many of us out there and you can find it quite easily i put a lot of material on the website i i have many articles free for downloading i have articles in spanish and french and also i put out a newsletter every month which i write an article for and also i put out news links and and web links and video links so

Dodger vs Ch4mp | Map 1: Aerowalk | Xonotic eLix #2 Duel Cup
here we are in the ground finder we have chump versus dodger we have Arawak it's a best-of-five this is the first map let's go then we start off on Dodger [ __ ] you're gonna pick up that mega Dodger with 100 armor take a little bit of damage but not all that much really Dodger takes a good amount of damage from champion doesn't manage to pick up the armor unfortunately chump now has the armor so Dodger in a little bit of a skirmish here you still got the best of stack that's for sure he they would pick up the first kill the items are now what Dodger makes a you say beautiful jump but he just stopped it a little bit but not too badly rocket jumps through there and this should be a very very fast-paced map these guys are extremely good at this now it is pretty much the most played map in arena FPS history spawning in quake Guan heading absolutely massively into quake 3 with a good amount of playing quake 2 quakes you kind of a Forgotten child of flag champ grabbing the mega and dodging up the hundred armor you to push up there from Dodger games playing trying to keep the pressure on all the game that these guys both have an extremely similar style of super hard trying to keep the pressure and you see Dodger faking that we saw the blaster a new chunk was down there a new chunk could hear if blaster set the blaster off to make the sound as if he was going towards the armor for Chuck basing jump out so just switch back over to a damaging weapon and do some damage five to nothing your score line right now Dodger is in the lead he's gonna grab a few bits of items he's not doing too badly I'll be picking up for any of these items just not able to get it on the scoreboard Dodger is keeping the constant pressure on it doesn't matter how much chumpies always take away for in terms of items it's never able to use that with a health advantage it's not gonna really easy game for Dodger that's all champ comes flying over the top there no dodge is just looking for his way back into this back into the frag he's definitely not out of the game obviously need the player right now he's but out of the game that does you got pretty much all those five frags in the first minute and a half we're now coming up to three and a half minutes and there hasn't been another frag Dodger now has all the major items all the items you need to make these kills and now he's gonna really push jump really try and make the difference and really try to get more score on the board a little bit gets a little bit more a little bit of a bad spoon the champion t2 first about do bad storms on this map the random spawns are so much better than the regular spawns on this map chump managed to steal away the hundred armor and dodgy rose on a massacre 10 kills on hub a lot of damage yeah champ being taken out just can't seem to get into Dodger right now Dodger playing an absolutely amazing game on hub it is both of these players best maps and when you've got two people are so good at this map it just comes down to really who is on better form today so this will be a very good indicator for the rest of the tournament with just how much champ manages to come back on this map just whether he's able to come back at all or whether Dodgers just gonna run away from it as we tipped the five-minute mark right now and again Dodger has a little bit of spurt where he does quite a bit of frags the five frogs again and then it goes quiet again I can't get a frag on champ champs not able to cut just able to get away just only to get just enough house to survive every little fight with just a little bit laughing game of just surviving but now he can't survive any longer he does bring da da da an extremely low health the Dodger moving so fast that chump can't really get one or two shots on to him Dodger is good I can be taking it guess the maker and jump got the armor and they fight in mid try and take dr. out Gaja let's get taken out by champ like tits in the chat and now champ has to try and take control you got the item control Dodge is losing a little bit in the item controller you can see the speed that Dodger is going around this might we can see the absolute incredible pace that he goes and it's incredible anyone ever hits him he just doesn't stop going definitely helpful so you chump tries to do the same but he's just not quite able to get the same precision Dodger just looks like he's completely gonna crash it I'm sure it just looks like he's not even moving I'm watching now on the 30fps stream that you're guessing and it really does just look like one minute he's looking one way and one minute he's looking the other even on 60fps Iran 144 Hertz Todd you're just crazy such a quick fashion champ managing to get a few kills up on the board he's pulling it back it may be too little too late though dodger playing around through the Gateway and holding a high position the health comes up Dodger gets the fraggle right is chubs about the pick it up unfortunately for champ it gets a bit of a dodgy spawn don't you say Birds counter side gets the Frog doesn't quite managed to get the reef right after the spawn but you're gonna be needing get a move on Dodger definitely the favorite for this final jump lifting like deepens put something in it but Dodger is definitely running away with hugs right now beautiful chiffon to jump on an absolutely fantastic shot well deserving on that one with the rage 5 frags without dying it's incredible to see players at this high of a level just have such skill disparity but really there isn't actually that much skill disparity here there's just the different emplaced out on this map you can get so many kills at wrapped up even if you are right at the top of your game chump ends the game and the first map goes to Dodger 22 2 3 off we go to fuse then

Libertarianism | Wikipedia audio article
libertarianism from Ladin libertas meaning freedom is a collection of political philosophies and movements that uphold Liberty as a core principle libertarians seek to maximize political freedom and autonomy emphasizing freedom of choice voluntary Association and individual judgement libertarians share a skepticism of authority and state power but they diverge on the scope of their opposition to existing political and economic systems various schools of libertarian thought offer a range of views regarding the legitimate functions of state and private power often calling for the restriction or dissolution of course of social institutions traditionally libertarianism was a term for a form of left-wing politics such left libertarian ideologies seek to abolish capitalism and private ownership of the means of production or else to restrict their purview or effect in favor of common or cooperative ownership and management viewing private property as a barrier to freedom and liberty classical libertarian ideologies include but are not limited to anarcho-communism anarcho-syndicalism mutualism and egoism alongside many other anti paternalist new left schools of thought centered around economic egalitarianism in the United States modern right libertarian ideologies such as mineral and anarcho-capitalism co-opted the term in the mid twentieth century to instead advocate lays a fair capitalism and strong private property rights such as inland infrastructure and natural resources topic etymology the first recorded use of the term libertarian was in 1789 when william belgium wrote about libertarianism in the context of metaphysics libertarian came to mean an advocate or defender of Liberty especially in the political and social spheres as early as 1796 when the London packet printed on the 12th of February Lately marched out of the prison at Bristol 450 of the French libertarians the word was again used in a political sense in 1802 in a short piece katika ng a poem by the author of Gabbar and has since been used with this meaning the use of the word libertarian to describe a new set of political positions has been traced to the French cognate Liberty kind in a letter French libertarian communist Joseph de zaak wrote to mutualist pierre-joseph Proudhon in 1857 de Jacques also used the term for his anarchist publication la liberté journal du movement social which was printed from the 9th of June 1858 to the 4th of February 1861 in New York City in the mid 1890s Sebastin for a began publishing a new la libertarians third republic enacted the lowest colorants villainous laws which banned anarchist publications in France libertarianism has frequently been used as a synonym for anarchism since this time the term libertarianism was first used in the United States as a synonym for classical liberalism in May 1955 by writer Dean Russell a colleague of Leonard Reed and a classical liberal himself he justified the choice of the word as follows many of us call ourselves liberals and it is true that the word liberal once described persons who respected the individual and feared the use of masks compulsions but the leftists have now corrupted that once-proud term to identify themselves and their program of more government ownership of property and more controls over persons as a result those of us who believe in freedom must explain that when we call ourselves liberals we mean liberals in the uncorrupted classical sense at best this is awkward and subject to misunderstanding here is a suggestion let those of us who love Liberty trademark and reserve for our own use the good and honorable word libertarian subsequently a growing number of Americans with classical liberal beliefs in the United States began to describe themselves as libertarian one person responsible for popularizing the term libertarian in this sense was Murray Rothbard who started publishing libertarian works in the 1960s Rothberg describes this modern use of the words overtly as a capture from his enemies saying that for the first time in my memory we our side had captured a crucial word from the enemy libertarians had long been simply a polite word for left-wing anarchists that is for anti private property and artists either of the communist or syndicalist variety but now we had taken it over libertarianism in the United States has been described as conservative on economic issues and liberal on personal freedom for common meanings of conservative and liberal in the United States and it is also often associated with a foreign policy of non-intervention ism topic philosophy there is contention about whether left and right libertarianism represent distinct ideologies as opposed to variations on a theme all libertarians begin with a conception of personal autonomy from which they argue in favor of civil liberties and a reduction or elimination of the state left libertarianism encompasses those libertarian beliefs that claim the Earth's natural resources belong to everyone in an egalitarian manner either unknown or owned collectively contemporary left libertarians such as Hillel steiner peter valentine philippe van Parise michael Otsuka and david Ellerman believed the appropriation of land must leave enough and as good for others or be taxed by society to compensate for the exclusionary effects of private property libertarian socialists social and individualist anarchists libertarian Marxists council communists Luxembourgish and Delhi inist s-- promote usufruct and socialist economic theories including communism collectivism syndicalism and mutualism they criticize the state for being the defender of private property and believe capitalism entails wage slavery right libertarianism developed in the United States in the mid 20th century and as the most popular conception of libertarianism in that region it is commonly referred to as a continuation or radicalization of classical liberalism right libertarians while often sharing left libertarians advocacy for social freedom also value the social institutions that enforce conditions of capitalism while rejecting institutions that function in opposition to these on the grounds that such interventions represent unnecessary coercion of individuals and abrogation of their economic freedom anarcho-capitalists seek complete elimination of the state in favor of privately funded security services while men are castes defend Nightwatchman states which maintain only those functions of government necessary to maintain conditions of capitalism and personal security topic personal autonomy anarchism envisages freedom as a form of autonomy which Paul Goodman describes as the ability to initiate a task and do it one's own way without orders from authorities who do not know the actual problem and the available means all anarchists oppose political and legal authority but collectivist strains also oppose the economic authority of private property these social anarchists emphasize mutual aid whereas individualist anarchists extol individual sovereignty some right libertarians consider the non-aggression principle nap to be a core part of their beliefs topic civil liberties libertarians have been advocates and activists of civil liberties including free love and free thought advocates of free love viewed sexual freedom as a clear direct expression of individual sovereignty and they particularly stressed women's rights as most sexual laws discriminated against women for example marriage laws and Auntie birth control measures free love appeared alongside NRK feminism and advocacy of LGBT rights and arca feminism developed as a synthesis of radical feminism and anarchism and views patriarchy as a fundamental manifestation of compulsory government it was inspired by the late-19th century writings of early feminist anarchists such as Lucy Parsons Emma Goldman voltaren de Clare and Virginia Bolton and ARCA feminists like other radical feminists criticized and advocate the abolition of traditional conceptions of Family Education and gender roles free society 1895 to 1897 as the firebrand 1897 to 1904 as free society was an anarchist newspaper in the United States that staunchly advocated free love and women's rights while criticizing Comstock hurry the censorship of sexual information in recent times anarchism has also voiced opinions and taken action around certain sex related subjects such as pornography BDSM and the sex industry free thought as a philosophical viewpoint that holds opinions should be formed on the basis of science logic and reason in contrast with Authority tradition or other dogmas in the United States free thought was an anti-christian anti-clerical movement whose purpose was to make the individual politically and spiritually free to decide on religious matters a number of contributors to Liberty were prom and figures in both free thought and anarchism in 1901 catalan anarchist and free thinker francesc Ferreira Guardia established modern or progressive schools in Barcelona in defiance of an educational system controlled by the Catholic Church fiercely and II clerical for rare believed in freedom in education ie education free from the authority of the church and state the school stated goal was to educate the working class in a rational secular and non coercive setting later in the twentieth century Austrian Freud new Marxist Wilhelm Reich became a consistent propagandist for sexual freedom going as far as opening free sex counseling clinics in Vienna for working-class patients as well as coining the phrase sexual revolution in one of his books from the 1940s during the early 1970s the English anarchist and pacifist Alex comfort achieved international celebrity for writing the sex manuals the joy of sex and more joy of sex topic state many left-libertarians are anarchists and believe the state inherently violates personal autonomy as Robert Paul Wolfe has argued since the state as Authority the right to rule anarchism which rejects the state as the only political doctrine consistent with autonomy in which the individual alone as the judge of his moral constraints social anarchists believe the state defends private property which they view as intrinsically harmful while market-oriented left libertarians argue that so-called free markets actually consist of economic privileges granted by the state these latter libertarians advocate instead for freed markets which are freed from these privileges there is a debate amongst right libertarians as to whether or not the state as legitimate while anarcho-capitalists advocate it's abolition Minh arcus support minimal states often referred to as Nightwatchman states libertarians take a skeptical view of government authority Minar castes maintain that the state is necessary for the protection of individuals from aggression theft breach of contract and fraud they believe the only legitimate governmental institutions are the military police and courts though some expand this list to include fire department prisons and the executive and legislative branches they justify the state on the grounds that it is the logical consequence of adhering to the non-aggression principle and argue that anarchism is immoral because it implies that the non-aggression principle is optional that the enforcement of laws under anarchism is open to competition another common justification is that private defense agencies and court firms would tend to represent the interests of those who pay them enough anarcho-capitalists argue that the state violates the non-aggression principle nap by its nature because governments use force against those who have not stolen or vandalized private property assaulted anyone or committed fraud Linda and Morris tan Hill argued that no coercive monopoly of force can arise on a truly free market and that a government citizenry cannot desert them in favor of a competent protection and defense agency topic property rights left-libertarians believe that neither claiming nor mixing ones labor with natural resources as enough to generate full private property rights and maintain that natural resources ought to be held in an egalitarian manner either unknown or owned collectively right libertarians maintain that unknown natural resources may be appropriated by the first person who discovers them mixes his labour with them or merely claims them without the consent of others and with little or no payment to them they believe that natural resources are originally unknown and therefore private parties may appropriate them at will without the consent of or owing to others topic economics you left-libertarians social and individualist anarchists libertarian Marxists and left-wing market anarchists argue in favor of socialist theories such as communism syndicalism and mutualism anarchist economics Daniel Garin writes that anarchism is really a synonym for socialism the anarchist is primarily a socialist whose aim is to abolish the exploitation of man by man anarchism has only one of the streams of socialist thought that stream whose main components are concerned for liberty and haste to abolish the state right libertarians are economic liberals of either the Austrian school or Chicago school and support lays a Fair capitalism topic prominent currents topic left libertarianism left libertarianism also known as classical libertarianism and left-wing libertarianism name several related yet distinct approaches to political and social theory which stresses both individual freedom and social equality in its classical usage left libertarianism as a synonym for anti-authoritarian varieties of left-wing politics ie libertarian socialism which includes anarchism and libertarian Marxism among others left libertarianism can also refer to political positions associated with academic philosophers Hillel Steiner philippe van Parise and peter valentine that combines self ownership with an egalitarian approach to natural resources while maintaining full respect for personal property left libertarians are skeptical of our fully against private property arguing that neither claiming nor mixing one's labor with natural resources as enough to generate full private property rights and maintain that natural resources land oil gold and vegetation should be held in an egalitarian manner either unknown or owned collectively those left libertarians who support private property do so under the condition that recompense is offered to the local community many left libertarian schools of thought are communists advocating the eventual replacement of money with labour vouchers or decentralized planning on the other hand left-wing market anarchism which includes pierre-joseph Proudhon mutualism and Samuel Edward Konkan III Zagar ISM appeals to left-wing concerns such as egalitarianism gender and sexuality class immigration and environmentalism within the paradigm of a socialist free-market Joseph de Jacque was the first to formulate classical libertarian ideas under the term libertarian later philosophers on the Left would go on to adding detail to his political philosophy to study and document attitudes and themes relating to stateless socialism for day shock libertarian communism topic right libertarianism right libertarianism or right-wing libertarianism refers to libertarian political philosophies that advocate negative rights natural law in a major reversal of the modern welfare state right libertarians strongly support private property rights and defend market distribution of natural resources and private property this position is contrasted with that of some versions of left libertarianism which maintained that natural resources belong to everyone in an egalitarian manner either unknown or owned collectively right libertarianism includes anarcho-capitalism and lays a fairman orkest liberalism topic history topic age of enlightenment elements of libertarianism can be traced as far back as the ancient Chinese philosopher Lao su and the higher law concepts of the Greeks and the Israelites in 17th century England libertarian ideas began to take modern form in the writings of the Levellers and John Locke in the middle of that century opponents of royal power began to be called Whigs or sometimes simply opposition or country as opposed to court writers during the 18th century liberal ideas flourished in Europe and North America libertarians of various schools were influenced by liberal ideas for libertarian philosopher Roderick T long both libertarian socialists and libertarian capitalists share a common or at least an overlapping intellectual ancestry both claim the 17th century English Levellers in the 18th century french encyclopaedists among their ideological forebears and usually share an admiration for Thomas Jefferson and Thomas Paine John Locke greatly influenced both libertarianism and the modern world in his writings published before and after the English Revolution of 1688 especially a letter concerning toleration 1667 two treatises of government 1689 and an essay concerning human understanding 1690 in the text of 1689 he established the basis of liberal political theory ie that people's rights existed before government that the purpose of government is to protect personal and property rights that people may dissolve governments that do not do so and that representative government as the best form to protect rights the United States Declaration of Independence was inspired by Locke in its statement t/o secure these rights governments are instituted among men deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed that whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it nevertheless scholar Ellen makes ins would says that there are doctrines of individualism that are opposed to Lockean individualism and non Lockean individualism may encompass socialism according to Murray Rothbard the libertarian Creed emerged from the liberal challenges to an absolute central state and a king ruling by divine right on top of an older restrictive web of feudal land monopolies and urban guild controls and restrictions as well as the mercantilism of a bureaucratic war farming state allied with privileged merchants the object of liberals was individual liberty in the economy in personal freedoms and civil liberty separation of state and religion and peace as an alternative to imperial aggrandizement he cites Locke's contemporaries the Levellers who held similar views also influential were the English kaitos letters during the early 1700s reprinted eagerly by American colonists who already were free of European aristocracy and feudal land monopolies in January 1776 only two years after coming to America from England Thomas Paine published his pamphlet common sense calling for independence for the colonies Paine promoted liberal ideas in clear and concise language that allowed the general public to understand the debates among the political elites common sense was immensely popular in disseminating these ideas selling hundreds of thousands of copies Paine would later write the rights of man and the age of reason and participate in the French Revolution Payne's theory of property show de libertarian concern with the redistribution of resources in 1793 William Godwin wrote a libertarian philosophical treatise inquiry concerning political justice and its influence on morals and happiness which criticized ideas of human rights and of society by contract based on vague promises he took liberalism to its logical and our kick conclusion by rejecting all political institutions law government and apparatus of coercion as well as all political protests and insurrection instead of institutionalized justice Godwin proposed that people influence one another to moral goodness through informal reasoned persuasion including in the associations they joined as this would facilitate happiness topic rise of anarchism modern anarchism sprang from the secular or religious thought of the Enlightenment particularly jean-jacques Rousseau's arguments for the moral centrality of freedom as part of the political turmoil of the 1790s in the wake of the French Revolution William Godwin developed the first expression of modern anarchist thought according to Peter Kropotkin Godwin was the first to formulate the political and economical conceptions of anarchism even though he did not give that name to the ideas developed in his work while Godwin attached his anarchist ideas to an early Edmund Burke Godwin as generally regarded as the founder of the school of thought known as philosophical anarchism he argued in political justice 1793 that government has an inherently malevolent influence on society and that it perpetuates dependency and ignorance he thought that the spread of the use of reason to the masses would eventually cause government to wither away as an unnecessary force although he did not accord the state with moral legitimacy he was against the use of revolutionary tactics for removing the government from power rather Godwin advocated for its replacement through a process of peaceful evolution his aversion to the imposition of a rules-based society led him to denounce as a manifestation of the people's mental enslavement the foundations of law property rights and even the institution of marriage Godwin considered the basic foundations of society as constraining the natural development of individuals to use their powers of reasoning to arrive at a mutually beneficial method of social organization in each case government and its institutions are shown to constrain the development of our capacity to live wholly in accordance with the full and free exercise of private judgment in France various anarchist currents were present during the Revolutionary period with some revolutionaries using the term anarchist a in a positive light as early as September 1793 the enrages opposed revolutionary government as a contradiction in terms denouncing the Jacobin dictatorship jean varlet wrote in 1794 that government and revolution are incompatible unless the people wishes to set its constituted authorities in permanent insurrection against itself in his manifesto of the equals Sylvain Marechal looked forward to the disappearance once and for all of the revolting distinction between rich and poor of great and small of masters and valets of governors and govern topic libertarian socialism libertarian socialism libertarian communism and libertarian Marxism are all phrases which activists with a variety of perspectives have applied to their views anarchist communist philosopher Joseph de zaak was the first person to describe himself as a libertarian unlike mutualist anarchist philosopher pierre-joseph Proudhon he argued that it is not the product of his or her labor that the worker has a right to but to the satisfaction of his or her needs whatever may be their nature according to anarchist historian max net lau the first use of the term libertarian communism was in November 1880 when a French anarchist Congress employed it to more clearly identify its doctrines the French anarchist journalist Sebastian for a started the weekly paper la liberté the libertarian in 1895 individualist anarchism refers to several traditions of thought within the anarchist movement that emphasized the individual and their will over any kinds of external determinants such as groups society traditions and ideological systems an influential form of individualist anarchism called egoism or egoist anarchism was expounded by one of the earliest and best-known proponents of individualist anarchism the German max Stirner Stern errs the ego in its own published in 1844 is a founding text of the philosophy according to sterner the only limitation on the rights of the individual as their power to obtain what they desire without regard for God state or morality sterner advocated self-assertion and foresaw unions of egoist non-systematic associations continually renewed by all parties support through an act of will which sterner proposed as a form of organization in place of the state egoist anarchists argued that egoism will foster genuine and spontaneous union between individuals egoism has inspired many interpretations of sterner Salah sofy it was rediscovered and promoted by German philosophical anarchist and LGBT activist John Henry McKay Josiah Warren is widely regarded as the first American anarchist and the four-page weekly paper he edited during 1833 the peaceful revolutionist was the first anarchist periodical published for American anarchist historian Yunus Manette

Josiah Warren and Stephen Pearl Andrews William B Green presented this proud only in mutualism in its purest and most systematic form later Benjamin Tucker fused sterner egoism with the economics of Warren and proud Hahn in his eclectic influential publication Liberty from these early influences individualist anarchism in different countries attracted a small yet diverse following of bohemian

main propagators of anarchist thought in that area in the late nineteenth century and is considered to be perhaps the most beloved figure in the Spanish anarchist movement of the 19th century ideologically he was influenced by Brad la Owen and Paine whose works he had studied during his stay in England and Kropotkin whom he read later the revolutionary wave of 1917 to 1923 saw the active participation of anarchists in Russia and Europe Russian anarchists participated alongside the Bolsheviks in both the February in October 1917 revolutions however Bolsheviks in central Russia quickly began to imprison or drive underground the libertarian anarchists many fled to the Ukraine there in the Ukrainian free territory they fought in the Russian Civil War against the white movement monarchists and other opponents of revolution and then against Bolsheviks as part of the revolutionary insurrectionary army of Ukraine led by nestor makhno who established an anarchist society in the region for a number of months expelled American anarchists Emma Goldman and Alexander Berkman protested Bolshevik policy before they left Russia the victory of the Bolsheviks damaged anarchist movements internationally as workers and activists joined communist parties in France and the United States for example members of the major syndicalist movements of the CGT and IWW joined the Communist international in Paris the diello Trude a group of Russian anarchist exiles which included nestor makhno issued a 1926 manifesto the organizational platform of the general union of anarchists draft calling for new anarchist organizing structures the Bavarian Soviet republic of 1918-1919 had libertarian socialist characteristics in Italy from 1918 to 1921 the anarcho-syndicalist trade union union Syndicale italiana grew to 800,000 members in the 1920s and 1930s with the rise of fascism in Europe anarchists began to fight fascists in Italy in France during the February 1934 riots and in Spain where the CNT Confederation Nacional del trabajo boycott of elections led to a right-wing victory and it's later participation in voting in 1936 helped bring the Popular Front back to power this led to a ruling class attempted coup in the Spanish Civil War 1936 to 1939 grupo communist anarchic OD Firenze held that the during early 20th century the terms libertarian communism and anarchist communism became synonymous with in the International anarchist movement as a result of the close connection they had in Spain anarchism in Spain with libertarian communism becoming the prevalent term Murray Bookchin wrote that the Spanish libertarian movement of the mid 1930s was unique because its workers control and collectives which came out of a three-generation massive libertarian movement divided the Republican camp and challenged the Marxists urban anarchists created libertarian best forms of organization which evolved into the CNT a syndicalist Union providing the infrastructure for a libertarian Society also formed were local bodies to administer social and economic life on a decentralized libertarian basis much of the infrastructure was destroyed during the 1930s spanish civil war against authoritarian and fascist forces the iberian federation of libertarian youth fi jl spanish federation iberica da Juventude libertarians sometimes abbreviated as

platform ism in 1968 in Carrara Italy the international of anarchist Federation's was founded during an international anarchist conference to advance libertarian solidarity it wanted to form a strong

platform ax stand Arco communist Daniel Guerin published an essay in 1969 called libertarian Marxism in which he dealt with the debate between Karl Marx and Mikhail Bakunin at the first international and afterward suggested that L Ebert Aryan Marxism rejects determinism and fatalism giving the greater place to individual well intuition imagination reflex speeds and to the deep instincts of the masses which are more far-seeing in hours of crisis than the reasonings of the elites libertarian Marxism thinks of the effects of surprise provocation and boldness refuses to cluttered and paralyzed by a heavy scientific apparatus doesn't equivocate or bluff and guards itself from adventurism as much as from fear of the unknown libertarian Marxist currents often draw from Marx and Engels later works specifically the grundrisse and the civil war in France they emphasized the Marxist belief in the ability of the working class to forge its own destiny without the need for a Revolutionary Party or state libertarian Marxism includes such currents as council communism left communism socialism Barbary lecher ISM situationism and opera's mo autonomous amande new left in the United States from 1970 to 1981 there existed the publication root and branch which had as a subtitle a libertarian Marxist Journal in 1974 the libertarian communism journal was started in the United Kingdom by a group inside the Socialist Party of Great Britain in 1986 the anarcho-syndicalist Sam dole Gough started and led the publication libertarian labor review in the United States which decided to rename itself as anarcho-syndicalist review in order to avoid confusion with right libertarian views topic individualism in the United States the indigenous anarchist tradition in the United States was largely individualist in 1825 Josiah Warren became aware of the social system of utopian socialist Robert Owen and began to talk with others in Cincinnati about founding a communist colony when this group failed to come to an agreement about the form and goals of their proposed community Warren sold his factory after only two years of operation packed up his young family and took his place as one of nine hundred or so o knights who had decided to become part of the founding population of New Harmony Indiana Warren termed the phrase cost the limit of price and proposed a system to pay people with certificates indicating how many hours of work they did they could exchange the notes at local time stores for goods that took the same amount of time to produce he put his theories to the test by establishing an experimental labor for labor store called the Cincinnati time store where trade was facilitated by labor notes the store proved successful and operated for three years after which it was closed so that Warren could pursue establishing colonies based on mutualism including utopia and modern times after New Harmony failed Warren shifted his ideological loyalties from socialism to anarchism which was no great leap given that Owens socialism had been predicated on Godwin's anarchism Warren is widely regarded as the first American anarchist and the four-page weekly paper the peaceful revolutionist he edited during 1833 was the first anarchist periodical published an enterprise for which he built his own printing press cast his own type and made his own printing plates cattle an historian Xavier Diaz reports that the intentional communal experiments pioneered by Warren were influential in European individualist anarchists of the late 19th and early 20th centuries such as Emil Armand and the intentional community started by them Warren said that Steven pearl Andrews individualist anarchist and close associate wrote the most lucid and complete exposition of Warren's own theories in the science of society published in 1852 Andrews was formerly associated with the furriest movement but converted to radical individualism after becoming acquainted with the work of Warren like Warren he held the principle of individual sovereignty as being of paramount importance contemporary American anarchist Hakim Bey reports Steven pearl Andrews was not a furry wrist but he lived through the brief craze for phalanges in America and adopted a lot of furry wrist principles and practices a maker of world's out of words he syncretized abolitionism in the united states free love spiritual universalism warren and furry a into a grand utopian scheme he called the universal pan turkey he was instrumental in founding several intentional communities including the brownstone utopia on 14th Street in New York and modern times in Brentwood Long Island the latter became as famous as the best-known furriest communes Brook farm in Massachusetts and the North American phalanx in New Jersey in fact modern times became downright notorious for free love and finally foundered under a wave of scandalous publicity Andrews and Victoria Woodhull were members of the infamous section 12 of the first international expelled by marks for its anarchist feminist and spiritualist tendencies for American anarchist historian Eunice Manette Schuster I T as a parent that proud own nyan anarchism was to be found in the United States at least as early as 1848 and that it was not conscious of its affinity to the individualist anarchism of Josiah Warren and Steven pearl Andrews William B green presented this proud only in mutualism in its purest and most systematic form William Batchelder Green was a nineteenth-century mutualist individualist anarchist Unitarian minister soldier and promoter of free banking in the United States Green is best known for the works mutual banking which proposed an interest-free banking system and transcendentalism a critique of the New England philosophical school after 1850 he became active in labor reform he was elected vice president of the New England labor reform League the majority of the members holding to proudhon scheme of mutual banking and in 1869 president of the Massachusetts labor union Green then published socialistic mutualistic and financial fragments 1875 he saw mutualism as the synthesis of liberty and order his associationism is checked by individualism mind your own business judge not that ye be not judged over matters which are purely personal as for example moral conduct the individual as sovereign as well as over that which he himself produces for this reason he demands mutuality in marriage the equal right of a woman to her own personal freedom and property poet naturalist and transcendentalist henry david thoreau was an important early influence in individualist anarchist thought in the United States and Europe he is best known for his book Walden a reflection upon simple living and natural surroundings and his essay civil disobedience resistance to civil government an argument for individual resistance to civil government in moral opposition to an unjust state in Walden Thoreau advocates simple living and self-sufficiency among natural surroundings and resistance to the advancement of industrial civilization civil disobedience first published in 1849 argues that people should not permit governments to overrule or atrophy their consciences and that people have a duty to avoid allowing such acquiescence to enable the government to make them the agents of injustice these works influenced Green anarchism and narco primitivism and anarcho pacifism as well as figures including Mohandas Gandhi Martin Luther King Jr Martin Buber and Leo Tolstoy many have seen in Thoreau one of the precursors of a college is Amanda narco primitivism represented today in John's erson for George Woodcock this attitude can be also motivated by certain idea of resistance to progress and of rejection of the growing materialism which is the nature of American society in the mid 19th century quote dot susan included Thoreau's excursions in his edited compilation of anti civilization writings against civilization readings and reflections individualist anarchist such as Thoreau do not speak of economics but simply the right of disunion from the state and for see the gradual elimination of the state through social evolution agora star J Neil Schulman cites Thoreau as a primary inspiration many economists since Adam Smith have argued that unlike other taxes a land value tax would not cause economic inefficiency it would be a progressive tax ie tax paid primarily by the wealthy that increases wages reduces economic inequality removes incentives to misuse real estate and reduces the vulnerability that economies face from credit and property bubbles early proponents of this view include Thomas Paine Herbert Spencer and Hugo Grotius but the concept was widely popularized by the economist and social reformer Henry George George believed that people ought to own the fruits of their labor and the value of the improvements they make thus he was opposed to income taxes sales taxes taxes on improvements and all other taxes on production labor trade or commerce George was among the staunchest defenders of free markets and his book protection or free trade was read into the u.s. Congressional Record yet he did support direct management of natural monopolies as a last resort such as right-of-way monopolies necessary for railroads George advocated for elimination of intellectual property arrangements in favor of government sponsored prizes for inventors early followers of George's philosophy called themselves single taxers because they believed that the only legitimate broad-based tax was land rent the term George ISM was coined later though some modern proponents prefer the term geo ism instead leaving the meaning of GL earth in Greek deliberately big lluis the terms earth sharing g anomic s-- and geo libertarianism are used by some georgous to represent a difference of emphasis or real differences about how land rent should be spent but all agree that land rent should be recovered from its private owners individualist anarchism found in the united states an important space for discussion and development within the group known as the boston anarchists even among the nineteenth century american individualist s-- there was no monolithic doctrine and they disagreed amongst each other on various issues including intellectual property rights and possession versus property in land some boston anarchists including Benjamin Tucker identified as socialists which in the 19th century was often used in the sense of a commitment to improving conditions of the working class ie the labor problem Lysander Spooner besides his individualist anarchist activism was also an anti-slavery activist and member of the first international Tucker argued that the elimination of what he called the for monopolies the land monopoly the money and banking monopoly the monopoly powers conferred by patents and the quasi monopolistic effects of tariffs would undermine the power of the wealthy and big business making possible widespread property ownership and higher incomes for ordinary people while minimizing the power of would-be bosses and achieving socialist goals without state action Tucker's anarchist periodical Liberty was published from August 1881 to april 1908 the publication emblazoned with proud Hans quote that Liberty us not the daughter but the mother of order was instrumental in developing and formalizing the individualist anarchist philosophy through publishing essays and serving as a for for debate contributors included Benjamin Tucker Lysander Spooner Oberon Herbert Dyer Lum Joshua K Engels John Henry Mackay Victor Uros Wordsworth donis Thorpe James L Walker J William Lloyd Florence Finch Kelly voltaren declare Stephen T Byington John Beverly Robinson Joe labadie Lillian Harman and Henry Appleton later Tucker and others abandoned their traditional support of natural rights and converted to an ego is a modeled upon the philosophy of Max Turner a number of natural rights proponents stopped contributing in protest in T here after Liberty championed egoism although its general content did not change significantly several publications were undoubtedly influenced by Liberty's presentation of egoism they included I published by CL Swartz edited by W II Gord AK + JW Lloyd all associates of Liberty the ego and the ego estate by Edward H Fulton among the egoist papers that Tucker followed were the German during edited by Adolph bran and the eagle and the serpent issued from London the latter the most prominent english-language egoist journal was published from 1898 to 1900 with the subtitle a journal of egoistic philosophy and sociology topic modern American libertarianism by around the start of the 20th century the heyday of individualist anarchism had passed HL Mencken and Albert J nock were the first prominent figures in the United States to describe themselves as libertarians they believed Franklin D Roosevelt had co-opted the word liberal for his New Deal policies which they opposed and used libertarian to signify their allegiance to individualism in 1914 Nach joined the staff of the Nation magazine which at the time was supportive of liberal capitalism a lifelong admirer of Henry George knock went on to become co-editor of the Freeman from 1922 1924 a publication initially conceived as a vehicle for the single tax movement financed by the wealthy wife of the magazine's other editor Francis Nielsen critic HL Mencken wrote that H as editorials during the three brief years of the Freeman set a mark that no other man of his trade has ever quite managed to reach they were well informed and sometimes even learned but there was never the slightest trace of pedantry in them executive vice president of the Cato Institute David Boaz right in 1943 at one of the lowest points for liberty and humanity in history three remarkable women published books that could be said to have given birth to the modern libertarian movement Isabelle Patterson's the god of the Machine Rose Wilder Lane the discovery of freedom and einer and the Fountainhead each promoted individualism and capitalism none of the three used the term libertarianism to describe their beliefs and ran specifically rejected the label criticizing the burgeoning American libertarian movement as the hippies of the right rands own philosophy objectivism is noted Lee similar to libertarianism and she accused libertarians of plagiarizing her ideas Rand stated all kinds of people today call themselves libertarians especially something calling itself the new right which consists of hippies who are anarchists instead of leftist collectivists but anarchists are collectivists capitalism as the one system that requires absolute objective law yet libertarians combine capitalism and anarchism that's worse than anything the New Left has proposed it's a mockery of philosophy and ideology they sling slogans and try to ride on to band wagons they want to be hippies but don't want to preach collectivism because those jobs are already taken but anarchism as a logical outgrowth of the anti intellectual side of collectivism I could deal with a Marxist with a greater chance of reaching some kind of understanding and with much greater respect anarchists are the scum of the intellectual world of the left which has given them up so the right picks up another leftist discard that's the libertarian movement in 1946 Leonard eread founded the foundation for economic education fee an American non-profit educational organization which promotes the principles of laissez-faire economics private property and limited government according to Gary North for Murphy director of seminars in a current Ludwig von Mises Institute scholar fee is the granddaddy of all libertarian organizations the initial officers of fee were Leonard eread as president Austrian school economist Henry Hazlitt as vice president and chairman David Goodrich of BF Goodrich other trustees on the fee board have included wealthy industrialist Jasper Crain of DuPont HW LA now of William Volker & Co and Robert Welch founder of the John Birch Society Austrian school economist Murray Rothbard was initially an enthusiastic partisan of the old right particularly because of its general opposition to war and imperialism but long embraced a reading of American history that emphasized the role of elite privilege in shaping legal and political institutions he was part of eine rand circle for a brief period but later harshly criticized objectivism he praised Rand's Atlas Shrugged and wrote that she introduced me to the whole field of natural rights and natural law philosophy prompting him to learn the glorious natural rights tradition he soon broke with Rand over various differences including his defense of anarchism Rothberg was influenced by the work of the 19th century American individualist anarchists and sought to meld their advocacy of free markets and private defense with the principles of Austrian economics this new philosophy he called anarcho-capitalism karl hess a speechwriter for Barry Goldwater and primary author of the Republican Party's 1960 and 1964 platforms became disillusioned with traditional politics following the 1964 presidential campaign in which Goldwater lost to lyndon b johnson he parted with the republicans altogether after being rejected for employment with the party and began work as a heavy-duty welder hess began reading american anarchists largely due to the recommendations of his friend murray rothbard and said that upon reading the works of communist anarchist emma goldman he discovered that anarchists believed everything he had hoped the republican party would represent for hess goldman was the source for the best and most essential theories of iron Rand without any of that crazy solipsism that Rand was so fond of hesse and Rothberg founded the journal left and right a journal of libertarian thought which was published from 1965 to 1968 with Georg Rasch and Leonard P Ligia in 1969 they edited the libertarian forum 1969 which has left in 1971 Hess eventually put his focus on the small scale stating that society as people together making culture he deemed two of his cardinal social principles to be opposition to central political authority and concern for people as individuals his rejection of standard American Party politics was reflected in a lecture he gave during which he said the Democrats or liberals think that everybody is stupid and therefore they need somebody to tell them how to behave themselves the Republicans think everybody is lazy the Vietnam War split the uneasy alliance between growing numbers of American libertarians and conservatives who believed in limiting Liberty to uphold moral virtues libertarians opposed to the war joined the draft resistance and peace movements as well as organizations such as students for a Democratic Society SDS in 1969 and 1970 has joined with others including Murray Rothbard Robert Lefevre Dana Rohrabacher Samuel Edward Konkan three and former SDS leader Carl Oglesby to speak at two left/right conferences which brought together activists from both the old right and the new left in what was emerging as a nascent libertarian movement as part of his effort to unite right and left libertarianism Hess would join the SDS as well as the Industrial Workers of the world IWW of which he explained we used to have a labor movement in this country until IWW leaders were killed or imprisoned you could tell labor unions had become captive when business and government began to praise them they're destroying the militant black leaders the same way now if the slaughter continues before long liberals will be asking what happened to the blacks why aren't they militant anymore Rothberg ultimately broke with the left a lying himself instead with the burgeoning pill a conservative movement he criticized the tendency of these left libertarians to appeal to free spirits to people who don't want to push other people around and who don't want to be pushed around themselves in contrast to the bulk of Americans who might well be tight asked conformists who want to stamp out drugs in their vicinity kick out people with strange dress habits etc this left libertarian tradition has been carried to the present day by Samuel Edward Konkan III's AG rest's contemporary mutualists such as Kevin Carson and Roderick T long and other left-wing market anarchists in 1971 a small group of Americans led by David Nolan formed the libertarian party which has run a presidential candidate every election year since 1972 other libertarian organizations such as the Center for libertarian studies and the Cato Institute were also formed in the 1970s philosopher John Haas purse a one-time member of rands inner circle proposed a non initiation of force principle to unite both groups but this statement later became a required pledge for candidates of the libertarian party and hospice became its first presidential candidate in 1972 in the 1980s has joined the libertarian party and served as editor of its newspaper from 1986 to 1990 modern libertarianism gained significant recognition in academia with the publication of Harvard University professor Robert Nozick's Anarchy state and utopia in 1974 for which he received a National Book Award in 1975 in response to John Rawls's a theory of justice Nozick's book supported a minimal state also called a night watchman state by Nozick on the grounds that the ultra minimal state arises without violating individual rights and the transition from an ultra minimal state to a minimal state as morally obligated to occur specifically Nozick writes we argue that the first transition from a system of private protective agencies to an ultra minimal state will occur by an invisible hand process in a morally permissible way that violates no one's rights secondly we argue that the transition from an ultra minimal state to a minimal state morally must occur it would be morally impermissible for persons to maintain the monopoly in the ultra minimal state without providing protective services for all even if this requires specific redistribution the operators of the ultra minimal state are morally obligated to produce the minimal state in the early 1970s Rathbun wrote one gratifying aspect of our rise to some prominence as that for the first time in my memory we our side had captured a crucial word from the enemy libertarians had long been simply a polite word for left-wing anarchists that is for anti private property and artists either of the communist or syndicalist variety but now we had taken it over indeed the project of spreading libertarian ideals in the United States has been so successful that some Americans who don't identify as libertarian seem to hold libertarian views since the resurgence of neoliberalism in the 1970s this modern American libertarianism has spread beyond North America via think tanks and political parties topic contemporary libertarianism topic contemporary libertarian socialism a surge of popular interest in libertarian socialism occurred in Western nations during the 1960s and 1970s anarchism was influential in the counterculture of the 1960s and anarchists actively participated in the late 60s students and workers revolt in 1968 the International of anarchist Federation's was founded in Carrara Italy during an international anarchist conference held there in 1968 by the three existing European federations of France the Italian and the Iberian anarchist Federation as well as the Bulgarian Federation in French exile the uprisings of May 1968 also led to a small resurgence of interest in left communist ideas various small left communist groups emerged around the world predominantly in the leading capitalist countries a series of conferences of the Communist Left began in 1976 with the aim of promoting International and cross tendency discussion but these petered out in the 1980s without having increased the profile of the movement or its unity of ideas left communist groups existing today include the International Communist Party International Communist current and the internationalist communist tendency the housing and employment crisis in most of Western Europe led to the formation of communes and squatter movements like that of Barcelona Spain in Denmark squatters occupied a disused military base and declared the Freetown Christian yya an autonomous haven in central Copenhagen around the turn of the 21st century libertarian socialism grew in popularity and influence as part of the anti-war anti-capitalist and anti-globalization movement anarchists became known for their involvement in protests against the meetings of the World Trade Organization WTO group of eight and the World Economic Forum some anarchist factions at these protests engaged in rioting property destruction and violent confrontations with police these actions were precipitated by ad-hoc leaderless anonymous cadres known as black bloc's and other organizational tactics pioneered in this time include security culture affinity groups and the use of decentralized technologies such as the internet a significant event of this period was the confrontations at WTO conference in Seattle in 1999 for English anarchist scholar Simon Critchley contemporary anarchism can be seen as a powerful critique of the pseudo libertarianism of contemporary neoliberalism one might say that contemporary anarchism is about responsibility whether sexual ecological or socio economic it flows from an experience of conscience about the manifold ways in which the West ravages the rest it is an ethical outrage at the yawning inequality impoverishment and disenfranchisement that is so palpable locally and globally this might also have been motivated by the collapse of really existing socialism and the capitulation to neoliberalism of Western social democracy libertarian socialists in the early 21st century have been involved in the alter-globalization movement squatter movement social centers info shops anti-poverty groups such as Ontario coalition against poverty and Food Not Bombs tenants unions housing cooperatives intentional communities generally an egalitarian communities anti-sexist organizing grassroots media initiatives digital media and computer activism experiments in participatory economics Andy racist and anti-fascist groups like anti-racist action and antifascist action activist groups protecting the rights of immigrants and promoting the free movement of people such as the no border network worker cooperatives counter cultural and artist groups and the peace movement topic American libertarianism in the United States polls circa 2006 find that the views and voting habits of between 10 and 20 percent and increasing of voting age Americans may be classified as fiscally conservative and socially liberal or libertarian this is based on pollsters and researchers defining libertarian views as fiscally conservative and socially liberal based on the common United States meanings of the terms and against government intervention in economic affairs and for expansion of personal freedoms through 20 polls on this topic spanning 13 years Gallup found that voters who are libertarian on the political spectrum ranged from 17 to 23 percent of the United States electorate however a 2014 Pew poll found that 23% of Americans who identify as libertarians have no idea what the word means point to 0:09 saw the rise of the Tea Party movement an American political movement known for advocating a reduction in the United States national debt and federal budget deficit by reducing government spending and taxes which had a significant libertarian component despite having contrasts with libertarian values and views in some areas such as nationalism free trade social issues and immigration a 2011 reason Rupe poll found that among those who self-identified as Tea Party supporters 41% leaned libertarian and 59% socially conservative the movement named after the Boston Tea Party also contains conservative and populist elements and has sponsored multiple protests and supported various political candidates since 2009 Tea Party activities have declined since 2010 with the number of chapters across the country slipping from about 1,000 to 600 mostly Tea Party organizations are said to have shifted away national demonstrations to local issues following the selection of Paul Ryan as Mitt Romney's 2012 vice presidential running mate the New York Times declared that Tea Party lawmakers are no longer a fringe of the conservative coalition but now indisputably at the core of the modern Republican Party in 2012 anti-war presidential candidates libertarian Republican Ron Paul and libertarian party candidate Gary Johnson raised millions of dollars and garnered millions of votes despite opposition to their obtaining ballot access by Democrats and Republicans the 2012 libertarian national convention which saw Gary Johnson and James P gray nominated as the 2012 presidential ticket for the Libertarian Party resulted in the most successful result for a third party presidential candidacy since 2000 and the best in the libertarian party's history by vote number Johnson received one percent of the popular vote amounting to more than 1.2 million votes Johnson has expressed a desire to win at least 5% of the vote so that the libertarian party candidates could get equal ballot access and federal funding the subsequently ending the two-party system topic contemporary libertarian organizations since the 1950s many American libertarian organizations have adopted a free-market stance as well as supporting civil liberties and non-interventionist foreign policies these include the Ludwig von Mises Institute Francisco marroquín University the foundation for economic education Center for libertarian studies the Cato Institute and Liberty international the activist Free State Project formed in 2001 works to bring twenty thousand libertarians to New Hampshire to influence state policy active student organizations include students for Liberty and young Americans for liberty a number of countries have libertarian parties that run candidates for political office in the United States the libertarian party was formed in 1972 and as the third largest American political party with over 370 thousand registered voters in the 35 states that allow registration as a libertarian and has hundreds of party candidates elected or appointed to public office current International anarchist Federation's which sometimes identify themselves as libertarian include the International of anarchist Federation's the International Workers Association and international libertarian solidarity the largest organized anarchist movement today as in Spain in the form of the Confederation General del trabajo CGT and the CNT CGT membership was estimated to be around 100 thousand for 2003 other active syndicalist movements include the central organization of the workers of Sweden and the Swedish and narco syndicalist youth Federation in Sweden the Union Syndicale italiana in Italy workers solidarity alliance in the United States and solidarity federation in the kingdom the revolutionary industrial unionist Industrial Workers of the world claiming 2,000 paying members as well as the International Workers Association an and Marco syndicalist successor to the first international also remain active in the United States there exists the common struggle libertarian communist Federation topic criticism criticism of libertarianism includes ethical economic environmental pragmatic and philosophical concerns it has also been argued that lays a fair capitalism does not necessarily produce the best or most efficient outcome nor does its philosophy of individualism and policies of deregulation prevent the abuse of natural resources topic authenticity of libertarian goals critics such as Corey Robin described write libertarianism as fundamentally a reactionary conservative ideology United with more traditional conservative thought and goals by a desire to enforce hierarchical power and social relations conservatism then is not a commitment to limited government and liberty or a weariness of change a belief in evolutionary reform or a politics of virtue these may be the byproducts of conservatism one or more of its historically specific and ever-changing modes of expression but they are not its animating purpose neither as conservatism a makeshift fusion of capitalists Christians and warriors for that fusion as impelled by a more elemental force the opposition to the liberation of men and women from the fetters of their superiors particularly in the private sphere such a view might seem miles away from the libertarian defense of the free market with its celebration of the atomistic and autonomous individual but it is not when the libertarian looks out upon society he does not see isolated individuals he sees private often hierarchical groups where a father governs his family and an owner his employees topic government decentralisation John Donoghue argues that if political power were radically shifted to local authorities parochial local interests would predominate at the expense of the whole and that this would exacerbate current problems with collective action topic lack of real-world examples of libertarianism michael lind has observed that of the 195 countries in the world today none have fully actualized a libertarian society if libertarianism was a good idea wouldn't at least one country have tried it wouldn't there be at least one country out of nearly 200 with minimal government free trade open borders decriminalized drugs no welfare state and no public education system Lin has also criticized libertarianism particularly the right-wing and free market variant of the ideology as being incompatible with democracy and apologetic towards autocracy in response libertarian Warren Redlich argues that the United States was extremely libertarian from the founding until 1860 and still very libertarian until roughly 1930 topic see also equals equals notes

TPM Software Stack - Enabling the TPM2.0 Ecosystem in Linux - Peter Hüwe & Joshua Lock
and welcome you to our talk about the TPMS of this deck we try to enable the TPM support or ecosystem only on the Linux let's see what so we are more covering the user space side only the kernel side what we will be talking about today is a little bit about the background I think we can skip most of this to design the architecture of the TSS the open source implementation how we did get this to successful open source project and at the end we will show some TPA TPA TSS to use case and examples how we can actually use the TSS who are we my name is Peter Weaver nobody can pronounce that name even Jones so don't worry about this I pay time I work at Infineon one of the major TPM vendors as a senior staff engineer so I'm developing four more runs on the TPM I used to be TPM subsystem maintainer until Chuck who took all or took over all the work so thank you for that Chuck so that's why they retire this year and I'm a contributor to the TPM software stack as well I'm Joshua I work in Intel's open source technology center and been working on with TPM software stack for about six months and before that I was a long time Yuri project it's a contributor yeah and our main presenters missing today which is more or less Philip tricker he gave the same talk about it is a software stack at the Linux summit in North America but in order to present you the same content we more or less stole his slides and put it into a new format to present it to you maybe in a different format yeah so thanks a lot to filfil for putting all together the slide content so if there are any errors it's his mistake if there is knowledge is if there are any errors it's my mistake and if the if the spider good is of course Phil's contribution there so thanks a lot so who here knows the TPM who has used the TPM I think after the previous talk of charcoal the most of stuff was already covered a few things I definitely want to say still if you want to get more information about a TPM and how to use it and how it works and all that stuff I would definitely not recommend reading the TPM live respect as you first thing to do that's a 3,000 pages thing with additional specs and additional specs and additional specs in donatas so I would not really recommend it as a beginners lecture Arielle has put up some really nice training materials he has also wrote a written some nice book also something I really want to mention is the guys at Google did put up a TPM chasing a TPM JavaScript implementation which it's not on the solution I would have wanted to show it show it to you where they explain an interactive tutorial how the TPM is made up what the different components of a TPM are how we can use that and also it's a really cool explanation thing that they put up on their website there it's on github so you can even look at the source code and the funny thing is they are actually using our TPMS of the stack here and also a web base so you can just interact with it all through your browser and you don't have to install a stack or have a TPM or anything start exploring it yeah so it's really really pretty cool so a big shout out to go to the Google guys there so if we are always talking about the TPM to software stack I just want to make clear what we are talking about here it's the TPM to software TSS - which means TPM to software stack as defined by the TCG that's a lot of words for a simple TSS stack that's conforming to the TCC TCG specifications there are others stacks out there who which might be conformed to the total TCG spec or might not be conformed to the T statistic they all have their purpose they all have their use cases they are all good let the users decide what is the best we present here - TCG one ordered his cheek compliant one as an open source implementation done by a lot of companies which we'll talk about later so how is this design coming up as already said the the TSS is based on the TCG specifications so there is a big specification on how to write the TSS that's compliant to the TCG specifications as in inside of the cheap TCG the trusted computing group they are also called work groups one work group exclusively is exclusively working on the TSS design and specification and in order to come up with a good implementation of a good design of an API you of course have to implement an API to see whether it's actually fitting to use cases and this is how this project came about was small as a reference implementation that was developed along with the specification packet ezg so we could try out things in code and see whether it worked out or not if they worked out we could put it into the specification and vice-versa this has advantages and this also has disadvantages if you have something you want to fundamentally change in your design you have to change the spec so you cannot just simply develop and avoid and say hey this is cool you rather have to convince the other guys of TCG that your idea is really cool and change the spec and spec changes are always not so fun so the design goal of - TSS but the TCG is definitely a lay-up design which provides a lot of abstraction of course abstraction also means a little bit of complexity but yeah so so it's more model eyes that you have your transport layer completely different from your separate from your ap eyes so depending on how you use the data API is you don't really see whether you are talking to a device talking to a simulator talking to the TPS on Windows you have a lot of flexibility there it also allows you both programming models you can have synchronous calls or a synchronous calls you can do even event-driven programming and it's also designed that way that destroy that is GE or your vendor can impose some same defaults but if you are an expert on TPM and know every detail and what will change something you can easily change details so it gives you a fine grain control about how the TSS works also as with every good API or software stack it's layered so we really have a lower layer which is smaller less for people who are really into pain because it's small as a one on one to one mapping of TPM commands to a C API but you can use it on any kind of environments or if you have a really constrained environment you only need early Lipsy and you can talk to the TPM if you want to and on top of that we add more and more layers to make it more and more easy for that for the users to write their applications but of course the more common the more comfort you get the more dependencies you pull into your system so for the upper layers you for example need to have a crypto library installed on your system which might be hard on some on on certain microcontrollers this is the architecture design as defined by the t's G it's smaller simply rip off or out of the spec grids again to philip trigger for pulling it out of the spec so i did not even have to look it up into the spec which is great but it shows a little bit how does the holy signs layered at the bottom we see the TPM device driver which is not standardized by the TCG so we can do there whatever we want it can be anything it can be a simulator it can be the DEF TPM 0 it can be the TP a TBS on the windows or can be something completely different it's not really standardized there on top of that we have the TPM access broker and resource manager that part is more or less standardized by the TCG and it gives some flexibility around limitations the TPM has a TPM is a real resource constraint system you have someone so many key slots and if you want to have more than these keys law Keys available somebody has to pull the key out secured story stored securely put in the new key in and handle all that stuff for you that is part of the access pro/con resource manager it currently lives partially in the kernel and you can have if you want also a user space resource manager which we work happily then as I already mentioned the transport layer is separated from everything else this is the so-called TCG I TPM c'mon transmission interface TCG abbreviations are always interesting but that's probably a part of every standardisation organization but it's a really cool feature that it definitely separates your transport layer form the upper API layers and you can even stack these DCI layers on top of each other so what are you talking to the access broker or directly through to the device you can stack these on top of each other and then at an upper layer we see here three api's or API levels as specified by the TCG on the left hand side we have the system API which is really an expert layer which is really only a mapping of or one-to-one mapping of TPM commands to TSS commands so if you want to do a TPM to get random yeah you call a TPS s underscore sis underscore get random so that's all it provides there so it it allows you to call TPM functionality with from a C wrapper but apart from that it really does not do that much more it does some housekeeping but generally it's really an expert level API but you have to have it in order to enable certain use cases it's not dependent on any crypto so if you want to do some it make a session out in the authentication you have to do it yourself which is of course painful but if you don't have a crypto library you might be glad on top of that there's the enhance system API which as the name says enhances the system API it provides some comfort wrapper around it it helps you to automatically encrypt a few sessions encrypted it keeps track of your sessions you can easily exchange the TCG eyes and all that stuff but of course there you start to have some mail of course because allocates a memory for you you have to dependency on the crypto library so it gets a little bit more and on right inside the gray box great because it's not yet ready is the far P F stands here not for future but rather for future but it's still not ready yet the TCG is currently in the process of standardizing this API level which is a really high abstraction layer so so if my TP if my use case in sarpy is like three pages long it's one page in SRP and in fact it would be like three lines so that that's that the level you get there but of course it's not yet ready yet so I think maybe in about one year there will be some implementations or at least first drafts available and as I said this is the this is the problem if you're working with a standardization body you cannot simply implement something and say hey this is it this is it this is it this is it but rather you have to wait and work on the specification first in order to implement your code there's a little bit tricky there but yeah we will get there eventually and when once we have feature API I think it will be quite cool if you google for a feature API you will find a document you will find a draft document I guess from 2014 but I would not recommend reading it because it's definitely statement super outdated it will not bear any resemblance to the final feature API specification so that's a word of warning yeah how did we implement that so we have the system API again expert level thing want one mapping of TPM commands we use for this the so called lip TSS sous-sous for system API creative naming there which smallest translates the C types to TPM commands and backwards so it's really really easy you can use that on microcontrollers we at Infineon have examples available for our Oryx and X and C microcontrollers if you want to fit that on Arduino you can actually do that we did that as a proof of concept so the TSS can can walk on another you know microcontroller which is really really constructive really really constrained environment because we have a few megabytes and not really much horsepower there but you can attach a TPM to an Arduino if you want in order to to talk to TTT p.m. we also have the type marshalling lair therefore you have to know that the TPM sends more less compressed or Marshall data over the wire so in order to save some bytes here and there they compress data structures and send it in a more or less compressed form over the wire for for much simpler use we have that lib TS as mu and usually stands for marshalling unmarshal e which translates these compressed data back into consumable C data structures then the the enhance system API which was added in about April this year it's one of the bigger contributions contributions to the TSS deck in our case it as you can see I don't know it builds on top on top of our sis layer and the TPM mu the TPM does not mandate that you are reusing your own code but of course it makes sense to reuse lower layers otherwise you would simply just reinvent the wheel it also exposes all the TPM functionality so nothing much changed yeah but a bit but a big change there is that it takes care of your sessions and encryption of the sessions and this is really really helpful because you don't have to write a lot of boilerplate code again and again and again again for each command you simply say I want to have that command open my possession first and then you just pass an assessment session handle for the rest of your application and the session is carried over from command and in such as sessions are encrypted so you can have X or year at the F there you are actually protected against the TPM Chinese stuff so that's quite good there but of course again as I said you have to have crypto library some crypt alivers have seen interfaces some don't have a sign interface so it's a really really interesting topic to have to have the cryptid do dependency there and yeah I'm really proud to say that this was this work was actually sponsored by by my company and carried out by from over Ron offers research organization in Germany they had their own TSS implementation already ready their own proprietary and we took we're together with Intel talked talked to them and said what can we do to open up your SRP implementation and paste it onto the Intel stack and that's it yeah pay us some money so we did and with that addition of the SRP more or less the the usability of the TSS deck as we know it began because with this RP it's really a pain to write applications I think Joshua can can can comment on that with the SRP it gets really ok it's not not super easy you still have to know a lot about the TPM but it gets to a level where we intermediate developer can do some really good stuff within a short amount of time so this was also greeted by by internal and open source community quite a lot that we added at SRP layer because if you want currently want to write an implication please have a look at a lip TSS eases not below unless you are into pain so yeah and with the addition of the author of the Fraunhofer stack we also the whole community thing started to kick off but I will come to that later so yeah the one of the lower level one of the lower layer pieces of the statute ECT high implementation which is effectively the IPC or transport layer and it's nice if it's abstracted out in respect because it means that you can support TPMS remote devices simulators and that's all I've structured away in your implementation it's fairly I think in open-source circles it's fairly standard that we have decent abstractions at different layers of the system but in some proprietary stacks that's not necessarily the way they're designed so the spec sort of encourages that implementation which is always good we've got a reasonable amount of TCG I'm commentating Xin in our tsf stack nowadays we can talk straight to the device we've got we can talk to our access program resource manager we've just had a contribution to add support for Windows TBS which amazed me how easy it was to add that to our stack which is really a complement to the way the specs designed and the way the software SEC has been implemented thus far Facebook came along and dropped like a 650 line patch on the project and now we can build our stack that was designed for Linux on Windows and use it against the TBS which is approximately equivalent to our resource manager or an access broker daemon so that's really great we've also got a TC ti that's just being developed by Phillip who's been mentioned a few times so that you can use the Safi from inside a UEFI application so the UEFI spec has some TPM functions I think it's got like three three or four API functions for interacting with the TPM but it's fairly restricted so this this new to CTR enables you to use the four TSS inside you Eric UEFI and it's probably one of the best use cases for something like this are you rather than using their he's happy which piece I was just talking about and so just on the topic of resource management and as we've has been mentioned a few times a TPM is a very resource constrained it's small it's got relatively little RAM it doesn't have much space for non-volatile storage so there's a requirement to do resource management and the specification has these three functions for loading saving and flushing objects from the TPM we have a userspace implementation of a resource manager that can handle these tasks but we are working with chemical unity to push more of that into the kernel proper so that we do resource management in the kernel but the the additional thing that this demon adds which is it part of the specification is that it does access brokering so TPM has absolutely no notion of users or isolation of you know the the objects that you're storing in the TPM so this specification is for part of a software stack to implement you know some of the protections that we sort of expect in a standard most secure operational environment so I don't yeah that's probably always going to require a user space component but the resource management is moving into the kernel so if you've got a recent I think it's like 414 maybe kernel and you get you can you don't need they no longer need this demon component this user-space component if you don't you want the resource management aspects which is pretty good for some of them are lightweight use cases for a general purpose operating system Linux desktop and you probably want to have the user space daemon because it introduces the access brokering but otherwise pushing my resource management into the kernel yeah so let's have a look at how we got here because yeah when I first looked at the TSS project back then referred to as the internal TSS stack it was a mess and I talked to Phillip who then picked it up I met him at one of the conferences here he was sitting in the in in the edge of the room he told a little bit about this project and how he came about to it more or less all you had to Intel all the other former maintenance of the stack left Intel at the same time so there was nobody to ask nobody to care and yeah one of his bosses came up to him and said do you do you need to prove new new new tasks and he said yeah choose one he said him that his tech looks nice then his boss asked him do you really want to have a look at that and he said yeah I like it so yeah so he really describes it as a really messy situation back then and it actually was if you look at the first commits back then the implementation was not structured it was not maintainable it was really crappy to say not to blame but yeah it's it's it's it was not not high quality it was a single make file based project so portability was really an issue there were a lot of stuff in there that was simply not maintainable and this were the first task Phil took up on so he started to make it debuggable to add some debug statements to add a logging framework to use the right tools he choose for outer tools to do the configuring and all the stuff so a little bit more of Portability and also for packet packet management to get it into a maintainable shape of course there was still a lot of places in the code where he said I would not touch this with a 10-foot Pole so his decision was to simply remove it and say okay this is code I cannot maintain I have to delete it and rewrite it a big big part there was the resource management diamond so if you look at the previous implementation there also used to be a resource management 'man but he simply deleted it and said I will not touch that that's fundamentally broken I will rewrite that from scratch and funny-funny wise it actually got him more or less into trouble at Intel because people were actually using that quite limited resource management email but in the end he figured it out and got this new project working so really the first thing if you want to use the word of advice to other project if you want to turn your product or prototype or whatever you have into a real or valuable and and vibrating open-source project make it maintainable make it debuggable make it usable and make it package able not easy to contribute so yeah this is exactly what he did because he moved router tools things and writing some rapper scripts and make it bundling and doing correct shared libraries and all the stuff the project is now more or less ready for pickup by distributions it's easy to package the standard outer tools based package format and have some writers from wrappers around it and within a few minutes you have your district package ready which is quite good also we are using the semantic versioning scheme so every major number stands for an API break which we had recently with the to todo release so yes make it clear what your version number rings are referring to what they are expressing with the semantic versioning scheme we really can recommend that that really helps to distributions to pick up your stuff and figure out whether into any dependencies you are going to break with a new version also when Phillip took over the project project the testing was also a mess no surprise here it was a three thousand line single executable which had a lot of test cases intermingled with each other interdependent on each other so if you want to change one of the test cases everything broke so it was not maintainable and especially nobody else did or was able to add any tests to it so yes it was a large shop to convert all these single tests which were the interdependent on each other into a real test framework where you have separate test cases who run independent of each other we also added unit tests there with Samoa Phil is a huge fan of it he said I should add advocate for it because he is a real fan of it there's a learning curve but once you master it it's a really nice addition here and for the integration tests we run it on CI so so every bill or every commit is run against simulator using the Travis CI so every build is checked against a similar we have covered support so you have we have a really nice code coverage so modern open-source systems or open-source projects are all all about batches and and statistics and all the stuff and yeah if you add a commerce thing to a batch tutorial readme MD it gives the users and the distributors quite some confidentiality of how major your software is we have a code coverage rating currently about over 85 percent which is quite good for an open-source system I think so we have covered he static analysis checking we have scan but static analysis checking so we are doing all the high level quality measurements which we which we need or which we demand from from from such base technology because if the stack would be flawed in some some way it would be a threat so we are really pushing forward to have your high quality and this is if you are turning your own product into an open-source project this is something where you should go to to make it really maintainable and build some confidence with your users yeah and that's how we got it also up and running and there's also where you can find our stuff we have to hurry up a little bit sorry yeah we on github and vendor-neutral name TPM 2 software so it's not the interest AK anymore it's not the Infineon sec it's not a form of a stack but it's really the open source gbmt is to software we have to come up with a nice name definitely so so go there check it out we have a lot of projects there one of the latest edition was the pkcs 11 engine which is still beta and don't use it for production but please have a look at it and if you want to contribute we are more than happy for contributions and you can really see that the community is not made up only by two companies we have maintained us from Intel on RedHat and a lot of contributions from Infineon Facebook Alibaba G irritated even a lot of name-dropping there but it shows it's not a single developer thing there it is really a community effort what we are building there and this is what my open source makes up and even having two different companies standing here and giving their own presentation I think shows that the value we see in that project just quick we see an increasing time freedom adoption and distributions which is really good so there's the groundwork has been laid so that we can start to rely on this more in downstream software projects we just had a in June we had a major release 22.0 added compatibility with a recent GPM spec it added the ISA implementation which is made working with the stack a lot more a lot easier effectively and to one release in October added the Windows support which I mentioned so we've got Windows CI now so we build our entire stack on Windows as well as lakhs every time we have a commit and we see if there's any breakage and and Windows changes relatively minimal it's really nice sort of impression of the stack effectively it demonstrates that we're doing the right things I think so I think briefly and talk about use cases and examples we we're seeing we see quite a lot of times people build the stack and then they don't really know where to start TPM is great it's a very versatile bit of kit but it's also quite a large abstract so security primitives that it provides people don't always know what to do once they started so we we look to the core functionalities what a TPM is good at and we've decided that the cryptography operations are something that we could help people sort of explore the TPM with a bit more and there are things that a lot of software projects rely on already whereas data station is a lot more abstracts especially in the open-source domain so we have a TPM two tools project which are effectively command-line tools that enable you to interact with TPM software stack without having to write a bunch of code first we've got fairly close to a one-to-one mapping to the TPM to commands implemented as executable UNIX programs so we can there are a really powerful tool for education and for prototyping so you can string it string together a bunch of CPM to tools and prototyper CPM workflow and if you dial up the verbosity of the tools it will also spit out all of the commands that it's sending to the CPM i'm receiving back which is also really useful in terms of education and prototyping we've we've got a major release that we're working on right now where we've switched over to the UN hand system API it's gonna na+ to more readily implement some desirable features and we're also focusing quite bit on improving the ease of use because these are an educational prototyping tool so we're looking at same default we're locking it unifying sure options so instead of you know that she meaning one thing in one tool and a different thing in another we're trying to make it mean the same thing in each tool we also have the ability to import and export objects in standard formats so here's a little example that I'm not going to step through just because we seem to be running out of time but David a from Facebook gave a talk at Fausto in 2017 where he demonstrated the latest state of the tools and he had like an 11 line example where he was taking the TPM data structures that we were writing out to disk and using DD to extract the parts that he needed to compose a PEM file and stuff and there are lots of options required because none of the defaults the were no defaults effectively every option that the command exposed you had to define a value for so in the in the next release we've we've tightened things up a bit so it's seven commands instead of 11 to replicate that example I'm using full long option names instead of short option names because I have to fewer options so it still fits on the slide I think we've made good progress and I think it's probably worth checking out so we have this an open SSL engine that we've just started working on really its provides RSA decryption our so signature zcta ECDSA signatures and it's really gonna be once it becomes a little bit more stable on you so it's we're going to be really nice to see distro ship that and be able to start using TPM out of the box so I've replicated the same example from the tools with open SSL engine so you can see that we can do that effectively the same thing in five steps and what we're doing in both cases are probably should have mentioned is that we are signing or we're hashing something with a certificate in the TPM and then verifying that it's valid with the open SSL so it demonstrates the interactive interoperability of the components and then another new thing yeah this is our latest addition to the family so to say it's the pkcs 11 provider based on the work by ivan tamar so we took that and developed it further with his permission current data is Beta Beta Beta Beta it hasn't still a lot of bugs but it basically works with open SSL mp11 kit so you can use it but not for protection please if you can try and use it and tell us which of your use cases don't work that would be great yeah so any Help Wanted please please check it out and submit your patches we're more than welcoming patches there I think we're gonna have to wrap up yeah yeah maybe the last thing there there are a lot of projects already using our stack there maybe the thing that's most interesting is decrypted a blocks thing where we're currently also working on to get to full disk encryption ready for production use so you can actually have that BitLocker use case you have on Windows in a Linux system as well we're still working on that also strongswan as one of the leading IPSec VPN client things there and open connect us using our stuff so this comes to our last slide yeah Oh last but one of theirs yes a little bit of detail about working with stack but mostly you know we'd like some help if you've got downstream projects that you think could make use of the VPN add the TPM come talk to us and these are some areas that we think it would be useful ready valuable to add TPM support so the list is not included you can add your product here and contact us so let's thank our speakers [Applause]

it's a pattern that revealed to me the more we struggle to be free the more we hold on to who we are the worse we're going to feel I care about what other people think but if I use that to look within maybe there's something I can learn so I don't feel so bad every day I'm trying to forget the fact that I'm going to die but if I were living forever I'm not sure I'd be a good guy so when do you draw the line the dream just sitting there and feeling fine going now looking for pleasure trying to avoid pain embracing or rejecting chain when you feet are buried in the sand the waves crash around you in you're breathing out just like the water jellyfish do the beach every moment of every day if you live in fear and apathe at some point you will come to say please just give me peace and I'm tired of the knowledge that I am going to die but if I were living forever I'm not sure that I'd want to be a good guy so where do you draw the line between just sitting there and feeling fine going now looking for pleasure trying to avoid pain embracing or rejecting chain going out looking for pleasure trying to avoid pain embracing all rejecting chain

Mycophilia in Action - Paul Stamets live (Universal Hall, Findhorn Foundation, Aug. 13th, 2010)
inquest has been to come to finn horn so i really feel like i've accomplished something by just being here i'm incredibly thankful and honored that you've come up to hear me tonight so i'm going to take you through a series of mycological solutions this is going to be really informationally intense i promise you that but you will get some very useful practical information that you can literally put into practice as soon as tomorrow or the db tonight um many of you noticed that the mushrooms are greeting us with just a heroic performance right now we've been out collecting mushrooms most every day for the past three days and there's a surge of mushrooms coming up in the ecosystem that's far earlier than i expected and most of you i think as well but it's a testimonial that the mushrooms are here to greet us and you know nature speaks speaks will we listen and i want to you know bring messages from the fungal kingdom and i'm just one person in a long lineage of experts going back thousands and thousands of years i also want to honor ann miller who's here tonight who has a local mushroom business and i strongly encourage you to support her because it's difficult to get the message out because we encounter something called microphobia the irrational fear of mushrooms and in the uk you know in scotland ireland and in england there is a more of a microphobic uh attitude than in france for instance or russia for they have a long history of uh finding and collecting mushrooms so um you know here we are today you know and the earth is in crisis i don't think you know i have to convince anybody about that and i speak to you as one voice i am paul stants but i'm a plurality of microorganisms that are unified together in symbiosis speaking with one voice to your communities and microorganisms and the more that we understand symbiosis the more we understand how nature has evolved to get us to the stage that we are at today fungi are critically important to the evolution of life in this planet and there have been so many discoveries in the past three four five years about how important fungi have been in terms of evolution that i kind of want to bring you up this path and it's the path that i have followed as well now a lot of you are probably wondering what's the deal with this hat so let me tell you this hat is made from a mushroom that grows on birch trees here it's called amadou that's the french name it's a fire starter mushroom the latin name is foamy swamitarius and allen our wizard of the woods uh was kind enough to give me a little pamphlet and he's an expert on this mushroom as well and it's a fire starter mushroom and it's a wooden conk a little hoof shaped mushroom that grows on burst trees and this mushroom enabled the migration of humans out of africa there's no doubt several hundred thousand years ago we came out of africa we all are africans at heart and we migrated north and we discovered something new called winter oops and so this mushroom would allow for the portability of fire you can hollow this mushroom out put embers in the fire inside of it and carry fire for days and the fire keeper of clans is what we know ceremonially they have an important role but from a practical point of view and not too many thousands of years ago they're actually critical for human survival as we migrated into europe we discovered winter we went to cage and if you could not keep fire alive your clan or your tribe would perish so the fire keeper was absolutely critical to human survival so this mushroom when you boil it in water it starts to delaminate and you add lye or you add ashes from a fire and then you can separate this mushroom into fiber and some of you may have heard of it known as german felt and the the fiber that the mushroom would be pulled apart that's actually mycelium you'll hear a lot about mycelium and that fabric then is is mashed and felted and then it's heated and it's like hair curls a little bit when it shrinks under heat and it gives us this nice nice texture so some ladies in transylvania still are making these hats now over thousands of years and this is yet another example that the knowledge incessantly passed down from generation by generation just hangs on a very thin thread of individuals who have this knowledge who can pass it down so um this mushroom was essential to human survival and i'm going to present to you a cast of fungal friends and characters that i think are equally as important so i want all of you to hold on to your hat as much as you can and let's go on a magical mushroom mystery tour i think the way in the future is the way to be able to follow the path of my salon and here is our beautiful plan coalescing out of stardust 44.5 billion years ago and the entire planet land masses are covered with the mycelial networks i want to pay first respect my elders dr alexander smith was the foremost mycologist in north america uh dr daniel stuntz and dr michael bu these are the three of my mentors these two gentlemen that now passed on to the other side and they were extremely kind to me when i was 17 18 years of age i first met them and they took me under their wing and i'm thankful that i was i was mentored by some of the greatest scientists in the field of mycology who's ever walked this planet so this is all more remarkable because when i was 19 20 years of age this is what i look like you can draw your own conclusions so the major mycelium is triggered into mushroom formation through a series of environmental habitat triggers once nutrition has been gathered then typically a drop in temperature that coincides with it with introduction of rain or water the mycelium wicks up to the surface and exhales carbon dioxide inhales oxygen just like we do and then um these mushrooms most mushrooms are phototrophic photosensitive they have no chlorophyll but they respond to and grow towards light so those four environmental stimuli is what triggers mushroom flushes to occur and so this is a baby primordium as we call it deriving out of the sea of mycelium and then very very rapidly it expands into into a mushroom now this is a almond portobello it's called agaricus brazilian is a potent medicinal mushroom but it has the classic stem gills and the veil predicts the gills and falls and we have a beautiful ham and mascara down here and this is a red top mushroom the gold dots and i was very happy we picked this yesterday and mushrooms go against gravity it's called negative geotropism and i was hoping this would happen and it did i was really happy uh because i told daniel and alice analysis when you pick these little amenities where they're young you lay them on the side they've been picked up off the ground laying aside on a dish and then overnight they'll continue to grow even though they detach from the ground they'll re-structure the the mushroom and so it'll develop into full maturity and it grows against gravity so it's a fun thing for you to play with your your kids and your friends you can never be poisonous from the most deadly poisons to mushrooms by touching it it's not true so you know don't have a fear of touching mushrooms i always told my children all mushrooms should be cooked only daddy and mama cooked mushrooms and if you want to touch mushrooms go ahead and so my kids with some of the biggest deadly poisonous mushrooms i get really excited well that's great but they always know that you always cook mushrooms and so they never had the inclination of putting mushroom in their mouths because you shouldn't pick these mushrooms wrong so but mushrooms have many other different forms and this is where dusty and i go to church on sunday my wife dusty is not here today in in in body but she's here in spirit she's a huge part of my life a huge part of our success so i know i want to definitely let everyone know that she's uh you know there's two legs in this in this entity here and without her i could not i've done anything that i've been able to accomplish but dusty and i spent a lot of time in the old growth forest of washington state where we live and um the olympic peninsula is like a country of old growth forest and i like this photograph a lot because of the thin trail of going through the old growth forest and i think there are steps across the landscapes of nature have to be taken very very carefully so this is the front cover of my book and i had a friend of mine and gutter designed this cover because i wanted to show the cross-section of nature all plants are part fungi science april july 15 2005 that was the title of the article and plant biologists when they were taking tissue cultures of plants you know any plants they would keep on finding these fungal growths this mycelium growing they thought it was contaminants for a very long time and now we do know for from dna sequencing that all plants are embedded in fungi now we know about the saprophytic mushrooms to grow on logs you've all seen those turkey tails and oyster mushrooms and the wood cots and there are mushrooms that can kill trees like armillaria root rot mushrooms can kill trees and then the mushrooms can grow south infinitely so you have parasitic mushrooms you have separate mushrooms you have mycorrhizal mushroom mushroom species that grow and extend the root zones and we'll be talking about those expanding the root us hundreds of times and then you have a group called the endophytes and the endophytic fungi are particularly interesting and has gotten scientists extraordinarily excited they're going to be up to 200 mushroom associates around the surgery in its lifetime so there are guilds of these mushrooms going around the roots of the trees inside the tree itself and on the leaves there could be hundreds upon hundreds of endothelial fungi now a good story about individual fungi came out about eight years ago when researchers walk in yellowstone hot springs around old faithful has anybody here been to yellowstone hot springs like i'm old faithful it's amazing you should please go there before it blows up it's a giant volcano but i'm not yellowstone uh in the hills in the hospital faithful you walk the boardwalks there's a steaming uh pools and the water is extremely hot and there's grasses growing in water that's 160 degrees in temperature so scientists wonder how is that possible that's scalding uh hot hot water they took the plants out they put it into a petri dish they grew up the plant the grasses and then vitro propagation the laboratory and they found a fungus as a contaminant they thought they threw the contaminant away they purified so to speak the the plant cells they grew just the grasses out they planted the grasses in in in sterilized soil they grew their plants up and they all died at 105 degrees they said that's weird and so one mycologist a lady always seems to be a lady i said you know that may have not have been a contaminant let's look at that more carefully and then she discovered that it was an endophytic fungus called curvilaria if you have notebooks this is a real good one to write down curbularia c-u-r-v-u-l-a-r-i-a turbuleria is an endophytic fungus that grows in the stems in the stems and in the leaves of hundreds of species of plants and the kirby laria when they joined back this fungus back into the grass and then they grew the grass up in the laboratory all the grass survived 160 degrees fahrenheit so it gave thermal tolerance drought resistance heat tolerance to the planet okay so we fast forward to two years ago now they took that fungus and they put it into a culture library and the american type culture collection in the united states is a big cultural repository where they keep frozen cell lines liquid nitrogenous like that's kept frozen and so they ordered the same culture of curbularia and they wanted to work with tomato plants because it turns out the curcularia is in tomato plants and they got the curvillera culture which is the culture from yellowstone that had thermotolerance demonstrated by many other scientists they joined it with the tomato plants they grew up all the tomato plants they all died 105 degrees unfortunately at the original laboratory they still had that culture up on a shelf that they never put into cold storage this is very counter-intuitive because you think you freeze things or put them in big deep storage you preserve them so when they look at that culture compared to that same culture that was put into the deep freeze they found something remarkable the culture of the fungus had a virus and we now know that the combination of the virus the fungus and the plants growing together gave thermal dominance it's one of the first beneficial viruses that have been discovered and i give talks to a lot of doctors i'd like to open my talks how many doctors here can name a beneficial virus the viruses are more plentiful and diverse than any other microorganism microbe in the in on this plant and yet we know we only know what viruses there are through the pathogenic symptoms they create so viruses can be very beneficial and so think about the viruses and plants and fungi all working together as a consortium okay so here we go okay so and these hemlock trees are going in the oil both forest my wet dusty beautiful douglas and and hemlocks here but these hemlock trees are run on rotting logs they're called nurse logs and it's an indicator of an old growth forest environment scientists wanted to know how is it possible that these hemlock trees could photosynthesize so when they took these hemlock trees and they put them into a greenhouse setting the same amount of light all the trees died so how are the trees getting their nutrition arnold arnold branson simard two scientists 1995 1998 they radioactively tagged carbon and nitrogen and they found something astonishing that alder trees and aspen trees and cottonwood trees will violate mycelial networks transfer nutrients to developing conifer trees over hundreds of feet up to 14 of the sugars these trees need are coming from alder trees hundreds of feet away by the my soil networks that was an epiphany to scientists because the scientists realized that mycelium has a mothering influence budgeting nutrients to guarantee the plurality and biodiversity of the plant communities and so these fungi are now not looked upon as being temporal custodians but long-term parents trying to guarantee that the diversity of the ecosystem remains intact so an excellent book by smith and reid this is the obviously the rings but all of this is mycelium the mycelium mycorrhizal fungi bring in nitrogen and phosphorus uh two limiting compounds obviously the plant growth and the mycorrhiza the plants then secrete sugars that give that are point specific so when you see these little nodes here of attachments this is an active transport system where the plant is getting phosphorous and nitrogen and in benefit the plants giving the fungus sugar so the mycelium grows out very very rapidly an example of two trees planted on the same day without mycorrhizal fungi with mycorrhizal fungi two maple trees um and so when you go into the forest i like to tell people when you see it setting like this if you remove all the cellulose all the lignin all the carbon you know that's plant-based from this vista what would you see you can see the exact same outline if there's only my cylinder that was left my cylinder is virtually everywhere it won't be the same color but it's exactly the same shape so this is me standing on one of the giant logs will come back to these trees that that fall because of these fungi which i've paid a lot of attention to in my time but let's come and talk about mycelium this is a rhizomorph of mycelium is braided it can hold more than 30 000 times its mass so when the mycelium goes through a habitat it grips the habitat and walking in the woods around here several times there's this bounce factor and as i walk into the woods i feel bouncing underneath my feet and i just know it's just rich in my cylinder so the mycelium holds substrates together and prevents erosion and as bizarre as the field of like ecology can get here's the first underwater mushroom the first mushroom discovered that grows underwater called santarella aquatica three friends of mine robert cove and jonathan frank and darwin southward robert cookman was a hydrologist in southern oregon walking the rogue river and he's walking and measuring uh water flow or looking at at the trout in salmon uh health and looked down and saw these mushrooms growing underneath you know underneath the water in the gravel and the water is flowing fast this is a fast moving stream he couldn't believe his eyes he found three or four more he got excited he picked them he took him back to the local university made some phone calls and if he had called me i would have said the same thing the other mycologist said you probably found a mushroom that fell into the water it was on a stick and you know you found the mushroom was going to water okay but he goes no no you don't understand so he's actually quite depressed he went back and and then did his work he got back the next year he found hundreds more he goes okay i got to bring these scientists up here to let them see this so we brought other scientists up and sure enough this is the first underwater mushroom that's been discovered and bubbles form the spores are in the bubbles and the bubbles goes downstream so what is the role of this mushroom within the ecosystem you know we don't know but we were able to get this in culture and it's a good thing we did because because of logging now siltation now has has clogged that ecosystem and that mushroom is on the brink of not being able to be discovered again so this is sort of my life i throw enormous amounts of mycelium uh in culture and uh and i saved strange from near extinction so i specialize in strains that were habitats or in jeopardy and i go to those habitats and habitats and try to stain as uh say the fungal strains that are resident here's a mushroom that grows in the dark it's called mycenacorphus this is an undoctored not photoshopped this is exactly you know what the image looked like it was with kodachrome 400 print film it's a luminescent mushroom and the mycelium that luminesces at night and attracts insects and so the it is a really complicated science because you're trying to find out what species that luminescent mushrooms attract with insect populations as many of you know lots of insects are very active at night less predators around and but they're they're attracted to fluorescing mycelium and by picking up the mycelium is one way of the bugs spreading the spores and the mycelium the new habitats so we grow lots of oyster mushrooms we wrote on straw day 21 day 23 a day 25 and the mushrooms have a very strong immune system up until sporulation the mushrooms prevent bacteria from growing on them they host defensive resistance they produce natural metabolics but upon sporulation the spores go out and then the mushrooms give them salsa they've opened themselves up to a bacterial contamination quote unquote we call it that but in fact they set the stage for bacterial communities and i propose to you that the the generations of bacterial communities growing on rotting mushrooms are absolutely critical for the plants that are growing that are benefiting from these mushrooms and as the plants grow they can get larger they can create the twigs the leaves and the debris fields that then fall under the forest that feed the mushroom mycelium so these are directional ecosystems the ecosystems are directed by the rotting mushrooms that are within them so here's a russian species we found way too many of these in the past few days and this is pastor's prime it's rotting but as it rocks its spores begin to germinate now a lot of other things are going on here as well but the mycelium then grows and then the mycelium goes under underground and a single cubic inch of soil can have more than eight miles of mycelium i estimate that my foot covers around 300 miles of my cylinder that's how pervasive and infused these habitats are and any of you can go outside and take tip over any log and you'll see these vast networks of mycelium that are literally growing underfoot and i propose to you that these membranes are sentient they're aware that you are there they react to catastrophia and as you walk across these mycelial landscapes and membranes that are virtually under every footstep the mycelium senses that you are there and responds in kind so i spend many years in front of the scanning electron microscope this is one of my electron micrographs my cylinders are beautifully articulated and indeed it's a filtration medium it's a biofilter and so there's a flow of nutrients that get captured into this wonderfully articulated bicycle network and so it becomes like a physical filter but also in water flows these swell cavities they become little bladders and as they swallow water then the antibiotic properties of the fungi select the bacterial communities that grow in these little micro cavities again setting the stage you know for the bacterial communities and these are the constructs of the food web and then as the water is released these little bladders they release them one at a time so mycelial habitats hold water together you have a lot of sand and in your habitat here the more mycelium you can go in into your soil the more water retention that you have and so the mycelial membrane and i looked at it and it's so fascinating to me because we have five or six skin cells that protect us from infection the mycelium is only one cell wall thick surrounded by hundreds of millions of bacteria per milliliter of water i think the mycelium can grow into thousands and thousands of acres as these bladders then empty and they become high humidity environments a second stage population of organisms begin to grow all controlled by these micellar networks and so when you look at these micellar networks they have something unique and that they're extremely well cross-networked and computer engineers have approached mycologists now for is that this branch here is broken there's an alternative pathway for transferring nutrients as and so if there's breakage it's crosslinked computer scientists will call this hot points or the nodes of crossing the more integrated a network is the more resilient it is to kind of strong field if it's broken somewhere in the network it's able to still function and so these are photomicrographic movies by my friend patrick hickey and he's a mycologist uh uh in edinburgh and the mycelium first conquerors and then across hatches so first is territorial coverage and then it begins and then it begins the network and this this microscopic by patrick is absolutely phenomenal we did not know prior to this time what the networks did did this these are common nuclei bundles of nuclei that are bursting this is over about 40 minutes of time these are transportation systems and the nuclei shoot down the networks they can cross they can share information the mycelium the nuclei don't all go in one direction actually some of them back channel and so at the tips of the mycelium can be millions and millions of nuclei that are sorting out so in this room for instance there could be hundreds of trillions of end branching of my cellular network the size of the stage and the mycelium only needs to find if it encounters a new toxin a new food source a new insect and cannot has never seen it before never encountered it before that recombination of nuclei will can come up with a new enzyme sequence a new way of digesting that food source if it is successful that information is back channeled into the entire network so the network on the far side of the stage is now acquainted with the genetic memory of the enzymes necessary should it encounter the same food source these things are self-learning they're self-teaching and they're extremely elegant in their design so the mycelium produces enormous amounts of water chocolates and these water droplets are enzymes acids hormones signaling compounds that we're trying to figure out antibiotics and all sorts of sugar based complexes especially grommet ones and the london englands and these sugar-rich complexes the mycelium in advance of contact will secrete these and uphydrate the habitat make it wet and then as the mycelium grows into that now moistened habitat it'll actually re-absorb its polysaccharide sugars that prior to this point was shielded off and it re-incorporated incorporates it directly back into this mycelial network these are exquisitely designed to cover uh great geographies an example of some of the the jelly-like substances that the mycelium produces and upon the mycelium rides many bacteria and the bacteria sometimes can be parasitic to the mycelium oftentimes it's symbiotic it's growing in a symbiosis as a form of mutualism and a friend of mine who works in a genetic laboratory in southern california his name is yuri gorby when he saw my micrographs he got really excited because we were both into networks and he's a specialist on bacterial slimes and these are rods of bacteria and you've all seen slimes in the ditches and whatnot and that biofilm that you're seeing these bacterial slimes are basically bacteria held together with these filaments and so what yuri did which was so fascinating and the mycelium harbors those bacteria and so we're looking now at the unification of bacterial and fungal networks infusing through and upon each other and how this consequently affects down downstream ecosystems so i could not help but look at these mycelial networks and realize there's no neurons they resemble the organization of dark matter most of you have heard that 95 of the matter in the universe cannot be seen but it conforms to string theory and this is this is millions of light years across and dark matter also conforms to the same muscular archetype and the organization of dark matter and this is a from the scientific american is 170 000 galaxies in this deep field microscope field telescopic image from the hubble telescope and the dark matter uh unifies these galaxies together so i see this as the mycelium as a universal archetype and the archetype is shared with by myceliums both by our neurons um both uh by the computer uh internet uh and by dark matter and i believe the invention of the computer internet is an inevitable consequence they've previously proven that we look at a successful model networks survive networks are resilient net networks learn and i think we were heard from here today because of them so the computer internet is the diagrammatic representation from the op project it also conforms to this the same type of network theory so let's go back in time so the earth formed 4.5 billion years ago coalesced out of stardust and then about 3.5 million years ago the first organisms were beginning to emerge in the oceans the first organisms that came to land were fungi they came to land about 1.3 billion years ago and plants followed several hundred million years later fungi were able to come to land because they produced very interesting acids and it goes to what's called the mineralization of rocks you've all seen lichens and lichens are fungi and algae jointly join together they grow on rocks well the fungi produce oxalic acids and they pull minerals out of rocks iron calcium manganese and these are actually calcium oxalate crystals that the mycelium actually pulls out of the rock pock marks the rock and then the rock now has little micro cavities that water sits in and the rocks become less better they have less tensile strength they begin to break apart and the first steps of rocks becoming soil and so oxalic acid is two carbon dioxide molecules joined together i call it an oxalic acid then grabs calcium combines with oxygen becomes calcium oxalate and so these fungi's ability to mineralize rocks they actually munch and degrade and consume rocks which is really mind-blowing that a fungus would eat a rock but now we know this is also true and so when i find rocks and i tip them over and find with my solar networks i thought that first of all there's cool and there's water there and much like something's happy and then i started looking a lot more closely i started finding rocks like this and we got the mycelium actually reaching up on the sides of the rocks and then the bottom side this rock fell down it clips so it can go chasing down but i left this nice little footprint here but mycelium munches rocks in the first stage of soil generation so 420 million years ago this sport has lived it's been caused but called by scientists proto-tech sightings now prototaxities 420 million years ago there was no bachelor plants uh there was the there were ferns but there were no trees and this was the tallest organism on land laying down about a meter high about three feet high laying down was the tallest organism on land now they found prototaxities in five different continents 420 million years ago the continents were all uh joined together at the time of pangaea and the scientists at chicago university of chicago um analyzed heart attack societies which was first described discovered in 1859 they thought it was a giant tree they didn't know what it was but through molecular analysis they determined that prototaxia indeed was a giant fungus 420 million years ago before they were there were animals you know there were some insects but not flying insects 420 million years ago dotting across the face of the earth were giant mushrooms 30 feet tall who knew so these fungi dominated the landscapes obviously would be attracting lightning there's a lot a lot more electromagnetic radiation back then you can speculate as to what what that means but prototype studies now is known as a a giant fungus that occurred 420 million years ago at the time of pangaea so it's been found in quebec it's been found in israel in northern africa they're not too far apart back then not were they um and many of us i'm sure when we were i i myself i know and many of us here in the in the in the audience and we were younger and we looked at the images of earth a lot of us thought well it's like a puzzle can't you just put it together and the teacher said no no that didn't happen you know it's really funny that that's the prevailing theory now is because of continental trip you know they didn't come apart so ford and then the 250 million years ago at the time of pangea then the contest began began to separate into guantanamo land and the continents separated apart and of course that split the species apart causes speciation differentiation you know species that they're beginning to proliferate etc but we go to 250 million years ago and we had a great cataclysmic event now at the border the permian and triassic period 250 million years ago this very interesting phenomenon in the fossil record 250 million years ago prior to this catastrophic event the ratio of pollen to fungal spores was 10 to 1. directly after this cataclysmic event the pt boundary fungal spores were 100 for thousands of years there was no pollen and so now they just recently discovered that this fungus that that gobbled up the forest was is uh called reduviosporo reduvious sporo90s and uh great name but the fungus is extinct now but they found this fungus everywhere three prevailing theories are that the extinction event where over 95 species in the planet began extinct was due to methane hydrate outbursts we heard about that from vp just recently uh volcanic eruptions in eurasia or an asteroid hit the earth i don't see these as mutually exclusive the asteroid could have hit the earth triggering the methane hydrate outburst and volcanic eruptions that occurred all the same time so then we and so 65 million years ago we have another and we have not catastrophic event and as you mostly know the dinosaur one extent and another and this time we know an asteroid impact happened here same thing happened enormous amounts of debris jettisoned into the sky the sky was choked with that sunlight was cut off and fungi inherited the earth the plant communities died and those organs that paired with fungi funded did not require light in order for them to grow benefited through mutualism through symbiosis and so the lesson here is as we go through extinction events and now we've entered 6x the sixth greatest addiction we've ever known in the history of life in this planet this extinction event is a thousand times worse from a species loss point of view than any other prior attention event we have more species now but we're losing now species fascism we can find them so the lesson has been you pair with fungi you you survive the extinction events so this is where i live in washington state the southern pewter sound this is the columbia river this is canada up here in vancouver island we'll go up here later on and here's the columbia river this is oregon and here is where the largest organism in the world currently known gross so i hired an airplane a pilot and i flew there and this is a mycelial mat that has 2200 acres in size 1665 football fields three feet a meter deep is the largest organism in the world and it's one cell wall thick how is that possible it's possible because micellar networks are in constant environment like our communication with the ecosystem they're intelligent organisms they have genetic memories they have genetic histories they hold and reserve these enzyme expressions that they're ready to be able to use them they set the stages of the bacterial communities that then become allies and so these organisms are able to achieve these masses because of their very highly evolved evolutionary strategies i actually hired airplane twice i went down the first time couldn't find it um and then we looked at our at the coordinates again we knew we were there we were too low so i went up to the airplane we spiraled up in this really tiny airplane we went up and up and up and up and we're up about 17 000 feet and in order to get this thing on my camera viewfinder you know and i told the pilot and i said i think i'm going to faint and i probably said me too that's not a good sign and so i think let's go down so we go from sea level to 17 000 feet i had to be done that you know stage of course that would be different so there's my central mass also can form spirals and i'm very much into spiral forms and here is a spiral forming mycelial mat in a montana of the honey mushroom and this is a new species that i have yet to publish um and you can see that it spirals out as an accelerating wave so why wouldn't these mycelial mass thousands of acres inside form spirals you know forms that basic uh conforms to the basic laws of physics and we all know about tornadoes hurricanes and flushing your toilet so the mushrooms are triggered in the uh the micellar trigger in the mushroom formation there's hundreds of nuclei per cell there's rhizomes feeding the mushrooms that they're emerging so powerful mushrooms they can break through asphalt this is a shaggy main mushroom that you can break in your hand yeah it's so powerful it can pierce through asphalt so what does the mycelium do it takes plant material or animal material or primarily plant material the mycelium you know transforms it lots of things happen ultimately it feeds worms and soils being created so fungi are the soiled magicians in nature they're they're the boundary between life and death they regenerate ecosystems so here's our compost piles really happy the garden today see their compost bottles these are all shiitake oyster maitake fruiting blocks that produce mushrooms this is what these blocks look like about three months later this is full of red worms and so the worms are extremely mycophagious they consume mycelium preferentially and they transform the micellated wood into this super rich soil in a very very short period of time so this is an experiment that i did because the one test on bioremediation is called the worm toxicity test and you throw worms into a toxic soil compared to a healthy soil a hundred worms you see if they die they live and if they live they reproduce toxic soils of course they all die you remediate the soil and then hopefully they'll live and reproduce and so i went through the scientific literature and i could find on a single reference peer-reviewed or otherwise even the popular literature of the preferences of worms to my non-myciliated versus isolated uh wood this is alder sawdust this is polarisation by cylinder same day same moisture content same preparation everything's the same we put 100 worms we actually did this 700 we did 700 total we did this experiment 70 times so extremely uh strongly significant and we found aptly remarkable 43 of the worms stream directly to the miceliated substrate five percent went to sterile isolates how is it possible at this stage in the evolution of science on this planet there's not a single article describing the worm preferences for mycelium versus not myself how little do we know and this brings me to a theme that i keep on coming back to is that we make the biggest decisions at the beginning of the decision tree and that we go down the wrong road because of the prejudice the ego whatever circumstance is important that we always question authority we always listen to nature but it just boggles the mind that we don't know the preferences of worms over micellar versus non-micellar substrates why this is important becomes extremely significant in terms of habitat restoration and in terms of bioremediation worms finish the soils of experiments that we did in uh with the towel laboratories whom i worked with for a number of years is a a soil that's contaminated with diesel from a truck yard outside of bellingham washington and this uh soil has been had diesel and oil spilled on for 50 years it's about it's about 22 um hydrocarbons 20 000 parts per million and so there's an experiment and the department of transportation government agency was told by the department of ecology a government agency that you have a toxic waste site you have to clean it up or your budget will be raided by the department of ecology it will take your money as a fine so there's a lot of competition between the government agencies but they gave an exemption for experimental methods so we were called and we've been working on breaking down diesel contaminated soils and oils for a number of years and there is four pilots one pile is a control pile one pile is not out of bacteria one was treated with enzymes and that we have not put in our pile with oyster mushroom mycelium and so just people ask me can you break down oil okay what component and oil do you want me to break down can we focus a little bit better up there i just realized this i thought it was my bad vision but now we have the letters on the screen okay so there's the majority of these are carcinogenic and these are different uh molecular weights and so the the really heavy aromatic hydrocarbons take a lot longer to break down than the smaller ones they're big ring structures and you have to disassemble this is what these fungi do the mycelium absorbs the oil the mycelium actually becomes black the mycelium is producing enzymes to break down lignin and cellulose well cellulases and lignaces those are the enzymes that break it down well the mycelium also breaks down oil and we believe is this the tearing apart and breaking apart the hydrocarbons and remanufacturing them in the fungal sugars carbohydrates polysaccharides and so we came back to our pile six eight weeks later our pile is covered with hundreds and hundreds of pounds of giant bristol mushrooms the other piled dead dark and stinky and lifeless heart pile was now light in color which is indicative in fact that it broke down the hydrocarbons we went from 20 000 parts per million to less than 200 in about 16 weeks of time the other piles the control pile the pyruvate bacteria and the vital enzyme still remained at 20 000 parts per million now we had some really fierce competition on this a lot of people put a lot of money into the other experiments so they were they were quite quite upset that we had such a great success but something happened that was absolutely remarkable not only were the mushrooms huge this is a testimonial if you've ever picked oyster mushrooms anybody out there you know that these mushrooms are happy mushrooms yeah well they're really really big um and the mushrooms sporulated and they spoil it and attract insects insects came in laid eggs eggs became larvae and then birds came in and they brought in seeds and the mushrooms rotted and so we have bacterial colonies breaking down the oil then we have plant communities fighter remediation so these are the gatekeeping fungi the gatekeepers creates a domino effect where the fungi came to land first the fungi repaired the ecosystem first and then subsequently the bacterial communities follow and then the plant community's followed and the last photograph i don't have it but it's a total green burn of life and then arpaio is approved by the department of ecology and has been fully remediated we'll be able to remediate this pile in about 16 weeks when no other best method could do it within four or five years comparatively now we had other scientists screaming and i was saying you know i like to build bridges not burn them we're actually engaging bacterial remediation the mushrooms rock with bacteria so they need a food source the bacteria does so we're involved in fighter remediation because the plant communities are coming in but if you put those bacteria and plant communities in it at the beginning they all die and then the worms come in and then we do the worm challenge and toxicity test the worms all survive not only as they survive but they at reproduce levels so this was a huge sort of a milestone and micro remediation and has really um got people expired all over the world and there's 10 or groups at least now they're involved in micro remediation using these methods so you can take the crankcase oil out of your car and if you get an oyster mushroom kit for man for instance and then it stops producing it produces three or four flushes typically because what mushroom kids do then there's not enough nutrition there for the oyster mushrooms to grow anymore so you can take the crankcase oil out of your car pour it onto an expired oyster mushroom kit and grow more oyster mushrooms i would not recommend you eat these we analyzed the mushrooms there's no hydrocarbons in them whatsoever but because of the gears there's heavy metal tailings that are in the oil i think all of you know that and so mushrooms do hyperaccumulate heavy metals so you should not eat mushrooms along the roadsides or in heavy metal contaminated environments but the mushrooms you know i can use the oil directly as a food source and so i started because the bp oil still started you know going back to the beginning of the decision tree and i started asking some very basic questions well will mushroom my selenium float certainly should so i threw some moisture mushroom my slime on straw into an oil slick that i created in a little tub and absorbed the oil and then immediately in a few days i got this clear strip with the enzymes from the mushroom by something started breaking down the oil and then it broke down like absorbed a huge amount of oil and then all these bacterial colonies uh started forming now i don't have a photograph from this past few days but i've been told this water is almost totally clear the enzymes being secreted by the mycelium and broken down the oil to a state where the bacteria then can finish the trauma so bio micro remediation leads to bacterial remediation so we started creating something very weird uh and that is we started creating micro booms and these are hemp socks as a case of plastic initially but as a hemp tube totally the biodegradable full of straw on ocular mycelium so we floated with that wall let's see if they float and sure enough they float they're still floating today about 12 weeks later so the mycelium is floating i'm saying let's just watch this and am i stealing outgasses fragrances that attract fungus plants and i think most of you know that mushrooms flies and the fungus and i started laying eggs and then i have all these fish and tadpoles that started eating uh and surrounding the microboom just at sunset and left on so the micro booms are becoming this oasis of life where all these organisms are being attracted to the mycelium because it's so fragrant that oyster vaseline smells like licorice like anise it's a very very strong and pleasant animal fragrance so we said well let's what about you in salt water so we went out and put it down in salt water and i several mycologists said that moisture emotions would not be tolerant of salt water i said how do you know have you tried i don't know but everyone knows that saltwater is bad for mushrooms i know i don't you know i tried i said no so we tried so we put these micro booms out on salt water and then we started spraying the the micro booms with salt water and the mushrooms all developed perfectly fine oyster mushrooms are called the saltwater who knew i mean most mushrooms would be harmed by the saltwater environments three percent salt and the worst combustion was trying to be taller to saltwater so now we are designing these as the be uh into floating my cilial islands and be working with daniel and john todd and and uh galen and others and so the idea is to make these floating mice little islands of microbes that we should be spiraling out and we plant plant communities on aquatic communities and then my syllable enzymes then going into the environment you know breaking down the toxins will be feeding the fish populations the insects will be attracted to it so i think this again is a step in the creation of an ecosystem through evolution uh using mycelium at the beginning of the process and the booms then fruit with mushrooms which is always fun that come out in this case at the ends so i've been involved in several micromediation projects and this is one that i particularly like because in working with first peoples of makkah indian tribe in northwest washington state this is their sacred island it's a 21 acre island it's a burial site but the us government decided to take it over in the 1850s because it's strategically placed between the united states and british columbia and so this island here became a militarized to track ships airplanes later on world war one world war ii in particular submarines and so they militarized the ireland and they took it away by imminent domain within the united states that means they the government can steal your land and they took it away from the indians and then they had it for 150 years and then they told the indians you can have your island back well the indians aren't stupid they said you polluted our island you destroyed our islands that burial site you have to return it back to its natural form so this is what the island looks like today it's 21 acres almost no trees on it um and so the department of the us department of defense has to remediate the assignment and they've tried three other remediation strategies including trying to haul the soil because when they had the diesel generators here the big derrick would bring up diesel to run this island and that's what it looked like it was a total campus 250 people they've done this 21 acre island and they had diesel generators to power so they had all these antennas and radio towers et cetera i personally think they should have left it this way and give it back to the indians as a campus and they could have then done what they wanted to do with it but instead the us government decided to blow it up you know typical american response you know blow things up so they blew it up and gave it back to the indians and said their thanks and so after some negotiation the us government now has to remediate this landmark the cool thing about this is that we fly in the department of defense helicopters government military helicopters so we fly fly over with the native americans and we land in this little heavy pad here um and dusty my wife and i are there and you know i'm looking for trees to make wood chips so i grow my silly on wood and i'm looking around what am i going to use you know what can i possibly use to grow mycelium i'm such an idiot sometimes i'm looking and looking at it well come in the spring we'll collect mushrooms come in the fall so same area come in the fall and look at that salmonberry canes you know canes you know of berries and i go oh my gosh there's all these canes they're renewable you know i can cut these we can then go to mycelium we can produce the enzymes and break down the diesel saturated into the soil so this is my daughter ladina who's getting her master's degree in environmental science and migraine mediation um and so we went to and then okay well what mushroom species are unique to canes ah we found one morasmianis candida um and we looked at verizon have scandinavia and sure enough it produces enzymes to break down hydrocarbons so now we're amplifying the native strains unique to this island that have already adapted to the pollution in the ecosystem being able to amplify it so we take the canes and now we're chopping them up and i don't go through the whole process right now but in the past two weeks we've had some fantastic results we have six strains of mushrooms in this island we have several strains one in particular that's a superstar that can break down the hydrocarbons so we'll do two acres at a time working with the native uh the native americans you know and trying to remediate this island breaking down the toxic price we found turkey tails on the island do you have that as well and we found this aggressive this is one of our superstars that's a terrestrial mushroom uh that grows in the grass underneath the barricades so this is what we like to do is go into polluted environments find what nature's already elected you know cultivate those species amplify them put them back into the natural environment you're guaranteed that it's adapted to the season you're guaranteed that it's adapted to the toxins it just makes a lot of sense nature bats last the bases are loaded the nature of votes we should listen so that's what we do so this is where dusty and i live we have 20 acres on spookum inlet and here i'm in another airplane and i the windshield was kept on the way i couldn't take a photograph so i went around three times and i told the pilot i wanted you to you know drop the wind when i tell you and don't worry about what i'm going to do and he said what are you going to do and i said i paid you already haven't i so we went around and still 100 miles an hour 120 miles an hour i opened up the door of the airplane and had one of those slip friction seat belts that i didn't expect and so when i opened up the door of the airplane i still had i wrapped my hand one hand around the seat belt my camera in the other hand i literally fell out of the airplane but i didn't want to drop my nikon camera so i held on to the strap and i fell out of the airplane at one foot still inside the car and inside the airplane i'm dangling out i thought well i'm here all right so i wanted to take some photos i took three photographs and i took all my mic i pulled myself in out of the airplane and like in the airplane the pilot told me the first passengers ever left my airplane without a parachute somebody else so we put wood chips the reason why this little farm here at callus chickens and pigs which one about the farm they wore the double and we moved on to this uh in this inlet scooter midlet which is really rich in shellfish oysters and clams and sand six salmon runs come through here and uh the amount of pollution coming from septic systems was was shutting on the shellfish beds and threatening the salmon rooms and so directly after we moved there the sheriff shows up like a week after i moved there i thought that was fast i didn't think i've done anything illegal yet the sheriff's party showed up gave us a summons every lander is on the property on this index got a summons saying you get two years to replace your septic system that approved subject system will shut you down so i couldn't afford a twenty five thousand dollar septic system but i could afford putting down wood chips so i put down wood chips with little garlics and i inoculated it with a garden giant mushroom which grows really really vigorously it's the one that i highly recommend for finland now i will get you my sodium of it and unless you already have some from this region it's really important that you start growing this mushroom it loves wood chips and soil complex habitats and i put down the mycelium of this mushroom and this mushroom computer is huge huge size fruit bodies these are five pound specimens and uh and the mycelium becomes a biofilter and so the another fleet of vehicles show up at my place a year later and i thought i was really in trouble now and they said you're the only property owner that has an anomaly in our analysis you didn't replace your executive system correct i said yes you have more than the amount of chicken and pigs you had before you can see that they more than double and he said they use the unusual give a hundred fold reduction more than 100 fold reduction of e coli coming up for property what did you do so i took them out and showed them these beds of wood chips and that was a dawning of micro filtration using sheet mulches seat mulches are six inches to 18 inches deep we try to keep them aerobic we don't want to go anaerobic they have good poor porosity and we infuse the mycelium in little swales where the water travels the last release of path of least resistance so an excellent thing for remediation for cleaning up your grey water is using wood chip beds and not cleaning with a garden giant mushrooms but this is something that all of you can do you know starting tonight or tomorrow and it's seemingly unfair from my point of view doing this for 35 years that i can tell you in two minutes the simplest way to call the big mushrooms in the world is that you take a mushroom and it has these rising warts at the base of stem now not true with a cap so this works also for your paracel mushrooms the rice marks of the base of the stem you cut the mushroom here we call this a stem but there's people uh bears people and deer we don't we eat mushrooms you know embarrass here but what do we all do we leave the stem bloods alone we drop them as we walk oftentimes well if you're a mushroom species and you have an animal picking you off and discarding the stun butt this is an evolutionary advantage that your stomach grows because now you've been transported you know by an animal to a new ecosystem so you take the stem butts you take corrugated cardboard you soak it and you break up the stem butt into little sections a few inches apart and you wrap it up in corrugated cardboard put it outside the blackberry patch or wherever in a little shaded area wait about four weeks and then you have mycelium right the stem that's regenerating the mycelium the calves won't do this but the stem butts will and so the temple stem dots have this this chi is this key power that's within them that's phenomenal then it re-vegetates back into mycelium and then you put wood chips on top of the cardboard and the mycelium comes up in the wood chips why this is particularly important is this is immunized mycelium this is mycelium that is in contact with microbes that already has an immune system that's familiar with the microbial environment into which they're placed whereas if you take a cultivated mushroom from the laboratories that may be in the bubble syndrome it's been grown in vitro in absence of competition and absence of contact with microbes you throw it outside and organisms gobble it up the activated mycelium as we call it it has tremendous force of growth potential and so you grow this out and then we inoculated burlap sacks and the burlap sacks then run through the mycelium i still loves fabrics there's a few universal truths here that i'm going to sort of tell you what i've discovered is is same self-recognition the mycelium is a fabric of cells the mycelium likes fabrics on different orders of magnitude so if you have burlap sac or fabrics that are biodegradable mycelium runs and the more you can run the mycelium the faster than the the more my cellular momentum you have to eclipse barriers and to make things work so you can take stem butts and downstream from a farm producing nitrogen and e coli and all sorts of other nasty things or from a power plant producing pesticides hydrocarbons etc you can do burlap sacks and you can leave the habitat restoration so leslie and i were called specifically by the mason county conservation district soil conservation districts were set up by fdr for the great depression and to help farmers and landowners preserve soil and so one farmer was found out by this non-governmental agency that they were the source of e coli pollution that shut down the shellfish industry that was losing mason county washington millions of dollars per week and lost revenue lost wages lost taxes less money to buy food etc etc so we went up valley from this farmer and we found a native oyster mushroom or a maple log and before we did this we sent out 10 species of mushrooms for analysis to a food and drug administration laboratory to see what mushroom strength were best against e coli and we said well to try mrsa too staphylococcus aureus you all know about mrsa two bacteria and we did ten mushroom strains and lo and behold three strains here reduce the amount of bacteria for more than 100 million this is the logarithmic scale 10 to the eighth power 100 million colonies in a milliliter of water you know that's 23 drops of water 100 million colonies down to a hundred a hundred million down to a hundred is uh is you know ninety nine point nine nine nine nine nine percent inhibition of bacteria one of those was a pearl oyster mushroom and one was a birch polycore my hat is a birch polypore and one is a garricon which we'll come to but so we went to the oyster mushroom because we could grow those so we set up lines of burlap sacks downstream from this farm this is the farmer that was in trouble third generation farmer you know nice nice guy nice family didn't mean to get the neighbors you know shut down the shellfish industry everything was kept on the down low very quiet because it had the health department the government found out this is the farm they would find them you know severely so we went in there and did this uh installation of 360 per lapsack for wasting much mycelium and this is an example of what happens this is now this ditch the waterfalls have the least resistance so the water actually is flowing through here about like the speed so we put like 25 bags in the galleys and then we line the swales that are not steep we want more bags and this is before microfiltration and this is directly after now we did water samples up here water samples down here 900 to 30 1600 to 240 240 to 30. this one actually went up because we little backhanded found a little hot spot so we had to make sure that our samplings were far enough away from the back eddies but generally speaking of 10 to 1 reduction of coliform bacteria with 25 bags of mycelium and burlap sacs using this method that i just described so we have engineering plans now there's 14 uh districts soil conservation districts across the united states we have i think several hundred of these sites uh in now in play we have 14 in mason county these are designed to be fish friendly so the trouts the department of fishery got involved in some of these ditches actually become trout habitats and so we have installations now like i mentioned in several places in mason county they are storm resistant over the staking method that we have and these are our current sites in mason county all of which are out falls and pollution sites and this place here is vinsport washington for five years hoodsport washington has been closed to recreational and commercial shellfish harvesting and no other method they call this management practice the department of ecology anybody else could do could solve this problem we put down 25 burlap sacks two weeks later it was clean and e coli and opened for shellfish harvesting for recreational and commercial bad people so we found an end-run approach that no other ecological engineer had discovered using amplifying native species that gobbled up bacteria this is all something that you can do you know in this environment as well the burlap sacks didn't produce mushroom well that's great because now you have more stem bugs so you can regenerate the mycelium here by using the using the stem buds or you can plant the true the umbrella statue little ecosystem of native grasses in this case we put a double square tree in the center and then you could put it over mineral earth so if you want to take your sandy soil and you want to increase organic matter one thing that i would advocate if you do what we did here which was a solid bed of burlap sacks this case would put popular trees and then you inoculated with mycelium and then if you want to do the species succession of grasslands the shrubs trees you can do that or make it design your ecosystem using these burlap stocks where the wood chips become soil 10 inches of which is one inch of soil in two years and so that way you can build your organic mass by using burlap

Queijo World War II veteran U.S. Army Natick Veterans Oral History Project
good afternoon this afternoon is December 7th 1998 December 7th being the memorial for Pearl Harbor Day in continuing our veterans oral history project we're here at the Morse Institute library in NAC Massachusetts this afternoon we have have the pleasure of in interviewing Anthony Tony quo good afternoon Mr quo how are you doing how are you very well thank you could you give us your current address in sherard and you're married yes and your wife's name June and how long have you been married to June uh 48 years and do you mind my asking you your age oh I'm 75 75 and you do have children I understand yes how many three three children and grandchildren I have two two two grandchildren where were you born I was born in Portugal you were born in Portugal mhm but uh I came with my mother here when I was 8 months old my father was already here and in Fr in Framingham I'm sorry in Framingham and what brought your father to Framingham well they' been here before and my older brother was born here and what brought them here originally of course was a poverty over in Portugal and they they'd gone back for a couple years I was born there and then we came again in 1923 my mother and I came back in 1923 and what type of business was your dad in uh he was a he worked in in a Foundry in the Framingham foundaries M as a laborer MH and did you grow up in Framingham yes I did what was it like growing up in Framingham in the 20s I the 20s uh I can just barely remember really you know what about in your childhood well of course was a very relatively small town I think there were about 60,000 at that time uh I knew everyone in my neighborhood I guess we were poor but I didn't realize it at the time what part of Framingham were you living in uh Beaver Street Beaver Court actually MH and at that time I I don't want to assume but there were not a lot of apartment buildings there no NE no there weren't houses yes individual houses uh quite a few were two family houses and was it a close Community yes yes uh at be cor I Liv was very close they were about four three or four houses and we were very very close very friendly group and you're your mom and your dad moved here from their own country your your brother was he your only sibling yes and how old was he when you when you moved here you said he was already he was 2 years older than I am almost exactly so he was uh going on for uh two or three and you went to the Framingham schools yes what made you decide or were you drafted into the military what made you decide to join uh well there were two things one uh all my friends were were in and also I was subject to the draft I knew I would be drafted anyway and I had I felt the opportunity to to go in with the they had a program called the uhp I think it was the I'm Services training program and uh I um I enlisted but I knew I was going to be drafted anyway and all my friends were in my girlfriend was encouraging me to join to inlist was this After High School yes and how old were you when you went in the service 20 were you working at that time or were you right out of high school uh I got to Bentley's School of accting it was a two-year course and I graduated from there and I was working as an accountant or in an accounting office yes uh as an accountant in Framingham were you able to enter the service with any of your friends you did mention some were already in yes but no I didn't go in with anyone no so knowing that you were going to be drafted you entered and what was how many years commitment was that going to be for you it was just I don't know it was open it was open and did you enter through the army yes tell us about that you enlisted and when were you called up what month of the year was it uh actually it was uh I went in on November 1st 1943 and where did you do your basic training at Fort Bening Georgia was this your first time down in the southern states uh yes it was do you remember anything about it that sort of struck you as being different from what you were raised in no uh except that uh uh all the boys I was in the service with were from all parts of the country and especially the South it seems like they were quite a few of did you develop any kind of close friendships with your train other trainees I I was friended with two or three but uh after I left that group no I I didn't keep in contact with any of them and how long was your basic training do you remember uh wait a sec I think it was 3 months yeah three months yeah during that basic training did you find that there were any Specialties that you kind of rose to the top about so no it was pretty basic training and then after Fort Benning where did you go uh then uh the ASP program folded but even before that uh I was told I couldn't be in it because I hadn't taken any algebra in high school and uh I was sent to uh the 69th Infantry Division in Camp Shelby Mississippi uh what was it like at Camp Shelby Camp Shelby was pretty pretty raw you know where is U um in Georgia fo foot Benning Fort Benny yeah it was a modern looking uh installation with brick buildings Camp shubby as I recall it was like Tire Shacks there still Barracks but the outside r Tire paper and it was um you know hot and humid even uh I went there I think it was in in March uh and it was uh pretty hot and humid even then so was that the the humidity and the weather the change in weather changed in what you were used to was was that something that you had to learn to cope with each day yes but but really I wasn't very long because I was on my way overseas already really and did you know that when you were going to Camp Shelby no I didn't so once you arrived there how did you find out that you'd be going overseas well it was an infantry uh Division and uh I don't recall I really don't except uh that uh soon practically as soon as I got there we did a little little training then they sent me home on on on FW and I just knew that after that FW I was going to be on my way overseas you know uh so when you came home you did you come home to Framingham yes by train uh uh uh uh I think so yes I think do you remember coming home and what it was like to to see your family knowing that you were going to go off to war well I don't remember too much about that but I'll tell you a little later on I went home again before I was able to go home I'll tell you about that that's a little bit interesting uh well well okay should I continue on sure go right ahead well because then at uh Camp Shelby I can't remember how it came about but we were told that we were going as replacements uh although the the war in Europe um we hadn't landed on in Europe yet but I knew we knew we were going over to Europe someplace and um I'm sorry let me see so you went on Furlow once but then you said you were going to be able to come home again tell tell us about that yeah so then like I said they told us we were going as Replacements and uh and we came by train again uh and at that time we we were told where we were going but we went to Fort me Maryland and I think that was called a port of embarcation I don't know why because it wasn't Port of embarcation to to any place Anar embarcation meaning basically checking out of the states and maybe going overseas I guess yeah because uh there was some processing done there but I I don't know just what but then I think we were there about a week and incidentally I was able to go for a week for a day to see my brother was living in uh in Maryland in Baltimore and I was able to get out one day to see him and now your brother was a few years older than you two years old did he join the service at all no he didn't mhm no he worked with uh uh Martin maretta and and then with the predecessor T Nessa mhm okay so uh we were Ford meet about a week and then we were told again we were U going going overseas and we went by train to uh we didn't know where we're going but we went to Fort mile Standish right here in uh in Massachusetts which now where is Fort was Fort mil Standish was it it's it's uh on the cape Plymouth area it's on the side of the cape in the Plymouth area yes uhhuh yeah yeah so we were there now that to my mind would be a port of invocation of Boston because we left from Boston um but we were there a few days and we didn't do much of anything cuz we were just waiting for I guess for room on a ship to go overseas and uh but they let us they gave us some time off uh so I got excused and I th my way to Fram to see my mother and father and my girlfriend and uh and then I went that night I went back to Camp again each each time I thumb I in those days we would thumb quite a bit that's why I almost didn't remember about the trains but because we did thumb rides quite a bit and thumbing is something you don't see nowadays do you want to explain what that is in case people doing research seeing this tape have no idea what you're talking about we were just looking for a ride for anyone to pick us up and give us a ride and in those days uh people with a uniform on were picked up very easily and I and you would literally stick your thumb out right to try to see if someone would pick you up yeah those who were in the safe days they were yes now I wouldn't think of PE when I went up but in those days we did uhhuh yeah yeah so uh I was able to get home maybe three four five times from miles stannish to Framingham and then back again now you mentioned during this time that um you knew that you were going to be drafted and your friends had gone in and your girlfriend was also pushing you to join um yes did you maintain a relationship with her throughout your War experiences uh just before uh about April of 45 I got a Dear John Letter oh dear we'll talk more about that in in when we come up to the 1945 time so you were at Fort mil Standish for a while and then you disembarked through through Boston yeah but I like to tell you one little story uh so that that after I'd gone to Framingham you know about 3 days and then we told we were we were confined to quarters we couldn't get out so we knew we were leaving and uh that morning I think it was the the 5ifth of June uh we loaded on the train early in the morning and didn't know where we were going and the train kept clunking away and pretty soon I recognized some places is uh approaching Framingham and Don of C didn't go right by through Sheran Framingham and right by my backyard in Framingham yeah I looked you know that my house was there my neighbor's dog Duke was there that was the only person I saw you then the train went to Framingham uh and there it um it stopped and it changed tracks and it it uh it stopped right in front of a used to be an oldp Supermarket there and I used to work in that Supermarket when I was in high school and uh there was a u a girl woman uh that worked in the N working IDE she was the bakery girl she was breaking down boxes and um she lives a nict right now by the way and do you want to mention who she is yeah uh her name was her her maid name was Anne Jordan it's an Sebastian now and they they do live in ID I've never seen him since then but anyway the train stopped and my window was right where she was and I got to the window and I was waving like crazy but she never saw me that's so funny though so close uhhuh yeah so from there the train went into Boston and people were through Windows waving you know so forth and we went to the Ami base in Boston and that was again that was the fifth of June 1944 and then the next morning uh I guess I was in the the C inside and I heard somebody had a radio on and I heard something about France and uh Normandy and American troops and we found out that it was dday the the uh the U American troops that landed and British troops also Normandy so Having learned prior to going over that they had lamed on Normandy Shores did you also hear about some of the the loss of life or did you just hear basic information uh I think was more less basic information although as I and the invasion was only a few hours old then but as I remembered it was that we were making progress the American troops were making progress and they were they had established a foothold and uh that's uh that's about what I remember of it uh know up until then at at that time until then we thought we were going to England when we heard that we didn't know how this thing worked but we thought we'd go right to France and course and as it was what did you do were you put on a ship yes uh do you remember the name of the ship well that yeah the uh SS America mhm it was a converted uh um luxury ship I guess luxury linery liner used to be the SS Manhattan mhm and did you go into England from the US yes we went into Southampton do you remember what it was like on your trip over and was this your first time on a boat on a ship yes to both questions H what was it like for you other than the fact I was going to war it was very pleasant I really enjoyed it yeah um of course the ship was very crowded I don't know how many people were in there and um most of the people stayed inside but we were jammed in like sardines you know I don't know how many bunks there were you know so I spent most of my time I in the first day I spent most of my time outside night and day but uh in inside there was was Smoke Filled there was a crap game going on almost all the time in the uh in the latrine meaning cards or yeah both cards and dice uhhuh yeah so they were allowed to smoke in the inside the ship yeah yeah um and that was it it would took it only took 5 days as soon as the U ship got outside of Boston Harbor and that was kind of traumatic also because I used to go to antas on on those little boats and we went start off the same route you know just kind of you know part back memories so did did you sense looking back that you were a bit emotional about leaving the US very much were you frightened or were you ready for adventure for this war that you were going to be a part I don't remember being frighten honestly you know uh um I wasn't looking forward to it I'm sure you know but uh that's about about all I Remember by that so after 5 days at Sea um which you seem to go through okay you landed in Southampton uhhuh yeah oh soon as we left Boston high the ship began zigzag zigzag course and we were told that uh uh it uh it could outrun any German submarines and and zigzagging they wouldn't get a chance to to aim and and we've heard that from a number of veterans that when they were on the ships a number of them did zigzag so that it would be difficult for the submarine to focus in on a hit right uhhuh and did you have smooth sailing yes it it was in June it was smooth M yeah the only thing there I think twice when the uh of course the ship was blacked out you know I think twice the word came around that they cited a sub but if they did I never saw a heard thing about it I think it's probably just a rumor so blacked out meaning during the evening there were no lights right and would that also mean and I don't know what type of music or anything you could listen to or could you at that point in time I don't remember any music okay so no radios or well well I said the first day while we were still in Harbor I heard that radio announcing the invasion uh that's all I remember about I don't remember any radios or music so once you got off the ship what was your next step okay um again that was in Southampton and I remember people espci had children gathering at the dock and they were begging asking for candy for anything and we throw candy uh down to them um and believe not we were everyone gathered at the side of the boat that would face the um the dock to the point where I guess the ship was tipping a little bit and so they made us get away from the uh from The Edge then from there we went onto our onto the English boats U I'm sorry trains and uh we were a little bit we thought they were a little bit comical they were small they seemed small old compared to our ships and we kind of belittled it a little bit then the only other thing I remember is on the uh trains was that uh again when when when we stopped uh I guess were there some towns or something and the kids were gather again begging for candy and we throw candy uh at them did they treat you as Heroes do you remember they were glad to see us I'm sure were you able to talk to any of the people in the different townships that you would no no no and what was it like over there weatherwise in June and July um it uh well I was there about a about a month a month and a half and uh I remember the weather being pretty good when we first got there but all I remember after that was there were low clouds uh and kind of kind of dreary now we know that London had been hit repeatedly the areas that you were in did you see much um landscape ruin no because of the war no well uh see we went to two camps when we were there the first one was uh Camp Stacy something like that and we were confin to quars all the time although some somebody got out because one time they uh made us all line up and uh a captain and uh a woman walked up and down the file and looked at it cuz somebody had raped her somebody cutting out and raped her and did you know that was the reason you were being called out yeah yeah I don't remember who told us but we did yeah was that very common back then it's the only one I heard of one time I heard of them did they find the person I never heard any more about her I don't know if they found her or not m uh but then from there we went to a uh another camp in in Wales and we were there a few weeks also and you said you were confined to quarters so how did you spend a typical day well so-called training which which is really U exercises I guess you know uh and uh you know with our rifles and running and all that sort of stuff just to keep in shape yeah uhhuh and and you said you were in England and then Wales for about a month month and a half yeah mhm at that time were you hearing on a daily basis about the war effort at all we must have although I don't remember too well except for one instance there was one another guy that came to us uh and he had been over there as a replacement he had been wounded and he was going back again to Normandy now I remember he was telling us about the awful times he had and um uh and I remember specifically his saying that they would take Germans soldiers you may not want me to say this but they take German soldiers behind the hedro and and shoot them and these would be uh soldiers that they had taken as prisoners prisoners so they would shoot them yeah I don't know how often it happened but I know I remember this father telling us that when he was telling you this story was he telling it in a forlorn manner or in a bragging type of manner I think it was bragging mhm yeah and did you all believe him I think so I had you know a little skeptical but I I think I believed him did it really leave you with any kind of thoughts about what you were getting into yeah I didn't want to go he didn't want to go uhhuh yeah yeah but after Wales what happened okay I I think it was from there that we went to uh let me see that was Portsmouth I Plymouth M uh turn back for for Europe I might say this is we we were marching you know treading along going to Plymouth and the young boy joined me he came walking with me you and um he said that I remember he said that they've been hit by the buzz bombs that was the V1 the German weapons yes tell us what a buzz bomb is okay that that's a a mechanized non uh know didn't have any pilot pilotless um and and uh there was there was shot over from uh I I think the main launching sites were in either Belgium or Netherlands and I believe most of them were aimed at London and uh they had a lot of explosives they weren't as bad as the V2s which was were the see the where Escape me the real big things but uh B2 being larger than the B the B1 you could see the b1s and we're told that our Pilots could actually fly with them and then if they were lucky they could tip their wings and and knock them off course you know uh but the V2s they were um the speed of sound or or exceeded the speed of sound so all you knew was you know the explosion hitting and the V2 was also pilotless yes both were uhhuh do you so this young boy told you that his town had been hit yeah by the v1s uhhuh yeah how old a boy was he i' I'd say maybe seven or eight yeah so did you befriend him well this is walking while we were walking toward the uh boat for embarcation to uh to Normandy uh so he talked with me uh apparently he liked me I liked him but we kept on walking we just talked uh inly there were quite a few boats uh ships in the in the harbor and they they I think they all had those balloons don't what they call them now I should have read my story before uh but but they were to protect from being strafe by German aircraft so they were balloons that were correct me if I'm wrong hanging by Wire yeah they had a cable C them uhuh yeah and they would hang in the air you know and I think the way it worked is the German PL if they came into strafe they would hit the cable and uh would be destroyed mhm so there was that the first time you had seen something like that yeah but but there was a uh there might have been some better that's the first I remember anyway although I know there's a common joke you know saying that it wasn't for those balloons up there England would would have sunk from the weight of all our equipment and ammunition sent over so you knew that you were Bound for Normandy or you thought you were did you get actual orders that you were going to Normandy I don't remember know because I was a private and uh you know we get we get everything through secondhand or just word passed down uh but uh I'm sure we must have known although I don't remember anyone actually telling us did you get on those flat bottom boats well later the first one we could on was um was a Princess Margaret uh uh it uh it was a GE I used to know what that was but but but it's a private ship I guess you call it and the crew was all U uh were all English Sailors and we could fed yeah we could fed English food and and where did they take you uh they took us uh to to um Normandy to um Utah there's Utah Beach and there's Omaha took us to Omaha Beach yeah and from that we got on to one of those flat bottom boats we get on that and then onto the beach what was it like coming up to the beach front was there a lot of Devastation there or had that been long gone and it was pretty no there's still quite a bit of Devastation there were some sun ships we could see uh it was a approaching dusk I'll tell might as well tell you this I hope you can erase whatever you don't need of this but uh it was a portan dusk and there were they there were oh I don't know 50 or 100 German soldiers um in in uh enclosed in a wire enclos which had just been strung up there and uh and like I said it was getting dark dusk anyway and a German plane came over and strafed uh but mostly our guns uh were shooting up at the the plane and and they arkans would fire some of those fluorescent bullets I I I don't think it was every bullet but some so you could see the bullets going up toward the plane but the plane didn't get hit the plane just made this one pass and was gone and uh and that that's all I remember we get on to the beach and uh we assembled and we M at that time I think we' only gone you know the invasion went very slowly was way behind schedule you and I think they'd only gone maybe 10 miles in them when you arrived they were only 10 miles ahead of you uhhuh yeah when you when you heard the bombs and and the strafing do you remember the noise what it was like uh not particularly really well at that time there wasn't that much bombing there was a strafing and and and clarify for me strafing well well just the the uh the plane had a machine gun or machine guns it would fire them as it as it zoomed down on this Target and and and came parallel with the coast and was firing its guns strafing whatever was on the beach so did you get the sense then that you were really right in the thick of it I don't recall right at that time no so you got on the beach and you knew that other troops were only 10 miles ahead of you you were an infantry but did you walk immediately or did you get on trucks we we walked immediately and that first night we walked a lot uh and uh we must have been walking parallel to the front cuz otherwise it would have you know gone uh past the front uh and then I know I know we uh we wound up in a a churchyard it was dark pitch dark very dark and when we um slept on the uh I think it was a grave a graveyard right there at the church and the church was pretty well demolished but that's where we slept the first night during that time period that you were walking and going through what I would assume damaged Villages the church being damaged damaged also did you see any of the French villagers or towns folk at all not at that time cuz it was dark it took about the first day the first night the first few days uh well even after that no because we we did again we walked quite a bit uh I think a couple of days the and we were going through what they call replacement depos and uh it would be from one hedge hedge row one field to another no I don't remember seeing any French people at that time we did see them later and walking as you were what kind of a load were you carrying with you how how heavy was it I know it would be your own personal effects but how heavy was the backpack that you might okay at that time it wasn't that heavy compared to what we carried later but uh and I don't remember specifically but I'm sure we had a couple of blankets at uh uh they call a it's a half of a tent a two man pup tent I don't remember what they called it he or whatever it was uh I guess we had our rifles and some ammunition I can't even remember that for sure but I think that's said so we were loaded with stuff but not as loaded as we would be later and did you know at that time where you were walking too no idea so they didn't keep you informed just sort of follow oh no because you know there's no organization really we didn't you know we were Replacements uh and uh uh no we didn't know where we were where we were going that came a little later so tell us about that okay um sorry I can't remember just when it happened so at one point or other they they divided us something they said that this group I think about 15 of us were going to the fourth division the fourth infantry division and they must have gone alphabetically because there was myself my name is a Q There was a fell named quick also from Massachusetts someplace a guy named Pepe PQ a guy R uh Ryan uh so about 15 of us that were taken from the group of replacers that got off the boat and was said we were going to the fourth division as a matter of fact we went uh uh to the the 12th regiment and Company K so the groovus went there as Replacements and where was there was it Normandy uh in Normandy yes uhuh um I guess after we were assigned to the fourth division they must the fourth division must have sent someone to pick us up his name was Sant Ramsey I know because he was killed a couple weeks later uh with a blood through his throat were you there when that happened do you remember it yes was that like no knowing that this was one of your leaders that died in front of you well that we had quite a bit of that later on but um when he picked us up he was the sergeant but uh I we didn't know what he was didn't know he was a leader but he just came to show us to the where the company care the fourth division was so you would literally come in and replace a division and they would ship home no no no the division stayed there we just became a out of the division we just replaced people that were killed or wounded and we're out of there okay this happened all the time yeah yeah so uh again I don't remember enough if it was two days or three days later but we wound up with the fourth Division and uh um you know I wonder stop me that's right but uh again it was getting dark uh when we got to the fourth Division and oh maybe four of us went into the captain's tent and it there was a small tent I think it was a Twan tent also how we have a fit in there I don't know but uh his name was Captain gwinner and uh I could tell he even though I was getting dark I could tell he needed to shave he didn't have any indication of that he was an officer even no barowing or anything but he was very low-key and um very nice I thought and but he he asked of the let's say four of us over there four or five of us if any of us had any experience Mo with M the 60 mm Ms or light machine guns and um you know I remembered the time that you know the know in all say in the don't volunteer for anything because if if they're looking for those guys those are the guys get killed so but for some reason I put my hand up and uh and I was glad I did there cuz I W up uh uh mainly with the machine guns and 6 mlion Modas which is the fourth platoon of the company um so then Captain grer introduced us to our platoon leader Captain grer by the way was killed about two months later in the Hurrican Forest uh then our platoon leader was um Matthews Lieutenant Matthews and he was I only KN him for two minutes he was a real nice guy though I I he was young I think he was maybe 26 and uh he tried to put us at easy I remember because he uh tried to crack a few jokes you know and very lightly he could killed I don't know when or where he was killed also so a lot of the ones that were your leaders yeah let me didn't make it yeah this it's not as bad as this all but but still he introduces to our first sergeant who was a sergeant to Michael and uh he was you know I didn't know much about him it was kind of cold kind of a dark Italian fell and he was killed about a week later and he could he could shot a sniper shot him uh right through his helmet through his head and he went down down like that and then he took us to our section meter which of seen Grimes and he was one of the nicest guys I've ever known fed this guy he survived the war it's nice to hear that a few did right seeing all of this happen around you was this a big challenge to you on a day-to-day basis just staying alive yes it certainly was that was that was our main concern really there was nothing else that mattered there were times you know I know we're not going to go into this but like in the herin forest where we were pretty hungry and and didn't have any water but I main concern was staying alive now tell us about herley Forest Perkin sorry can you spell that yeah H R I think it's Hui t g n and where was that that's in Germany it's on the SEC feet line actually but that was not until November so what happened between June and November were you okay marching North uh well or I'll make this as fast as I can but um right after we met you know forgot there with Captain gner and lieutenant and so forth um we were told there was going to be a big break breakout out of St Lou of St Lou we American and British troops were stuck there at St Lou and um I think it was the second day we were there and we were told that this was going to happen they s the Americans had a an amazing um uh number of uh bombers flew over I I have some of this sort of memorized but like there's a wave of 12200 planes that came by and we you know got up and looked at them and it was as far as you could see back there were planes uh and they went beyond us and bomb drivy and then after after they had gone by and you know how could survive all that 350 fighter planes came and they strafed then when they're going by another 1,200 Fighters came by uh I I'm sorry I mean another 1200 bombers came by and after that 350 more Fighters and then we had I think it was about an hour of artillery bment so they were really softening up the uh uh so that's when we Americans did break out of St L and St L is in in in Normandy in Normandy yeah and uh our division uh supposedly LED yeah it was our division led the breakout out of St LW but it wasn't our regiment it was the eighth regiment so they were a little bit ahead of you uhhuh yeah but did you hear all of this and see it all you saw all of these bombers and is that when when those bombers went over I I counted I think was five of our bombers got hit and and I saw the American Airmen jumping out of them you know I don't know if they all get out or not but I can see them jump out barely see them you know tiny as they were and then the the parachutes open uh then after the first after about five planes I um uh I saw very little German flag and after a while there was no German flag at all seem as all the planes just kept coming going going going bombing yeah was during that bombing by the way one of our general General mcir he was a personal friend of General Eisenhower and he was supposed to be just observing uh this bombing and he was with our with our regiment behind the lines and things could follow up and some of our bombs fell behind the lines and general MC got killed so that would be friendly fire yes he got killed by Friendly Fire yes that happened occasionally yeah um well CU you asked what happened after after Normandy cuz we broke out of Normandy and I had some pretty bad times there which I in my little story there tell us a few uh well you know mainly it's just getting bombed and and moded I'd like to tell you this uh occasion where a friend of mine his name is Jim Jim POA and I um went to the first St station and uh and then and we were told to uh to go uh to wait um tread fox holes over there but anyway uh I think we're with inside of where the Germans could see us because they just poured artillery and Mar shell on us on and there were just gerini and these two foxholes so they must have thought there was a whole company there because they just kept pound the uh the fox holes they uh they were so narrow that they we were they were individual foxes so I was in one and Jim was in the other and uh and the fox would just shake you know it uh it just they was so Furious to you our children were so Furious so if you were standing in a foxhole how how were you below the ground level we'd never stand in a foxhole you would Crouch yeah the deepest Foxhole I ever had was a 4T deep and that was a the deepest I ever dug one that was in in Paris and I never got to sleep in it anyway uh but no uh sometimes they were just five or six inches deep you could because it would run into stone bones and Brocks and uh but hopefully if we could get them 2 or 3 ft deep 2T deep so you and your friend were stuck in these two fox holes getting shelled mhm what was going through your mind at that point in time I'm not religious but I was praying to stay alive uh that's all I can remember uh did you even bother to try to fire back or was it useless to do that you couldn't see anything you couldn't see the enemy at all the F went after uh maybe an hour of that bombardment they kind of quieted down they must have thought they'd killed us and uh Jim stuck up his head stuck his head up and I stuck mine up and we looked at each other and know he looked like like a dead man pale and what are we going to do we just didn't know what to do so after I said we got to get out of here and we took off and began running and uh the they they must have watched us and they began sending in mods after us again uh so to final we came to a um anti-tank American anti-tank gun and we stayed with him for a while cuz that was behind one Hill they couldn't uh couldn't reach us there uh okay um but okay anyway there were quite a few cases like that but let me just uh quickly tell about this also because this this was the one good part of it and that was a liberation of Harris uh because I think it was a few weeks after that uh our 12th regiment which which we were a part of were the first American troops in Paris and uh there was an a French unit to win in also but um and um the the uh French people oh this sort of an a questions you asked before about the people in Normandy when we did see people in Normandy which was a little not the first day or two but after that they were very cold toward us because they had suffered damage their houses their fields their their animals we saw a lot of dead cows and horses uh so they were kind of coold to us and also from what I've read later I think the Germans in Normandy uh acted correctly you know they treated the French people all right but as we got to Paris we began marching toward Paris the people get just more and more enthusiastic about us toward us and uh and then as we kept walking they would line up along the streets we were in the suburbs of Paris and uh it reminded me of the the marathon when through Framingham and na the people would have their hands out and you would touch their hands as they went would buy and then they brought flowers they brought food they brought uh wine also then after a while I guess we we weren't going fast enough so the trucks came and there wasn't any enemy I told you we get on the trucks and then and that's when we actually were in Paris and the the pans were just went wild they were yelling screaming and uh and we were on a truck that time and the the girls were on the trucks and they would bring uh wine whiskey and and we' there's the girls come in kiss them and pass him on to the next guy kiss pass on and the same with the liquor and wine would take a swig and pass it on so they it was a it was a happy moment in a very difficult time so you were part of that Liberation yes yeah yeah I saw that yeah during that period of time did you get any time off at all no we didn't uh the 28th Division I marched through Paris they they actually marched through and you know uh but we went through Paris and that's kind of a long story but I won't go into that but we wound up on the outskirts of Paris in a um a park I know the name of it but doesn't come to me right now boy Deens and uh and we were there and we were bomn by that night by uh German aircraft not that's the first time I was you know we were borned by americ aircraft occasionally but uh the German um Air Force pretty much defunct when we were there but that night we were born by some German aircraft and it was pretty scary and and that's where uh I mentioned digging a 4-ot hole well uh when they would bomb we didn't have time to dig but there was a crater there so I and several other people jumped into the crater and the plane dropped some flares which made it seem like daylight out you know it was it was pretty scary you know it was so bright out uh and they did draw bombs but not right near us so none of us our group was killed but the next morning we got an order that everyone was to dig foxholes uh because uh not because of fear of the germs but we're going to bring in anti-aircraft and so the anti-aircraft might fall on us with dig Fox Souls so another buddy I had which was a real good friend Leo one year uh he was a um an Irish Indian from dubuk ia uh turned out to be my best friends uh and he and I dug Fox hoer we borrowed a a long shovel from our kitchen and we dug Fox Hole about 4T deep we fill it with uh leaves made it nice and comfortable we put branches over it and then those Jerry cans you know on top of that and dirt then we never used it because the next morning we we Mar out again yeah now you did you get the sense that this was the beginning of the end for for the war or not we thought it was at that time because um uh well we at that time I think we all thought that the wall would be ending maybe a couple weeks certainly not through Christmas and I remember one time after this told him but as we were walking and again through small village and the people were glad to see us and I remember some of the old people saying they thought the wall was over already and at at that time it might have seemed like it because there was no ger the Germans had taken off running back to ger the Sig free lion or the West Wall so yeah we did think it hoping praying that was almost over but it wasn't for you but it wasn't no tell us more well uh after Paris we kept on marching and we had I guess they call it a force March because we would we couldn't keep up with the Germans because they they would just well I'm skipping one little part but I can't tell you the whole story you know uh but anyway eventually we would uh uh chasing the CHS back to their their their border I forget what I was going to say um sorry so were you going through Belgium at this point in time yes uhhuh yeah and we still uh didn't meet any enemy activity at that time oh but we moving so fast that we could on trucks and we would ride the trucks for a while and and hike for a while so between hiking and riding we covered up many miles we until we got to the ger the border and then and then we came to an an abrupt stop on the border huh yeah in in the SE freed line actually and tell tell us someone else that was interviewed recently mentioned the S freed line could you explain that for those who might be watching this tape yeah it's sometimes called the West wall but it's uh some fortifications that Hitler had made uh and they were extremely um well fortified with big pill boxes so that even big guns hitting them would just bounce off them or just do minimal damage so were they cement yes uhhuh yeah cement and then on top of the cement there was dirt also and and then there were there were pled so that the machine guns would have Crossfire and cover them also uh so it was very difficult to get through now uh when we got to the S free line the first couple of pill boxes weren't occupied uh but after that they were and with the machine LS and all that and um frankly uh we Advanced very little the next uh 3 months I guess we we got the SEC line in September the early part of September and we were there October and November November we were in the hurrian forest but that's still part of the SEC free line and then it wasn't really until uh in December when the um the Battle of the Bulge were you involved in the Battle of the Bulge tell us about that okay um so would that have been what month was that that wasn't December December 16 16th yeah 19 44 44 well I I might just back up just a little bit Cu uh we were in the heren forest had just before that in the um which is in the Sig free line and uh did you have major battle in the forest yeah well there was a um um a saw Sor we call it the soill and it was almost leveled you know from artillery both German and ours and the the 28th division had been there before before we there was another division there also uh I can't remember the number they just got mutilated and then I think it was the 30th then the 28th took her over from them and they got mutilated and then we uh were sent in first it was just a 12th regiment was sent in now when you were sent in did you know what had occurred prior to your going in no not until after after yeah but when we were going there and again it was pretty dark that's the story in itself you know marching in mud and I remember U we we met somebody from the 28th division who was going to lead us to where we would be and I remember asking I asked him I said well how always hoping for the best you know said how is it up there you know and he says they thrown everything at us but the kitchen sink it's an old saying that I remember him saying that it was true and you mentioned the mud that's something that we've heard repeatedly also was it cold rainy spring uh it it it was cold and rainy uh when we got to the secret free line and this Forest also it was muddy and cold mud and this was in the winter actually the beginning of the winter yeah well actually November I think November 7th MH your anniversary today M no this is December I'm sorry uh that we it was November November 7th we uh when we got into the Sig line and it just started getting cold and real cold and after about the first week U at the herken forest is what I meant to say we're going to erican Forest um is it actually started to snow and um uh and it is uh since I was with the 60mm models and the Machine at that time we stayed at the so-called Sawmill but there was practically nothing there there was just it was all leveled but nevertheless there was a little we call it a cell hole but actually was a little uh hole um underground uh which service in the old days they service the sauce whatnot for The Sawmill and we're getting there and and uh we could we couldn't stand uh but we could just about Crouch and sitting sit side by side there and uh so we were a little protected from the German guns because we were half under sort of underground but on the other hand they knew we were there they had it well zeroed in and they just bombed us constantly you know artillery and uh and mortars so how long were you in the forest from the 7th until the end of the month all of virtually all of November and there were quite a few casualties and uh and there were quite a few um battle fatigue cases also there's some at least one that I I think was a self-inflicted one I'm sure there was more than that but not fatal but just enough to get them out right uhhuh yeah so you were there for about a month uhhuh yeah did you feel that it can't get any worse I mean well you were you were a young man in a foreign country fighting for your life yeah well you know the feel there I think with all of us was that there's no way we could get out of that and not get either hurt or or or killed Because by the law of average now we us to say this and we repeat these old things uh but um uh because you you'd go up there at the front line and you get killed or you get wounded and and removed and then you get Replacements and you continue on and then there' be more killed more wounded and more repl Replacements and they just being we us to hate to see Replacements come in we'd love to be replaced which were a couple of times then we' go back and regimental Reserve or or but uh we were always in the front lines were you wounded during this period yeah well I went by that that was uh uh that was in in in the secet free line before the uh Hurrican Forest uh and that's where it's kind of hard there's not too much to say because we're just constantly um well being fired on or artillery coming in most of the time you couldn't see in fact throughout the war most of the time you couldn't see the enemy uh I I I just remember I think uh right now all I can remember is once when I actually aimed at a a German and fired my rifle now the uh uh I'm sorry I'm hopping all over the place but it's the only way I can tell that's fine but so that was the only time you really close enough as far as seeing one that wasn't very close either but I could see them you you know and I could fire him I don't know if I hit him or not uh and the um uh the 60 M mm moders we were we would fire we didn't fight him very often we fight him in Normandy a couple of times uh and now we her and frost we fired them a lot that that's the only time we fired them a lot but we couldn't see where we were firing you know we just had them set up and uh and then when the uh stuff wasn't coming in the artillery so we' run out there and fire go in the other way but I have no idea if they were effective or not you sort of brushed over your your injury but yeah was it severe no no was a minor minor wound yeah and what would happen you're in the middle of this war and you're injured yeah and it was nighttime also and like I say it was a minor injury a broken bone but uh uh and U they took me back to the aid station which uhu wasn't very far Battalion Air Station uh aid station station and um and they uh looked at it and they um B bound it up x-rayed it bound it up they had some equipment there you know for X-rays and then they sent me back to um I think was a regimental field what they call the field where they took some more X-rays and they they finally I wed up with a um a uh was it a hospital or I know the names of these things but I don't recall them um and so I was there for two weeks I was out of action for two weeks and it was very nice there when you're out of action for two weeks were you were able to write home a little more often uh I don't know if more I did write home you your family must have heard that you had been injured yeah but my mother said she didn't hear uh that I was injured from the water department uh until after I was already back in action and and sent her a message say saying everything was fine this the way I my life everything's fine just feel great no no problem and in the meantime and she's got a letter there saying that I was wounded so once you got back into action were you able to get back with the original group that you were with yes uhhuh yeah yeah they sent me right back and they hadn't moved at all from where I was when I uh when I got here they were still there the same Fells were glad to see me and when I was glad to I was glad to see them but I hated to be back sure you know um okay uh so you went through the forest you're in the Sig freed line you're sort of at a standstill uh-huh yeah okay so it was like the end of November and we were pulled back from the U herkin Forest now I think at that time we were almost through the the forest the forest wasn't that big uh since then I've looked up the dimensions and I think was like 10 miles by I don't maybe five miles and the stories I understand it was there's no there was no need for us to go through that that was really hell it was a Terri terrible battle um uh because they could have just gone around it with tanks and went up they couldn't they couldn't get tanks through the hook and far it mud trees uh there us to be a lot of tree bursts you know which you didn't stand a chance against now what would this tree burst be well with all the uh trees that were there uh and there they would um especially the MERS I guess as soon as they hit the branches they would explode and they would go downwards so you couldn't if you hit the live flat wouldn't do any good in fact you'd be exposing yourself more so since I've read the thing to do is to get up against a tree hug a tree they had less chance of getting hit I didn't know that I didn't hear that at that time besides I wouldn't feel like hugging a tree so uh uh but that yeah so there a lot of tree burst and the forest itself it uh it you know the the forest looked horrible you know the trees were like uh I guess it's like toothpicks you know they were all splinted and uh uh but anyway uh so toward the end of the month uh we were almost through and we we were pulled back and another division came in I don't remember the name of it uh but I I've got tell you this story and I hope you can cut it out if over running um we had one you know we we did have captains and and U Lieutenant who were killed and come and gone uh we had one who I thought a lot of his name was round round tree Bob Brown tree and and um uh he U he was our acting company Commander at that time although he was only lieutenant and uh let me see now okay we' been pulled back a little bit another division gone in there and and then uh bir came around and said that uh uh we were to go and um hold a u a road I think they call it a road block and so they wanted some quote volunteers which are the never volunteers uh to go up and hold them but there was somebody already I think they call it a a Cavalry unit already holding it and uh and anyway I was one of the volunteers I really I was picked but uh but they uh said I was a volunteer and uh but uh my sergeant told me don't worry there's nothing there they're already someone's holding the Cavalry unit and all you guys just have to go there go there replace them and then you'll be back by I remember you said you'll be back by 10 o00 for lunch uh and uh course they were still in fox h holds you know we're back behind the lines a little bit and uh so we went and our group from the uh our company and then there was another group from you know I company and the other three companies and we walked single file along a muddy Road and then we got to a point in the aut came back to stop and face left up the hill and uh and then we started going up the hill and you know began shooting at us you know um and uh anyway quite a few guys got killed uh and we got to the uh where the Cavalry unit was uh and we did we took over from them then after a while uh someone else came and replaced us and we did get back to our unit but it was it was dark it was a uh like 6:00 at night and since that was uh the end of November it was pretty dark by then and uh two guys that I you know I keep changing the name these people but it's because we did change you know I'd have a fox Soul buddy one week uh one day next day i' have someone else so this day when I get back the two Foxhole guys I had were Sergeant o Connell and Sergeant cow uh private Crow and they were so glad to see me you know they had a three-man foxhole and uh so they let me sleep in the middle and that was a real honor because if you slip on the edge if you just moved at all you get dirt down the back of your neck and you didn't have any room to move in the middle you had you know you so they gave you that privilege because of what you had just been through yeahhuh yeah yeah so we were in the Foxhole maybe a half hour pitch stle by that time and uh then the word came down we're moving out again you know oh it can't be we just got back you know going out again and then we heard uh that Lieutenant rry who I thought so much of I heard his voice you know and he was a real um what's the word um go get her s of you know but nothing the kind that you disliked you he uh and I heard him say you know words to the effect that uh this is ridiculous we get arst to go we don't know where we're going we don't know why we're going and it's dark and we're going uh and uh and you know and we're in the foxo and we hear some of people say you know we're not going to go this is ridiculous you know and I remember one guy a southern guy saying uh I can't go uh I can't find my shovel and you know he was serious but uh but uh it's true the shovel was the most important thing you know um but anyway he went we we all went and we and again Petty dark with following the guy in front of them you know you couldn't couldn't see anything you try to hold maybe touch the guy once in a while to see who's who's there uh and then pretty soon we heard a a loud explosion and then another loud explosion uh and then no one knows what's going on what's Happening there's no other artillery coming in just two loud explosions then pretty soon the line starts moving this is the way it is in the inventry you know line starts moving you start following the guy in front of you you don't know where where they're going or he doesn't know where he's going uh and you know uh we went you know almost all night I guess or L until maybe the middle of the night I know at one time uh we stalking the guy I thought I was falling I wasn't falling was someone else uh and uh then the next and then then at one point we stopped and my buddy one you was there and he said well the hell with this we'll just stop and we just stopped there was no AR coming in anyway dropped our equipment and just went to sleep there and uh the next morning got light out still no watch children coming in and then we saw them carry out two bodies you know one was thaten Round Tree he had died yeah what happened with him um there were mines we we walked into a mine field and he got his legs blown off and uh what I was told was that he was begging uh for uh someone to shoot him you know uh and uh and they said there were two explosions the other guy was some of those Lieutenant was attached to our unit I don't know who he was what not they both got killed anyway uh I met dad this after the war the first year after the war I got a letter from uh Mr Lieutenant rri's parents do you still have that letter no I wish I had remember what it said yes uhhuh uh it just it just want they were writing to to I guess virtually anyone they knew from K company who might have known his son and what happened to him did you ever write back to them yes I did it had to be very difficult for them to also write in for that matter for you to write back to them too yeah yeah but actually you know I told them I told him what had happened as far as uh uh I would walk to Minefield but I told him that Bob was killed immediately you know didn't suffer it all you know uh so and then oh I don't know maybe a year or two years after that I got another another letter from them from Lieutenant rri's father saying that they brought his body back that I I think they had him buried there in France they brought him back to uh see I don't remember what St he was from now but uh I think it was in the midwest someplace how old a man was he I would guess around 26 this had to be such a nightmare yeah yeah yeah so I I could sidetracked there I don't know how I get off on that but anyway okay because you're talking about U the U Battle of the belge uh because that was the end of November and um and well the rum at that time was we've been through so much and we've been getting this rumor all since I landed on dday that uh you know the the fourth division especially the 12th regimen have been through so much we're going to go to a real get a real rest maybe even back to England and maybe even back the States you know the story we got and I I to this day I don't know if it's true or not but uh when I first got there I was told that the 12 division used to be uh uh uh the president's Honor Guard I don't even know what that means you know but therefore we would get special treatment and we we were going back so at that time in November they said we were going to get a good rest this time a couple times uh in in Normandy they said we were going to get arrested and then it it turned out that it wasn't that it just didn't work out that way well this time they did have a rest plan for us uh they were sending us to U would have been a quiet front in L opposite Luxembourg where uh uh there was a river I don't remember the name of it and across the river you could see German bunkers and you could you could actually see the German some German soldiers occasionally walking around out there and it was almost as though uh there was an understanding they wouldn't shoot on us and we wouldn't shoot on them but I'm getting ahead of it the story uh so they uh they they pulled us out of the perin forest and they put us on a train these 4 and8 they sent us uh through Bel uh from Lux anyway into Luxembourg and we went to a little town I think was called heon uh and U and we replaced another division that was there who had been resting there had been taken easy for a couple of months so the first two three four days I don't remember now that we were there on the on that line in Luxembourg it was quiet we were a little village there the gmers would sent over an occasional shell which didn't bother us cuz you know we were living in a house you know there were houses there no civilians uh the rooms had a single light bulb which is great you know no heat but but a single light bulb uh and and then and uh our people are to guess would send over occasional shell over to the German side but as far as We Know this is a quiet front this is terrific you know and uh we we found some potatoes we made french fries they were great and then excuse me uh then on December 16th uh yeah the night of the 15th and the the morning the 16th that was the day the u b the B started and uh we were asleep you know and we were up in in our beds in the second floor I remember you know both three of us in the bed of course we had all our clothes on I don't think we had our boots on because we take our boots off and all of a sudden you know there's a lot of artillery coming in instead of just the one occasional one and one of them hit the house that we were in well we scrambled you know and ran down s and then we could see that there was just constant born badman coming in you know uh we still didn't know what was going on I don't think anyone knew you know I don't think General Eisenhower knew uh and then the next morning I'll make this as fast as I can and uh it was still you know Crouch there in the cell all that were coming in and we were told to get our stuff on we were marching out so we got out out of the the seller that was there and lined up on the street you know still sort of Crouch down wherever we could get any um cover and another there was a guy there I'd never seen before here was a carpal his name was Raa I think it's r a e d e r and he had a big uh radio strap his back back never seen anything like that before you know uh I and I think now afterwards I think he was maintaining Communications between U Battalion and and the company I don't know but I know he was right there where we were I know he said oh you know there nothing to worry about he said excuse me he say somebody from ey company one of the outposts saw uh called Battalion instead of that uh they saw several hundred German soldiers coming out of you know advancing and a corpal Raider said um the U Battalion Commander Luckett I think his name was uh had gone to to England for a wrestling recuperation or something and major rice uh had taken over and he said major rice was new he didn't know what was going on and he panicked he said if the colonel was there would still be uh Lieutenant Colonel I think it was would still be you know taken you know back in the houses well anyway we did move out and I think we we moved out I don't know if was five five or 10 miles probably 5 miles and we went up into a a want to say a hill except it's sort of flat Plateau Hill plateau and then from there we looked out and uh and we we see the Germans coming out of the woods you know now I don't know how many several hundred they were advancing toward a small village which I think is where our eye company was that we were supposed to go help uh and then minute um let me see that yeah I guess right about that time you know where we hadn't been fight on until then then all of a sudden all kinds of artillery began coming someone them just spotted us and uh and by the way that uh radar was killed uh this was the radio man the radio man yeah and also I can't remember who uh who our company Commander was at that time right now but he was killed also and there was a lot of confusion and then when it was all over there was nobody left except a sergeant and I know his name but I can't think of it now uh and you know no one knew what we were doing where we were going what to do and we went back right back the five miles or so the door would come from to the small town to the small town yeah initially uhhuh yeah yeah and then um let me just uh sum it up this so for the rest of the um u b of the belge we were more or less in holding positions because uh what happened is we were in the very southern end of the buge in Luxenberg the very southern end and and the biggest push was further north and so as long as we held I thought I guess we must have been doing a good job of hold of them but actually I think that it was just that uh there all the ref was up further north also we were told that the soldiers that we were facing were not the fanatical Nazis uh Storm Troopers they were the uh I think they call them V Troopers older uh troops uh so and then that went on through into January so that was almost another month of more or less really just holding but when you say hold it meant basically holding your position yeah but fighting to hold it yeah yeah fighting fighting out guns when you know whenever we had to then occasionally would get a a bit of a rest be able to go some place or other you know and uh see that's all I can tell you about when did you get shipped home uh that was in um uh July of 45 yeah in the meantime just to cover that the rest of that very quickly uh see January February uh we didn't move much you know then March uh by March I think we had so so much equipment come over so much uh you know so many tanks and and we had uh better better equipment I think than we than we used to have uh Mar things started opening up and then in April I think Germany started falling apart um did you kind of get the sense at that point in time that you were winning yes I think all along I felt we were winning for one thing there wasn't any um any uh the lot wafer the German aircraft where it was always ourcraft and as as badly as I thought we were getting it without um moders and artilleries I always felt that the Germans were getting twice as much at least as we were mhm did you ever get a sense throughout all of the turmoil that you were in and you were in it almost daily that you were going to lose it the war lose the war no you're just yourself no I you know and that's not bragging uh at all because I was tell you I was scared uh most of the time I was there but uh if Dy sunas that broke I guess you call it you that uh at the beginning you never thought they would and they did they um had batt fatigue you know and broke and knowing that you had mentioned earlier that you got this Dear John Letter was this in the midst of all of this turmoil that you got this no that was in April okay when the German started to fall apart and we were in regimental Reserve at the time so we were in pup tense so after going through hell you get a letter there just a way felt mhm yeah so at that point was it almost anticlimactic to you yes that that she was breaking off your relationship yeah I wasn't uh hurt by it at all at that time I just wanted to stay alive and then did you have to serve out some period of time after all of that that you had been through uh know can I tell you one more episode the very last day we saw combat and that was May 4th the war ended officially May 8th but May 4th was the very last day and I thought it was kind of interesting because at that time for a week or two before that we' been moving pretty fast and and uh we' ride on half on um tanks or half tracks hang on to the sides uh so on this May 4th uh and again you know before that the Germans were falling apart um germ or seren would come by and they come by uh so often we just W from back sometimes we wouldn't even bother you know trying to lead them back or anything just go back go back um so on May 4th we get on the uh this column of I think three tanks and three tanks and a half two half trucks maybe with four tanks two half trucks then there was miscellaneous d uh German cars that the soldiers had picked up and uh we were in the half tracks the our section and uh so we were going moving along in the trucks and it was it was quiet there was no one shooting but the the guys that had some them had a little bit of drink you know this happens uh and as we went along um they began shooting nothing just having fun and then all sudden the the the column stopped I didn't know have no idea why it stopped but it stopped I didn't like that I want to we were out in the open there were a couple of houses it was out in the open and then on our left there was a little bit of a hill with with uh some Woods in it and still nothing happened still no one was shooting at us but and so we got out of our off off the tank tanks are off the high trucks and S of M around and um uh I remember one year came over and said you I'll make a cup of coffee so he did with a his canteen cup he heated up a cup of coffee we had a cup and they came back later and he said uh there's a house over there let's go down and loot the house cuz nothing was happening we were just Milling around which is ridiculous to be out in the open Milling around and I I wasn't in the mood to uh uh do any uh any looting um which I never had loting success uh so um again we hung around and then um my U oh section leader the sergeant came over to me said there's another house further off to the right let's go see what's in that house now uh this wasn't just I don't know why but anyway we we both went and uh as we were going over a bullet went over our head which we thought was a Germans but it might have been one of our people shooting but I I have to tell you this though when we got there uh into the little house nothing there were just uh in one room there were there was a bed and there were two dead soldiers um they didn't have any the German uniform that I'm familiar with but they they were both dead one of them didn't have his shoes and I could see part of his foot was shot off the other one um I I thought had been slip from ear to ear you know and I've always thought that there was slip from ear to ear you know uh but but later you know reading up on things I I was just wondering if uh he might have been you know you know they use piano y to string people up so because I don't know if you they were Germans or some other uh but I I never I still don't know what they were killed but that's not the story I want to get to the P I want to get to so Grimes and I my section leader went back to our column and then one year came over again and he said let's go over to that house way up front uh maybe we can find something to eat there you know so we went up there and yeah we we found some uh preserves which we opened up and eating and then pretty soon we noticed it was the DS began firing on the column you know the Germans have been there all the time I guess there was some sort of U negotiations going on but it didn't work out for some years or they began firing on the column and they would um they would fire at the uh tanks and keep them buttoned up and they would fire at the half tracks where my Tom was and one year and I were just watching it and and we we had some binoculars we at the window because they weren't shooting at us so it was like a movie just watching watching guys getting killed and you know the stuff coming in and then after a while uh one of our tanks did open up they uh and and they fired up in the hill and they they stopped I don't know what happened but the firing stopped and we went out and again this is the last day we saw action and there quite a few people in in our our platoon that were killed that's the last prodaction I saw yeah and that was May 4th and officially the the war ended May 8th and that was a little town up in the uh I think they call the the German Alps town called bad tols T well Z and by that time because as high as we were and it was beautiful you know the the Alps right there all but there was snow on the ground uh and uh yeah so we were uh I think it was on the 5th we started uh to walk out thinking it was is going back into fighting again then we stopped by this building in bad TOS turn and uh turned out to be the hospital and we told to go in the building uh I think it was a hospital and rest area for for um the German Elite and we went there they had a beautiful big Olympic Sisson pool which we used and we were there I think a week or so and then we went to a small village called kbur in Germany a beautiful little village now now that was in May you know the middle latter half of May to June uh you know flowers were out blossoming it was just lovely so in spite of what you'd been through you were able to see some Beauty at the end yes absolutely yeah yeah yeah yeah and then I I have to think you you had to get back where did you depart from after all of that okay after that we went to one another little town that we um I I thought it was occupation troops but I think occupation troops has a formal meaning we were just there and then we went to a see a June must have been in July early July latter part of June we went to a um a a camp PR preparing to a to go to an embarcation Point might have been called old gold Camp anyway we wound up a leaving from lahav and U we left laav on a small ship much smaller than the US than the SS um America I think it was just our regiment you know wasn't many people and how long were you at sea at that point that that took two weeks two weeks to get home yeah yeah one week five days in fact to get there and two weeks to get back did you come in through New York yes we did uhhuh what was it like coming into the harbor that was that was a little bit exciting was it emotional for you not but not terribly but but it should have been yeah it should have been because we passed by the um uh Statue of Liberty which should have been exciting but it was so far off you know it didn't didn't particularly excite me uh but um as our ship uh went through the harbor uh you know U there were ships that had welcome welcome fourth division all over it and our own ship had the I had our own division had two inide one was a 12 regiment uh but anyway there were number of signs saying welcome fourth Division and there were ships that were firing the uh fire hole streamers up yeah and there were people uh cheering and then when we get off there was a band playing there when we loaded in Boston there was a band playing also but I hardly noticed it I just mared in but there was a band playing uh we took us to a I think it was New Jersey the camp in New Jersey and we had I know we had a steak dinner and ice cream first time you know time that was very nice and did you have time left after that or were you discharg no uh I had a little time left well see at that time I didn't realize I thought we were home and that was it but they had us flagged to go to Japan uh uh um so we we got a 30-day fer so that took us into August probably theid middle of August but but it was before the uh Adam Bonds were dropped before the peaceful Japan and uh so I did go back I made sepal trips back and forth from North from North Carolina back home that's why at least some of those trips I thumbed you know M um so after what you'd been through you still were going to have to fight additionally in Japan yeah I don't know if I could have done it I know I I Rec just jokingly said if we had to fight Japan I'd jump off the boat but I don't think I it would have been the same thing I would have wound up you know reluctantly going and then uh you know uh but uh but yeah while I was home on my second Fair LW uh Atomic boms were dropped and I remember I was walking downtown and um downtown framing framing I met an old friend uh who said uh the Russians had joined the war and said the war won't last long now and I kind of agreed with him of course I didn't know what the atomic bomb was you know I thought it it's a big bomb you know um and sure enough the war was over very shot after that uh so therefore so at that time um I think our um the 12th regiment or the fourth division almost disintegrated because I I got a at that point I got a letter from the 12 regiment I believe or all the division they' found out that I graduated from mentley and they asked me to to come back so I could work in the finance office or something that would have been worth a million dollars you know back in combat but at that time I didn't want to go back you know I did go back I just went back to our our company they old friends and so once you reached Stateside and you had a little bit of Furlow where were you stationed after that or were you discharged after discharged camp at in North Carolina yeah and then we were shipped to Fort devans uh just as when we came in I went to Fort devans what was it like for your family having you home well they were ecstatic they very very very pleased could did they have any idea what you had been through I think so I I I think so did you talk much about it at all no very little mhm how did you pick up your life after that having been through such an experience well you know the first months um say I got discharged in U August September October November I was pretty depressed I was very depressed you know you think that it'd be elated being home but I think one I missed even though I hated the War I missed my friends you know and all of a sudden I was alone you know uh whereas uh in the war I was never alone I always had someone uh but then in January uh I um enrolled at Boston University and then that's said I forgot about the war and did you graduate from beu yes and what was your major accounting you had told us prior to going on tape about a story regarding one of your good friends and he and his son having gone to see a movie tell us about that okay that's Pat ners yeah he was uh he joined us just before um Paris we were still in in Normandy but just before Paris a good friend also Pat Uh Marcel n us but been called him Pat how do you spell his last name n i l g s he was young now I thought he was 18 but I found since found that he was I guess he was 20 when he joined us but nevertheless he was young guy and uh I didn't correspond with with him but uh in 1951 and I I was in business uh you know uh my work I was I was u i passing through St Louis and I I looked his name up in the phone book and called and uh he and his son came out to see me uh and I was very glad to see him but I didn't have much time to spend with him then I was back my plane back home I that was I think that was 1951 um and then month and a half ago or something um my son got an email from a nailist I saying he was Pat Nel's son and he was wondering if we related if we were related my son called me and asked me if this was a fraud or a scam or what was it I saids no it's not scam it's Patel Just so I wrote back to Paton emailed him back and so we vote uh I got a picture of P his wife died about a year ago uh and he's he's did well what prompted him to write uh he and his son had been to uh see uh Saving Private Ryan and on the way in the car coming back he told his son that if there's there's just one guy he'd like to get in contact it was me uh so his son did so after 40 something years you're reinitiating a friendship for many years ago yeah I uh he wrote then I wrote but I told him I was writing my Memoirs which and not send him a copy when I haven't done I haven't sent him yet and in fact we will say on tape that we do have a record of some very very well-written Memoirs that you have given us so they will be a part of this how important do you feel serving in the military was for you well in retrospect uh since I survived it I I think it was was very important uh if if I knew I was going to survive it I would have enjoyed but but really while it was going on I just wanted to stay alive how do you think it affected the rest of your life although there I'm sure there were it affected me quite quite strongly I don't know just how were you a mature 20year old or did you gain a maturity quickly having been through the experience that you were in my wife says I'm still not mature how one of the questions that we've asked a number of the veterans that we've interviewed that I'd like to ask you now too is how you feel about the difference of public opinion regarding the veterans of your generation in World War II versus those in the Korean conflict and those in the Vietnam War well I I think there definitely was a difference but I can understand it because in World War II everyone virtually everyone was in the war the the whole country was pretty much United behind it the Vietnam uh there were always doubts and uh it's a shame but uh because the that boy suffered so much which I I know they did um but it was just a different situation so right or wrong it was different yeahuh yeah of course I got to say this during the War I didn't know that um the Jewish people were you know um being killed with with the you know what I mean with the concentration camps and Annihilation and uh yeah we saw we liberated some concentration camps but uh they had their striped uniforms but I thought they were just mostly polish We call we call them DPS displace persons and I I really had no idea what they were but but never saw any these emaciated people uh prisoners that we've seen since so I I didn't know uh extermination is the word I was thinking of I didn't know the about extermination case I might have felt differently you know uh more gung-ho if I'd known about thoughts although I still think when it comes to artillery and people want to live you want to live your own life you know is there one thought or one comment that you would leave us with this afternoon it can not only be for your family but also for others who might share in viewing this tape in the future no honestly I I I don't have anything I don't have any thoughts you've had a remarkable story to tell us today I'd like to thank you so much for coming thank you very much

Fortnite Frenzy: Epic Battles and Victory Royales Galore!
we're back again oh what's that thing Jesus I'm trying to look for the stupid reboot rally thing there's no such [ __ ] thing in here by the looks of it is it maybe it's in rank did you Google it no I'm just trying to look for it in the list of games and there's [ __ ] a million games but ranked what's rank though is rank based upon like level 50 OD you are no like what level you are technically so you should be put into a rank level as you get better and better like you like you know level up and get better you get put you should be put into ranks that's how ranked Works in Apex so you start out as like a bronze badge and you only play against bronze people and then you has correctly joined the channel you go but if you keep getting killed early and you die you lose points so you get you drop down ranks oh okay it's no good so it's a waste of D playing it though or do we have less NS yeah you have less neres you know like as in because you're just playing against people that are probably a bit same as you not just yes it doesn't always work because people make new accounts just so they can you know demolish people yeah okay I don't know where it is either bro I've had a look we probably have to Google that one I thought that would be an easy one just like reboot your mate yeah Wicked that's easy yeah well that's how we do that probably every third game let's not lie what was wrong with the stew mate what was you didn't have not enough red wine not enough like beef I red wine to I never do had red wine but not enough St it just tastes it tastes more like just beef stock doesn't have all that you know that nice flavor to it yourself again no I'm playing against people from all over the world this one's a good serving bro yeah Jesus mate that last me like a [ __ ] week tomorrow you will this one in case if you cannot see it just restart your game and you will be able to see it okay once you click on that you will ask you to uh actually show all the the play that you can rally them back as you can see on it and all that 522 player left the game so all I have to do now is just clicking on any of these players just choose one course for yourself you might this no one YouTu anyway once you click on any of these players just click rally them back that's it literally that's it you will see this iPhone you will press post and that's it okay I think

there's his teammate where over here I can't see him bro 62 oh my God just hit game got him all right there's shooting over here here there's someone up up there I can't get up that hill from this

get up there to go what there get on the roof oh what is this no that was that's what I said we what kind of circle is this oh he's knocked yeah he's got sniper down there on the beach be that that's the one that killed you yep but I don't know where this teammate is I have to help him it's 2 one I just kill him I look where the circle going are you kidding me game shooting like why why is this game like this oh good H one to the right trying to get stuff oh my God no [Applause] lock wow okay 14 kills bro dude that killed me wow is that the one that killed you he had nine Health left that one 14 kills I didn't have a sniper I had a sniper at least I would had a chance to try and snipe one of them that's right and I didn't have any scope on my thingy so I couldn't [ __ ] aim better I'm just relying on [ __ ] whether the luck is going to give me hits oh what about old Ricardo he the guy was albor on his right was not he didn't need to be there he tried to overtake con of on the outside he had nowhere to go like he just nowhere to go bro he had one on the inside of him on the left and then albor decided to try and overtake on the right and then that was it [ __ ] clipped him gone oh bro did you see that Co backed 100 then they lost cuz Josh Butler got 100 no I just saw that I think it was at that one was it the one of the slowest hundred they said 68 balls or something is that correct I don't know it could have been but they said the slowest hundreds 68 balls that's uh pretty pretty 500 really right I'll take it in the we not going to lie oh did we get any reboot ones h no should have done some damage surely no it says zero a zero of 80,000 dumb right what was that 685,000 for the 2023 Hond Civic typ barand new one too 68,000 [ __ ] that bro I don't know what they are brand new but they were hard to buy as well yeah well I had to look on Mark on uh car sales before there's like 38 cor rollers bro yeah I've uh Sunshine Toyota where I got my Rally from yep they've got a g rally in there and a gr Corolla in there two white I think both white I think for sale right now so they must have had another order that um rocked up that was cancel or whatever yeah they can whatever as well well and you know the Corollas is so much newer and there's so many of them and they were all how much were they were they 70 70 71 yeah yeah 70,000 and then it was like 85 for the meritz yeah which there's probably only what one or two or three in Australia yeah there wasn't that many um I think there was 40 total in Australia was supposed to come y but you never know if 40 actually eventuated or not uh there's a person flying where's he going oh he's leing R literally landed in the middle of [ __ ] nowhere what the [ __ ] that's cuz there so many cars for sale at the moment the market is down people have no money everyone trying to sell their toys and some people trying to sell those toys for way more than what they [ __ ] should yeah like as in sorry mate money gone so I want to sell my toys wa the only reason I may have to sell my car is to pay for lawyer bills and pay for this [ __ ] house that's the only reason but even if I sold mine now anyway I wouldn't lose too much cash out of it as in for what I paid for it yeah like I didn't pay Co money for mine so I don't feel so bad if that makes sense mine's probably at least like I probably get it probably sell it at a dealer for 40 [ __ ] Grand know what I mean 40 something oh my god really I've got a get I've got the glitch no gold oh have you oh I feel good now cuz it's usually [ __ ] Willow that gets it it's literally the only first like time I've had it in what a week Rel least since of talking about it I still reckon it's Dodge anyway because like cuz I I don't reckon I every second game I know but I don't even reckon I have that much the amount of gold I had back either how does it even glitch like that that doesn't know like where does the glitch come from to give you no gold like I don't get it all right I better head towards some sort of circle I suppose I'm going to go up this way this time just to make the circle actually I could probably go that direction see if that I can hide that chick actually now that I say that well I can't hire no chick no you that's a change it's usually Willow that goes and I don't look until I land and then I go what the [ __ ] going on with this stupid game that's pretty well what's happened the last couple of times I'm like are you [ __ ] [Applause] serious all I can buy from this vending machine is [ __ ] gives you sniper bullets welcome to Willow World mate no no it's that's all I can buy from it like it literally only gives you the option to sniper bullets cuz you got no more coin bro you wait I've got you're like literally as broke as us in real life BR feels normal mate what's going on nothing's different e no this is our normal life yeah it's a little bit funny cuz they're like how poor are you yeah we're really [ __ ] poor should we be poor uh probably not not this poor that's probably a better answer isn't it what is this going to give you drum gun but I can't buy it don't look at it mate where is these Bots that land here oh I led here 300 for a good sniper I can't buy it sorry mate now you know what it feels like to be Willow like every few games cuz you usually just laugh at me and go really you got it again well that's the thing you you have it like so many times not gold here 160 you're [ __ ] dead thanks love gave me some bullets under reload two dead they're hiding in a bush bro come out of a bush again what's It Go with these people [ __ ] hiding in bushes you [ __ ] stupid wankers I hate them and they're both watching now they can have a watch what are they hiding in [ __ ] bushes for bro like early game too bro and look where I am like seriously like I'm not near anything and my thing keeps throwing like chug splashes and all sorts of stuff all right where are you how far away I'm coming to you cuz I'm get I'm getting doing this car thing anyway yo might as well take that the free that thing's going to open here um yeah 20000 M I'm going to run towards that 300 M away from me I'm coming to pick you up cuz I got to drive [Applause] anyway you going to hide this person you I've got this one already bro oh I'm going to jump out this thing just over the hill someone will be

Catherine de Bolle - Fighting Crime in the Digital Age
dear audience welcome to the last interview of room for discussion for this academic year today we'll be interviewing the first female executive director of the european law enforcement agency catherine de bola after finishing her master's of law working at the jeanne marie and interpol she has now been appointed her second term as executive director for europol today we'll be talking about how crime has changed in the almost 30 years of experience that mr buller has had in the field and how these changes have affected europol's responsibilities and how they reflect on the recent reforms that have been made to your false mandates so if you're interested in crime and digitalization please take a seat and give a warm welcome to ms devoe [Applause] thank you for joining us today thank you all right so um mr bullet first of all congratulations on your appointments to your second term um must be really exciting yes it is um we would like to start off with asking you what it is to be like a real life m from the james bond holidays what does your your average day look like first of all thank you for inviting me and for this opportunity you give me today to be the life m for law enforcement is great of course it was my dream from a child already to become a policewoman it's 30 years ago now that i i took my first steps i was a bit too small to become a police so i studied law and then afterwards i could join the general marine and for me the important thing was to do the right thing and to help people finding solutions for their problems and really to contribute in an operational way to society to make sure that what we have we will not lose it and to protect the first aim for me was to protect children and and it still is high on the agenda of the european union also today and i must say i'm very grateful to my country and to my colleagues and to my parents and my my family to give me the opportunity to do what i what i did until now because when you start with a job as a police woman you have to be available and and problems occur all the time so you you have to be there when that society needs you that was my biggest motivation in fact to become a policewoman and on that note you mentioned that being a woman it was different for you but you've had a very long and successful career in law enforcement did you find it difficult to sort of break the glass ceiling in a very male dominating area when i started in the police in belgium we were two women all the rest were men men but i must say i never felt discriminated i never felt mistreated i felt that the people respected me for whom i was and the what the only thing i needed to do to uh grow in the position is that you always need to be well prepared and i always needed to know a bit more than the others because i was the only woman around the table so if i made a mistake everybody would remember the mistakes and when you have 30 men and one woman nobody would remember the mistakes made by men but yes by a woman they did because i was the only one but that is the only thing i see i i was really supported by a few males who really believed in the added value of women in police forces and justice authorities globally and yes when something is not right or something does not go well you have to dare to say so and also i think you have to recognize and to be well aware of your limits your own limits and um you have to study your whole life you cannot stop and for me it's it's very important my my my main thing as i said is to serve society to do the right thing and if you stick to your uh perspective and to your initial goal then you can grow a lot and in our societies in the european union there are a lot of opportunities you just have to take them when they uh when they pass by but you don't have it for granted you have to work for it that is that is that is sure and have you seen any any changes in the makeup of law enforcement over there almost 30 years you've been in the field i have seen a lot of changes [Music] i see that there are a lot of women now working in police forces which is good all over europe in the beginning when i started 30 years ago it was a locally organized police work you looked at your region you looked national national uh focus was already important now you really have this global focus because of the digitalization and the crime uh is organizing crime organizations are organizing themselves globally so that that made a big change um in the past you had the paper world the physical world now you have all the data coming in you have the internet you have social media so the exposure is bigger and the globalization is bigger and that is the biggest issue and as a police force we also have to adapt our stealth and to change constantly and to adapt to uh to the new developments in the world the new opportunities for us it's very important when when we look for instance to technology to make the assessment what is in for us for the police force and what is in for criminals and how do we have to address this what solutions do we have to invent so creativity is very important in police that is also why in the past you had more and more people coming from military schools with a law degree now in police forces we hire all the degrees because diversity makes the organization stronger people with a history background for instance they know what happened in the past and it's very good to understand better and to reflect on the future so the combination of the diversity is extremely important in a police force and europol is apart from being a law enforcement agency it's also very focused on cooperation with local police forces but also other agencies but the agency doesn't have direct power to arrest suspects without cooperation with state police offices so would you say that uh that arresting criminals is not your main mandate yes it is europol was established 22 23 years ago and it was a clear need from police forces in the european union to work together and to share information already then without all these internet environment because to tackle crime you need to cooperate and you you need to exchange information so the most important uh reason to exist for europol is to be a platform of information exchange relevant for policing and uh police forces they wanted to to work together related to terrorism and to rate it related to serious and organized crime because these are the two areas which are important for international police cooperation and cross-border policing and we see that this is still in the essence of europa information exchange and cross-border crime and so that is uh that is the reason why we do not have executive powers because it's a matter of national sovereignty it's also foreseen in the lisbon treaty concretely that europol does not have uh national that does not have executive powers it remains in the hands of the national member states and i believe this is the good thing because working together you cannot oblige people to work together they have to want and they need to see the need to work together and our aim is to add value to what they do we process data we receive data we process the data we come to investigative leads leads these leads go back to member states and they use them in their cases to bring perpetrators before court that is essentially what we do we also coordinate a lot in between the different law enforcement agencies but it's also it's always the police force on national level who will decide what we can do we will not oblige them anything they choose to work with us more and more they share data with us we coordinate we collect the data we connect the data between the different countries we coordinate and we create new data in fact and the new data are the new investigative leads they need so so the europol's main office then looks a little bit more like a tech company than another police officer yes you can you can see it like that but now with the ukrainian crisis for instance we deploy also police officers from europa because the people working in europe or most of the time police officers we deploy police officers to the border countries to make when it's needed and asked for by the national authorities secondary security checks to have a good view of who is coming in into the european union and who poses a threat to the european union so do they do more data gathering at the borders or do they actually also actively pursue police work at the borders we support more and more the police forces on the ground yeah so they're not sent as missionaries but they're sort of there to support the local police forces as well yes it's the local police forces the national police forces they are responsible for the work they do and when they see uh through risk indicators a risk they come to us and they ask us to check the people that are crossing the border so um we signed up for the newsletter of europe and we see um a lot of what you publicly put out into the world are are these kind of smaller more niche busts that have to do with for example um to name an example confiscating counterfeit cigarettes why why do you decide to publicly kind of we want to be a transparent organization and we believe in forming the public is important because it's you need to know what is going on in the continent you live in and in the european union it's also creating awareness everybody is on the internet everybody is on social media you also have to understand the uh the challenges you you will have to deal with and the threats posing posed by this uh by this digital world in fact but these these um push messages that we were getting seemed quite small skill for for an organization that works so internationally within the eu are there these buzz that you might not publicize for certain reasons or uh yes we decide on what we publish and what we want because we also uh the confidence and the trust from law enforcement is very important and one of the big principles of europol is that the member state decides what we do with the data so they decide you can cross-check the data you can share the data you can't share the data and [Music] it's it's up to a member state what we can do with the data we are the data broker but we do not we are we do not own the data is it a difficult balance between being a transparent organization and do you have to keep in line with the member states no because the overall crime threats that is something we can share yeah but also with always with the consent of member states because if you refer to examples it's uh sometimes easy to identify which country is involved yeah but there is a big understanding on european level in between the police community and also customs is involved [Music] what we can share and what we can't share so personal operational data you don't share that but you can share the threats to create awareness and to make people aware and also political decision makers aware of the threats the european union is confronted with okay and sort of moving on to another aspect of europe europa has changed quite a bit in the past decade um especially in the last few years you've added other sections to it um like the european cyber crime center and the eu internet referral unit um how has crime changed in an era of digitalization in your experience um yeah it is a big change it has been a big change also for for the law enforcement community we try to be a bit proactive towards prime of the future and indeed when we see the need to create or to be very clear about the tools we offer to member states we work with the center approach because then it's for a member state very clear in that crime area we find those tools and they are at our disposal in that area of the organization so um we have for instance a specialist in cryptocurrencies we we have now a special program related to the uh cyber crime center on ransomware because that is a big threat it's increasing all the time we need to have a good view and also create an approach from police perspective towards that last in 2020 we launched the economic and financial crime center because also during pandemic we saw it's all about money so we have to focus on the money when we it's not about arrests it's it's it's also about the rest but for us it's a lot about money where are the money flows going to where are they coming from where are the beneficial owners how do we protect infect the money in the countries and and the rule of law and how do we prevent infiltration of illegal money in the legal economy because that is what we discovered is a big issue at the moment the crime organizations that we know about 80 of them use the legal in the legal economy to launder their money and that is a big issue that's a big threat a big threat for the legal economy and these changes have they um in the in money laundering and money following have it has it changed the way you monitor money in in europe and flows of money yes i think we had we know that criminals they misuse encrypted communication possibilities and we had some cases the cases together with member states and also with other continents and and with the help of the fbi and the ea and and all these people we were able uh under the judicial oversight to get insights in the encrypted communication and that was really a world opening themselves for us so as law enforcement community we were not completely aware about the streams the money streams and the way of working of criminal organizations until a year or a year and a half ago so when when we discovered that then we adapt and we change our organization and we look for new approaches how to approach those new threats in fact was it not quite late for you to only um figure this these money streams out a year ago it's uh you you you always have to assess the possibilities you have on a legal basis yeah you have data protection you have technological developments and possibilities in the organizations and then what we saw is that a lot of criminals and the demand for encrypted tools and encrypted communication networks were growing so in some member states they launched investigations and then that is the the platform approach from europol you come them together with different countries you assess the situation and if you see that in different countries you are confronted with the same issues and you launch investigations in the same areas then there is a coordination at europol as a platform approach and you you go together in this endeavor and then when you have the judicial oversight and the possibilities and you can decrypt communication channels then you find out a lot because these criminals they were so sure that nobody could read or see what the what the messages were about so it was a box opening for us and it gave us a lot of new insights so kind of you touched upon it already a little bit with privacy legislation in the eu it feels like a lot of these new digital ways of doing crimes the legislative power in the eu is kind of walking behind that and there's still a lack of legislation around for example cryptocurrencies but also privacy and data gathering how does it affect the work in europe it has always been like that criminals always look for possibilities offered by law by gaps in the law by gaps in coordination by capturing communication in between different services they all always look for the the their possibilities and opportunities so they are very flexible and they are very agile they also work with their specialists to look for those gaps and yeah then they make use of them to organize their criminal business and for us it's key to detect also those gaps that may be used by criminals and to try to find creative solutions and we have to work with the legal frameworks we have but the police work shows also that the legal opportunities for us are also there and um at europol we work under judicial oversight so you have prosecutors involved you have instructive judges involved so you have your legal assessments and then you know how far you can go but it's true um we are still uh looking for the perfect balance between privacy and internal security but i really believe that in the long run in we will find the right balance um and in in fact in a lot of member states a lot of judges and police officers are looking to the solutions that are offered already by law at this moment and they apply them do you think that with the expansion of europol um that has been happening over the years you're kind of closing that gap or trying to close time yes it's foreseen in our legislation that every five years we have an evaluation of our legal framework done by the commission to see that we are still future proof and that we can fulfill our mission support member states and series and organized crime and terrorism threats against serious and organized crime and terrorism threats and in fact the legal framework the new one we will have will give us the necessary clarification on the processing of the big data sets i saw when i started at europol in 2019 that the large amounts of data and complex data and to process all this data was really an issue for us and we needed clarification by law and i approached the european data protection supervisor to to help us to interpret law but we the commission was convinced that clarification by law was needed and that is why we have an updated legal framework and in five years it will be evaluated again to see uh is it still future proof do we have to adjust uh something or not so it's uh the changes are really uh taking on board the fact that for the law enforcement community you need to be able to invest in research and innovation you need to be able to process large data sets and also cooperation with private sector has to be recognized because they have the mass of data the private sector they have more than law enforcement than justice that's for sure yeah so you're not the the only organ of the eu of course and um maybe some of these mandates between the different organs of the eu actually overlapped so we were wondering for example with money laundering that she touched upon are there places where your mandate doesn't reach and the ecb for example takes over we have i think it was adopted yesterday the money laundering directive we have there are a lot of agencies and possibilities on european level and we try to cooperate with everybody so for instance with olaf we have a liaison officer from olaf in house we make joint analysis and we do this also with the drugs agency for instance when we have sister agencies we always try to find a way how can we strengthen one in one another and how can we exchange information with one another and most of the time sometimes you can have overlaps but most of the times you have the possibility to collaborate and to um to this to make a clear distinction about uh the different possibilities um you kind of touched upon the drug industry um and we are in the netherlands where there are a lot of ports and exports and so the drug industry continues to be very expansive but in your almost 30 years working in law enforcement did you see any change and trafficking networks do you see that that's sort of evolving as well yes when i started 30 years ago the abuse drugs abuse was rather it was not so common as it is today and what we see now is that the criminal organizations we know 40 of them are active in drugs because it's a very lucrative business we see the big change with the production in colombia 60 of the drugs producted production over there is coming to the eu and not anymore to the us so the eu is more important for those producers than the us at this moment and we see in fact indeed the three important harbors in the union are rotterdam yes [Music] antwerp and hamburg but we see also that smaller harbors are used for drugs but it makes sense then when you have huge flows of containers you also have the volumes they follow one another because the risk of detection is a bit less it's it's difficult to detect everything what is important now is that each country in the european union considers the fight against drugs abuse as a priority and each country in the european union contributes to europol in the drugs fusion center and each country recognizes that financial investigations linked to drugs investigations are extremely important we have to go and to follow the money and we have to make sure that we can seize the money so that the drugs kingpins lose a lot and what we also see is that um different than before is that the kingpins they are not in the european union those the ceos from the drugs cartels they are not in the european union they are outside of the european union in in continents where they feel a bit safer where they have logistics next to them so they are not physically in contact with the executors but then we are in the netherlands which i think is estimated to have the biggest export production of uh mdma and xcc what about export from the eu to different countries yeah we are source country ferment amphitherminus we are transit for cocaine and cannabis and we are producers also for cannabis we have a very good infrastructure in the eu we have very we have a very good economy our standards of life are very high so we are very interesting for criminal organizations not only for drugs but also for other areas for fraud schemes for uh trafficking in human beings exploitation we we are yeah we are rich so where do you get your money you get your money in the continents where rich people are and has the internet had an impact on on those trade markets whether drug trader yes of course it facilitates uh their life a bit they are more global they have the the outreach is uh is bigger what's the strangest use of the internet in the drug trafficking industry you've seen the uh the communication possibilities the encrypted messages and that is the biggest thing yeah all right um we're going to move on to um to another section now um europa has gotten a huge increase in its mandate uh considering its ability to gather data recently and could you maybe explain a bit what those changes are and what it means to your operation yes the the legal framework now is making it clear when we receive data we have to make the distinction do we have data related to an investigation or is it data non-related to an investigation and then the new legal framework foresees different periods to store the data in our databases that's in fact the big the big thing that has changed so that we are sure that people who are who have nothing to do with the crime that we filter them out as soon as possible and people responsible for crimes that they can stay in when we need them to investigate so in fact it's you have to see it you collect the data and we only want the relevant data so we need to process it to filter it out and to only keep the relevant data in our databases and to minimize the risk for the people who have nothing to do with the crime however you've also gained the ability to buy data from private parties like telecom companies right excuse me you've also you've also have the ability to now buy data from we don't buy private parties no you don't we receive data from the justice authorities and the police authorities in the member states and we help them in processing the data okay yeah but in your new mandate we already touched upon a little bit you said that private um companies are a big actor in kind of yes uh gathering this data the big difference with the past with the actual situation will be that when we uh now we will be able to receive data from private companies and to process this data because before we could receive data but immediately we had to send this data to the relevant member state and when we didn't find we could not accept the data so now we will receive the data we still have to make the assessment to define the relevant country but in the meantime we will be able to process the data already and how will you gain access to the data of private companies do they just they like like yeah it's it's a kind of processing okay yeah they just gave it to you yeah it depends it's it's in a criminal investigation it goes with just uh judicial oversight um yeah but for instance um we can receive data from ngos we had this with a terrorist situation in 2016 when ngos were active in syria there was a lot of data they gathered they didn't know what to do with it they come to us and then we filter the data out to see all their links with criminal with terrorist investigations that are ongoing on european soil in european countries but there is a big difference between gathering data from law enforcement agencies that is targeted at criminals as opposed to getting data from telecom providers yes right isn't there a huge privacy concern yes of course and that is why the privacy safeguards in the new legal framework are very very good because you need to have the balance uh how far can you go with um private uh cooperation yeah it's it's since the start of europol it was a big concern from member states and also from the european level that the safeguards related to data protection are taken on board so we have always had a strong data protection supervision we have an internal data protection officer we have now the european data protection supervisor and you had also you have also this board from data protection officers from the member states and in fact i would not say in some cases they decide in some cases they give advice but they have a big role in how we have to process the data okay so a lot of people are involved in ensuring that privacy is true to the effect yeah yeah we've seen i think in the past with the adoption of of data says an algorithm a lot of criticism towards how software can sometimes unjustifiably target a marginalized group or stereotypes europe taken any any action in increasing this data in mandate to counter that um internally you mean by for the processing of the data we receive yes we have as i said the data protection officer is involved in all the developments of the processes and then we have the data protection supervisor who's also involved in in the way we process data and then you have a strong procedures when you start with an operation operating model you have the data impact assessment you have to make for all the cases to assess what is the risk in fact for a citizen and before you before you start with the processing of the data and of course for us we work on ongoing cases in the member states so when data is coming to us in fact it's most of the time linked to an investigation in a member state or two member states so you have already the justice the judicial oversight the decision of a judge to work on that case and which information is relevant for the case before it comes to us so it's a you are in a very well protected area so it's already processed a little bit when it comes to the data yes of course there is already there has already been done an evaluation or national level because we talk about serious and organized crime and terrorism these are very complex investigations so in member states normally the judges the prosecutors are already involved so you have already your first analysis on national level then you need two countries because for cedar is an organized trend you can only come to europe or when two countries are involved in that case then they come to us and then uh we start with the analyzing uh of the whole thing do you ever check this data that comes from from member states do you check if it's not uh using maybe stereotype typical uh software or we are not the controller of the national authorities that's up to the judges they have to be the guarantee for the the integrity in fact of the investigation but then the instructive judges you wouldn't want to to marginalize your eu citizens with with the data processing that you're doing as an eu agency right yeah but i see as i said you have the data protection officer who's looking at all the processes and also tools you have the data protection supervisor looking at the processes and the tools we have our own data protection impact assessment then you have the joint board of data protection officers and we have now 10 percent of our staff is working on data protection in the office so there are a lot of safeguards in place the framework is uh is really strong we have one of the most important data protection legislation in in the whole world as a police office it has been impli it has been growing with the time since the start until now it has been a growing process everybody is aware of that and [Music] when when we receive data from member states we do not scrutinize uh the european union member states because they had a whole process to become member of the european union also their justice systems and their police systems has been evaluated we are not in a position at europa to to to question that it's about european values it's about rule of law and all the members of the european union are at the same level and should have the same standards for police cooperation if there are difficulties it has to be [Music] addressed and assessed by the national parliament by the european parliaments and by inspection services that exist in the different countries and most of all the big guarantee for the police investigations or the justice authorities who are involved in the cases and who are independent from police and from political level has europe ever tipped off the eu parliament of a member state that doesn't really align with these european values and corruption or data gathering we have a lot of sessions with the european parliament also with the joint parliamentary scrutiny group that is a group of national parliamentarians with european parliamentarians they ask us a lot of questions we provide them with the answers and they make their assessment um if member states that is the political level we given for the information we have as far as we can and then because also when you have a judicial case sometimes it's under embargo and the justice authorities have to decide if you can disclose something or not and as i said the information is handled by the member states so it's uh we give the information we can give and then in the european parliament they made the assessment okay and with these new monitoring rules they've installed there's a higher there are higher information flows between member countries within the eu and a general growing access for like to information in the eu why is this necessary why increase flows of information between countries um i think because crime is becoming more global because if you see that the problems you work on what is local is international what is international has local impact so the connection between the two is is really there and in serious and organized crime and terrorism member states they see that they cannot solve the issue alone anymore and and everything related to that area is cross-border so that is why they really need to cooperate to exchange information with themselves because otherwise they will lose their [Music] their possibility to to keep to respect to continue to respect the rule of law and to enforce the rule of law do you see any danger and an increase in information flows and a faster pace of information closely yeah you have to be able to process it yeah yeah you have you need to have the tools uh you need to be able to implement the tools to process the data on a short notice because you cannot afford yourself to have too much information that is not processed in your databases and do you think has enough time for that because there's a very short period of time right to process we prioritize yeah we prioritize yes there's been a call to suspend russia from access to the interval database we talked about this a little bit before with you um how is europol dealing with potential misusage of data by for example more authoritarian eu member states we have the system in place that we have operational agreements with third countries and that is a process that is managed by the european and they are the data protection standards and privacy standards are key and so we can only exchange data with third countries when there is an operational agreement in place otherwise it's not possible and with russia we do not have an operational agreement but for example hungary has been becoming increasingly more authoritarian and there are some kind of concerns from from eu citizens saying well if hungary gets access to this used europol database it might use it to prosecute political opponents we are a technical agency we are a police agency we cooperate with police forces when there are other issues that needs to be discussed in other fora we are a police service how is the procedure what's the procedure like for eu member states to receive data from europol as i said each member states is owner of its own data so if the netherlands they want to receive data from germany that is stored in europol or they want to know is there a link with if the dutch they send information to europe and they want to know if there is a link with another country then we have to ask europol has to ask that other country can we share this with the netherlands or not and if that country says no then it's no what if there's a what if you have a suspicion of a group or an individual um and they go to another country in europe will you is it european's role to inform the local police agencies that of such a group happening of crime activity being moved what we do what we do is when we have intelligence for instance of moving targets we always go back to the source country we ask and we share it and if they agree to share it and we share it yeah do you get a lot of instances of countries saying no to sharing the data no there is a lot of trust in between the european member states they keep this standard relatively high because they also want to know who will have their data they need to know that also for their intelligence picture okay so this is something that really it's there's not too many you don't see a danger in sharing information between new mentors it's a case-by-case evaluation okay but there is a lot of trust in between member states i think it would be interesting to also touch upon a little bit um the war in ukraine like we did a little bit before um europa has some concerns about weaponry um that is going into ukraine now and that might get into the hands of criminal gangs can you explain a little bit more about that yes we have different areas we follow up and we monitor from european perspective um and we do this together with the ukrainian liaison officer in our headquarters because with ukraine we have an operational agreement already from 2017. okay so when the war started we evaluated together with the member states what are the threats we see of course what we saw is trafficking in human beings migrant smuggling because criminal groups they see a lot of people coming in women and children vulnerable groups will they try to get money out of that or not that was the first thing we did then also will it have an impact on the uh [Music] the displacement of organized crime groups when they come more to the european union or will they stay over there that is something we monitor and then of course also the uh armed trafficking now we see that a lot of uh arms will be in ukraine after the war yeah we have to be aware of the risks caused by that we have to to know a bit where their arms will be and if they will be in the hands of criminal organizations or not and in terms of the the refugee situation that we're seeing do you see any parallels to the 2016 syrian refugee crisis no no and is there any um like are there procedures that you've sort of installed now yeah that are similar to that or is it a completely different situation yes we support the member states the border countries we have people from europe all deployed over there to do secondary security checks and um what we see is that that in the first waves a lot of people coming to the european union they joined their family that was already in the european union so that was already a big difference and i must say that we learned a lot of lessons out of the 2016 uh crisis that member states are more prepared how to deal with the streams and there have been far less for example human trafficking in this crisis no not so many cases detected until now and do you cooperate with contracts yes yeah yes from texas they have their police office their offices border guards at the frontier and we have our most of the time our people are in the headquarters and the front tax officers are at the border i think um it's time for us to give the audience a chance this is a very interesting question so are there any people in our audience that want to ask the grown of white on the front um hi thank you so much um i earlier you said the priority for you has been children i'm currently writing my thesis on international parental child abductions and the flaws within the corresponding a 1988 convention um what role do you think europol has played and can play to prevent international parental child abductions from a happening in the first place and to support law enforcement and arrests of abductive parents we do not come in between so much in the investigations because most of the time it's only one country that is involved and uh because you have the parents living in a country and not a second country so we are very much supporting member states in child sexual abuse cases but in parental uh no not we we are we only interfere when we are asked by the national authorities to support them and they need two countries so in these cases we are not much uh solicited any other questions yeah hi uh thank you my name is abba well first of all thank you for being here i think it's been really interesting um i would like to bring it back to russia's war against ukraine you've touched upon the weapon deliveries and when you make these public statements saying that you're worried about weapons ending up in the well the wrong hands are you not worried about the implications of such a statement because i think if respected authorities such as europol states we're worried about delivering weapons do you not think this could shift public opinion within europe against providing weapons to ukraine it's one of our core missions to make the threat assessment and the risk assessment and so if we assess the risks we have to talk about the possible risks we see it's also consolidated with the member states yes to maybe argue against it um if we do not provide ukraine with enough weapons i think the risk is bigger than the risk that is currently there of the weapons handing up and are ending up in the wrong hands yes but we are confronted still today with after 30 years with the big problems we had after the the balkan war with the weapons so it's a national uh it's it's very good that the the european uh member states support ukraine but we have to be to look a bit further because we know now already that criminal organizations will misuse this so we have to be aware of risks for the future to protect our rule of law and to make sure that we have that we reflect already on answers okay let's do one last question um a girl in pink yes hi um then maybe as last question i'd be interested to know where you think europol is kind of going in the future sometimes we hear about a european police force and sort of more cooperation amongst especially intelligence sharing or do you think that national sovereignty will always sort of trump cooperation amongst member states i think it's very important that you keep that national sovereignty is there and because you have the direct accountability towards the the people in your country so europol offers european policing solutions offers a platform for cooperation offers a lot of digital tools forensic tools to support member states in the investigations but i think it's uh the way the system has been developed until now is a good system so no european police force like the european army of the united states we are not a federal state europe is not a federal state so it's already different from the start so i really believe and i have seen the two sides i really believe in the system as it is today it's also a strength of europa every day we have to prove that we can offer something if we do not do that then people will not come law enforcement authorities will not come to us anymore then we will not be relevant it's too easy to think that with orders and with obligations you will uh enhance police work i don't believe in it okay so i think we want to want to ask you one last fun question um so we've discussed what europe was going to do in the near future and your new mandate and and changes that are happening but we were very curious as to which most wanted criminal would you most like to arrest with those new tools that you have in your hand i cannot answer that um but is there any particular area of crime that you're particularly like yeah for me it's a child sexual abuse online this is completely unacceptable we cannot deal with all the images and videos that are on online the abuse of the encrypted communication is for me a scandal this needs to be addressed and i don't want to live in a european union where we do not have the appropriate answer to that so we really have to enhance the fight against child sexual abuse online because it it stigmatizes people for the rest of their lives and and the number of images and pictures uh online uh and that stay online or or unacceptable they are on at an unacceptable level so for me this is the biggest uh it's really a threat to the to the society and it's about children everywhere in the world so if you cannot protect your children or if you don't want to protect your children or if you think you do not need to have solutions for that then i have a big problem with that so from a police perspective we do whatever we can can within the legal frameworks but the abuse of of the communication possibilities for these people abusing children online it's unacceptable let's hope that these new tools will give you the power to kind of change this narrative yeah um mr bulla thank you so so much for your time and your very interesting answers and for our audience again thank you so much for your interest in our discussions over summer we'll have a little summer stuff but you can still check out our interviews on spotify and youtube so please do so and one big applause for ms katrina [Applause] [Music] you

member of our panel is Dr Eric Matson who is a professor and University faculty scholar in the department of computer and information technology here at Purdue he's the director of the Korean software square at Purdue and the co-founder of the M2M lab which researches multi-agent systems Cooperative Robotics and wireless communication with a special emphasis on Safety and Security Systems Professor Matson was previously on the board of the army science and technology for the national academies of science engineering and Medicine he founded an external limited liability Corporation Called autonomous range which builds systems and logistical services for government and private organizations and prior to joining Purdue University Dr Madsen was in Industrial and Commercial software development for 15 years as a software engineer manager and director at companies such as at T and Schneider Electric so let's give a hint to our panelists please [Applause] so the the title of this panel is is deliberately a little bit provocative so it's called conflict and complementation between agile methods and systems analysis When developing and maintaining software intensive systems and so here's here's the motivation behind this panel right and so you're proposing that we need a paradigm shift in designing safety sensitive systems and security systems and that what we need is more top-down analysis and your approach dates sort of from Lessons Learned in the 1950s through 70s it's just not working and we need to do something new now in software engineering there was a similar Paradigm Shift Circa the 90s and 2000s that said we've tried doing top-down engineering design and it doesn't work we need to do bottom-up engineering and sort of iteratively evolve our way towards a a good system whether that system is safe or secure I guess I'd love to talk about with the panelists so that's what's motivating this is sort of these two competing claims to paradomatic change one arguing for more top-down and one arguing for way less top down and a lot more bottom-up work um so that's to set the stage so I'd love to start out with a question sort of generally to make sure that we all have a shared definition of what's meant so we know what you mean by top-down systems analysis I'd love it if one of the panelists or maybe two could comment on what they hear when I say agile methods what the software industry means by that maybe Ryan you could start I think you're the freshest from industry uh yeah that's right and I guess I wanted to bring the perspective that agile is a bit of a placeholder and what goes on in software engineering within the software companies which are not first and foremost safety critical of course is is only sort of superficially called agile for the most part it's a even more chaotic and bottom-up process as it is with open source as well which makes up a very large percentage of the systems that we rely upon today um so I'm I'm taking agile here for the purpose of this discussion as the agile process itself that everybody knows about with this daily scrum and stand up and sort of why don't you go into a little more detail um some of our British Events maybe know what you mean but in the audience they may not sure so if you find people debating online different software processes and they're talking about agile they're most likely talking about not only this system of having an iterative improvement upon something that you have ready as soon as possible rather than a sort of long-term planning process or an older waterfall method or terms you might in terms you might hear but they they're also referring to a set of practices where you'll get up in the morning and you'll have a daily stand-up where people update their status to the other team members you'll do two-week Sprints where you select a set of tasks that are drawn from a backlog there's a certain set of rituals there is a process associated with it but most of much of the software development doesn't follow any sort of explicit process at all and so there's kind of a spectrum of things from top down to bottom up but there's also kind of this other dimension of process heavy versus no process or low process and Eric I understand that you were in more of a defense Contracting larger system building than Ryan was can you talk a little bit about whether you experienced agile methodologies there we actually did both so I spent lots of years especially at ATT at that time ATT was a very rich and probably from a safety standpoint a lot of the model checking and model techniques came out of at T at that time but ATT was also being broken apart which now is kind of more of a cell phone company that it is at one time I think 60 of all patents in the U.S came out of ATT and Sandia and places like that now what we used it for is you know there's if you look at agile versus so like a waterfall those are kind of two ends of the spectrum and for a long time waterfall was kind of the traditional method everybody used but it was fairly slow and plotting and you discovered mistakes very deep and it kind of goes back to your expense it got to be very expensive to change things the way we use it and agile was kind of coming out at that time Alger wasn't the term but it was sort of iterative processes you know when the OMG um kind of started defining all these things and a lot of the things for the software engineering World um we actually use both what we found out is in the software method that the waterfall method people had a very hard time especially on the manufacturing floor getting people to express what they wanted with new systems especially in Union environments places that were highly constricted so we actually used um no we didn't call them scrums at that time because that was a term that came later but we would go out and actually collect data and and use very agile methods to generate requirements uh and then plow them back into the larger methods the good thing about that is the the waterfall method had a lot of especially the way we applied it had a lot of rigor to it and had a lot of structure to it whereas the agile as you kind of you said it's I know Microsoft used the agile for years and they had lots of problems with quality and things like that just because the way they applied it so I think it's I we applied it by using kind of the best parts of both in the and interlocked in the processes and that actually worked pretty well but neither one of them is perfect and neither one of them will do everything you simply wanted to especially in the context of this so so Nancy Eric just talked a little bit about systems with maybe something more safety or security requirements and higher stakes in play and how in his experience they sort of used a bit of prototyping to to explore what the operators experience and to explore what the system's capable of can you talk about how that kind of prototyping information can feed back into the the top-down analysis and the systems engineering perspective you bring well first first of all let me I I differ with your first uh go ahead different as much statement about what describing what top down development is that's that top-down development and people think they're doing top-down development they say oh we do top down we break it into a Visa components and then we work at each of the components and we put them together that's bottom up I mean that first step of breaking in the components is easy trivial that's not top down top down is real top down development means you look at the entire system at various levels of distractions starting with the very high level of abstraction but you're looking at the system as a whole that's the first first thing I'd say um the second thing is I think the people are are making of false art a false dichotomy that something has to be everything has to be agile or it has to be something else I mean that's that's silly I mean it's like saying um you know we should um do everything build every system exactly the same way and that's that's not reasonable there's different kinds of systems and we need to tailor our methods if you have 8 000 engineers and four thousand of them are software Engineers distributed around the whole country what are you going to have a scrum with 4 000 people on Zoom I mean that's insane it doesn't make any sense um if you're building a system that's going to be thrown away it's some new app you're going to get rid of it in three months you want it out quickly because then you get market share this is what the Silicon Valley does and it doesn't have to work so well as long as people start using it and then you can get them a new version and another one later and they'll be happy and they won't go to your competitor then you use agile but you you I mean it's insane to talk about using agile on some giant complex systems it's going to be around for 30 years is going to have to be continually changed it's like saying um I I'm not going to look at a map and plan my route I'll just randomly go around the streets and help I find the place that I'm going to if you don't know where you're going you can't get there and um and I believe and so here there are things and you know this whole agile thing is this changed I've seen at breakfast we um the dod has swallowed this whole agile business and they had this one thing where they were they were implementing something in Afghanistan it was a refueling system for scheduling refueling of air planes in the air and they did it on this whiteboard they had this little yellow stickies and they stick it up there and they did this for a couple years and someone said well you know maybe we should automate this so they automated it had a small company Kessel Run in Boston do it took them a very short amount of time the thing was only going to be used when they were in Afghanistan so it's deadline but they knew exactly what the requirements were they knew the algorithm they'd been doing it by hand for um for for years so yeah we're so then the DSE oh well then we should do all all systems that way I just got a call from some email from someone a large defense contractor I can't mention the name and they wouldn't even tell me the project so it's I'm sure it's secret and they said well they told us we have to use agile and they also said we can't write requirements we just need they'll give us some use cases and we just should use those use cases and I said and and but we don't know how to make sure that this thing is going to be safe I assume this is something that explodes or does something bad and I said well you can't I mean I'm not going to be involved I you can't um that's stupid um so I wish them luck so I'm not a a fan of Angela unless it happens to be a certain kind of problem I also not sure I agree totally with you about people not knowing what they want people don't know how to tell you what they want um but I've gone in I made some scratch that undergraduate software engineering students go in and Boeing they had a program problem and and they were going to implement it for them and but I thought an interviewing techniques I taught them how some sophisticated techniques were figuring out really figuring out what these people wanted to do and needed to do and they could after but it takes more work it takes prototyping sometimes so that they try it they say well no that's not what I'm doing I want to do but there are ways of doing these things I don't think that just doing away with it and saying building anything and then saying well do you like it is a solution to that problem go ahead we actually on that it wasn't a matter of saying they didn't know they absolutely do know they know their jobs well the biggest issue especially if you like we were going into a lot of like heavily Union shops we're getting them to change was damn near impossible so what we do is you you had kind of two methods one you'd say okay you have the fear of the white page so you give a white page and say tell me all the things you'd like to have in your new system and you'd get back the page and it would be completely empty or you'd get a list to be exactly the same functionality they currently have and you're not going to do anything new so what we would often do is we'd go in there really quickly for like a week develop a new system develop a prototype and say okay play with this this is what you're going to get and then that would drive tremendous money oh no this is this is not going to work for us and then they would give you an extremely detailed list of everything wrong with it and things like that so we would use a lot of those kind of techniques on the shop floor to drive requirements and drive specifications because that worked extremely well because sometimes dragging it out of them you know we'd get pushed back from the union boss or the the stewards and things like that and say nope we're not changing it at all it's like well look I'm just the software engineer you know I I don't I don't make those changes but the reality is we're going to get a new system and you either get what you want or you're going to be forced into something and it sometimes it's not easy yeah they definitely know what they want because they know their job better than anybody the reality is extracting that from them is sometimes a long and painful process until you put it on them to say okay here's what you're going to get and then they'll be very willing to give you more feedback we just need better tools we don't have good requirements engineering tools but better tool that doesn't mean that we shouldn't do it um we it's an important part of of engineering and Engineers especially computer people want to get through the programming where's some code I can write um doing a whole bunch of specifications and sitting meetings isn't real fun so I'd love to ask your perspective on what I think of its kind of pollution from the non-safety critical software world this world where I've spent most of my time in tech companies where it's almost I guess to take a kind of Devil's Advocate position it's almost giving up on software engineering management instead saying let's have this frothy soup of all the brightest Engineers just trying things and reward people for what they for what they accomplish and out of this kind of darwinian darwinian soup you'll get some good stuff but Gmail was a 20 project or or what have you um but in this world of software engineering both inside the major tech companies and inside open source where it's just passion projects that people are working on uh in their nights and weekends we get all this software made and then now my car is full of all kinds of software including the Linux kernel which isn't developed with any sort of rigorous procedure but it's just the dominant software platform and uh and so as this world of Open Source software and this kind of mainstream programming culture uh develops all this uh library of software then it makes its way into what I think of as safety critical systems I don't actually know if this has penetrated as much into our airplanes or our missiles as it has in our cars but um but do you do you see it as a problem with sort of insufficiently vetted softwares thinking across because it's convenient that it's there well I don't think it's just safety critical systems I mean clearly it's the safety critical is um it makes it you know a compelling argument but I don't want to lose money I don't want to have to you know something like 50 of large software projects are never finished 50 percent and of the ones that are finished something like another half of those never used by anyone they were delivered because they someone had to deliver them and then nobody uses them there's something wrong with what we're doing here and I don't think it's going to be so bad angel um agile was sort of a at the beginning was a a reaction against the uh software productivity Consortium stuff the the maturity capability model what was it MCC or something whatever because that sort of treated humans as machines and it was not the right way to get good software and get people but we The Other Extreme is you know teeth at all is just human creativity is also I think a mistake we've got to get somewhere in the middle again did you have something to add yeah so I just want to add that regardless of the specific software or system development methodology that you adopt it is always good to be backed by systematic system analysis in different aspects the process modeling system modeling and you do have to look at the entire system as Dr Levinson mentioned you have to look at the system as a whole and safety security should always be the first class citizen when you start the system design and you don't want to be in a haze to actually you know decompose the system into components and say that oh you know you work on this you work on that you swim in the swim Lane and you swim on that because you know at the end you know based on you know what we see the vulnerabilities or the weakest link or the Achilles heel usually you know exists at the border between these system components right so I think top-down analysis modeling is valuable in the sense that you try to capture these overarching properties and prop uh functions and you know different aspects and try to reflect that and try to keep that in mind throughout your end-to-end design implementation process so you know you can do for example CI CDs scrum all kinds of agile or traditional software development it should always be backed by you know a sound system analysis modeling methods methodologies that's what I've done in before we tackle that I'd love it if you could talk a little more about some specific vulnerabilities that you've identified in your researcher and reading that really sit at these intersections of components thank you so I think that's a uh yeah it's good that you mentioned this so in fact when I when I was listening to Dr Levinson's presentation about the the use of constraint to actually constrain the behavior of system that resonates tremendously with what I'm doing in the context of UAV security so what we have a project that aims at looking at the the controller of the uav's system from both the control and the control for both the model and the program perspective and a lot of the vulnerabilities that we realize are not necessarily you know the problem or the fault of the system or control engineer it's actually the process of translating or implementing a very well and scientifically sound control algorithm into the control program and you tend to see a lot of bugs that you know are kind of introduced because of a lack of a kind of a secure programming or because of a lack of understanding of both the systems aspect and the software engineering aspect you know bugs as simple as a wrong variable name so you you define a kind of a conceptual you know like control variable in the abstract model and when you write the control program you know sometimes you made a mistake you use a different program name just program variable as simple as that and sometimes you know how often you do Bank checking how often you do integer overflow check but for overflow and all these you know uh problems are in we have seal we have seen a lot of those in both uh open source and commodity uh autonomous vehicle control framework uh software Frameworks so I just want to there I'm sure they're graduate students out here looking for topics things to work on and um I I just don't think we need another um compiler um we need there's really not been enough in systems analysis as you said and um that includes software systems analysis and if be good if you can expand that to engineered systems that include lots of software but that's where the real wins are today that's where the real important stuff is going to come from I think did you have something to add a chance to defend compilers perhaps go for it um yeah so uh I guess I did want to ask the vision of system modeling so let's maybe narrow the scope to cyber physical systems and we're not talking about arbitrary software only projects because I would challenge you to find like a software only project at a major tech company that does any systems analysis or system modeling um I haven't heard of one I'd like to see an example but um in the Cyber physical case when you are performing stpa or other system modeling methodologies do you envision this as ultimately being connected to the code there is still code certainly and it's connected to code in a formal an unbreakable way where the human doesn't get to mess up the variable name and screw it up at the last mile when model hits reality um I wanted to bring this a bit to the question of formal verification and uh connecting that form of verification back to code in a mechanized way which is something that our programming languages researchers and the people who are building new compilers Adam chapala's group at MIT um are are very much uh looking at okay so well I guess a question for both of you really oh yeah no go ahead um so I I think this is a this is a great point I think in the domain of cyber physical systems uh we so I think the software actually plays a special role in the CPS in the sense that the software is almost a digital twin of the physical system so it's not just yet another component of the entire system it's actually a reflection of that system right in the software you know in in a relatively formal way so we at least in my own experience it is always valuable to actually have almost like side by side it's really a real abstract System model for example like the like the the sixth degree of Freedom right for a UAV you know its corresponding controller and the cascading of the Primitive controller that controls the position the velocity the acceleration so you have that plot and on the other side you actually have your program CFG like control flow graph and data flow graph and you actually want to create this one-to-one mapping between you know the the abstract controller and the specific program module the uh the abstract control variable names and the program variable names and you almost try to create this road map right that creates this one-to-one mapping between these type like physical components control model and the actual program implementation and we use that as the roadmap to unite the system engineers and the software Engineers so that every time if they find you know they realize that they may have a communication problem we always go back to that kind of a general we go to that same page right to actually see oh you're talking about this control algorithm and then that corresponds to this software module or I found this bug in this piece of color or that actually could create some kind of a physical consequence on for example the uh you know hovering or taking off or Landing mode of the of the of the vehicle operation so I think that matching is very important which is not typically done in developing a traditional piece of software like web browsers or web servers sure but just to clarify to make sure we understand the example like if I come along and do mutation testing and flip the X variable in the model with the Y variable in the actual code what catches there we if we break the correspondence between the model and the code which which part of the tooling is going to then complain and cry out so I think you will have so for for CPS you always have to set up a kind of a testing framework that involved not just the program but also the entire system right it could be a real system or it could be a simulator I think for autonomous vehicles you typically you involve a kind of a high fidelity simulator so basically you monitor not only the program execution but the entire vehicle operation and you do a lot of instrumentation and measurements so that you can actually measure the health the health in in terms of control as well as program execution of the system at any time so sometimes if you realize that you know your uh you know your state no longer track that goal then you realize that you know maybe your control algorithm is not executing properly even though the program keeps running right so in the traditional program you know fuzzing thing you hit a jackpot every time you have a crash so in our experience sometimes a control program it doesn't crash but it is definitely not right so I think this is actually kind of new I mean at least to me I feel that this is something that uh that that is quite interesting to me and actually highlighting the importance of overall system modeling so Nancy can you talk a little bit I mean you you had a slider at the end about all the ways you've applied stamp and some of them include building tools for I assume systems Engineers to use do those tools bridge the gap between the systems engineering model and the software underneath or are you relying on sort of human operators to do that that mapping yeah you know virtually every accident involving software that I've I've heard about or been involved in investigating and there's hundreds of them every single of them was a software requirements problem not a software coding there we we Cody near is pretty much out you know if you could spend some money and time on it it's worth it you can you could do pretty well on that so what you do is you start with system requirements and then you generate from that the the requirements for the different components the hardware the software the humans and but you have to start by doing an analysis of the system as a whole and the operation that's required so I mean I agree with everything you're saying um it's just it's a loss it's a field that just bids out it's gotten enough attention in in computer science I used to be one Eric uh did I see you twitch the microphone earlier to okay but this the the one thing to kind of ad is one thing is is I spent a lot of time we we've done a couple of projects actually here at Purdue with the Air Force research Labs on microwave vehicles and in particularly um if you look at there's very few teams doing microwair Vehicles like flapping Wing robotics it's a defense thing until hypersonics came in and kind of took all the money away so we continue the actual work and what we did was you have the model you have the software you have the actual cyber physical implementation which is the control vehicle but what they were interested in and what we actually did for them was in the middle of it actually update the model based on it's it's not you know the I do a lot of work for the military the military is very interested in survivable systems um we also do a lot of the man done man mum T the man done man teaming uh with these systems um I can't talk about some of it but we can talk about some of it um but the really interesting thing that that they want us to do and what we're working on now and we're getting like second level of funding for Air Force research Labs is not only comparing the the model and the software but updating the model in the middle of the actual execution so for example if you have a flapping Wing robot and the wing gets clipped off well that's going to change your control model that's going to change how the bird flies you know if you think of it as a bird which it is um and you actually have to adjust your model to be able to adjust it which is very complex when in the middle of a flight but we actually showed that you know it's not proven because you can't prove any of those kind of physical things but you can show that it is valid that you can do it and so there's a lot of really cool things out there especially for the grad students if you're looking for really cool projects like this yeah it's not so much of a safety concern because the thing is very small and the worst it could do is Crash you worry about the safety of the actual the the safety of the vehicle uh you know it's if you're looking at like a predator drone that's a little different story you know you're looking at the safety and especially for uh lethal systems but I think there's a really cool concept there where we kind of even go beyond that and that's kind of why I was interested in some of the things you were saying is is how do we actually update the model in the middle of that operation to adjust the model to make the model better and so we're doing a lot of work with that and and and we're applying that to the mum T system so mum T is just a word manned unmanned for the the US Army so so this is a broad question I'm not sure which of you wants to pick it up but maybe more than one of you so when we talk specifically about trying to evolve complex systems that have been built and often that involves changing the software in some way one of the goals of agile methods is to facilitate moving a thing from a working state to another working state and one of the challenges there is measuring whether it's still working and so the typical approach has been running tests on it right and it'd be nice if we could instead prove somehow based on our models that it's working properly and and a perennial problem or at least a perennial claim in the software engineering practitioner Community is that you can't scale formal verification of your systems there's just too many states and it will take a million years to prove that anything really complicated is is working so can any of you comment in your own particular sub areas on how true is that claim how close are we to letting Engineers over a two-week Sprint modify an existing complicated code base and be still very confident that you didn't regress behavior in a way that will compromise safety or security I can kind of this is some of the stuff we're doing so in in reference to that um yeah when you have if you look at the entire system as a whole it's kind of like calculating the chess game you know a few years ago you couldn't do it until deep blue and some of them came out the reality is though is what I know what we've worked on and what I've seen others do is the model doesn't have to represent every single thing something does right you look at the most important aspects of it the safe the the critical aspects of it from an operational standpoint and then sort of approximate that versus approximating every single possible thing this cyber physical system could do and that's oftentimes calculable I mean you can actually go out and calculate the States you can look at those kind of things and that's worked quite a bit now the biggest issue and it kind of goes back to what you're saying before is is the one thing that people do a really important job of is defining why their systems are so complex is it because they have too many too many linkages to too many things there's too many couplings you know in software engineering coupling was always the dirty word you wanted your systems decoupled but that creates a problem in this because if your systems are decoupled you can't see the giant system as a whole you know and each one is kind of its own little individual so I think you can make approximations based upon the most critical factors of a system and that's worked pretty well from a practical standpoint it doesn't necessarily work from a purely theoretical standpoint one of the the another topic you I thought of that I think people should be working on is you may have read it you should if you haven't you should it's Frederick's uh paper no Silver Bullet and we've all read it hopefully um where he says that there are certain we add a lot of complexity into the systems ourselves but there is still just some complexity that's part of the problem that we can't get rid of so I'd like to see people come up with how do we create systems Design Systems without added complex unnecessary complexity because we do a lot of it I I think at Purdue you guys have this herb um what is the Goldberg the the yeah we have a Goldberg challenge the yeah very complicated thing you know the adding complexity and for complexity's sake unfortunately we sometimes do that too often accidentally and not on purpose and we so I think a good topic that we've got to get is how do we create systems from the beginning instead of leaning on Assurance you cannot assure a 10 100 million line piece of software 100 million lines in a soft in a car today you cannot assure that forget it if you found the problem you can't fix it without causing 20 others the more serious ones and you can't be sure that you haven't caused 20 other more serious ones so we've got to figure out how do we build these things in from the beginning how do we what I see people do is they get a set of requirements and then they immediately create an architecture and what architecture they use well it looks like something they've always done before instead of we don't have any theories for how do you design what kinds of architectural principles should you use to get certain properties out of systems all systems have multiple properties what kinds of architectural design techniques can we create to do those how do we analyze them how do we look at the trade-offs between this this may be more reliable but less efficient how do we create architectures how do we start there's not enough at the beginning of the design process and unfortunately in software and it's just historically we leans a lot on testing I used to be in testing you can't test them I'm sorry you have to but you're not going to get much out of testing um either we start designing systems and becoming more mature in our ability to create an engineer system from the beginning or we're going to still have 60 70 percent of our our assist complex systems we build are never used by anyone and can't be used and that's that's a shame that's Cummins waste of resources do you view computation or in particular Computing horsepower provided by machines is offering any advantage for reasoning about complexity at this kind of system requirements level so you would think at a glance that um you the computers can evaluate many more chest States Dolly can generate uh artwork synthetically with a tax prompt you know computers solve these amazing problems that would be Beyond human capability but when it comes to thinking of complex combinations and requirements that are going to yield a failure like some of your examples uh it seems like we should in some sense be able to use computers to reason through some of these unforeseen and transitive consequences better than humans can but I'm not hearing that there's any lever for that right now that I can warm up a computer and have any additional help with this kind of uh holistic system safety reasoning I I always said I I definitely agree with you Ryan I also observed that you know uh the uh like large-scale software development uh especially in terms of the human developer management I think that is still not very scalable in the sense that you know even for you know like World kind of large-scale real-world production system um so again I talked to some of my colleagues in Industry working in the like the names that I don't want to name but um they said that despite the complexity of the problem and also the number of software Engineers like hundreds of them thousands of them involved in the development and maintenance of that software the core team the people who actually are you know you know critically responsible for you know CI CD and making those critical commits is a surprisingly small subset I would say two digit absolutely so I feel that this is not very scalable right because now we have all these computing power you know sitting there you know that can be waiting to be leveraged maybe to speed up or to uh perform some of the tasks that the human developers are routinely doing these days to you know to improve the productivity and the reliability and facilitate the communication and you know smoother CI CD processes but in the traditional software development and software bug elimination process computation is helping with increasing testing and with increasing formal verification you already mentioned fuzzing but also in the formal verification side so testing and verification are very different things correct and we are getting closer to a world where a human being can write additional logical specifications in their code and a large number of those can be mechanically checked yeah so if you're using something like liquid Haskell or the pristi system for us there's there's increasingly the ability to have a in this case a smt solver do a lot of the work for you when it comes to discharging verification obligations but when will that become mainstream in programming well I'm a dreamer and I can I can hope it will be the majority of programmers in a couple two or three decades but uh but now it's certainly not the the mainstream yeah and even if we had wonderfully verified kernels and compilers and pure software systems then there's this whole separate question about how it relates to system specifications in cyber physical systems and that that's actually the specifications themselves are changing because you know you want new features you want new you you're defining new performance and functional metrics right that you need to take into consideration yeah on the Fly I guess most of our traditional software formal verification requirements weren't really moving targets we want to make sure there's not memory errors we don't have an out-of-bounds access we prove certain properties about a kernel in terms of safety or isolation but they don't change a lot right I think it's also interesting as as Dr Levinson mentioned you do need to identify some of these constraints and sometimes you do need to mine the the existing system the uh the the code the documents and even the Operation Log of the system to derive the constraint that needs to be enforced in in the system so we're approaching the end of this and we'll head into a q a session I'm sure there's lots of questions out there um but since many of the folks in the audience are students planning to head into industry when they finish I'd love it if each of you um could share any thoughts you have about as Engineers what ethical responsibility you have as a professional and as a member of a professional discipline towards pursuing safety and pursuing security holistically in the systems You're Building regardless of the Engineering Process agile or waterfall or whatever um how should Engineers be thinking about their their duties to society and and as they're doing their work chapter book on ethics it's the first chapter and I put it first on purpose because while it's the second chapter but I wanted people not to skip it there's an introduction before that um every and I one of the things I make my students do is look up the code of ethics for their professional society and there is one for the ACM and for every Professional Organization and nobody's ever read them and but they should and I just make them look up so that they can see that there is and and there are always they always contain safety as one of the professional responsibility um and unfortunately I see people not doing that there was a some people that might feel never speak not a lot of people at MIT will never speak to me again but there's this one group who advertised this new class for undergraduates where they were going to have them use machine learning and and whatever and create tools for medical tools and they were going to be able and they advertised that they were going to be used at local hospitals and I looked and it didn't look like they had anything about safety in this so I called them up I say I I wrote a bill I said are you getting teach safety and they said no I said don't you think you should you're going to use this on real people yeah and they said no and I said well you know that's really unethical so they said well if you want to come and teach them a class I'm supposed to come teach their class and if you want to come and we'll give you a couple hours to teach them about this um and I said no it's not my responsibility to teach every everything you shouldn't you know people don't seem to think about the ethical responsibilities I think that's what you may be getting at and they're not thinking enough and we're not teaching them enough to explain to them there's people's lives at stake that was what you most of what you're doing or their money which is also you know their livelihood all of these things we're being we're responsible for them we have to take that seriously as as what we're doing with our lives well let's take a minute and thank the panel and we've got about 15 minutes for questions so if you have a question for the whole panel to consider or a specific person um there's a couple microphones around shoot up your hand and we'll get you a mic okay um thank you and um it was a very explosive lecture and interactive session so I have two questions here one for um Nancy and um the second one for Prof don't care one okay so the question is on constraint so the whole um one one thing I got from your lecture is like um from this interactive session is that the whole concept of um the new paradigm is about enforcing constraints of on a system but these constraints first need to be identified um so I'm actually now curious first to identify these constraints how do like are there newer ways to identify these constraints on a system and secondly what happens if we miss a constraint or an important constraint um yeah thank you I didn't hear it so the questions were um how do we find the constraints in the first place your Paradigm requires that we have them so where do we get them and are there new tools and techniques that you could talk about and the second part of the question was what are the potential consequences when we miss a constraint and how do we find it before the plane crashes yeah you know we can only do let me do the second one I mean the that you can only do as much as you can I mean the world's that perfect engineering is never going to be perfect I will never ever claim that my tools find all the unknown unknowns they find many of the unknown unans but not all of them nobody can guarantee that in any kind of analysis program um and but we need to at least do the state of the art we need to at least do as much as we can that's all we can do how do we find the hazard identifying the hazards are not is not usually very hard um part the only thing that may be tricky is getting the stakeholders to tell you what their priorities are because it's not our responsibility to decide what's what's important to them or not they have to decide what's important to them are we just a client of theirs but that's not usually the problem identifying the constraints are pretty simple actually it turns out this is the rest of the stuff figuring out whether they hold is the real problem in your system or how to build a system that always enforces them so I do feel that this is almost like a kind of an iterative process sometimes in the first iteration you may not be able to identify the full set of constraints that you want to enforce for the system but you can actually do that throughout you know the the production or the test operation of the system and as I also mentioned earlier you are also able to derive some of these constraints from the system itself so put it in a for example a clean and safe environment operator system you know uh you know with guarantee make sure that you see all the normal operation and at the same time collect as much data as possible so this is where machine learning comes to the rescue so you can actually mine the data to derive some of the rules invariants or constraints that are not even specified in the design document for example these parameters are supposed to satisfy this mathematical relation so and then you can have the human expert verify that and see if the your program or if your system actually enforces that rule or that constraint and you can actually do that in an iterative or kind of a spiral process hello this is a question referring to your previous uh lecture Ms Levinson but uh for the plane incidents why didn't they check out why didn't the software check altitude in order to determine if the plane was Landing or not so the question was in some of the examples that you shared of the aircraft accidents right how did they know that they're Landing yeah and so that they've landed they use different cues uh one is weight on wheels how you know is their weight on the wheels you can measure that with sensors in your wheel they use things like wheel turning rate so if you're Landing you're you're going your wheels should be turning the wheels are are you know the landing gear is extended before you get down but it's not going to rotate unless until you get on the ground and start rotating it so there's a whole bunch of cues was that the question yeah so part of the question was why not use something like an altitude sensor do those not exist are they too expensive or is it a bad method in the the existing World why not use an altitude that's it um there must be a good reason I don't know I don't build a design aircraft but there must be a good reason they may not be accurate enough uh they um they did on the um in Mars polar Lander that was the spacecraft that that crashed into the Mars when we tried to land it and um they have um they they did try and use an altitude sensor but they also use I mean these things fail everything's well so you have multiple things and they had these very sensitive sensors on the landing legs but it turned out called hall effect sensors and they're very very sensitive because as soon as you get down on the surface there's this thing a Thruster that's that's slowing down the aircraft like a reverse thrusters inside the spacecraft um by pushing up against us how it slows it down so it doesn't crash into the surface and they actually um used this it turns out that when they they have to extend these wheels this um before they get down to the ground and there's some noise that that gets generated when the legs are extended and the engineers knew about it and they didn't tell the software Engineers about it so the software Engineers didn't know about it thought it had landed and then turned off the reverse Thruster basically this descent engine and it crashed um but they have they had also some altitude sensors it's just it's I I don't really know why there must be some do you know any do you know why they don't use them my educated guess is that you know because Sensor Fusion is very typically used they actually use not one because you don't want to critically depend on on just one sensor right but you know because of this quote-unquote uh democracy among these different sensors IMU whatever they need to reach an agreement right before raising a real alarm and sometimes if they cannot especially because of the malfunctioning of a subset of them then they cannot agree with each other and you know that's really a kind of a fuzzy kind of a false positive or false negative moment and I think this is my guess is that you know this is the reason why inaccurate uh or you know like FP or FN or false positive or false negative happen and I think the situation you mentioned you know talk we talked about belongs to that they have things like brand proximity sensors uh that they use to make sure you're not going to hit the ground before you um but you remember ground isn't necessarily all flat you know you can have a hill and go over there and you think that you're now landed and you're you're not you know now all of a sudden that's not Hill was there there are actually actually a fair number of airports that have big mountains right in front of them there not real safe to land at um they have a lot of accidents running into them I think I saw a question over here hello so uh first thank you very much for sharing your experiences move it closer to your mouth thank you very much for sharing your experiences I have a question uh if you could share your comments on the V model the V development model where you design the requirements on your test so the question is waterfall with a kink in it well it was it's wonderful they just it was hard to draw all those lines going back so they made a kink in the waterfall so that it was easy to draw the lines without them hitting Crossing each other that's artistic anyway yeah the V model can you use the microphone please so um maybe if you could elaborate in your comments on on it uh so I'm guessing maybe you are not a big fan of it so he's he's curious if you like the V model or waterfall I you know I don't what I try and teach the first class in Microsoft and system engineering classes I want them to look at all the different criteria that might affect the processes they choose to use in system engineering we have a long list of them it has to do with the types of systems what they're going to be used by who's going to use them and stuff there is no one model we want to simplify it down and so there's one thing we should use for everything Andrew works for some things I'm not even against agile it's just you have to match your system Engineering Process to the problem you're trying to solve and I don't think we teach people that we we fall in love with one model Al has to be waterfall I'll be agile it all has to be um uh you know there's more than those spiral there's there's dozens of these um it depends and I've seen some comparative studies that showed that when they used uh they compared a uh an iterative more iterative model with a waterfall model and they did two different teams and the more iterative one the users liked better because it satisfied their needs but they weren't as easy to maintain they were much less reliable they were other you know there's different properties you're not going to find we've got to stop being naive but thinking there's one model that's going to be perfect for everything you've got to we've got to teach people on that we don't do I don't think enough to match the model with the properties of this problem we're trying to solve I think from my experience you have a couple of things one is matching the model with what you're the problem you're trying to solve the second is people don't they think the model is going to solve everything for them oh we just follow these steps and everything will just magically happen the rigor the discipline all of those things that they don't when they don't employ those it doesn't matter what model you use you're going to end up with a disaster and that's why the old software engineering Institute you know most most software engineering programs whether they were safe or not were 250 percent over budget they were never came in on time and then what happens is because you're over budget management comes in and says okay kill all the testing you know kill all the you know model checking kill all those kind of things and go right to coding software and it's literally something out of a Dilbert cartoon you know just start writing code because that's what we want to see we don't care about all this other stuff just write code and I can't tell you I could sit and tell you stories of how we changed an entire software project because my ceio got invited to the Nagano Olympics you know we had to change all the dates just for that you know so you have all this arbitrary nonsense that kills the discipline kills the rigor of the project and that's the biggest that was the biggest issue I ever saw was the the process the process can be followed but if you don't do it correctly you don't care um it doesn't matter that none of that stuff will solve any of your problems it'll just make it worse because you spend a lot of time documenting stuff you're not going to follow so I think we have time for one more question thank you everybody for the insightful discussion so uh one question I had for everybody in the panelists so far most of the examples you've given are somewhat physical systems like airplanes and Torpedoes and so for can you give me an example from your career uh consisting of a more abstract system like a software only system because I believe it would be kind of different so are you looking for an example of a failure or an example of applying these methods to Ophelia yeah okay given the time constraints maybe one or two of you could comment on a software only or an I.T systems failure that you thought was particularly spectacular and maybe could be traced to not thinking about the whole system with software physical systems fail software is an abstraction it's a pure abstraction it has no physical reality how does an abstraction fail I mean it it doesn't it doesn't stop working it doesn't break it's um it's just an abstraction that isn't useful for the problem you want to use it on um so so that's you know I I got distracted by the words of the word failure because I you know it drives me crazy also human failure drives me crazy I mean when your heart stops you fail otherwise the human's trying to do the right thing and in a different situation it probably would be the right thing and they didn't have the information they needed to know what was the right thing I don't did they fail they were doing the best they could with with what they got so what was the question so um I'll repeat the question Ryan looks ready and then you can come back after he's oh good so yeah I guess I would say that um for major websites that everyone uses like Google or Facebook uh there have certainly been outages over the years and in my personal experience they mostly have to do with fairly small traditional software bugs so things like um a uh unsigned integer instead of an integer uh it will not go negative instead it will wrap around things like bounce overflows the kind of little bread and butter errors that are the things we deal with in uh cs101 programming assignments are also the things that can cause major problems for major pieces of software at some level so often it's not necessarily even some incredibly subtle interaction between 57 different components that necessarily bring something down it can also be the little stuff which is why maybe one of the um one of the rules that we should follow is is to not mess up the little stuff and to use the best available technology for example you use rust don't use C plus plus don't have bounds overflows by Design know which which objects can be shared between threads and which types are signed and unsigned and required extra checks and have and have that be enforced so you don't mess up the little stuff so Nancy maybe to close this out and to tie this back together for teams that are experiencing you know this is the problem is I'm losing my hearing as I'm getting old and microphones are the worst because they distort sound so I apologize to everyone I'm trying so Ryan just mentioned that major companies Google and Microsoft and Facebook have outages that cost them on the order of millions of dollars that can be traced as a sort of a root cause to an integer overflow could we use your methods to not have an integer overflow cause millions of dollars of losses at these companies what would you suggest that they change in terms of constraints they can Define or processes they should pick up or what do you think Google's using our stuff by the way um they they love they love it um if this isn't this isn't um a component engineering I do system engineering and um yeah that I'm I'm sure there are problems where we have stack Overflow and all these things we've always had them we have a lot of tools to get rid of them most of the time when we have those people didn't use the tools right I mean I don't think that this is necessary uh you know impossible to deal with nowadays but it's not the kinds of things that are causing ex real problems I mean because of them a problem because their customers don't like having outages but it's not causing accidents um the real systems they spend so much time on them that they don't it's not coding in this that are the problem even when there are coding errors um they don't seem to be causing the big big problem they've been they looked at all the spacecraft software for years at JPL and they have found there were uh requirements problems and there were coding problems but the coding problems just didn't cause the loss of the of the spacecraft I think that brings us to a group I think why I mean we probably could so let's speculate thank the panel again um thank you Dr Shu and Dr Newton and Dr Matson and especially Dr levison for joining us today I hope you all learned a lot about safety engineering and assuring holistic properties and enjoyed this dialogue about software engineering and systems engineering methods and some of the different application domains so thanks again for coming continue [Music]

Women's Cooking vs. Men's Cooking | A Conversation with Mark Miller
McARDLE: You talked about how women and men’s palates are different. How is their cooking different? I mean, there is an editor I know now at Eater, was at Saveur, who said that male cookery was all sort of knives, guts, and fire. “Knives, spice, and fire,” I think, was how she put it. That often seems like a fair characterization. My guy friends really want to load up the heat. I remember having a guy tell me that the secret to really good cooking was just dump Cajun seasoning all over everything. [laughter] McARDLE: How do women cook differently? MILLER: I mean, we’re not going to get into developmental theory here. McARDLE: No, no — what are the characteristics of it? MILLER: I can tell you the general broad strokes: women are essentially more concerned with internal experiences. They are more motivated to talk to someone in a dining room table. The guy will look at the television. You get four guys, and the four women will talk to each other. The point is, is that early on, there’s a better internalization of the phenomenological world inside the body. They actually begin to recognize those characteristics of things that are what I would call “body perceptuality.” That tends to be a little bit more subtle. It tends to be a little bit more in time. They don’t like the transformative process as much as understanding the — I’m going out on a limb — but they would prefer to accept the flavor, personality as is and understand it, rather than change it into something, that I do. Like Fuchsia said, if you took that carrot, that pork, that kidney, and just made it spicy, that’s what guys — they want to change it and transform it. They want to create something new. They want to actually not allow . . .If you allowed nature to take its course, then you wouldn’t be cooking. You don’t have to heat. You’re not transforming with spice. Except for Lydia Shire in Boston — she was the only one that I could never tell — women tend to actually believe that the ingredient should be left alone (Alice Waters or that school of cooking), and that you can literally coax natural ingredients into something that’s complex and satisfying and sophisticated and healthy. And if it’s sustainable, it’s even better. Men: I believe that if we go too far, that we’re not going to learn how to make moles, that we’re not concerned with other black bean soups. When I lived in Guatemala, every woman in the village made black bean soup. Not one of those women ever told me, “I go to the market and buy organic black beans, so mine is better.” No. [laughs] Every woman knew how good her black bean soup was. The best woman in the village, she has 37 steps. She really got me going. Women tend to be more focused and more creative and more subtle. It doesn’t mean that they’re not as rich a tradition. It just means that it’s a different level of recognition.

Apologia Pro Vita Sua | John Henry Newman | Biography & Autobiography, Christianity - Other | 1/8
preface of apologia pro vita sewer 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 bill mcgilvery apologia pro vita sewer by john henry cardinal newman the following history of my religious opinions now that it is detached from the context in which it originally stood requires some preliminary explanation and that not only in order to introduce it generally to the reader but especially to make him understand how i came to write a whole book about myself and about my most private thoughts and feelings did i consult indeed my own impulses i should do my best simply to wipe out of my volume and consign to oblivion every trace of the circumstances to which it is to be ascribed but its original title of apologia is too exactly borne out by its matter and structure and these again are too suggestive of correlative circumstances and those circumstances are of too grave a character to allow of my indulging so natural a wish and therefore though in this new addition i have managed to omit nearly 100 pages of my original volume which i could safely consider to be of merely ephemeral importance i am even for that very reason obliged by way of making up for their absence to prefix to my narrative some account of the provocation out of which it arose it is now more than 20 years that a vague impression to my disadvantage has rested on the popular mind as if my conduct towards the anglican church while i was a member of it was inconsistent with christian simplicity and uprightness an impression of this kind was almost unavoidable under the circumstances of the case when a man who had written strongly against a cause and had collected a potty around him by virtue of such writings gradually faulted in his opposition to it unsaid his words threw his own friends into perplexity and their proceedings into confusion and ended by passing over to the side of those whom he had so vigorously denounced sensitive then as i have ever been of the imputations which have been so freely cast upon me i have never felt much impatience under them as considering them to be a portion of the penalty which i naturally and justly incurred by my change of religion even though they were to continue as long as i lived i left their removal to a future day when personal feelings would have died out and documents would see the light which were as yet buried in closets or scattered through the country this was my state of mind as it had been for many years when in the beginning of 1864 i unexpectedly found myself publicly put upon my defense and furnished with an opportunity of pleading my cause before the world and as it so happened with a fear prospect of an impartial hearing taken indeed by surprise as i was i had much reason to be anxious how i should be able to acquit myself in so serious a matter however i had long had a tacit understanding with myself that in the improbable event of a challenge being formally made to me by a person of name it would be my duty to meet it that opportunity had now occurred it never might occur again not to avail myself of it at once would be virtually to give up my cause accordingly i took advantage of it and as it turned out the circumstance that no time was allowed me for any studied statements has compensated in the equitable judgment of the public for such imperfections in composition as my want of leisure involved it was in the number of january 1864 of a magazine of wide circulation and in an article upon queen elizabeth that a popular writer took occasion formally to accuse me by name of thinking so lightly of the virtue of veracity as in set terms to have countenance and defended that neglect of it which he at the same time imputed to the catholic priesthood his words were these quote truth for its own sake had never been a virtue with the roman clergy father newman informs us that it need not and on the whole ought not to be that cunning is the weapon which heaven has given to the saints wherewith to withstand the brute male forth of the wicked world which marries and is given in marriage whether his notion be doctrinal correct or not it is at least historically so close quote these assertions going far beyond the popular prejudice entertained against me had no foundation whatever in fact i never had said i never had dreamed of saying that truth for its own sake need not and on the whole ought not to be a virtue with the roman clergy or that cunning is a weapon which heaven has given to the saints wherewith to withstand the wicked world to what work of mine then could the writer be referring in a correspondence which ensued upon the subject between him and myself he rested his charge against me on a sermon of mine preached before i was a catholic in the pulpit of my church at oxford and he gave me to understand that after having done as much of this he was not bound over and above such a general reference to my sermon to specify the passage of it in which the doctrine which he imputed to me was contained on my part i considered this not enough and i demanded of him to bring out his proof of his accusation in form and in detail or to confess he was unable to do so but he preserved in his refusal to cite any distinct passage from any writing of mine and though he consented to withdraw his charge he would not do so on the issue of its truth or falsehood but simply on the ground that i assure him that i had had no intention of incurring it this did not satisfy my sense of justice formally to charge me with committing a fault is one thing to allow that i did not intend to commit it is another it is no satisfaction to me if a man accuses me of this offense for him to profess that he does not accuse me of that but he thought differently not being able then to gain redress in the quarter where i had a right to ask it i appealed to the public i published the correspondence in the shape of a pamphlet with some remarks of my own at the end on the course which that correspondence had taken this pamphlet which appeared in the first week of february received a reply from my accuser towards the end of march in another pamphlet of 48 pages entitled what then does mr newman mean in which he professed to do that which i had called upon him to do that is he brought together a number of extracts from various works of mine catholic and anglican with the object of showing that if i was to be acquitted of the crime of teaching and practicing deceit and dishonesty according to his first supposition it was at the price of my being considered no longer responsible for my actions for as he expressed it i had a human reason once no doubt but i had gambled it away and i had worked my mind into that morbid state in which nonsense was the only food for which it hungered and that it could not be called a hasty or far-fetched or unfounded mistake when he concluded that i did not care for truth for its own sake or teach my disciples to regard it as a virtue and though too many prefer the charge of insincerity to that of incipients dr newman seemed not to be of that number he ended his pamphlet by returning to his original imputation against me which he had professed to abandon alluding by anticipation to my probable answer to what he was then publishing he professed his heartfelt embarrassment how he was to believe anything i might say in my exculpation in the plain and literal sense of the words i am henceforth he said in doubt and fear as much as an honest man can be concerning every word dr newman may write how can i tell that i shall not be the dupe of some cunning equivocation of one of these kinds laid down as permissible by the blessed saint alfonso da ligure and his pupils even when confirmed with an oath because then we do not deceive our neighbors but allow him to deceive himself how can i tell that i may not in this pamphlet have made an accusation of the truth of which dr newman is perfectly conscious and that as i a heretic protestant have no business to make it he has a full right to deny it even if i could have found it consistent with my duty to my own reputation to leave such an elaborate impeachment of my moral nature unanswered my duty to my brethren in the catholic priesthood would have forbidden such a course they were involved in the charges which this writer all along from the original passage in the magazine to the very last paragraph of the pamphlet had so confidently so tenaciously made in excapating myself it was plain i should be pursuing no mere personal quarrel i was offering my humble services to a sacred cause i was making my protest in behalf of a large body of men of higher character of honest and religious minds and of sensitive honor who had their place and their right in this world though they were ministers of the world unseen and who were insulted by my accuser as the above extracts from him sufficiently show not only in my person but directly and pointedly in their own accordingly i had once set about writing the apologia pro vita sewer of which the present volume is a new addition and it was a great reward to me to the controversy preceded such large numbers of my clerical brethren supporting me by their sympathy in the course which i was pursuing and as occasion offered bestowing on me the formal and public expression of their appropriation these testimonials in my behalf so important and so grateful to me are together with the letter sent to me with the same purpose from my bishop contained in the last pages of this volume this edition differs from the first form of the apologia as follows the original work consisted of seven parts which were published in series of consecutive thursdays between april 21 and june 2nd an appendix in answer to specific allegations urged against me in the pamphlet of accusation appeared on june 16th of these part one and part two as being for the most part directly controversial are omitted in this edition accepting certain passages in them which are subjoined to this preface as being necessary for the due explanation of the subsequent five parts these parentheses being three four five six seven of the apologia closed parenthesis are here numbered as chapters 1 2 3 4 5 respectively of the appendix about half has been admitted for the same reason as had led to the emission of parts one and two the rest of it is thrown into the shape of notes of a discursive character with two new ones on liberalism in the lives of the english saints of 1843 1844 and another new in part on ecclesiastical miracles in the body of the work the only addition of consequence is a letter which is found on page 228 a copy of which has recently come into my possession i should add that since writing the apologia last year i have seen for the first time mr oakley's notes on the tacterian movement this work remarkably corroborates the substance of my narrative while the kind terms in which he speaks of me personally call for my sincere gratitude may 2nd 1865 i make these extracts from the first edition of my apologia part 1 page 3 pages 20 to 25 and part 2 pages 29-31 and pages 41-51 in order to set before the reader the drift i had in writing my volume i cannot be sorry to have forced my accuser to bring out in fullness his charges against me it is far better that he should discharge his thoughts upon me in my lifetime than after i am dead under the circumstances i am happy in having the opportunity of reading the worst that can be said of me by a writer who has taken pains with his work and is well satisfied with it i account it again to be surveyed from without by one who hates the principles which are nearest to my heart has no personal knowledge of me to set right his misconceptions of my doctrine and who has some motives or other to be as severe with me as he can possibly be but i really feel sad for what i am obliged now to say i am in warfare with him but i wish him no ill it is very difficult to get up resentment towards persons whom one has never seen it is easy enough to be irritated with friends or foes vis-a-vis but though i am writing with all my heart against what he has said of me i am not conscious of personal unkindness towards himself i think it necessary to write as i am writing for my own sake and for the sake of the catholic priesthood but i wish to impute nothing worse of him than that he has been furiously carried away by his feelings yet what i shall say of the upshot of all this talk of my economies and equivocations and the like what is the precise work which it is directed to effect i am at war with him but there is such a thing as legitimate warfare why has its laws there are things which may fairly be done and things which may not be done i say it with shame and with stern sorrow he has attempted a great transgression he has attempted as i may call it to poison the wells i will quote him and explain what i mean he says quote i am henceforth and dealt in fear as much as any honest man can be concerning every word dr newman may write how can i tell that i shall not be the duke of some cunning equivocation of one of the three kinds laid down as permissible by blessed alfonso daligori and his pupils even when confirmed by an oath because then we do not deceive our neighbor but allow him to deceive himself it is admissible therefore to use words and sentences which have a double signification and leave the hapless hearer to take which of them he may choose what proof have i then that by mean it i never said it dr newman does not signify i did not say it but i did mean it close quote now these insinuations and questions shall be answered in their proper place here i will but say that i scorn and detest lying and quibbling in double tongue practice in slyness and cunning in smoothness in kent and pretense quite as much as any protestant hates me and i pray to be kept from the snare of them but all this is just now by the by my present subject is my accuser what i insist upon here is this unmanly attempt of his in his concluding pages to cut the ground from under my feet to poison by anticipation the public mind against me john henry newman and to infuse into the imaginations of my reader suspicion and mistrust of everything that i may say in reply to him this i call poisoning the wells i am henceforth in doubt and fear he says as much as any honest man can be concerning every word dr newman may write how can i tell that i shall not be the dupe of some cunning equivocation well i can only say that if his thought is to take effect i am but wasting my time in saying a word and answer to his calmness and this is precisely what he knows and intends to be its fruit i can hardly get myself to protest against a method of controversy so base and cruel at least in doing so i should be violating my self-respect and self-possession but most base and most cruel it is we all know how our imagination runs away with us how suddenly and at what a pace the saying caesar's wife should not be suspected is an instance of what i mean the habitual prejudice the humor of the moment is the turning point which leads us to read a defense in a good sense or a bad we interpret it by our antecedent impressions the very same sentiment according to our jealousy is or is not awake or our adversion stimulated our tokens of truth are of dissimilation and pretense there is a story of a sane person being by mistake shut up in the waters of a lunatic asylum and that when he pleads his cause to some strangers visiting the establishment the only remarks he elicits in answer was how naturally he talks you would think he was in his senses controversy should be decided by the reason is it legitimate warfare to appeal to the misgivings of the public mind and to its dislikings anyhow if my accuser enables us to practice upon my readers the more i succeed the less will be my success if i am natural he will tell them ours if i am convincing he will suggest that i am an able logician if i show warmth i am acting the indignant innocent if i am calm i am thereby detected as a smooth hypocrite if i clear up difficulties i am too plausible and perfect to be true the more triumphant are my statements the more certain will be my defeat so will it be if my accuser succeeds in his maneuver but i do not for an instance believe that he will whatever judgment my readers may eventually form of me from these pages i am confident that they will believe me in what i shall say in the course of them i have no misgivings at all that they will be ungenerous or harsh towards a man who has been so long before the eyes of the world who has so many to speak of him from personal knowledge whose natural impulse it has ever been to speak out who has ever spoken too much rather than too little who would have saved himself many as scrap if he had been wise enough to hold his tongue who has ever been feared to the doctrines and arguments of his opponents who has never slurred over facts and reasoning which told against himself who has never given his name or authority to proof which he thought unsound or to testimony which he did not think at least possible who has never shrunk from confessing a fault when he felt that he had committed one who has ever consulted for others more than for himself who has given up much that he loved and prized and could have retained but he loved honesty better than name and truth better than dear friends end of preface part one preface part two of the apology of provita sewer by john henry cardinal newman this librivox recording is in the public domain recording by bill mcgilvray preface part two what then shall be the special imputation against which i shall throw myself in these pages out of the thousand and one which my accuser directs upon me i mean to confine myself to one for there is only one about which i much care the charge of untruthfulness he may cast upon me as many other imputations as he pleases and they may stick on me as long as they can in the course of nature they will fall to the ground in their season and indeed i think the same of the charge of untruthfulness and selected from the rest not because it is more formidable but because it is more serious like the rest it may disfigure me for a time but it will not stain archbishop weightley used to say throw dirt enough and some will stick well will stick but not will stain i think he used to mean stain and i do not agree with him some dirt sticks longer than other dirt but no dirt is immortal according to the old saying prevalent veritas there are virtues indeed which the world is not fitted to judge of or to uphold such as faith hope and charity but it can judge about truthfulness it can judge about the natural virtues and truthfulness is one of them natural virtues may also become supernatural truthfulness is such but that does not withdraw it from the jurisdiction of mankind at large it may be more difficult in this or that particular case for men to take cognizance of it as it may be difficult for the court of queen's bench at westminster to try a case fairly which took place in hindustan but that is a question of capacity not of right mankind has the right to judge of truthfulness in a catholic as in the case of a protestant of an italian or of a chinese i have never doubted that in my hour in god's hour my avenger will appear and the world will acquit me of untruthfulness even though it be not while i live still more confident am i of such eventual acquittal seeing that my judges are my own countrymen i consider indeed englishmen the most suspicious and touchy of mankind i think them unreasonable and unjust in their seasons of excitement but i had rather be an englishman as in fact i am than belong to any other race under heaven they are as generous as they are hasty and burly and their repentance for their injustice is greater than their sin for 20 years and more i have borne an imputation of which i am at least as sensitive who am the object of it as they can be who are only the judges i have not set myself to remove it first because i never have had an opening to speak and next because i never saw in them the disposition to hear i have wished to appeal from philip drunk to philip sober when shall i pronounce him to be himself again if i may judge from the tone of the public press which represents the public voice i have great reason to take heart at this time i have been treated by contemporary critics in this controversy with great fairness and gentleness and i am grateful to them for it however the decision of this time and mode of my defense has been taken out of my hands and i am thankful that it has been so i am bound now as a duty to myself to the catholic cause into the catholic priesthood to give account of myself without any delay when i am so rudely and circumstantially charged with untruthfulness i accept the challenge i shall do my best to meet it and i shall be content when i have done so it is not my present accuser alone who entertains and has entertained so dishonorable an opinion of me and of my writings it is the impression of large classes of men the impression 20 years ago and the oppression now there has been a general feeling that i was for years where i had no right to be and that i was a romanist in protestant livery and service and that i was doing the work of a hostile church in the bosom of the english establishment and knew it or ought to have known it there was no need of arguing about particular passages in my writings when the fact was so patent as men thought it to be first it was certain and i could not myself deny it that i scouted the name protestant it was certain again that many of the doctrines which i professed were popularly and generally known as badges of the roman church as distinguished from the faith of the reformation next how could i have come by them evidently i had certain friends and advisers who did not appear there was some underground communication between stonyhurst or oscar in my rooms at oriole beyond a doubt i was advocating certain doctrines not by accident but on an understanding with ecclesiastics of the old religion then men went further and said that i had actually been received into that religion and with all had leave given me to profess myself a protestant still others went even further and gave it out to the world as a matter of fact of which they themselves had the proof in their hands that i was actually a jesuit and when the opinions which i advocated spread and younger men went further than i the feeling against me waxed stronger and took a wider range and now indignation arose at the navery of a conspiracy such as this and it became of course all the greater in consequence of its being the received belief of the public at large that craft and intrigue such as they fancy they beheld with their eyes were the very instruments to which the catholic church has in these last centuries been indebted for her maintenance and extension there was another circumstance still which increased the irritation and aversion felt by the large classes of whom i have been speaking against the preachers of doctrines so new to them and so unpalatable and that was that they developed them in so measured a way if they were inspired by roman theologians and this was taken for granted why did they not speak out at once why did they keep the world in such suspense and anxiety as to what was coming next and what was the upshot of the whole why this reticence and half-speaking and apparent indecision it was plain that the plan of operation had been carefully mapped out from the first and that these men were cautiously advancing towards its accomplishment as far as was safe at the moment that their aim and their hope was to carry off a large body with them of the young and the ignorant that they meant gradually to leaven the minds of the rising generation and to open the gates of that city of which they were sworn defenders to the enemy who lay an ambush outside it and when in spite of the many protestations of the party to the contrary there was at length an actual movement among their disciples and one went over to rome and then another the worst anticipations and the worst judgments which had been formed of them received their justification and lastly when men first had said of me you will see he will go he is only biding his time he is waiting the word of command from rome and when after all after my arguments and denunciations of former years at length i did leave the anglican church for the roman then they said to each other it is just as we said we knew it would be so this was a state of mind of masses of men 20 years ago who took no more than an external and common sense view of what was going on and partly the tradition partly the effect of that feeling remains to the present time certainly i consider that in my own case it is the great obstacle in the way of my being favorably heard as at present when i have to make my defense not only am i now a member of a most unenglish communion whose great aim is considered to be the extinction of protestantism in the protestant church and whose means of attack are properly supposed to be unscrupulous cunning and deceit but how come i originally to have any relations with the church of rome at all did i or my opinions dropped from the sky how come i in oxford in gremio universitatus to present myself to the eyes of men in that full-blown investiture of potpourri how could i dare how could i have the conscience with warnings with prophecies with accusations against me to preserve in a path which steadily advanced towards which ended in the religion of rome and how am i to be trusted when long ago i was trusted and was found wanting it is this which is the strength of the case of my accuser against me not the articles of impeachment which he has framed from my writings and which i shall easily crumble into dust but the bias of the court it is the state of the atmosphere it is the vibrations all around which will echo his bold assertions of my dishonesty it is that proposition against me which takes it for granted that when my reasoning is convincing it is only ingenious and that when my statements are unanswerable there is always something put out of sight or hidden in my sleeve it is that plausible but cruel conclusion to which men are wrapped to jump that when much is imputed much must be true and it is more likely that one should be to blame than that many should be mistaken in blaming him these are the real foes which i have to fight in the auxiliaries to whom my accuser makes his advances well i must break through this barrier of prejudice against me if i can and i think i shall be able to do so when first i read the pamphlet of accusation i almost despaired of meeting effectively such a heap of misrepresentations and such a vehemence of animosity what was the good of answering first one point and then another and going through the whole circle of its abuse when my answer to the first point would be forgotten as soon as i got to the second what was the use of bringing out half a hundred separate principles or views for refutation of the separate counts in the indictment when rejoinders of this sort would but confuse and torment the reader by their number in the diversity what hope was there of condensing into a pamphlet of readable length matter which ought freely to expend itself into a half a dozen volumes what means was there except the expenditure of impermissible pages to set right even one of that series of single passing hints to use my assailant's own language which as with his fingertip he had delivered against me all those separate charges had their force in being illustrations of one of the same great imputation he had already a positive idea to illuminate his whole matter and to stamp it with a force and to quicken it with an interpretation he called me a liar a simple abroad and intelligible to the english public a plausible arrangement but for me to answer in detail charge one by reason one in charge two by reason two in charge three by reason three and so on through the whole string both of accusations and replies each of which was to be independent of the rest this would be certainly labor lost as regards any effective result what i need was a corresponding antagonist unity in my defense and where was that to be found we see in the case of commentators on the prophecies of scripture an exemplification of the principle on which i am insisting namely how much more powerful even a false interpretation of the sacred text is then none at all how a certain key to the visions of the apocalypse for instance may cling to the mind i have found it so in the case of my own because the view which it opens on us is positive and objective in spite of the fullest demonstration that it really has no claim upon our reception the reader says what else can the prophecy mean just as my accuser asks what then does dr newman mean i reflected and i saw a way out of my perplexity yes i said to myself his very question is about my meaning what does dr newman mean it pointed in the very same direction as that into which my musings had turned me already he asked what i mean not about my words not about my arguments not about my actions as his ultimate point but about that living intelligence by which i write and argue and act he asked about my mind in its belief and its sentiments and he shall be answered not for his own sake but for my for the sake of the religion which i profess and of the priesthood in which i am unworthily included and of my friends and of my foes and of that general public which consists of neither one nor the other but of well wishes lovers of fair play skeptical cross questioners interested inquirers curious lookers on and simple strangers unconcerned yet not careless about the issue for the sake of all these he shall be answered my perplexity had not lasted half an hour i recognized what i had to do though i shrank from both the task and the exposure which it would entail i must i said give the true key to my whole life i must show what i am that it may be seen what i am not and that the phantom may be extinguished which givers inside of me i wish to be known as a living man and not as a scarecrow which is dressed up in my clothes false ideas may be refuted indeed by argument but by true ideas alone are they expelled i will vanquish not my accuser but my judges i will indeed answer his charges and criticisms on me one by one least anyone should say that they are unanswerable but such a work shall not be the scope nor the substance of my reply i will draw out as far as may be the history of my mind i will state the point of which i began in what external suggestion or accident each opinion had its rise how far and how they developed from within how they grew were modified were combined were in collusion with each other and were changed again how i conducted myself towards them and how and how far and for how long a time i thought i could hold them up consistently with the ecclesiastical engagements which i had made and with the position which i held i must show what is the very truth that the doctrines which i held and have held for so many years have been taught me speaking humanly partly by the suggestions of protestant friends partly by the teachings of the books and partly by the actions of my own mind and thus i shall account for that phenomenon which to so many seem so wonderful that i should have left my kindred and my father's house for a church from which once i turned away with dread so wonderful to them as if forsooth a religion which has flourished through so many ages among so many nations amid such varieties of social life in such contrary classes and conditions of men and after so many revolutions political and civil could not subdue the reason and overcome the heart without the aid of fraud in the process and the sophistries of the schools what i had proposed to myself in the course of half an hour i determined on at the end of 10 days however i have many difficulties in fulfilling my design how am i to say all that has been said in a reasonable compass and then as to the material of my narrative i have no autobiographical notes to consult no written explanations of particular treaties are of tracks which at the time gave offense hardly any minutes of definite transactions or conversations and few contemporary memoranda i fear of the feelings or motives under which from time to time acted i have an abundance of letters from friends with some copies or drafts of my answers to them but they are for the most part unsorted until this process has taken place there are even too numerous in various to be available at a moment for my purpose then as to the volumes which i have published they would in many ways serve me where i well up in them but though i took great pains in their composition i have thought little about them when they were once out of my hands and for the most part the last time i read them has been when i revised their last proof sheets under these circumstances my sketch will of course be incomplete i now for the first time contemplate my course as a whole it is a first essay but it will contain i trust no serious or substantial mistakes and so far will answer the purpose for which i write it i purpose to set nothing down in it as certain of which i have not a clear memory or some written memorial or the corroboration of some friend there are witnesses enough up and down the country to verify or correct or complete it in letters moreover of my own abundance unless they have been destroyed moreover i mean to be simply personal and historical i am not expounding catholic doctrine i am doing no more than explaining myself in my opinions and actions i wish as far as i am able simply to state facts whether they are ultimately determined to be for me or against me of course there will be room enough for contrarity of judgment among my readers as to the necessity or oppositeness or value or good taste or religious prudence of the details which i shall introduce i may be accused of laying stress on little things of being beside the mark of going into impertinent or ridiculous details of sounding my own praise of giving scandal but this is a case above all others in which i am bound to follow my own lights and to speak out my own heart it is not at all pleasant for me to be egotistical not to be criticized for being so it is not pleasant to reveal to high and low young and old what has gone on within me from my early years it is not pleasant to be giving to every shallow or flippant disputant the advantage over me of knowing my most private thoughts i might even say the intercourse between myself and my maker but i do not like to be called to my face a liar and a knave now should i be doing my duty to my faith or to my name if i were to suffer it i know i have done nothing to deserve such an insult and if i prove this as i hope to do i must not care for such incidental annoyances as are involved in the process end of preface chapter one part one of apologia provita sewer by john henry cardinal newman this librivox recording is in the public domain recording by bill mcgillivray history of my religious opinions to the year 1833 it may easily be conceived how great a trial it is for me to write the following history of myself but i must not shrink from the task the words secretum miyamihi keep ringing in my ears but as men draw towards their end they care less for disclosures nor is it the least part of my trial to anticipate that upon first reading what i have written my friends may consider much in it irrelevant to my purpose yet i cannot help thinking that view it as a whole it will affect what i propose to myself in giving it to the public i was brought up from a child to take great delight in reading the bible but i had no formed religious conviction till i was fifteen of course i had perfect knowledge of my catechism after i was grown up i put on paper my recollections of the thoughts and feelings on religious subjects which i had at the time that i was a child and a boy such as has remained on my mind with sufficient prominence to make me then consider them worth recording out of these written in the long vacation of 1820 and transcribed with additions in 1823 i select two which are at once the most definite among them and also have a bearing on my later convictions 1. i used to wish the arabian tales were true my imagination ran on unknown influences on magical powers in talismans i thought life might be a dream or i an angel and all this world of deception my fellow angels by a playful device concealing themselves from me and deceiving me was a semblance of a material world again reading in the spring of 1816 a sentence from dr watts remnants of time entitled the saints unknown to the world to the effect that there is nothing in their figure or countenance to distinguish them etc etc i suppose he spoke of angels who lived in the world as it were disguised two the other remark is this i was very superstitious and for some time previous to my conversion when i was 15 used constantly to cross myself on going into the dark of course i must have got this practice from some external source or other but i can make no sort of conjecture once and certainly no one had ever spoken to me on the subject of the catholic religion which i only knew by name the french master was an immigrant priest but he was simply made a but as french masters too commonly were in that day and spoke english very imperfectly there was a catholic family in the village old maiden ladies we used to think but i knew nothing about them i have of late years heard that there were one or two catholic boys in the school but either we were carefully kept from knowing this or the knowledge of it made simply no impression on our minds my brother will be a witness how free the school was from catholic ideas i had once been into warwick street chapel with my father who i believe wanted to hear some pieces of music all that i bore away from it was the recollection of a pulpit and a preacher and a boy swinging a censer when i was at littlemoor i was looking over old copy books of my school days and i found among them my first latin verse book and in the first page of it there was a device which almost took my breath away with surprise i have the book before me now and have just been showing it to others i have written in the first page in my school boy hand john h newman february 11 1811 verse book then follow my first verses between verse and book i have drawn the figure of a solid cross upright and next to it is what may indeed be meant for a necklace but what i cannot make out to be anything else than a set of beads suspended with a little cross attached at this time i was not quite 10 years old i supposed i got these ideas from some romance mrs radcliffs or miss porter's or from some religious picture but the strange thing is how among a thousand objects which meet a boy's eyes these in particular should so have fixed themselves in my mind that i made them thus practically my own i am certain there was nothing in the churches i attended or the prayer books i read to suggest them it must be recollected that anglican churches and prayer books were not decorated in those days as i believe they are now when i was 14 i read payne's tracks against the old testament and found pleasure in thinking of the objections which were contained in them also i read some of hume's essays and perhaps sat on miracles so at least i gave my father to understand but perhaps it was a brag also i recollect copying out some french verses perhaps fall tears in denial of the immortality of the soul and saying to myself something like how dreadful but how plausible when i was 15 in the autumn of 1816 a great change of thought took place in me i fell under the influence of a definite creed and received into my intellect impressions of dogma which through god's mercy has never been effaced or obscured above and beyond the conversions and sermons of the excellent man long dead the reverend walter meyers of pembroke college oxford who was the human means of this beginning of divine faith in me was the effect of the books which she put into my hands all the school of calvin one of the first books i read was the work of romaine's i neither recollect the title nor the contents except one doctrine which of course i do not include among these which i believe to have come from a divine source namely the doctrine of final perseverance i received it at once and believed that the inward conversion of which i was conscious and of which i still am more certain than that i have hands and feet would last into the next life and that i was elected to eternal glory i have no conscience that this belief had any tendency whatever to lead me to be careless about pleasing god i retained it till the age of 21 when it gradually faded away but i believe that it had some influence on my opinions in the direction of those childish imaginations which i have already mentioned namely in isolating me from the objects which surrounded me in confirming me in my mistrust of the reality of material phenomena and making me rest in the thought of two and two only absolute and luminous self-evident beings myself and my creator for while i considered myself predestined to salvation my mind did not dwell upon others as fancying them simply passed over not predestined to eternal death i only thought of the mercy to myself the detestable doctrine last mentioned is simply denied and absurd unless my memory strangely deceived me by the writer who made a deeper impression on my mind than any other and to whom humanly speaking i almost owe my soul thomas scott of aston sanford i so admired and delighted in his writings that when i was an undergraduate i thought of making a visit to his parsonage in order to see a man whom i so deeply revered i hardly think i could have given up the idea of this expedition even after i had taken my degree for the news of his death in 1821 came upon me as a disappointment as well as a sorrow i hung upon the lips of daniel wilson afterwards bishop of calcutta as in two sermons at saint john's chapel he gave the history of scott's life and death i had been possessed of his force of truth in essays from a boy his commentary i bought when i was an undergraduate what i suppose will strike any reader of scott's history and writings is his bold unworldliness and vigorous independence of mine he followed truth wherever it led him beginning with unitarianism and ending in a zealous faith in the holy trinity it was he who first planted deep in my mind that fundamental truth of religion with the assistance of scots essays in the admirable work of jones of nalan i made a collection of scripture texts in proof of the doctrine with remarks i think of my own upon them before i was 16 and a few months later i drew up a series of texts in support of each verse of the athanasian creed these papers i have still besides his unworldliness what i also admired in scott was his resolute opposition to anti-nominism in the minutely practical character of his writings they show him to be a true englishman and i deeply felt his influence and for years they used almost his proverbs what i consider to be the scope and issue of his doctrine holiness rather than peace and growth the only evidence of life calvinists make a sharp separation between the elect and the world there is much in this that is cognate or parallel to the catholic doctrine but they go on to say as i understand them very differently from catholicism that the converted and the unconverted can be discriminated by man that they justified our conscience of their state of justification and that the regenerate cannot fall away catholics on the other hand shade and soften the awful antagonism between good and evil which is one of their dogmas by holding that there are different degrees of justification that there is a great difference in point of gravity between sin and sin that there is the possibility and the danger of falling away and that there is no certain knowledge given to anyone that he is simply in the state of grace and much less that he is to persevere to the end of the calvinistic tenants the only one which took root in my mind was the fact of heaven and hell divine favor and divine wrath of the justified and of the unjustified the notion that the regenerate and the justified were one and the same and that the regenerate as such had the gift of perseverance remained with me not many years as i have said already this main catholic doctrine of the warfare between the city of god and the powers of darkness was also deeply impressed upon my mind by the work of a character very opposite of calvinism laws serious call from this time i have held with a full inward ascent and belief of the doctrine of eternal punishment as delivered by our lord himself in as true a sense as i hold that of eternal happiness though i have tried in various ways to make that truth less terrible to the imagination now i come to two other works which produced a deep impression on me in the same autumn of 1816 when i was 15 years old each contrary to each and planting in me the seeds of an intellectual inconsistency which disabled me for a long course of years i read joseph milner's church history and was nothing short of enamored of the long extracts from saint augustine saint ambrose and other fathers which i found there i read them as being the religion of the primitive christians but simultaneously with milner i read newton on the prophecies and in consequence became most firmly convinced that the pope was the antichrist predicted by daniel saint paul and saint john my imagination was stained by the effects of this doctrine up to the year 1843 it had been obliterated from my reason and judgment at an earlier date but the thought remained upon me as a sort of false conscience hence came that conflict of mine which so many have felt besides myself leading some men to make a compromise between two ideas so inconsistent with each other driving others to beat out the one idea or the other from their minds and ending in my own case after many years of intellectual unrest in the gradual decay and extinction of one of them i do not say in its violent death for why should i not have murdered it sooner if i murdered it at all i am obliged to mention though i do it with great reluctance another deep imagination which at this time the autumn of 1816 took possession of me there can be no mistake about the fact namely that it would be the will of god that i should lead a single life this anticipation which has held its ground almost continuously ever since with the break of a month now and a month then up to 1829 and after that date without any break at all was more or less connected in my mind with the notion that my calling in life would require such a sacrifice as celibacy involved as for instance missionary work among the heathens to which i had a great drawing for some years it also strengthened my feeling of separation from the visible world of which i have spoken above in 1822 i came under very different influences from those to which i had hitherto been subjected at that time mr waterley as he was then afterwards archbishop of dublin for the few months he remained in oxford which he was leaving for good showed great kindness to me he renewed it in 1825 when he became principal of alvin hall making me his vice principal and tutor of dr wadley i will speak presently for from 1822 to 1825 i saw most of the present provost of oriole dr hawkins at that time vicar of st mary's and when i took orders in 1824 and had accuracy in oxford then during the long vacations i was especially thrown into his company i can say with full heart that i love him and have never ceased to love him and i thus preface what otherwise might sound rude that in the course of many years in which we were together afterwards he provoked me very much from time to time though i am perfectly certain that i have provoked him a great deal more moreover in me such provocation was unbecoming both because he was the head of my college and because in the first years that i knew him he had been in many ways of great service to my mind he was the first who taught me to weigh my words and to be cautious in my statements he led me to that mode of limiting and clearing my senses in discussion and in controversy and of distinguishing between cognate ideas and of obviating mistakes by anticipation which to my surprise has been since considered even quite as friendly to me to savor of the polemics of rome he is a man of most exact mind himself and he used to snub me severely on reading as he was kind enough to do the first sermons that i wrote in other compositions which i was engaged upon then as to doctrine he was the means of great addition to my belief as i have noticed elsewhere he gave me the treaties on apostolical preaching by sumner afterwards archbishop of canterbury from which i was led to give up my remaining calvinism and to receive the doctrine of baptismal regeneration in many other ways too he was of use to me on subjects semi-religious and semi-scholastic it was dr hawkins too who taught me to anticipate that before many years were over there would be an attack made upon the books and the canon of scripture i was brought to the same belief by the conversation of mr blanco white who also led me to have freer views on the subject of inspiration than were usual in the church of england at the time there is one other principle which i gained from dr hawkins more directly bearing upon catholicism than any that i have mentioned and that is a doctrine of tradition when i was an undergraduate i heard him preach in the university pulpit his celebrated sermon on the subject and recollect how long it appeared to me though he was at that time a very striking preacher but when i read it and studied it as his gift it made a most serious impression upon me he does not go one step i think beyond the high anglican doctrine nahi does not reach it but he does his work thoroughly and his view was in him original and his subject was a novel one at the time he lays down a proposition self-evident as soon as stated to those who have all examined the structure of scripture namely that the sacred text was never intended to teach doctrine but only to prove it and that if we would learn doctrine we must have recourse to the formularies of the church for instance to the catechism and to the creeds he considers that after learning from them the doctrine of christianity the inquirer must verify them by scripture this view most true in the outline most fruitful in its consequence opened upon me a large field of thought dr wadley held it too one of its effects was to strike at the root of the principle on which the bible society was set up i belong to its oxford association it became a matter of time when i should withdraw my name from its subscription list though i did not do so at once it is with pleasure that i pay here a tribute to the memory of the reverend william james then fellow of oral who about the year 1823 taught me the doctrine of apostolical succession in the course of a walk i think around christchurch meadow i recollect being somewhat impatient of the subject at the time it was about this date i suppose that i read bishop butler's analogy the study of which has been to so many as it was to me an error in the religious opinions its inculcation of a visible church the oracle of truth in a pattern of sanctity of the duties of external religion and of the historical character of revelation are characteristics of this great work which strike the reader at once for myself if i may attempt to determine what i most gain from it it lay in two points which i shall have an opportunity of dwelling on in the sequel they are the underlying principles of a great portion of my teaching first the very idea of an analogy between the separate works of god leads to the conclusion that the system which is of less importance is economically or sacramentally connected with the more momentous system and of this conclusion the theory to which i was inclined as a boy namely the unreality of material phenomenon is an ultimate resolution at this time i did not make the distinction between matter itself and its phenomena which is so necessary and so obvious in discussing the subject secondly butler's doctrine that probability is the guide of life led me at least under the teachings to which a few years later i was introduced to the question of the logical cogency of faith on which i have written so much thus to butler i trace those two principles of my teaching which have led to a charge against me both of fancifulness and of skepticism and now as to dr wadely i owe him a great deal he was a man of generous and warm heart he was particularly loyal to his friends and to use the common phrase all his geese were swans while i was still awkward and timid in 1822 he took me by the hand and acted towards me the part of a gentle and encouraging instructor he emphatically opened my mind and taught me to think and to use my reason after being first noticed by him in 1822 i became very intimate with him in 1825 when i was his vice principal of alban hall i gave up that office in 1826 when i became tutor of my college and his hold upon me gradually relaxed he had done his work towards me or nearly so when he had taught me to see with my own eyes and to walk with my own feet not that i had not a good deal to learn from others still but i influenced them as well as they me and cooperated rather than merely concurred with them as to dr wadely his mind was too different from mine for us to remain long on one line i recollected how dissatisfied he was with an article of mine in the london review which blanco white good humidly only called platonic when i was diverging from him in opinion which he did not like i thought of dedicating my first book to him in words to the effect that he had not only taught me to think but to think for myself he left oxford in 1831 after that as far as i can recollect i never saw him but twice when he visited the university once in the street in 1834 once in a room in 1838 from the time that he left i have always felt a real affection for what i must call his memory for at least from the year 1834 he made himself dead to me he had practically indeed given me up from the time that he became archbishop in 1831 but in 1834 a correspondence took place between us which though conducted especially on his side in a friendly spirit was the expression of differences of opinion which acted as a final close to our intercourse my reason told me that it was impossible we could have got on together longer had he stayed in oxford yet i loved him too much to bid him farewell without pain after a few years had passed i began to believe that his influence on me in a higher respect than intellectual advance i will not say through his fault had not been satisfactory i believe that he had inserted sharp things in his later works about me they have never come in my way and i have not thought it necessary to seek out what would pain me so much in the reading what he did for me in point of religious opinion was first to teach me the existence of the church as a substantive body or corporation next to fixing me those anti-erastian views of church polity which were one of the most prominent features of the tractarian movement on this point and as far as i know on this point alone he and harold fruday intimately sympathize though fruday's development of opinion here was of a later date in the year 1826 in the course of a walk he said much to me about a work then just published called letters on the church by an episcopalian he said that it would make my blood boil it was certainly a most powerful composition one of our common friends told me that after reading it he could not keep still but went on walking up and down his room it was described at once to wadally i gave eager expression to the contrary opinion but i found the belief of oxford in the affirmative to be too strong for me rightly or wrongly i yield to the general voice and i have never heard then or since of any disclaimer of authorship on the part of dr wadley the main position of this able essay are these first the church and state should be independent of each other he speaks of the duty of protesting against the profanation of christ's kingdom by that double usurpation the interference of the church in temporals in the state in spirituals and secondly that the church may justly and by right retain its property though separate from the state the clergy he says though they ought not to be hired servants of the civil magistrate may justly retain their revenues in this state though it has no right of interference and spiritual concerns not only is justly entitled to support from the ministers of religion and from all other christians but would under the system i am recommending obtain it much more effectually the author of this work whoever he may be argues out of both these points with great force and ingenuity and with a thoroughgoing vehemence which perhaps we may refer to the circumstances that he wrote not in propria persona and is thereby answerable for every sentiment that he advanced but in the professed character of a scottish episcopalian his work had a gradual but a deep effect on my mind i am not aware of any other religious opinion which i owed to dr wadley in his special theological tenet i had no sympathy in the next year 1827 he told me he considered that i was aaronizing the case was this though at that time i had not read bishop bull's defensio nor the fathers i was just then very strong for that anti-nicene view of the trinitarian doctrine which some writers both catholic and non-catholic have accused of wearing a sort of aryan exterior this is the meaning of a passage in froday's remains in which he seems to accuse me of speaking against the assination creed i had contrasted the two aspects of the trinitarian doctrine which are respectively presented by the athanasian creed in the nicene my criticism were to the effect that some of the verses of the former creed were unnecessarily scientific this is a specimen of a certain disdain for antiquity which had been growing on me now for several years it showed itself in some flippant language against the fathers in the encyclopedia metropolitana about whom i knew little at the time except what i had learned as a boy from joseph milner in writing on the scripture miracles in 1825 1826 i had read middleton on the miracles of the early church and had imbibed a portion of his spirit the truth is i was beginning to prefer intellectual excellence tomorrow i was drifting in the direction of the liberalism of the day i was rudely awakened from my dream at the end of 1827 by two great blows illness and bereavement end of chapter one part one chapter one part two of apologia pro vita sewer by john henry cardinal newman this leap of arks recording is in the public domain recording by bill mcgillivray chapter 1 history of my religious opinions to the year 1833 part two in the beginning of 1829 came the formal break between dr wadely and me the fear of mr peel's reelection was the occasion of it i think in 1828 or 1827 i had voted in the minority when the petition to parliament against the catholic claims was brought into convocation i did so mainly on the view suggested to me in the letters of an episcopalian also i shrank from the bigoted two-bottle orthodox as they were individually called when then i took part against mr peale it wasn't an academical not at all an ecclesiastical or a political ground and this i professed at the time i considered that mr peel had taken the university by surprise that his friends had no right to call upon us to turn round on a sudden and to expose ourselves to the imputation of time serving and that a great university ought not to be bullied even by a great duke of wellington also by this time i was under the influence of kibel and fruday who in addition to the reason i have given disliked the duke's change of policy as dictated by liberalism wadally was considerably annoyed at me and he took a humorous revenge of which he had given me due notice beforehand as head of a house he had duties of hospitality to men of all parties he asked a set of the least intellectual men in oxford to dinner and men most fond of port he made me one of his party placed me between provost this and principal that and then asked me if i was proud of my friends however he had a serious meaning in his act he saw more clearly than i could do that i was separating from his own friends for good and all dr wadley attributed my leaving his clientele to a wish on my part to be the head of a party myself i do not think that this charge was deserved my habitual feeling then and since has been that it was not i who sought friends but friends who sought me never men had kinder or more indulgent friends than i have had but i expressed my own feelings as to the mode in which i gained them in this very year 1829 in the course of a copy of verses speaking of my blessings i said blessings of friends which to my door unasked and hoped have come they have come they have gone they came to my great joy they went to my great grief he who gave took away dr waterley's impression about me however admits of this explanation during the first years of my residence at oriole though proud of my college i was not quite at home there i was very much alone and i used often to take daily walks by myself i recollect once meeting dr copeland then provost with one of the fellows he turned round and with a kind courteousness which sat so well on him made me a bow and said nunchua minus solas quam solus at that time indeed from 1823 i had the intimacy of my dear and true friend dr and could not fail to admire and revere a soul so devoted to the cause of religion so full of good works so faithful in his affections but he left residence when i was getting to know him well as to dr wadley himself he was too much my superior to allow of my being at my ease with him and to no one in oxford at this time did i open my heart fully and familiarly but things changed in 1826 at that time i became one of the tutors of my college and this gave me position besides i had written one or two essays which had been well received i began to be known i preached my first university sermon next year i was one of the public examiners for the ba degree in 1828 i became vicar of saint mary's it was to me like the feeling of spring weather after winter and if i may so speak i came out of my shell i remained out of it till 1841. the two persons who knew me best at that time are still alive beneficed clergymen no longer my friends they could tell better than anyone else what i was in those years from this time my tongue was as it were loosened and i spoke spontaneously and without effort one of the two mr rickards said of me i have been told here is a fellow who when he is silent will never begin to speak and when he once begins to speak will never stop it was at this time that i began to have influence which steadily increased for a course of years i gained upon my pupils and was in particular intimate and affectionate with two of our probationer fellows robert isaac wilberforce afterwards archdeacon and richard hurl through day weightly then an acute man perhaps saw around me the signs of an incipient party of which i was not conscious myself and thus we discerned the first element of that movement afterwards called tractarian the true and primary author of it however as is usual with great motive powers was out of sight having carried off as a mere boy the highest honors of the university he had turned from the admiration which haunted his steps and sought for a better and holier satisfaction in pastoral work in the country need i say that i am speaking of john keebley the first time that i was in a room with him was an occasion of my election to a fellowship at oriole when i was sent for into the tower to shake hands with the provost and fellows how is that hour fixed in my memory after the changes of 42 years 42 this very day of which i write i have lately had a letter in my hand which i sent at the time to my great friend john william bolden with whom i passed almost exclusively my undergraduate years i had to hasten to the tower i say to him to receive the congratulations of all the fellows i bore it till keebly took my hand and then felt so abashed and unworthy of the honored on me that i seemed desirous of quite sinking into the ground his had been the first name which i had heard spoken of with reverence rather than admiration when i came to oxford when one day i was walking in high street with my dear earliest friend just mentioned with what eagerness did he cry out there's kibly and with what odd did i look at him then at another time i heard a master of arts of my college given account how he had just then had occasion to introduce himself on some business to keebley and how gentle courteous and unaffected kiwi had been so as almost to put him out of countenance then two it was reported truly or how a rising man of brilliant reputation the present dean of saint paul's dr millman admired and loved him adding that somehow he was strangely unlike anyone else however at the time when i was elected fellow of oriole he was not in residence and he was shy of me for years in consequence of the marks which i bore upon me of the evangelical and liberal schools at least so i have ever thought bureau four day brought us together about 1828 it is one of the sayings preserved in his remains do you know the story of the murderer who had done one good thing in his life well if i was ever asked what good deed i had ever done i should say that i had brought kiwi and newman to understand each other the christian year made its appearance in 1827 it is not necessarily and scarcely becoming to praise the book which has already become one of the classics of the language when the general tone of religious literature was so nervous and impotent as it was at that time keebley struck an original note and woke up in the hearts of thousands a new music the music of a school long unknown in england now can i pretend to analyze in my own instance the effect of religious teaching so deep so pure so beautiful i have never till now tried to do so yet i think i am not wrong in saying that the two main intellectual truths which it brought home to me were the same two which i had learned from butler though recast in the creative mind of my new master the first of those was what may be called in a large sense of the word the sacramental system that is the doctrine that material phenomenon are both the types and instruments of real things unseen a doctrine which embraces in its fullness not only what anglicans as well as catholics believe about sacraments properly so called but also the article of the communion of saints and likewise the mysteries of the faith the connection of this philosophy of religion with what is sometimes called berkeley-ism has been mentioned above i knew little of berkeley at this time except by name nor have i ever studied him on the second intellectual principle which i gained from mr kieble i could say a great deal if this were the place for it it runs through very much that i have written and has gained for me many hard names butler teaches us that probability is the guide of life the danger of this doctrine in the case of many minds is its tendency to destroy in them absolute certainty leading them to consider every conclusion as doubtful in resolving truth into an opinion which it is safe indeed to obey or to profess but not possible to embrace with full internal ascent if this were to be allowed then they celebrated saying o god if there be a god save my soul if i have a soul would be the highest measure of devotion but who can really pray to a being about whose existence he is seriously in doubt i consider that mr kieble met this difficulty by ascribing the firmness of ascent which we give to religious doctrine not to the probabilities which introduce it but to the living power of faith and love which accepted it in matters of religion he seemed to say it is not merely probability which makes us intellectually certain but probability as it is put to account by faith and love it is faith and love which give to probability a force which it has not in itself faith and love are directed towards an object in the vision of that object they live it is that object received in faith and love which renders it reasonable to take probability as sufficient for internal conviction thus the argument from probability in the matter of religion became an argument from personality which in fact is one form of the argument from authority in illustration mr kibler used to quote the words of the psalm i will guide thee with mine eye but ye not like to horse and mule which have no understanding whose mouth must be held with bit and bridle least they fall upon thee this is the very difference he used to say between slaves and friends or children friends do not ask for literal commands but from their knowledge of the speaker they understand his half words and from love of him they anticipate his wishes hence it is that in the poem of saint bartholomew's day he speaks of the eye of god word and in the note from mr miller of worcester college who remarks in his bampton lectures on the special power of scripture as having this eye like that of a portrait uniformly fixed upon us turn where we will the view thus suggested by mr kiblee is brought forward in one of the earliest of the tracks for our times in number eight i say the gospel is a law of liberty we are treated as sons not as servants not subjected to a code of formal commandments but addressed as those who love god and wish to please him i did not at all dispute this view of the matter for i made use of it myself but i was dissatisfied because it did not go to the root of the difficulty it was beautiful and religious but it did not even profess to be logical and accordingly i tried to complete it by considerations of my own which are to be found in my university sermons essays on ecclesiastical miracles in essays on development of doctrine my argument is an outline as follows that that absolute certitude which we are able to possess whether as to the truth of natural theology or as to the fact of a revelation was a result of an assemblage of concurring and converging probabilities and that both according to the constitution of the human mind and the will of its maker that certitude was a habit of mine that certainty was equality of propositions that probability which did not reach to logical certainty might suffice for a mental certitude that the certitude thus brought about might equal in measure and strength the certitude which was created by the strictest scientific demonstration and that to possess such certitude might in given cases and to given individuals be a plain duty though not to others in other circumstances moreover that is there were probabilities which sufficed for certitude so there were other probabilities which were legitimately adapted to create opinion that it might be quite as much a matter of duty in given cases and to given persons to have about a fact an opinion of a definite strength and consistency as in the case of greater or of more numerous probabilities it was a duty to have a certitude that accordingly we were bound to be more or less sure on a sort of as it were graduated scale of ascent namely according as the probability attaching to a professed fact were brought home to us and as the case might be to entertain about it a pious belief or a pious opinion or a religious conjecture or at least a tolerance of such belief or opinion or conjecture in others that on the other hand as it was a duty to have a belief of more or less strong texture in given cases so in other cases it was a duty not to believe not to opine not to conjecture not even to tolerate the notion that a professed fact was true inasmuch as it would be credulity or superstition or some other moral fault to do so this was the region of private judgment in religion that is of a private judgment not formed arbitrarily and according to one's fancy or liking but conscientiously and under a sense of duty considerations such as these throw a new light on the subject of miracles and they seem to have led me to reconsider the view which i had taken of them in my essay in 1825 1826 i do not know what was the date of this change in me nor of the train of ideas on which it was founded that there had been already great miracles as those of scriptures as the resurrection was a fact establishing the principle that the laws of nature had sometimes been suspended by their divine author and since what had happened once might happen again a certain probability at least no kind of improbability was attached to the idea taken in itself of miraculous intervention in later times and miraculous accounts were to be regarded in connection with the very similitude scope instrument character testimony and circumstances with which they presented themselves to us and according to the final results of those various considerations it was our duty to be sure or to believe or to opine or to surmise or to tolerate or to reject or to denounce the main difference between my essay on miracles in 1826 in my essay in 1842 is this that in 1826 i considered that miracles were sharply divided into two classes those which were to be received and those which were to be rejected whereas in 1842 i saw that they were to be regarded according to their greater or lesser probability which was in some cases sufficient to create certitude about them in other cases only belief or opinion moreover the argument from analogy on which this view of the question was founded suggested to me something besides in recommendation of the ecclesiastical miracles it fastened itself upon the theory of church history which i had learned as a boy from joseph milner it is milner's doctrine that upon the visible church come down from above at certain intervals large and temporary effusions of divine grace this is the leading idea of his work he begins by speaking of the day of pentecost as marking the first of those effusions of the spirit of god which from age to age have visited the earth since the coming of christ volume i page 3. in a note he adds that in the term effusion there is not here included the idea of the miraculous or extraordinary operations of the spirit of god but still it was natural for me admitting milner's general theory and applying it to the principle of analogy not to stop short at his abrupt ipse dixon but boldly to pass forward to the conclusion on other grounds plausible that as miracles accompany the first diffusion of grace so they might accompany the latter it is surely a natural and on the whole a true anticipation though of course there are exceptions in particular cases that gifts and graces go together now according to the ancient catholic doctrine the gift of miracles was viewed as the attendant and shadow of transcendent sanctity and moreover since such sanctity was not of every day's occurrence nay further since one period of church history differed widely from another and as joseph milner would say there have been generations or centuries of degeneracy or disorder and times of revival and since one region might be in the midday of religious fervor and another in twilight or gloom there was no force in the popular argument that because we did not see miracles with our own eyes miracles had not happened in former times or were not now at this very time taking place in distant places but i must not dwell longer on a subject to which in a few words it is impossible to do justice harel fruday was the pupil of kibbly's formed by him and in turn reacting upon him i knew him first in 1826 and was in the closest and most affectionate friendship with him from about 1829 till his death in 1836 he was a man of the highest gifts so truly many cited that it would be presumptuous in me to attempt to describe him except under those aspects in which he came before me now have i here to speak of the gentleness intendedness of nature the playfulness the free elastic forces and graceful versatility of mind and the patient winning considerateness in discussion which endeared him to those to whom he opened his heart for i am all along engaged upon matters of belief and opinion and am introducing others into my narrative not for their own sake or because i love and have loved them so much as because in so far as they have influenced my theological views in this respect then i speak of harel fruday in his intellectual aspect as a man of high genius braveful and overflowing with ideas and views in him original which were too many and strong even for his bodily strength and which crowded and jostled against each other in their effort after distinct shape and expression and he had an intellect as critical and logical as it was speculative and bold dying prematurely as he did and in the conflict and transition state of opinion his religious views never reached their ultimate conclusion by the very reason of their multitude and their depth his opinions arrested and influenced me even when they did not gain my assent he professed openly his admiration of the church of rome and his hatred of the reformers he delighted in the notion of a hierarchical system of sacred power and of full ecclesiastical liberty he felt scorn of the maxim the bible and the bible only is the religion of protestants and he gloried in accepting tradition as a main instrument of religious teaching he had a high severe idea of the intrinsic excellence of virginity and he considered the blessed virgin its great pattern he delighted in thinking of the saints he had a vivid appreciation of the idea of sanctity its possibilities and its heights and he was more than inclined to believe a large amount of miraculous interference as occurring in the early and middle ages he embraced the principle of penance and mortification he had a deep devotion to the real presence in which he had a firm faith he was powerfully drawn to the medieval church but not to the primitive he had a keen insight into abstract truths but he was an englishman to the backbone in his severe adherence to the real and the concrete he had a most classical taste and a genius for philosophy and art and he was fond of a historical inquiry in the politics of religion he had no turn for theology as such he set no sufficient value on the writings of the fathers on the detail or development of doctrine on the definite traditions of the church viewed in their matter on the teachings of the ecumenical councils are on the controversies out of which they arose he took an eager courageous view of things on the whole i should say that his power of entering into the minds of others did not equal his other gifts he could not believe for instance that i really held the roman church to be anti-christian on many points he would not believe but that i agreed with him when i did not he seemed not to understand my difficulties his were of a different kind the contrarity between theory and fact he was a high tory of the cavalier stamp and was disgusted with the tourism of the opponents of the reform bill he was smitten with the love of the theocratic church he went abroad and was shocked by the degeneracy which he thought he saw in the catholics of italy it is difficult to enumerate the precise additions to my theological creed which i derive from a friend to whom i owe so much he taught me to look with admiration towards the church of rome and in the same degree to dislike the reformation he fixed deep in me the idea of devotion to the blessed virgin and he led me gradually to believe in the real presence end of chapter 1 part 2.

you uh Matt Man Mark Mark good to see you American Top 40 yeah we'll make the official announcement at 6:35 uh but yeah the first hint is that the airport I'm going to work at is let's say no ah see Justin's smart yeah I know I was like Ah that's a really bad hint Justin it does when you go into Missouri it it no longer goes east and west dang it all right so forget that hint for that's a horrible it's a horrible hint Carolina guesses Santa Fe Colin guesses Houston David guess is Denver uh yeah the four options again are Houston Texas Provo Utah Santa Fe New Mexico and St Louis Missouri so the next hint I'll give is what's up DB yeah okay that's a better one uh to draw a line it is let's see the airport that I'm going at um you have Houston Hobby Airport you have Provo Provo Airport you have Santa Fe Airport and you have St Louis Lambert Andy link says it's not in the state of Texas Tommy says we lost we uh so we it's not STL all right NorCal jet Setter says Santa Fe is my guess jevin what's up I'll give you another hint uh the airport that I'm going to work at has runways that are over 8,000 ft that's your next hint that's a better h hint so one of the airports that I listed does not I let me make sure all right and if you can see the reflection on my glasses you'll be super smart but that's the next hint the next hint is this airport has runways of over 8,000 ft what's up Jackson Carolina says Santa Fe NorCal says saf confirmed the winds in this city Prevail in which direction oh I don't know on that John says Houston Tommy says Provo has one Runway over 8,400 feet that's correct this airport does not or this airport that I'm working at has a Runway of over 8,000 ft David Cox says Provo Wendy says Utah what's up Molly hello hello I know Jackson the anticipation again we'll give the announcement at 6:35 so that everybody who's tuning in uh will know so that'll be the that'll be the good hint the hint is uh the airport has A Runway of over 8,000 ft the airport that I'm working at has a Runway of 8,000 ft Josh says OKC and uh dbm not going to release the altitude um just yet uh Tommy says it's not Houston unrestricted climb ask how many runways are there uh there are this airport has at least two runways there's another hint I'll give Lake County Airport in Leadville that would be actually pretty cool but uh I don't think they would pay very much jevin unrestricted climb says Spokane Carolina says Santa Fe good guesses we all know why it's Provo [Laughter] because found inflators ice cream jein says Santa Anna no it's Austin I have 12 and 9,000 foot runways yeah altitude would definitely give it away for sure hey Colin again we'll be announcing at 6:35 and then I'll be glad to take any and all questions for you uh let me do one thing right here so I can tell you a little more about the position that I have so that you can be better informed so I'm pulling up the job description right now of what this position entails if my uh internet will slowly pull it up there we go all right so this is for an airport op operations officer position uh let me read you a few while we're waiting for the time uh and uh Houston Tommy says Houston doesn't have uh Runway over 8,000 feet unrestricted clim says Denver Pit by the way you saying altitude gives it away as a giveaway uh jevin says Fort Lauderdale fed says he's going to New Mexico Jackson goes Provo altitude Denver West Palm Beach jevin Furnace Creek airport Death Valley you know Josh I was actually looking at Mojave air and Spaceport for an open job and that would be a fun career because it deals with you know NASA and experimental aircraft and it has super super long runways like 14,000 ft um lady cat says isn't it in the desert the answer is maybe Mike Walker says Denver Denver has 10 mile long runways Wendy not east of the Mississippi DFW says that all right so in the meantime let me uh give you a few of the I'm going to skip over I can't see your chat right now because I'm looking at the job function so I'll tell you a couple of the jobs of the airport operations officer position by the way bring your questions so I'll be glad to answer them as I can uh so some of the essential functions of the airport operations officer uh position at the airport are including assist with airport security and identification functions including badging training and testing airport uh airport employees conducts inspections of the Airfield terminal facilities and other airport facilities and property coordinates with the airport maintenance department of on Airfield repairs enforces compliance with the airport rules and regulations and the airport security program issues and files notice to air missions to report remember nms we talked about nms on Friday to report all conditions that impact the safe operations in aircraft to ensure that they are promptly communicated to the FAA and air carriers monitors the airport security access control system uh monitors intrusion fire alarms responsible for maintaining current knowledge of Santa Fe Airport rules provides input and feedback on policy procedures practices governing the airport uh under direct supervision implements Wildlife Control procedures and ensures compliance with the airport Wildlife Hazard management plan uh and under direct supervision implements snow and ice procedures and ensures compliance with the airports snow and ice control plan for the airport so those are just a few of the responsibilities again we'll make the big announcement at 6:35 wel come in everybody Chev says Santa Barbara that's right Josh you were an STL uh Tommy that's a good question because the largest airplane that comes in would have to be a let's see well I'm not going to give that away it's pvu NorCal jet sitter five early snow and ice snow and ice oh you do yeah I did read it out loud David well now it's too late yeah I I blew it on that one see I'm tired today I blew it on that one a oh well we'll wait we'll wait a couple more minutes since I already blew it yeah I was doing fine I was doing fine David until I went down to the uh bullet point that I won't repeat if nobody if somebody wasn't paying attention and I was like and I I blew right bl by it I didn't even think about it twice so John great to see you D Beast yeah thank you ajd it's pretty nerve-wracking it's a it's a different for those you know me for my flight dispatching days and flight dispatching exploits uh this is a new challenge so it'll be definitely interesting I do miss flight dispatching uh and would love to go back but this is a new challenge and and I'm excited for it so new opportunity thank you Molly two more minutes and I'll give you I'll give it away thanks Scott thanks for everybody for tuning in and I'll answer any questions afterwards so I guess that's pretty close thank you Michael appreciate it appreciate it many thanks we'll talk about by the way wherever it is I'm going to talk a little bit about uh what this means for future streams and uh so those who are informed will know thanks Vincent appreciate it all right one more minute thank you NorCal appreciate that honestly I think being a flight dispatcher helped getting hired to be honest thank you Carolyn yeah David thank you I hope wherever it is I love it um yeah all right so it's 6:35 on the dot welcome into Pips plane spotting live uh unveiling Edition I kept the secret if you paid attention I let it squeak like four minutes before it was supposed to I was supposed to keep it secret uh again uh and John yeah Provo is a good guess but uh Vincent Las Vegas would be awesome but as I said the drum roll the new location that I will be working is for those who didn't hear me give it away four minutes ago Santa Fe New Mexico what's up Robin Infidel fire bin so yeah going to Santa Fe New Mexico I did a really good job until the last four minutes of not giving it away so Santa Fe New Mexico Carolina nobody was listening on at at that point I know I would love to stay in Texas I would love to stay in Texas I interviewed with Houston but I haven't heard back from them and Santa Fe offered the job and I was like okay so yeah PL plane and train spotting true uh Josh in Santa Fe most people don't know this but uh they actually have a commuter rail system that goes from Albuquerque up to Santa Fe New Mexico so thank you Ramona a eation uh right now DB I am in uh Dallas Texas Frisco Texas at my parents house so yeah that's right Infidel that's right David you got the eagle ear you got the eagle ear oh so Jackson answers hey thank you ajd Santa Fe yeah great artwork that is true so first question that people want to ask that I didn't want to give away that Tommy asked what's the largest aircraft that flies in there I think Jackson asked it uh right now we have just the e175s that fly in there so it's a small Regional Airport uh Santa Fe is the state capital of New Mexico it's about 60 miles though from Albuquerque so for a long time people who lived in Santa Fe or Los Alamos uh would drive to Albuquerque to fly but now we're really starting they they're expanding the terminal right now and uh they are going to get some jet Bridges so they're hoping obviously to expand flights they're supposed to start getting service to Houston Texas in about a what is it a month two months I think around may maybe uh they're supposed to get Houston so Santa Fe only has direct flights to Phoenix DFW Denver and Houston so it's a small airport to start off with which is kind of cool but kind of Downer so you could look it at a positive or A negative uh so but it's cool that you're involved uh and everything and uh have an opportunity to get to know everybody so oh nice DB awesome green chili all day long yep uh I will be moving March 4th March 4th is the first day in Eminem Mark thanks for the congratul ations so yeah I won't be too far from Las Vegas I looked on the map Josh and I'm about 420 miles from Denver Phoenix and uh El Paso is under 420 miles so yeah and then there's Albuquerque which is 60 miles away I have been to Albuquerque once and it has enough traffic I think their busiest hour has nine arrivals so again Carolina Aviation would never broadcast there but I might do a broadcast at Albuquerque yeah dude toos is uh not too far away lot of ske in toos that's right DB lot of VIPs flying in yep yep that's true yeah ajd uh Sky Harbor uh in fact so yeah so I'm scheduled to start March 4th which if anybody knows the calendar uh Noah hey just great to see you no you know Noah I'm that's a great question so uh let me answer a couple of questions real quick March 4th is the start date so that's eight days away so I'm getting ready here and got everything to uh do thanks Justin Allen maybe we can get direct service to Salt Lake City soon from Delta CU right now they only fly to Albuquerque thank you very much Gary appreciate it next Monday that's right Noah so Santa Fe New Mexico is the stop the next location uh no I'll be driving there Jackson it's about a day's drive from Dallas to Santa Fe a full day drive so uh I'll be driving through probably Amarillo whoa ajd thanks so much for joining premium economy full coveted Suite of emojis and supporting the channel uh so yeah uh Santa Fe is where we're at that's where I'm headed good guesses everybody I will do my best Justin to make it happen so it's true Josh I will be springing forward so it's almost like the same time that's right but it is uh mountain mountain daylight time so an hour behind uh Hollman Air Force Base Robert I could head down to Tucson too and do Monon or head down to Kirtland Air Force Base which Albuquerque is a joint civil and Military a Air Force Base I'd love to get more flights to the East and Midwest there you go Infidel love it well thanks John I hope so I appreciate it I'm super nervous I am super nervous so good question so yeah March 4th next start date we have direct flights in Santa Fe we also have a lot of general aviation traffic a lot of corporate Jets a lot of celebrities because they the mountains are right there and in case you didn't know yeah I didn't want to give away the altitude because if I had said the altitude that would have totally given it away uh Santa Fe altitude I believe is a little over 7,000 ft let me see here uh um close to 7,000 ft yeah it says 6,300 but I want to say the airport's up higher so yeah it's fairly high up there uh so it's always fun to fly out of Santa Fe uh let me look at the charts too yeah 60 thought it was 7,000 ft it's 6348 so that's still pretty high out there yep Amarillo and Colorado Springs thank you Josh uh thank you Noah I'll definitely have to come visit Phoenix a lot to do plain spotting uh won't be driving through uh Colorado per se I'll be going through the panle of Texas it's all good thanks thank you Colin thank you for your support thank you all of you in premium economy ultimate economy and first class Baby clubs thank you so much so uh we'll be on the air here for a little bit longer talking Aviation and uh I definitely I asked you know for those who tuned in into the stream last uh yesterday at DFW I definitely ask uh give me a couple of weeks to um get settled in I might be able to do streaming sooner but uh I'm definitely going to start working for now I will let you know Noah uh I Tommy that's a great idea I am that's already been in my head actually of doing a day in the life live stream uh that is a great idea and do that and that's right ajd Kingman the the Boneyard another great suggestion over in Kingman uh I love it Kingman has a Boneyard aircraft Boneyard so that's a great suggestion ajd yeah it's true Vincent I'd like to I mean honestly when I applied so St Lis was definitely high on my list because of the F-18 and it was a fairly busy airport and not too far from my sister in Chicago but Santa Fe is pretty great and when I drove through there I actually had the opportunity to drive through there because I always like to get a a of the surroundings um and I felt pretty comfortable there so uh if that is any barometer hopefully things should go well so uh lady cat uh Matt man I'll answer that about my parents uh lady cat the uh we're working on the apartment situation for most people who don't know Santa Fe is super expensive that's why I'm getting paid a fair amount of money uh but the average rent for a one-bedroom is probably $16 $1,700 a month in Santa Fe I would say uh so my parents they want me out of the house so Matt man I could have been like gotten a general manager job at a Portillos and they would have been thrilled as long as it got me out of the house so uh so yeah I'm looking for apartments right now uh considering maybe even staying in a hotel for a little bit uh till I get settled in because Apartments tend to be fairly expensive and um yep yeah yes yeah I know I know lady cat it's pretty yeah6 $1,700 a month no joke so I would probably be getting I'd probably be getting $3 less an hour it's an hourly job that qualifies for overtime it's not salaried so you're hourly uh which is good uh which is nice and uh yeah there is a Portillos right off the toway yep ajd yes Roger what's happening DB yeah Santa Fe the state capital Albuquerque's got a lot of companies people don't realize there's actually a train it's called The Rail Runner Express that goes from Santa Fe to Albuquerque uh and so I could technically live in Albuquerque which is about 50 60 miles away and commute in so I'm debating that too because Albuquerque is way cheaper but I'm not a huge fan of driving 50 60 miles or catching a train so it's either or yeah yep yep so Albuquerque is way cheaper so that's something and hey Roger good to see you hey Sue yeah John that's a good suggestion uh fed no In-N-Out no uh wait that's a great question I don't know what I do know is they do have a mall and they have a state capital and um a lot of people fly in there um along with Talos which I think is about 90 how far is it DB how far is T from uh Santa Fe I don't know yeah yep that's right so this is Pip's Ann job announcement and I'm going to Santa New Mexico Infidel as an air operations officer so I'll be going there as an air operations officer they do have a monthly pass J Josh for the commer Rail and um if if I wanted to spot in Albuquerque I could take the train down and they do have a bus but that's kind of a a long Hassle and I don't have my truck to stand on top of so something to consider yep yeah Albuquerque is definitely cheaper but when you cancel in the gas and everything it's only a little bit cheaper and for that I I would almost stay in Santa Fe so I've looked at a couple of apartments and um yeah oh there there is no in out in New Mexico I didn't know that Infidel Blake sounds familiar oh yeah I'm excited here's what I am excited I'm GNA film uh yeah I'm G to watch every episode this week of Breaking Bad watch them all so I get familiar with New Mexico and uh moving this weekend tal is 70 miles from Santa Fe okay so tal has an airport too but a lot of people will fly into Santa Fe and celebrities actually have a lot of homes and somebody said it earlier I think ajd the art scene is massive massive massive massive in Santa Fe when I drove around in like a square mile in downtown Santa Fe I counted no less than 25 art galleries so what's up sock how's it going great to see you hello hello so yeah keep those questions coming bye everyone hey IB great to see you I could visit the Spaceport it's yeah yep so March 4th is a start date I'll probably drive there Friday or Saturday this week so I'll do maybe a couple of streams So speaking of that I wanted to turn my attention to the streams uh yasu yep oh nice nice Josh yeah it's really pretty City all right Jackson thanks for stopping by appreciate it ah nice ajd Michael Walker thanks so much for staying up being supporting the channel you guys can go to rest if you want or stay up till understand Michael get better stay well you're starting to get pretty healthy so it's awesome uh but I further wanted to mention the fact that streaming wise that's right so what does that mean for streaming so for the first couple of weeks I'm probably going to be focused on studying and learning everything for the stream and um it is actually Vincent with the airport the city government currently runs the airport so I would be employed by the city of Santa Fe great question so there's that um get some rest Michael Walker thank you again for the support and for streaming yeah so there's not a ton of action in Santa Fe I've thought about doing like a live or a A in the day uh day in the life of uh if my boss let me I'd have to go through a lot of permission and channels to do that but that's something I definitely want to propose to my boss is doing a day in the life of an airport operations officer video and maybe have you guys follow me along uh and uh the next thing is as far as streams I I might go to Albuquerque Albuquerque has some traffic obviously they have Southwest Sun Country Jet Blue the Legacy carriers of course but the Southwest is their biggest Airline at Albuquerque so yeah more pip School sessions the fact that me moving uh Josh will not change uh the Pips institutive plane spawning yeah freed the airport does have military action Kirtland Air Force Base is in Albuquerque uh but they do a lot of flying up here in Santa Fe or I'm in Texas but yeah I will let you know ajd I will for sure uh so there's that and then I'm GNA have to honestly uh save some money to fly everywhere so Phoenix or drive so to spot I'll probably have to go to Albuquerque Phoenix and Denver would probably be the three that I would rotate through first maybe to Tucson fly to Phoenix and then drive down to Tucson or drive um so I've been looking at flight prices to fly I do actually have one flight booked right now tentatively uh I booked it with points so I can get it refunded at any time through Southwest to Denver so I believe it's like the it's like April 6th uh I could do a day trip to Denver fairly easy but uh yeah uh Infidel I definitely will let them know uh about you and uh Robert great question what kind of benefits do they offer well New Mexico this pretty it's pretty crazy they offer the state of New Mexico offers like a 14% match or 14% contribution to the public sect sector retirement fund and there's a pension so that's one of the biggest things that is attractive the health care the city pays for 75% of the premium and uh yeah I agree Roger and I AG agree ladyc cat yeah Sue I'll make sure and get settled it could I agree with you uh AJ Santa Fe would be perfect doing streams there Oppenheimer land that's right uh so Robert uh good good retirement program good health benefits City pays 25 or 75% of the premium uh that sounds awesome Noah I'll make sure to let you know when I'm in Tucson I kind of have a crush on a girl in Tucson so we'll see uh then what are the other good benefits well obviously federal holidays all the federal holidays are uh time and a half overtime pay time and a half uh they also pay you to be on standby for like 2 or three hours and uh so uh couple of cool things yeah freed definitely some sweet benefits being a uh a Public Employee uh Josh very little and I hope that's something that we can change maybe I can be because I don't think they have a public information officer for the airport uh but I'm hoping maybe I can do that on the side is do like a social media presence for the airport and uh yeah Vincent I'm I'm H I was happy to hear it too uh Robert Denver is actually very spotter friendly uh you just it's tough you have to actually fly in and do spotting but yeah I don't know about the mac daddy yeah for sure no I've always wanted to go to Tucson so Santa Fe New Mexico is where I'll be employed again as an airport operations officer uh that it sure is a good opportunity lady cat yes Sue steady income stream that's important I want to do this full-time but in the meantime this will be nice and getting benefits for sure so I'll definitely be working on streaming and I hope I don't lose you guys and that's the other thing if listen if I I totally understand if you don't you know some people have been supporting the channel and and really phenomenal as premium ultimate economy members are first class uh but uh if you want to you know stick with me I'd be forever grateful but I won't be offended if you like you take a month or two off from the uh pit Pal's membership club I'm not offended so once I get into town I'll have a better lay of the land so yep Roger I agree nothing beats Founders Plaza there's no question no question and uh oh and you know what I could go down to Roswell cuz there's a airport graveyard down in Roswell too A lot of people don't know that but that there's a there's a graveyard in Roswell and there's a graveyard in Kingman Arizona um so yeah so if I totally understand if you want to take a month or two off I mean that's why I made it super cheap 99 Cents or $4.99 to support the channel for travels uh because remember most of the money that goes in when you donate to premium premium ultimate or first class baby goes to traveling uh the contributions go to traveling so like when we went to Houston and Austin so it's true Matt man uh good point Vincent I should be looking at those discounts thank you Molly I appreciate that good idea yep Roswell but a lot of people don't know that Roswell also has an air airplane grave yard and Kingman too oh Colin thank you so much uh thank you very much Roger I appreciate that it's going to be really tough plus I can fly back to DFW of course as always we are Pals it's true we are Pals but I can always fly back to DFW through Albuquerque so yeah Santa Fe only flies currently uh American flies to Phoenix and DFW and United flies to Denver we're supposed to get Houston in a couple months and hopefully it'll grow from there because Santa Fe is growing for sure I appreciate that thank you sue thank you Vincent um but yeah I will be looking at a rotation the good news is like Denver flights when I booked them were $59 one way so that's really not that bad um so 59 bucks 49 bucks that's really good from Albuquerque so and Phoenix I think is like 75 a little more expensive but whatever uh but uh yeah oh nice Roger your brother lives in louville and comes down every year sweet going to Founders Plaza uh Love Shack will miss you I know oh and lady cat that's the other thing they do have Albuquerque does have direct flights from uh Albuquerque to Austin so I could fly into Austin and do a live stream at Austin airport so it's it's not that bad I mean I'm going to be losing working in d or living in DFW which is awesome and flying everywhere which is awesome but it's not you know horrible I agree sock we got to get to Memphis yep that's right freed about an hour and 45 minutes thank you hey what's up Jeff great to see you from mollywood so we're just talking about my new position as an airport operations officer for the City of Santa Fe and New Mexico working at the airport Santa Fe Airport yep there you go Joseph better get me pizza next time but yeah I was really excited to see that lady cat that they have a direct flight uh Albuquerque does to Austin uh through Southwest Airlines Alaska flies there too and uh that's exactly what I'm doing David I've been looking at apartments on the south or Southeast side of town yep that is exactly what I've been doing there's a couple I have in mind but again they're a little more pricey uh 18,900 so that's right Josh work and work your way up Davis Monon yes that's right Robert in Tucson great place to be the land of enchantment Jeff that's right on the license plates the land of enchantment uh Fort Worth Roger if you go over to Alliance the joint reserve base over in uh White Settlement over towards that off of 820 has a lot of the it has the locked Martin uh facility there so you see everything from a c17 to a C130 to an F22 to an F35 so I would say the joint reserve the naval joint reserve base uh that's in White Settlement uh a great location Alliance has yeah Alliance has obviously a lot of freighter with FedEx coming in there and Amazon Prime having a facility out there so yeah it is mostly uh freighter and Amazon Prime so y yes Infidel possibilities and bound Sue yeah I will I will but in the meantime I still have one week left here so I'm still going to be streaming for a couple of days uh so don't forget about that I was I'm going to look at the schedule tomorrow and see uh when I can stream I've got to get some work equipment some boots and some solid pants uh so but other than that I'll be in pretty good shape yep thank you David oh you're

uh they had some snow so yeah uh lady cat they are not giving me any re reimbursement uh Santa Fe Santa Fe Evan but uh no reimbursement thank you Santa Claus that's right Trinity the Trinity site and the White Sands michell range yep that's right Robert I know the sword I will yeah make sure the runway lights are on at night that's important and um what was I going to say so yeah they do snow it also gets extremely hot there in the summertime of course it's in the desert really the high desert and uh yeah so snow in the wintertime and heat in the summertime what's up flare just announcing that uh headed to Santa Fe New Mexico yeah John thanks for everybody tuning in uh announcing hey Barnaby great to see you boot PR uh just announcing where I'll be working next so yeah it's exciting it's nerve-wracking it's a new challenge in aviation and hopefully I'll learn a lot of new things that'll help me in my future career hopefully running an airline uh in the future but I'm excited and I look forward to the challenge rattlesnake removal yes uh no parking deck Albuquerque does Albuquerque has a parking deck but no parking deck at Santa Fe in fact they're going through a massive construction upgrade so it's like Mad Max land in Santa Fe the airport parking lot is all torn up the terminal is being expanded it's construction everywhere so uh to you Barnaby heat and high elevation is an interesting uh Matt man I will not be stepping down from my moderator duties as uh uh Carolina Aviation he has not asked me to step down yet yeah Santa Fe Regional you got it uh flare I wouldn't I wouldn't say it's a busy Aviation Place we get probably if you look on flight radar I think we get three round trips to DFW per day on American Eagle three to Phoenix and two or three to Denver round trips and then we do have a good bit of corporate Aviation or general aviation uh for private jets that come in there for the art scene for the Chile festival for uh work at the capital Santa Fe is the capital of New Mexico so there's a good bit of other other traffic yeah Josh interesting climate indeed no question no question so yeah but I'm super excited for it thank you Roger I appreciate it uh I'm not going anywhere I'll just be in a different location yeah Santa Fe is grown a lot uh Vincent that's probably why it's Mega expensive I think it it will continue to grow because it's not quite as expensive as California or Phoenix and it's close to the mountains so you can have both climates you can have winter snow but you can also have the hot dry weather in the summertime that people like uh and so yeah Albuquerque is way cheaper there's a lot more variety s Santa Fe is very artsy and so you have a lot of those and I want to say those art people but there's a lot of artists a lot of art galleries a lot of cultural things in Santa Fe uh longest runway Robert great question longest runway yeah the balloon festival Josh doing a live balloon festival all the global expresses yep lady cat uh I would love to stream yeah I'll make sure I get the okay from Allen I'll stream there won't be very much there but I'll definitely stream uh Robert longest runway in Santa Fe I believe is about 8600 ft let me verify that long longest runway [Music] is uh 83 8,400 ft so 834 8400 ft and I'm would not be surprised if they would could figure out a way to extend the longest runway to be honest um because being high altitude you need a longer runway for poor performance of the engines so I would not be surprised in the next couple years if Santa Fe decides to extend the runway what's up Charlie just making an announcement that I'm uh headed to New Mexico Santa Fe to go work as an airport operations officer I know Colin I lady cat it's pretty close I would say that's pretty close postage stamp yep uh crisscrossing runways it used to be a military field existential crisis Bob good luck in New Mexico keep an eye peeled for Jesse Pinkman and Walter White that is great advice uh I need to start watching Breaking Bad from the beginning that was on my to-do list for this week uh other than packing was watching a lot of Breaking Bad No Worries John we'll uh talk to you later uh and uh again I'll be streaming this week here in DFW so don't think I'm going anywhere uh but yeah get some rest John we'll talk to you again thanks for stopping by uh AJ D I have wondered about that I have wondered if we could get an a319 into uh Santa Fe here's what I'll say you know Jackson Hull gets the a319 and the 737 in Jackson Hole and the runway is shorter and the altitude is about the same so I would say yes I would say yes density altitude for sure Robert hot days will be a serious issue absolutely um oh that's a great question uh let me give you the link to that Vincent because that's a great question airport uh government so there's a website called yeah I Better Call Saul all right see you lady cat thanks for tuning in that's right Sue important people I will uh definitely I'll let you know exis existential crisis Bob what I think of it i' I've I've seen part of one episode the first episode and that's it um yeah I agree freed great observation airport operations yep and uh Vincent the website is governmentjobs.com and then you can actually uh you can actually filter filter down to airport jobs and that's where I found it oh okay see you Noah thanks bud we'll talk to you again Noah but yeah I'll be streaming on this week and I'll make announcements on that so don't think I'm not streaming I do have to take care of some stuff for moving but it's not a lot because I don't have a lot of stuff which is nice uh but yeah Santa Fe New Mexico chaotic Bean but the website Vincent is governmentjobs.com and you can actually filter and look for the airport operations jobs at governmentjobs.com and that's how I found it so it's different working from private Enterprise to government things move a lot slower so that's something I'm going to have to remind myself is that government moves slow thank you very much Robert appreciate your kind words uh very exciting nerve-wracking at the same time yeah ajd it's true Aspen Aspen's up there high up there very high up there uh the runway is about the same length too yep s chaotic Bean ouch oh all those all those famous people DFW Santa Fe is actually at the base of the mountains I can't remember what the name is is but you can actually drive about 15 minutes and and be in the mountains uh it's High Desert it's about 60 we'll Round Up say 6,400 ft so you're really it's like living in Denver or a little bit better so yep yep one day at a time that's right Robert that's all you can do is doing one day at a time so yeah going into Santa Fe yeah Vincent that's I'm definitely going to learn some things for sure I know fi you know what I may be back there because um it's not that far it's not that far especially freed if if we get uh if we hire one more person at the airport I think we can go to 410 and three days off so if if I can get three days off and work 410 then I'll have more flexibility to travel as opposed to uh 5 eight hour shifts so yeah that's right chaotic Bean sangu Cristo mountains Robert thank you they're really beautiful uh and it's a nice area and uh yeah so the Santa Fe New Mexico so hopefully I'll learn some good tools that'll help me in running an airline or maybe I'll just fall in love with the job I've never done it it just seemed really intriguing and interesting and uh I wasn't getting any bites on on dispatch hires so that's where I'm at so very exciting stuff so any other questions about Santa Fe New Mexico about Aviation or anything like that yeah if we can get 410 hour shifts that would be super awesome so but that'll probably be a couple months we do need one more person hired so when I say a couple months let's say six months since government moves slow because they do um but uh I am excited excited and nervous all at the same time I know Lady K so close Jeff yeah airport Ops is pretty good job that's the other thing is I get to be like right next to the planes and respond to emergencies and things like that uh so that's going to be really fun to be a part of so yeah I had to go through a whole background check and security clearance and everything drug test and all that jazz so thank you lady cat yep it's true that's right ajd that is very true and then if I get some public sector experience maybe I'll benefit in the private sector experience so but that is yeah very exciting uh yeah I think I think being a flight dispatcher definitely came in handy so it's a great great job for somebody who's out of flight dispatch or uh moving on so yeah thanks Josh I appreciate it thank you sue everybody like smash that Thumbs Up Button like And subscribe yeah chaotic you know what's funny about that is when I went into the hotel I was staying at when I first visited there back in December for breakfast they had a green chili sauce true story for the uh morning eggs yeah VIP operations for sure yep most definitely yep Robert absolutely absolutely Jeff total dream it I love doing it I love work in that in um the Air Force or uh when I was with Envoy and Breeze we both did 410 and that was pretty freaking awesome so yeah smash this thumbs up so other people will see I will change the announcement thank you Matt man it's the dad and me appreciate it thank you many thanks Dad thank thank you Dad uh and I'm going to change the title of the video uh so maybe but um yeah so that's where we're headed so I think uh I will probably stream at some point tomorrow don't know exactly what time I'm going to look and see what's available or what's coming in but I'll I have a couple streams left in me and then I'll probably take off Thursday and Friday just to uh get ready to pack and leave thank thank you Colin I try not to try and do my best job job that I can appreciate it

everything considering the trauma that these children went through the staff at Kearney Hindu taught it only be fit in that this Ceremony be held and not bypassed taken into consideration the health protocols this ceremony unfolded over almost a month Arrangements were made to have photos taken on a phased basis strictly adhering to the health protocols many segments were pre-recorded yes even

oja Maharaj Mr Kumar bhagwandin and mrisha ramjit using words regularly uttered by the late SRI satnarayan Maharaja the road we travel was not built by us but was built by our forefathers for us to use dependent krishnamuraj karani Hindu school has earned and maintained its position as one of the leading educational institutions in the currently education district and by extension Trinidad and Tobago our school is a shining example of an institution that ensures that the delivery of the curriculum is designed to cater to the needs of our students and know more than ever may I add in keeping with the times this did not happen overnight this came about as a result of the dedication commitment and vision of those principles and teachers who would have charted the way forward today we're enjoying the fruits of dear labor in keeping with our Hindu tradition the present staff forges ahead to ensure continuity and to build on a platform created by those before us may bhagwan show our choices blessings on our predecessors due to the high demand for places at this institution the school population has been over 500 for the last seven years it is our hope that in the near future a vice principal will be assigned together with the relevant heads of Department I must congratulate Mrs Vintra Maharaj on her appointment as senior teacher in an effort to ensure the smooth running of the institution and maintaining and improving the standards we adopted the establishment of various committees this initiative is also in keeping with our school development plan and action plan it also satisfies the need for succession planning in keeping with the school's motto knowledge is power every opportunity is taken to ensure that our pupils and teachers are exposed to strategies for enhanced learning we continue to perform well in the academics and our SCA results reflect this technology plays a major role in education as we strive to embrace every opportunity for enhanced learning in terms of planning structures were in place before the Advent of covet 19. this allowed us to transition relatively smoothly to Virtual schooling internally each level has a Lead Teacher this teacher works with the other two and they plan the scheme daily plan assessment and address issues as they relate to that level generally all classes at any level operate at the same pace and cover basically the same topics teach us I encourage though to use their personal touch in the delivery of the curriculum I'm a sector extend on behalf of my staff our heartfelt thanks to the supervisory team and the currently education District student Support Services Division and the Ministry of Education for their continued support and guidance in July 2019 we were able to host a

sitaram mandir as one of these stops leading to the Ganesh utsav celebration we continue at the beginning of every term to perform hawan simultaneously in each class under the guidance of the resident pundit pundit oja following this we continue to host our terminally satsang these activities create an Avenue so that Divinity pervades the entire School in November 2019 we hosted our ramayan satsang officiated by the then newly installed hermachar his Holiness pundit Dr ramprasad parasram with our chief gazabian none other than our beloved late SRI satnarayan Maharaja this event was over overwhelmingly received by all as students and parents Lydia's throughout the premises in celebration of Diwali the need for a comfortable class room environment is necessary for any activity air conditioning seems so Out Of Reach as one teacher mentioned since I am here there is talk about air conditioning I will leave and that will not happen those are sentiments shared by many electrical system was so dated that air conditioning was never an option in December again with the assistance of a parent we were able to upgrade the system and have the school outfitted with a three-phase supply thank you again Mr mahabir as we were about to embark on sourcing units kovid stepped in our 16th Termini satsang was held in January and was officiated by Pandit Navin umarat Maharaja this

joined the Kearney Hindu family the onset of covid-19 triggered the closing of all schools on 13th March 2020. many families became stranded due to work and financial constraints resulting from the lockdown came to the rescue of many families as thousands of hampers were sourced and distributed together with devices throughout the country it is with great pride that I extend congratulations so

negativity fear and worry today I want to focus on the positives yes there are positives in my view my dear children covid-19 has caused us to practice proper hygiene something we started taking for granted wash hands before eaten leave in Footwear outside wearing clean clothes coffin in the crook of the elbow be regularly to name a few we as Hindus were told not to drink from jutar Wares we no longer push and shove in our line more importantly it has taught us that we are responsible for our individual actions it has shown us that there is a direct relationship between you and that Divine being we call God covid-19 has no respect for who you know how wealthy our parents are the type of house you live in the type of car you have how much money you have who you can bribe to get what you

most important graduates good day today is a special day for you it marks your rite of passage I know that we are in unusual times and everything is being done in a way that is different from what is what you are accustomed to I am Jeanette Solomon School supervisor one and I am bringing you greetings on behalf of the Ministry of Education and the caroni education District today your theme has given to me by your principal is if you talk about it it's a dream if you envision it it's possible but if you schedule it it's real in other words what your theme is saying to you is act on your dream it possible so let's look about look back at what happens when you talk about something talking about something doesn't usually make anything happen to it it just remains something that you talk about Envision it means that you are seeing it in your head and once you are seeing it in your head and you are convinced then it is possible that something can happen but when you schedule it it means that you have taken the decision to work towards it and working towards it it becomes real what are you working towards at this time are you working towards being a better student some of you are working towards your career your current goals are started when you started your education and you have been working at it all through preschool or to a primary school and now you are in secondary school is the next step and you are working towards that dream you are scheduling it it means that you have to work on time management you have to actively pursue it it doesn't mean taking any road that will get you there you have to know where you want to go and work towards it I know that with the support of your parents your teachers past and present you are going to make it but they can do all put all the work in that they can if you are not working towards that dream with them nothing is going to happen it will remain a possible dream we have to figure out how to make your dream a reality it does not come with play only I'm not saying that you cannot play but there is a saying that says all work and no play makes Jack adult boy but at the same time you have to be serious and there is a time and a place for everything parents they remember that these are your children God loaned them to you for a short time thereafter they move on until in life and during this period where you have them you have to actively work with them to help them realize their dreams I know that it is sometimes difficult as they get older it doesn't get easier but you have to remember that your first responsibility is your child you have brought them this far continue to work with them pray with them guide them and then let them go with the confidence that you have prepared them and given them all of the tools that they need in order to succeed once more on behalf of the Ministry of Education and the caroni education District I would like to say to the students congratulations on your next step forward in life I would like to say to the teachers and principal of the karuni Hindu School congratulations on your years of preparing these young people to make from for the next step which is making their dreams a reality may God bless you [Music] sitaram greetings from the sanatana Dharma Board of Education on the graduation of karani Hindu school 2020. it is a great pleasure I offer on behalf of the sanatan Dharma Sabha Board of Education congratulations your parents teachers went beyond the Call of Duty to ensure that your continued education in these trying times covid-19

Ministry of Education School supervisor one Kearney education District Miss Jeanette Solomon respected principal Mr Ralph Peter vice principal teachers and auxiliary staff members distinguished guests proud parents and last but certainly not least the graduating class of 2020. pleasant good evening and sitaram to begin I would like to sincerely thank you for bestowing upon me the opportunity to be the feature speaker at this year's graduation ceremony today is indeed a special day for everyone graduates parents and Guardians and also the teachers consequently it is an honor to stand here today not only as a recipient of a president's gold medal but more so as a product of this fine Institution nine years ago I would have been in almost the same position as you minus the pandemic of course I would have just finished my primary education at the school and was filled with excitement but I also felt fair fair of the unknown future Fair of new routine fear of being in a new school in new place and with new friends I know that most of you would have started online form one classes and I also know that this is nowhere near ideal but have faith that things will return to a state of normalcy soon enough and you all will be able to participate in the full High School experience on a lighter note today is a celebration of your achievements thus far and so it is my pleasure to address all stakeholders in your success and to share with you what I've learned in my journey from high school to now firstly I would like to address the proud parents and Guardians of the graduating class of 2020 and to begin by seeing a hearty congratulations to all of you it must be mentioned that the tremendous love and support that you have given to your kids over the years has played a major contribution to their success today I'm sure you're very proud of your graduates as they close this portion of their lives and prepare for the next stage in their educational development I know that you were out of your opportunity to see your kids standing on stage in the gowns and caps and also the experience of sitting in your seat switch your cameras on full zoom and trying to take pictures of them however I'm sure the feelings of Pride and Joy still fill your hearts although this is the end of one stage of their lives I encourage you to continue being there for them and supporting them as they advance to Secondary School secondly I must address the hard-working teachers at this institution today you get to see the fruition of your hard week all the years of teaching parenting away from home disciplining and even giving Penance have led to this moment you have set the foundation for a graduating class and have given them all the necessary tools that they will need to further develop academically and holistically your contributions towards their success success do not go unnoticed and with this Foundation the graduates can go on to become the best visions of themselves now on to the most important people here today I would like to extend my sincerest congratulations to each and every one of the graduates having completed your primary school education is definitely a major Milestone and I have no doubt in my mind that you all have worked extremely hard to reach here you should be extremely proud of your accomplishments thus far and you should know that your parents and Guardians are extremely proud of you too to be very honest today would be a good day to ask them for a gift today would also be a good day to hug them and thank them for supporting you because as much as this is your achievement this is also the achievement of the people who care about you your success would not have been possible without a combination of blessings from the almighty God and the love and support from your parents and your teachers your parents have sacrificed during the transport to and from school and have helped YouTube projects even the ones you forgot to start until the night before on the other hand your teachers have worked extremely hard to help you understand important and essential Concepts and most of them would have treated you like that one as you Traverse forward you measure gratitude and remember the efforts of those who have paved the parts towards your current and future successes graduations are seen as a coming of age or a symbol for a major transitional moment it is sort of an official way to recognize when a person steps into the next stage of life and graduates you are stepping into a new stage I'm sure you all have some memory of your first day of primary school some of you filled with excitement others may be felt scared and alone away from the Comforts of whom but take a moment to reflect on how far you've come the good moments like the friendships you've made the excitement of participating in Barbie cars competitions acting out scenes from the ramayan music classes with sir Kevin or even playing catch and rescue outside even though it wasn't supposed to be running on the other hand I also want you to remember the tough moments such as failing an exam or all the time spent studying instead of playing games you've managed to overcome every challenge in your part and have completed your primary education success is an item a miracle no amount of luck but rather it is a result of hard work and a Relentless drive for constant progress it is important to celebrate and reap the rewards of today but I want you to remember that it doesn't end here As you move forward you must continue to strive for excellence and continue to learn every day if famous businessman once said and I quote education doesn't stop after you graduate from college or complete your Master's or PhD but rather wisdom acquisition is a moral duty unquote as you all know I am your guest speaker today since I have received the highest award for academic excellence in the 2019 Cape exams however it is solely not because of this but rather because I have the same background as you this provides evidence that success isn't out of your reach and you too can reach tremendous Heights if I can do it so can you with that I would like to give you a few tips from my high school experience that I believed contributed to my success first of all you must continue to study hard the world is advancing at a rapid rate and education is key to keeping up with the world today as it's still early in your schooling I want to encourage you to use this time to figure out what study strategies work for you there are a lot of techniques for example writing notes multiple times actively recalling notes as you study or the Pomodoro Technique which is studying for 25 minutes intervals separated by five minute breaks everyone has different strategies that work for them but figuring this out now will save you a lot of time when it's time to write important exams like Seussical keep additionally I implore you to never be afraid to ask questions when you don't understand a famous Chinese proverb says he who asks is a fool for five minutes but he who does not remains a Fool For Life apart from all the academic advice holistic development is also very crucial take the time to explore many hobbies join extracurricular activities participate in competitions or volunteer in whatever way you can if you want to try something and you don't have access to it there's always the internet under parental supervision of course you can learn to play an instrument Speak a different language or almost any skill you can think of never be afraid to try anything new furthermore I want to highlight the main motor that got me through high school which is to never give up I'll tell you a story when I was in form five I was selected to train to participate in the international mathematics Olympiad yes it's exactly what it sounds like an international Mass competition in order to train for this it required me to do practice questions in any spare time I could find I know this sounds like a task but honestly math is something I love doing anyway I used to do questions during some lunch times instead of hanging out with my friends and my friends would often ask why I'm wasting time on something that doesn't have a long-term benefit but it was something I really wanted to do and first you have the election came around and I wasn't picked for the competition but I kept practicing second year came around and I still didn't get picked so now I thought about dropping out of training to focus on keep buttons but eventually I decided against it instead I kept trying and guess what it said yeah I represented Trinidad and Tobago at the international competition in England the point I'm trying to make here is that no goal is out of your reach don't let anything stop you from achieving your dreams keep working at it and one day you'll achieve anything that you set your mind to lastly I would like to highlight that in your journey towards success there's something that's even more important than chasing your dreams and that is character development character is the magic ingredient that sets you apart from everybody else as you move forward through life always be kind humble and honest in everything that you do and remember that everyone is special in their own way no famous quote by Bruce Lee says and I quote knowledge will give you power but good character will earn you respect unquote to conclude I would like to close by reiterating that self-belief and hard work will always a new success a famous football player Pele once said and I quote Success is no accident it is hard work perseverance learning studying sacrifice and most of all love of what you are doing unquote nothing is impossible if you put your mind to it and the harder you work for something the greater you'll feel when you achieve it with that I would like to say congratulations once again to all the graduates and I wish you all the very best in your future endeavors I'm sure you all have fruitful and successful lives planned ahead thank you and sitaram [Music] thank you very much Celine for those

Should I Wait For A Bitcoin Pullback to Buy?
if everyone can get to the point where you can get 0.01 BTC most sources say you're set and if you're waiting for a pullback that's also not such a great idea will a pullback happen yeah definitely will we're not going to just see an up into the right only Market forever but if you're waiting for a pullback you're going to be on the sidelines it's going to create anxiety you're actually going to be in a better spot to take a smaller position and buy some now and then if the price comes back to where you had originally bought or a little bit lower then you can buy a little bit more like this isn't the kind of Market where you're like okay well it's like 2022 I'm just waiting for lower prices like I'm GNA wait for 30k it's like that's probably not going to happen so yes buy some Bitcoin specifically start with Bitcoin first even though it's grandpa in crypto but it's worth having

Battle of Mount Lycaeum - Wikipedia article
[Music] the battle of mount lysium was a battle fort between sparta led by cleomenes iii and the achian league commanded by eratus it was the first major battle of the cleomenian war the battle occurred at mount lysium on the border of ellis and arcadia and ended in a spartan victory chapter 1 prelude in 229 bc cleomenes 3 king of sparta initiated a campaign with the aim of extending the regional power of his kingdom this was opposed by the major power in the peloponnese the achian league in an attempt to curtail the resurgent power of sparta the achaeans led by their strategus eratus unsuccessfully attempted to recapture the cities of tijuana and akamenas this failure was made worse when a vastly numerically superior qian army commanded by aristomycos of argos declined to offer battle to the army of cleomenes.though these failures were offset to some extent by the occupation of kaffi a city that had previously been taken over by cleomenes the spartan ascendancy in the war was becoming apparent ptolemy iii of egypt who had been supporting the achaean campaign against macedon shifted his financial backing from the achaean league to sparta ptolemy based this on the assumption that sparta would be a more useful ally in counterbalancing macedon chapter 2 battle aratus was re-elected strategist in 227 bc and then launched an invasion of the elise a spartan ally the alliance unable to defeat the achaeans asked sparta for assistance the spartan response was to dispatch cleomenes with an army to aid their allies as the achaeans were returning from elise cleomenes launched an attack on the akeans near mount lyseum on the border of ellis and arcadia the akians who were unprepared for battle fled in disarray from the combat the spartans scored a comprehensive victory routing the opposing army they managed to capture a great part of the achian army as well as inflicting massive casualties the victory was so complete that it was initially thought that a raitors had been slain in the midst of battle chapter 3 aftermath eratus was able to use the confusion in the aftermath of the battle to his advantage he seized the city of mantania from the spartans and secured it this success was short-lived as the achaeans were decisively defeated by cleomenes at the battle of ladosia later in 227 bc and again at the battle of dime in 226 bc these victories established spartan dominance over the peloponnese chapter 3 section 1 primary sources plutarch translated by richard talbot life of cleomenes new york penguin classics isbn 0-14044637 polybius translated by frank w wallbank the rise of the roman empire new york penguin classics isbn 0-140443622 chapter 3 section 2 secondary sources green peter alexander to actium the historical evolution of the hellenistic age los angeles university of california press isbn 0-5001485x hammond nicholas jeffrey lompriere wallbank frank william a history of macedonia volume 3 336-167 bc oxford united kingdom oxford university press isbn 019 814 815 1. smith william dictionary of greek and roman biography and mythology london united kingdom john murray

OKINAWA BULLETIN, NO. 2--FINAL PHASES
the upper four fifths of okinawa are already in our hands the principal remaining japanese strength of more than fifty thousand troops has managed to stalemate both the 24th army corps and the marine third amphibious corps which has arrived from the north to support them from the capital city of naha the enemy defense line runs unbroken for four miles like a stone wall to the east coast along this line marine troops face the concentrated fire of japanese artillery which has been the most effective yet encountered in any pacific operation now here our armored units must operate over terrain that is tactically advantageous to the japanese volcanic outcroppings and coral knobs enable the enemy to withdraw from one fortified bridge to another his cliffside and placements and observation points command most of the negotiable terrain comprising a stubborn rat hole defense system which must be pulled and overcome point by point our artillery delivers heavy fire on the central strong point of the enemy's defense line the garrison village of shuri which is too heavily fortified for puzzle assault seasonal rains persisting for weeks forced curtailment of our artillery action due to the difficulty in maintaining ammunition supply virtually all vehicular transport is bogged down by roads that are two to three feet deep in mud as the rain continues many organizations manage to maintain at least a minimum of supply by manhandling small units of food ammunition and parts up to the forward area so the modern rain had slowed but not halted our operation and where there is no other means of supply delivery is made by regular parachute air drops with the main road west of shuri severely damaged by shell fire and apparently rendered impassable by weeks of rain the japanese have withdrawn most of their strength to the eastern side of shuri support a possible flanking movement from that direction however a marine unit proceeding without heavy support through the ravines and gullies succeeds in breaking the lightly held western flank opening the way for a successful reduction of the fortress the strongest above ground fortification on okinawa was shuri castle this medieval structure with walls more than five feet thick withstood over 25 direct hits from our naval gunfire the citadel was the keystone of the shuri defense area 120 acres of village and barracks installation which were totally destroyed all flanked and almost encircled many of the garrison had been evacuated leaving a skeleton force which was completely wiped out with the fall of this garrison the eastern flank of naha is exposed and the main japanese defense line begins to crumble into pockets simultaneous with the assault and shuri we were pushing the attack against the western anchor of the enemy defense line the sea and airport city of naha what was soon to develop into a drawn out siege opens with intense bombardment of the approaches to the city advanced marine units penetrating deep into the outlying suburbs of naha engage in enemy patrols as japanese resistance withdrawals within the city proper our troops advance to secure positions within the suburbs and on the outskirts of the capitol we are denied entry into the downtown districts by the mud flats of the assato river and the effective observation and fire of the japanese artillery our carrier in okinawa based aircraft aid in support of the ground action offshore supporting units of our fleet execute fire missions against the naha area the intensive sea and air bombardment delivered against japanese op and battery positions as well as troop concentrations aids in making untenable the high ground commanding naha from which the enemy is directing his defense of the city ashore against stubborn one step at a time withdrawal our troops fight their way through the suburban perimeter of the island capital with the elimination of japanese observation points the mud flats of the assato river the only other barrier are bridged and our advanced units enter the downtown area of norman cautious house to house street by street investigation of the city finds only scattered pockets of last pitch defenders they are troublesome but relatively ineffectual remnants of the garrison that had successfully stopped our advance for more than a month with a normal population of 65 000 is practically deserted falling to our troops at the same time as shuri it is the largest city ever taken by the marine corps and with its capture the enemy's cross island defense line has ceased to exist to the south of naha clearing weather permits an early morning amphibious landing on the oroku peninsula behind the enemy lines here is contained a large pocket of japanese controlling the strategic naha airfield the largest and best air installation on okinawa making a surprise landing from these lvts the marine amphibious force quickly exploits its beachhead against initially light opposition our primary effort on uruku is directed at securing the high ground approaching and overlooking the airfield another marine assault force striking overland from naha south across the neck of a roku has sealed off all enemy escape corridors from the peninsula satchel charges are used to blast many of the japanese defenders from their underground emplacements the capture of the naha field gives us all the major airstrips on okinawa and forces japanese aviation to operate from other islands in the uq's to reach the southern tip of the island now becomes the assigned objective of the third amphibious core here south of nahal our advance is confronted by fairly flat open terrain not easily defensible by the japanese whose resistance area is being compressed down to 15 square miles with the death and action of lieutenant general simon bolivar buckner the interim command of the entire 10th army is assumed by marine general roy s geiger after more than two months of fighting to hold okinawa the enemy now occupies only seven of the entire 921 square miles and although individual units put up desperate opposition almost all organized resistance is at an end using the few undamaged roads as runways the cub planes of air liaison are utilized to transport wounded from the forward zones to rear area medical facilities with an actual flight time of 10 minutes this air evacuation service enables frontline casualties to be treated at division field hospitals within an hour and a half from the time they are picked up by navy corpsmen advance in the southern half of the island has developed into a sporadic but difficult mopping up action many japanese soldiers like these prefer to commit suicide rather than surrender so marine aviation units are assigned to help mop up stubborn resistance in areas that were bypassed these enemy units are often located in caves and mountain galleries which are accessible only the firebombs so deployed in extended order these men reckon order an open field searching for stragglers and isolated japanese units here to flush snipers from thickets and cane fields a patrol uses white phosphorus grenades where the area to be covered is too large for a small patrol to investigate quickly and safely a flame throwing tank is employed to mop up enemy holdouts many disorganized enemy personnel are captured during the last phase of the operation the roundup continues swelling the total of combatant prisoners to close to 8 000 a record number for a pacific operation of the entire japanese garrison of 100 000 troops at least 90 000 were killed the vast majority of these prisoners did not give up until the action was almost over and then only when they had exhausted every possible means of resistance after more than 80 days of continuous fighting the island of okinawa is completely in the hands of the 10th army the marine third amphibious corps has completed its mission in the operation an operation that has given the american forces a vital sea and air base in the east china sea a base that flanks the enemy supply route to the south and one that is only 400 miles from the mainland nerve center of the japanese empire you

Calming Reactions to Others: Talk with Rick Hanson
teachers vary you know they're kind of on a range from strict and tight and at the other end yeah loose loosey-goosey i'm probably more toward the lucy goosey end my kind of theory of parenting and teaching is big pasture real fences particularly with regard to impact on others right in terms of people's choices about what they find most valuable for themselves to take notes or not take notes to engage the chat or not engage the chat i'm i hear on the side of trusting people adults here autonomous see for yourself what works for you that comes out of my own background somewhat uh in the human potential movement which is pretty loosey-goosey and also my own nature as a pretty independent self-directed individual who respects autonomy and others as well that's that's me so that's how i'm about the chat but it opens up a much bigger question doesn't it about how we react to the thoughts and words and deeds of other people and there's a lot of that going around these days including in my mind definitely including in my wife's and my conversations about the political moment the state of the world what our kids are doing what they're not doing that they ought to be doing that we think etc so how can we be about that and i want to enter into a kind of a fairly buddhist reflection about the things in others that they think or say or do that stir us up in particular related to a sense of unpleasantness and aversion uh and and in particular that aspect of the sense of things as unpleasant in terms of their hedonic tone distinct from pleasant uh moving into uh that form of aversion which has which is fear that has to do with anxiety or withdrawal rather than anger which i've talked about the last several times that responds to what's unpleasant that that engages aversion acts out a version that in ways that are more that move against rather than away from that which one finds unpleasant right so you might think about something that's been bugging you lately or even right now okay anything and the typical process in the mind which is designed to do so you know thank you mother nature thank you evolution thank you 600 million million years of designing a nervous system that has you know culminated so far in the extraordinary human brain uh for survival purposes so routinely when something happens so maybe someone said something on the chat you don't like it's unpleasant and you have aversion to it okay and maybe it it particularly bothers you okay three things tend to happen maybe somebody says something to you in your in your regular life you read something okay so the first thing that happens automatically almost in the mind is it takes a very dynamic complicated swirly collection of events which could be what's happening inside the mind of another person their attitude maybe toward you you think or the words they say or the things they do the behaviors they're engaged in takes all that the brain takes all that and turns it into a thing it essentializes it reifies it in a fancy term thingifies it thing rather than being cloud-like and swirly and dynamic and compounded and impermanent and all that it's a thing that's step one step two this thing so now it's been essentialized and thingified this thing is that bad right it's that consequential it's that full of impact it's that big a violation of a norm it's that bad so there's an evaluation that comes out okay that's step two evaluation of some kind charged often about something that seems like a thing which then in the third step now that we've established that it's a thing a thing that is this bad this bad right i have a position about my view my stand my plan my retort my rebuke my my own view about them i have a position about it i am this position that's the normal process right often happens in less than a second boom pick your favorite example you know what i mean uh you see someone in your home and they they you know maybe there's a familiar kind of tension or conflict between you and another person you're managing it you know you're okay but then suddenly boom they say something or you give you they give you that look that just drives you wild there you are right thingified stimulus second about which there is this judgment of badness for which i um have a reaction i am that reaction but here's a question the buddha asked this question he asked in terms of these three is it really a thing is it really brick-like or is it more cloud-like this is the fundamental buddhist teaching of shunyata of emptiness things exist in cloud-like ways many parts swirling dynamically changing first question is it really a thing or is it more of a process a swirl second is it really that bad is it really that bad and third do you need to be a self about it do you need to identify with the views arising in your mind about it do you need to take a firm position about it do you need to be this position be this view be this reaction rather than having a view or position or reaction arising in your mind right how solid is it how thingified is it right how bad is it really and can you be spacious and disidentified with regard to it rather than um selfing about it taking it personally getting personally identified with a position about it the buddha's analysis by the way on the second question of how bad is it actually is summarized in his teaching about the first and the second dart this may be familiar to some i'll summarize it briefly in this teaching he pointed out that certain things in this life have inherent inevitable physical or emotional pain you drop a brick on the foot of a buddha it's going to hurt all right and um similarly you lose a friend you lose a loved one or maybe there's a sense of you know just alarm or sorrow or compassion for the suffering of others that's the first art of life it's inherently unpleasant we cannot escape first arts we can minimize them but we cannot escape some then there's a second dart in which we take what is objectively this bad whatever the first start is it really is that bad but then what we do is we add our reactions to it we make it even worse it's really horrible or we start adding um different layers of reactivity to what happened you know it was naturally wounding that some other person used that word you know multiple people would have felt wounded by it it really was a first start but then we turbo charge our reactions to it because it's the 10th time that person said it or it's the tenth time something like that has happened in our life or it reminds us of our childhood when that happened a lot wow and so what was you know on the bad scale as a first start was like a two hits a certain turbocharger amplifier inside our own mind and it feels like a seven okay and then there's situations this is very interesting there's not a first start actually it's not even a there's no second dart needed and there's not even a first start there's no dart at all but we react to it right um and so by the way if you've lost me on your screen somehow tom became you know foregrounded just go back to the gallery view and then then you'll see me uh and i think tom i don't know why i'm going to do what's called i think i'm spotlighted i don't know i've spotlighted me for everyone i guess okay so i'm going back to speaker view hey tom why don't you turn off your camera for a little bit and then i go back to gallery all right we're figuring it out okeydoke pin the video for rick all right i'm gonna thanks hawkeye pin my video all right i'm pinned there you have it for better or worse great okay good so right but what about no dart what about situations where honestly they did something but it doesn't have any material impact on you or anyone you care about right they're just doing it it doesn't hurt you like for example i taught a retreat several years ago and one of the guidelines of it was you know don't talk to other people on retreat now it happened that there was a couple on retreat who um and this was a in a rustic setting so people would camp together if they wanted to they could do that this couple camped with each other and i happen to know them i happen to know that they have a deep practice they're on the retreat and halfway through the retreat as a teacher i was the primary teacher got a note from someone who said you know i saw so and so this couple uh on a bench you know like 100 yards away and they were holding hands and talking with each other you shouldn't let them do that well i would just ask the question in terms of the is it a dart at all that they did that actually for you does it have a material impact on you in any significant way there's a uh kind of a lovely poem uh i'm gonna alter it a little bit from memory but it's the gist is the same basically it's from women i think anyway it goes like this um showers in springtime hot sun and summer leaves falling in fall snow in the winter time if you make nothing in your mind for you it is always a good season in other words is our showers in the springtime a first start at all is bright sun in the summer at first start has fallen leaves in the autumn of first start is snow in the winter time inherently at first art or do we make it into a dart in our reactions to it so these are this is a way to think about it might seem a little abstract or conceptual but this is the is a big buddhist offering having to do with insight the word impali the language of early buddhism for insight is vipassana having insight into do i need to turn this into a thing do i need to make it a second dart event or is there even a first start here at all and do i need to self it do i need to take it personally do i need to get identified with my reactions to it that still arise in my mind still arise in awareness etc those are really useful including for things that bug us and with practice with practice we become closer and closer in real time you know it's understandable that there's this time process in which initially we can't do it at all we are just hijacked i think isn't there like an autobiography in alcoholics anonymous my life in five chapters something like chapter one i walk down the street there is a big hole i fall in the hole i cannot get out chapter two somehow i get out of the hole i walk down the street i know there's a hole but i still walk into it i can't get out chapter three i walk down the street i fall in the hall i can't get out somebody comes along and helps me get out chapter 4 i walk down the street i know there's a hole and i walk around the hole chapter 5 i walk down a different street so the opportunity through vipassana through insight into our own reactivity is to ask ourselves sometimes is it really a hole no or is there a simple way to just walk around it or even choose a different street guarding the sense doors is a phrase that i offered last week as a fundamental teaching from the buddha that we guard our eyes if for example that couple in the distance who are holding hands on talking bothers you there's an easy solution to that look away right look away or maybe even add to that a sense of well it doesn't hurt me materially whatever they do they do or maybe even there's a little lesson in for me like i look at them doing that and you know i feel really good about maintaining my own noble silence that you know by contrast i can say okay they're doing that whatever that helps me feel even gladder than ever about my own practice and my own maintenance of the the rules on this retreat okay so like i said it's a zero dart and it might even be a blessing so in effect we have these different categories right like second darts first start no dart blessing we have opportunities through insight through vipastana in how we say things and we also have opportunities for vipassana in how we um [Music] whether we're claiming something as our own whether we're getting caught up in our own sense of personality and taking things personally now infusing all this reflection this consideration it's really important to take into account bias there are many kinds of bias for good reason there's a heightened attentiveness that's long overdue to racial bias certainly in america where i live probably elsewhere in the world too that's a kind of bias there are other kinds of bias as well not to in any ways seem to minimize racial bias and one of the classic hardwired biases we have is what i call paper tiger paranoia we are designed biologically when faced with two kinds of mistakes in the wild first kind being we think there's a threat but there's actually no threat we think there's a saber-toothed tiger in the bushes about to eat us but there's really no tiger there that's a mistake a second kind of mistake is to think that everything's fine no threat while in fact the tiger is there getting ready to jump what's the cost of the first mistake needless anxiety all right what's the cost of making the second mistake no more mistakes forever so we are designed to avoid the second mistake by making the first one time and time again so we're very vulnerable to fear we're very vulnerable to feeling threatened and you can see the ways in which our vulnerability to feeling threatened and intimidated has been used at all scales whether it's kindergarten playgrounds or family living rooms or corporations or countries throughout history our vulnerability to fear is really conspicuous and can be easily manipulated that's why i think it's very important to deal with real threats take action appropriately while not letting you yourself be intimidated into thinking that it's threat level orange when it's really much more like green for you on this day so taking into account that bias the fear bias which is the aspect of a larger negativity bias that i've talked about which is supported by a great deal of research in which we're kind of designed to scan for bad news overfocus upon it overreact to it over remember it and get sensitized to the sense of anxiety and aversion and negative emotions broadly become increasingly sensitized to that over time so it's important to take that into account and i think be very judicious and keep it that negativity bias and that paper tiger paranoia in mind as you engage vipassana as you engage insight into your own reactions to is it really so brick like is it really such a solid thing is it really that bad and do i go do i have to take it so personally keep this bias in mind as you engage this reflection and i think it can be very helpful to apply this very systematic grounded in the dharma um way of reflecting on your own reactions and as i was starting to say in the beginning we will reflect on our reactions years later you know i'm reflecting on stuff today that happened when i was a kid a long time ago i'm reflecting still today on things that happened when our kids were kids 10 15 or more years ago 20 years ago or more you know so and with practice we get better and better at being in real time so increasingly things happen and more and more in real time within seconds we recognize their empty swirling cloud-like nature within seconds we are engaging the shock absorbers that have us feel the first start of it without adding second third fourth fifth dart reactions to it within seconds and within seconds we start to watch the tendency arising to take it so personally and get so identified with our views about it our case against that other person and we within seconds disengage that becomes more and more our trait our habit that becomes more and more who we are but it takes practice takes repetition again and again and again and again and again so i'm going to finish up now by just adding a couple of points and then i'll take questions through the chat i think i'm not going to take questions live today i find that it's really helpful for me to take questions and comments primarily through chat because then i can respond more succinctly to things and summarize a variety of things together but from time to time i'll still open it up to bring other voices into the room so i've spoken so far about one of several major ways to practice with the things that we find unpleasant aversive and scary the way i've focused so far is primarily through insight through understanding through reflection through wisdom that becomes increasingly the habit of your heart additionally i want to certainly name that it's important to take action for example if you don't like the couple holding hands in the distance look away or don't walk down that trail because who knows who might be holding hands on the bench on the other side of that meadow all right take action as best we can including for very real things i'm again i'm not minimizing real darts at any scale take action that's of course important another thing that's important in addition to insight and action which i've talked about so far is relationships connection friendship which could be summarized in the teaching from shelly taylor as i said earlier at ucla ten danby friend one way to manage that which we find unpleasant and aversive and scary is to do the best we can to take care of others especially if those others are being impacted by what is unpleasant aversive and scary tending to them and befriend form alliances reach out to allies be an ally to others hang out with friends you know befriend connect meta have loving kindness have compassion mudita have joy for the happiness of others even if it's not a happiness you personally share it you can still be happy for their sake okay so that gives us path of insight path of action path of relationship and there is the path of calm calming the body calming the mind as i talked about in the meditative practice next week i'm going to explore other ways to really rest in a growing trait a sense of resilient calm in the core of your being around which sometimes you're going to be irritated or worried or rattled or hurt or you know stunned but in the core of your being increasingly as a kind of inner sanctuary that you can rest in right so i'll talk about that more next time but i just want to name that as another path the path of of calm it's very useful for the things that we find aversive and scary calming the body finding a gen not a numbing but a calm calm strength in the core of our being and then the last path and they're not mutually exclusive i'm just naming them it's really the path of positive emotion alongside that which frightens us or hurts us or pains us acknowledging what is authentically true about that genuinely true about that what else is true can there be pleasure in the body in wholesome ways eating walking moving smelling tasting hearing seeing can there be things inside you that are going well including just the functioning of awareness and your own personal practice the path of positive emotion alongside that which we find upsetting and and worrisome these are major ways to practice i focus mainly tonight on inside but i want to you know acknowledge it alongside everything else okay so that's my talk for better oars and i hope it was calming and i'm going to take a quick look at um comments that have come in oh wonderful so many wonderful comments great all right so so many good things so one multiple questions have come in very understandably about what to do about things in the world that we find alarming even at just a visceral animal level like just disturbing the smell of smoke in the air let's say or feeling so unsettled about the leadership of our tribe or band at the let's say scale of 330 million people that can be very unsettling if if that is how one feels one may not feel that way okay no worries but if one does it could feel very unsettling what of things about it this is a huge question there's so much teaching about how to practice with things that one in our view are really genuinely bad and two we can't do much of anything about right how do we practice with that there are a variety of things about it one of the things that i've been trying to reflect on myself lately is to not let my concerns about the global bias my recognition of the local in other words we should avoid the pitfall of being all happy about the local while the rest of the world is burning or dealing with injustice we don't want to use what i'm saying here is a way to bypass recognizing social problems big issues injustice poverty oppression etc but while one is clear-eyed about global issues and while one is doing what one can about those global issues including simply knowing what you think about them that's doing something you can or it might also be supporting a cause you care about one way or another voting when you have an opportunity to express your opinion whether it's at the ballot box every four years maybe or every day and how you choose to spend your money your attention your life's force that's another kind of vote so we do what we can that bought the global but meanwhile there is the local there is the local and it's actually often the case that what while what is happening at the global of whatever scale that is which could be the entire globe let's say in terms of global warming climate change um where it could be at the national level or the cultural level or the community level or even inside your family you know maybe you're really concerned about another person your child or a friend or a relative i'll call that the global and meanwhile alongside that what's going on in the local how's your you know can't you know are you all right right now is breathing still going is there beauty around you you know can you help your own body in some useful way today in what you eat or how you exercise or how you move is there something in the local in the local is there someone near you that you can love the one you're with thank you steven stills that you can be kind if only inside your own mind was someone who's been bugging you maybe it's not appropriate to say anything but at least inside your own mind it's just something you could do in the local so i i don't think you know i think there are many well-developed including theological answers to this fundamental question you know how do we practice with that which is a bad and b we're helpless about one of the practices i i want to name is trying to disentangle the global from the local and not use what's good locally to evade responsibility for what's bad globally don't do that but on the other hand to find what is good locally without letting your concerns about the global bias you to miss what is good in the local so a couple of other things you can see the chats by the way i'm seeing the chats as well um [Music] okay someone says i'm going to bring this up and you're it's if you chat to everybody i'll use your name from time to time so um okay so this person says i go from zero to a hundred with no pause what to do there's a lot of teaching about this as well right what if you're one of those people who reacts quickly especially to certain kinds of things so on the there are multiple things one is to appreciate that quality in yourself as it is applied to other things so for example um if the kind of person the same kind of person who could go from zero to a hundred with anger probably can go from zero to a hundred with love or joy or happiness for covelling you know happiness for the goodness and the good news in another person's life so that's helpful right there second another thing we that's useful is to be on your own side and if you know you have that tendency i think of it as like being a thoroughbred or a jackrabbit being a fast reactor knowing that about yourself let's say your personal car is like a ferrari you breathe on the gas pedal and suddenly you're going 100 miles an hour if you just know that about your own self choose roads that have more straightaways that are less bumpy and twisty turning in other words be careful avoid those situations that you know are going to trigger you if you're triggerable you know you can help yourself in your practice third really really really really calm the body really really really calm the hardware do the best you can about that within the limits of what you can you know try to make sure you're eating reasonably consistently and well throughout the day to help your body metabolism be regulated be careful about sugar and the sugar crash that follows you know just whatever you find works for you try to get a lot of sleep whatever maybe take vitamins supplements you know that makes sense to you evidence-based hello uh that are calming and you know do the best you can calm the body that's really really really really really important okay third buy yours or fourth buy yourself some time the sacred pause so in other words if you know that when they do that within a second your blood is boiling within 10 seconds for sure your blood is boiling buy yourself more than that amount of time to find some kind of footing right try to slow it down slow it down and reserve the right to yourself to not say a word for 10 seconds or for a breath have a rule you always take a big breath before you say anything when you're mad or more buy yourself some time they're really good another is when you're triggered talk to yourself you know one of our kids had a friend who would say to one of our kids when they were young remember your happy place this is where we talk ourselves off the ledge this is where we give ourselves good self-talk talk to yourself there's a lot of just simply acknowledging you what you feel there's a lot of research that shows that neurologically when we simply note our reactions like so mad or frozen or feeling hurt or like a little girl where are my friends whatever if you can name that to yourself just noting it not trying to fix it not trying to explain it not trying to make it more or less and what it is just this is what it's like to be me this is what i'm experiencing right now in kind of a fair accurate way called noting as a technique that neurologically calms down the alarm bell of the brain the amygdala and increases activity in executive regions behind the forehead that give us a sense of perspective and planning just simply noting our own experience that really helps too doesn't it you know slow it down okay we've covered a lot of ground i want to finish really close to half past the hour i want to see if there's any last little comment or question so many other ideas by the way many wonderful additions to what i've tried to offer here in the chat it's kind of worth checking it out so that's good and by the way this recording should be posted within two days the most if not sooner typically i'll say one last one that somebody else brought up about contributing that's the last practice right what's the jewish proverb i believe better to light a single candle than to curse the darkness and whereas leonard cohen put it ring the bells that still can ring forget your perfect offering there is a crack in everything that's how the light gets in that's how the light gets in so contribute look for ways to help you know turn help as best you can in some way that's a really good way to bind anxiety to bind anger to to calm down really really really really good all right so let's sit together quietly please for a minute or so no more chats just letting it sink in what are your what's a takeaway for you from tonight what's a what's a feeling you want to rest in or a knowing you want to have conviction about kind of marinating in whatever you found helpful here thank you very much

boomsticks i love the boomsticks they're cleaning the lot here today kicking up a lot of dust i was parked beside a jade driver uh this morning and if you know jade transport in winnipeg they have really nice trucks like show quality trucks the whole fleet for the most part beautiful trucks and they they keep them just clean clean especially the driver that was parked beside me i forget what unit number he was but uh anyways i was talking to him this morning and a great guy great guy and he was talking about yeah they're kicking up all this dust he just polished his truck and then they

here we go never seen that company before must be new hmm there's a pothole here isn't there let's go real slow easy you know while they're cleaning this lot they could fix these potholes too i'm sure no one would complain about that if they did that looks good though after they sweep it eh does make a difference this is what we call the e-log crawl you don't want to make the e-log upset so you just crawl across the parking lot we haul a lot of trailers like this too i think we pick them up in indiana somewhere down there in the us we bring them up here you gotta be very careful with them it looks like you chained them down pretty good but uh they damaged very easy and they're very light the wind will just blow them right off and they'll shift they'll shift on you if you're not careful they're shifty creatures there we go in the pumps a little further forward there we go oh cleodokily let's go fuel her up and go home i always feel like i just have so much to do all the time that's a

painting i'm gonna try and do it myself now i don't know if that's a mistake or not oh find out i try all kind i'm a man with all kinds of traits you know so i'll try almost anything right yeah well you got the tools for it you got everything yeah i i bought the spray painter and i just got to get the paint decide on exactly what paint i want what to call in i i know a guy that is an expert at it and i think he's going to give me a little bit of a start of that pattern okay well yeah we just happened he's going west i'm going east and he just messaged said that uh he'd be here around this time figured huh i gotta stop for food anyway that's it i get your coffee to go okay sure i won't say no to timmy's let's go get some coffee always a nice little surprise to meet up with dad on the road oh that one over there that's bad he's headed out let's follow him got my coffee got some well lunch for me supper for everyone else i guess my schedule is always a little different than everybody else oh yeah dad really misses his truck i can tell but there's a bunch of work that needed to get done to it it's always very expensive but in the meantime to keep him running uh he jumped into a company truck like i was saying before they are nice trucks it's just like the peterbilt that uh that i drove very similar he started in rothstein minnesota this morning so he's not quite gonna make it to saskatoon [Music] so [Music] [Applause] [Music] hey [Music] in three kilometers take the entrance to the right on rde 20 north rte 20 north highway 59 south rte 59 south what in one kilometer take the entrance to the right on rde 20 north rt 20 north highway 59 south rte 59 south and then keep to the right and 420 meters say what in 600 meters take the entrance to the right on rde putting north rt e20 north highway 59 south rte 59 south and then keep to the right in 420 meters wow i don't even know what to do with that karen that was impressive i'm not even mad i'm impressed what kind of road is that could just say turn right 300 meters keep to the right on highway 59 south rte 59 south 59 south park te 59 south oh i get it you're going through the english and the french you can just pick one i speak english you don't have to do the french one to me but it's i guess it's kind of nice inclusive right we are an english and a french country predominantly english i'm just gonna say that but legally we're equally english and french those are our two official languages and in this part of manitoba there's actually quite a bit of french population but they all speak english and that's what i mean by english is the dominant language on this road for seven kilometers because all of the french speakers in this country in this area and across the country for the most part speak english but very few english speakers speak french so you can get by in canada knowing only english you can't get by knowing only french we're here in a familiar yard just backing into a spot in the back corner here got to take this trailer with me tomorrow again for my next load but instead of like hoping for a spot at the truck stop tonight i figure why not just come park here [Music] you know what

I Tried Every Overnight No Heat Curl Method
I'm okay [Music] I'll be okay hi beautiful heatless curls are just kind of the best they keep your hair looking sexy feeling sexy feeling healthy looking healthy but losing a finger there's so many different techniques it's such a little effort and that's why I love heatless curls today we're trying 11. peela's curl methods I don't know why 11 but it's an even number no it's not what Brad I just like the number 11 so we're doing 11 today and we're gonna slay the hair away I'm gonna show you all the different ways of curling the hair with some different weird tools and some things with just your hands and you're gonna discover some new things hopefully that you might want to try yourself because heatless curls are The Vibes baby so I did plan this video I know I never plan but today I did this is the best I could come up with okay guys so just don't laugh don't laugh stop stop laughing stop I'm determining that this looks fine you know I can do this I'm gonna put this up a little further okay there we go see guys I can do it oh there I am so what's gonna happen here is we're gonna do hold on so if you don't already get I'm gonna do this I am going to be curling my extensions with all different methods probably like three on one of them and then we'll move on to the next one and I'll walk you through how to do them and then the hair will dry and then we'll take them out and we'll look at the curls and you can discover which ones you love the most which ones you hate which ones you want to try yourself that's my hope we got a couple things to start with those two okay I gotta get some water uh oh where's my water no all right and we obviously need some some wave tag so let's prep these we got our wave Tech here we're gonna spray this down I'm gonna my wall is gonna be all right after today because you know we start with damp hair when we do heatless curls right excuse me that's gonna be an issue should I tape it I'll tape it down I've duct tape I'm not afraid I have a little duct tape yeah so look at that all right let's put a little wavetech in because it just makes all of our curly wavy hair dreams come true oh okay okay chill oh there we go okay these ones looked the most fun and I actually have no idea how to use these oh my God how do you use these oh right so with these it's gonna give you a nice spiral curl right we're gonna take our hairs we're gonna right on there and then we're gonna feed it through this Loop I've actually always wanted to use these things I just had no reason to um but maybe after this maybe I'll curl my own hair with this oh oopsies oops a little technical difficulty but we're gonna get through this here we go so I'm gonna fish this bit through and then I'm going to hopefully pull all the hair if I'm not doing this right call me out please okay then we fish the hair through and we just we pull it through oh and we oh there we go okay and we got the hair at the bottom boom let's let's let's do that and then we just wait ah yes and we do that yeah baby work our first one is complete the swirly swirl things are fun next up we got foam rollers I knew the name of that I don't know why I looked at it don't come for me please people come for me enough online I don't eat anymore these just remind me of like a Barbie doll which I love Barbie dolls as a kid I you know was gay it comes as a shocker to people and um what I was getting at was that I loved Barbies but I was like too afraid to admit it and I really regret that you know there's one regret I had in life it's not playing with Barbies enough all right with the foam rollers right we're gonna wanna take a section as wide as the roller make sure there's no knots and we are just going to start at the bottom roll our way up make sure there's no hooks at the bottom okay so make sure that hair is all the way wrapped around if there's hooks in here it's fine guys guys trying to do my best but as you know I don't do a lot of roller what am I talking about I don't know because sometimes it's really hard to talk and do hair at the same time and it's my job so it's like slay but like also like you know okay here we go this one can take a little bit of practice boom done that is the oh I missed one little strand whoopsies okay up next we have these things I know what you're thinking you're like what is that that's so cool I think that might have just been me actually but they are cool basically they look like this you wrap the hair around and you flip it over so the hair stays wrapped I've never used these things before and I am very intrigued I really like this this is good for me great mental health exercise today I'm gonna more like twist the hair around so it gets more wavy rather than like Curly like this and then I'll make sure those ends are tucked in and then I'm gonna I really like this one this one's a 10 out of 10 for me already I don't even care if it looks good I just love it I love it so much okay this one is I don't know what's going on in here you look like you're suffocating um okay this girl I don't know how to open you ah I opened it these things you do this okay you just do a little at the ends this is gonna give you the tiniest little crawl ever maybe it's gonna be cute all right get those ends wrapped in there just like that and we're gonna curly curl curl curly curl curl wavy wave wavy all the way up to the top of the head and then we're gonna just do a little just like that and then a little twist and there we go wait that went better than planned these these these I've played with these too many times in my life flexible rods all right wave Tech wave foam a little bit of water if you're doing this to yourself do it out of the shower so you have to like dry your hair and then wet it again I think that's obvious but I don't know and now we are going to start at the bottom of the hairs we're gonna wrap the ends around it really helps if your hair is wet that way it just kind of sticks the rod make sure there's no hooks in the ends and then we're gonna wrap a doodle wrap wrap oh God the hair is falling out of the thing at the top all right we're gonna do a little a little wrappy oh no oh no no no please don't fall out please don't fall don't fall once you're at the top come on baby stay up there come on baby all right what's at the top you just gotta twist it and tie it and it stays can you see that our next utensil is a straw it's really up to your own discretion but I'm gonna show you how I like to use it we're gonna start the top and we're just gonna wrap the hair around the straw like this that it twists as we wrap I think that gives it the most prettiest curl wave Possible Oh wait I did it upside down just kidding let's do it again with the Bendy side down all right once you get to the bottom Let's Fold the straw and let's take a pin and we're just gonna pin the hair like that oh nobody told me it would unravel we're gonna also pin the hair at the top okay guys this unravels and we don't want that a straw all right I've seen these things all over the tickety rickety chocolatey or dockety you put this on both sides of your head and you like wrap it around and I've been wanting to try it and today's the day so it comes with a clip just pretend that this is on the side of her head and we're gonna wrap the hair around just like we did with the last one and then we take our clip this one's so freaking easy and we just clip her into place look at my experiments okay please stay okay it's okay I can I can I can I can do this I can do this please extensions just work for me it's sock time baby yes you heard that right all right let's take our section and we are going to just put this on here and we're gonna wrap it around using a dirty sock is a plus by the way if you want to use a dirty sock that makes the curls stay way better okay at the top before this falls off I'm just gonna make a knot with the sock egg I was so close to just staying up here all right we got our sock in and that's how it should look beautiful it's like starting off like cute and it's just like slowly getting disgusting looking like really messy did somebody say velcro rollers I heard one of you usually we use these on dry hair but it's also okay to use on wet hair these ones are super super easy because they basically just stick to your hair and it's super convenient we're gonna start at the bottom we're gonna or you mother like honestly it's beginning to look a lot like Christmas round two might take five rounds we'll get there we're wrapping it and we're going up and honestly these babies are a dream because they're just so sticky you know like a good velcro is just so sticky that it just stays on itself like that okay so there we go I did it you know the sock is just a little too heavy for this that's gonna have to do okay I have time for like one more two more I'll do two we're gonna do a simple pin curl because this requires no tools just your hands actually it's a lie I did just lie because you do need something to pin the pin curl I like to use flat Clips so all I did here was just take my two fingers do like that and I'll wrap it around your fingers this is what they did in the 1920s right to get that flapper girl we're just gonna pin that right on the top so it looks like that nice and flat and why not have the finale be something major something groundbreaking like yes you guessed it a braid I know it's my most creative one today I had to give the braid some credit God guys the braid has served us and is gonna serve today probably too foreign we did 11 different heatless curls boom so I'm gonna let this dry and we're gonna come back and I'm gonna do an unveiling of every single one of these and it's gonna be so satisfying and so fun and we're gonna see what we like what we don't like our personal Vibes and maybe you might try one of these on yourself I'll be back it is time to take the curls out they have dried I think I hope that would suck if I started taking them out and they weren't dry let's start off with the first one I put in which is this thingy I don't know what it's called this one is so much fun already to take out I literally could play with these things all the time so I just pull this thing down and then Boop and there it is wow that is really curly I feel like it's not doing that that much right now on the head it's on actually extensions but on a on a real head doing a lot of these would look so stunning if you put more hair into this it'd be way less tight and springy like it is right now but I really like this one and it's super fun and super curly this is definitely gonna be one of my favorites I just like the way it went in the hair and the way it came out it's kind of like a sleigh okay okay now onto the foam rollers which is more of a traditional thing to do so let's take this baby out oh this one is definitely a ringlet curl this will definitely drop but right now it is quite bouncy and it's like really curly if you did your whole head in these rollers and you brush your hair at the end oh my God you would get that Marilyn Monroe wavy look and it'd be so sexy okay now it's kind of like our new age pin curl type thing this mechanism that is like rubber that folds over so let's unravel this and this one is giving something I'm not obsessed with it you know these things are so tiny it uses your whole head like this it would take you three million years I don't know if I would like a full head of these curls like it's just not my vibe this it's giving ugly that one's an end for me now this twisty thing that has a piece of metal inside that twists I had a feeling this one was gonna give ugly too because this is so raveled in there it's so tight these things are so small it just is kind of giving us like a weird shape you know what I mean like when I pull on it it's getting irregular it's giving strange it's giving like not what I wanted it at all I don't know that one's kind of for me too like not my baby not my vibe and it would just also take forever to do to your hair and I don't want to take three hours to do that to every single strand of my hair it would just be so annoying I'm not feeling this one okay next we have the flex rod I think I got that one correct oh this one was a bay it's coming out so easily it's so easy to use I like using this I like the way the curl came out it's definitely more of like a wave s pattern it's definitely tight but that comes with the territory when you're wrapping the hair up on a tiny little Rod they come in bigger sizes but this one so far is like my favorite I just love the way that looks that is what I want the straw oh oh the straw obviously the straw is tiny so you're gonna get like crimped waves like look at when I take this out look at how crimped that hair is it is you want to take your time into your entire Hab with it I think it would look sick and then if you brush this out oh my God I do like this one a lot now we have this as seen on Tick Tock thing that you put across your head and you wrap around so we're taking it out I am automatically obsessed I think this is a great size for doing beautiful waves and curls in your hair I love the way this came out it gave me that perfect like soft curl to the hair and if you wrapped your entire side of your head around this it would be beautiful and it's so easy it's like all you have to do is wrap two sides go to bed wake up unravel it it's one of my favorites for sure I love the way this came out ten ten ten ten tens across the board baby The Dirty Sock um I did like this one I liked applying it because it was just like easy to do and it's like you can just find it around your house and anybody can do it I love not having to spend money on things you know I also love spending money I unravel this one and actually it was pretty beautiful I mean it wasn't like exactly what I was looking for but again we're working with such little hair you're gonna get like the most intense wave and curl pasta Bowl so this one actually was giving me energy and life if I did like six sections around the head and did this with a lot more hair and went to bed and slept on it and woke up and unraveled it it would give you really really nice waves it'd be a little bit tighter than say the um Tick Tock thing but it would still be really beautiful and I like this one the velcro roller I love a velcro roller so I'm undoing it and I love it the way it looks this one's gonna give you like a volume curl and if you brush it out it's going to give you like that more finger wave style wave this one has a lot of volume and most the other ones don't so I like this one I like the way this came out I've used them obviously before and I enjoy them and they're really easy to use because they're velcro now we have our two boring ones sorry I did the boring ones last I know pinko's actually looking slay pink curls are Classics it's just a beautiful like easy way to do your hair without using really any tools besides the little clip at the end but those are pretty cheap and um pretty easy to find so a pretty reliable curl that is very old-fashioned style but beautiful and it gives you that bouncy curl but it's all also more flatter more of that finger wave style I'd say and I really like it you know how to a braid looks if you don't then here it is again I love a braid a braid is a great way to just get beautiful waves overnight so I feel like people you know don't even think about that sometimes so I want to include it you don't even need tools like just braid your hair and even tease the bottom with a comb or a brush and it'll stay all night and in the morning you'll have beautiful sexy waves I love braids for waving hair or doing heatless wave and curl methods it's perfect it's great so this is all 11 methods next to each other this is what we got my personal favorite is that Tick Tock thing and also that that shrinky sleeve thing those two are a Vibe I would definitely use those on my own hair it's really fun well that is all the techniques I have time for today I hope I helped you I hope you've ended up trying some of these out yourself they're honestly so easy to do and literally anybody who with no hair experience can do it and um honestly heatless styling is the vibe if you like to check out my hair care line or my hair color line you can do so with the links right down below or go to hair.com that is all for today guys thank you so much for watching don't forget to leave your extra life and I'll see you next time bye

Part 5 of 6 / Paleo Epistemology & Sociology / Richard Nikoley
and and so but but there but it's strangely enough there are a number of women who actually like the use of the word so my so my alternate nickname is master I'll take either one actually alright so um are we here alright so you know v.v let me let me actually stick with that for just second the other the whole thing about antagonism you know in that whole the whole c-word thing and everything I more and more I'm you know anytime I say anything mention anything as such as such as you know in fact in a lot of circles I went saw the speech Socrates opened up yesterday misogynist right have more and more and more you hear that one it's it's not there there's actually very few misogynists in society otherwise we wouldn't be here you know what there is what there is is antagonism between males and females just the way everybody likes it who the authorities another way to look at antagonism is it's creating problems where none exist none otherwise exist right and so the these politicians these these leaders these various institutional leaders a lot of the nonprofit's the ivory tower intellectuals and so on they're always doing stuff to antagonize different groups and this is why it's so much so important that we have more and more different kinds of groups because more and more different kinds of groups equals more and more different ways to pit groups against groups and have antagonists so it's very different from the from the chemist and the mathematician and the computer sciences who get together and build an airplane you know who are dealing with reality what are they doing they're solving problems what are the antagonist doing they're creating problems where none otherwise exist and then pretending to solve them so are there any real hobgoblins yeah sure sure so I mean Mencken isn't it isn't to be taken literally it's only in the context of it's only in the context of those institutions right they're real there's real societal hodgdon financial crises unemployment inflation real estate bubbles business cycles the end go that it goes on and on right but who's responsible for him we know we all know if you've been listening to me you know who's responsible for these but who do they actually blame those guys right yeah and you know why it's the corporations it's the bank its greed its greed and you're greedy too incidentally right it's unbridled individualism I told you it's the same presentation over and over and over again it's inadequate regulation it's never state force and violence never know it's not them dem aside the murder of any person are peopled by a government including genocide politicized and mass murder this does not include combatants check this out death by government on the internets very interesting professor RJ Rimmel university of hawaii totaled em aside 133 million deaths pre 20th century and 262 million deaths in the 20 century 20th century for a grand total of 395 million people it doesn't include combatants so this is where a government intentionally kills its citizens not talking about when they go to war and combatants kill combatants that's a different figure who kills the most natala therrien regimes unquestionably authoritarian regimes number two but democracies kill plenty it's the lesser of three evils we always you know isn't it interesting I got a question actually in the Q&A last last last time last year about what's what's wrong with voting for the lesser of two evils my answer was thanks for pointing it out that you're choosing able all right running out of time so we're gonna move quick so now I wanted you know is social socialism social dutta dutta duh so now we're going to kind of contrast the same sort of thing that we did with with with epistemology now in the social realm right the primitives there you know dirt scratching primitives right they can't have any social power you know cooperation stand by the fire duh duh duh you know lounging around round and round but you know it's because people like this new what the they were doing that we're here and they had to know what the they were doing because it wasn't very many of them they could have easily died out gone extinct many homo species did we were the first one that was successful now she has social power in the paleo and the deal with it we evolved to account for the actions and values pay attention here of 30 to 60 other individuals with each individual having a real and true potential to influence the direction of tribe of the group soul is in essence in essence you know in essence we evolved as little Connie's you know it'll communes right the problem is the problem there's nothing wrong with that a family unit is somewhat like a like a commune the problem is it doesn't scale but that's genuine social power right there you can you you have the everybody you know you know what they like you know what they hate you know how to behave around them and if you if you if you if you integrate all of that you can actually influence what they do and what the whole group does we're social animals there's the contrast right there it's hilarious to me it's hilariously people go in and they and they and they come out with this sticker on you know i voted i got my 1 in 300 million say in my own affairs i ought to say and who's going to rule my life next and they think that's social power so height you know at least they have the decency to cover themselves you know it's have you look that's the same sort of thing there so at this point people say well you know what do you advocate you know it's like you can't you can't say well you know what I'm not for force I'm not for initiating force I'm not for domination you know just doesn't square so what do you advocate what key what how should how should we should we organize decide what should what should we do to fit everybody in and finally I've come up with an answer you know I'm not interested people say why don't you vote first of all I wouldn't do that to you second of all I'm not interested even in a 100 1 in 300 million say in your as affairs or yours affair yours affairs not interested no interest in trying to dominate you or be an authority over you or tell you what to do I am NOT interested I'm not interested in finding out how I can be in the bigger mob right what happens in anarchy what happens what happens in anarchy what everything everything happens

Linux Video Editing Tutorial using Kdenlive
hi my name is Dean Montgomery and I'm here to help you with learning how to do video editing on Linux we're going to be using a program called kdn live we will also need to be able to hook the camera up to the computer to get the video off the camera onto the computer there are several ways to do this um some of them have a little micro card in them an SD card um or an easier way is if you have a USB plug so the USB plug has a big end that goes into the computer and a little end that into the camera we now need to move the videos from the camera to the computer hard drive so we'll start with the menu go down to places and your camera will be listed differently depending on the make and model of camera uh so you choose the the drive that represents your camera every camera organizes and stores its movies differently on the camera so we'll explore the camera and find our movies here's our movies here I'm going to highlight them and we want to get them onto the hard drive we do not want to edit videos on the camera we want to bring them to the hard drive first so I got to right click and copy these videos to the clipboard go to my home folder it'll have your username there and we right click and we paste so now these videos are on my hard drive and there's still a copy on the camera to start KDM live we go back to the menu go to sound and video and find kdn live and click this is the config wizard that you'll see the first time you start kdn live we can just click next and then next it's best to choose high definition 720p at 30 frames per second uh you can match it with your camera if you go higher you will slow things down uh while creating your video so 720p 30 frames per second is pretty good for what we're doing next next and finish we're now going to look at the kdn live interface so on this side is where we'll bring in different media that we can work with uh here we'll look at the effects and over here is a monitor to see what's happening and down at the bottom is how we layer on our uh media so let's add some media I've already got some media here I'm going to add it to the project so these are little video clips that I could include in my project I'm going to add some more uh so you can get different types of Clips let's add that one so when you want to use a clip you just click on it hold it and drag it down into this area uh we can zoom in and out to make it fit we can trim off the beginning and ends of Clips uh by sliding this along um to on more Clips we can grab one and put it above if we overlap them here you'll see a little green arrow um to add a transition so I'm going to add a transition little bar has shown up down here and I click on that bar and it lets you choose up here is the effects area but here we get to choose what type of transition we want so I'm going to just do a dissolve transition and in our project monitor we'll have a quick look at what that looks like make it go so it dissolved the two together uh you can also uh fade the volume this is a volume slider so you can fade in the sound and you can as well down here oops uh it's up here is Fade Out The Sound one to another to add effects we go to the effects list and you can search for effects so let's say say I want to um do sepia so color sepia fet and I just drag it down on top of there now it says here that it's a sepia effect applied if I just go back a little bit you'll see this is all turned yellow and you get to see it right away you can organize uh you can layer effects so you can have more than one effect applied at the same time uh by dragging more than one effect down um there's sound effects too it's not just uh video if I go to audio uh a fun one I like to play with is called the pitch shifter so I going drag that down I can make my voice sound really low or we're going to make our voice go all squeaky next is uh let's do a title slide so we added a few Clips um so so if we click on the down arrow here we can add a title clip so let's add a title clip I just click and start uh typing so tonight's show uh you can change the font size um there's a border on it you can arrange how it's on the screen animated in and out um also another thing if you don't like the fonts you want fancier fonts you can use a graphics program like or that to create titles and just add the the picture at the end so I've created a picture we'll just open it so this artistic font was created in the and it's got a transparent background so I've got a uh title I'm going to change the font size in this make it a little smaller so tonight shows kdn live add a bit of Border click okay so now we've got a title clip here uh its duration is 5 Seconds uh we can drag it down put it over top of that when I rewind now you'll see here's the title and the text and it's gone over top of the the project I can play and that title's overlaid and again you can apply effects we could fade it in or out by clicking this little green down arrow uh you'll notice down here in the bottom there'll be tips and wizards as you hover your mouse over it so that says click to add a transition uh up at the Top This is for resizing a fade effect and uh this lets you change the the the uh the length of the videos um Okay so we've gone over adding Clips video clips adding titles let's add some music so uh it's just a regular clip again and instead of finding a video file we find a music file so I had downloaded one earlier okay so here's a a music file now and you've got one two three video tracks and here's an audio track down here so I'm going to pull that down into the audio track and I'm going to add an effect to that um let's do gain which means uh volume control so I could Fade Out how much sound is on this track so it doesn't overwhelm uh the vocal or the uh speaking in this track so you have some tunes in the background now we're going to look at some of the tools in the bottom um namely there's the selection tool which is the normal tool there's cutting clips and there's moving Clips as a group plus the zoom tool so to use this we'll zoom in a bit uh what we do is we play it until we find this The Sweet Spot where we want to cut the clip so we'll cut the clip so now it's made two clips out of this uh and I'm going to cut it over here as well just to work with it a bit okay so now say I wanted to insert something I can click and drag and you'll notice as I drag not only this clip but everything it gets shoved over so I can make a gap and insert something else in here uh I can go back to the selection tool kind of always want to go back to selection tool once you're done cutting or moving and I can move this around um I can right click and copy a section and then paste so I can double it up U what's useful about this is I can add an effect um say I want to pit shift just a certain section I can do a pit shift on there um let's say I want just a little bit to have uh sepia actually let's do some of the fun ones we'll do charcoal so say I wanted this section to be charcoal um I could just cut out a little section change the effects change the sounds and uh have it um have it render just little bits or be able to move things and create a gap so you can add more in it's also good when you're clipping in Little Bits to actually um slightly bring the volume in a little bit like fade it out and fade it in um and that way uh you don't get a sudden pop in the sound uh just a tiny bit of fade in uh will make the transitions a bit smoother ah right um Okay so we've gone over adding um adding media to your project how to organize it on the screen how to layer it one on top of the other transitions uh we looked at creating a title clip adding music now we're going to look at uh your final render rendering involves taking all the clips and effects and sound bites and putting it all into one single file for our purpose we're going to go render it to YouTube um the way I like to render to YouTube is um to first update my rendering profiles so I'll go into settings and download new render profiles um from here there's several um profiles that get updated every once in a while it's mainly because YouTube's always changing and you can get uh better formats or more upto-date formats so I'll just update some of these rendering profiles um I'm not going to do them all right now but I'll just do two of them if you haven't installed them you actually see the install button and you install it for the first time also if you have devices that aren't listed um in the rendering options you can find uh the different devices and update their rendering profiles okay so the final render button Buton is right here we'll just click that there's lots of destinations that you can render to which we'll get to in a second but I usually first set my um uh file name so YouTu and I needs to know this later because I have to find this file when I'm on the YouTube website to upload so this is the name of the file um so for file rendering there's a whole bunch of different types you can render and uh every time you you choose a different type it gives you different options it also changes the file extension of the file when you choose different types I'm going to go to there's file rendering there's a mobile devices rendering Apple Android devices um but we're doing a website so I'm going to go to website and um my downloaded um profiles rendering profiles are put on under the custom folder even though you will see YouTube ones down here um my custom one is where those profiles were downloaded to and I usually do the biggest and best and YouTube takes that and downsizes it to a whole bunch of different sizes uh for your project uh the last bit I have a selected Zone you probably want to do full project and then we render and the most exciting part of all is waiting we have to wait for this to finish sometimes it's uh 10 15 minutes an hour depends how many processors you have on your computer and how fast they are waiting I'm waiting now the uh render is finished so we will just close the window the final stage is to go to youtube.com um You probably have to create an account if you don't have one or sign in if you already do uh you push this upload button and you follow the instructions to upload your video thank you for watching the video on how to do kdn live video editing I hope you have fun video editing and always even if it doesn't water for you keep having fun from home sleeping in the rain

Clipped vs Clip-less Channels
alex with windowcleaner.com i want to show you the difference between clipped and clipless channels that's a term that is an attribute on our website it's also something you'll hear people talk about clipped versus clipless with standard channels when i say standard i mean the standard thinner channels non-wide body stainless aluminum old-school brass you're gonna find one main style of clip for the most part the most popular is the brass clip by ettere so a clip is what holds the rubber snug tight inside the channel so you don't get any side to side play you don't get any extra rubber overhang and no rubber gets pulled into the channel so there's a brass clip already installed in the channel every channel we offer also does come with a rubber that's a common question if i buy a channel does it come with rubber absolutely so the clips will already be installed in here as well i have a few different sizes here to illustrate these clipped channels um simply because these smaller six and eight inch end array only have one clip in them it's kind of a common question hey i bought this there's only one clip in there that's fine because it's so small it you're not going to get a lot of play in here so what i'll do i'll show you how these come out show you non-clip and then we'll talk about some handles that fit so a clipped channel is going to have like i said the brass and clip in here to remove it simply pull on the rubber and you'll expose the end clip i'll take this off pull it completely out and show you how it goes back in now i know some people especially homeowners maybe janitorial won't change your rubber very often if you don't do that and i'm talking a long time sometimes the clip will really get stuck in the channel the brass will almost oxidize to the channel and it's really difficult to pull it out in that case get a pair of pliers and rip it right out so here's a clip brass clip you could buy these in a 12-pack from ederae or 100 pack from pool x are essentially the same thing to reinstall a rubber in a clipped channel simply take your rubber hold it like that there's little tiny teeth on the brass sometimes you have to bend it open a little bit and clamp it down on the rubber slide it into the channel it doesn't matter which way the the brass clip goes in there's no front or back of the brass clip push it in okay once one side's in pull the rubber out about an inch on the other side and hold it down with your thumb open the other brass clip up pinch it on the rubber leaving maybe an eighth of an inch hanging over and push it in and just like that you're good okay so that's clipped channel and that's how you change the rubber the other option is a clipless channel clipless the rubber just slides free there's no clip in here to hold the rubber in place so that means you have to use a specific handle to hold the channel and the rubber at the same time this is nice and easy for changing rubber you can just hold down on your channel on your handle rather and pull the rubber out so this happens to be an under channel best fit is an under ergotec handle there's ergotec red green xl swivel lock they'll all hold these s channels so you'll see there's teeth on the chat on the handle that hold the rubber and the channel same thing for this pool x handle this is a techno light techno light will hold technology once you lock it in place boom tight fit clipless channel no clip in here is the handle that holds the rubber and the channel there's also kind of a hybrid handle which will hold the channel and the rubber on a few different manufacturers so again no end clip needed this happens to be a pulex stoopsy swivel you put it anywhere on here it's going to hold the channel and the rubber this will work for clipped and clip list standard channels your other handle is an etteray for example if you put this etterey handle on this pulex channel when i do it lock it in place it's only holding the channel the rubber without a clip will fall right out so i hope this makes sense i hope this goes a little bit deeper into clipped and clipless channels and what will and won't work with those channels and handles for more information be sure to head over to windowcleaner.com

Corona Virus (COVID 19) - Basics things to know & How to Prevent? - Dr Rock Britto
hello in this video we are going to discuss about the reason and amico vide 19 that is coronavirus this is 19 I myself dr. Alberto MD in Community Medicine I have made this presentation taking the content measure Italy from the World Health Organization and Ministry of Health and Family Welfare Government of India before going to the pandemic kovat 19 we should know about the history of pandemic in the history majority death has been contributed by plague followed by smallpox then followed by flu and followed by cholera if we look at the timeline played was nearly in the 14th century smallpox was in the 16th century cholera was in the 19th century in the early 20th century it was the flu and in the late 20th century it was the HIV so now 21st century it is the corona virus family that is massaged in kovat maintained the dot looks very simple because the number is only twenty thousand thread clear is the spreading power of the disease even though the fatality is rated between two to ten percentage depending upon the age composition of the country the challenge is the spreading power of the disease so it spread so fast so that is why we are focusing on this Cove it 90 this size is big but proportionate to the population it is even bigger but proportionate to the concurrent population it is smaller but with the advancement in science and technology that is with the vaccine 90 where together the inability of scientific community to understand this virus processes challenge in control of this Cove in 19 so let us see about the corona virus family in corona virus family usually the genetic material will be in the center which is surrounded by the envelope containing the protein spikes these spikes looks like the crown in Latin means Corona that's how the name of the corona is derived Corona family of viruses causes mostly the spirit readiness rarely gastrointestinal illness mostly the infections will be mild and it will not be serious except the sauce that is severe acute respiratory syndrome most Middle East respiratory syndrome and the recent pandemic go with ninety this coroner group of viruses are inherent among the animals for example sauce which happened on out-breaking 2003-2004 the reserve air was civet cat the humans accidentally occurred this SARS coronavirus in 2012 Middle East respiratory syndrome in Saudi Arabia from camel to humans this SARS caused nearly 8,000 cases accounting the case fatality rate to 10% late Smurfs til late about 3,000 cases almost thousand deaths happen that way attributing about 35 percentage of case fatality rate so these coronaviruses was directly transmitted from animals the human to human transmission was not as severe as this kovat 19 now the current situation is with the coronavirus Oh break 26th March 2020 we have crossed to four lakh cases and 20,000 deaths in 196 countries Oh with 19 stands for coronavirus this is 19 it is named as 19 because it was first reported in Han China in December 2019 initially it was called as novel coronavirus that is if you will ask anything about this virus to any of the scientific experts number 2019 nobody would have known about this virus the origin of the virus that is the animal reservoir is unknown know the mode of the transmission way the mode of transmission is important because there is no vaccine or drug available for this virus so understanding the mode of transmission and control of the spread is vital so how it is transmitted it is a respiratory disease it transmitted by that respiratory droplet inflate either it can directly spread from the cough of one person to another person or through the formate person who is coughing keeps his hand and the person shakes hand with infected person or if the person touches the laptop or the door handles tap and the Rayleigh's lifts buttons so then he can get the disease because the virus survives for about days in surfaces so that makes this virus more contagious so to avoid this what we can do is we can use our elbows we want to touch so to prove on this there are two key strategies in preventing kovat 19 that is by social distancing with the amount of Indian wh-whoa recommends one meter o meter is even better so avoid touching the objects then we have to wash our hands with soap and water then we can use alcohol sanitizers with 60% alcohol in it you should avoid touching our eyes nose and mouth we should throw out the used tissues into the dustbin immediately we should use handkerchiefs our tissue paper while coughing so that we cannot disseminate the virus into the surfaces avoid mass gathering in crowded places so this is the steps of hand-washing so step one is palm to palm 2 is between the list of three is back of the hands step four is base of the thumbs stop five is back out of finger step six is fingernails step 7 is it addressed then we should rinse and wipe break using first issue but if there is cloth then we should avoid using a common clock so here we have mentioned the social distancing hand-washing can a mosque prevent the disease everybody eat not wear a mask you can wear the mask only if you can wonder these three categories that is if you have symptoms fever cough and difficulty breathing you are carrying a curve in 1918 either suspect or confirmed case you are a health worker attending that is an doctor a staff nurse health care provider attending the patients with respiratory symptoms then you can use the mask for how to dispose this use to mask we need to immediately keep that mask within the dustbins then we should be seen producing five-person in which solution or one person sodium hypochlorite solution and then disposed of either by body or deep burial now what are the symptoms of kovat 19 symptoms of Kobe 19 or fever tiredness and break off about 80% will have only mild illness a recover from the disease plus 20% age especially the aged population the person who have high blood pressure heart problems diabetes cancer luminous of brushing therapy are more likely to develop serious illness in this pyramid so as I told earlier about 80% of the cases will be mild they these 80% of the cases we present without pneumonia they does not need any oxygen therapy this 14% of the severe cases will have shortness of the breath their oxygen saturation falls below 93 cousin dates respiratory rate will go above 30 per minute and they need oxygen there are categories less severe cases and they recover fast but 5% of the critical cases who go for respiratory Phidias a big shot and multi I remember this function and failure so these cases requires ventilatory support so here is the cove in 1940 rate by age so for less than 10 years of age deaths are very rarely reported in the middle age it is 0.2 percentage and above 50 it is 1.3% age and claims up to 15 first legend 80 plus and here is a comparison for people who has more pretty previously existing like hypertension diabetes cardiovascular disease COPD and cancer above nearly 5 / 6 percentage and if we if they have any if they have no core morbid conditions then they're okay then then there the case fatality rate is less than 1 percentage so how long is the incubation period for with 19 for with 19 it ranges between 1 to 14 days most commonly the incubation period is around 5 days so in case of quarantine we we quarantine the contacts for 14 days overall the contacts here person living in the same household is the cove in nineteen case person having direct physical contact with cove in nineteen and a person who had contact without PPE or possible breach of BiBi and a person who was in a closed environment or had face-to-face contact with cove in nineteen is the distance of within one meter including air travel now this is for quarantine who are exposed to the con who are the context exposed to the cases isolation is for the patient and the time duration is three the test becomes negative and the social distancing is recommended for everyone during this pandemic situation diagnosis is done by our tip is here from nasa pharyngeal swell so the take-home message here is the social distancing unhand washing so unless you fall under the specified three categories you need not wear masks but you should follow social distancing that is at least one meter distance between people and how are hand-washing

Samplicity | Berlin Studio Review & Audio Demo | 30 Years Later Show
hey friends Jax here today we'll examine simplicity's recent release the Burling Studio plugin so according to their website Simplicity website borrowling studio is a revolutionary new convolution based River plugin featuring The Acoustics of the tail deck student borrowing captured with seven of the Studio's finest microphones we borrowed in the studio can position your real or virtual instrument recorded at 18 locations tile it regarded large studio so I must admit that this plugin has surprised me sounds great even when compared with mirror Pro so let's check it out after the vignette bye bye [Music] okay before I listen to our audio example let's look at the GUI or in other words the graph user interface but hey if you want to jump straight to the musical example you'll find the chapters here so that's okay go there and come back here later okay guys let's go first thing let me turn off this huge lead panel here so I can see my screen okay at the right side of the screen you have the Simplicity website I'm gonna be reading something from there and our cubic session that we're going to be listening in a minute but first let's take a look at its specifications they say that the plugin contains 18 different true server positions to have Deca 3 mics a b par choose around microphones positions even higher and wider then they have the 18 Source positions well have positioned these speakers I guess in the instruments more common positions you know like violence one tune Viola so where are these positions if you go to the left side of the interface you're going to see that the violence one or here then you have violence true the violas the jellies the bases the woodwinds is just one positions for the wood mates three variations for French Hearts here the French harness bells forward bells up and normal then you have the trumpets at the right the trombones the tuba three variations for percussions forward upward and large then I have the backstage white which I guess is this choir it's named choir here they'll have mid Stage White here and front stage white oh there we go the 18 positions and convolution so whenever you load one of these positions like say violin is one you're loading the convolutions for Deca three mics a b pair marks and Surround mics you can load the convolutions either from this interface or this menu moving on you have input source Deca tree mics a b pair marks and Surround mics okay the input is actually only going to change the amount of signal you have from your Source you know this source is actually the sound you're running through the plugin in that case this bassoon so let's let me mute the DECA 3 mics the a b per marks and Surround mics so if I press play I'm going to listen to Only The Source mic which is the dry mic you know the service that I'm running through the plugin foreign [Music] we'll have the penobs here the cube you can just click and Design okay out then I have a mute button and a solid button so let me load up the woodwinds position is just one position for the woodwinds okay so let me play something here solo the decade remarks so you can listen only to the decade-free mics [Music] great so let's listen to the a b pair mics [Music] okay now the surround mics awesome so let me open up all the microphones and all the source and the simulated microphones the Katrina let's listen to all of them [Music] commit blend Deca tree Max with deep dry mics so you can listen to both together awesome [Music] okay so now let me give you a nice tip that will make your life easier with Berlin Studio I have sent all my instrument channels to these groups the floats elbows English horns clarinets low clarinets bassoons in contributions okay so I have added one borrowlings to the plugin to each one of these groups and while having the quick link selected I go to the first world in the studio and now any change I make in one of these plugins will be applied to all the instruments to all the other Burling students loaded up on the obos English harness clarinets low clarinets bassoons and contrabassoons so don't need to set the same thing in all these plugins you know so let me listen to only the woodwinds [Music] all the dry mics so now I want to listen the DECA tree mics I play and there you go on the cut remix an AB for Max and Surround mics and again if you want to EQ all the DECA tree mics of all of these borrowing Studios that I have loaded on floats almost English just go to the decade three mics turn on the Queue and EQ let's [Music] go I think it's time to move on and listen to the whole composition I have done well not composition it's exercise let's move on okay guys have explained the interface so now let's listen to some audio examples here 's a simple composition exercise I've made using only Spitfire symphonic series you know it's the old winds they have the brass percussions and strings in the harp as well so how would the spitfar close microphone sound if you run through the Berlin Studio plugin yeah let's see let's listen so remember I'm not using any room mics recorded by speechfire here you know only the instruments close Max The Only Exception is the HARP okay which uses the Spitfire Deca trees my great guys so let's listen to this exercise from beginning [Music] [Applause] [Music] thank you [Music] [Applause] foreign [Music] okay great it's a nice exercise but we should listen to that again because I'm using both Berlin Studio to create the room and a lexicon Reverb to add some modulation details but now I'm gonna be mutant you know the election and listening again without the Reverb tail and all the actually the modulation tales that I got from the Lexicon now it's only the Berlin Studio actually it will be a huge difference again foreign [Music] [Applause] [Music] thank you [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] okay guys great let's talk about routing if I select the Albion High World wins you're going to be seeing that they're going to be selected over here so if I select my float you can see the mixer and my oboe and my clarinet and the blossoms all these instrument tracks are coming from Vienna symbol Pro both on my local computer and my PC server then I said these instrument tracks through these groups named Piccolo's floats no to contrabassums all these groups go to a final group named Woodwinds and then mystery old have repeated the same process for all the instruments so for example French horns they go to a group called French horns and then to a final one breast nope everything is the same with all the instruments okay so let me give you some examples using these strings first let's mute the woodwinds press percussions and harps I'm not using the extra lexical Reverb okay it's muted don't have it so let's listen to the strings with the world Institute [Applause] [Music] okay so then mute turn actually turn off the Berlin Studio 40 strings again [Applause] okay as you can hear I'm not exaggerating the usage of the borrow Lane suiting the strings I want the strings to be closer okay but let's listen to do I don't know I see the violas are jealous there's a cello here I'm Gonna Be Missing here chose I'm better actually say only this solo here with no world Institute it's only the close Max okay so I'm gonna turn on the Berlin Studio here you go okay actually I'm not using a lot of the EB pair mics and Surround mics because I want the strings to be closer and applying 29 milliseconds of delay to surround mics to be even farther let me listen to only the DECA 3 mics [Music] it's simple IQ cutting off some low mid frequencies now the a b power my pair mics sorry make it louder [Music] okay and Surround mics [Music] great minus 24 it was hmm sorry okay so with all the mice great now without the source mic let's mute it all the on all the raw mics [Music] that's great so then close it here and come back to my strings I'm gonna turn on the Berlin switches for all of them and give you another examples let's see here [Music] again without the Berlin studio now [Music] great so let me exaggerate some of the mics so can you really hear that for example for all the instruments and all the violins violas and cellos foreign [Music] okay I think it sounds great honestly and that's okay great guys so let's move to braz now we don't have a lot of breaths on this composition exercise it's really simple sorry okay we have some trombones here let's listen to these cards two cards actually so let's get depressed don't have his strings anymore [Music] okay now without the Berlin Studio [Music] well Boreal industry is doing a great job and position these instruments you know in far in the room let me show you have all of them selected so again only the DECA trip only Deca 3 mics know [Music] thank you [Music] a good future some of the low mids but let's keep it there so now the a b pair mics [Music] now this is around mics [Music] sounds good to me okay natural okay so let's move to the our percussions hi I'll give you some example here okay so let's listen some timpani here I'm gonna build this into timpani with Berlin Studio first soloed okay [Music] now let's listen without the Berlin Studio really the close mics sorry only the close mics so let me give you an example with the Berlin studio interface here we go [Music] so now only the surround mics [Music] sounds natural all the a b pair mics [Music] and deca three [Music] okay in the source again just in case you didn't hear first time [Music] great so do you have any other example yeah let's listen to Celeste here again we have a PSP strip to be Q filter and the Berlin studio and solo it and listen with Berlin Studio on [Music] Okay let's listen only to the source with his dry mic disease [Music] people are in the studio is doing a great job to put instruments far back into the room let's listen only to the surround mics so I'm sorry again solo okay [Music] only the a b pair mics different [Music] Deca trip foreign [Music] in all of them though with desserts of course okay I don't think I should go and listen to the world when it's all over again because I have heard them in the previous chapter but let me give you some quick examples here maybe let's mute the other group tracks and listen to the movements here [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] okay guys I don't think you should check out anything else anymore I hope you have learned something have enjoyed the video you know and see you next one bye bye hey wait a minute so I'm not telling you what to do with your money or if you should or shouldn't buy a or b software no I'm not I'm not rich so I must carefully consider my purchase due to the nature of my projects I needed to buy out a verb and mirror Pro with all their packs you know but if berlini Studio had existed by the time I purchased mirror Pro I would have saved a lot of money so don't get me wrong I don't regret buying mirror Pro because it has more packs in rooms I know it's more versatile overall however ninety percent of my time Berlin students have solved my needs saved my ass so the convolutions are high quality and do a fantastic job of gluing instruments together in a room you know so the graphic user interface is pure Bliss and probably came from angels having a good day so remember oral Institute can also add all the early Reflections we didn't cover that part in the examples however you have a knob for the early Reflections and another one for the tail River therefore it has a reasonable degree of customization since you're allowed to decrease the room size mainly a bit neurotic about realism so I wouldn't change the size however it's just me man sounds good as long as you don't overdo it That's it man please leave a thumbs up if you have enjoyed the video subscribe to my Channel please and check out my website for my free Cubase presets presets if

The importance of validation and empathy in a relationship
[Music] you ask we answer welcome to can this marriage be saved where we go up against common relationship problems and help you determine if this relationship should stay or go hey everybody and welcome to this week's issue you're here with Rifka and slacken on this rainy day here in Baltimore um and I had an experience this week that I knew I just had to share with you all because it was so uh just it shows so much and I think all of you can really relate to it and it really affected me so I had an important issue that I needed to discuss with somebody about one of my children and I was kind of you know emotional about it and I felt that at the end of the conversation there was really no resolution or really nothing that felt good to me and I after the conversation I sent a text message to the person I had been speaking to and I said you know in so many words I said it would be really nice to just be validated for you know my feelings and the person wrote back I just can't do that I don't have enough information about the situation to validate you and I just felt so like um invalidated well I felt like I was just left hanging and here it was like this sad thing that I was feeling and the person just could not stretch and I'm not expecting this person to you know know a manga or fulfill me the same way you know somebody who does this work would but I just would like I really wanted just some comment like yeah that makes a lot of sense you know where I can see why you would have been upset even if she didn't agree with me about what I was upset about I just really wanted some validation and I came home and I went to my wonderful husband and I said you know could you just like validate me or something I just felt so lost and I was thinking of all of you because I was thinking you know this person is not related to me she's not somebody who you know is like a family member so it's okay you know I can I I have to see her but it's okay you know she's a nice lady and it's fine it's not going to make or break things for me but what if she was my husband or what if you know she was your wife shalomo and you know being married to somebody who is just not validating or is not understanding what that means to like hear you it's just very lonely and so I really wanted to bring this up with all of you shalomo time in yeah I think one of for those of you who are familiar with the dialogue process um you may have read about it in our book five steps to a happy and healthy marriage in chapter four and acknowledge the other um you may have even watched our video or or even have the marriage Mastery School with the video in it but I find that when working with couples the validation piece I always have to give them like a little bit of warning beforehand because it's not something that we're used to doing because validation is not about giving in or you know acknowledging that the other person is right or wrong or agreeing it's acknowledging that the other person has the right to feel the way they're feeling and it's really not about you and I think that's one of the hardest things for people to do is to really go out of oneself and go into the world of the other and really be there for them so whether she agreed with you or didn't the point is this is what you are feeling this is what you experienced and you just wanted that to be acknowledged that yeah makes a lot of sense that you did feel that way [Music] as opposed to well I don't know enough information to validate you so therefore I can't do it validation is not about it's not about objective um objective truth that we have to verify whether something is accurate or not and only then can we acknowledge your feelings oh it's about acknowledging the way that you're feeling your experience regardless of whether it's maybe you're completely delusional you made up a whole it's just a story in your head doesn't matter this is the way you're experiencing it and you you have a right to have your feelings so always coach couples that I want you to realize that you're not agreeing you're not agreeing with the other person um maybe you do agree but it doesn't matter you just really showing that you heard what they had to say and that they have a right to feel what they're feeling and we and what we usually I use the simplest way to Value this just to say you're me what you're saying makes sense or you make sense and that's the simplest way to validate without getting it too complicated it really just shows and absolutely has to be done sincerely but it shows who you're listening and that what the other person said is important to you even if you disagree I remember this happened similar with with it was a very significant and family member and we had you know some budding heads at around some things and I said you know what let's would you like to sit down and have an Imago dialogue with me so we can really like get to a good place and she's like no I do not want to have one with you because I don't want to have to agree with you and this was a very close person to me and it was like so interesting that she was so threatened I guess is the word to like sit down and you know I wouldn't have asked her to agree with me I just wanted someone to hear me out and to say like to just know that to just I guess acknowledge that I am a person yeah like this conversation left me feeling like I'm stupid or like I'm weird and I didn't have a right you know to have the feelings that I did and so that's the beauty of the work and that's the beauty of being a good listener you all know of certain friends that you have that are just great listeners that just make you feel so much better after you call them you know after something happens and you just want to vent and they just make you feel better and then you all know the people that you call and you're kind of just like uh that wasn't such a great conversation it didn't leave me you know feeling that great and wouldn't it be amazing if your spouse was that great friend that person that was the best listener um so you wouldn't have to turn elsewhere that your spouse would be the person that you turn to and you would walk away feeling really satisfied so I guess this is an invitation you can forward this podcast issue to your spouse if you feel comfortable and just kind of say you know I'd love to learn how to be a great listener for you so I can be that person for you so we can turn together to each other right you may not want to afford it to them because you think they're a bad listener to kind of imply you know uh you may want to listen to what they're saying because I don't feel like you hear me you may not want to do that that might be a little bit no but I mean say like no I said the opposite way that you you would say I want to learn how to listen to you so I want you would hear this and see how we can practice this together yeah like let's practice great listening together or if you don't feel comfortable term to you because you are an awesome listener and you don't just say things like you know someone's sharing with you their pain and you say I hear we have something like that you know I hear and that really does nothing and it takes a lot of intention because especially if it's a friend it's one thing but when it's close when it hits close to home or when they're complaining about you um we that generally get defensive we've talked a lot about this about how the brain operates when we feel unsafe when we feel threatened we are not our instinct is not to kind of be calm and present and really be open to to anything else we're just kind of caught up in ourselves so this really takes intention to really stop what you're doing to get out of yourself to not feel threatened and to just acknowledge that the other person has their own opinion and you don't have to agree and you don't have to and you don't even have to change because of it no it's no no expectations of anything just being present and being there for the other person and a lot of times when you do that their complaints go down when you when someone feels validated um the anxiety that they often have about the situation dies down they don't even need to keep harping on it because they finally felt heard right like after that finished for me but it was just like I was left in the Lurch because you know it just felt not complete but now it does so I thank you you're welcome and for those that help you to do that and they'll really have to learn how to do it it's not you know we always said we've talked we talk about this a lot that when we first got married you know rifles you always say like I was a good listener and I always thought I was a good listener and and people used to always used to come to me to tell them about their problems because that's kind of how I this is an ideal field for me for me to be empty but just gravitated towards me to talk to me because I was easy I guess I was tried present but um as much as I was thought I was a good listener when I didn't really know what validating was I mean I don't think I tried to tell people try to correct people but especially though if I got threatened I would be very difficult like when we would have if we had a discussion about something um yeah and you're upset with me about something I disagree with it wouldn't be hard for me to say well that makes sense if I hadn't learned how to do that I don't think I'd be able to do that that would not be my instinct my instinct would be to defend myself and to prove why I'm right or you know why these accusations are false and I think that's uh I think for most of us that's the case so it's really something we have to learn but the good news is it can be learned and it can shift the dynamic because once you validate it it just it changes the whole relationship it's not about you're not no longer in a power struggle where it's who's right who's wrong but I don't have to agree with you all the time but I I can't acknowledge how you're feeling and you have a right to feel the way you do and we all have our own stories we all have our own uh reactions based on our own past based on our own life experiences we are not identical as much as we think we have a lot in common but we really don't think the same way and see things the same way you can think of it it's okay when you're traveling to another country you know you you really work hard to be able to speak their language or be able to understand the nuances of that culture and you can think of your spouse as a world of their own and when you're you know kind of listening to them you're almost crossing the bridge into that other world with another language and with another reality problem is it's it's threatening because our spouse is it's too close to home I got one story I like to tell is that um there was a rabbi um orthodox Jewish rabbi um and he had he liked to have people over his house for for Shabbos for the Sabbath um to experience a traditional a traditional Sabbath and there was one student that used to come to his classes and he would invite them her to come for for the Sabbath and she was just always kind of reluctant and she was an anthropologist and she spent a few months in Africa studying the pygmies and he said no you don't have an you're not afraid of spending time with the pygmies but you're afraid of spending time with the Orthodox Rabbi and the moral of the story was that because it hit too close to home because she wasn't afraid of becoming a pygmy she knew that that was a different culture she could look at it from the outside and respect it and not judge it and not feel threatened but once it hit close to home once she was with someone from her own from her own tradition and maybe she felt threatened that she had to you didn't say she was Jewish I didn't say she was Jewish um but she found someone that she from her own tradition where she felt that and if I go to his house maybe I'm gonna want to be more observant or Sabbath observant um you know that was too threatening for her so she wasn't able to look at it from an outsider's perspective from his neutral perspective because it felt close to home and I think that's the same thing for I'm dealing with loved ones that as mothers it's easier to you know you can go to another country and hold space for those other people but you're there's a certain threat that if I acknowledge your point of view that means that I have to change um if I acknowledge um you know the culture in you know Zimbabwe I and I go there and appreciate it I don't feel threatened that I have to become like that but if I if I acknowledge my spouse um then there is a threat that you know maybe I'm going to have to do something different and we want to just again one of the biggest things is creating safety and that's why having a structured way to dialogue about frustrations um is very helpful because it takes away that threat it takes it helps calm the brain down so we don't have to go into that protective mode which gets us in so much trouble and leads us to you know reacting so I think that the validation is uh is one of the most important pieces of the dialogue process because it shows that you that you've really got it that you really made the trip to the other person's world that you really kind of gotten out of yourself to experience that other person's reality so if you're wanting to know where to go to learn these techniques and to learn effective communication I recommend you go back to the book that we sent you in our first email to you and reread it you know over and over again until you really Master effective communication and then we've just started um so we can be more personal in how we reach each of you that needs some more help we've opened six spots per month to kind of just

get over how enormous the cat is guys i know you've heard about it a hundred times in this video but the cat is huge yeah you're a big giant cat aren't you and look jack skellington's hands are big enough to grab me and pull me in all right i guess that's it one last goodbye to our buddies here look how absolutely enormous these guys are can't get over it i want them all i want them all [Music] [Applause] you

03.8 - Querying Knowledge Graphs with SPARQL
welcome this is information service engineering lecture number eight knowledge graphs part three in this section of the lecture we are going to query knowledge graphs with sparkle the sparkle query language is here on the query level of the semantic web technology stack and it's pretty similar to sql or sql for relational databases what is particular about sparkle it's a protocol which works on top of http so it's a client-based client server based architecture you have a sparkle client usually in your browser and you have a sparkle server which is a sparkle endpoint in between they are simply talking http and on top of http there is the sparkle protocol layer and you simply pass the sparkle query via http to the sparkle server everything works here again like anything else in the semantic web on port 80 which is the standard http port which means you don't need any additional port regulations and administrations for your firewall and you can simply use an external sparkle server in that way but we don't have to look closer into that protocol let's have a look at the sparkle endpoint so we are dealing with two knowledge bases so you have already learned about dbpedia and wikidata and these two we are going to surf and query now in this lecture okay we will start with wikipedia simply since the names there are self speaking for the properties for the individuals for all of the entities and simply for that reason it's easier for you to understand the sparkle query before we then later on switch to wikidata okay most of all we will start with a small let's say example knowledge graph so this is a small sample that we have taken out of dbpedia and we have of course endorsed it and changed it a bit according to our needs and what you see here in this small rdf based knowledge graph that we are querying next we have several books for you first book is 1984 by george orwell probably you know that it's a dystopian novel then we have another book it's the inconvenient truth by al gore so this of course has something to do with global warming and climate change and we have another book called make room make room from harry harrison this is also a science fiction novel and it's also a dystopian novel and it has been yeah filmed and the film probably you have seen the rather interesting film from the early 70s with charlton heston it's called soylent green i can recommend that okay so how does sparkle query work for any kind of query we need variables and spark variables usually then are bound to rdf terms and within your query a variable simply is represented by a name of the variable which is led by a question mark so question mark and then any character sequence this is the name then of your vari variable and within a sparkle query this is a variable and in the same way as in sql a query for variables is performed via a select statement so you see here select title author date all of three are here variables this looks exactly like in a sql query and the result of your query again will be a table like in a sql query and the table consists of you know exactly then columns of the results that you have specified within your select statement so here i want to have a table consisting of title author and date and this will be then filled by how i specify the rest of my sparkle query so simply keep in mind sparkle results here are given in terms of tables and the single columns of the table they are made out by the variables that you have here behind your select statement okay how does sparkle work sparkle works with graph pattern matching so it's based on rdf turtle serialization so if you know turtle you can read sparkle and you do basic graph pattern matching what's a graph pattern or triple pattern this is an rdf triple that contains variables at any arbitrary place so a triple we know that consists of subject property and object and on any of these plays of course can be variables within your query so therefore a graph pattern or triple pattern is turtle plus variables simple examples if i want to look for books and their authors and we know that books and authors are connected via a specific property here for example dbo authors then we are looking for a variable which we might call book we might call it also in a different way and then comes the turtle version of exactly that property which means we can abbreviate that by using here dbo as a prefix and then say author so this is relating to the sample knowledge graph that you have seen a few slides earlier and then the object will be another variable which we call author which means then we are querying the knowledge graph that we have seen for triplets which contain as a property author and we want to see which books are connected to which author so here you see author and book are my two variables and now if we are going to look at the knowledge graph example we had what we want to have is of course the books we have there plus dbo author you see this here also indicated in the red arrows and then the authors which belong to the books like here george orville al gore or harry harrison so this is graph pattern matching because the sparkle so the knowledge graph is scanned and iterated with the help of that sparkle query and then there is graph pattern matching going on we are simply looking which patterns here are matching and then exactly the matching pattern are returned and delivered back in the query okay now this was the matching of one pattern what is quite straightforward i can construct complex query pattern simply by adding one graph pattern after another graph pattern and this is then a so-called conjunctive query because these graph patterns are joined conjunctively so for example here if i want to find books their authors and their genre i need then two graph patterns the first one simply connecting author with books by dbo author and then i look for the books and their genre so i take them book and then dbo literary genre this is again a fixed property and i use genre as a variable and the interesting thing here is book if i use this here this is the same variable so it refers to the same book so for the same book we want to have its author and its literary genre if we want to do that so this is a conjunctive query let's make it a bit more complicated let's say we want for a given uri which here of course is a book so for a given book uri we want to find its author or authors if there are more the birth places of its authors including the number of population of the birthplace so this would be then a three-step query first of all what we are having we we take a given book uri so for example here brave new world we are looking for the author via dbo author then we are looking for the birthplace of the author which would be the author dbo birthplace and then the birthplace as a next variable so as you see here author in the first line which is the object it's also author then in the second line as a subject and then of course we are in the same way connecting the third graph triple pattern with birthplace population total and then the population number which might be a string or whatever or a number in that case and here of course the object of the second graph pattern will become the subject of the first graph pattern so you see here if you think in terms of relational databases these are a lot of joints going on so these operations usually are costly but in a sparkle query you can solve this via graph pattern matching okay so these are the graph patterns now let's have a look how a real complete sparkle query would look like so this is the sparkle general query format that you see here the query is slightly different but more or less the same like before what we are looking for here is now search for all authors and the titles of their notable works first thing we see here are the so called prefix definitions in the prefix definitions i specify all of the name spaces that i need like you know this already from turtle of course i define here prefixes to make things that come later on easier to read so better readable okay then comes my select statement and after the select keyword in sparkle there come the output variables we know this already so here for example i want to have the author names and i want to have the title next in sparkle i have to say yeah which graph should be queried this is the from clause from clauses are also available in sql so here it's quite similar i specify exactly the graph to be queried if i leave this out then i query the default graph of that sparkle endpoint that i query and then comes the so-called where clause and here i specify all of the graph patterns that should be matched i can do this then much more complicated so i can then also include filter clauses but here i simply combine first some graph patterns in a conjunctive way so first i'm asking for um okay what i'm looking for the other should be of type writer so that we really have authors then i want to have the label of the author so that i can read it and then i want to see okay what's the notable work of that author and of course i want to see the label of that notable work simply to have something readable there and not only the uri because i'm not always looking at dbpedia and then from the uri i don't get enough information so therefore i look simply for the label so here you see again we have the link to the sparkle endpoint which automatically also then gives us here the query we are looking for and we execute that query and what you are seeing here is then a table consisting of author names and titles so this here are the names of the variables in the columns and then you see here yeah lots of author names and lots of titles and of course they are given here since we are asking dbpedia often in different kind of languages so you see here en always stands for english pt stands for portuguese for example fr stands for french i t stands for italian and so on so there are lots of languages so therefore you have lots of repetitions going on there okay but this is our standard sparkle query format okay now let's make this a bit more complicated you can modify the output that we have so for example if you want to search again for all the authors and the titles of the notable works now i can order the output i can say i want to order it in ascending order by the authors this is the very first clause you see here order by asc gives the direction ascending and descending so ascending here by and then here in parenthesis the author name this is the variable according to which you are ordering your output you could of course order this then according to a sequence of variables then it's first ordered by the first variable you see here and then by the second one and so on i want to limit the results only to the first 100 then i use the keyword limit and tell the number how many i want to see and i don't want to start with the very first one i want to start with an offset of 10 which means i want to start at position 10 so i give an offset position of 10. let's see this query then here in the dbpedia sparkler interface you see i have to have the order by clause i have the limit clause i have the offset clause i execute the query and then you see it's only a hundred and it's the first hundred and we can't even read it unless you are able to read arabian script and here you see of course the first 100 examples here and yeah this is the according result that we wanted to see so now we know already this general spark query format and how to modify our output one more thing we have to learn here in the first sparkle lecture and this is we can further modify you know and filter the graph patterns that we have here so we specify constraints for the result and one is a filter constraint and i can say here for example look at the query search for all authors and their notable works and now i look for works that have more than 500 pages and again i limit the results to the first 100 so let's have a look at the graph patterns first pattern author is of typewriter so i look for all the authors then i look for the author name which means author rdfs label author name so this is what i'm looking for here in the output i look for the author name again i look for the notable works and i look here for the number of pages of this notable work and here the number of pages i pose a filter condition directly afterwards which says filter that's the keyword and then i say in parenthesis my constraint my filter condition i say the variable pages i had here before must be larger than or greater than 500. so that specifies that i want to have only books with more than 500 pages and in the last line here i'm again looking for the title of that work so i look for the rdfs label of that work and put this in the variable title which is then here also in my output variable so in my output variables i have the author name the title and then the number of pages which must be larger than 100 and i only am interested in the first 100 within my query results here so i go here to the query you see here exactly the graph patterns and the filter condition we were talking about i execute the query and you see here then of course this is then a list of exactly these kind of novels or works the title and then the number of pages and you see here of course these page numbers are larger or greater than 500 this was the condition and it's only the first 100 but again since we have not restricted to a specific language again we have many repetitions in there okay now let's see how we can get rid of these many repetitions we want to filter for a specific language and the language filtering is one of the so-called unary operators of sparkle and besides the language filtering which we have here that's the um in this line you see here language a so every so now this was a bit too quick so we have here language of a specific expression a and this means yeah a usually is a literal and we are asking for the language of this literal a and the result then would be another simple literal so this would then be for example english french italian so it would be this two character identifier that i can access here there are even more so what i can do here for all of these operators i can negate for example if the result type a or a is a boolean operator i can simply negate it if it's numeric i can make it positive i can make it negative i can ask whether a specific variable is bound so the result will be yes or no it will be boolean true or false if the variable is bound or not to an rdf term i can ask if a is a uri i can ask if a is a blank node or if a is a literal i can simply then convert a to a string which means if a is a url an entity i can simply then treat this url as a string and convert it to a string and i can also ask you know what kind of data type has a specific literal a and then i there a uri is returned telling me that this for example is a date or this is a boolean or this is a string or this is a kind of other kind of data type of that literal in our example we are looking here at the language and what we are going to do here is we are search again for authors the books we filtering the results only for english labels and here we are looking for environmental fiction books and again we limit the results to the first 100 let's have a look at the query here again author is of typewriter then we want to have the label of the author and therefore the label we have the first filter condition we say the language of the author name should be en so it should be english and then we are looking for the work of the author and then we are simply looking here for the label again of the work which is the title and we are filtering exactly this title for the language of the title being english and the other new thing we are adding here we are looking for the work again written by the author should have a specific subject and the subject here should be among the category environmental fiction books of course to know that you have to look closer to the knowledge graph of dbpedia and to get along with it a little bit but you will do these kind of queries a lot then in the lab courses and in the exercises of the lab course and again we have limit 100 so we are limiting this query to the first 100 so we have it here again in the sparkle endpoint of dbpedia we executed and now you see the result is looking much better since we only have here now the english labels of the authors as well as of the titles and now you see here probably a few familiar authors probably you have heard here of douglas adams and he has written an environmental book so last chance to see for example and you find also more however the number of results here is limited to the first 100. okay so this was our first adventure in sparkle in the next section of the lecture you will learn more so then we are querying knowledge graph with sparkle again but it will become a little bit more complex you

Update: Unsponsored Review, Xeroshoes, Men's Cloud Aqua“ Sandals.
hey here's my first update to my review i found some nice ice cold water from snowmelt to walk in but okay how do these feel in the water they feel pretty good i'm noticing that some of the drag caused by the water actually pulls the toe down a little bit so i don't know how that will work on a rocky creek bottom or lakeshore obviously i'll find out oh look my feet are turning red okay so that water was pretty chilly um just my first update okay bye oh yeah these are zero shoes men's cloud aquas okay bye

Entrepreneurship | Peter G. Klein
all right good morning everybody it's a real pleasure to be here with you it's actually a real pleasure to be anywhere other than home right now I normally participate in a number of conferences and seminars over the summer and in the fall and pretty much all of them have been canceled even events as late as October November have already been preemptively canceled it's really only the Mises Institute that's still running as normal although of course speaking to a roomful of Austrian economists normal is not exactly the word that that comes to mind but it's my pleasure to speak to you this morning about entrepreneurship and probably you know you've heard a lot about famous entrepreneurs and you've heard a lot of discussion about entrepreneurship maybe in your classes but certainly in the news and on TV and from politicians and so forth you know certainly a hot topic in our contemporary society you know whether we're talking about small business owners and the role that small business plays in communities or maybe even in in fostering economic growth more broadly whether we're talking specifically about high tech right we're all much more cognizant of technological change and technological achievement than maybe we were you know when I was a kid or when my parents or grandparents were young certainly we had technological change over many many decades and even centuries but it wasn't quite a salient in our public discourse in our imagination as it is today maybe we're talking about developing countries and how you know economic growth comes from the bottom up rather than the top down maybe we're talking about you know visionary leaders or slightly crazy people right who are good at seeking favours from from politicians to get what they want nonetheless you probably have not studied a lot about entrepreneurship in your core economics courses right maybe it's mentioned from time to time but entrepreneurship is not really a core topic in the undergraduate or graduate economics curriculum you know it's kind of a esoteric side topic it's sort of a cool and fun thing that is in the news and lots of people are interested in it but you wouldn't get it in your first-year courses or maybe even in any of your courses as an economic student at a regular university so why do we at Mises University have a lecture on entrepreneurship on Monday morning if I count correctly not including last night this is lecture three right so this is gonna be like the third most important thing obviously I'm the the most important speaker but the third most important topic on the curriculum what why do why do Austrians give entrepreneurship a more central role in their theorizing about markets about the economy you know compared to other economists actually if you just look at Mises human action just flip to the index you see that there are many many entries for entrepreneurs and entrepreneurship you know we talk a lot about epistemology and other fancy things but in epistemology gets far fewer index entries right then then a topic like entrepreneurship by the way look at equilibrium equilibrium just eats out a few a few page references but entrepreneurship is all over the place and human action so that should be a clue right away that in the Meuse essien understanding of the market the entrepreneur is not a peripheral side player right entrepreneurship is not a an applied topic for day five of a week-long seminar it's right there at the heart and center of Mises understanding of a market economy and this is actually quite clear from the text itself Mises says this is human action it is impossible to eliminate the entrepreneur from the picture of a market economy it's impossible to eliminate the entrepreneur from the picture of a market economy you cannot look at a market economy without seeing the entrepreneur if you're looking at it correctly Mises goes on the various complementary factors of production cannot come together spontaneously they need to be combined by the purpose of efforts of men people at certain ends and motivated by the urge to improve their state of satisfaction in eliminating the entrepreneur one eliminates the driving force of the whole market system the entrepreneur is the driving force of the whole market system what the heck is he talking about okay well there's a clue right here in the in the middle the various complementary factors of production cannot come together spontaneously right you might have heard Oh Austrians think of markets as spontaneous spontaneous organizing systems I mean yeah there's I'm in a sense but but Mises is pointing out that production right the transformation of inputs into outputs it does not happen automatically or spontaneously outside of human agency right I mean all that you know the the magical device that you hold in your pocket think of what is inside it metal and plastic and glass and silicon and you know a lot of human labor went into this the design the production the assembly of course the marketing the distribution and so forth the software the runs this machine you know those things just didn't magically spring up from the ground and join themselves into a mobile device right somebody had to have the idea to do this somebody had to create a company or companies to bring this to fruition people had to go out and purchase factors of production and combine them and and try to sell them and of course you know we see the winners but many attempts to create devices like this fail okay so it's these actors these human actors who are going around creating goods and services and offering them to us the consumers for sale those are the persons who are driving the market process forward those are what Mises calls entrepreneurs okay so notice that entrepreneurship here is a very general feature of the market economy it pervades our understanding of the market it drives the whole market system it's not just about us a sec to the economy it's not just about startup companies but then once a company is established there's no role for entrepreneurship in that company it's not just about high-tech firms it's not just about small business or self-employment no it's a much more general feature of the market system so you probably know something already about the Austrian analysis of production this in fact is one of the great innovations of the Austrian school from the late 19th and early 20th centuries it's a part of it's a part of the Austrian tradition that has not been fully incorporated into mainstream economic analysis right I mean the whole idea of production in an Austrian view is tied up with this relationship between inputs and outputs or if you want to generalize between means and ends right I have an end of wanting to communicate with another person actually this is the old-fashioned way you do it this is the modern way that you guys do it right or you send a tik-tok to somebody or a snapchat or whatever that's I have some goal in mind right but I need to employ scarce means to accomplish that goal so for me as a consumer I've got to obtain a device and have a data plan and you know and so forth but before I can even do that entrepreneurs have got to create the infrastructure and create the technology and create the products and services that will allow people to satisfy their ends right for me as a consumer you know my end is the satisfaction that I obtain from doing whatever I want to do with the device for the entrepreneur the end is financial or other kinds of rewards right the entrepreneur is trying to produce a good or service that other people will want and be willing to pay for ok but we can also understand the the entrepreneur thinking in terms of means and ends right well you know nature doesn't give us I phones and Android devices and so forth nature gives us certain kinds of raw materials and we have the availability of human labour and so forth right so called originally factors of production have to then be transformed into machines and you know processed materials and other kinds of intermediate goods that entrepreneurs can then assemble into final goods okay the challenge is in contrast to the view one typically finds in a mainstream microeconomics text this process is not simple it's not straightforward it's not obvious there are lots and lots and lots of different ways you can combine these originally factors into intermediate goods and lots of ways you can combine the intermediate goods into final goods there's an almost infinite array of possible factor combinations that can be used to produce particular outputs let alone the fact that we've got to decide what outputs to produce right so this doesn't happen automatically and it's not a trivial process it's a it's a difficult and challenging and complicated process and the Austrian theory of capital is designed to conceptualize and refine and make sense of this complex production process karl menger sort of hinted at or provided the foundations for the Austrian theory of capital which were later elaborated in much more detail by people like mangers successor bamba verk also of course by Ludwig von Mises and to a large extent in Murray Rothbard man economy and state and maybe you've read Roger Garrison's books and writings that provide a more a very lucid exposition maybe you've probably seen the famous triangle diagram that originally comes from Hayek that explains the structure of production through time that's actually one of the innovations of the Austrian theory or I should say a distinctive feature of the Austrian theory that's mainly been lost and contemporary treatments is the idea that production does take time now you go from the left side of the triangle to the right Hayek had it from top to bottom but it's the same idea right production is not instantaneous which means that you know goods and services that are being produced and sold today are the result of many many decisions and actions that were taken when in the past right when the future was not yet known when future conditions had not yet materialized the Austrians were famous in their day and even today for developing the so-called theory of imputation which was described by karl menger you know the idea that the the the value of the materials that go into producing a good in service is determined by the value of that final good or service to consumers right the reason that the silicon and the glass and the metal and the plastic and the code and other things that go into these devices have command prices on factor markets is because the things that can be used to produce command are priced and have value on the final goods market and the Austrians developed a means for imputing you know figuring out how much of the final value is imputed to various intermediate goods and I'll talk about that in just a moment the concept of the marginal product of an input or the marginal revenue product of an input on the market but notice also that because production takes time production is also fraught with uncertainty right when these decisions in the past are made in anticipation of being able to produce goods and services in the future which can be sold to consumers those goods and services don't exist and the prices that they can command on the market are not yet known for sure right it's not that the decision maker in the past is not completely ignorant the decision maker can make educated guesses about what is likely to happen in the future but that's different from knowing for sure about something that's already happened right so you know when I'm buying if I'm an entrepreneur I'm buying factors in the factor market the marginal product of that factor the marginal revenue product of that factor those things are not known with certainty at that point they're just sort of estimated or anticipated because they're not realized until the future when my thing actually sells you know maybe nobody will want my thing it won't command any any won't have value to consumers I want to make any money from selling this thing so the actual monetary value of the factors that I bought is like almost you know zero or maybe very low I don't know that when I'm buying factors okay so it works like this what we call the discounted marginal revenue product of a factor or a service an input into production right is the amount of money revenue that can be attributed or imputed to one unit of that factor discounted by the interest rate or the social rate of time preference okay so holding constant the use of other factors if I add one more you know gram of silicon how much of a faster device or better device does that produce and how much more money can I make from selling that device compared to a less fancy device one that doesn't have that extra gram of silicon right so how much more of a device do I get from using one more unit of the factor times the price at which I can sell that unit that that device right tells me how much extra money I'm gonna get from hiring one more unit purchasing one more unit of that input right that's the marginal revenue product I have to discount it because if production takes time right and people have positive time preference right I've got to pay now to buy the factors but I only get the money in the future and so I might discount that by depending on time preference okay but the point is this this discounted marginal revenue product tells me the maximum that an entrepreneur would be willing to pay for one more unit of that factor I go out into the silicon market I don't suppose there's a market down the street you know wholesale there's a warehouse as when silicon in there Radek how much am I willing to pay for one more gram of that silicon well I think how much more stuff can I make with that one gram of silicon or how much better stuff and how much more money will I get from selling that that's the most I'd be willing to pay for that additional unit of the input because then I'll you know if if I can purchase that unit of an input for less than the additional revenue I'll get from selling the thing that I can make with that additional unit of input I'll have some money left over to put in my pocket right I don't want to pay more than the discounted marginal revenue product because that's going to reduce my total net receipts right then I'm paying out more than I'm eventually going to get back from employing one more unit of that factor now you can imagine you know if there's a situation where we have lots of entrepreneurs bidding against each other for the services of these factors of production and everybody knows what these factors of production will eventually be worth in terms of their discounted marginal revenue product you know then it's not likely to be the case that I can get factors on the cheap right of me the price of those units of silicon is going to be bid up to what they eventually will be worth to entrepreneurs from selling the devices in the market okay so that's why you know we say that what in sort of an equilibrium State the prices of factors of production are determined by their discounted marginal revenue products that's the Austrian notion of imputation there are certain technical exceptions depending on you know factors have to be used in precise combinations rather than where you can vary them and and so forth what does they have to do with entrepreneurship well again imagine a kind of equilibrium state like what Mises and rothbard called the evenly rotating economy that's a kind of imaginary situation an imaginary construct Mises would call it in which you know we have human action people are out there doing stuff and they're consuming and producing and exchanging and so forth but there's perfect knowledge about future conditions so their definition of the evenly rotating economy was the world in which there is no uncertainty about the future so when when I and my fellow entrepreneurs are out there trying to get silicon right everybody knows exactly how much consumers in the future will be willing to pay for mobile devices but use that silicon is there's no doubt whatsoever about what the actual discounted marginal revenue product of silicon or glass or plastic or metal or human labour labor or whatever will be worth everybody knows what those units of inputs will be worth okay what would that world look like what would be sort of the flow of funds or the distribution of income as they call it in a world like that well every owner of a factor somebody who owned silicon or each of us owning our own labor would be paid for the use of our inputs an amount exactly equal to the discounted marginal revenue product of that input for each unit that we offer on the market okay so workers get wages that are determined by their DM RPS and owners of factories get get payments for the use of their capital and and and and and and so forth according to DM RP and landowners get paid rents on their land equal to DM RP and so forth what if I'm an owner of a firm what if I'm an owner of an enterprise well I might you know there might be a little residual left over when I look at all my receipts and then I pay all my inputs there's a little residual left over you know for me you know it's kind of my wage my implicit wage for being the owner of the firm rather than working for somebody else so I get a little return on my labor okay if I'm also the owner of the property some of that return some of that net return is an interest payment for my willingness to let somebody you know to lift it to have my property be used for production this is boom ba works great inside against Marx right you know Marc said well workers don't get paid the full value of the output their labor produces bohm-bawerk said yeah that's because production takes time so the capitalist is paying today for goods and services that can only be produced and sold tomorrow right so when I pay a dollar today for somebody to produce $1 worth of output next year that dollar next year is only worth you know 90 cents okay so I'm not gonna pay a dollar to the worker I'm only gonna pay 90 cents I'm gonna discount the upfront payment if I only get the return to me in the future just because of time preference okay but the point is after that once all the workers and and capital owners and landowners have been paid their DM RPS after all business owners have gotten paid their implicit wages right after anyone who has lent out resources to be used in advance gets paid their interest interest return there's nothing left over right there's no residual because everybody knows exactly what factors of production are worth once the goods and services are produced in a world of no uncertainty they're all the only returns in the economy are payments to factors of production and interest payments now you think of the implicit wages kind of a wage there's nothing left over but wait we just said in reality when I'm out there in the silicon market trying to buy these Lilla grams of silicon I have an educated guess about what my product will be worth but I don't know for sure I might be wrong I might think oh I've got the coolest new gadget ever everybody will want one and be willing to pay you know a thousand bucks for my you know iPhone 12 plus xrg whatever in reality it might be people say you know might my iPhone 11 is good enough I don't really need that upgrade and I maybe I overestimate how much people will be willing to pay how many people will be willing to buy and so forth and then I mistakenly overpay for silicon I so that means I paid so many dollars for silicon I produced the stuff I sold it the revenues that I received are less even controlling for discounting than what I then what what I laid out so what happened to me I earned a loss I lost money or maybe I'm very clever and shrewd I'm the only one who correctly anticipated that consumers would be willing to pay some huge amount of money for this new gadget other entrepreneurs didn't recognize over fill ikonn was not actually bid up to what it's DM RP would later be revealed to be and so I was able to get it for less than the DM RP then what do I have to put in my in my pocket at the end of the day profit okay in other words outside the evenly rotating economy entrepreneurs are competing for the use of factors based on their knowledge and their beliefs and their bargaining skill and their shrewdness and other characteristics right you know in other words they have knowledge and beliefs about the present you know technological capabilities is it is it really possible from an engineering perspective to build this thing out of silicon and glass and plastic and metal and code and so forth you know what's what are the productive capabilities of my factory and is that is enough silicon available and will the appropriate computer code be you know will there be somebody who can write it and so forth I could be wrong about that right and I also have knowledge and beliefs about the future what consumers will be willing to buy but also you know what government regulators will do how my fellow entrepreneurs will react when I introduce my new gadget to the market while they try to match it or will they back off or whatever right so I have a lot of uncertainty about what future market conditions will be so the result of the fact that we're outside the evenly rotating economy that we're in a world in which uncertainty is present rather than absent means that we will have profits and losses right some entrepreneurs will have revenues that are in excess of their costs and have money left over to put in their pockets other entrepreneurs will find that their revenues fall short of their costs even accounting for discounting and implicit wages and so forth and they'll earn losses right with that that's the world that we observe you know companies like Apple and Samsung are very profitable because in part they were better than other companies anticipating the goods and services that consumers would be willing to to pay and how much people would be willing to pay and so forth and that's why you know blackberry and Nokia which were the dominant mobile handset providers in what the 1990s and early 2000s may be ancient history right they're gone I mean products are not in the market anymore even though at the time companies like Nokia and Blackberry they totally dominated the mobile handset market in the consumer goods consumer side for Nokia and the business side for blackberry right you know you give this idea you hear it from critics of the market Marxist types whatever while these big companies you know they're just so powerful they can do whatever they want they can Ram their products down the consumers throat they can under pay their workers and we've got to do something we've got to break them up we've got to regulate them we've got to control them what happened to these guys right I mean history is littered with the remains of these big dominant companies that were incorrect in their forward-looking assessments of what market market conditions would be and they failed they went bankrupt they earned losses well where other firms earned profits the point is you cannot explain profit and loss without reference to uncertainty uncertainty is the source of profit and loss in a market economy okay notice is totally different from neoclassical production theory which you get in your intro or intermediate micro courses with the production function or ISO quants and ISO cost curves and so forth that's a completely different way of thinking about production there's no there's no passage of time there's no uncertainty there's no heterogeneity of inputs with lots of different complex possible combinations of inputs it's kind of a it's really and I say this deliberately it's a trivial problem these models solve kind of toy problems I mean you might tell them but the calculus is hard yeah I mean it might be but essentially you know given all possible outputs given a set of inputs and possible input combinations for a known set of outputs you know optimized for most efficient use of factors and so forth I mean again if we knew all the inputs that were available if we knew all the ways that inputs could be combined if we knew what the outputs would be and we knew the prices the outputs would come on the market well we're not doing entrepreneurship anymore we're just solving math puzzles for fun okay here's a whole series of kind of you know technical problems oh sorry my slides messed up yeah you know everything's given and there's no passage of time there's no uncertainty there's Rothbart pointed out it's kind of a circular explanation for four factor prices and it's really looking at the wrong problem this is kind of the problem of the factory manager okay there's a great line in human action where Mises is talking about socialism and he's criticizing some economists who responded to his critique of the impossibility of economic calculon calculation under socialism by saying well under socialism you know you could just instruct the managers of the state-owned factories you know to equate marginal revenue and marginal cost just like the managers of capitalist factories do what would be the difference why wouldn't it work just as well and Mises points out is the great characteristically Mies Essien line he says these critics they see the economic problem from the perspective of the subaltern clerk okay sub subaltern clerk is like a low-level you know manager shop room director or whatever okay yeah you you you create all this stuff you create a factory and you design products and services and you have plans for what to do and stick me in the middle of the factory and tell me to you know move the workers around for maximum efficiency okay I could do that that is not the problem that a market economy solves right a market economy has to solve the problem of why is there even a factory there right what is the factory producing and why is it producing that thing and why are you producing it using these inputs and not some other inputs where did the resources come from where'd the capital come from to put this factory here what happens if it's not doing a good job does it get dissolved and reformed somewhere else in other words yeah under socialism you could have factories that produce stuff well you don't have under socialism is entrepreneurship okay you don't have entrepreneurs making decisions about what to produce and how to produce it responding and and earning profits or suffering losses as a result of their decisions okay so in a very broad sense we can conceptualize the entrepreneurial function we can conceptualize entrepreneurship as bearing uncertainty making decisions taking actions to produce stuff in the face of uncertainty Mises says it this way the term entrepreneur as used by economic theory means acting man exclusively seen from the aspect of the uncertainty inherent in every action okay action under uncertainty that is the notion that that is how we conceptualize entrepreneurship for Mises this important distinction we would have time to get into it this morning but you might want to look at what what Mises another Austrian economists mean by uncertainty Mises follows the conceptual distinction that was first outlined actually by his younger brother a statistician or probability theorist named richard von Mises distinguishing what they call case probability from class probability you could you could use frank knight's risk uncertainty distinction if you like I call that entrepreneurship in the broad sense because you know all of us as we go about our day are bearing some uncertainty we don't know for sure if the actions we take will bring about the results that we want so we might also think about it might be useful to think about entrepreneurship and a slightly narrower kind of commercial sense of commercial entrepreneurship is you know those this is the act of buying and selling factors of production combining factors of production and so forth in pursuit of a specific monetary gain trying to achieve money profit and avoid monetary loss the the german economist Ludwig Ludwig Lachman who taught and most spent most his career in south freaka before coming to the u.s. puts it very nicely in his book on capital he says we are living in a world of unexpected change unexpected change ie uncertainty hence capital combinations will be ever-changing will be dissolved and reformed in this activity we find the real function of the entrepreneur so the real function of the commercial entrepreneur is this constant combining Andry comp recombining of productive capital resources in pursuit of money profit and desiring to avoid money loss okay that's the real function of the entrepreneur that's what Mises means when he calls the entrepreneur the driving force of the market the the entrepreneurs primary tool is economic calculation and Professor Salerno has a lecture tomorrow I believe on socialism and calculation where he'll go into that in more in more detail the thing to keep in mind is that calculation or the calculation problem is not merely an issue related to socialism the concept of economic calculation was developed by Mises in his analysis of socialism but it's a much more general phenomenon okay which applies to all kinds of economic systems so in a lot of my own work on entrepreneurship I've used the term judgment to characterize how the entrepreneur makes these decisions or really what is the essence of the decision-making that the Entrepreneurship that the entrepreneur does you know if you like you can define judgment as something like decision making under uncertainty in the absence of some kind of a formal logical model or mathematical decision rule where you're just calculating putting numbers into a formula and it tells you what to do here's how Mises puts it the real entrepreneur is a speculator a man eager to utilize his opinion about the future structure of the market for business operations promising profits this specific anticipative understanding of the conditions of the uncertain future defies any rules and systematization it be neither taught nor learned the entrepreneur sees the past in the present as other people do but he judges the future in a different way okay so the entrepreneur is anticipating future market conditions right without kind of a a model that can be transferred that can be passed on to somebody else without a formal model that you can read about in a book and then just go and implement right it it involves intuition or call it gut instinct or what the Germans call for staying kind of a deep understanding of the world the deep understanding of market conditions how do you get it well you get it through experience some of it may be in born it may be manifest in different ways as we'll see but one thing that's particularly important here is enable to exercise judgment in the Mesa seein sense you have to have some ownership stake in the project at hand because they're just being a hired consultant who gets paid either an hourly wage or gets or gets paid if the venture is successful that's not being an entrepreneur in the Massassi and since you've got to have skin in the game to to exercise entrepreneurial judgment so there's a there's a close connection between judgment and ownership in the Massassi and understanding I've actually been thinking about this a lot I'm and I've working on a paper with several co-authors that I hope will be published sometime later this year where we we develop a concept we call ownership competence it's another way of thinking about when are entrepreneurs successful at exercising judgment when are they unsuccessful at exercising judgment under uncertainty one of the problems with the word judgment in English is that you know you can use it in a strictly formal sense the act of judging right to be engaged in judging is to exercise judgment you could judge the results of the you know a contest or you can judge future market conditions that's what the entrepreneur does but we also use the word the word judgment in English as a synonym for you know wisdom or or prudence we think of judgment as being at like a positive like somebody who's good at judging has good judgment okay whereas you know Mises is using the term judgment in the strictly neutral sense of the act of judging so it leaves open the question why are some people good at judging and other people are not so good at judging the future okay in other words to put it differently why are some resource owners quite good at arranging the factors of production they own and control in ways that generate profits whereas other owners are not as successful in doing so you know we could actually maybe dimensionalize this notion of competence the skill with which ownership or the skill with which judgment is exercised in two different different aspects and in this paper I'm working on we we distinguish between what we call matching competence governance competence and timing competence so matching competence is knowing you know what's what stuff what are you good at right I mean in which industries for which technologies in which markets for which kinds of factors do I tend to be skilled in figuring out future market conditions and putting that knowledge to use governance competence is okay given a project that I'm involved in am I good at extracting value from those resources am I good at coming up with the right combinations and and of course doing all the other things associated with ownership hiring people and monitoring employees and so forth timing competence is about you know getting it right on the market how do I know when to buy when to sell when to set up a firm or dissolve a firm or introduce a product or withdraw a product or revise a product or whatever and there might be some people who are particularly good say at matching competence and governance competence but not especially good at timing competence and we spin out some of these implications um you know where does it ultimately come from I don't know you know there's some some research evidence that the ability to exercise ownership competence to be competent at owning or to be good at you know exercising this intuitive decision-making it may be correlated with some other kind of capabilities article that I just saw the other day it's not yet published in a cognitive science journal suggests that there are certain tests you can give people that measure cognitive capacity which are good at predicting the extent to which they rely on intuitive thinking rather than sort of calculative thinking and so it may be that there are things we can identify that make particular people good at doing this also note that while ownership can be exercised in groups so you can have a partnership of entrepreneurs right or even a corporation as a partnership of many owner entrepreneurs many capitalist entrepreneurs it's probably the case that groups that are relatively homogeneous in terms of their interests are better at exercising judgment than very heterogeneous groups there's a important work by law professor at Yale and Henry hansman on the governance of cooperatives and corporations and proprietorships and partnerships and so forth where he makes this argument that homogeneity of interest among the ownership group is the primary determinant of the the competence of that ownership group I actually think and I've done some work on this myself this has some pretty strong implications for so-called stakeholder theories of the firm well it shouldn't be the shareholders who get to make all the decisions say these theories it should be you know workers should get to make be part of the governance of the firm or maybe suppliers or people who live in the community the firm should take into account the interests of a broad set of stakeholders rather than just the shareholders I think that the ownership competence perspective suggests that very heterogeneous stakeholder groups may be low in ownership competence and that may actually be a good reason to restrict decision-making to equity owners or shareholders rather than a broader set of stakeholders now I want to just add a little footnote here because some of you may have if you've done a lot of reading in the Austrian tradition you may have also heard the idea you might have heard the notion that entrepreneurship is closely connected to discovery entrepreneurs are people who discover the future better than other people there's a famous article by Hayek called competition as a discovery procedure I'll talk about this a little bit also tomorrow in my lecture on competition Hayek says competition is important primarily as a discovery procedure whereby entrepreneurs constantly search for unexploited opportunities that can also be taken advantage of by others so entrepreneurs are those who discover these profit opportunities before other people discover and are able to exploit them and this notion has been picked up in a number of very influential works by the Austrian economist Israel Kerzner who describes entrepreneurship as alertness to changing buying and selling possibilities or alertness to new information and potentially worthwhile goals hitherto unnoticed as well as toward unnoticed potentially valuable available resources the entrepreneur notices a price discrepancy before others do so in this version of this understanding the entrepreneurs role is to be alert to or to discover or to notice things more quickly than other people not to sort of create and build but rather to notice stuff that's already there before other people notice I mean there are a number of problems with this way of conceptualizing entrepreneurship I mean the first and most obvious is that the way I read Mises and other Austrians entrepreneurs don't discover things they create things they're making things that otherwise wouldn't exist not merely being the first to notice things that would exist anyway in other words the notion of discovery or noticing is kind of you know it's sort of backward looking rather than forward looking and I think the forward-looking entrepreneurs are trying to judge the future not look for things that already exist in the present even the whole notion of opportunity is really just metaphorical right it's not that Steve Jobs and his colleagues at Apple discovered the iPhone before somebody else came along and discovered it no I mean there never would have been an iPhone if it were not for the actions undertaken by specific entrepreneur there really isn't an opera there aren't profit opportunities sitting around waiting to be noticed right rather entrepreneurs are creating products and services under uncertainty in anticipation of future profits and hoping to avoid losses and sometimes they're successful and sometime sometimes they aren't which leads to the problem of profit and loss I mean if if entrepreneurship is noticing or discovering profit opportunities before other people then how do you ever lose money how do you explain nokia or blackberry right if entrepreneurship is discovery the worst that can happen to you is you fail to discover an opportunity that somebody else comes along and discovers but then you're just like you break even yours it's neutral all right how do you ever lose money how do you explain accounting losses in a discovery approach to entrepreneurship I don't think you really can and also as I've explained already I think under uncertainty you really need you really needed a concept of ownership but entrepreneurship has entrepreneur's have to own capital to be able to participate in the entrepreneurial process now let me just elaborate on that last point before before we wrap it up some people have defended the discovery view by saying well yeah in reality entrepreneurs are also capitalists in reality you have what Mises in Rothbard called the capitalist entrepreneur as an important agent in the economy but theoretically abstractly we could imagine a pure entrepreneur who does not make stuff and build things and owned factories but just sort of sort of floats around and discovers things and they often quote they point to this one particular passage from Mises on in human action page 254 let us strut this ramiz this means it says let us try to think the imaginary construction the imaginary construction of a pure entrepreneur to its ultimate logical consequence consequences this entrepreneur does not own any capital the capital required for his entrepreneurial activities is lent to him by the capitalists you know specialized moneylenders in the form of money loans if he succeeds if the entrepreneur succeeds this pure entrepreneur the net profit is his if he thought if he fails the loss must fall on the capitalists I'm sorry who have lent hav e who have lent him the funds so this is what Kirchner and his colleagues called the pure entrepreneur in Mises system and they go on to elaborate a theory of entrepreneurship based on this notion of the pure entrepreneur however if you go to page 2 to 54 of human action and you keep reading a couple of sentences later you find the following the same page Mises says such an entrepreneur would in fact be an employee of the capitalists who speculates on their account and takes a hundred percent share in the net profits without be concerned about the losses in other words this what Mises momentarily for like 10 seconds calls the pure entrepreneur it's really kind of a consultant it's like somebody you hire hey hey go out there and look at the landscape and see if you can see something that I should be doing that I'm not currently doing if I take your advice and make money I'm gonna pay you your honor like consent contingency fee I'll pay you if I can make money off your idea otherwise I won't pay you okay that person is not really performing the entrepreneurial function the entrepreneurial function is being performed by the capitalist entrepreneur who makes the decision to hire this consultant or not or some other consultant the person who makes the decision whether to follow the consultants advice or not or maybe get rid of this consultant and not use a consultant at all or get another consultant that's the entrepreneurial function okay so Mises momentarily thinks about could you imagine a pure entrepreneur doing this he says no that really wouldn't be an entrepreneur okay a capitalist is always also virtually an entrepreneur and speculator I think what it means by virtually is under uncertainty you cannot be an entrepreneur without also being a capitalist you can also cannot also be a capitalist without being an entrepreneur if you don't believe me watch the famous scene in Fargo the Coen Brothers movie Fargo where Jerry the protagonist goes to try to get a loan from his rich father-in-law Wade and then they argue the conditions of the deal just just Google it's my deal Wade it's my deal here Wade on YouTube watch that scene and you will see the difference between a capitalist entrepreneur and a speculator okay sorry a hired consultant who speculates so to wrap up you know the fact that there's so much interest among the mainstream in entrepreneurship kehna provides a nice opportunity for austrians okay there's been a lot of growth in entrepreneurship research and education in the mainstream university setting and most entrepreneurship scholars are pretty sympathetic to Austrian economics or at least not hostile to it as you might find in economics departments and so I think there's there's fertile ground for research in Austrian economics that is framed as as research in entrepreneurship okay something for you guys to think about even if you don't identify as an entrepreneurship specialist you might be able to do your analysis of capital production interest labor market equilibrium whatever in terms of in terms of entrepreneurship you know so the mainstream literature still struggles with what entrepreneurship is is it self-employment or new venture formation I think this notion the general notion of entrepreneurship as uncertainty bearing in a world of complexity and so forth is a good way to solve that problem there's a lot of research on why some entrepreneurial firms perform better how does entrepreneurship link to overall economic growth what should be public policy towards entrepreneurship I think an Austrian take on entrepreneurship provides a lot of valuable insight on all of those questions thank you you

#FFXIV: Still need to grind BLU? Use these spots!
Been ignoring the 6.4 Blue Mage Update  because you're not a fan of grind? Think   the idea is super neat but don't want to take  all that time to level to 80? There's a quick   way to solve your issue! Grab a level 90  Player, if possible learn Flying Sardine   from these birds in Costa del Sol, and head  to one of several high level farming spots!   To get credit for kills, do not join a party  together. Instead you want to stay separate. First   you throw a fish at your target, then the other  player blows it up instantly with their level 90   powers. Doing this on super high level enemies  will be huge exp to a level one Blue Mage.   Here's a bunch of places you can try to farm. The  beach in Kholusia is a good spot up to level 70 if   you've only just gotten into Shadowbringers.  If you're decently in and have reached the   sixth area, these caves to the northwest have a  decent spawn of Benthos going around the loop.   But the best spots are if you are in  Endwalker. Labyrinthos has this cave   with tons of Sankchinni. This place can easily  get you to level 80. If this place is taken up,   you can try to the Northwest. Or head to  Thavnair and kill turtles outside of town.   Please Subscribe for more advice  about stuff like if you've

I Changed My Mind @ Secret Lairs in Magic the Gathering Reprints
hey guys so today I am gonna talk about the winter super drop 2023 the bundle is slightly less than 400 in any bundle you get the foil uh bundle and the non-foil bundle so if you wanted to buy the foil itself it would be 247 dollars and the non-foil bundle would only be 152 dollars so I'm just gonna name some of the cards that are reprinted and it's very good I don't dislike secret layers as much as some people do alpha Investments I think it is a very cheap way to get cards that are expensive are harder to get it's a direct to Consumer reprint and technically speaking the more repent prints the better because the more copies of a card that exist even if it does have different artwork or looks slightly different the the Beller so we got the braid of fire cough Master of the wild Hunt in kafiris Tyrant of John not that's not really for me I don't really like the artwork or the characters the next one is the Japanese themed it is sakasha the Imposter I mean that guy is very expensive before the reprint I don't know how many times have been reprinted but I remember when it was just when I was playing EDH it was a very expensive Commander MasterCard girl we have Paradise mantle which kind of doesn't really fit in a July loss but seeking obviously she has been reprinted a few times but she does have a new anime artwork and Tesla carvak which is a pretty interesting artwork definitely a you know art style that I like then we have adrazi conscription deafening silence again this artwork is not for me we have counterbalance counterbalance is expensive now and we have Bruno so a artifact enchantment not a artifact enchantment themed I don't particularly like the artwork on any of them so I would probably pass on that I would definitely pick up the the Japanese version the Japanese with uh sakasa the Imposter new forexia we have the blighted agent uh it looks like we got post Malone looks like post Malone's card already got reprinted oh yikes Glacier elf uh Bader skull and the ink moff Nexus I believe sorry I don't actually their names are in forexia I like I said hey I'm not a fan of cards I cannot read uh that could be cards in a different language or I guess forexia is a different language I'm not a fan of that you know I I just can't imagine I I it's just so annoying like the post Malone card I don't know actually what it does oh you're kind of at the emergency now you can check it out and it's just I like to read my cards I know that's kind of Novel for many people but that's me next we have a bunch of snakes we have Lotus Cobra hex drinker ice fan Koto the um anointed that card used to be pricey the art Orca that is a little crazy Stone coil sharp and yeah price card used to be pricey as well it's um not for me I could see how some people who like snakes would buy it and then lastly we have the binder collection which is like the you know the binders that your your uh female friend would have in like kindergarten like I forget what it's called it's like Lisa or something Lisa wheel or something you know there's like unicorn binders so we have alms collector crested Sun mayor gorg claw Tara are called stemma rain in sepi inseparable and exotic Orchard for like the 18th millionth time so you get all those cards again not for me I I would definitely pick up the Japanese set I'm trying to figure out the name of that set is that set looks pretty good in my opinion um let me go ahead and actually give you the name of this set foil effects stimulated okay thank you for telling me that wizard of coast didn't really need you to tell me but okay yeah so the winter super drop I think this is kind of a new way to really buy Cards you just buy the ones that you want and they sell it to you and I do believe like Amazon is their vehicle to sell boxes and packs direct to consumer like bundles and things of that nature which makes sense so as long as you know it's one thing uh if you watch a video from five years ago I said that you have to kind of adapt with like Define you can't just assume that all EDH cards a lot of EDH cards are not reserveless the reprints they will reprint everything to the ground we're going to get quadruple Masters soon because double Masters it wasn't enough anything that is not tied down will be sold that is how I that's how I said it back in the day and you just have to like enjoy so if you like I actually will probably pick up the what is it um it's not called fraction favorites profit predicted no that's not called that it's all the way in the bottom for some reason I don't know City Style so the CD style foil is 40 I don't really need that the city style non-foil is thirty dollars I'll probably go over the non-foils um and this is another very interesting thing the I don't really give a premium to foils anymore because a collector's edition and secret layers there's not that much of a difference you know I don't actually like foils I know that they are expensive and they're rare so outside of the fact that like it's kind of cool to show off they do damage easier easier they get glossy over time especially the older ones they're harder to take care of they're easier to they're harder to sell so if you ever have sold a high-end foil like a tainted pack which I have one of those it is like nearly impossible to sell something like that because you're not going to agree on condition you're just simply not going to agree on condition and how much does a tainted pack foil 550 dollars huh wow I think I paid 800 for mine no did I pay 800 for mine okay oh I got a heart attack uh that was the non-foil I was like what six dollars okay so mine is kind of like a near Mid so 400 so oh I probably overpaid for mine I don't think I paid 800 but I definitely overpaid because I really wanted it yo I just love old school foils but back to my point you do have to change how you buy so like you can't just be like oh I hate secret layers I'm never going to buy one of those no you got to look at it see if there's any that you like do you want to save money get things super drop like this is just the game now the game is you buy directly from Wizard of their Coast like Amazon you cannot compete with Amazon prices and the secret layers are essentially them selling singles through their customer base which is exactly what they I this is the secondary the secondary market for a lot of cards is zero because at any given time there can be a secret layer and the card is not oh we had to pick a random booster pack or a booster box or it's super obvious you just paid 30 and you get the five cards that are listed and maybe you get a bonus card as well this isn't like difficult to understand they are selling singles via secret layers and they're selling booster boxes for your Amazon that kind of cut off the middleman and honestly like they do a very good job I know that they pretend that they don't realize the secondary Market exist but it does and they their price is exactly around what you would be con and maybe they give you 50 value if you were to buy these single cards alone without the special foiling and the special artwork they would just be whatever the original versions would be or the cheapest version I'm not really that upset at the artwork anymore like it's just okay I remember seeing the strix Haven what is called faithless looting and I saw that artwork and I thought that was like I thought that was very bad and I was very you know I was like oh this is really bad this is a terrible art direction now it is what it is right like you just have to accept this is the quality of magic going forward there'll be a lot of digital artwork uh there will be a lot less you know Teresa Nielsen and more just AI I wouldn't be surprised if they just had AI design it because then they wouldn't have to get into battles or artists all the time right yeah I would just would design all the artwork for them and they would save money I honestly would not put it past them if they had AI designed the cards for us and then they sowed it to us as a video like a human did it because I think that's where it like wasted a coach seems like a company that would be 100 for that anyway let me know in the comments below do you guys like these sets uh if you do which ones are you planning to buy and do you like secret layers in general I'm you know I used to hate them it's just part of life now as a magic player

moment it's indeed my pleasure to welcome Jennifer so that's how I know you you know how it is where you're you're on the internet and then we practically forget your government name yes that's true because you have created such beautiful work and people become I don't know taken by the art that's exactly how I like to put it it is indeed a pleasure having you here thank you so much you look well you're aging well yes I remember you from I need to know you have you've had a career run so talking about your Sublime career you have now created another Blockbuster A Tribe Called called Judah yes tell us about it A Tribe Called Judah is so special to me because it's in memory of my late's mom she passed on February this year and before she passed on I I had written the story but I didn't know she was going to pass on and while acting you know I I could feel her presence I acted like my mom in the film can you imagine and imag all the emotions before she passed on you could see it in the movie and she passed on so it's so special to and it wasn't in anticipation of her passing no no no while while while I wrote it yeah yes but way she passed on was when I filmed it after her passing on I filmed it so I could feel a presence in it and it really shows the mother love the mother's love I mean cuz my mom she can do anything for her children you know she raised us well we went to the best schools she's a single parent and A Tribe Called Judi celebrating single parents the mothers out there that struggle so hard to take care of their children you know a lot of women are judged especially the ones that have children from different men so A Tribe Called Judah features jadida that's I play jadida Judah she has five boys from five different men from five different tribes wow what a story like you can't imagine so people would be like oh she's being around the world well if you put it like that you know but you don't know the story you don't know how she got into this you know everybody has got a backstory we just have to you know love people celebrate them encourage them that's what a tribe called Judi is all about and raise your children well because if you do not raise them well there's a repercussion for it you know hearing you talk about another story you've created many stories you're known for the stories that you tell what would you in your view regard as your personal Milestones I mean we think we know what your Milestones are but you alone would know it differently okay well the turnaround the event you know the landmark things that make things turn around for me majorly is um evolving the Jennifer brand you know we started out with um the first Jennifer The Village y that came into Lagos and wanted to be a big girl big skill that's how Jennifer calls it then we moved on to um The Return of Geneva you understand we have the trilogy and now we came up with the TV show that's um Jennifer's diary so the fact that I could be I could able to work on that brand let the brand evolve and you know touch lives touch issues affecting young people out there everybody the family you know I prer solution that actually changed everything for me you know it made me realize that this is a big deal you are you a vessel being used to tell the African stories you know to shed more light on issues affecting the lives of young people especially what's the inspiration behind Jennifer I think I find that one to be funny but of course I don't miss the stories you're trying to tell but I wonder whether there's something else there that I don't see besides the comedy okay the inspiration behind Jennifer the brand is um we have lots of Jennifers out there we have lots of young people out there females especially that you know they get carried away when you know when you send them to school when they start a project they get carried away so that's why I brought in the character you know I want you to laugh I want you to see this character that okay she's funny she's got dreams she's got aspirations but along the line she gets carried away so when you see this kind of person you see the mistakes she takes she makes her mean and you you try your best not to make such mistakes so that's the inspiration behind Jennifer it's very interesting to see how long you've been in this industry I for one share this memory from the memory of you from I need to know and you've been here for so long I'm just curious as to what's your staying power as consistency you know stay you know a lot of people say that like I don't even know what it means at this point oh my sister let me tell you it's very important when you say consistency you just you don't just stay you don't just say it you do it you take the Bold step you how do you stay consistent like now you come in and you they call you okay comes you have to interview from today and you're very tired you understand you're very tired and you look at the time okay I'm supposed to interview from okay around 4:00 p.m. and you the tiredness starts from 10: a.m. in the morning you just set your alarm try to sleep for for 2 hours turn off your phone or put the phone aside you have to be disciplined sacrifice yes sacrifice discipline consistency you have to come and do it there's nothing like I am tired there's nothing like Oh I thought today is my day of if you want to you you can you can be successful but you you can be outstandingly successful if you're very consistent if you're disciplined if you're focused so that is what keeps me going I remember where I'm coming from I don't want to go back to no no I want to keep moving on you know I want to empower a lot of people so I stay focused what are some of uh you know success often comes with its own pressures and you are successful we don't see your pressures you don't appear to have pressures so disappoint me tell me you have some of course dar I do I'm human okay for me the the the the pressure is you know you just have to keep doing it right you know I I I actually push myself to write the stories well you know when you when you see a tribe called you that you be like where did she get the story from oh all my days from bachel bua Street to this from moretto to this what is happening so I push myself I sleep and eat my work even when I'm in a shower you know as I'm scrubbing I'm thinking about it so de should not walk in I think you should just honk and the wife comes to open the door yes that is what I do for a living so I push myself to do but there are times I get tired my sister and I leave everything I take a walk take aak I go on holidays I sleep well I'll tell you do not wake me up I have to sleep and when challenges come you just have to do your best to surpass them you don't stay put and let the challenges swallow you up they're bound to come so you have to keep moving do you have a source from where you draw inspiration Source I want to be is it a person be the major the major thing is for me is things happening around me you know I'm very very attentive I'm very observant so things happening around me I draw Inspirations from them you look successful you smell it but I want to talk about the failures have you ever failed of course oh well let's talk about that because you know not like I'm really curious as to your failures but you know many times when we see successful women particularly women who make success look easy we assume that they haven't failed so you would really really be encouraging people if you have something to tell okay for me if you don't fail you can't be successful you have to keep trying you have to keep trying like when a child is trying to walk the child will work small and just fall off you know so it's normal for you to fall but you just have to pick yourself and rise again for me I see failure I see challenges I see obstacles as part of life my mom raised me like that yeah like my mom would say if you do not fail if you do not fall you cannot succeed so you have to keep going and not says I do not even see the failure if you ask me now can you tell me one failure I don't see it as a failure no maybe my personal life is yes but personal life you know marriage stuff I just I just take it as it comes yeah my mental health is very important my career is very important darling I have to make an impact I have to empower a lot of people I have to inspire young people out there I have to stay strong for my children my siblings why am I leaving I have a purpose so my head is up yes I Cry yes I break down but I I just clim the tears look into the mirror keep moving yeah so that's it for me the industry has the industry been kind to you because you sound dogged but I know that there are some women who have complained about the obstacles they encounter in the industry do you have any tale that may be similar something you think is worth telling oh yes when I started my career to get to this stage was pretty difficult to get a role was pretty sexist thing oh no no no no no I didn't I didn't know it wasn't a sexist thing I'm talking about when I started as an actress you know attending auditions and you know trying to get a break no nose I got a lot of nose I can't even count the nose it was just one yes that pushed me up here I started and that yes was with I need to know I attended auditions I would read so well and at the end of the day I'm just an extra in a party scene yeah because it wasn't time for me yet and I'll get home I'll cry my mom would tell me my little mom would tell me just keep doing it clean your tears go move move move but to those that don't have moms there that's why I'm here now to tell you that you can do it you understand if you don't have people that can tell you can do for me to be seated here today to wear this tribe called Judah t-shirt to have Blockbuster to be the highest gross in filmmaker I think you can also do it so that's encourage I just I just I just keep moving you understand so the challenges came then I didn't get the rols I cried I broke down but one yes got me there I need to know roll now take note after the I need to know R I thought I was made you know okay after this BC I'm going to be called for r no I went back to zero level I didn't get rolles no one they didn't call me for big rolles I went back to auditions again yes after being paid well after being featuring I need to know United Nation project and I went back playing two scenes three scenes and boom that day came I picked up my script and said you have to make yourself the star I started looking for money to produce my mom we started going everywhere we got the font I produced my first film oala the 13th day and here I am today so as a female yes I had challenges as a filmmaker but the challenges of competitors or people that don't want you to get there or the male that feel oh you're a female I don't see them I just stay focused and do my thing you have quite a vision we're off on a break we'll be right [Music] back my name's Joyce you're still on the spotlight and our guest is fun fun a u Jennifer that's what I would love to call her um you pardon me if I saw you on the highway and said Jennifer no it's fine they call me Jennifer I love it everybody calls me Jennifer I've seen a video of you and your sons I think you were on holiday how are your sons they're fine big boys now I can see where your money is going tell us a little bit about your sons you know like I think um as a new mom I can't even can I call you a new mom no yeah because you have soldiers you have soldiers you have men for children but tell us what being a mom is like when you have to compare like being a mom and working and being being in the spotlight like oh being a mom is sweet is wonderful having those Cuties welcome you back from work hugging you kissing youing at night at night wanting to be your bed not want to go to their room they don't stress you those ninjas they do they do they run around they roll the Ki it's fun it's fun and juggling work with motherhood it's pretty his sweets his mix feelings you know you just have to do it it doesn't stop life keeps going on but I want to say big thank you to my siblings um to their aunties their nannies wonderful people you know they've been there for me all this while so if I have a big workload you know they my siblings step in to take care of them with the nannies so well fine everybody's doing well and I can balance I'm trying when did you start writing oh when I start writing I think um from Secondary School from way back yeah from way back from way back a lot long time ago you write you produce you're an actress act and I'm self-taught you know you are yes I studied law so writing acting entertainment is just in my blood I actually studied law because my father wanted wanted me to be a lawyer I wanted to do entertainment my dad would be like you would still study that law I want to be a lawyer so I did law cuz my dad but entertainment is in me I love everything about entertainment you know I love Arts it's it's something I eat and sleep it's brilliant that you say selftaught because I think there many young people out there who are looking for how to learn how to become something that they admire and I wonder whether they can teach themselves if they take it seriously enough just the way you've done I mean you went to law school got done with that and you're like well this is who I want to be and here I'm going to labor in the art and that's what you've done yeah and you're here today yes yes it's it's it's very important to know what you want for yourself you know and if you don't know it's not everybody that knows what they want to do and that's why people like us we are there you know we can help you we can help you discover your talent nurture it I have the Jennifer foundation and there we help young people to nurture their talent you know we bring them on board we train them you know we start them up with what they want to become we help them to this over their talent you know I I don't like seeing people young you the youth hanging around being Idol a lot of them see me as a disciplinarian Auntie's so tough she's a workaholic she will make you do it she will drive you well it's good to be focused it's good to be useful to do something good for yourself it will tell it will help you you know they say the JZ the budies they don't want to stress like um there's somebody working with me and she like I think the workload is getting too much I be like h you just started girl you know get to do it yes it's good to to relax you know but you have to stay focused you have to know what you want for yourself you have to empower yourself that's what I try to do with the young people out there I'm selftaught I love to write I love to act i i supervise all departments for a tribe called Jud battle on Booka street I'm the production designer I write I act I direct I produce it's just a game and I love to do it but I have professionals on set I work with the best hands I work with the best hands I work with a codor don't forget because I'm acting yeah I worked with um ad that's Captain dexi this time around on I Tribe Called J that and we give it the best you would love it when you see it I would love to see it you know the more I hear you talk the more I wonder what are your principles values you've done this for so long um I I'm persuaded to believe that a handful of people hold your as a Model A format that they can follow a principle that they can pattern themselves by but I'm asking you what are your own values your principles what are the things that have kept you fixed so focused that you have maintained your success okay you can be like I said earlier on you can be successful but do you want to be outstandingly S successful do you want to stand out do you want people to be chewing your in their mouth you want to be like how are you doing then you have to give it your all we keep saying I give it my all I give it my all you have to forget the nails when you're doing the dirty job you have to forget the pretty looks when you see me I can share some behind the scenes pictures you be like oh my god oh you don't look it you don't look this right now you're looking so glammed up right now you have to do the dirty job you have to do it well you know you own the story you own the vision you can you can only get people to do it for you but you must stay focused you must let them know that this is what you have you want to do so for me the major thing that keeps me going like I said earlier on is consistency yeah discipline discipline is key what are your aspirations for the future I want to keep empowering people I want to keep nurturing talents help them to develop their talents you sound like a mom at this point oh yes I have the Jennifer Foundation I have the school of drama oh you true tell yes yes it's it's it used to be SE one school of drama but we have the fun Network now so um so it's more like the fan School of drama where we bring in young people you know even if you're not young if you're older you can come join us if you believe you have a talent if you believe I want to get into the entertainment the creative industry I want to learn how film is being made

must be oby is coming back a new season so we have lots of project to work what a number of feathers to your hat really but talking about feathers to your hat politics uh that was quite a move so I'm curious to find out did you always have a political ambition okay I think what I I've always had is leading oh you know being a leader directing people on the right path I'm human yes but I have the gift of putting them on the right path you know some of my friends way back there say you're so domineering oh you're so domineering so I can be I a good leader I know what it takes to lead you know and I have the qualities so for politics for me I just see it as what I've been doing for years I've had the business the company for close to 20 years and I've been in industry for over 25 years and this is what I've been doing on a small scale empowering young people like I said we have the foundation where we're bringing people we train them you know I've been doing this on a small scale and you thought politics I'm so passionate about children women okay women out there a lot of them are just laying fallow they Idol you know we need to do something about them you see so women if they don't see their husbands they can't fend for themselves we need to help them a lot of them have talents they have businesses they can start up with they don't have the funds we must come to their aid you understand our children our young adults what are we doing about them the youths are just laying follow they're into drugs you see them on the streets We complain about area boys why don't we get them in and train them properly so they can add value to the country so that is why I went into politics I did it on a small scale I'm ready to be a subordinate to my principal to help the women I'm going in there for the women and children but yes we didn't get in there this is just a start better days ahead yes you are going to go back again oh yes I'm studying I'm under studying I want to do it right okay okay well I'm looking forward to you being a vice president amen and I wish you well it's really been enjoyable sharing your presence this afternoon and hearing you talk about your Venture Ventures and of course A Tribe Called Judah you've told us to expect laughter and tears yes and I would say uh the art that's fun aind has been a pleasure again really having you thank you very much for your time thank you so much thank you we have been speaking with fun aind I hope you have enjoyed the chat as much as I have keep your eyes on the spotlight my name's Joyce more stars

jump rope video but I like using the treadmill from a cardio and it does not work it's so annoying it's like we're a pair of money so we should get something that's working and it's very frustrating because I genuinely I miss it I like to walk on a treadmill I'm not happy with no membership when there's a gym down here but it's already included in the rent it's time for me to have my flat girl

Blood Bowl 2 - Here I go again - Game 3 - High Elves vs. Dark Elves
hello everybody welcome to give number three of here i go again dakka dakka up tv oh it's hit breed um this time he's not naming his players offensively so that's good i guess he's decent a blood ball which is you know disappointing rather have somebody terrible but at least he doesn't get a wizard and there's a couple of blodgers in a guarder so there's some things he doesn't really get anything for 110 does he an apple i mean maybe he's already got an apple does he already have an apple he's already got an apple an extra re-roll an extra re-roll i guess i guess an extra re-roll that's what i'd that's what i do i guess he could just buy a bench but surely the reroll's better you could just get like a merc lino couldn't he merkel i know i'll re-roll or two babes two babes is pretty crap i'd rather go a merc line over two babes sword flicky were hey thank you very much goliath staying fantastic for 33 glorious months staying fantastic for a long time eight eight whole fever pregnancies yeah and a little bit and a little bit more for everyone's doing this defense now aren't they or a variation of it somehow i know it's dior dior was doing it good old i guess object carries the ball [Applause] let's see on seven six [Applause] a little quick [Music] might get an extra hit [Applause] this is a pal and if this is a power and he can go in there and get an extra block for which gets a turnover in the pushes well that was worth it wasn't it four that was brilliant thank god thank god i did that that was amazing now i've got no reroll for the pickup which i'll go for anyway maybe lose the game yeah he went the reroll wow it was nice getting the extra extra hit even though all it did was burn a reroll never mind could have been good [Applause] it was a bit risky to be fair maybe i shouldn't have even gone for it but it's the content isn't it it's all about the content and i wish i could play belch it's kind of crazy that i've always preferred bash and now it just never works it literally never works sad do you have any skills hey good old help [Music] ugh [Applause] you can go in there just so you don't [ __ ] die [Applause] lack of penetration he has you i mean it's not a good metric like it's so easy to like win or not win challenges like obviously somebody who's won chalice is more likely to be a better player than someone who's never qualified but you know it's what is a good metric not nothing really just the eye test the eye test is the only thing really i think [Applause] like things all help a little bit don't they but things help like various stats help of his it's all bollocks at the end of the day hey exactly exactly [Laughter] yes mindy yes yeah that's that's pretty good count how many big schools they have [Applause] maybe i should have blitzed him i just want to stand him up i want to dodge him there but it's just stupid isn't it but it's better it's definitely better to be stood there why does it make you too do chia fights shouldn't it make you do the dodge instead of the two gfis it's just better isn't it that's quite that feels that looks quite a lot better to me than just standing there maybe it's better to just stay where he is even no maybe just exactly where he is going down the sides pretty [ __ ] against a [ __ ] witch okay oh yeah there's actually there's actually one tree of course there's one true measure of coaching skill and it's that not not not that obviously i just did perts not not that one obviously well that one that's the one look bt factor it's the only thing that matters [Applause] foreign unfortunately sorry sorry to break it to you buddy you're just not that good [Applause] ah infinite infinite gym shards a certain amount of bits might make it happen but uh certainly not gym shots but the bt factor is too high to risk on mia on mira [Music] on mia jim shards look how [ __ ] a normal offense is it's so wank i could have been daring i could have been daca ring he finally gets the hit on the catcher that he wanted bastard that dub school was [ __ ] wasn't it don't worry he hasn't used because he's elves and there was i could have feasibly beat him up right i've got a guard i've got blodge he hasn't could have potentially beaten him up also he's got richelle for search i was quite happy just playing properly [Applause] [Music] ah nice what a bat what a glorious bat shame about the uh [Applause] yeah the fault force thing i can't see coming back i know i know it was popular and people want it back but um the commissions will be starting soon honestly honestly yeah he got he got pissed off for this he stopped it which is fair enough right i'm not gonna i'm not gonna ban him against his will you could lemon but there's a massive backlog and no sign of me starting anytime soon but i mean i am going to start as soon as i can i've got i've got i've got some fumble ones to do first because i feel like i should do those you know seeing us they'll get used for something well maybe the picture of johnny five and skuro will get used for something as well but you know what i mean [Music] [Applause] brilliant brilliant brilliant [Applause] flip me guys screw up in fact five yeah yeah the other the other g5 in school is gonna be more disturbing i don't want it as a command team until like it was a bit mean wasn't it so like it was funny don't get me wrong it was funny i'm not gonna not laugh at it but it was a bit but it was i mean it definitely was a bit mean so it's only double skulls that [ __ ] us i can just blitz with a ball no no big what amazing i mean it was a little bit factual but it was also a bit mean wasn't it look at this this best move ever here i'll say that it's gonna be pretty sick if it works four cheetah reno is pretty much 99 percent [Music] what did he say um he was a bit he was a bit rude to mr page you can see it in the clips on my discard like it was hilarious but it wasn't nice so i think it's okay to chuckle at it but probably not a good idea to have it as a voice command continuously [Applause] [Music] oh i don't like this gfi that smacks of uh i learnt on the internet to do do elf screens did not like that do i not like that my blockless block unbelievable i mean it was it was funny wasn't it well yes i mean okay but the point is he learnt it and then thinks i've got to do it because that was a weird like it was weird doing it before the other things like it's it's all k12 screen isn't it but he had other things to do and if he wanted 36 is that he's in a lot of trouble laughs don't quad school here please or even dubschool oh i should have moved that guy stupidity oh and these guys are too fun i guess it's not terrible um no [ __ ] rewards always in range aren't you as elves always in range [Laughter] it's not collusion by the way not collusion by the way i didn't ask help anything twelve eleven ten nine twelve eleven ten nine eight twelve eleven ten nine eight yeah eight so it's a gf and he's gotta cover the whole the whole look for the pitch hasn't he which is not easy [Applause] ah [Applause] help me in my humble opinion one of the best commentators that i've ever heard in my life [Music] that was disappointing he's got to follow hasn't he felt okay but even that doesn't matter i'm just going to push anyway like wouldn't it matter if he made that he's not doing anything [Music] i guess i could just blitz him and then hand it off to him and then gfi one two three four five six seven gfi gfi one two three four five six seven eight nine gfi so there's less rolls by handing after the catcher oh it's the same right this is a one in 36 and two gfi's and this is a one in 36 and then two gfi's that would have been two gfi's so i guess that would be the best of blitz team who would i rather i'd rather score on the catcher i guess we're gonna get in touch um [Applause] funny thing is if i've done the right play of just blitzing him it would have been a hand it would have been two two pluses harder score it was funny it was funny just going entirely around his [ __ ] l screen movement nine but never mind i am one offset against a witch off maybe not so out bashed defended team deleted probably i could just concede couldn't could just concede save half an hour whoo fantastic yeah thompson is the nurgle and chaos just lost continuously it's the fifth team actually sting plenty in the tank just keep conceded i love conceding me that could still be a win it could still easily be a win [Applause] it is yeah abandoned if you want to be part of team positive then uh you've got to [ __ ] suck it up stop bitching like give me one and try and [ __ ] play that might go to uh you know jimmy zomtastic right yeah i quite like the idea of doing the zone zone's early season have got to be like a sick one ah [Applause] two men down i didn't remember anyone did last chance do you do what you do when you just mend down you just get banned it's bad it's hard against elves when you don't move any pretty easy one you do well i can just concede [Music] i'd love to kill people seems pretty amazing [Music] i can see people do it against me [ __ ] off jesus i guess yeah it just gets in the way just gets in the way doesn't it [ __ ] [Applause] it's good it's good not having any it's good shave and can just shave the whole head all in one door absolutely brilliant she's the same razor well like you know electric crazy and just do the whole head fantastic yeah i don't blame you being a little bit aroused fiction that's that's understandable hey that's how you get kills that's how you get kills just wait for your opponent to remove their own players yep yep that sounds about right [Applause] it's as good as nick get the blitz there to get him out bish bosh bash doesn't get him out amazing why didn't i take the ball down because it didn't get him out because i'm [ __ ] [ __ ] that's why absolutely [ __ ] [Music] he's got no plans no tom schnez no he's not he's not named his players 99s default names default names only oh good another one that would have been mine if i'd taken the boat down [Music] yeah why didn't i take the boat down there what i mean he did let me stand this guy up still putting his guy down and making two plus is probably good but it's just a two plus and it's not like he's gonna fail anything ever hey [Applause] seven versus nine you would not be able to uh undo that move at a gym table top event [Applause] [Music] under any circumstance absolutely [ __ ] no take backs and chest clocks chest clocks no take backs [ __ ] off you tabletop [ __ ] wankers they're the rules of jim carr no no no no no markers at all pc you've got to use your brain i know it i know it's hard for these tabletop wankers but they're going to have to use their actual brain they're going to have to visualize before the actual eyes not they're not allowed to use 100 million counters they're not allowed a million [ __ ] take backs oh my god you [ __ ] c note this is insane down at [ __ ] six players hello fluke streamer yep games workshop minis only yeah [ __ ] all these wankers with their bloody penguins and bolts like that [ __ ] off with your [ __ ] sexy nuns twerking in your this amazon team is really a norse team just absolutely [ __ ] off you [ __ ] tossers games workshop only has to be what it actually is no pc no you can't do that i also who does that [ __ ] purple gouda that i think [ __ ] did my head in no none of that [ __ ] you play the game you don't like it you [ __ ] off [Applause] nope you can't absolutely not under any circumstance it is going to be totally different than normal tt events yeah actually people will people who aren't massive [ __ ] goobers will be able to know what's happening my only chance isn't it and it's it's still a [ __ ] chance like what is it why is this even a chance anyway it's not i should just come see i should just can't see i mean it's this is [ __ ] utterly complete pointless like what's the point why i should have just conceded [Music] if you want to be part of team positive then uh you've got to [ __ ] suck it up stop bitching like a little baby and try and [ __ ] play better hey i'll just get my surf catcher served my surfer catch i'll just get my catcher surfed yeah no no pc you're not no current no not current games workshop miniatures from 1994 official games workshop team miniatures from 1994 or later oh my god stop removing on every [ __ ] block [ __ ] this is insane isn't it she's slaughtered just absolutely [ __ ] slaughtered and there's just no way to come back at all i literally could just conceded with a save time no point keeping the tunes no last teams i guess there is the the move up catcher but still it's not that exciting isn't it no i can relax because they're a pin in the ass sometimes as well that that would be i guess that would be my discretion that would mean that would be my discretion only if it's really [ __ ] clear it's okay because like there's some things that are okay like if you only had like you know chaos warriors and basement or whatever it would be okay some people do some [ __ ] dumb [ __ ] that pisses me off well there you go incredibly [ __ ] this up didn't even gave us like an easy chance to hit the ball and i actually do things afterwards as well insane absolutely insane that you could give us such a good chance it's kind of crazy isn't it it's kind of crazy that's an amazing chance [Applause] i think it's not an amazing chance but it's amazing that there is a chance [Applause] good one two three four five six seven eight i guess i mean getting the score back is going to be difficult [Applause] flip me guys [Music] no i wouldn't require color i i guess yeah you could have color coding [Music] i wouldn't demand color coding but it would be you would get a point for color coding so you'd have to do it if you wanted to win the tournament [ __ ] heads i would love to do a tournament like that like it wouldn't be like that obviously because if to run a napton you'd have to let all the [ __ ] happen but i would love it to be like that where just people would have to play properly [Applause] there's a chance he doesn't power here isn't there 275s so not not much chance he doesn't but not yet come on oh bastard come on catch it on the blodge catch it on the blodge no it was the perfect scanner you lucky you lucky bastard okay he hasn't got a rule for this though he could feel it he could fail it no of course he doesn't lucky bastard well that's [ __ ] disappointing that is [ __ ] disappointing oh yeah all right that's pretty good there's a chance to draw [Applause] uh yeah like yeah it would have to be not many people would would be interested in playing in a tournament where they weren't allowed to take back or mark everything out with a [ __ ] million [ __ ] coins or dice or whatever the [ __ ] [ __ ] they call playing bloodball whatever the [ __ ] these wankers do that they call playing bloodball they wouldn't they wouldn't enjoy it as much [Applause] oh [ __ ] off [Music] you might as well now mine you you might as well like you literally might as well just concede now to save to save 10 minutes yeah no it's not just gym con it's like wang thinking of running enough events i poke a poker game at gym kind of be a good idea yeah you were thinking of running well i don't know about enough but you were thinking running football events weren't yeah you would you would be appealing [Applause] ah [Music] ah oh hey wang kissing [Applause] um are you taking the piss pc or or do have you played a lot and you're actually secretly good are you like the opposite of dale texas hold him wanger and i pretty baller at poker just quietly i'm pretty i'm pretty confident i mean we've put it to the test multiple times for thousands of dollars and thousands of pounds but it would be cool to have a fun game with you guys we wouldn't have to have we wouldn't want big stakes woody that would spoil it if people if people lost money that would be not fun so we'd have to make it like just a little fun game i mean yeah okay school [Applause] [Music] [Applause] no no then that's 80 that's 80 pounds that's that's people i mean that's a tournament i mean it'd just be how many people would be up gym con not that many people we should we'd just do like we could do a cash game or uh or just like little sitting goals right just little sitting goals just a bit of fun yeah jim con will be happening i don't know if it'll be 2022 or 2023 this team might be dead now guard's pretty decent move ups pretty decent but losing's pretty [ __ ] i mean it is high elves rebuys are [ __ ] [ __ ] rebuys honestly [ __ ] rebuys just play properly just play properly is is what i say to people who want rebuys is just [ __ ] play properly yeah right blah blah blah stay fantastic

that out Josh it's 4:00 getting into town I've got to get there by 4:30 and I'm 2 minutes away looks like we made it turn right on 1 turn left in 15 M the day seems sure seem to just fly by though soon as we're done here and we're empty I head right back for another one let's see if I can get back there tonight yet except instead of crossing at International Falls into Canada where I got to pay a $21 to M turn right on 13 avue and then turn left and 50 m instead of doing that we're going to go and cross over at Rainy River Ontario where there is no toll save some money oh it's rush hour now too look at all this thanks came here to grab fuel cuz I don't think I have enough to get all the way back up to canora and back down here tomorrow so just to be safe we'll fuel up here today and we'll fuel again tomorrow when we get back here that's an empty trailer if I ever seen one nice and quick they helped me roll up the tarps I got there just as they were uh you know winding down the end of day so I got there just in time so it was a rush rush unload and now it's a rush rush getting back up to canora I'm going to cross into Canada at Rainy River instead of at Fort Francis so it's bodet Minnesota on the American side Rainy River on the Canadian side uh my friends were telling me to Cross there instead it's not very much further it's just a few miles further to go around that way and you save yourself the $21 toll going over international bridge from International Falls to Fort Francis Ontario so no tolls that's where I'm headed so doing the math on the distance I just heard of this today actually from my buddy Peter that you met in the Vlog was it yesterday he says yeah avoid that $20 toll or $21 toll just cross over at Rainy River over the same river into Canada from Minnesota but there's no toll there and they're open 24/7 we're headed that way okay so from here Rainy River is 312 kilometers and International Falls is one second here about 300 so it's within 10 to 15 minutes so it's about 10 to 15 minutes long longer about 20 km or like 15 and 15 miles further maybe and I saved $21 I think that's a win we're going to go up that way this time and uh see what we find I've never gone this road so I don't really like taking new back roads and two-lane highways at night but H the weather isn't too bad tonight so I think tonight's a good night for it yeah I'm excited ha no toll they were right so we're crossing over the river here into Canada from bodet Minnesota into uh rainy Ontario and there's no total here save myself $21 on the right side Canada B A Rainy River Highway 11 Rainy River sorry not just rainy Ontario Rainy River no tolls good to know good to know this is my new Crossing when I'm empty good day everybody it's morning already didn't that go quick short Vlog today I know it's why I got to continue a little bit of this this morning chat with you for a bit so we went through Rainy River and it was great the ride was so much better the ride was there was less towns to go through the roads were better they were wider it was just an all around less stressful drive I'm very glad that my friends told me about it if I'm coming empty from brainer back up canor I think I'll continue going through Rainy River first of all you save the $21 that you'd have to pay at the toll going through International Falls into Fort Francis and secondly it's not that far around it's probably about 20 km further which is about 15 15 miles or so right no less than that like 13 miles somewh not that much further to go around that way I think I mean I could double check that but even if it was even if it was a little bit further than that I can double check that for you but uh it would be worth it for me just for the the less just for the the smoother ride it it was so nice just quiet no deer well I'm sure there's deer around there but I didn't see any yeah I was happy with that I'm going to continue doing that when coming empty back up into Ontario here that was good that was very good I recommend you do it too save the money don't give the toll man your money what am I looking for a here we go brain bucket so I'm up here in canora again getting ready uh I'm just around the corner I'm getting ready to go and load up another one of these and head back down I don't think Rainy River is a commercial Crossing so in order for uh you to cross into the US with Freight on your trailer you'll have to go through International Falls and Fort Francis cuz that's a commercial Crossing but when you're empty you can use any Crossing as long as it's open right so it only works when you're empty it's snowing outside I want to show you this is what I woke up to I'm just around the corner at the the corner of I believe this what Highway 71 right right my GPS is turned off again oh that's because I had unplugged it for the night why did I do that I don't know why I do the things that I do all right is it on now okay I don't know so we're at the corner of uh Highway 17 and 11 and uh come on tell me what road this is Highway 71 yep 7 71 okay 71 and 17 hey that's like backwards 17 and 71 H that's where we slept tonight yeah so I'm just show you out here beautiful view out here to wake up to it's a nice Lake out there when I woke up this morning it was all just ice you know when I I blinked and suddenly this white stuff

oh [Music] oh [Music] he fed them with the finest wheat and satisfied them with honey from the rock in the name of the father and of the son and of the holy spirit the lord be with you today we celebrate the most holy body and blood of christ the solemnity of corpus christi this is one of the big solemnity that comes after the ordinary time if you remember the ordinary time started immediately after the pentecost last sunday we celebrated the holy trinity and after this now we now enter into the studies of ordinary time this is one among the very few celebrations of feasts or solemnities that has a procession and a sequence today we may not have the procession for obvious reasons but we shall have the sequence we've got other standards that have the sequence i'm sure we'll be notified as the day rose by during this mass i want us to pray for all the catechumens and in a very special way all men and women who are seeking to solemnize their marriages so that they they can be partakers of the holy eucharist we also pray in a special way for all the ministers of the eucharist all the extra ordinary ministers of the eucharist and all the persons who sacrifice their life for the well-being of humanity we take a short moment of silence and ask god for pardon and peace i confess to the almighty [Music] my goals god in my works imported down on what i failed to do through my thoughts through my thoughts through my most previous forms may almighty god have mercy on us forgive us our sins and bring us to life everlasting [Music] oh [Music] me [Music] friends [Music] oh [Music] oh [Music] oh [Music] food [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] oh [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] oh [Music] yes [Applause] oh [Applause] is oh god who in this wonderful sacrament have left us a memorial of your passion grant us we pray so that to revere the sacred mysteries of your body and blood that we may always experience in ourselves the fruit of your redemption who lives and reigns with god the father in the unity of the holy spirit one god forever and ever [Music] [Applause] [Music] yes [Music] [Applause] me the first reading a reading from the book of exodus chapter 24 verse 3 to 8 behold the blood of the covenant which the lord has made with you a reading from the book of exodus in those days moses came and told the people of the words of the lord and all the ordinance and all the people answered with one voice and said all the words which the lord has spoken we will do and moses wrote all the words of the lord and he rose ali in the morning and built an altar at the foot of the mountain and 12 pillars according to the 12 tribes of israel and he sent young men of the people of israel who offered burnt offerings and sacrificed peace offerings of auxin to the lord and moses took half of the blood and put in basins and half of the blood he drew against the altar then he took the book of the covenant and said i said in the hearing of the people and they said all that the lord has done has spoken we will do and we will be obedient and moses took the blood and drew it upon the people and said behold the blood of the covenant which the lord has made with you in accordance with all these words the word of the lord [Music] foreign [Music] oh [Music] 10 [Music] my [Music] can [Laughter] um [Music] true [Music] my [Music] day [Music] oh [Music] foreign [Music] second reading comes from hebrews chapter 9 verse 11 to 15 a reading from the letter to the hebrews brethren when christ appeared as a high priest of the good things that have come then through the greater and more perfect tent not made with hands that is not of these creation he entered once for all into the holy praise taking not the bread of goats and calves but his own bread thus securing an internal redemption for if the sparkling of default persons with their bread of goats and bulls and with the ashes of a heifer sanctifies for the purification of the flesh how much more shall the bread of christ who through the internal spirit of and himself without premise of promise to god purify your concerns from dead works to serve the living god therefore he is the mediator of a new covenant so that those who are called may receive their promised internal inheritance since our death has occurred which redeems them from the transgressions under the first covenant the wound of the lord [Music] oh [Music] oh [Music] foreign [Music] m [Music] is [Music] oh [Music] um [Music] um [Music] um [Music] um [Music] me [Music] oh [Music] i am the living bread which came down from heaven says the lord even eat this bran he will live forever [Music] oh [Music] this is my body this is my blood the lord be with you a reading from the holy gospel according to [Music] mark we are reading from the gospel of saint mark 14 verses 12 to 16 then 22 to 26 on the first day of unleavened bread when they sacrificed the passover his disciples said to jesus where will you have us go and prepare for you the passover and he sent two of the disciples and said to them go into the city and the man carrying a jar of water will meet you follow him and wherever he enters say to the householder the teacher says where is my guest room where i am to eat the passover with my disciples and he will show you a large upper room furnished and ready there prepare for us and the disciples set out and went to the city and found it as he had told them and they prepared the passover and as they were eating he took said take this my body and he took a charis and when he had given thanks he gave it to them and they all drunk of it and he said to them this is my blood of the covenant which is poured out for many truly i say to you i shall not drink again of the fruit of the vine until that day when i drink it new in the kingdom of god and when they had sung a hymn they went out to the mount of olives the gospel of our lord today we celebrate the solemn feast of the corpus christi the solemnity of the most holy body and blood of christ today's solemnity it is a celebration of three three feasts in one number one the feast of the eucharistic sacrifice the feast of the eucharistic sacrifice number two the feast of the sacrament of the eucharist the feast of the sacrament of the eucharist and number three the feast of the real presence of jesus in this sacrament the feast of the real presence of jesus in this sacrament corpus christi therefore is a doctrinal feast established for three purposes number one to give god collective thanks for christ's abiding presence with us in the eucharist and honor him there therefore today we can rightfully say that we celebrate the feast of thanksgiving number two to instruct the people in the mystery faith and devotion surrounding the eucharist and therefore we can really foresee that today's solemnity has is deductive in asia that means it has the teaching capacity we will be taught about the holy eucharist about the sacrifice of holy mass and of course about our disposition as we celebrate this great sacrament number three to teach us to appreciate and make use of the great gift of the holy eucharist both as a sacrament and a sacrifice in the three-year cycle of the saudi liturgy there is a different theme each year for this feast of corpus christi in psycho a the theme is the eucharist as our food and drink in psychob which is this year the emphasis is on the eucharist as the sign of the covenant that means that our today's theme is eucharist as the sign of the covenant you've got to look at the eucharist and how that is manifested in our day-to-day living and our celebrations number three psycho c the theme focuses on the priesthood of jesus christ now although we celebrate the institution of the holy eucharist on holy thursday the church wants to emphasize its importance by a special feast formerly called corpus christi it was pope urban iv who first extended the feast to the universal church this is one of the few feasts left in church which we observe a procession and a sun sequence those with processions are of course today and as i said today we shall not have a procession for obvious reasons the other one is palm sunday we have a larger procession the other one is though not so significant but a holy saturday night the procession from the fireplace to the altar and the fourth one is the feast of the presentation of jesus which starts out at the church and then there is a cuddle procession those with the sun sequence is today corpus christi the other one is a the one we celebrated the other sunday that is pentecost and then the third one is easter sunday this one have got the sun the sun sequence now therefore this feast calls us to reflect on the salvific meal the bread and blood i mean the bread and wine representing the blood of christ as the salvific meal and it is to this extent that we are also called to make a sneak preview a sneak preview of the significance of meals in the bible what is the significance of the meals in the bible which actually is what we celebrate today number one meals in the bible show acceptance to outcasts and prodigals significance number two remember if you want to remember in luke 15 when the prodigal son came home there was a feast prepared for him of fattened calve so if you look in the bible whenever there was something or someone lost whenever it was fouled then there was a great celebration no wonder we are told that there will be celebration in heaven great celebration in heaven when one lost sinner has turned back to god so in the bible meals are inclusive in asia it's a way of saying welcome home my son welcome home my daughter we will therefore later talk about the the heavenly banquet the heavenly banquet is when we all have returned remember here in this world when our brothers and sisters die for us we see them as going departing from us resting in peace sleeping to god our brothers and sisters come home for him he sees them coming home and when they come home there is the heavenly banquet and the heavenly banquet of course later we shall hear the nature of that banquet as it is written in the book of prophet isaiah number two meals in the bible signify a breakdown of social barriers breakdown of social barriers remember the wedding feast where everybody was collected from the cities and the the aisles and the streets and the paths and their roads and mentioned them number three meals in the bible they teach and they challenge people they teach and challenge remember the feeding of the 5000 and the question that jesus asked do you have something to give them and the fellow said now we have only 200 and not possible and jesus put up a charge tell them to sit down and give them food number four meals in the bible tell stories with a message they tell stories with a message look at them in the bible there are stories told and the message of course always the message of inclusivity the message of love the message of reconciliation and the message of forgiveness number five meals in the bible communicate forgiveness of sins and reconciliation of sinners i love that forgiveness of sins and reconciliation of sinners you may have noted a when people have differed and they have had a discord the movement they reconcile they will always say we can share a cup of tea or a meal signifying the discord is over number six meals in the bible heal the sick and that is why in in this mass will be reminded of the healing nature of holy mass number seven meals in the bible provide food and drink at that basic level and number eight meals in the bible communicate friendship we can also say in in extension that every time we partake of the holy eucharist every time we participate in joremas it is an expression of friendship to our brothers and sisters we express that we are one because later the holy eucharist makes us one it therefore becomes paradoxical when we are in church participating in holy mass and keeping our discords intact it doesn't add up number nine finally meals in the bible console the sorrowing and the grieving console the soaring and grieving if you read from prophet isaiah chapter 25 verses 6 to 9 the prophet says that on this holy mountain the lord of hosts will you prepare a meal of rich food it is at that point tears will be wiped and number two most important death will be defeated in fact the prophet says whatever has been covering you know covering the faces of the people will be wiped away and their tears wiped away so every time we participate in holy mass it's a moment of reconciliation the best way to get your heart healed is to make sure that you participate in holy mass it gives us instant inner healing we may try a few other things but none will give the healing effect that holy mass can give therefore they are good people as we celebrate corpus christi today both our first and second reading talks about covenant sacrifice and blood according to the first reading the old covenant was sealed with the blood of animals which moses sprinkled on the people on the contrary the second reading reminds us that the new covenant was sealed with the blood of christ this is what makes it the functional difference between the earlier one and the new one blood of the animals and blood of jesus christ hence the sacrifice of the body and blood of christ is the game-changer you know while the first covenant never guaranteed eternal life the knee does it he does because it was sealed with the costly blood through a perfect sacrifice offered once and for all at that point we are reminded that salvation is not free and easy it had to cost the father his only son and that means we'll have have to go through a purifying moment if you like for us to attain eternity with the lord in the gospel christ instituted the holy eucharist here he was both the priest and the victim this is another difference between the new and the old covenant in the old there was a dichotomy clear dichotomy between the priest offering and the victim and the victim was always the lamb in the new the priest and the victim are one that is why then later in the developed theology we will be reminded that holy eucharist is the sacrament of unity it does not make a lot of social sense when we go to church partake of the whole eucharist and then remain fragmented at home if you are not able to navigate the market waters of what it is that is happening at home and then we come from us and we cannot get it right then there is something that needs healing and that's something i'll tell you today today ask the priest christ offered himself to god for our salvation so it is important to note that whenever we celebrate the holy eucharist christ is fully present both as priests and as victim for purposes of salvation unity and sanctification he accomplishes his priesthood through the actions of the human priests who is altar christos another christ and who acts in persona christi that is in the person of christ on the other hand he accomplishes his role as a victim in the form of bread and wine all these put together is what we refer to as an action of grace an action of grace which is celebrated and remembered today the church today through this sacrament and this celebration and always as the teacher the church teaches that i quit the eucharist is the source and the summit of the christian life for in the blessed eucharist is contained the whole spiritual good of the church namely christ himself the eucharist is also the culmination both of god's action sanctifying the world in christ and of the worship men offer to christ in a brief the eucharist is the sum and summary of our faith if you like you may want to read catechism of the catholic church numbers 13 24 to 13 25 catechism of the catholic church numbers 13 24 and 13 25 therefore what is it that we celebrate today today's celebration is a celebration of life it is a celebration of salvation and today is a celebration of grace it teaches us that as real food the eucharist is the true body and blood of christ which nourishes our soul it is a concrete way through which christ is divinely present with us every day and every moment it helped us to realize that we are not alone in our sufferings whatever we are going through we are not alone there is no one moment in life that we will ever go through our circumstances alone today marx has a great assurance again that in our storms christ is there in our darkness christ is there in our pains christ is there in our desolation christ is there in our rejections christ is there in our frustrations christ is there the holy communion also can heal it does heal also reconciles one to god therefore today we are being reminded that every holy mass that we participate in is healing mass and this i want to explain because we have got quite a good number of lost souls especially in the catholic church and today i want to speak to those lost souls and the souls that are preparing to get lost i also want to the pr to talk to the preachers of distorted sacramento theology so that we can all be at power when we celebrate the holy eucharist when we say that every holy mass is healing mass we talk about mass healing us in three ways and maybe this is where we are going to find the discrepancy why some of us are always and perpetually attending healing masses but they are never healed where some people have been going for healing masses perpetually and their families have never come together why some people have become even city covers in the hearing massive shrines they are perpetually they are like tabernacles but to go to their families it got broken last year but one before jesus was born so then we ask where is the problem maybe today we can try to attempt to find where the problem is the holy eucharist heals our orphaned memory this is part of what really we get to understand or to be taught what is an orphaned memory today we are living at a time of great orphanage the eucharist heals orphaned memory so many people have memories marked by lack of affection and bitter disappointment caused by those who who have given them a lot of pain and they were supposed to give them love people who have been broken in the hands of those who are supposed to to protect them people who have been ostracized in the hands of those who are supposed to bring them together these people have got their hearts orphaned those are the hearts that needs to be healed they are orphaned and remember the orphaned memory is not for the one who has taken the heart orphanage it is for one who is so bitter that i was supposed to be taken care of by my husband he neglected me i was supposed to be taken care of by my wife she deserted me i was supposed to be taken care of by my mom or my dad they deserted me and they are they offend me now there are those who grow with an orphaned spirit and then later they will enter into the family and perpetuate the same now it is good to know and to say here that offend spirit is not generational but we can perpetuate it if we want if we remain closed when we go for mass and then we say i am going for inner healing what is in a healing there is no inner hearing minus the healing of um an orphaned memory to heal an um an orphaned memory one needs two things one is called surprise love and number two unconditional forgiveness now that is a bit difficult forgiveness we can fake and we all think can see criminals here we all fake forgiveness that is why sometimes we are so broken because somebody told us that ah no you are supposed to forgive because christians forgive christian forgiving is not automatic that you are a believer and you and you love jesus it is not automatic that forgiveness will happen because it also depends on the gravity of the offense and the depth of the wound how big is your kid order i give an example if somebody steals your cow stealing a cow and another one kills your child of the two who which one can you forgive first the one who stole your cow or the one who killed your son of the two who are you likely to forgive very fast the thief of a cow who are you likely to stay long before forgiving maybe even in heaven so when we talk about forgiveness we also need to get to go a bit deeper so that we do not offer what is called cheap forgiveness after we have been for uh after we have been healed in our orphaned memory we go to level number two through the eucharist the lord heals our negative memory now this is where the story is that is the negativity that has been seeping in our hearts over the years and it has almost assumed the nature of our hearts i don't know whether you have ever seen to seen a big a big stone that some waters have been uh seeping through through the bicycle over the years there comes a time the stone and the water they have a certain correlation even there are some molds that grow it's like there is a relationship between the stone and the water it's like they are one because the water has been flowing on that stone for long now seeping to seep is something like i want to see whether whether there's some water here if there's some water here oh yes there is some water here you see now if i leave this water like that and the water the water is flowing are you seeing now if i leave the water there you see that this water is also seeping through then it is it is uh coming out through here now this is what happens negative memory negative memory is largely pain that is carried from home it has been happening throughout and the problem is the source of the pain is not going through i give an example maybe you are in marriage and you are married to a spouse who looks like the cousin of the devil himself so what is happening uh over the years there has been a lot of negativity that has been seeping through your heart to the extent that it has graduated to marital hatred now you feel that you hate your husband or your wife with a lot of energy that cannot even be contained in the stores of hell so there is a lot of negativity that has been seeping through your heart so you go for healing mass now look at this you go for healing mass once you go for healing mass there is something that is that is seeping through still flowing why because the source of your pain is not going it's not going away so in this case person a goes for healing mass she is going to be healed because she feels she feels broken for example because her husband is such a bad fellow this person can go for healing mass and be healed but the negativity does not go that is why today you may have seen women who are perpetual literate goers women who are healed in every mass they go for healing even in nigeria and back they are planning to go to israel for hearing mass at kana but they cannot talk to their husbands in the same room they can't she has even been promoted in where the hearing mass is happening she is nazi deacon she's almost almost becoming a pope she is an intercessor deputy christ and then cousin of gabriel so they are in the hearing mass compound she operates like an angel one of the archangels are they nine but when she is at home she is a completely different person so somebody may want to ask father tell me how comes that my wife is an intercessor in a certain oratory or a shrine and yes she does never she never talks to me here is the answer your wife went for hearing mass but she never presented to god what she wanted healed she thought that she had an inner problem and she needed inner healing inner healing cannot be healed forever it's something that can be done with a determined heart in during one one deliverance but then when she went for healing mass she forgot to tell god that you know what god i have been carrying this negative memory remember this is memory this is not just a wound it's a memory you are remembering what your husband has been doing since you got married you are stuck there and you are not able to forgive the fellow this does not make you a bad woman or a pretender in the hearing ministry it only means that you are so ignorant of what to offer to god and this is where people who have been going for healing masses miss it somebody asked father how come that people have been going for healing masses go and they are never healed because they present something wrong it's just like going to the doctor and your food has a problem all along your foot has been having a problem but somebody told you because we have got so many so many um advisors somebody told you that there is a connection between your leg and your ear and so you went to the doctor to present your ear for healing you tell the doctor doctor my ear has a problem because someone told you that if you focus on the ear the leg is healed it is not true so that is why somebody went and went and told the priests or the pastor doing deliverance and hearing things that i'm here because i am unable to forgive my husband so i am i'm i'm broken i am here for inner hearing so now this is where some drama comes if the person doing hearing is theologically deficient this is where the pharaoh says somebody comes in church because you came here for healing you want to be healed god is good you want to be healed say amen and i can say that somebody would say that you know i can see there's somebody here if you you cannot forgive your husband he did this and that your husband is not here and he cannot come to church please come and hug me and you forgive him that is the drama that happens in some healing masses complete drama and madness i am for the ck just in case and this is where we miss it you have told somebody who has a wound between her and the husband to come and forgive you because she's forgiving the husband but you have not asked her give me your story with your husband and then offer the painting memory because here we don't just want to heal the heart there is the memory of this man remember this man is not going anywhere he is always there and as i have told you bad people live wrong very long they don't die so you can't say that i'm hoping that atacufa the guy won't die you might actually die leave him there eating and drinking waiting for jesus for the second time so what happens is at that point then you realize that yeah i have had this very bad memory when we got married this and these this and this happened this and this happened then you go and then you offer remember a negative memory is a product please don't forget this a negative memory is a product of an orphaned memory they are actually intertwined so you cannot heal one leave the other one but you cannot hear an offered memory and fail to address the negative memory now the negative memory drags on the service always sometimes it is easy to fake sometimes it is easy for the negative memory to hide at what we call deceptive feeling of relief it's like i am okay but i am not okay that is why when you are in the hearing mass you feel good you have like love for everybody including you would want to hug satan but when you go home and you see the same porcupine then you are asking god you give me this animal from where and remember even at the sherain you are an extraordinary eucharistic minister you're almost becoming deputy pope but at a church at home you are a different person because you never did what we call due diligence in spiritual spiritual disadvantage to understand where is my problem sometimes you talk about i have this and this happening i am um when i was preparing the november that we are that is on for family deliverance there's something that we said for family deliverance that sometimes you can have issues in your in your system that are disturbing you and then you ask could this be my problem or it is in the family but first ask what is my story because the moment i have told my story then i understand oh i may be having this problem it could be generational or situational i must be in touch with myself hearing a memory a negative memory is being in touch with myself and identifying yeah that yes my spouse is a constant problem shooter but i refuse to live in their league and in their jail i must heal the memory whatever happened happened at that point then therapist will tell you the husband whom you hate is a son of some parents who may not have done a very good job in terms of raising him the wife whom you hate is a daughter of some parents who may have done poor job in raising her and here you are and you are hating a sick man a man who was never given paternal mentorship a man who was never given maternal mentorship this fellow is just a lost soul with your spiritual and religious pride you cannot reach out to him then you keep on blaming three quarters of women in hearing masses perpetually are suffering from that it is called suffering from lack of memory lack of memory to present their negative memory allah are you connecting number three the eucharist heals a closed so this is what happens this is the sequence first our memory is orphaned the pain is too much the pain graduates into untold hatred after the hatred is septic imagine when hatred is septic it tells us no redemption so in the in our mind we declare the person persona non grata it means from now onwards my husband does not exist in my mind my wife does not exist in my mind my daughter does not exist in my mind my son does not exist in my mind and automatically you stop interceding for them because they do not exist now what happens god has a way of raising the dead in mind now this is what happens you go for prayers for healing mass in the middle of prayers if you are genuine in the middle of prayers your son whom you killed in your mind is all of a sudden brought up and then you start saying chidwe it is no cheat way you are being reminded god is raising the person you killed in your mind because you have refused to welcome the lost home maybe the judgment you passed and you closed that memory that judgment was premature and ill informed the reason why you are praying and somebody you don't like is always coming to your memory you are being reminded there is an assignment you have not done and then you're telling us no father every time i pray i'm always seeing my husband the way i hate him sometimes you see somebody who is dead maybe i want to discuss that one later it can be a bit lengthy i will tell you about it there is something about you who has gone for that mass that is not well done so what happens you take to god this memory the words that that i kept became septic i gave up and then i said this is dude redemption so i close it i normally don't pray for my husband why that's a close chapter it is you who closed remember when lazarus was in the grave and putrifying jesus came and called and the guy woke up the same jesus who caught in lazarus woke up is the same jesus who visits with us and us during holy mass and he calls them that we have killed in our hearts and in our memories and they rise up and when we come we are being sent my daughter you already has are resurrected your lazarus is not dead i know you said in your mind i don't have a husband he is dead in my mind i don't have a son dead in my mind i don't have a daughter dead in my mind the fellow was dead in your grave lazarus caesar said if you are here he will not have died jesus said he is not dead i am the resurrection i am the resurrection on this holy day we must participate and listen to the words of christ in the holy eucharist telling us i am the resurrection the person you killed in your heart in your mind is calling for attention there can be no unity between you and christ until such a time you have participated in removing roaring the rock the stone for lazarus to come out for reconciliation love and finally salvation that is how difficult it is to attend corpus christi celebration it reminds us of deeper realities that sometimes we would really really want to forget unfortunately we can't because jesus will not allow us to live the way we want because we are meant for him and for eternity with him therefore the holy eucharist is among other things a way of christians to remember to remember to remember what to remember what jesus has done for them and then they give thanks so we come together and we remember we have had a journey with all the people who have he who have who have injured us but jesus has always intervened i'm happy and when this is done the same eucharist fills our hearts with consoling love the love of the holy spirit who never leaves us and strengthens us even to hold the one who cannot walk but is our responsibility maybe that person you hate cannot walk but the person is your responsibility maybe maybe please note this maybe the only way that that person will see the face of god it is you and maybe you have never presented your closed memory christ not the available that is called the movement of healing you tell god i am raising my son whom i have carried for days on end i am raising my husband who have carried for days on end this is my closed memory open it in anuka meows that is what happens otherwise if we don't do that we receive the holy eucharist but our hearts are bleeding they are bleeding because our negative memories were never presented our offending memories never presented and finally our close memories never presented today we present all of them because we know we know there is the healing power in the holy eucharist there is the healing power in the holy mass and there is healing power in jesus christ god is good we can't be going for mars and perpetually carrying our sicknesses aparna no please no please see my men [Music] hello [Music] is oh oh [Music] oh [Applause] [Music] is foreign [Music] [Applause] foreign [Music] m [Music] [Applause] oh [Applause] [Music]

up for you in a similar way when supper was ended he took the cherries and giving you thanks he said the blessing and gave the charis to his disciples saying take this all of you and drink from it for

Young People and the COVID Vaccine
Good morning John, here in the US the moment has arrived. Everyone over the age of 16 can get the COVID vaccine. Over 200 million doses have been administered, and around 40% of people have gotten at least one dose. And yet. The graph of people getting vaccinated everyday, it’s starting to stop do this, where it’s going higher every day, it’s starting to go less and less everyday. And the reason for this is largely younger people, by which I mean people under the age of 50 not getting their vaccine immediately. It could be that you, watching this video right now are one of those people, or maybe you know one of those people and you want to send them this video. So I’m going to go, very quickly, through a few of the reasons why I’ve heard young people specifically say they haven’t gotten vaccinated yet. And first, I think tremendously under examined, is just that like, it’s a slightly unpleasant task that I don’t want to add to my list of things to do. And since now you can do it at any time, people are putting it off. Schedules are busy, and you know that the day after your second dose you might feel pretty crummy, I certainly did. So why not put it off to a more convenient time? But as with all procrastinations, look there’s not really a better time than now. But you also have to look at what the trade off is, like we’re dealing with mild inconvenience that is scheduled versus unscheduled major inconvenience and maybe worse. The symptoms of COVID suck no matter how old you are. COVID does kill young people, it just doesn’t kill very many of them. The hospitalization rates are pretty high, and spending a bunch of time at the hospital is so bad. It’s also like a burden on healthcare workers who are overburdened enough right now. There are also a bunch of long term side effects from getting COVID that we don’t understand super well right now, and those sometimes also happen when people get very mild cases. But even if you get none of that, it’s still really inconvenient to get COVID. You feel like crap, you have to quarantine. It’s inconvenient for you and everyone else in your world. So why not decrease the odds of that happening by 95%? But maybe you’re not worried about yourself at all. It’s still really important to recognize that every person except like the first person who gets COVID, gets it from somebody else. And it’s very easy to not know when you are the person who got someone sick because a lot of people get sick by being exposed to people who are infected but don’t even know that they are. If you’re vaccinated, the odds of you getting another person sick go way, way, way down. And then much more unlikely, but even scarier. Every one of the new COVID variants that we’re talking about right now, every one of them evolved inside of a person. And we will never know who that person was. But I think we all can agree that we don’t want to be that person. Nobody wants to be the breeding ground from which a new variant of COVID emerges. You can prevent yourself from being that person by getting a vaccine. Now finally I’ve also heard some people saying that, you know, I got COVID, or I think I got COVID, or I might as well just get COVID and I can get immunity that way. Leaving aside the fact that it is a big deal and you might infect someone for who it is an even bigger deal, immunity from getting COVID is much less effective at preventing future COVID infections than the vaccines are. So if you’ve had COVID or you think you might have, or if you think, I’ll just get it and get immune that way, none of that works. You need a vaccine. I understand that every person is experiencing this differently, and also that it’s frustrating. And annoying. Like this things has been in charge of our lives for too long. And for many people, a vaccine feels like a way of taking back control. And for others, it feels like more control that they’re giving up. For me, it felt like taking back control. And I think to some extent, because the vaccines are a really big deal, and they are such a triumph of hard work and human ingenuity, that it’s easy to think, like, I have to think really hard about this. It’s something to worry about, and to fret over. But my friends, it’s really not. The decision here is simple, it is both a big deal but also not a big deal. It’s just not a big deal. So if you need one final reason to go get a vaccine, hi I’m Hank Green. I make science videos. I’ve been making educational videos for people for free on the internet for over 10 years, and maybe you want to do me a favor! It’s super easy, there’s a link in the description you can click on it, put in your zip code, and make your appointment for getting your COVID vaccine. Put it in your phone, then go do it. And get a free donut. John, I’ll see you on Tuesday.

foreign [Music] nothing oh okay this is the end of my date night I had one drink I had some of their truffle parmesan truffle fries they were a delight I wish they were a little hot up but they were really really good I enjoyed the experience at this luxury Cinema I met a few people one lady was just blown away from my tattoo she loved it I mean these are older women they was like but it just looks so pretty it looks so pretty and they was like and it's just you know still really dainty and pretty you know some people you know tattoos can get a bad rap too and I was like it's like wearing jewelry all the time why would I put a necklace around this and he was like she was like well I just got out of military so it's like right now I can live my life I could do what I want to do I said that's right I said I would say go for it people you know automatically judge you if you have tattoos or something but at the end of the day this was in your heart and how you treat people how you come across and and you know the energy that you allow in your life and what you're giving back and everybody's not gonna like you and that's their problem not yours but like I said before I'm gonna protect my energy my aura what's around me who's around me and if the energy does not feel good I don't want it around me period period because it comes to a point when I don't care I don't I'm either gonna change my situation or see what I can change that's in my power so with that said go out and get you that tattoo today honey okay go ahead and get you that tattoo you only got one life and this

shy why would I know that I can't even remember the words to a song so what that's it you have to do what's in your heart what makes you feel good so if there's an opportunity for you to go out and continue to treat you like the queen or the king that you are go ahead and do you you don't have to wait around for somebody else to do stuff with you and everybody's different I know everybody is not you know into going out by themselves or whatever but baby once you are comfortable with being with you it really really makes a big difference in your life you got you have to love you you have to learn to love you and at the end of the day that's all you have is you so I want to go out and dress up and do the thing okay why not why be basic when you could be extra and why you can't play dress

Great Night #88: I'm So Glad I'm High!!
live from Austin we're in this universe Bonnie hates you and like the Von Erics everyone dies it's going to be a great night now prepare yourselves like a post-apocalyptic 14 year old girl who learns many things along the way because here are your hosts Brian Brushwood and Justin Robert Young [Music] I just heard Brett say everything right and Bryce looked up that was really fun and I want to rub it in okay so oh that's in your face rub it around in that special place nailed it all right uh Justin Brian do we want to start with the Stinger or just start with the thing oh my God the music's not done playing wait for the music to stop playing everybody wait Brian wait just just would you guys wait here we go yep we're waiting okay Justin yeah how was your week foreign I got surprised and it affected me profoundly and I don't know where we should start uh let's start with the part where yeah something surprised both of us and it's the same thing what surprised you yeah is that Brian could keep a secret and what surprised me was that Brian could keep us up so let's let's uh uh uh Bryce do you have I I I I I apologize because we did not set up but do you have any of the the video that was put up publicly of my surprise moment I have some photos I don't have a video okay if anybody can can find a video and throw it in the chat if not don't worry about it but on Friday night what I thought was happening was that I was going gonna go on a little walk I normally go on a much longer walk on a Friday but I was explaining to me that I shouldn't do that because my brother and sister-in-law were in town and there are two kids who I love and uh uh they I was explained to me that their uh uh whatever grandma is in a bowling league and so they're fascinated with bowling and so we need to go this already sounds fake as hell no but they're but they're young enough kids right like if you would have told me that they're fascinated with crinkling aluminum foil I would have bought it because like they [ __ ] are like I get I literally here's I love doing bits in general I love doing bits with kids I love doing bits with those kids because they love they'll sell [ __ ] everything constantly forever uh uh the bit that wound up lasting until the end of the week was one where uh uh and this was dangerous and I I tried to ratchet it down it wasn't gonna happen uh but they would poke one of my eyes and I would go from me being Justin to me being a pirate they would poke my other eye and I would go to a comically a blind man who needs to touch everyone's faces because in movies blind people are touching faces all the time sure and then they would unpoke my eyes which also involved them putting their fingers in my eyeball uh so that that's basically what happened so it was not out of bounds to be like oh we'll go their new bit is they love they heard there's a bowling alley like a mile away from your house yes so I go for my walk my wife is being [ __ ] so annoying and she's like all right I see where you are because I have my my iPhone on and she has access to it so she's like I know where you are I'm gonna come pick you up and I'm like not far away from our house and I'm like oh [ __ ] man but you're on a walk you're in the head yeah we're just gonna get back to the house I gotta throw away the beer can I have in my hand like like this is just like like it better if I get there she's like I don't know I really want to get like okay whatever so I'm [ __ ] half annoyed get out of the car we walk in and I'm told that I'm going to meet my brother-in-law in the bar because I've been such a good sport with the kids he wants to buy me a beer nice so I walk into the bar so it's still performative in your mind where it's like these are the rituals that we do to thank for the thing I think we're gonna have a fun family night bowling that's that's what I think is going to happen uh indeed my brother-in-law is in the bar but all things being equal what you really want to talk about is the witch trials I'm texting Brian because I'm listening to The Witch Trials of JK Rowling and I have very specific Petty notes and I'm I'm texting him I'm not getting anything back from Brian I'm like [ __ ] normally also on Thursdays I'm supposed to talk to John Teasdale I went on my walk on Thursday Teasdale won't answer I'm like [ __ ] all right well I guess I'm just the real piece of [ __ ] huh I'm I'm just I'm just the old hat in the corner this one also like like uh Andrew Maine canceled last minute before the weird things podcast yeah which that happens all the time that one didn't even trip the [ __ ] Richter Scale uh I then get to the bar and indeed my brother-in-law is there his wife and his kids and my wife and Brian and Bonnie and his kids and Jacob the audio guy and Andrew Maine and his wife roshni and my friend uh uh my friends Matt and Beth and Trey and anisia their unborn child uh and your college roommate my college roommates are there uh my neighborhood friends Garrett uh uh Gabe my buddy from from uh uh Oakland is there uh uh to the point where I I don't know how to act and I don't say anything uh Heaton's there so like uh it rent rounds if it was there uh it it was on Tuesday John Teasdale who was in [ __ ] New Zealand as far as I knew that dude was in New Zealand and then was in the Westgate Bowling Alley Bar but here's the most awkward thing pin in all this on Thursdays my walk used to be around the block and I'd have a couple drinks and then I would stop in the Westgate Bowling Alley Bar and I made friends with the bartender so the bartender was there the bar so then I stopped going there over dry January and I have not gone back so yes she was there but also her first thing when I went up to go get a drink is where the [ __ ] have you been also Darren kitchen he wasn't there that night actually oh he was there the next day uh but still uh uh the the point was that people from around the world literally flew in to do this which I only later found out was not a thing that was randomly put together it was something that had been in the works for months and I heard that very very quickly and I immediately as soon as I found that out I looked at my friend Brian Brushwood for whom I I've gotten to know very well over these past 10 plus years that we have been friends we have gotten even more uh on the same page because of world's greatest con where we've had to work a lot together and there's been more introspective kind of notes I know things that Brian keeps secrets about I know things that Brian has a very hard time keeping secrets about the fact that this was in the works since when uh a while uh long enough long enough for me to be very excited when you gave me permission to on my birthday talk about world's greatest con and long enough that uh just dumb other [ __ ] stuff became a proxy and I was like I really want to talk to other person about this dumb thing that's definitely not the real thing let me out gas about how hard it is for me to not talk to this person about this thing it was about you the entire time so the idea all right so you knew how does this come together because I I don't I I still don't know exactly how this comes together I mean uh we can we can forensic trace it down but let's say two months ago uh knowing Ashley she she probably had the wisdom to wait until we got to the part where Brian had to be informed to tell Brian um okay so which I guess is probably two months ago or whatever I'm yeah she and she she was at which point you know of November I instantly forgot about it yes the moment I heard about it I'm like cool you're doing a thing uh I'm gonna use my superpower what thing to forget it yes because that's going to be a lot easier than thinking about it really good about forgetting things I introduced Jacob to Bonnie at your party and Jacob very patiently was like we have meant many times I have stayed at your property we appeared live on stage together yeah and I'm like whatever I'm in podcast mode to be honest when we were doing when the surprise thing happened and and by the way this was a week a weekend like uh uh for a very boring very unsympathetic reasons I've been doing a lot of traveling to fun locations to have fun with friends and I was expecting this to be the quiet weekend before I went off to the Bay Area for my actually my actual birthday weekend which is this weekend in fact tomorrow if you're going to be in the Bay Area at the piano fight theater you can please go ahead and get tickets at Eventbrite for we're not wrong live featuring myself Jen Briny and Andrew Heaton the Yankee Doodle Panther along with special guest Brian Brushwood yep oh it's out now it's out mainly because I we said it uh yeah it was idiot even thinking about it now in an arena for which I really began talking off the top of my head and being funny and clever I cannot put words to how much it all meant to me and you know I joked with Ashley that uh you know she was gonna [ __ ] this whole thing up because like my entire work ethic is built around assuming everybody doesn't like me and I need to make them like me with work and uh uh it's it's you know if I stop working in the next few weeks then you'll know that everything went horribly awry but uh uh technically what you told me is yeah so when season four is just a voicemail from Brian that's when you'll know that's when you'll know has ended and the engine is broken it's just gonna be like Brian's like I think it should be about dogs and I'm like sounds great like do you have a script yep just go with whatever you think I saw a dog today and it's like like oh okay yeah sure um no but in all in all in all honesty um you are the person Brian who has said uh uh over and over and over again that like it's not that anybody has an actual pinned thought about turning whatever age right right like 20 30 40 whatever the big round numbers that people have gigantic opinions about uh it's it's just what our human nature is we we assign value to it and so for whatever it is be it me looking back at 10 years since my 30th birthday uh or just you know the fact that at at 40 thankfully a career that I bet on back in my early 20s New Media when I didn't get a job in newspaper and I didn't follow my degree and I wasted my entire [ __ ] Collegiate expenditures uh like that that has paid off and so much of that room was filled with people that are they're not just friends they're podcasting like Legends in my opinion and and were probably before I met him in in you know merit's case like it it meant the the absolute world to me and and I don't even know how I can put it into words I certainly can't put them in a few words you did because you rounded the corner and we could see in your eyes like the only way to puncture the the the thick titan-like skin of just Robert Young is to overwhelm it with immensive force and um it took collecting everybody from around the world and from every part of your life from the very beginning to college to every phase in there and you said the words I will remember to my dying day I'm so glad I'm high [Music] and she's true it's true I both was high and I was glad that I won well yeah I I don't know what I would have done if I if I wasn't like like just oh that oh yeah it makes a little more sense now right yeah that makes a little more sense I knew he wasn't that emotional on first blush no sir uh happy birthday Justin that was yeah that was the closest I could get to a joke at the time but anyway uh uh thank you to to everybody who uh uh showed up that night on Friday night at the bowling alley not price but you know everybody else you know if if we could take a moment um please please do all of us the favor of of like really unpacking because we all were just happy that we pulled off the heist in that moment and we saw in your eyes the scanning and the dawning realization of what was happening but none of us know what was going on upstairs would you do us the honor of kind of like really maybe in a safe place yeah here's here's what happened number one Ashley has done surprise parties for me twice before uh both more simple dinner kind of things that were just like oh all right it was with my birthday I didn't want to do a big thing and then next thing you know she's like well let's just go to a [ __ ] dinner and I'm like ah whatever and then she drags me to dinner and a bunch of people that we know are there and we get to have a big fun dinner like she's done it twice so this so this time I first walk in and I see a bunch of people that are local and I'm like oh this [ __ ] like like she did it again she pulled it off by the way as you walked in there was a brief second that probably is not still in your memory at which point we we didn't lock guys but we glanced eyes and I immediately turned around and I was like I got made because we definitely stared right down the barrel at each other and I thought it was all over and no I was the one that screwed it up no no I stood around and face the other way okay no I I I did not notice uh I I walk in I see a bunch of people with their phones up that are recording me and it's a bunch of local people and then from there if you if if you see this video me what what is Dawning is me scanning around the room and seeing more and more people that shouldn't be there so seeing uh Brownsville and Andrew Maine people that flew from out of state my mom my brother like all these people that were not supposed to yeah Time Jumper and the whole people not supposed to be their thing I think we're we're a little bit trained to go immediately into hey good to see you mode because we've been to so many conventions where somebody we met at on the other coast of the continent or whatever is there uh but but at some point you get overwhelmed and very clearly you're just but talk me through well I I I I I can't believe I'm I'm like at that moment and to be totally honest I'm still not down from that moment I'm still at a a place of like I don't know how to operate in the world where everybody would show up like like that's not enough words like not with videos but actually get on a plane days before and deceive you for months ahead of time that's not for people like me that's not for people that that's not for people that's not for who does like that's a thing that happens when you are rich and famous it's a thing that happens when everybody who's around you is Rich and Famous it's a thing that happens when when people are uh you know like I don't know in different places in their lives it doesn't happen in the west gate Lanes bowling alley it doesn't happen to me it doesn't happen with the people that were there uh I I feel like what it made me face in that moment is that everything I've worked for paid off and it's hard it's hard to do it's really really hard to in fact I'm going to speak a little bit out of out of at a school here I've had a bunch of conversations with a friend of ours who is excellent at climbing they've had a hard life had a lot of challenges put before them and they have excelled Beyond every level that you could possibly put in front of them in terms of Career Success and money success and like they're doing [ __ ] great but they keep running into emotional issues and happiness issues and what I keep telling him is you are great at climbing you're not great at enjoying the view and I think what I realized in that moment and I've had to face in every moment since is a I'm right nailed it number two I can take my own advice that like if I'm surprised by that then like maybe I don't realize what I have in a community of people that love me and what I what what how much I mean to other people even as I Define my relationship with how much I love them like it is half intentional and half imposter syndrome to think that it's good manners for me to just say all of my relationships need to be a hundred percent work on my side and then whatever anybody else wants to give me [ __ ] whatever like like I'll check the bank account when I'm dead like other than that I just want to be there for people and and to see folks show up in that way uh was just uh yeah well it was exceptional so I want that on a shirt right price keeps flashing a picture of me a very high it's it's isn't it uh in fact put those and say I did that that'd be the newborn let's put it on gas tanks there's there's there's a magician that I've heard about who is in Academia and he was deeply religious religious and and never liked to lie and would figure out very very careful crafting of his uh his uh scripts uh there there's a reason this a lot just plug Founders eventually we'll plug Founders Dave the uh uh uh he would craft his scripts in such a way where he was never actually technically lying and so I very good at deciding to immediately forget things and so the moment I heard there's a thing great future me will figure it out right exactly okay because also it's very dangerous to tell Brian that there is a surprise party for which he is not organizing or at least that's the reputation I've cultivated right but yeah and also factually true I've cultivated his reputation allegedly it took a lot of effort uh but but it's easy for me to forget about it uh uh but I've never had to lie to you on and and when we got closer and closer I remember uh on Thursday or Friday you were asking like hey man this whole weekend we gotta we gotta reshoot lines or whatever yeah are you available and there was a half second pause and I and I said the words I am free for whatever you want yes which was technically technically true right yeah um but what what was so even though even though for me it was very psychically difficult to uh hold anything back um it was worth it because uh you know when when I turned 40 and I am going to talk out of school because this is a theme that comes up in world's greatest con season three coming out April 1st um uh I had a tremendous amount of possibly April 3rd if it's a Monday anyway go ahead whatever whatever and earlier we'll figure it out uh by the way reach out to us the world's greatest con the illusion is destroyed your teeth are strong when I turned 40 I had a tremendous amount of external validation that comes from goals that I had set you know that's when we hit a million subscribers that's when the TV show came out and I happened to turn 40 or whatever uh but my 40th birthday was you know me and Bonnie had a steak Yeah and uh I'm very happy that I was I was surprised that in that moment it felt Hollow and I'm very

your mom or Ashley annoyed that you did not heed either of their advice no apparently it was all my mom okay it was not sounds right your mom was pushing Ashley to yeah yeah and she was like uh and then my mom eventually just broke down and just said get a [ __ ] haircut she texted me uh by the way and I just hit her up with an LOL oh you uh by the way I I just to complete the circuit on the uh surprise birthday weekend like your mom maybe legitimately gave like she cracked the code on speeches at events full stop don't don't have more than one person have one person yeah but make sure that one person is it was literally the entire life story tells the entire story and make sure to shine a spotlight on people in the room like that was it there was nothing else she crushed it man my mom told my life literally from the point of her feeling my heartbeat uh to a a modern day and pointed out everybody in in the crowd and she had this I did that she had this very very uh uh like vaudevillian's intonation of like and that's when Justin met Brian Brushwood everybody claps and everything she uh she remembered the moment when I left for college and on the radio yes uh [ __ ] Green Day's Time of Your Life played and she just plays on her phone like a [ __ ] Boomer the the the song into the microphone from her phone and it's very awkward for about 10 seconds and then everybody starts singing along with the chorus like it was I mean Jesus [ __ ] Christ like at a certain point you gotta admit you have the best mom and I just have the best mom I'm sorry uh you know what I don't think anybody will disagree no because also if you don't think it's true she'll comment happy birthday to you or how cute your kids are on Facebook she's like like Thanos but there's infinite uh spots for Infinity Stones like in terms of her collecting surrogate children just by un uh asked for Praise of your life your career and your children on Facebook that's apparently all she does is just tell everybody how amazing they are and it's it's great she has that much love to give what's our next topic airing Dirty Laundry ah all right I know nothing let's get into some real [ __ ] let's get into some real [ __ ] finally I'm I'm so mad go at my neighbor yeah in the words of how mad in the words of famous Troubadour Michael television I want to kill my neighbor's dog oh [ __ ] all right so just so you don't say their real name let's give them a nickname right now Jerry pernapolis Jerry pernapolis is your neighbor perfy for short that's right Jerry perf dog hey dog hey what up Pete dog no no no no we gotta scratch dog because there's another dog involved dog involved multiple dogs involved how many [ __ ] what is this I'm just hitting snooze every time and then eventually we'll get to the point where it rings at the right time okay okay okay so so I I I don't like my neighbor's dog and you know why big dog small dog why don't you I think that they're medium I think she's got two I think one's like medium one small okay so high pitch yeah not even that high pitch give us an example it's not about barking it's not a barking oh this is not a barking oh oh what if the dog was a turkey what would that sound like yeah I guess he just killed himself real quick he's nailing it at the Brushwood Inn so she she lives in the apartment below me and I like to go and sit on my patio I'm a I'm a I'm a I'm a southern gentleman I like to sit on my patio I like to go and smoke weed out there all the time I'm just a simple Southern podcaster yes I like to sit on my pad I like to sit on my Ikea outer uh Furniture while I smoke weed while I wash a little bit of the F1 no I like to watch old F1 Clips while I smoke the Cheba on my outdoor Wick of furniture some people drive to survive I drive cause I'm alive I love it and so I like to wear pajamas and sit outside how many of y'all have glowing walls that's what I thought oh and so okay I I like my little patio but she and she just moved in recently so this is a relatively new thing okay but she lets her dogs uh do their business out on her patio oh no oh and then just leaves it there and that's on the bus that's done pick it up so it just smells like dog [ __ ] oh just dog [ __ ] bakes and it bakes in the sun and it ruins paint me a picture here you're on your uh second floor porch you're on the second floor she on the first floor or is she next to you the one below me she's the one oh so it rises it rises it rises Brian it rises I have a suggestion yeah three gorillapods three laser pointers just set them up on the rail and just whenever you see a [ __ ] just leave it on all night long go to bed she's gonna get up in the middle of the night and vaporize the [ __ ] no no she's gonna wonder why the Predator is targeting this dog [ __ ] and just like let her know she's been seen letting a dog take a dump on the lawn so it sounds a little threatening so you you your your idea here is through humiliation theatrical humiliation yep she will change her behavior or become the chancellor of Germany or become the chancellor of Germany well okay good Craig put that on the list we'll put that one on the list but it's it's it's what do I do about this because I don't I don't I don't I don't I'm not well we have one course of action I have a second course of actions all right course of action the second um I think that you should start with 80 pounds of thermite okay save it was a little tough to do but it's ruining my spot she's ruining my spot's being ruined y'all she blew up so all right okay and it's because it smells like dog [ __ ] but there's no like [ __ ] dog [ __ ] uh probably a little bit hold on wait but before before we go any further Bryce how would you describe your sensitivity to smells in General on a scale from zero to ten are you a sensitive smeller or are you like kind of a dead-nosed [ __ ] uh I'm I'm pretty insensitive to Smells I would say I'm a two or a three so so it's gotta be really [ __ ] ranked yeah yeah for you and if it's outside that's really [ __ ] rank yeah yeah especially like outside compared to the rest of wide open creation on the other side right like it's a dog dog so okay what are you more comfortable with are you more comfortable with the direct approach or the passive aggressiveness how about theatrical humiliation yeah yeah I would say name let's shame let's get a custom order of 100 um of those flags that surveyors use yep that just say OMG it's poop and then every time it's there you just another Logistics question are these porch areas enclosed by anything they are enclosed and I cannot reach her you cannot just like throw a bunch of dog [ __ ] baggies on of her on airport so now we need like a sniper rifle that fires these uh an entire Rife through the through the mesh yes through and it just is a flag on pearls we're like OMG [ __ ] um I did think like what if I got stickers made that said I I don't know something that I could like vandalize her door I guess that's not a good idea that my first idea was the vandalizer door with this okay yeah yeah reset the counter let's let's pick from I know we've picked lot from a basket of weird sociopathic Behavior but let's let's go to the realm of supreme diplomatic Behavior okay yeah all right if you wanted to be incredibly diplomatic what you would do is go down there introduce have you introduced yourself to her no I have not yeah you would go down introduce yourself to her and say what's next keep a secret for two months and you would say I never realized how much we were two different parts of the Inside Out head right now you would go down and you would say hi I'm Bryce I'm your upstairs neighbor I just want to let you know whenever if you ever need anything if you want to leave me an extra key or something or if I can leave an extra key to your place I'm about neighbory [ __ ] right uh I bought you this bottle of wine here you go and then you can say oh look at this oh these adorable dogs amazing uh uh you know you know I I I'm almost embarrassed telling you but uh I think one of them took a little poopy outside over last night don't say that you've been smelling it for weeks for a week like like you took a little poop outside because I could smell it from my place so it's a subtle element of letting her know that it is something on your radar and now your friends you're more willing to do a favor for a friend than somebody who sociopathically points out your mistakes just so we're clear yeah everything you said in your mind yeah could pass for subtle what do you mean subtle it's it's new neighbor [ __ ] that's well that's what you said is is say all those things yeah and then subtly say something yeah but after hey we live in the same building hey the landlord's a real piece of work am I right anyway I just wanted to let you know that there's hey you know you use the other laundry machine because the ones haunted blah blah blah like just like all the [ __ ] you would normally talk about with the neighbor and then at the end that one little thing of like hey like I don't it's just there's just one more thing and that is I think your dog might have taken a [ __ ] outside because I could smell it so they're not they're not gonna think that this was all entirely orchestrated because of that last thing why not what Bryce uh is it a case where they took the dog on the walk and they knew the dog was sitting there and then they just didn't pick it up or is it a case where they let the dog outside this is a this is a concrete patio about the size of this desk we are not talking about like the front grass space no they don't want to walk the dog so they let the dog outside and then take a [ __ ] and instead of bagging it up and throwing it outside or throwing it somewhere in their house they just leave it out there and they assume ah wait till it dries they'll be easier to pick up I'll pick a bunch of them up at the same time and then I'll throw them away yeah so it's it's lazy [ __ ] it's lazy [ __ ] it's lazy [ __ ] I have an alternate please suggestion oh please I need it I I think I think I'm I'm sorry I don't interrupt you but but just Bryce so we can we can run through my scenario before yes uh uh if you thank God that alarm went off um uh uh Bryce if you were just to role play if we're gonna role play that I'm the neighbor and you are Bryce okay uh uh let's just let's just do just the end of that conversation we're already getting along famously okay I don't even know yeah yeah okay yeah oh oh my God I I thank God everyone else in this building seems so uptight I'm glad that I'm glad that we met thank you again for the Pinot Grigio yeah I glad that we met it's me her partner yeah this is my partner James James uh uh uh we live together and both of us love our dogs I I love the drums I play them at night though yeah oh oh my God how are you drums and dogs precious that's their name and aren't they and aren't they so precious they are you sure are they're perfect in every way but you know what like sometimes what's precious to me sometimes what's that is like my space all right have you ever had your space be precious oh my god oh yeah we moved here remember we are very precious about space that we uh we're very precious you know the you know the the the the the Optics right the audible elements the the olfactory elements of it uh-huh that's what we told the cops James well this is Bryce our new neighbor he should know why we left Arkansas all right we're on the Run oh no oh goodness that's gracious yeah yeah so uh uh don't call us by our real names uh as far as Johnny Law knows I'm Zelda and he's James boy Zelda my name's voice Zelda that's right hold on could you imagine talking to the cops and feel like they told me their names were result and boys I ripped one oh okay he does that yeah okay I guess maybe that's because I always know to cut a gasser because I was feeling something more like this faster I think it smells more like a like a like a like a like a like a dog like dirt weed like dirt [ __ ] weed that gets smoked on the porch I'm so glad I am so yeah yeah me boy Zelda yeah on the patio I gotta go smell the devil's weed yeah all over the place [ __ ] and you're ruining it I'm sorry but you had something you wanted to bring up damn [ __ ] this bout to be Arkansas one more time I mean look we got get the go bag let's go all right let's go we're killing this [ __ ] it'll go great all right well I'll try I'm gonna be you're gonna be boy Metroid in Guadalajara I think that went well yeah yeah I think that'll solve it yeah we have another or should I wait for the alarm to go off yeah we do have some more time all right let's go alive to tell the tale holy [ __ ] uh look there's there's quote unquote danger and then there's capital D danger and um we we did a monorogue episode where the only clue people had was a photograph of how he tried to cut down or how he successfully cut down a tree yeah and internet sleuths are smart and they're able to tell from the burn marks and from the wedges of the cuts and all that and it's like all we did was post a photo maybe maybe a video with a flash of the stump and they were like this is irresponsible and you should go to jail yeah and that was my clue that maybe we should do a different type of monoroge episode uh so instead of us being [ __ ] and eventually getting it right I mean alongside uh alongside uh we took a 20-minute video so normally yeah a modern Rogue episode is uh warts and all what what happens if we throw firecrackers into a pool of gas correct and then this is so much bigger than we thought it was going and it's that Controlled Chaos that makes the the channel special this was something for which people immediately realized was more High uh Stakes than the normal modern Rogue thing and so instead of just releasing the video where you would do something and be surprised by the results you realize there had to be a little sheen on top of it we have been producing content with Brandt Hughes this is our third decade of doing it yeah this is the first time Brant said hey could you guys come in to the office for a moment I didn't even know he did this yes I I I I've just learned that it happened at some point and he did it on on his own it's great and so we watched the 20 minute video and I believe it was three hours of patient explanation of just how dangerous what we had done was yeah uh so it's it's now a over an hour long episode Jesus okay on on the modern Rogue Channel and you can see us at the beginning being very flippant about like whatever tree went down am I right so so it is your own let's watch yep of a video but it's the first release of the video all the while Brandt unbelievably patient and saying things like well I can understand why you would do that but let me explain this and then like around the 40 minute Mark you could see me defeated and like there's like one or two moments that Jason makes a joke and I and I'm just like just don't we I did it we we we [ __ ] up and this was because you had a tree that had dropped a [ __ ] ton of branches during the ice storm and we were trying to just clear the rest eliminate it right yeah and it turns out that logging a little bit not dangerous but deadly yeah that's right uh not that and Brant makes a great point of that not dangerous deadly people die doing this yeah it also usually takes them well and and hours less there's that curious moment where you think to yourself like okay so we did a bad uh in one timeline we could just never release this right we just decided it didn't happen I mean the tree fell down nobody got hurt it's fine uh there's another timeline where we could release it and you know put a bunch of on-screen like make sure not to do it this way do it the right way but then there's this timeline where we just make an hour-long video a documentary about you cutting down a tree wrong yeah well and and Brent goes into like because Brant has the unique point of view of being somebody for those uh Brian is Brian is up trying to Jungle Book [ __ ] kick the tree over because Brant has been there for a very long time he was able to bring up stuff like I've watched Brian a little bit and I have seen when Brian loses control of of all of the planned things and things go awry uh it was it was an extraordinarily kind thing that Brandt did that allowed us to frame this episode in a way that was responsible pointed out everything we did wrong uh but but also kept the uh the joyfulness didn't lose the the the the [ __ ] which is the dipshitter right yeah the dipshittery is definitely there yeah everybody please go follow emergent beacon on YouTube brand did an amazing job with this I I I don't know it's it's the the various circumstances that got him to like editing this episode in particular and the way it came out are so great I could not have even imagined it being this good and it's great that's shot on the great night set so you know it's a real dangerous one wait wait like we started to defend ourselves and then the moment I saw Brent Hughes cross his arms I knew I was in trouble yeah uh at any rate uh I think my alarm's about to go off again there it is uh Founders Day hey that's Founders Day the theme song Everybody shows up to get along it's Founder's Day you know it's in may just kidding it's in April 1st not a fooler yep uh we're down to the last few tickets uh I'm gonna start teasing out some ideas that we have uh because it looks like uh uh it's uh last year we had to make up for like what two it was like three years because like we took everybody's money and then didn't have it and then yeah the pandemic was happening and then we didn't have it and so as a result so that was also the first reason why it didn't happen uh correct but yeah turns out it kept on going it kept demeking yes correct uh and and so we had a lot of catching up to do this time we get to be a lot more intimate I have one secret idea I'm holding back but I am willing to divulge that one divulge one of the features is going to be uh the game is called skull it's a bluffing game it's dead simple anybody could play it and everybody will at Founders Day we're gonna have a trophy at the end nobody gets to know because it looks like but what's the trophy for uh well because we're gonna have a tournament oh everybody who's there gets to play and and we're going to try to spread out all of the no no no no no what I mean like technically everybody gets too many there everybody gets to play right nobody but me is going to win okay what I'm saying is that I am not right now no you're not that I am the winner of this tournament what and if any Fool Believes that they can be the winner of this tournament and not me then I will personally hand that person a crispy or whatever's in my wallet hundred dollar bill I will give that person a hundred dollar bill and guess what it ain't gonna happen cause I'm the best skull player of all time hey nobody got my skull skills I am the skull-duggery master and I won't take home trophy yeah Paul's on everything uh Jacob made a terrible threat that horrifies me he said wouldn't it be great if you won and I'm like no that'd be terrible because it's my party on my property and the game I picked in the tournament oh my God you have to spend all day playing skull instead of doing your shows well no no but but more importantly it's like how what a bad look it would be if it's like oh great leader one tournament the great leader created like you bought yourself something no no no I I I I I like it's very presumptive to say that you're gonna win when we know Justin's gonna win yeah well I know because it's because it's obvious that I'm going to win what the [ __ ] is happening okay yeah well what the heck what's happening I have self-confidence now this is when somebody with self-confidence in you know what you just flipped me because I was thinking like I didn't want to win I wanted to wash out early on but you're sitting here talking like you can win this thing there's no [ __ ] way I can now Bluff you fight I you [ __ ] you didn't even know about your birthday you forgot what your birthday was how about that yeah that's adorable you're doing great honey let's go player of all time are you in on this [ __ ] I'm gonna enjoy that 100 are you gonna play of course I'm gonna play it's not not legally a purse this is not betting this is not gambling we're not doing that oh this is me I believe it's legally come on down to Founders Day come on under Founders they lose to me and skull we will join no way I will hold up the trophy and we will all say this was preordained by God in unison you just made me actually want to try to win okay well that's good for you for you it's a game skill it's also not gonna I'm not gonna personally pay out a hundred dollars because I'm going to win I am going to win and so when that happens we will a hold of the trophy we will all chant in unison this was preordained by God okay and that and that'll be that you do realize next week the the post show has to be us doing the practice round of of skull so I could show you no how bad you're gonna be no no no I don't [ __ ] for free Jesus no I'm saving myself for the tournament I'll give you 20 bucks you know what that's that's a good segue patreon.com great night that's

thought you meant you were logged in and we were uh that was the testing you passed here we are anyway do you like the design of my Zine why why is every other letter some are saying serif some are serifed explain explain your thought process I like to keep people off bounds yeah okay you've certainly done that um what I really want you to see is this swipe swipe swap look at the cover it's a gigantic Beethoven phone that says by my pig well that's weird because it's britovo but sorry are you from New York here in the country we call it Beach over I've lost track of whether what any of us

a very weird choice for that scene work uh I believe it's a font you believe it's a font why do you think it's a font uh mainly because I've used it and it's it's it's a kind of seraphy but it's got

*ROYAL HOG* CYCLE IS UNFAIR| ONLY 2.8 ELIXIR | CLASH ROYALE |
back and we're going to do what this deck was made to do and get a ton of damage on the Golem and a ton of damage onto the king Tower or on the princess Tower and look at how disgusting this is like if you're wondering why this is getting nerfed next season that's why what's up everyone it's jkey here and today we're going to be playing with one of the best if not the best decks in the game Royal Hogs uh Evo skeletons Evo bomber looks like this guy might have a a similar deck to me we'll see I'm going to go ahead and go like this little prince on that side and um I just realized my Canon is level 10 yeah this is one of the best decks in the game the number one player in the world Ian 77 currently is running this deck it's so strong in The Meta uh even if you don't have the Canon ear it's really good the Evo bomber and the Evo skeletons are just flat out broken uh to be completely honest I'm going to go like this and Evo bom at the bridge and get a ton of damage onto their King Tower or onto their princess towers and also DPS down this Royal Giant and even My Level 10 Canon here we only get one shot with the RG um so yeah this game I wasn't expecting it to to go as fast as that but pretty much over the reason I'm not playing uh at in a classic challenge like I usually do for a lot of my YouTube videos is the Evo bomber doesn't actually work in the classic challenges I don't really know why um so he pops his ability I'm going to go like this and I don't really think they're going to be able to defend this so yeah this deck is really strong uh in triple Elixir this deck is absolutely crazy because you can drop a little prince in the back and just like psycle hog EQ and there's almost nothing they can do to defend so this was a really weird game to be completely honest um but we're going to go ahead and take the three CR and move on to the next one so GG's we'll see you there into our next match here and I I took Canon Aire out um and Canon air is pretty underleveled if you have Canon air maxed I think it synergizes good with this deck but I did not okay so we have to cyle to our Tesla here uh hog Hog's a pretty good matchup honestly you have a lot of answers for a hog rider so you don't got to worry too much I'm going to Little Prince here to help clean this up and yeah you don't truly you can win most matchups honestly like I'm I'm playing here at 9,000 trophies with some underleveled cards and I really think we're going to be okay earthquake hovered okay he drops the Mega Knight no big deal I'm going to try and get a king Tower activation uh but no guarantees here go like that and we're okay we surviv like I said you have a very very good means of Defending so I was at a very large Elixir disadvantage there so I didn't panic I just pulled the Mega Knight to my king Tower and got a nice King Tower activation knowing that they have Mega Knight I want to be I want to play this match up a little differently I kind of want to rely on split Lane pressure more than anything so what we're going to do is we're going to split Hogs and we're going to split evos skeletons we also have our evolved Varan cycle when they go for the Mega Knight if they go for the Mega Knight if not those evil skeletons are going to go in and they already are and that's what I'm talking about that push specifically is damn near impossible to stop like it's just so good um so yeah he has hog Mega Knight that's actually um kind of a common deck like at Mid ladder he spent a lot right there I'm going to go in with my Hogs I know I talked about doing split Lane pressure but he doesn't have a ton of Elixir right now so he's probably going to go for like yeah bats or something cheap and we're going to get a ton of damage I wouldn't do that if they had enough Elixir to go in for a Mega Knight nice and at this point we pretty much secured the dub um we just kind of got to chill defend and earthquake is almost enough to take their Tower so easy peasy this deck is seriously so good like really it's in my top three decks for this entire season okay once that pops I'm going to go for skeletons to help defend it delivery gets down Ice Spirit just to pressure maybe force out the Evo bats yeah okay nice bats come out no evos no problem I'm going to pop the ability early and maybe bait out a Mega Knight that'd be nice honestly if we could bait that out yep perfect now we can go in for hogs in the opposite lane and not feel bad about ourselves King Tower helps out there Royal delivery here I'm going to Tesla High just to pull all of that over nice and my Evo Berry is doing work the splash radius is insane on this and yeah that's really well defended so 20 seconds left in the game I'm going to cycle a little prince in the back uh I have my Tesla in cycle and there's really no way that this person breaks through so really well well played you would think that Mega Knight would be a really good counter to Royal Hogs but it really isn't so Barry earthquake delivery and he's not breaking through our defense so good game to our opponent and we'll go ahead and catch y'all in the next one cool and our next match here and like I said uh Evo Barry's getting a Nerf next season so I don't know 100% if this deck is going to be as good but it'll definitely be really good okay I what EXC okay good game know I am um [Music] um all right good game we'll go ahead and catch y'all in the next one all right into our next match here against laughing we'll see if they're laughing at the end of this anyways uh I'm going to cycle my skeletons here minor poison is pretty common in the meta I wouldn't be surprised if that's what they're running maybe not um but yeah like I said this deck the defense is so strong I genuinely believe that you can win any match up if this kills the bats okay I'm going to go in auggy wagies here behind the berry nice we first had a Mega Knight that's honestly fine with me we're going to try and pull everything to the middle like so go like this and that's a lot of stuff on our King Tower to be completely honest so I'm going to have to eat those wall breakers and just be happy happy with our defense as is so now that we know that we have Mega Knight uh we're going to make sure that we do the same thing that we did in our previous matchup splitting our Royal Hogs not giving them a lot of value and all things considered like with the amount of Elixir Elixir that they had on that counter push I think we defended very very well so I'm happy with that unfortunately my bomber is going to be sacrificed here yeah but King Tower helps out a ton in this matchup it helps out with the miner helps out with the Bandit uh helps out with a ton of stuff so I don't think this deck usually runs a big spell either so um we very very much can make this comeback so I'm going to SP my Royal Hogs here then King Tower is actually going to help out with um that Miner so I'm just going to let it go and you can see those Royal Hogs are going to get a ton of damage on that lane so I made a video recently on the deck that this guy's running and it's really really good honestly it has a lot of good pressure but like I said no big spell so comeb back potential is definitely there for us skeletons to keep my little prince healthy goes for that early I'm going to pop my ability early and barely keep my little prince alive so that's perfect it's fine for out a lot of Elixir from them okay evil Berry here going to help clean everything up okay we're going to have a nice little counter push so if he goes for the Mega Knight in that lane I was going to say we're going to get a lot of value with our Barry here yep yep Evo Berry going in and I think we're going to actually take the Tower because they overspend and they don't have enough for a Mega Knight right away so that's Tower down right there we have our evos skeletons in cycle as well which is going to help a ton with this defense okay okay World delivery here my man's honestly probably just going to spam the bridge we're going to go like this messed up those evil skeletons I think oh no no we're Gucci okay Berry like this little prince like this my man is spamming everything at the bridge help me help me uh we tried all right chill chill chill reset we get a little bit of extra content for y delivery comes down I tried to defend we didn't get as much value out of our evil skeletons as we wanted so overtime bomber comes down like I mentioned no big spell so we're going to pull this in with our skeletons okay kind of an aggressive zap I feel I kind of want him to play a Mega Knight here this is what we're going to do we're going to go like this and hopes that they play a Mega Knight perfect there's the evil Berry there's the evil Berry evil Berry on the tower evil Berry becoming a secondary wi condition which is absolutely disgusting uh messed up those evil skeletons but we're still fine okay World delivery is going to come down beautiful and that Evo Berry might have gotten us enough damage to win the game honestly if we just buckle up and defend so we're just going to chill here we're just going to chill not panic like I said they don't have a big spell so whenever you're playing a deck that that doesn't have a big spell they're going to try your opponent's going to try and overwhelm you and you just need to keep a cool head okay evil Berry comes down we're going to go in with the hog EQ he's definitely going to Mega Knight but remember we have the evil bomber there yeah he's scared to do it because we have the Evo bomber in hand good Bandit honestly but now this point we can just cycle hog earthquake and there's really no way that they break through we're going to pull the Mega Knight to our King Tower we're going to go to with our little prince and GG's against Mega Knight at top ladder we'll go ahead and see you in the next one to our next match here against Gabrielle and as this season comes to a close I'm curious to see what everyone's opinions are about this next upcoming season we're going to take our King Tower activation here I know I'm really excited I get really excited whenever there's just a change you know I love that they're constantly updating the game every month you know new balance changes things like that so I'm really looking forward to what's to come okay I'm going to split my Hogs here especially when you don't know what they're running splitting Hogs is a really good move I'm going to earthquake to take care of that scar me eventually slowly uh we're going to get a ton of damage so arrows firecracker could be a lot of things uh my initial gut is hog rider but we don't know for sure okay Golem interesting all righty so we're going to go ahead and drop our Tesla it's nice that they didn't play Golem all the way in the back and we're going to do what this deck was made to do and get a ton of damage on the Golem and a ton of damage onto the king Tower or on the princess Tower then look at how disgusting this is like if you're wondering why this is getting nerfed next season that's why wow that's absolutely absurd this push is dead here once the Ice Spirit jumps we're then going to go for our skeletons we're going to pessure with ro Hogs and what is this guy's deck unfortunate timing with the Sparky honestly but they won't really have enough Elixir to support the Sparky and make like a really big push we know that their spell is arrows so we're going to keep that in mind as we defend here I'm going to take the earthquake EXC this dude's nuts and delivery one of the best answers in the game for the Sparky because of the shield my man goes for the pre-log it doesn't work out and uh this is most likely going to be Tower down here we're going to go in for the Royal Hogs and seal this game and at that point all we really have to do is defend he doesn't have scar me in hand he's maybe going to play a late Sparky make one more big push so as long as we defend this last push we're golden Sparky clone Golem this dude I feel like he's just running with like a random deck generator or something like that that's the Vibes that I get so we're going to Tesla early and we're actually going to skeletons early just more so to cycle to get to our evos as Al also to help DPS down that giant or that Golem as quickly as possible okay bomber here okay this is all going to get taken care of unfortunately okay Evo Berry here and Evo skeleton going to clean everything up and that Sparky is one shot delivery Tesla skeletons and uh points to this man for creativity on the deck but this deck is kind of garbage so good game uh we're going to go ahead and take the dub and we'll move on to the next one so we'll see you there all right into our next match against Antonio so far we haven't lost a game don't want to jinx it but I feel like the competition is hasn't been that crazy so far might be going up against our first minor Poison Control deck like I mentioned pretty strong deck we're going to do some split Lane pressure here and glad that we did honestly so yeah it looks like they're going to be playing the Remy Ellie deck like minor magic Archer NATO um with the bomb Tower so this is a really common deck at top top ladder they have a tornado they have a magic Archer they have a knight they often times have wall breakers um so we're going to keep that in mind we actually have a good good answers to all of those things so I'm going to go like this and then I'm actually going to let that other wall breaker connect it'll just even out the damage if you're quick enough you can actually split skeletons to counter that but I was not quick enough you know who I am okay I think he's back to a bomb Tower ready no he's not oh he has a delivery interesting okay we're going to bury like this mhm mm mhm mhm I'm it's literally a secondary win Condition it's crazy nice little prince uh doesn't do as much damage as we would have wanted him to do but he did his best yeah he's going to get a lot of damage here uh but we're going to hopefully have a nice counter push we'll see okay he can't afford the bomb Tower right away so he's going to eat a lot of damage here interesting that he has an earthquake or sorry not an earthquake that he has a delivery in here that feels kind of weird Barry here is going to help clean everything up or would have helped clean everything up we're going to go with our evos skeletons maybe he has delivery instead of poison or something like that that's a possibility or instead of NATO maybe has a delivery cuz it usually doesn't run log and delivery it's usually log and tornado so this dude's running a weird variation but so far I'm not too concerned like I said I don't know if he has a big spell yet so I'm going to cyle little prince in the same Lane still try and see but my intuition tells me that he doesn't have a big spell okay they're leaking great timing there could not have been better we're going to pop our ability here and get ready with the pre- earthquake on whatever he plays even if he doesn't play anything we're getting value nice good Ice Spirit by us he goes for the log whenever they pre-log like that it usually means that the miner in the front Evo bomber here is going to help out with everything offense and defense we're going to take an earthquake onto everything help our little piggies break through he'll probably delivery on them nope he delivered on the bomber instead which was a good choice okay we need to be ready here yep lot lots of pressure skeletons he gives us delivery value at the bridge I definitely think that's a mistake we're going to go in here he Cycles his log I don't think he'll have enough to get his bomb Tower right away if he does it's going to be late um so that's going to be good game to our opponent they played it kind of weird I'm surprised at the the combination of cards that they had no big spell is interesting um but nonetheless good game we're going we're going to go ahead and catch all in the next one and starting plays um split skeletons split Ice Spirit are probably the best things that you can play I got my delivery down late there oops oops he's going to get some some nice chip to start off with my fault but we're just going to chill excuse me don't you know who I am no need to panic no need need to panic okay so Lumberjack dark Goblin aren't they're not speaking to me right off the bat in terms of what they could be so we're just going to go like this our level 13 Little Prince is going to do his best mhm mhm okay don't get that much damage honestly still trying to 100% figure out what the rest of their deck is we're going to ignore that right side and we're going to drop our skellies here we have our Evo Baran cycle again every other Barry is an evolved one okay we're not going to mess up the delivery timing this time I've decided for okay he does that so we're going to go like this we're going to skeleton surround and then we're going to go for an Ice Spirit here interesting firecracker okay oh firecracker almost choked that he's going to get a king Tower activation no he's not actually I'm tempted to go for my king Tower activation I think I'm going to do it I'm going to it's probably worth it in this matchup you don't 100% know their entire wi conditions yet but King activation is always so big go for a low Tesla as well out of the range where you can snipe it with the dark Goblin is what I'm really concerned about okay really fortunate for us that we have our King Tower activated here we're going to be able to negate most of the spam I think he's just running like a Spam deck that's pretty common uh with royal recruits you can kind of just throw spam cards in your deck and and hope that it works that most people won't be able to defend so that's kind of what it looks like um we'll see though skeleton low here and I'm going to pressure opposite lane yeah I defitely knew was going to play something into that lane okay Lumberjack and dark Goblin aren't going to work 100% I'm going to pop this ability early want My Little Prince to lock on do some work here we're going to get some really nice delivery value on this side it's going to help with the Lumberjack and it's going to help with the dark Goblin Tesla here Evo oh that's supposed to be Evo Berry oops Evo Berry here and so far so good roog ended up kind of working but he's going to have a a nasty little counter push in this Lane so we're going to drop our little prince okay Evo recruits come down so here's what we're going to do going to go like this then ice Spirit here towards our Tesla evil skeletons are going to clean up the other side and yeah I'm pretty sure this dude's WI condition is Spam so hopefully we can go ahead and bring it together we're already we're at a small deficit but now that we figured out exactly what their deck is um I think if we defend properly and pressure at at the right times we're going to be okay okay evil Berry here such a monster dude look at him go okay I think he's going to recruits on this I'm going to pop the ability no recruits prot just yet yeah there they are okay there that's good delivery value we're going to Evo skeletons here good Evo skeletons Keep Us Alive honestly okay he's being really aggressive on that lane might be our time to go in here I think they've kind of overspent to be honest yeah we're definitely going to go in here all he has his troops from what I can tell so Evo Berry is going to get a lot of value most likely yeah just like that we were losing the entire game like no joke we were losing that entire game we were patient we waited for our time to go in and we uh we got the D so GG's to our opponent we'll go ahead and catch y'all in the next one to our next match against Hugh and uh okay okay all right okay okay all right well well doing it for see you on the next one cool into our next match here against Frank he's in the CR r l Esports Pro Clan so maybe we maybe we found some good comp I'm going to cycle my bomber I think that is might be literally the best play that you can make with this deck is C Lan your bomber cuz then the very next one you have will be an evolution bomber okay I'm going to go ahead and split Hogs here nice good timing I did I know they had a firecracker no but that works firecracker going to get taken care of and another Mega Knight deck yeah not surprised we're going to try and get our King toar activated here so I'm going to drop the delivery and hope that the Mega Knight jumps on it [Music] in hopes of pulling it to our King Tower like so and that didn't really work did it yeah unfortunate for us honestly okay but now we are tasked with bringing this game back and I'm all for it so we're going to go with royal Hogs a bit ahead of our Barry here um mostly because I don't want him to Mega Knight onto everything right like I want him to have to pick what he's going to Mega Knight onto and I know he took a lot of damage there but they really did spend a lot of Elixir so I think it's only right that we we get a lot of our damage back and in fact we actually pretty much evened up the damage disadvantage that we had going on so okay going to e one firecracker shot here okay nice and we survive Ice Spirit here and I think we're going to be able to win this game I know we didn't have the best start we kind of messed up the king Tower activation they pressured well but I think we're going to be able to clutch up this game mark my words at this point I'm more concerned about defending because in a two Tower game I don't think we have an advantage I'm guessing that's going to be in the safe spot exactly um because because of the king Tower activation it kind of made sense for him to play that in the safe spot okay they did that we're going to go with the hog split only because they have the Mega Knight so uh the lane that he wants to defend is that one exactly okay that's perfect for us okay we know he has wall breakers so we need to be careful we're going to go like this and Little Prince and King Tower are all going to help DPS this down so pretty well defended by me even with an underleveled little prince in my opinion okay okay we're going to go like this pull everything in we need to save the delivery for that gang good zap by him honestly but we have a nice little counter push I know he's probably going to drop a meganet on this so I don't really want to support this with Hogs yep there it is but now we're going to force out a lot of Elixir onto this Lane hopefully yep and he doubled down on pressuring instead of Defending there maybe it was the move I don't know we'll see we'll [Applause] see I'm going to just distract this and that's good game and you know they actually played really well um but we ended up defending and like I said you can always come back with this deck you have such strong defense such such strong pressure so good game to this gentleman we'll see you on the next one our next match here against Alex and I have both of my pre-evolutions in hand going to give them the good luck split skeletons in the back and then if they don't do anything you can split or you can play a bomber so he goes like that um I'm just going to immediately pressure yeah guards are fine um yeah you can't just let him really get away with free pressure or a lava hound in the back first play absolutely Bonkers I'm going to go like like this if he has a fireball he can actually get my little prince off the board yeah no surprise that's annoying but it is what it is you can still outplay people even if your cards are underleveled so I'm not too worried about it gave me delivery value here okay mhm and just like that we're fine we actually despite you know our little prince getting fireballed find oursel in a good situation where we're up a little bit of damage and we know that they're running Lava Hound so life is good I'm going to bury in the opposite lane and then if they go in for the lava we're going to pressure with royal Hogs I'm an Ice Spirit as well I mean even if they okay he goes for that so those are still going to do those are still going to do work okay so Fireball and arrows are the big spell I'm going to Little Prince here and he can go for a fireball if he so chooses little Prince's going to do his best that's all I can say all right I thought I thought that he played a lava hound but it was actually The Inferno Dragon okay so he does that I'm going to go like this then like this so if he plays guards it's going to get munched up yeah he goes for a fireball well played actually won't have Fireball for my Tesla here though so that will be nice most likely he's going to support it with skeleton dragons that would be my guess so what we're going to do I don't even think he has arrows in hand to be completely honest we're going to go like this ice spirit's going to jump on everything Tesla's actually targeting the skeleton dragons so that's perfect and we're good here Tesla should clean everything up I'm going to Little Prince here help DPS this down and then it's going to help um with that eye dragon as well goes for the arrows [Music] okay I wish I had the evolved bomber but it's not in hand right now little prince is going to come down like I said he can spell it here if he so chooses and he does so choose that's fine with me lava clone what timing okay my man getting really aggressive here I ain't even going to lie um he spent a lot on that push and I think these Evo skeletons are going to give him a hard time yeah good patience from us I'm trying to press him while his Elixir is low exactly and honestly I just kind of want to put it into spell range okay these H these uh barbarians are blocking the bridge H yeah we can pretty much uh just cycle earthquakes at this point we're going to go like this evil Barry way over here and he's probably going to spam the bridge mostly because that's like really the only thing that they can do in this situation to win so we're going to go with our Hogs here we're going to go with an earthquake he has to go for defensive Fireball and I believe one more earthquake will take the game so we're just going to chill not panic we have so much answers for their spam skeletons to pull everything up high and then we're going to go for hog EQ and my man is not really going to be able to defend so pressure is on we're going to say good game they gave us the well played I think so too you know not necessarily the easiest match up but we absolutely have answers for Lava Hound so well played to this guy or girl and we'll go ahead and catch yall in the next one all right into likely our final match of the video against Burton from Elite Louisiana and he's running the Canon and I don't know how I feel about that we're going to just cycle our bomber into those archers kir does good against like big tanks I think it does decently against Royal Hogs too okay we're just taking turns cycling cards in the back so it's all good King over here I don't want to pop the ability so I'm just going to drop a delivery instead okay my little prince barely alive and N I don't I don't know about that oh oh okay we're going to pull that to the king Tower beautiful good King Tower activation from us delivery here and bippity boity boo we're in business well defended by us it's so scary when you're playing against Mega knite it's really easy to mess up that King Tower activation but at this point I've done it twice so hopefully you learn or you've learned how to activate the king Tower that's one of the more common King Tower activations in the game though so yall are probably pretty familiar with that one already Ice Spirit skeletons here or evos skeletons going to carry and evos skeletons are a nightmare for people that use Canon ear like it's really really annoying for them yeah he went for The Wizard and I I don't know is that still going to hit my man played a wizard and the evos skeleton still got on the tower that is how rough it is to run Canon ear right now oh my gosh I feel bad okay we he has a mega Knight um I don't think he has enough Elixir to play it though yeah we're just going to delivery here and sacrifice our Royal recruit to the musketeer yeah it is what it is what it is got to make sacrifices we're going to tesy here try and pull in the valkyrie as well as the musky like that and at this point I'm just going to split lane and then I'm going to probably go for a Barry if he drops like a Mega Knight not in that lane [Applause] though okay we're going to get ready with our delivery here delivery on the firecracker most likely might even Barry only cuz Barry splashes so far yeah okay going for this Evo bomber here going to go for skeletons didn't really work the way I wanted it to but that's going to be Tower down nice nice very very nice Evo Berry is such a menace dude oh my gosh it's no joke been a secondary win win condition for me unironically good Evo firecracker but it honestly doesn't even matter we can kind of just stall out this game go for high Tesla here go for a royal delivery in case they go for wall breakers there they are and uh just outplay so if you struggle with Mega Knight I just showed you can have underleveled cards you can still outplay them so GG's we'll go ahead and catch all in the next one that's going to do it for today's video here is the deck one more time Absolut and that's going to do it for today's video here is the deck one more time if you want to take a screenshot once again and

Lucia and st. Vincent and the Grenadines and 400 kilometres 250 miles northeast of Trinidad and Tobago Barbados is outside the principal Atlantic hurricane belt its capital and largest city as Bridgetown inhabited by Kalen ago people since the 13th century and prior to that by other amerindians Barbados was visited by Spanish navigators in the late 15th century and claimed for the Spanish crown it first appeared in a Spanish map in 1511 the Portuguese visited the island in 1536 but they left it unclaimed with their only remnants being an introduction of wild hogs for a good supply of meat whenever the island was visited an English ship the olive blossom arrived in Barbados in 1625 its men took possession of it in the name of King James the first in 1627 the first permanent settlers arrived from England and it became an English and later British colony as a wealthy sugar colony it became an English center of the African slave trade until that trade was outlawed in 1807 with final emancipation of slaves in Barbados occurring over a period of years from 1833 on the 30th of November 1966 Barbados became an independent state and Commonwealth realm with the British monarch currently queen elizabeth ii as hereditary head of state it has a population of two hundred eighty-four thousand nine hundred ninety six people predominantly of african descent despite being classified as an atlantic island Barbados is considered to be a part of the caribbean where it is ranked as a leading tourist destination 40% of the tourists come from the UK with the US and Canada making up the next large groups of visitors to the island topic etymology the name Barbados is from either the Portuguese term owes Barbados or the Spanish equivalent lost Barbados both meaning the bearded ones it is unclear whether bearded refers to the long hanging roots of the bearded fig tree ficus citrifolia indigenous to the island or to the allegedly bearded Caribs who once inhabited the island or more fancifully to a visual impression of a beard formed by the sea foam that sprays over the outlying reefs in 1519 a map produced by the Genoese map maker Visconti Maji ola showed and named barbados in its correct position furthermore the island of Barbuda in the lea words is very similar in name and was once named los Bar Buddhist by the Spanish it is uncertain which european nation arrived first in barbados one lesser-known source points to earlier revealed works predating contemporary sources indicating it could have been the spanish many if not most believed the portuguese enroute to brazil were the first europeans to come upon the island the original name for barbados in the pre-columbian era was each araga named according to accounts by descendants of the indigenous era watkins speaking tribes in other regional areas with possible translations including red land with white teeth or red stone island with teeth outside reefs or simply teeth colloquially Barbadians refer to their home island as beam or other nicknames associated with barbados including Bhim sure the origin is uncertain but several theories exist the National cultural foundation of Barbados says that beam was a word commonly used by slaves and that it derives from the Igbo term bein from bei M meaning my home kindred kind the Igbo phoneme e in the Igbo orthography is very close to the name could have arisen due to the relatively large percentage of enslaved Igbo people from modern-day southeastern Nigeria arriving in Barbados in the 18th century the words beam and BIM sure are recorded in the oxford english dictionary and chambers 20th century dictionaries another possible source for beam is reported to be in the agricultural reporter of the 25th of April 1868 where and Greenwich father of one of the islands most famous scholars Abel Hendy Jones Greenwich suggested the listing of BIM sure as a County of England expressly named were Wiltshire Hampshire Berkshire and Bhim sure lastly in the daily Argosy of Demerara ie Guyana a 1652 there is a reference to beam as a possible corruption of biome the name of a Royalist leader against the Parliamentarians that source suggested the followers of biome became known as bim's and that this became a word for all Barbadians topic history Amerindians settlement of barbados dates to about the fourth to seventh centuries ad by a group known as the salad oeid barranco the Arawaks from south america became dominant around 800 AD and maintained that status until around 1200 in the 13th century the kalanoro island caribs arrived from south america the Spanish and Portuguese briefly claimed Barbados from the late 16th to the 17th centuries the Arawaks are believed to have fled to neighboring islands apart from possibly displacing the Caribs the Spanish and Portuguese made little impact and left the island uninhabited some Arawaks migrated from British Guiana modern-day Guyana in the 19th century and continued to live in Barbados in the very early years 1622 1640s the majority of the labor was provided by European indentured servants mainly English Irish and Scottish with enslaved Africans and enslaved Amerindian providing little of the workforce during the Cromwellian era 1650s this included a large number of prisoners of war vagrants and people who were illicitly kidnapped who were forcibly transported to the island and sold his servants these last two groups were predominantly Irish as several thousand were infamously rounded up by English merchants and sold into servitude in Barbados and other Caribbean islands during this period cultivation of tobacco cotton ginger and indigo was thus handled primarily by European indentured labour until the start of the sugarcane industry in the 1640s and the growing reliance and importation of enslaved Africans persecuted persons of Jewish faith during the Inquisition also settled to Barbados from its English settlement and as Barbados as economy grew Barbados maintained a relatively large measure of local autonomy first as a proprietary colony and later a crown colony the House of Assembly began meeting in 1639 among the islands earliest leading figures was the anglo-dutch Sir William Gordon the 1780 hurricane killed over 4,000 people on Barbados in 1854 a cholera epidemic killed over 20,000 inhabitants at emancipation in 1833 the size of the slave population was approximately 83,000 between 1946 and 1980 Barbados is rate of population growth was diminished by 1/3 because of emigration to Britain topic 16:27 to 1639 topic early English settlement the settlement was established as a proprietary colony and funded by Sir William Gordon a city of London merchants who acquired the title to Barbados and several other islands so the first colonists were actually tenants and much of the profits of their labor returned to court and and his company the first English ship which had arrived on the 14th of May 1625 was captained by John Powell the first settlement began on the 17th of February 16 27 near what is now whole town formerly jamestown by a group led by John Powell's younger brother Henry consisting of 80 settlers and 10 English laborers the latter were young indentured laborers who according to some sources had been abducted effectively making them slaves Gorton's title was transferred to James hay 1st Earl of Carlyle in what was called the great Barbados robbery Carlisle then chose as governor Henry Hawley who established the House of Assembly in 1639 in an effort to appease the planters who might otherwise have opposed his controversial appointment in the period 1640 to 60 the West Indies attracted over two-thirds of the total number of English emigrants to the Americas by 1650 there were 44,000 settlers in the West Indies as compared to 12,000 on the Chesapeake in 23,000 in New England most English arrivals were indentured after five years of labor they were given freedom dues of about 10 liras usually in goods before the mid 1630s they also received five to ten acres of land but after that time the island filled and there was no more free land around the time of Cromwell a number of rebels and criminals were also transported there Timothy Meads of Warwickshire was one of the rebels sent to Barbados at that time before he received compensation for servitude of 1000 acres of land in North Carolina in 1666 parish registers from the 1650s show for the white population four times as many deaths as marriages the death rate was very high before this the mainstay of the infant colony's economy was the growth export of tobacco but tobacco prices eventually fell in the 1630s as chesapeake production expanded topic 16:42 1790 topic England Civil War around the same time fighting during the war of the Three Kingdoms and the interregnum spilled over into Barbados and Barbadian territorial waters the island was not involved in the war until after the execution of Charles the first when the islands government fell under the control of Royalists ironically the governor philip bell remaining loyal to parliament while the Barbadian House of Assembly under the influence of Humphrey while rond supported charles ii to try to bring the recalcitrant colony to heel the commonwealth parliament passed an act on the 3rd of october 1650 prohibiting trade between England and Barbados and because the island also traded with the Netherlands further navigation acts were passed prohibiting any but English vessels trading with Dutch colonies these acts were a precursor to the first anglo-dutch war the Commonwealth of England sent an invasion force under the command of Sir George a skew which arrived in October 1651 after some skirmishing the Royalists in the House of Assembly led by Lord Willoughby surrendered the conditions of the surrender were incorporated into the charter of Barbados treaty avoidance which was signed at the mermaids in oysters on the 17th of January 1652 topic sugarcane the introduction of sugarcane from Dutch Brazil in 1640 completely transformed society and the economy Barbados eventually had one of the world's biggest sugar industries one group instrumental in ensuring the early success of the industry were the Sephardic Jews who had originally been expelled from the Iberian Peninsula to end up in Dutch Brazil as the effects of the new crop increased so did the shift in the ethnic composition of Barbados and surrounding islands the workable sugar plantation required a large investment and a great deal of heavy labour at first Dutch traders supplied the equipment financing and enslaved Africans in addition to transporting most of the sugar to Europe in 1644 the population of Barbados was estimated at 30 thousand of which about 800 were of African descent with the remainder mainly of English descent these English small holders were eventually bought out and the island filled up with large sugar plantations worked by enslaved Africans by 1660 there was near parity with 27 thousand blacks and 26,000 whites by 1666 at least 12,000 white smallholders had been bought out died or left the island many of the remaining whites were increasingly poor by 1680 there were 17 slaves for every indentured servant by 1700 there were 15,000 free whites and 50,000 enslaved Africans due to the increased implementation of slave codes which created differential treatment between Africans and the white workers and ruling planter class the island became increasingly unattractive to poor whites blacker slave codes were implemented in 1661 1676 1682 and 1688 in response to these codes several slave rebellions were attempted or planned during this time but none succeeded nevertheless poor whites who had or acquired the means to emigrate often did so planters expanded their importation of enslaved Africans to cultivate sugarcane one early advocate of slave rights in Barbados was the visiting quaker preacher Alice Kerwin in 1677 for I am persuaded that if they whom thou called I saved be upright hearted to God the Lord God Almighty will set them free in a way that thou knowest not for there is none set free but in Christ Jesus for all other freedom will prove but a bondage topic geography and climate Barbados is situated in the Atlantic Ocean east of the other West Indies Islands Barbados is the easternmost island in the Lesser Antilles it is flat in comparison to its island neighbors to the west the windward islands the island Rises gently to the central highland region with the high point of the nation being mount Halla be in the geological Scotland district 340 meters 1120 feet above sea level in the parish of st. Michael lies Barbados as capital and main city Bridgetown other major towns scattered across the island include whole town in the parish of st. James hoist ins in the parish of Christchurch and speights town in the parish of st. Peter topic geology Barbados lies on the boundary of the South American and the Caribbean plates the subduction of the South American plate beneath the Caribbean plate scraped sediment from the South American plate and deposits it above the subduction zone forming an accretionary prism the rate of this depositing of material allows Barbados to rise at a rate of about 25 millimetres one in per 1,000 years this subduction means geologically the island is composed of coral roughly 90 metres 300 feet thick where reefs formed above the sediment the land slopes in a series of terraces in the West and goes into an incline in the east a large proportion of the island is circled by coral reefs the erosion of limestone in the northeast of the island in the Scotland District has resulted in the formation of various caves and gullies on the Atlantic east coast of the island coastal landforms including stacks have been created due to the limestone composition of the area also notable in the island as the rocky cape known as pico Tenerife or pico de Tenerife a which is named after the fact that the island of Tenerife a in Spain is the first land east of Barbados according to the belief of the locals topic climate the country generally experiences two seasons one of which includes noticeably higher rainfall known as the wet season this period runs from June to November by contrast the dry season runs from December to May annual precipitation ranges between 1,000 and 2,000 300 millimetres 40 and 90 n from December to May the average temperatures range from 21 to 31 degrees Celsius 70 to 88 degrees Fahrenheit while between June and November they range from 23 to 31 degrees Celsius 73 to 88 degrees Fahrenheit on the köppen climate classification scale much of Barbados has regarded as a tropical monsoon climate am however breezes of 12 to 16 km/h 7 to 10 miles per hour abound throughout the year and give barbados a climate which is moderately tropical infrequent natural hazards include earthquakes landslides hurricanes barbados has often spared the worst effects of the region's tropical storms and hurricanes during the rainy season its location in the southeast of the Caribbean region puts the country just outside the principal hurricane strike zone on average a major hurricane strikes about once every 26 years the last significant hit from a hurricane to cause severe damage to Barbados was Hurricane Janet in 1955 in 2010 the island was struck by hurricane Tomas but this caused only minor damage across the country topic environmental issues Barbados is susceptible to environmental pressures as one of the world's most densely populated Isles the government worked during the 1990s to aggressively integrate the growing south coast of the island into the Bridgetown sewage treatment plant to reduce contamination of offshore coral reefs as of the first decade of the 21st century a second treatment plant has been proposed along the island's west coast being so densely populated Barbados has made great efforts to protect its underground aquifers as a coral limestone island Barbados is highly permeable to seepage of surface water into the earth the government has placed great emphasis on protecting the catchment areas that lead directly into the huge network of underground aquifers and streams on occasion illegal squatters have breached these areas and the government has removed squatters to preserve the cleanliness of the underground springs which provide the island's drinking water the government has placed a huge emphasis on keeping Barbados clean with the aim of protecting the environment and preserving offshore coral reefs which surround the island many initiatives to mitigate human pressures on the coastal regions of Barbados and seas come from the coastal zone management unit C's EMU Barbados has nearly 90 kilometres 56 miles of coral reefs just offshore and two protected marine parks have been established off the west coast overfishing is another threat which faces Barbados although on the opposite side of the Atlantic and some 4800 kilometres 3,000 miles west of Africa Barbados is one of many places in the American continent that experience heightened levels of mineral dust from the Sahara Desert some particularly intense dust episodes have been blamed partly for the impacts on the health of coral reefs surrounding Barbados or asthmatic episodes but evidence has not wholly supported the former such claim topic wildlife Barbados says host to four species of nesting Turtles green turtles loggerheads hawksbill turtles and leatherbacks and has the second largest Hawksbill turtle breeding population in the Caribbean the driving of vehicles on beaches can crush nests buried in the sand and such activities should be avoided investing areas Barbados is also the host to the green monkey the green monkey is found in West Africa from Senegal to the Volta River it has been introduced to the Cape Verde Islands off northwestern Africa and the West Indian islands of Saint Kitts Nevis Saint Martin and Barbados it was introduced to the West Indies in the late 17th century when slave trade ships traveled to the Caribbean from West Africa topic demographics the 2010 national census conducted by the Barbados Statistical Service reported a resident population of 277 thousand eight hundred twenty one of which 130 3,018 were male and one hundred forty four thousand eight hundred three were female the life expectancy for Barbados residents as of 2011 as 74 years the average life expectancy has 72 years for males in 77 years for females 2005 Barbados in Japan had the highest per-capita occurrences of centenarians in the world the crude birth rate is twelve point two three births per 1000 people and the crude death rate is eight point three nine deaths per 1000 people the infant mortality rate is eleven point six three infant deaths per 1000 live births topic ethnic

derogatory by some generally pagans recognize and accept all children of the island as bagans and refer to each other as such the biggest communities outside the afro-caribbean community are the indo-guyanese an important part of the economy due to the increase of immigrants from partner country Guyana there are reports of a growing in doboj on diaspora originating from Guyana and India starting around 1990 predominantly from southern India and Hindu states they are growing in size but smaller than the equivalent communities in Trinidad in Guyana euro bagans 4% of the population have settled in Barbados since the 17th century originating from England Ireland and Scotland in 1643 there were 30 7,200 White's in Barbados 86% of the population more commonly they are known as white bagans euro bagans introduced folk music such as Irish music and Highland music and certain place names such as Scotland a mountainous region among white Barbadians there exists an underclass known as red legs mostly the descendants of Irish indentured labourers and prisoners imported to the island many additionally moved on to become the earliest settlers of modern-day North and South Carolina in the United States Chinese Barbadians are a small portion of Barbados as asian demographics most if not all first arrived in the 1940s during the Second World War many Chinese bagans have the surnames chin chin orly although other surnames prevail in certain areas of the island Chinese food and culture is becoming part of everyday Bojan culture Lebanese and Syrians form the islands Arab Barbadian community which is overwhelmingly Christian Arab the Muslim Arab minority among Arab Barbadian make up a small percentage of the overall minority Muslim Barbadian population the majority of the Lebanese and Syrians arrived in Barbados through trade opportunities their numbers are falling due to emigration to other countries Jews arrived in Barbados just after the first settlers in 1627

is spoken by most Barbadians in everyday life especially in informal settings in its full-fledged form Bojan sounds markedly different from the standard english heard on the island the degree of intelligibility between bhajan and general English for the general English speaker depends on the level of creolized vocabulary in idioms Abidjan speaker may be completely unintelligible to an English

ALL FASHION NOVA DENIM JEANS ARE
hey everyone its Angela and welcome back to my channel so in today's video I'm doing a fashion Nova Jean try on haul because a couple years ago I posted a video similar to this one and I swear it got 45,000 views I think and you guys were exploding in the comments asking me a million questions about sizing and fit so I figured since I just got some new fashion Nova jeans and some different styles as well that I do another passion Nova try on haul for you guys so if you have questions about sizing and what size you should get just like my last video you can leave those in the comments and I promise I will answer your question and in today's video I'm going to be showing you jeans that are a size 1 3 & 5 but I hope that you guys love this video if you're new to my channel be sure to give it a thumbs up and subscribe it really helps me out and I hope that you guys love it ah yea let's just jump into it alright on to the fun part these are all of the jeans and like I said I wanted to make sure that I showed you different styles different colors I have jeans I have black jeans I have light washed dark wash so for the first pair of jeans these are the most recent jeans that I have purchased from fashion Nova and that's why I want to show you guys because I know it's still on the website I got these in a size 3 and these are the flared jeans that are really high rise so this is what they look like and I honestly love this flared Jean trend I think everyone should keep their flared jeans in their closet because because trends always come back and clearly these flared jeans came back and my mom and my aunt's they all love this trend so much they're so glad that it came back but this is what the jeans look like on and they obviously flare out I am 5 foot 4 and unfortunately they were too long even with wedges on so I was going to get them hemmed but I really wanted to wear them I didn't have time to so I actually ended up ended up just cutting them and I don't mind that look because I think it gives it a more what's a call like relaxed kind of look to the bottom so I just cut them and it's spraying out a little bit but I like that style and I also like the fact that these jeans don't have holes anywhere else like they're just regular jeans no holes because I think they're very versatile and then the last thing that I wanted to tell you guys about flared jeans and why I wanted them so badly so you guys probably aren't as neurotic as me but when I wear a top I like my shoes to match and I had some like funky colored tops in my wardrobe and I wanted to wear them but I had no shoes that really went I don't know if you guys struggle with this I'm just a little crazy but so that's why I absolutely love flared jeans because you can't see what shoes you're wearing so you can get a get away with pretty much any top any pattern top any crazy color and I just wear the comfiest shoes that I have in my closet which are some high wedges and it completes outfits so not just me but those are the first pair of jeans so I love this next pair of jeans they're also a size three these are very dark wash skinny jeans with a little bit of distressing on them as you can see they have a little bit of holes but not like anything too distracting or too crazy which is kind of nice so they still go with everything they're very flattering on and this pair in particular have like a tiny bit of a tighter fit I don't know why that why that is but I noticed that for fashion nova some size 3 jeans feel more compressed and tight compared to other size 3 jeans so it's obviously pretty tricky but generally speaking if I had to tell you guys my average best size for fashion OVA is a size 3 so I'm 5 foot 4 and I'm about 128 pounds I have a more athletic muscular build so I do have thighs and a butt and I really do love how fashioned OVA really accentuates all of my features so those are the next pair okay so now let's move on to a size one pair of jeans as you can see these are size one and these ones definitely are not my favorite because they're not as high-waisted as the previous two that I showed you but these are a great pair of jeans for what I want to be comfortable so these are the stretchy as pair that I have and once again it's kind of tricky because I've had size one jeans that were extremely extremely tight on me but these ones are like a stretchy material so they fit just fine so just be careful with that I would steer clear of their sail jeans those are those are the ones that tend to not have any stretch and I've told I tell everyone in my previous fashion Nova video about that because everyone's asking me so many questions on that previous video that went viral and I am always tell them to steer clear of the sail jeans because their material is enough stretchy but these have a little hole in the knee area and they're very nice as well they have the skinny jean it's like a typical skinny jean on the bottom and it still does make your butt look really nice so now let's move on to some black jeans that I have worn so much over the years I probably need to get a new pair these are a size three and I believe these are the canape jeans because I've worn them so much but just a reminder everything will be linked down below this video is not sponsored it's just to help you guys because clearly the last one you guys had lots and lots of questions and I really do love fashion Nova um I la I love them mostly for their jeans if I'm being honest so these are the block canopy jeans and the cool thing about these is how simple they are and also the fact that they come in a lot of different colors because I know that they come in white as well and I'm pretty interested in trying the white I think those would be beautiful but these are black and they're such a staple when I first bought them I really did like the little slits in the knees I still liked them but now that I'm getting a little bit quote-unquote older I prefer things that don't have holes anymore so I do like that the slits are just very simple and not too in-your-face but yeah they're not my favorite but I do love the the waist and the fit so if you don't mind little slits and the knees the the waist is just like perfect like I kind of have a small waist and all of these jeans just fit my waist so amazing and boy these canopy chains make your butt look really good I mean that's kind of what fashion Nova is known for obviously but those especially so now I promise you guys I would show you a size 5 my weight has pretty much stayed pretty darn consistent over the years but you know we all have our little stages and at one point I had to order a size 5 when I a few years ago when I was a little bit bigger but these are what the jeans look like and these ones are out there if I'm feeling like a rock and roll like grungy day this is when I wear these and I pull these out and I still do I still wear these and they they still fit pretty good so these have a ton of holes in them a ton of ton of holes in them all along the Jean these are extremely high waisted they they might be probably just as high-waisted as those flared jeans so very high rise very nice for crop tops and things like that and they have this skinny leg so that was the last pair of jeans and I really do hope that this video helps you guys with choosing your sizes and the perfect fit for your body I really do wish that fashion novo would sponsor me after all these years I've done so many fashion Nova videos so say a little prayer for me maybe that'll happen one day but I hope that you guys love this video um I've been like just trying to figure out what you guys want to so leave video suggestions down below and it really does mean so much to me if you subscribe so thank you guys so much for watching I hope that you guys loved this video and I will see you all very soon bye guys [Music]

Liberating Mr.Franklin
[Music] the [ __ ] took you so long here aren't I some of us work you know should try it sometime well I needed to run something by you before the rest of the guys got here yeah well I'm here when the rest of them getting here be any minute now well shoot what you got in your mind I'll just wait till the rest of the guys get here now so how you feeling about this new guy I mean he's new but I think he's got a good head out his shoulders I know man what scares me could be a little too good you think he's going to screw us you remember the kid we used for the harbor job stop being so paranoid remind me again Max what happened nothing good chance nothing good I don't feel like taking another late night trip out to the boonies you know what I'm saying hey that's enough we said we'd never talk about that again just saying man need to be careful I don't think he's going to go south on us I don't think he's going to screw us I think he'll be fine well he picked a kid he goes south on us he's not the only one going [ __ ] does that mean the [ __ ] is this I thought we agreed not to talk about this until the day of the job well the rookie was iffy about a few things so we figured we go over it one more time you know makes sense Jesus let's hurry up and get this done where's the CB Scout anyway he want us all to get together in one place and he's not here you still trust him Max yeah I don't like this see man what's up it's only been 10 minutes give the kid a break both of you were late you hear me bitching break I kid ain't here in 5 minutes I'm going to give him a clean break don't jinx this you [ __ ] sorry I'm late fellas yeah the [ __ ] took you so long got suck in a little traffic on the way here oh yeah just P four in the suburbs I got stuck behind the school bus you know stop go stop go I ain't got time for this all right boys so we hit the bank tomorrow it's their pickup day when they get rid of all the old currency they bring in fresh new stuff right so we're taking two cars uh me and the rook in the first car you two guys in the second car we're taking the stolen car and when we get to the bank we're going to go inside and pose as customers chance will be at the counter and I'll be opening a new account with the bank manager yeah I got that so far so when everything's all set and everybody's in place Max is going to come in and take the guard right then you also got to remember they can't push the silent alarm while robber is in progress It's done company policy wait wait what that doesn't make any sense well it works like this kid during a bank robbery all the money is no liability as soon as that button is pushed it's a life inest situation so in essence the customers could literally turn around and Sue the bank for putting them in in that situation or get shot [ __ ] crazy man yeah we know so chance don't forget about the mark bills in each of the to drawers a guy said there's a stack of 20s and brown bands in each of them yeah no [ __ ] those are the mark bills last thing we need is to be walking out there like smurch just before him cocky on us sick [ __ ] chance and that's why we're bringing the magnetic stud finder exactly so Dane can use it to pull the ink I out of the fresh batch 100 I look at all the employees tell them to hit the deck Gather in the middle of the floor and throw me their cell phones so I tell all the customers the same and round up all the cells I'm in the center of the bank making sure nobody gets out of hand so what am I doing this whole time are you serious are you [ __ ] serious what do you mean I've been listening I just haven't heard my name yet you're the Goddamn Lookout how many [ __ ] times we got to go over this get your [ __ ] together yeah the look out got you just didn't know if there was more to it relax kid it's a big job if you could handle that we'll all be golden so I jump on the counter chance gets some money from the registers Dane's going to grab a bank manager and head into the Vault we'll check the safety deposit boxes and we'll grab the magnetic stud finder we'll use the stud finder to pull the ink pack should be about a thre minute Mark then start wrapping things up well whichever comes first you know we either have everything or time runs out we get the [ __ ] out of there no screwing around we got about four minutes to do this so once that time runs out then we run out we all know it takes the cops in this town to respond to anything even if they're tipped off so what if someone does come what then no one should come and if they do we just go to plan B which is come on we talked about this a thousand times I know I just want to be sure one of the reasons why we chose this place is cuz of the stretch of woods behind it where comes to worse run through there you pick us up on the back road hopefully nobody sees us I know it sucks but it's a plan B so what happens when someone from the bank doesn't cooperate look that ain't our problem and what they do it's their fault not ours you know he's right it's no one's fault but their own it's all about controlling the situation so how many times have you guys done this before maybe we have maybe we haven't all we know is we have enough experience to do it and that should be our Focus right now ever had to kill anybody in your past experiences please the [ __ ] is your problem can you keep asking so many goddamn questions about what we've done before it's your deal man you haven't liked me since Max brought me on board cuz I don't [ __ ] like you it's like you're wearing a wire or

Christ I wouldn't wear a wire I'm no [ __ ] rat [ __ ] prove it I don't have to prove [ __ ] how do I know you're not wearing a wire cuz we brought you on needle dick not the other way around if I was wearing a wire the cops would already be in here they can't let a form in a dangerous situation like this looks like you're about to kill again what are you trying to say nothing at all all I'm trying to say is if I was wearing a wire why would they be waiting this long to bust in he's got a point kid be sleeping a lot better tonight for me for sure not going to lie I would too happy now so everybody still in you know me two titties in a bucket [ __ ] it yeah I need the cash I'm in it's on you Rook you handle your [ __ ] tomorrow yeah I got it all right let's get out of here hey man hold

conquering armies of the sikhs under Ranjit Singh of the Punjab the sending four centuries of Muslim rule under the Mughals in the Afghan regime as the Kashmiri had suffered under the Afghans they initially welcomed the new sikh rulers however the sikh governors turned out to be hard taskmasters and Sikh rule was generally considered oppressive protected perhaps by the remoteness of Kashmir from the capital of the Sikh Empire in Lahore the Sikhs enacted a number of anti Muslim laws which included handing out death sentences for cow slaughter closing down the Jamia Masjid in Srinagar and banning the Adhan the public Muslim called to prayer Kashmir had also now begun to attract European visitors several of whom wrote of the abject poverty of the vast Muslim peasantry and of the exorbitant taxes under the Sikhs high taxes according to some contemporary accounts had depopulated large tracts of the countryside allowing only 1/16 of the cultivable land to be cultivated many Kashmiri peasants migrated to the plains of the Punjab however after a famine in 1832 the Sikhs reduced the land tax to half the produce of the land and also began to offer interest-free loans to

hold himself aloof till the Battle of sobre in 1846 when he appeared as a useful mediator and the trusted advisor of Sir Henry Lawrence to treaties were concluded by the first the state of Lahore ie West Punjab handed over to the British as equivalent for one crore indemnity the hill countries between the rivers bees and Indus by the second the British made over to gulab Singh for 75 lakhs all the hilly or mountainous country situated to the east of the Indus and the west of the Ravi ie the vale of Kashmir drafted by a treaty and a bill of sale and constituted between 1820 and 1858 the princely state of kashmir and jammu as it was first called combined disparate regions religions and ethnicities to the east Ladakh was ethnically and culturally Tibetan and its inhabitants practiced Buddhism to the south Jammu had a mixed population of Hindus Muslims and Sikhs in the heavily populated central Kashmir Valley the population was overwhelmingly Sunni Muslim however there was also a small but influential Hindu minority the Kashmiri Brahmins are Pandits to the northeast sparsely populated Baltistan had a population nicly related to Ladakh but which practiced Shia Islam to the north also sparsely populated gilgit agency was an area of diverse mostly Shia groups and to the west punch was Muslim but of different ethnicity than the Kashmir Valley after the Indian rebellion of 1857 in which Kashmir sided with the British and the subsequent assumption of direct rule by Great Britain the princely state of Kashmir came under the suzerainty of the British crown in the British census of India of 1941 Kashmir registered a Muslim majority population of 77 percent a Hindu population of 20% and a sparse population of Buddhists and Sikhs comprising the remaining 3% that same year prem nath bose oz a Kashmiri Pandit journalist wrote the poverty of the Muslim masses is appalling most are landless laborers working as serfs for absentee hindu landlords almost the whole brunt of official corruption is borne by the Muslim masses under the Hindu rule Muslims faced hefty taxation discrimination in the legal system and were forced into labor without any wages conditions in the princely state caused a significant migration of people from the Kashmir Valley to Punjab of British India for almost a century until the census a small Hindu elite had ruled over a vast and impoverished Muslim peasantry driven into docility by chronic and dead Indus to landlords and moneylenders having no education besides nor awareness of Rights the Muslim peasants had no political representation until the 1930s topic 1947 and 1948 topic Ranveer Singh's grandson Hari Singh who had ascended the throne of Kashmir in 1925 was the reigning monarch in 1947 at the conclusion of British rule of the subcontinent and the subsequent partition of the British Indian empire into the newly independent Dominion of India and the dominion of Pakistan in the run-up to 1947 there were two major parties in the princely State the National Conference and the Muslim Conference the National Conference was led by the charismatic Kashmiri leader Sheikh Abdullah who tilted towards favoring the accession of Jammu and Kashmir to India whilst the Muslim Conference tilted towards favoring the accession of the princely state to Pakistan the National Conference enjoyed popular support in the Kashmir Valley whilst the Muslim Conference was more popular in the Jammu region the Hindus and Sikhs of the state were firmly in favor of joining India as were the Buddhists however the sentiments of the state s Muslim population were divided scholar Christopher Sneden states that the Muslims of Western Jammu and also the Muslims of the frontier districts province strongly wanted Jammu and Kashmir to join Pakistan the ethnic Kashmiri Muslims of the Kashmir Valley on the other hand were ambivalent about Pakistan possibly due to their secular nature although Sneden claims that the best informed english-language newspaper on the state s Affairs the CMG reported on the 21st of October 1947 that there had been a massive upsurge in favor of Pakistan in the southern section of the Kashmir Valley which was the stronghold of the socialist kazuma's door conference party led by Kashmiri Pandit prem nath bose oz many supporters of National Conference and Sheikh Abdullah also did support Jinnah in the Muslim League conversely The Times reported that Sheikh Abdullah s influence in Srinagar was paramount the fact that Kashmir ease were not particularly enamored with the idea of Pakistan reflected the failure of the idea of pan-islamic identity and satisfying the political urges of Kashmiri at the same time there was also a lack of interest in merging with Indian nationalism according to Burton Stein's history of India Kashmir was neither as large nor as old an independent state as Hyderabad it had been created rather offhandedly by the British after the first defeat of the Sikhs in 1846 as a reward to a former official who had sided with the British the Himalayan kingdom was connected to India through a district the Punjab but its population was 77% Muslim and it shared a boundary with Pakistan hence it was anticipated that the Maharaja would accede to Pakistan when the British paramountcy ended on 14 to 15 August when he hesitated to do this Pakistan launched a guerrilla onslaught meant to frighten its ruler into submission instead the Maharaja appealed to Mountbatten for assistance and the governor-general agreed on the condition that the ruler accede to India Indian soldiers entered kashmir and drove the Pakistani sponsor two regulars from all but a small section of the state the United Nations was then invited to mediate the Kuril the UN mission insisted that the opinion of Kashmiris must be ascertained while India insisted that no referendum could occur until all of the state had been cleared of irregular Sh in the last days of 1948 a ceasefire was agreed under UN auspices however since the referendum demanded by the UN was never conducted relations between India and Pakistan soured and eventually led to two more wars over Kashmir in 1965 in 1999 India has control of about half the area of the former princely state of Jammu and Kashmir while Pakistan controls a third of the region the northern areas in Kashmir according to encyclopædia Britannica although there was a clear Muslim majority in Kashmir before the 1947 partition and its economic cultural and geographic contiguity with the Muslim majority area of the Punjab in Pakistan could be convincingly demonstrated the political developments during and after the partition resulted in a division of the region Pakistan was left with territory that although basically Muslim in character was thinly populated relatively inaccessible and economically underdeveloped the largest Muslim group situated in the valley of Kashmir and estimated to number more than half the population of the entire region lay in indian-administered territory with its former outlets via the Jhelum Valley route blocked topic current status and political divisions topic the eastern region of the former princely state of Kashmir is also involved in a boundary dispute that began in the late 19th century and continues into the 21st although some boundary agreements were signed between Great Britain Afghanistan and Russia over the northern borders of Kashmir China never accepted these agreements and China s official position has not changed following the communist revolution of 1949 that established the people s Republic of China by the mid 1950s the Chinese army had entered the northeast portion of Ladakh by 1956 57 they had completed a military road through the Aksai Chin area to provide better communication between Shin Jang and Western Tibet India's belated discovery of this road led to border clashes between the two countries that culminated in the sino-indian war of October 1962 the region is divided amongst three countries in a territorial dispute Pakistan controls the Northwest portion northern areas in Kashmir India controls the central and southern portion Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh and the people s Republic of China controls the northeastern portion Aksai Chin and the trans Karakoram tract India controls the majority of the see a conglaturation cluding the saltoro ridge passes whilst Pakistan controls the lower territory just southwest of the saltoro ridge India controls 100 1338 square kilometers 39,000 127 square miles of the disputed

NWO=FASCIST=OBOMB=DEMANDS FBI USE SOCIAL MEDIA TO SPY ON AMERICANS 24/7.wmv
FBI latest government agency to target social media this is behind the headlines on global research TV the US Federal Bureau of Investigation posted a request for information last month calling on IT companies to demonstrate their ability to design software for monitoring mapping and analyzing social media the RFI posted to the government's federal business opportunities website in January reveals the FBI's desire for software capable of monitoring social media websites like Facebook and Twitter to provide alerts and analysis for publicly posted information the software would require the ability to geospatially locate bad actors or groups and analyze their movements vulnerabilities limitations and possible adverse actions detect instances of deception and intent or action by bad actors and develop pattern of life matrices to support law enforcement planning and enforcement operations the FBI is far from the only US government agency to express an interest in monitoring online social media in October 2010 the Electronic Frontier Foundation obtained documents on social network surveillance under the Freedom of Information Act showing that the Department of Homeland Security has established a social network monitoring center for the collection and analysis of online public communications last year the Electronic Privacy Information Center obtained more FOIA documents regarding the DHS social media surveillance showing that the department has contracted General Dynamics to monitor social networks and even the comment sections of various news websites for media reports that reflect adversely on the US government or DHS also last year the Federal Reserve Bank of New York issued a request for proposal for sentiment analysis and social media monitoring software the request called on companies to develop software to monitor social media such as tweets Facebook posts and YouTube comments to analyze what people are thinking and saying about the United States privately owned central bank as Julie Leveque notes in a recent global research article however even more ominous than these passive social media monitoring programs are the various government programs for creating and spreading propaganda through this new medium in February of last year it was revealed that the US Air Force had solicited persona management software from contractors through an FBO request the contract called for vendors to develop software which allowed up to 50 users to manage up to 500 online personas which would be created with background history supporting details and cyber presences that are technically culturally and geographically consistent the request also called for virtual private servers in specific geographic locations that could allow the social media persona to appear to be from a different part of the globe when news of the proposal broke and several large websites began to draw attention to it it was quickly taken offline last July DARPA the pentagon's research project wing announced the social media in strategic communication program the announcement included language specifically calling for the ability to influence operations in the environment in which the Pentagon operates meaning that it will be used to launch counter messaging campaigns online supposedly to combat the spread of information harmful to the Pentagon's interests last month's FBI requests for information to crosses the line from passive monitoring into active operations one of the desired attributes of the software that the FBI wants to develop is the ability to predict likely developments in the situation or future action taken by bad actors by analyzing patterns and associations in the targets online communications once envisioned as a science fiction scenario America's top law enforcement agency is now attempting to integrate pre-crime detection into their social media analysis responses to the requests are due next month for more on this story and other breaking news and current events please go to global research CA for more research and analysis by james corbett please go to corbett report com

FIRE!!! | My Trucking Life | Vlog #2577 | July 10th, 2022
what's up everybody what a beautiful day for trucking in the uk live from the m4 westbound baby you are watching trucker josh vlogs enjoy [Music] do [Music] [Applause] another day's here it's delivery day i have to del deliver that load we picked up in edmonton the other day it goes to gretna manitoba which is a town right on the u.s border south of here this was highway 305 that we just turned onto it connects highway 59 and highway 75 in southern manitoba 75 is the highway that turns into interstate 29 once you get to the u.s for my american friends you can sort of visualize where we're at if you follow i-29 all the way north into canada turned into the 75 takes you right up into winnipeg but we're not going to winnipeg we're actually going right to the us border so gretna is a small little town in yonzi on the other side of the river just i guess that's west of the red river when we say the river in manitoba i'm referring to the red river just got this small low it's about seven skids i mean i showed it to you on the way up here right if you saw my past videos every once in a while you'll see in my videos on the top left of your screen there'll be a little link that pops up there the first link that pops up early in the video is usually a link to my playlist that has all of my tjv series from number one all the way to the one we're on today which is what 2577 somewhere in there somewhere i don't know somewhere around there you can watch them all in order that way if you'd like to uh and other links pop up to my last four videos other than that and then at the end of the video there's two links that'll pop up on your screen as well i'll take you to some other other content of mine uh that put up recently been doing this for quite a while if you're new don't forget to subscribe follow my life daily as a truck driver i'm based at a southeast manitoba in canada it's just above uh western northwestern minnesota usually i got my dog diesel with me but today is just a little day trip so it's not gonna take too long we're gonna go there take the tarp off they're gonna take off their seven skids they'll roll up the tarps i gotta bring this trailer back to our yard and then i go home simple day today tomorrow we're heading down to fargo in north dakota with a load of lumber so i got emptied very quickly we're back here in uh i almost called it belgoni just getting i'm in uh saint agath manitoba met a couple of followers here and viewers uh i came out here from all the way in the southwest corner of manitoba so hey again to you guys thanks for running over here to say hi my fuel economy this is what i've been waiting for always here with that light load with the wind pushing me most of the way we did really good we got under 30 liters per 100 kilometers and i'll convert it right away to miles per gallon right away for you barely but we got under 30. 29.99 liters per hundred kilometers that's good and check this out let's do this to uh let's convert this to america speak for my friends in the us uh liters 29.99 liters per 100 kilometers in u.s miles per gallon not the regular gallons the u.s gallon the freedom gallons freedom gowns u.s gallons that's what they like to call them anyways okay it's not telling me usually it tells me right away two u.s oh to us miles per gallon got excited here i typed it in wrong confused 7.843 miles per us gallon 7.8 miles per gallon and we got paid full load for that load too cha ching ka chow nice gonna write this in my book what should we fill up for 517 liters i'm very happy with that that was that was a good week have a good week so tomorrow i got a load of lumber it's already waiting for us at our yard uh that's taking me down to fargo north dakota so what i'm gonna do is i'm gonna bring this empty flatbed back to our yard drop it hook on to my loaded lumber if i have to pull it out tie it down get it ready for tomorrow and then we'll go back to our shop and uh probably give old blue a little bit of a bath if i have time by that point it's 2 30 right now i want to enjoy the day at home yet too this is sort of my weekend today just this afternoon because it's sunday when i'm filming this and tomorrow is back to work already so i want to make sure that uh i do get home at a good time so without delay let's be on our way oh window down it is humid and hot out today it is a july summer day and i love it that was a really good week i'll take more of those please you know who you are you load gods out there [Music] that was wonderful good week to be trucking the weather was great the wind was in my favor good loads i had sacrificed my weekend but that's okay i get a longer weekend next weekend because of our ivf transfer so i'll be home by wednesday evening and then i'll be home till the following monday so thursday friday saturday sunday so i'll take this weekend next weekend i'll get two weekends and one boy having the windows down doesn't cool anything down at all it's like a heater blowing in there i thought canada was cold trucker josh half the year yeah and half a year the sun won't leave us alone it just doesn't go away this is our new load and sometimes that happens it's not a big deal i'll show you how you can fix it you uh need to have yourself a like a hand big like a big commercial hand stapler like a piece of cardboard or something like that and you just staple the cardboard over on top of that and it holds it down but uh yeah that happens from time to time doesn't look pretty though this load came in from saskatchewan here in our yard i'm gonna be taking it the rest of the way down to fargo north dakota i'm just gonna scale it right now and uh check to make sure that the weights are good with my trucks i don't worry about that tomorrow yet and if everything's good i'm going to tie it down and go home go to the shop and then go home so to scale it this is our scale here i've shown you it before it's very handy having this in our yard the display on here flips forwards and backwards uh like a mirror image that you come through this way towards us here now right and in your mirror you can see it when it's flipped so i'm going to put you guys down here so that you can see me as i come onto the scale you'll also be able to see [Music] how heavy i am i need you guys to stay here okay don't let the wind blow you off please this is my good gopro you know what that's a bad idea i had you balanced on here and uh i don't want you falling in there okay i don't know how i'd get you back look how big this thing is you'd be like the bottom there there'd be no way to get you out might have to cut the ball off okay bad idea josh let's find a different spot for you where you can see that if i had a piece of wood i could put on top of there you know i bet you i could find something thank you i could find something give me a minute you think that'll work maybe i guess we'll find out the joys of behind the scenes with trucker josh balance this on here that way you can't fall in there and i can put you right here and then you can see me go over the scale okay i think that's gonna work promise me you'll hold on okay don't let this wood fall all right this is uh that's that's how that's how it's gonna be you got to take risks in life to get ahead okay [Music] of course it fell down [Music] so we got our steer tires on the scale right now just the steers i'm allowed to have 12 000 pounds on this axle 9 920 pounds okay yes i'm allowed 34 000 pounds in the u.s on my drive tires those two axles behind the truck that's the drive tires i was at 29 920 now i've got the trailer back here it's called tandem because there's two axles i'm allowed 34 000 as well and we're 31 540 so there's a little more weight on these than there are on those over there if i had been there in saskatchewan when this was loaded i would have definitely gotten them to load this freight further forward which would have put more weight on my truck and less on here but we're legal nonetheless the reason you want more weight on your truck than on your trailer is because you want to carry the weight you don't want to pull it or another way of saying is you you want to carry the majority of the weight and not pull the majority of the weight what this does when my trailer axles have more weight on it than my truck axles it gives a very bumpy ride every time i hit a bridge connection my truck will go over it and then my trailer will go over and it'll wanna call it a donkey kick and over every bump it'll always donkey kick me so it's gonna be a little bit of a rougher ride going down nothing too unmanageable it's not gonna be that bad but it's also worse for fuel economy and in wintertime it's worse for traction you want as much traction on your drive tires as possible because that's what's going to get you moving on the snow and ice if you have more weight back here you're just going to sit spinning on the snow and ice so it's always a good practice if you have a choice go right up to the max legal weight with full tanks on the truck whatever's left over put it on the trailer you'll have the smoothest ride you'll have the most traction it's just it's the correct way to do it not not that there's anything wrong with the way this is loaded it's just it could have been loaded further forward but this is legal and uh it's manageable not gonna be a big deal we'll run with it there's nobody here to adjust it for me right now i'm the only one in the yard there's one other guy here but it'll be fine and that i'm gonna bring along my uh stapler and some cardboard pieces tomorrow i'm going to staple the cardboard on top of that to the wood so that keeps that from flapping around everywhere it's it's either that or we rip it all the way off it doesn't have to be on there it's just it should be it is what it is the wind gets underneath it and rips it up pulled myself behind the tent here the wind is coming from that way this way so i hid myself behind the tent here so i can strap without the wind so i'm out of the wind and when i'm throwing the straps over the wind doesn't mess around with me as much but yeah i'll show you how to uh how i fixed that tomorrow uh it's very simple like you guys get what i meant right with the cardboard you could also use anything else that a staple will shoot through uh you just put it back down where it was right and then you put the piece of cardboard over top of here or a piece of rubber a piece of anything anything that the staple can go through you put it on here on the corner and you staple that on there to the wood and then that holds that on there right because if you just put the staple through this stuff the wind will rip right through that the staples will rip through it and it'll be back to flying around like a crazy wild inflatable flailing arms man in no time you know what's frustrating about wind it's everywhere i parked behind the tent here because the wind was coming from that way right this way well guess what it's doing now it's going around there it's coming in here now it's going around the corner i still got a mess of it and deal with it no use complaining about it because i've tried you can complain about it all day and it won't stop and then i don't know where the off switch is i haven't found the off switch for the wind the prairies it seems to be locked in the on position it's always windy got her all tied down ready to go tomorrow another way you can solve the issue of the flopping uh covers on here is with just an extra strap i put an extra strap in the center there and then that pins that corner down that pins that corner down the wind might still rip pull it out of there a little bit but it won't flop around as badly so that's one option you might not even need to staple it on again this way this might hold it right that's one way you can fix that but look how shredded this is in the front here already from the wind see that it's only being held on by that little corner there so i'm gonna bring my stapler in anyways just staple it on there so that it stays stays tight on there i don't know why they make them like that but any of you guys who haul lumber know what i'm talking about it doesn't happen on every load but sometimes the wind catches it just right and they staple these things on right this is ripped through already see this is going to rip open soon too they do staple them on and they are there where can i show you this usually they put little like corners on it but they didn't in this case ah okay so that makes sense why this is ripping off very often they'll have uh like little plastic circles on here and then they'll staple through the plastic circles that the circle sort of stays on there like a washer almost i see they didn't do that on this i don't know if they always do it like this but that's why this is ripping off see this is all ripped too that's why okay some more staples in there these are all ripped and this is all gonna shred open okay yeah i guess it all depends uh maybe uh you got a little expensive getting the little plastic circles those washer type things to hold it on there but i mean if you don't put those on there this is what happens the shreds open and what can you do right oh what was that what was that just got attacked by a weird bug it's coming back i'll fight you what's right here i'll fight you what are you doing landing on me see this thing land somewhere so i can see how ugly you are you can't fly forever man there he is what is it what is it what are you man whatever that was right on my neck hate bugs that's why i could never live in australia that's why i live in the northern part of the empire or whatever you call it a commonwealth i live in the northern commonwealth you guys down there in australia doing the lord's work living down there with all those killer animals man i don't know how you do it i'd love to come visit you one day but uh i'm gonna need some kind of steve irwin type of guide because it's gotta be fun but someone's gonna have to protect me i mean i'll fight a crocodile but i'll probably lose imagine me canadian just going off crikey look at the size of that one some air conditioning all right jokes aside let's go park this trailer let's get this truck in the shop and let's go home i've been saying that for a while now already i want to go home it's already uh host four o'clock now i'll probably only get home like six at least i'll get the evening tonight i guess [Music] but remember next weekend i skipped this weekend but i get two weekends next weekend we gave her a quick rinse still dirty not clean but rinsed got all the bugs off at least don't have time to polish her tonight but at least she doesn't have to go to sleep covered in bugs [Music] so in the morning i'm gonna take that load of lumber down to fargo and uh see what happens from there i don't know what my reload is apparently there is a plan for me already so there's a reload they just haven't sent it through to me yet i have no idea what it is i don't really care so i think he's bringing me up to yorkton saskatchewan unless that got changed but you have a good night all right [Music] just on my way home from the shop and we got some action going on on main street and steinbach today look at this i dare say there's a fire that's not good looks like it's at the feed mill here right on main street yikes [Music] crazy just waiting for traffic to move along here but obviously everyone including myself as being the biggest rubbernecker in the history of steinbeck got one fire engine there blowing water on it already it might not be the feed mill might be this strip mall here oh we got an audience look at all the people gathered here oh the whole town came out to see oh no it's not the feed mill oh my it's uh it's the strip mall dude man the red hand still means something look at all these people nothing better to do on a sunday i guess sunday mata slope is cancelled you could see the smoke from our backyard here before if you follow me on facebook you probably saw the the post about reporter chevy as actually a photo bomb that he did i was standing over there trying to get a picture of the smoke to show my family how we could see it from our place and chevy was so excited that i just got home he jumped up in front of the camera and photo bombed it but yeah the fire looks like it's destroying a strip mall on main street there's a flooring store in there there's two paint stores so the smoke is considered toxic there's a pet store and we went out to get ice cream this evening yet and we heard from a few people that only one of the pets in the pet store survived i don't know if that's true or not that's not confirmed or anything that's just hearsay on the street i hope it's not true but uh i didn't think they had pets in that pet store i thought it was just like a pet food store where you can go and get pet food i'm pretty sure that's true so i don't know if any pets died but still there's a pet food story i feel like it's a two paint store so you got to be careful with the smoke outside it's drifting away from my house uh but it is drifting towards my sister's house on the other side of town so uh everyone's you know obviously we got to keep our windows closed and uh if the smoke drifts our way and we're supposed to go inside and shut off any vents that are sucking air from like our furnaces that are sucking air from outside and stuff or i guess people have furnace filters so i don't know that if those toxins would get caught up in the filter i i don't know better safe than sorry yeah it's devastating that's uh actually our paint store that's where we get the paint for our house i don't know if you've noticed but we patched up the paint on our house and we're uh in the middle of it i was about to go there in the next week or so and get another can of paint so we can paint the whole house let me show you what i'm talking about the smoke's not drifting this way i'll go outside and show you we've had uh problems with our paint peeling on our house we're going to redo the outside with proper vinyl siding yet but whoever painted the house last uh painted it with some cheap paint or the wrong kind of paint for the siding and it was peeling off pretty bad i didn't show it in the vlogs because obviously i don't want to show my house with paint peeling all over it looks pretty good but like here's one place here that i painted over now i fixed this the paint had peeled off right out front here was really bad all of this all of this from here all around there was all peeled off you could just see the wood siding underneath it it looks so trashy so obviously i didn't want to show that on my videos but now that i've i got matching paint from the paint store there uh jansen's and uh but you can see that the matching paint that i got was a perfect match they matched the paint perfect but they put too much gloss in it i guess and it's shinier than the old paint or maybe the old paint is faded and the sunlight already you can tell where i where i painted over it right hell over here too and up there and it yeah it looks better than it did right but i'm not finished uh i just patched it up for now and now i'm gonna put a layer of paint over the entire house and hopefully next summer we'll be able to afford replacing all of this siding with vinyl siding well we'll go with the same company that did our roof at our old house watson's roofing and siding we're going to get them to come here and do this as well we really like them you sort of see it on the back as you can see those like how patchy it is there's three there see it was close so close it was just too glossy too shiny anyways the reason i'm showing you this is because jansen's paint is burning right now uh i guess you can't see the small guy standing right over here when chevy photobombed me uh can you still see it oh it's mostly oh you can see a little bit of it right there you see that a little bit of it but it was just black smoke coming up and it's drifting that way but uh the i i don't know if their their part of the strip mall got burned i'm pretty sure the whole thing is gonna be uh i hope they got really good insurance but anyways yeah i guess we may have to go to one of their winnipeg branches or something to get our paint now because i was going to go there next week and get a couple cans of paints so we can do a whole layer on this whole house and now all of that paint is currently on fire won't be much good to me now but yeah it's uh looks like they've pretty much got it extinguished the news is saying that they'll probably be there the firefighters will probably be there all night just keeping an eye on it and tomorrow we'll hear more about what uh what the damage is and what the reason is chevy seems to think it's the cats he wants to blame it on the cats but uh i don't know it's a sunday everything's closed i i really hope it wasn't arson that wouldn't be my first guess i don't think it would be it's not that kind of town but you know things keep changing pretty sure there's probably going to be some kind of electrical or some kind of accident somewhere we'll find out tomorrow anyways chevy everyone love your reporting everyone saw your facebook post very good reporter chevy that's it for today i've got to get ready for bed because tomorrow morning we've got to get that lumber down to fargo i don't want to leave too late i'd like to get down there with enough time to get reloaded if possible i don't know where my reload is yet but thanks for watching hit that thumbs up button if you like to hit the subscribe button to figure out what happens tomorrow see you later [Music] [Applause] you

Peter Roselle: Demolishing Strongholds of Unbelief with Prayer & Fasting (Matthew 17:21)
Mark 9:27: "Jesus took the boy by the hand He lifted him up to his feet, and he stood up. After Jesus had gone indoors, His disciple asked Him privately, why couldn't we drive it out?" The question everybody has, right? Why couldn't we drive it out? What was missing in our formula? You did it Jesus. You have authority. You are giving us authority. How come it didn't work? And in Mark, it says, "This kind can come out can only by prayer." I know I already quoted the other verse where it t says "by prayer and fasting," but we don't really know what he means fully, I think, by just reading it here in Mark. So, I'm going to take you to the Matthew portion. In Matthew 17:19 "Then the disciples came to Jesus..." exact same scene. They came to Jesus "privately and said, 'Why could we not cast it out? So, Jesus said to them, because of your unbelief." That's worth thinking on that one isn't it? It's a different answer. Mark 9:29 said, "This kind can only come out by prayer." But this has another level of qualifier on it that says, "because of your unbelief." So, do you see the power of that man's prayer in Mark 9:24 when he said, "I do believe but lord, help me overcome my unbelief." Where is that stronghold that I set up? Because in 2 Corinthians 10:3 we read, "The weapons of our warfare are not carnal but they are mighty through God to demolish strongholds." Don't comply yourself with this world, don't be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your minds. Because of your unbelief. Matthew 17:20, "For assuredly, I say to you, if you have faith as a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, move from here to there." In Trisha's life, the mountain was a poverty spirit. And there was every reason to understand how that would have gotten there based on her upbringing. To expect somebody to just read the Bible and then it all just leaves = that could happen but it doesn't always happen. Don't beat yourself up. You're in process. Everyone of us is in process. We're a work in progress and a work in process. This is a great prayer. What do I have to do Lord? How can I get more prayers answered? Well, find out the areas in your life where you have strongholds of unbelief and take the weapons from 2 Corinthians 10 and destroy those strongholds. Prayer on a Tuesday night is a good way to start. Come out. We had a good group here this past Tuesday. I hope we get another one, there is power when we pray together. That's right. Matthew 17:20 "Surely, I say to you, if you have faith as a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, move from here to there, and it will move; and nothing will be impossible for you." Then he says, in verse 21, "However, this kind does not go out except by prayer and fasting." So, let's just take a little poll. Is it "This kind of... demon only comes out by prayer and fasting." You guys don't want to vote? What's he talking about? What doesn't come out by professing demon? This kind of demon? We have a different party down here in the front. Most people never even think beyond that. Well, of course, it must be "this kind of demon only comes out by prayer and fasting." But Cheryl gave you a little help. Crib notes, I'm going to say no, how about "What about this kind of unbelief only comes out by prayer and fasting..." We know Jesus had no unbelief. No unbelief. So that is our standard. Faith. He went to the cross in complete faith knowing that he was going to be dead. While he was alive, he trusted his father enough to know that he was going to resurrect him from the dead. But he was really dead. Hope you're not having a bad day Dad... and you forgot." Faith. I don't know anybody who has 100% answered prayer. But I do know do you know some people who carry an amazing anointing and there are signs, wonders, and miracles following. We all want to know why it doesn't work when it doesn't work. Why we don't see the results? But we're in a war. Once sin came into the world, it changed the whole formula. So, don't attribute to God if somebody doesn't get healed. There's a devil that comes to steal, kill, and destroy. If only one person got healed and all the people you ever prayed for, it would still be worth it. Because that one person got healed and there were no other answers. Even what Clarissa said... There was nothing else that worked for me except God - to break off deliver me... the deliverance I needed for the addictions. Nothing else worked. This kind doesn't go out except by prayer and fasting. I'm kind of winding down now. As they were coming down the mountain. I'm just bringing you back to the scene again when they're coming down off the mountain and the Pharisees are arguing with them. It says because of your unbelief. So, I looked it up. I just want to see what the Greek word was for unbelief - which is diminished faith. You can read, "Oh you of little faith," offered in the bible. When they are on the boat and they woke him up and said, "Aren't you worried that we are going to be sinking here? And he said, "Why did you have such little faith?" So, unbelief goes hand in hand with little faith. Jesus has no little faith. So if he's the one that we want to be like... that is our motto. But "the kind..." The word for "kind" really surprised me, "this kind.' is the word genos. Which we would get our genes from. Like your genealogy... What is right inside you... your kind... what breed you are... what people group you are. So, this kind of unbelief comes when you're with a lot of people who have unbelief - because you pick up what is in tribe you're with. So, if you're with a bunch of people who don't think God heals today, it might be a little harder but if you're with a bunch of people who've been healed - I'm curious - has anybody here been miraculously healed? Could you stand? Let's give God the glory. There was nothing else that could have done it. Oh my God - he is no respecter of persons. So, look, the other people don't have to believe - however many dozens of people just stood up. That's fine. That's your right. You could think that God doesn't heal anymore - but we're here to tell you, he did it. It is done. It's already completed. That work is finished. We are going to try to go help other people get .... healed, delivered... whatever. So, look, I've to really watch who I'm hanging around with, because it is contagious - both ways. Unbelief - I'm going to be in this kind... this kind... only comes out by prayer and fasting. This kind of unbelief only comes out by prayer and fasting. This kind of faith gets nurtured and grows and matures when we're together with other believers. I'm almost done. I already told you, the Pharisees produced a kind of zone, a kindred zone of interference. When Jesus walked off that mountain, if you could have seen in the spirit, there would have been all kinds of buzzing around them, a zone that was hard to penetrate with faith, because one person's unbelief was multiplying the other person's unbelief. I think these Pharisees were saying, "We knew you couldn't do it! We knew Jesus is just a magician, and you guys don't know the tricks. As soon as he is gone, you don't have any power." So the disciples said, "How come it didn't work?" He said, "This kind comes out by prayer and fasting." Fast and pray to increase faith. Can we stand I'm going to fast and pray to increase my faith and demolish strongholds of unbelief. You know, fasting is not a popular subject. People think they're going to die if they miss a meal... "What if I'm driving and I get lightheaded and I pass out. God wouldn't want that, would he?" Well, you can pull over. Keep a snack with you if you're about to pass out. So, I just want read you a quote. It really hit me when I first read it many years ago. "To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything and your heart will be wrong and possibly broken." You know what wrung means, right? When you ring out a towel, squeeze it. If you put yourself in a vulnerable position, your heart is going to be squeezed. "If you want to make sure of keeping your heart intact, you must give it to no one. Not even an animal. Wrap it carefully around with hobbies and little luxuries and avoid all the entanglements. Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket, safe and dark and motionless and airless, it will change. It will not be broken. It will become unbreakable, impenetrable, and irredeemable." Now, we don't believe anything is irredeemable but you get the point. You think you're building the wall to protect your heart and you're building a wall that becomes a casket. Safe and dark but now impenetrable. That's a hard heart. We want to change that. Then he says again, it was C.S. Lewis, "To love is to be vulnerable." So, could you just lift your hands for a minute? Say, "Lord, we sang it today. I open up my heart to you. Could you please reveal to me whatever areas I might have where I have stubbornness... where I have a mountain of unbelief in my heart because I've been so disappointed or because people have let me down. I've been betrayed and I'm afraid to trust again." Well, let me just tell you church, everybody is afraid to trust again, but you have an option and if you are going to engage in life and if you want do great exploits for the kingdom - and I know you do! I know you do because you' are here and your passion shows. Then we are going to just have to take risks. We're goint to have to take some risks and get out there and be with people that could be your troop. That can help you see things when you don't fully see them. If you've got a blind spot - that's part of trusting them. To be vulnerable with them and say, "Look, I'm going to be accountable to my friends. And if I'm going through something, I want to have people I can call that I know will pray with me. Let's just say that, "Lord, soften my heart. I don't want to live in stubborn opposition to the faith that you placed inside me." And look, this is a common problem, but we always try to figure everything out. So, just acknowledge that the Bible says, "Your ways are high above my ways." I'm going to stop trying to figure you out, listen to your voice, and be obedient. Give me the courage to be able to step out of the boat, step out of my comfort zone, and do great exploits for the kingdom of God."

The Most Overlooked Aspect of Sales: Process Adherence with Spencer Wixom
[Music] all right hello and welcome to another expert Insight interview my name is John golden from s poop online s magazine and pipeliner CRM joining you as usual from San Diego and today I'm delighted to be joined from across the country on the other coast from Spencer Wixom who is in Greensboro North Carolina via Dallas Texas thank you John it's great to be here with you yeah absolutely and Spencer is the president CEO of the Brooks group he spent the last 16 years of his career as a sales researcher trainer and sales exec executive and has a passion for really understanding what makes sales professionals tick and moreover what makes the best sales professionals tick uh prior to the Brooks group Spencer was a chief customer officer at Challenger working for the corporate executive board and Gardner where you learned the art of sell in with careers in Investment Banking and real estate and recently you've been teaching as an Adjunct professor at the University of Texas in Dallas and today Spencer we want to talk about that Old Chestnut sales process right and I can already see you know there's some sales people go oh no not the sales process thing so why is why let me just ask you kind of fun a foundational question here SP why and because your company does a lot of research why are we still talking about the import not just the importance of having a sales process but the importance of actually using a sales process yeah so there's a there's a very uh simple statistic to to indicate why that is the case um so 95% of organizations that we survey and and look at have a sales process almost everybody indicates yes we've got one um and we can probably articulate what it's basic foundational steps are but when you actually ask them how many of them dilig ently or consistently adhere to that process the number goes way way way way way lower that's somewhere around 20% uh of organizations and so um yes we we have a process but we're not following it and when we don't follow it consistently um and I think this is particularly true right now we tend to get lost we tend to scramble uh we tend to be disorganized in the way we're engaging with customers and handling some of those really critical elements the sales like the sales experience that they're having with us yeah no no I would agree with you and then of course then you get the you get the problem of you could have two sales people two identical opportunities and one is in stage two and the other one's in stage three and it's like okay which is which and it's in it's it's inflating or deflating your pipeline it's in the wrong place they're not qualified properly people are doing things different a lot of this lands at the feet of of leadership though correct oh absolutely absolutely being disciplined enough to um kind of expect that adherence to the process there's three really basic rules for for process adherence I don't think process adherence is as difficult perhaps as people make it out to be um and I want to touch on uh another element of process adherence in just a moment that'll sure um make it clearer but uh you know our founder of the BR group Bill Brooks had three basic rules for process adherence and I think they're they're really good rules to follow which is number one don't skip steps in a process if you have a process that is easy to or make some sense occasionally to skip steps it's probably not a good process to follow right number two is don't move on to your next step until you've completed the previous step uh and I think that's really important too as you had mentioned just a second ago when you're trying to track customer buying Behavior again customers aren't going to adhere to your process right your process should be designed around supporting the customer in uh his or her buying Journey um but you don't want to move forward in those process steps until you've confirmed completion of the previous previous step and number three is make sure you and the customer are in the same Step at the same time and that goes back to what I was saying before right if your customer is on or is reacting to or appearing to be in what would correlate to step two and you're forward in step five you're G to have a problem you're going to be you know forecasting that deal incorrectly you're going to be confusing that customer in your communication there's all kinds of problems there so don't skip steps complete steps be in the same step as the customer at the same time yeah and obviously to do that it means that your sales process has to be defined not just because I think a lot of times you have this kind of horizontal definition you have St stage one two three blah blah but there's not enough definition within those stages what are the things that need to happen and therefore it kind of leaves it a little bit open to interpretation exactly that like there there's a key to um sales process Simplicity that I think we want to think about and simplicity is the key word there and you know there's an interesting principle in design called affordance what affordance basically means the great definition of affordance by Donald Norman is action possibilities readily perceived by the actor a simple example of that is I go to pick up a coffee mug I naturally know to pick up that coffee mug by its handle that handle has been def designed with affordance like it's it's just intuitive it's clear to me how to interact with that mug same thing with the doorknob right I know naturally how to turn a door knob to open a door and I think sometimes we put too much um kind of cute design into our sales process so having it you know use certain terminology or the process we try to put everything into it including the cut kitchen sink right all of these definitions and details things like that and it loses its affordance it loses its kind of the natural inclination that A salesperson has it doesn't connect well with that and so in those instances what happens well you've either got a like Ram people or force people into process adherence which we all know doesn't work um and and so it it breaks down that that the process needs to be intuitive simple clear have some affordance to it and there's and there's another thing I think about sales process that you know I've always uh seen and that is and this goes back to kind of to sales managers and sales leaders a lot of times is uh number one sales people are often very tempted to move things through the early stages quickly because they're excited maybe they got happy ears maybe they're hearing things that aren't there and sales sales leaders and sales managers are more inclined to jump in at the end of the sales process when it gets to the later stages you know the super closed I'll help you get it over the line so they almost ignore that initial qualification and then of course you jump in at the end it all goes wrong and you can track it back to the fact that this this process wasn't followed early on the qualification wasn't done properly and now both the salesperson sales leader are frustrated because they're everything got focused on the end and it all fell apart yeah and it's it's not a really as I've watched sales process adherence or or activity over the years it's not a straight linear yeah um kind of progression it's kind of like what I'm trying to remember who it was that said of societies that they fall slowly and then all at once um and it's a similar thing I think if you look at your process and it's not overweighted to those initial steps to those investigation initial meeting Discovery probing steps if you're not overweighted there um then I think you're you're gonna have real struggles in the back end of your process if you're rushing through to negotiation confirmation close you're going to be very surprised that you don't have customers tracking with you on that process and so you know a balance that we look at is the first couple of steps of that process and your initial investigation your um prospecting and then your Discovery should be about 70% of your time and effort that backend should be 30% of your effort and that backend is the effectiveness of that back end is heavily weighted on the effectiveness of the front end yeah and and like I said I mean that's where a lot of sales leaders or or sales managers they don't spend enough time with their salespeople in the in the early stages uh you know they kind of leave a lot of that up to them and that's really where as you said it needs a lot of the attention needs to be because the other thing you end up with then is this inflated pipeline right because you've got because we have a tendency to load stuff into the beginning um you know back when I was working at huway like our parent company Informer we decided to go through this process of cleaning out our Pipeline and going okay only things that really we have a of a better than average chance of the right fit we cleaned it and the first thing the parent company came back and said is we are pipeline is a quarter of what it was this time last year and I say yeah but our forecast is actually higher yeah you know Anthony anerino talks a lot about that when he says you know he's worked with organizations that demand some insane multiple of the closed pipeline right well we we want four or 8X and he's like well that means you are planning to fail a vast majority of the time like what kind of of process is that and I agree with you I think if if the process is well set up yes you will probably have you know low yield rates in your in your front end but your back end should be highly predictable yeah over time I mean it we're talking 80 plus 90 plus percent predictable on the back end if you and like you said before if you have managers who are pushing for adherence they're they're saying B basically slow down as opposed to speed up in those initial stages of the process yeah it's like you know it's like slow down to hurry up because that's at the end of the day if you if you spend the time and then the other thing I think Spencer is you see a lot of companies they may put a lot of work into their sales process initially and then they think good sales process is sorted that'll do us for the next couple of years and we do and Meanwhile your buyer behavior is changing maybe the market dynamics are changing all of this this so I think sometimes people Overlook that a say process is kind of a living breathing thing that you should be looking at and revisiting and tweaking as you go oh absolutely well think about it like jazz music it seems like in my life I'm I'm I love jazz music and used to play it and I think I use jazz music as an analogy for about everything but I think it works in this instance though here which is um you know Jazz musicians get up on stage and they have a series of chord progressions they don't play those chord progress RS they improvise on top of those chord progressions and so their their performance is different for each and every audience and that allows them that artistic expression in the moment but the one thing that they don't do is break the chord progressions right if the chord progression is a key of C they're not in a key of E that's G to sound bad it's gonna sound wrong and that's I think the same principle applies to a sales process the process is the chord progressions it's the it's the structural ideas or or philosophy I there is a difference too between philosoph or excuse me methodology and process and I think sometimes people confuse that terminology methodology is what we want to accomplish like what is the sort of the spirit or the idea of our commercial activity the process is the how you execute that so you know you have your process set up but that process if it's elegant should allow for improvisation um for like you said innovation what you don't want to be doing is breaking the structure or you know you want to play Within uh the rules so to speak yeah and it's and just to just to follow on what you're saying there like it's interesting you can you can understand the process you can even be good at adhering to the process but that doesn't mean that you also have the the right skills to move a you know move a customer through that process so talk to me a little bit about how this how the skill sets are are really important for a sales process like for your for your pipeline for executing you have to have the skills as well as adhering to the process well you do and the and the skills are what uh deepen each of those steps in the process here's an interesting thing we've been doing for a number of years we do this with a few thousand salespeople every year so we've designed uh call it an assessment a diagnostic a test we call it our selling skills uh in index and what it does is it tests situational Acumen by a salesperson in each of the kind of common stages of a sales process so can I make the right decisions to do the right things in each of those uh situations what that allows us to do is it allows us to evaluate how uh sharp or um kind of how good the intuition is of of salespeople in each of those steps and what's interesting is we aggregate that data is we can see at large where salespeople struggle and and where they don't um one area that we've seen almost universally every kind of group that we look at from military recruiters to technology salespeople to healthcare salespeople to Industrial Machinery salespeople from sales leaders down to individual sellers the thing where they struggle most is in Discovery probing critical questioning that's step that's where the Acumen appears to us to be weakest and isn't it interesting that as I said here we are in 2023 and we're still having problems with people having good questioning skills and listening skills and uh you know processing skills and being able to build on things because you we we and I think part of it is because we're living in this crazy world where number one we think we have we already think we have the answers to everything and we think they're at our fingertips we have bad attention spans we're distracted we're not focused because let's face it a salesperson who is really focused who's really asking good as you said probing questions who's making you as a buyer think a little differently those really stand they stand out way more than they should well yeah and think about think about the different economic environment that we're in now compared to where we were say five years ago five years ago there was Equity money and there was debt money flowing into business right and so what was your decision when you had that money and you said well there's people who have given me this money yeah with the expectation that I grow the business to repay the debt or with the expectation that I grow the business to give them an equity return and so I've got to spend this money to begin proving to them that I'm a good Steward of it and so that creates a ton of business for salespeople to react to which is you've got buyers who are under pressure to spend money what a great environment to be in right and so you don't really need to probe particular deeply as far as their motivations or what they want to accomplish and things they're standing there going you have stuff to sell I have money to buy stuff tell me you know what it is you've got to sell now we've got an an environment in which people are looking at and they say we have we have to be very careful about how we spend our operating cash flow because that's what we've got so we're making very critical concerned decisions will the things we buy support what it is that we want to do that's the kind that's why our questioning needs to be so much deeper and more powerful and more deliberate now is because we've got to uncover that so that we can know how to position our solution to capture those rare dollars yeah and and I think the other part of it is when you get into a a a a situation like this and it happened Al it happened obviously it's happened recently but it happened after the financial crisis as well back in 2008 is that as you said you know people are very careful about their dollars and all of that but your biggest competitor can turn out to be the no decision because that's the easiest one to make that's the one that it's it's it appears safe on the surface and you're you've no risk of somebody coming back and say what happened you that was a waste of money uh and so that becomes that becomes even harder because it's not even that you're trying to compete with other competitors you're trying to compete with the with the you know the inclination to play safe right the certainty that taking an action with you will be a good thing for me right and whereas we we think like you said and that's I think it's a very good point we think we're com they're going to do something because for a number of years they did they took those actions now it's just you know I want to make sure each action independently I have a sufficient degree of certainty that's going to be a good action or I'm not going to do it so we really have to think deeply about uh competing against that like you said yeah and I guess the the other thing that I I think really stands out nowadays is the the best the best salesp people because the best process in the world won't cure this but the best salese are the ones who actually have some real level of of curiosity intellectual curiosity like curiosity about the business of their Prospect curiosity about the the business of business in in general because once upon a time I think you could skatee by a lot of sales people could skatee by without really understanding how business worked I used to have one salesperson in a different company who used to say oh John I sell the sizzle not the steak and I'm just not sure you can sell Sizzle these days to be honest no well you can I mean Sizzle helps to sell St you're selling stake at the end of the day for sure well I and John I think you bring up an interesting point there which is just to kind of put a frame on what we've been talking about yeah process adherence to a process simplification of the process so that it has a forance that people follow it that's important right but then having the the skills beyond the process to be able to innovate on it to improvise around it all of that very important as well the third piece I think which you just touched on is I've got to have a proper mindset I've got to have a proper set of personal skills to guide me and and one of the things we're concerned about is we are seeing an atrophy of a full host of personal skills yeah in the current environment now that could be generational we're getting a lot of new inexperienced sales people in in gen Z and and younger Millennials it could be the pandemic throwing people off their game it could be just the fact that we've never encountered an economic environment many in their sales careers have never encountered an economic environment that's challenging all of those things combined to really chip away at that like you said that confidence that personal skill set I think organizations it's very important for them not only to look at do you have the selling Acumen do you also have that proper set of deeper personal skills curiosity you mentioned being one uh problem solving flexibility Conflict Management resiliency all of those to be able to properly do the job yeah yeah no absolutely and the uh and just and the basic listening skills because that's something that people have lost uh a lot of and you see it and yeah I mean it could be a generational thing but it's Afflicted uh it's across all generations because these stupid things have have become so uh you know they be they control our lives so much I mean how many times have you being in a conversation with somebody and their phone buzzes and they immediately look down to check it and then kind of come back to the conversation and you go well that's a bit rude yeah but but it's almost become acceptable so therefore I if you're having a sales conversation it's very easy to let your mind wander get distracted because you're not because people aren't disciplining themselves to say no no no my focus needs to be 50% needs to be on Spencer right now yeah we're I think we're we're doing a lot more analyzing of the game these days and less playing of the game yeah right and we got we got to get in the game it's really interesting when you look at DIS profiles in the last few years what you see is you see on like if you look at a meta analysis of it you see influence going down and you see compliance going up what does that say right we're analyzing the game we're evaluating we're trying to pull the levers from behind we got to be jumping back into it we've got to be persuading human to human face to face yeah yeah no absolutely I'm sure we're seeing intuition go down as well because that was always good and like you know int if you did not this but what's it Briggs Meyer's intuition is always a that's always if you see that that's always a good thing in a salesperson because they're reading things all the time so you're probably going to see the same on that uh on those profiles too yeah I would agree yeah well listen Spencer this has been great all the Spencer's information will be below this video but before you go please do tell us a little bit more about the Brooks group sure the Brooks group has been around for 40 years we're a boutique sales training transformation coaching and and assessment organization uh we serve organizations across all different kinds of Industries um and uh we really care deeply about understanding as I said before the process that salespeople follow the skills by which they execute that process and the mindset they bring to the job we feel all of those elements combined and strengthening those elements leads to much stronger performance in the organizations we work with absolutely and by the way uh if people always think oh I'm going to I'll invest in my sales team they always think about I'll do that when the times are good and I've got extra money and when times are bad I'll just wing it this is actually when times are tough this is the time you uh the people who actually invest in in skills development during the tough times are the people who always emerge the strongest that's a that's a well-known if you want to look that up that's statistically proven absolutely absolutely all right well listen thanks again Spencer thank you for watching and listening I'll see you all again soon great pleasure John thank [Music] you

to team keep it clean what's going on it's engraving Hill was another video and in this video dion jordan dion jordan the former number three pick in the draft number three overall pick from the miami dolphins korea didn't quite work out so well but then he got another chance with the seattle seahawks so but now he's a free agent but either way dion jordan came out today that he is going to be suspended for the first ten games of the season and this is after the appeal so he appealed but he already lost and he is going to be being suspended for the violating the pd with four because he took adderall it took adderall I know adderall is a drug that's supposed to help make you help you focus I don't know how I feel I've never taken adderall with myself so I'm not sure if it has any crazy side effects anything like that but either way he's being suspended for taking adderall and we're going to get into that but before just had to give a shout out to all the Bills fans out there and um the bill superfan and his family Pancho BIA what is it bill uh I think it's BS since he was finished but um cuz he died today they said he was uh he was fighting cancer and he ended up losing and unfortunately uh for now death is one of the worst things that we have to deal with it affects literally everybody and it's the worst so I feel for his family for anybody that ever knew him Bills fans cuz that when you have a fan of the team like that other fans of the team can sort of embrace him like family too because his fandom and his uh just energy can be super contagious so shout out to them and shout out to be la fere but I remember I think they did it last year too well they let him come on stage for a draft pick but this year when he was in the hospital they they let him uh call in that first round draft pick but when the bill is drafted at álava so that was a pretty um pretty cool moment so shout out to the bills for doing it and that that will be forever in their history and in his family's history too that the bills were able to do something so special form but anyway so team keep it clean back to Dion Jordan so he again he's being suspended for ten games this is somebody that's been banned for a year before but he got reinstated so good for him there's somebody who said he is on he's gonna be cleaning up his life from drugs from substance abuse from alcohol he said he doing under that normal and he said that a while back he said he ain't he ain't with that anymore but this is was the use of adderall I was reading the article and I'm gonna skim through the article through some points in this video too but I was reading the article that talked about and my apologies for doing this video so late normal a little bit late with it but it's all good better late than never but I was reading the article I was talking about how he was dealing with his his sister his younger sister who he feels is like a daughter to him she had some personal issues going on that the article did not stay with those personal issues are and I'm happy for her that the article didn't stay with those personal issues are because they are exactly that personal issues but for him to say that he feels like she's like a daughter to him that shows exactly how much he cares for so that's got to be stressful so that that can that can take your mind off football easily like it's like if you're going to work if you're going to work and you got personal issues going on with your family with a close friend with your husband your wife your boyfriend/girlfriend brother sister mother father whatever you got personal she was going on and you go to work it can easily affect you it can throw you off your game people can usually tell that something is up with you these people that know you and people that care about you people that watch you people know so that's that's tough I know even for me if if I if we had some personal going on here it wouldn't feel right to be making videos I cannot if it's like me and my wife was arguing uh something like that I wouldn't feel right making a video because I would want to take care of that first and be at peace before I came here so then I mean you shouldn't let the Sun set if you mad anyway so that's why I like resolve and stuff like that but anyway he was dealing with that and like I said it could affect any of us if we got something personal going on and not just at work at school just whatever you get in your day to day lives if you got personal stuff going on people around you they can tell people I know you they can tell so there was that and then daughter also talked about how he with his grandmother his grandmother um he said she had only had like a few weeks to live and that was messing with him too so he's got these things going on with some close family members close close close family members and he was still trying to focus on football and it didn't say that she passed a few weeks later and I know that feeling personally to my grandma you know my grandmother died about a year December of the year before last so that then that was rough me that was rough so I completely feel his pain and I know there's other people who have gone through that too unfortunately but he he said that's why he took him because he needed help focusing he needed help focusing it says that he he has then prescribe for adderall for his ADHD and now the interesting part about this is that he had been approved to take adderall he had been approved to take it in the past as treatment for his ADHD so he had got the green-white for adderall it was fine but I saw also red and this is something that cuz I'm not too familiar with the the medical world and the medical terms and all that stuff and as far as the different terms for prescriptions and stuff so somebody in the healthcare field they would know what this is automatically his uh his tue i don't think it's called it - i don't think they actually say - say the pronunciation out like that but his tue and that let me read what that is that is his way to go his therapeutic use exemption so he has a therapeutic use exemption so what I gathered from this article it seems like that that was sort of his pass to be able to use the adderall and not be suspended not be fine not be need not be in violation of any of the UH the substance abuse the PD policy something is passing whatever but it had expired it expired so since his Tue expired and he said he knew - and that's that's the toughest part about this whole thing because sometimes when when you under a lot of pressure when you learned a lot of stress you don't always make the wisest decisions even though you know what the wiser decisions are enough times a lot of us we can take the easier way out we can just try to weather find a loophole or just try to deal with something and just hope that uh we don't reap the consequences for later on but something that he knew he said he knew he said he was aware that his tue expired but he still took it anyway he said he wanted to he just really wanted to try to focus on football man he really wanted to try to focus on football and I'm sure if it adderall has helped him in the past because he was comfortable taking it doing these stressful situations when I suspended ten games and it's NFL man they they can be very backwards on a lot of this stuff when a lot of their rules a lot of their regulations a lot of their stipulations a lot of just all of that stuff because it's like look at the personal conduct policy it's like the guy can get suspended ten games for taking adderall if his um his TV expired but then if somebody else like even the Kareem Hunt situation he got suspended eight games for that but the I'm Jordan 10 games for uh for the adderall and I feel like NFL they I feel like they don't look at the situation's for what they are they just look at their policy and they're like okay this is our policy these are the numbers that we already have in place we're not gonna go case-by-case basis we're just gonna let everything play out based off for the numbers that we already have in place for the amount of time that you're going to serve being suspended they don't they don't look at the cases they don't look at what actually what actually is going on they only look at what is the the broad the the general offense they don't look at the details of it even you go back to um to the Ray Rice thing with that whole thing I think they only suspended him like three games I think since it was his first offense they only suspended him three games and that was a joke they suspended him three games three games and then of course I know people gonna bring up the Josh Gordon thing I meet again that now just to clear it up for anybody that might be new here I'm sure who wouldn't old he already know his team keep it clean I don't condone they need smoke and weed anything like that many drugs like that but it's just it's just so backwards man the whole the whole NFL and they're the ruling on stuff is just so backwards even with the Giants kicker the Giants kicker what the they would this stance on domestic abuse that's part of the the personal conduct policy to I think he got suspended one game I think but let somebody take adderall boom or even any peds like I feel like with NFL they are so much more invested in oh if will to a certain extent but are you trying to be a better player oh well you know what that's worse than trying to that that's what that's worse trying to be a better player individually then trying to hurt somebody else that's worse even though a lot of these guys sometimes it's just a mix-up with a lot of these guys with the whole pd's thing sometimes it's just a mix-up it's a mix-up and just just NFL me that's the business of that is the business of I guarantee it was a more high-profile player they probably might not even know about this might not even know so son this is a very unfortunate situation yeah you got so many different other so many other situations you can compare it to even entirety of thing going on right now who knows what's gonna happen with it but I'm sure it's gonna be a minimal minimal suspension especially versus this versus this uh the I enjoyed against has been to ten games for the adderall so yeah he should have made a better decision he should have got his tea we renewed but yes they I just wish NFL would just do a case by case I wish they would do that and just stop looking at the general the broad offense and actually look dive deep into actually what's what what's really going on is this person really in a abuser of the other PD if so I get it but if you look at this situation and everything all the details of the situation then I think that it could just be a fine and it could be a fine and um and make him get his tea we renew I don't know what the process is for that I don't know what the steps are for that but that's what I think should happen for this one so that's just me though but I do think um based off of his sincerity what seems like if he definitely got some sincerity with it with just being so apologetic I think that he'll still get picked up by somebody I think somebody still give them a shot yes 10 games is a very long time and I feel for the guy if everything in the story is true I feel for the guy cuz that sucks you can't go to work for two and a half months and it's actually more than that because the the season doesn't start in September season starts like now o TAS they starting up manycam gonna be the training camp order then preseason then season so you are missing out on so much but I still think somebody's gonna give him a shot I do think you got like what five and a half sacks last year with Seattle so maybe it was just a system thing why we didn't work out what the Dolphins who knows no dolphins they're on they don't run their organization the best so maybe it was just a just him being in the wrong situation but hopefully everything will get cleared up with them um and they won't be any more hiccups anything like that in the future team keep me clean appreciate y'all I'm out

Dell 1U R210 server Sophos pfsense firewall Atheros Wireless access point small rackmount
[Music] hey guys what's up so so I assure you this little Dell are 210 server bill here with the I'm going to put PF cents or so plus on it and I had pretty good luck in my last video putting that one together right there in wireless access point mode so I decided to put together a server for customer with the same thing same thing same kind of wireless so on the other motherboard I had an onboard wireless card PC a mini PCIe card but this one I'm going to do the external PCI card is this decadent this is actually the thing I have extra ones but this is the actual V then a theros chipset and if you want your server to go into a wireless access point that you'll need a thorough of chipset and that's what this should do about 300 megabits yeahthere of 58d 92 I should do about 300 megabits but let me show you this so real fast yeah these servers are actually really good so you need to achieve now you know they've been superseded by the Dell are 220 but I picked this up over at a recycler for 60 60 bucks let's take a look at this alright so it came at that to keep your memory and came with a core i3 you know a lot because I'm just doing a firewall bill here but so core i3 to gig of memory which I'm gonna upgrade that's why I had a mi server we have stacks of memory up here that I can use so this is actually not a Dell server it looks like it's not Dell Brandon so del actually white labels their server center companies and manufacturers so that's what this looks like right here so I'm also gonna put a I went to my crescendo I got a hundred 20 gig SSD drive I don't need a lot of space it's a firewall so all right so I'm gonna get the first things first I get this a wireless PCI card here because I want this to be to work as an access point now I've actually had these Wireless closed a long time hopefully they work so there is the atheros card and this is kind of Lau Wireless clients to connect to that and dual gig one will be when when we land but if I wanted to have more interfaces I could just take this off and put like a external NIC on there but I gotta take this and I have to pick up the hard drive put that in there so I can OS loaded let me give you a quick update on this Dell are 210 super project here it's better in flavor so but I actually I ordered a bunch of stuff for this thing this is actually a dell idrac hard it's remote access card this is the enterprise version because this is actually an older server I was able to get a new processor ozium so I'm gonna go from a core i3 to the Xeon that was 10 bucks this was like 12 bucks and I also got some more memory so all this stuff you know besides the server was like 30 bucks to upgrade the RAM the processor and the remote access card here this will be nice for remote reboot so sometimes if the OS crashes I don't have to physically go in front of the server and Henry and pull up our I guess log into the Drac remote card and reboot it so this should work with other servers but Kristen he looks like has an SD card too so I do actually have either I mean I del are seven tens we've seen in my colo I have a couple of tower servers are for 10 we're not to be T for 10 the tower version but all right cool let me get this in and just pop right into this spot right there but all right cool all right so the RAM and the processor came in is the Xeon processor this should be eight gigs is actually ECC memory something double check to make sure it's ECC so what an end in our heat again I know it's ECC this is unbuffered non-registered you see do you know one gig so this is for 2gig should be more than enough for the firewall there's no graphical environment in the firewall so you don't need all the extra RAM all right someone change the processor out so I'm going from a core i3 to a phenom I got a paper towel get that stuff off the old thermal paste thermal paste [Music] see this thing fires up and there we are all right so we got the 1 5 for profit for Park Place Beyond they did I ran that's now ready to load the OS so there it sees it as a xenon Xeon 3450 and inking Ram so now we're ready to sell the firewall software actually using stuff Oct M by the way all right unless this is installing if it runs Linux by the way if you didn't know alright alright guys there it is so alright so I decided to keep that for myself there you had to go look so see the antennas on top that's a 2.4 gig and 5 gig and that's a 48 port Cisco POS which I mainly install Cisco stuff for a living phone systems and networking gear but this is a surplus firewalls pretty awesome I'm actually taking out a you guys let's go hey it's a 5505 but below that is a cable modem if it's nicely now iraq and that's the unique thing about this build is the integrated AP such as your standard PF sounds so flows bill but with the external wireless network card so cool got it going pretty good server you know pretty cheap you know so good firewall build like i said it fits into that rack mount right there yeah a little small wall mount rack i did actually put him in a shelf I didn't have actually had the rails but you can actually get in there too thin water to just screw it in there like my rack threading is a little too big so [Applause] [Music]

QUICK + EASY fall hair + makeup | with MUA Allana Davis | VLOGMAS 1
all righty guys what is up and welcome back to my channel today I'm gonna do a little collaboration with Souter so today I'm gonna fill them a little collaboration for you guys for a fall inspired look with hair and makeup featuring a Lana Davis so I'm gonna film a collaboration today with Alana Davis and we're gonna do it in my mouth and we're gonna do a everyday fall makeup look so with a dark lip because I know you guys really want to see that and then a sleek hairstyle that you can wear out and a sleek hair saw that you can do at home for everyday as well I'll bring you from day to night so today I'm doing a collaboration with Alana Davis featuring an everyday fall makeup look with a nice bold dark lip and a hairstyle you can do at home that will bring you from day tonight so let's get started and start off with the makeup look and we have some very cool products so we have Charlotte Tilbury Armani beauty and anything else yeah we have to face okay which is really cool and then before we are even starting this makeup she exfoliated with Alana Davis micro scrub which you love I feel so good and my skin is like so soft and supple and then to add to that that is clinical you complex which is super lightweight and it's a botanical based skincare line and it's just phenomenal and I love using it as a base for makeup so what we're gonna do is we're gonna start with just clearing her complexion like this is like for fall like no one wants cakey makeup I mean even in the summer no one wants cakey makeup so the emphasis of this season right now is healthy skin glowy skin so we're gonna use products that really show that nothing too heavy really soft really beautiful so to achieve that number one I'm going to use Charlotte Tilbury light Wonder Foundation I love this I've never easy I may say it's kind of like a bump off and I use the back of my hand in my mind no no no so I'm just gonna on the back of my hand mix two colors I'm mixing a five and a two beautiful I'm just using a matte one five nine brush I just love this brush because it's just so great for foundation so what I like to do is whenever I apply the charlotte tilbury tinted moisturizer I always like to apply just a little bit just Pat precedent with my finger you know there's nothing better than a little bit of heat when you're doing your complexion because it just helps the product blend it helps everything melt into your skin and all that good stuff so it's really really great so just a nice even coverage so other great thing is that she just got like all of her Botox and all of her fillers in her face so everything's still really fresh no you're like no [ __ ] my face moves okay so she just did both sides so you can see my skin is super even and this is with the Charlotte Tilbury I feel like I have like flawless skin right now I just need some concealer because you guys know my under eye bags are like not the greatest so next we're gonna conceal and we're gonna use NARS I'm creamy radiant concealer I love this concealer it's so good it's like the only one that has full coverage yeah and I remember I heard you mentioning that you're gonna we're gonna use honey which is a good color because you have a tan but yes we're gonna do this last oh okay well what I'm doing more natural looks I like to do complexion first just to like even everything out I mean she has flawless skin but you know there is still like a little bit of redness just and all that good stuff so our money is like the bomb calm so what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna do this ice to kill and this color is stellar it's like a bronzy Sparkle how many of you go does it take to focus a freaking from there we go look at the shine so beautiful that shine okay so I'm gonna take this color and I'm gonna go all over her lid with it but I'm gonna add a little bit of dimension with their highlighting bronzer all right so this is like literally my favorite product right now it looks so natural on my skin and it's just like it's really happy J I know I love the shape so anyway so what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna go and I'm going to take my match you do for brush I mean this is a classic brush and I'm just gonna apply a little bit of this and I'm gonna go all over the reason why I'm doing it with the brush first is because I want it to be very very soft how many times have I said very very soft in this video okay guys so we just had to continue the video we're gonna start with the eyes but we continue it on an iPhone excess so maybe you guys and tell us if you like the quality versus my camera quality and maybe I should just get a new phone instead of investing in a $2,000 camera I don't know let me know in the comments below yeah let's continue so next so I'm going to take our money highlighter and I'm just going to take the tip of the two two four brush and we're gonna just add a little bit to the inner corner I love it to her brow bone I still haven't filled in her brows I'm gonna do that last I'm just gonna go back into the pot and I'm just gonna use my finger is I'm going to take this Mac 2-1 to brush this is like a flat angled brush which I love and I'm just gonna really load this up and I'm just gonna line look up for me right close to her lash line I'm just gonna really smoke that out so what I'm gonna do now is I'm just going to continue on with the other side but what I really want to explain to you guys is um the reason why I'm using a fluffy brush and my finger is because my finger what I'm applying at the pressure is much more dense one you're doing a look that you want to be super airy then you're gonna use this really fluffy brush and you're just gonna like dust it on basically so now what I'm going to do is I'm gonna go in with a brow pencil and I'm just gonna start at the bottom of her brow and then just brush it in because I don't want too much and Myra's are tinted so it's a little bit easier to throw them I think to know yeah for sure okay perfect yeah well when you do my brows last time like so I love literally the way she is yeah next we're gonna go in with this concealer by NARS and what I like about the doe foot is that you can really shape where you want it I never put this much on and excited yeah so you do this well the thing is I'm going if we're gonna blend this all the way out [Music] look at that see how flawless yes covering the bag look at the difference it's such a beautiful and that's the thing that's white like that's why it looked like we were playing love when we really weren't we're playing such thin layers we're just applying like two more areas and you're probably used to so now what we're gonna do is we're gonna add okay Armani full-color okay so this one here is a nice read they're all mad so this is from the matte Rouge collection and this color is 400 okay this one I like for everyday and this is like a really soft pink number 500 and then this one here is a number of 200 which is a coppery sort of brown so so beautiful spray this one let's do it so we tried nervous well you know what I like about these lipsticks is that the way that they're angled is it I don't even need like a lip liner brush so we're gonna apply it straight from the tube [Music] so [ __ ] it looks [ __ ] good on you really good mom oh it's good yeah feels like oh yeah but I could leave it up hol up see look at my eyes they just like yeah let me see angel there's you the devolution okay so we just finished the lid oh and I think yeah I totally add to the look like it's amazing look yeah look at this contour look at this contour look hmm yeah love this guys get this color get this color it looks good on all skin tones I mean Indian - white good I'm actually half Spanish guys so I'm like half not latina but like I'm a Mediterranean Mediterranean mix yeah really really no my mom actually has to see micros as me well I got that from her but yeah yeah anyway so sorry that's not for me okay so here here let's do this okay I'm going to take Justin elastic and I'm gonna bring her hair together and I'm gonna put it pretty low you can make it this as high as you want I just want it really low but feel like this these frizzies like I don't mind that this adds to that messy effortless look and we're gonna get a nice ponytail boom easy we're gonna tie a knot so you're gonna take the hair you're gonna go through and you're gonna pull the end out when you pull the end out you're gonna really hold onto it and push it back towards her head now I'm going to start to pin while I'm holding this little piece of hair what's your biggest type you my big is on someone else actually oh my god do you know what I hate like two things I hate when someone's telling a story they're like oh my god I have to tell you something I'll tell you later oh my god like don't do that number one number two I hate when you're talking to someone and they're like they're there to be condescending

Oklahoma Ag in the Classroom: Red Dirt Veggie Tie Dye
they did tie dyed bandanas with natural food coloring natural food dyes made from vegetables this is spinach juice vegetables have been a long history as far as getting color and things water colors come from a lot of different places and then they did red dirt shirts using oklahoma red soil clay bring it part way out we had to purchase muslim and wash it had to wash it in vinegar because it had to be an acidic base and then i bought spinach leaf and cabbage red cabbage and cooked those down so we got condensed color then we had them take rubber bands and tie dye them so that when we would dip them into the juice they will have a tie-dye when it comes out and we're going to let that sit overnight and look at it in the morning the younger children are transitional first grade children so when you partner them up with an older student they're able to help one another it helps the older student learn to work with someone and use the vocabulary to explain something that looks so simple to them but try to explain it to someone else we've done a lot of that together throughout the years with slasher and i and i think it's good because it gets the fifth grade a chance to be a teacher and realize how hard sometimes it is to explain things to them to help them understand plus it's also a good you know little kids look up to the big kids and it's a time for them to show responsibility and do their thing for the red dirt shirts it was an ending activity for their oklahoma unit of study where they had studied about the land run and also studied about the dust bowl and just reminding them of the dirt being oxidized and having a lot of the minerals in there that consider it to be red and why it's red here but you go other places it might be more of a black color and just different things and it kind of gets into thinking that even though there's dirt everywhere there's a lot of differences in it

can use a pencil or pan cap to gently roll and bend the corner back in place again work slowly and be very careful not to put too much pressure on the card for more severe cases of soft Corners where the damage is more significant you may need to use some simple tools and archival supplies to properly reshape and reinforce the corners you will need small binder clips or Corner rounders a bone folder stiff paper or archival folder stock and acid-free glue like PVA or read starch paste start by carefully clipping rounding off any folded over sections of the corner so it lays flat again then use the bone folder or pencil to gently shape the corner until it is straight and forming a 90° angle cut small triangular pieces of stiff paper to match the corner size apply a thin layer of archival glue to the back of the triangle and place it neatly over the reformed corner Corner use the bone folder to burnish and smooth out any air bubbles add extra layers of triangular patches if needed for Corners that were severely damaged let the glue fully dry completely before flapping the card over or removing the binder clips when dry the patch will provide rigid reinforcement to the corner and prevent future folding or bending in that spot for collectors who want to go the extra mile Corners can also be repaired using other methods like Corner tabs made of leftover card stock clear tape reinforcement or specialized Corner repair tape products dropper storage is key after repairing soft Corners to prevent future damage from accumulating store repaired cards and acidfree plastic

delicate Collectibles that can easily become damaged over time so it's important to properly store and care for CS to maintain their condition one common issue is soft Corners where the corners of the card become bent or curved instead of having sharp right angles soft Corners greatly reduce the visual appeal and value of the card however with some simple materials and techniques soft Corners can usually be straightened and repaired the first step is to gather the proper supplies you will need the baseball card with soft Corners a hard flat surface like a table or desk Corner rounders or Corner couplers and dry silicone lubricant Corner rounders and couplers are small plastic tools designed specifically for fixing soft corners on cards they have sharp 90° edges that can be pressed against the corner of the card to push it back into shape dry silicone lubricant adds just the right amount of slippery moisture to ease the reshaping process without oversaturating the card stock once prepared start by placing the card face down on the flat surface locate one of the soft corners and place the corner rounder or cuper firmly against the band with gentle but firm pressure slowly push and roll the plastic tool into the curve of the corner working it back into a right angle applying steady even force is key you don't want to push too hard and risk creasing or tearing the card take your time and be patient as reshaping an old soft Corner can take several seconds of repetitive pressing if the corner is severely bent use a tiny amount of dry silicone luant applied sparingly to the corner with a cotton swab or fingertip the luant will add just enough slipperiness Under Pressure to help the corner reline without becoming saturated be very careful not to over apply silicone as excess moisture could damage the card wipe away any excess once straightening is complete for stubborn Corners that won't budge try applying heat from a warm hair dryer briefly before reshaping with the corner tool the heat will soften the paper fibers for easier manipulation once the curve is flattened against the hard surface using slow steady pressure check the card from multiple angles under a light to confirm the corner is as close to 90° as as possible without additional Force repeat the reshaping process on any remaining soft Corners until the card looks crisp again allow it to air dry completely before storing as residual moisture could cause Corners to recurve properly reshaped corners should stay straight when properly stored in rigid top loaders binders or boxes with some careful elbow grease and patience soft baseball card Corners can usually be restored

From Protestant To Catholic | Joshua Charles #shorts
the intellect played a huge role in my conversion but at the end of the day and I think this is a very important point to make it's ultimately love Jesus said if you love me you'll obey my Commandments well as a Protestant that was what I was having great angst about is I couldn't know a certainty what those Commandments were because people I knew who were as far as I could tell good well-intended educated people were all disagreeing about it divorce contraception can you lose your salvation I mean so many issues if you want to love Christ you need to know what he commands with certainty Protestants many of them are genuinely I think trying to love Christ as best they can with what they know I I will give them the benefit of the doubt on that but if they're all disagreeing that's a huge source of that's an apologetic opening for us

203. WALK THRU THURS - Ecclesiastes 10:10 (AXE about it)
oh my god disney fans are going to rip this apart they're going to kill they're cancelled you just got to cut this out no no let's just take our canceling and shame [Music] hello and welcome back to the croak and crow podcast i am spencer cartier little magician move there nothing off the sleeves guys i am an honest man i am harriet olsen harriet olson the olsen twin that nobody cares about no i'm from walnut grove why not be wherever you're be from wherever you want to be from and this here is frank um he's also from walnut grove today he's looking like he's a little peep today his little house on the prairie a little house on the prairie whatever it is today's a green day we're wearing our green croak and crows shirts will we sell merch one day no we'll give it away for free we'll give it away for free okay first one's free first one's free then you'll get hooked um hey guys how are you it's thursday thursday thank you you're welcome oh happy birthday it's green day what we said it's green day oh yeah we're both wearing green it's not green day like uh the band no but it's um it is apple day and you like green apples i do i do like green apples against red i don't even i wouldn't even say i like red apples i'll eat a red apple if it's like sliced up into wedges there's many many types of apples that's why we have apple day is it apple day yes and not to be confused with the company the software company no no the original the original what the software company was named after which was a type of apple actually the macintosh apple see there's the types that's an apple right yes so what i'm going to do is i'm going to get a very tart um juicy dense red apple okay and i'm going to get a granny smith and you're going to do a blind taste test and i bet you can't tell some would say a mukbang shout out the yesterday's podcast on mukbangs i have been racking my brain on what type of mukbang i can do and i have some ideas i'm going to do one a mukbang would have to be that you were if we did a mukbang of apples we would have to have the i'm not used to having the crow to do a mukbang of apples we would have to have a whole smorgasbord of apples and we have we would have to stuff our faces with the apples you just like taste test you like comparisons you like um reviews but that taste test doesn't have the same ring to it as mukbang does yeah i'll eat all i'll eat a ton of apples yeah i don't care i think you're going crazy on this thursday i think you would get sick do you think you'll you could do that you think you could still pick out the granny smith 100 really okay 100 i think you're just basing it on the red apples you've had so far no um i would pick it out easily i would say and if i did a blind taste test would it be my favorite there's a lot of apples i haven't had and you are correct i do not like a simple boring red delicious apple and there might be a fuji apple that i haven't tried and i'm like oh my god this is delicious yeah with my eyes closed that being said i think it would come down to okay this is my favorite but number three is a granny smith i think that's how i would um i would end we'll find out i wish i thought of it already yeah we'll do it as part of our mukbang day um your your sister's name avalon is actually a a variant of the word apple oh is it and we have a dog named apple and we have a dog named apple now your sister was named after the dog no the dog was named after the computer the dog named after the computer computer was named after the fruit my sister was also named after the fruit it's a nap it's a uh the family tree the family apple tree she was actually named after um king arthur the island of avalon is in king arthur everyone's going to know that but the island of avalon you say everyone's going to know that king arthur i would almost guarantee nobody would know that the island king arthur went to was named avalon you know it was surprising not everybody knew what mukbang was yeah hey well guess what that's what we're doing on this podcast we're letting people know things yeah um so apple's spiritual apple the apple halloween the um the uh the forbidden fruit which wasn't actually an apple but we also also don't know what it was we also don't even know if it really happened but well no no like you know yeah i know symbolic like all of course jesus parables obviously you spend your life trying to find noah's ark you're you're missing the point spend your life the apple core the hardcore fact enthusiast bible fact enthusiasts will say there would have been no apples in the area in which we've come to think creation was started adam and eve it would have been a pomegranate by the translations and all that yeah but we use apple probably good it makes it a little more understandable because once again i don't when i say if it was even real that's not a knockout bible stories are fake it is a omwage is that a word make sure yeah an homage homage yes mean uh you're like giving it a tip of the hat to credit yeah it's an homage to the bible for it not having to be so literal and so you can't because we don't treat it as stone cold concrete fact that's what makes it so fluid and that you can adapt it to your life yeah and a simple thing like not being like well actually it was a pomegranate right everyone knows an apple a juicy good fruit i've never had a pomegranate never have i might be in the minority but i'm saying i've had an apple i can see the apple tree you can see it being picked oh i see so it's so relatable that's relatable and exactly like the apple tree so i will just to cover my faces of saying why i said that um you can who cares what the fruit was it doesn't matter what the fruit was all you got to know is it was forbidden right don't sit under the apple tree with anyone else but me anyone else but me do you think that snow white was biblical because the wicked witch had the evil apple that if she chose it she chose wrong hmm okay let's keep going with that so the wicked witch would have been the snake yeah why did she why does she want snow white dead she was the fairest of them all or is that sleeping beauty oh no um oh my god why did we start this snow white lives in the woods yeah and she's waiting for the prince to kiss her no the witch wants her to never wake up again yeah because she's about what is going on why'd she why'd she even go to live with the dwarfs the dwarves she went to live with them yeah and then right or they found her asleep she went to no she went she went to live with them because she was running they came home they were so sad they put her in the glass yes yeah but she was living with them but why yeah why did the witch go and find her yeah that had to be why are we mixing up sleeping beauty in snow white sleeping beauty was always a captor cat well sleeping beauty is was the finger on the no that's rapunzel rapunzel oh my god disney fans are going to rip us apart they're going to kill they're canceled you just got to cut this out no no let's just take our cancelling and shame all right let's let's just let's just let's just assume it would make sense if she was the fairest of them she was quite literally the fairest with with skin like ice or snow that's why she calls no white right and hair like a raven yes and and eyes like blue like a bird she sang she sang a lot so i think she i think i think that this woman did say who's the fairest of them all is that from snow white and then she said he he said she lives in the woods and then she she pretended to turn into an old beggar lady you'd like to buy my apple but why does she go to the woods and why were they why was she mad at her because she wanted to be with the king because they went in the woods with the breadcrumbs and she was married to her dad she was married to her dad and they tried to lose the kids in the um no that's that's you're thinking of hansel and gretel i don't know all right tomorrow guys tomorrow we're going to tell you disney friday tomorrow we're going to tell you at least for the opening we'll tell you the exact story of snow white i'm going to go i'm going to watch it tonight i have disney plus and when you watch it think is this a biblical yeah tomorrow will let you know if snow white can be seen as a biblical story okay moving on moving on of things we know about because we know that a lot uh there we go got nothing to say you have nothing else i only had apple day really and i really think i think it's a uk holiday as a matter of fact well how about this uh last night was a full moon how about that it really was it was a full moon and they say that um emergency rooms are much more packed and unusual in a full moon so you know what i had to do i had to go to emergency room i don't want to hear about that i wanted to go check it out i love emerging why don't you become a nurse never i almost did i went to nursing school frankfurt hospital school of nursing congratulations um you love hospitals didn't get very far but yeah something about him this was an extra spooky full moon right because this is a spooky season full moon the sky was was so bright if even if you didn't see the moon yeah you could see the clouds you could see everything perfectly crazy i still want to figure out how the moon affects the waves i haven't figured that one out yet if we can't figure out the plot to snow white you want to now the gravitational pull yeah magnets and stuff i want to figure out how all this stuff works ah this is we don't really know about it thursday isn't it this is walk through thursday oh it is you can't just whisper well through thursday because we always like it's part of my editing is i like have it pull onto the screen we'll cut this whole front no no we have to watch this back in shame and learn you know what it is because you have your crop microwave it's opposite day so we don't know what we're doing he's wearing a bonnet the animals are wrong um it is walk through thursday guys yes let's roll the intro and try to get back on track welcome back hope you're having fun cuz walk through wednesday just begun i'm coming back in what's going on guys it is walk through thursday on a thursday last week it was on a friday because we were goofing that was opposite day this week it's on a thursday um what do we do what do what are we doing why don't you tell them you do it so much you see we do it so much on thursdays we open the bible bible bible that that everyone's familiar with and we see all the stories that a lot of people are familiar with and we could just read it regular but instead we choose a small little portion of it and we slowly walk through the portion word by no sentence by sentence word by word nope sentence by sentence line by line word by word consonant letter by letter vowel letter by letter vocal chord vibration by vocal chord vibration we slow it down guys we're trying to find the deeper meaning this whole pot it should be called the deeper media podcast wednesdays is about one word deeper meaning thursdays one verse deeper meaning friday how deep is your love how deep is your love so yeah so without further ado we're going to get on and do it frank is tired of waiting on this thursday well you told me not to waste paper so i sent you a text oh i also said no phones i do ask for a lot i know i know just pull out my port of my cellular phone so just to let the people know if they want to follow along go to instagram instagram ben crow you'll see me and it's the most recent post it's the most recent post it's me chopping wood baby um all right this is from ecclesiastes try to spell that one without trying to say it that's the most uh yeah how many syllables is that e clea z c's too many if the axe is dull and it's edge unsharpened more strength is needed but skill will bring success ecclesiastes 10 10. now this gets me thinking to what i always bring up so i'm glad we can finally talk about it long form is sharpening the ax bay be sharpening the axe i always use that metaphor for working on yourself so that you're strong enough to help others to not neglect your own self in pursuit to help others because then you're doing less than you can if you could help yourself first so you the analogy is you think of it like sharpening an x the axe is your power tool it's what you're using to chop down all the trees if you're just worried about chopping trees down that's a good and that's noble but it's going to take a lot more strength it's going to be a lot harder then at first you take a look at yourself you sharpen that blade and then you're cutting through trees like butter right it'll last longer yes um you you can just do more so taking the time so i guess you would cut cut sharpen because if you don't you're then well you're just might as well you always want a sharp axe and and you can see it in many different aspects of life um first of all first first of all spiritually you know like working on yourself spiritually is very important to then help other people in their spiritual journey it's like anything you know like if you're you want to teach someone how to cook first you know learn how to cook like right and then on top of that um there's this big thing that we always talk about in christianity about jesus said give away all your possessions and we agree obviously we agree with everything in the bible that you should not have um too much of an emphasis on material wealth and all that with that being said i think as people who live in a earthly world we should not push away all possessions full stop you should not be focusing your life on those possessions but the more the better you can do in life that's great it means the better you can help someone like if if you have enough money to buy 10 dinners you can give nine of them away if you give all if you give all your money away you're just another person who's looking for a dinner right you have all the dinners away even yeah so um there should be no shame the only people that should feel shame is the jeffrey bezoses of the world seen my phone lit up that's probably jeffrey probably he's talking about me is what he's saying you know making all this money and donating a sliver of it right that's i think like when we see jesus talk not calling out i don't really i don't know jeffrey bezos maybe he like secretly is like a batman and his vigilante tonight so i'm not gonna talk ill on him but um there there's a difference i think between like having wealth is like holding wealth and being like this this i'm so powerful because of it or sharpening the axe now you have the sharpest nicest it's an expensive axe you might be you might make money cutting down trees ten dollars a tray and you bought a 200 axe it's like what are you doing well that axe isn't for my wall it's not to look at and show everybody how nice my ax is it's to go out there and cut trees down three times as fast right right i would even think when you say that jesus said to give all your possessions away we we've we've thought about this before and there's lots to think about when you hear it because it's a bit confusing or uh concerning but i would i would i'm gonna think of some i was thinking of something when you were talking um which was when jesus said give all your possessions away i'm wondering if it also could mean not to physically give it away but to give away the attachment to it because you hear people who their car is totaled and they're they're like devastated or a fire hits their house and these things are devastating but you know what i'm saying like if you didn't if you didn't form an attachment to it if you weren't defined by it yeah then you even though it was still in your possession you did give it away like you have it but you don't need it yeah well yeah and i guess that like i think i guess it does go hand in hand because the idea of charity is saying i'm not attached to this money right i i don't mind seeing this money help someone else it's that attachment of the right i i need this this is my it's like it's like a baby or something right and once you start saying things like that that's when it turns right into something something something something let's walk through it line by line shall we sure if the axe is i think salt is one sentence i know if the axe is dull so just do that just stop there if the x is dull yeah okay well we already talked about it no well we have to talk about it longer um if the ax is dull so did you say the ax is us yeah yeah the actu x is awesome all right so it says you know to sneak forward it's you know it does say if the axe is dull and unsharpened yeah but we can what we stopped there because that's where that that's where the columns what i'm saying is i find that the word dull and the and the word unsharpened are the same word so i want to treat them differently because why else are they both there yeah so don't i feel dull means something different than unsharpened in this aspect you're really asking me to think okay if the axe is heard by word yeah all right well if the axe is dull right that you're i i can't do this you're making it too nitpicky i don't know try help me help me here i'm drowning i'm dull you're not um right maybe dull isn't is is without any creativity without any um innovation without any you know dull beyond so there's dull as a person we can't we got to move on we're going to be hovering over this forever there's only two more that's fine we're going to talk about the whole thing after if your axe is dull and edge unsharpened let's just talk about edge and sharpened the edge is what you're cutting down trees with so that's the outward give like the outwardness of you that's the full potential of the actual yes so the so the axe is you but the edge is what you have to get way and then that's unsharp and it's you're not being you're not using it to its full potential more strength is needed and so this i think it goes back to what i was saying about this is that a lot of people you see with mental health too let's just not make this all spiritually right um well everything comes back spiritually but you see it with mental health and then you see uh people who are hurt and struggling helping other people yeah and because they don't want to see those people go through that they recognize and i think that's where it's the more strength it's not impossible to cut down a tree with an unsharpened axe it's not impossible to to be not all not healthy mentally and help someone else mentally but it's taken a lot more of your strength you have to like and so right a lot of times working harder yeah and it could come to a disastrous end because you're more worried about them and then that's when boom you get a chip in your axe it's because like you're just whacking whacking the headphones off right goodbye you so it really is harder not smarter yeah but skill will bring success but skill will bring success i have no idea what that means stop it okay so if the axe is dull and its edge unsharpened more strength is needed but skill will bring um is it saying that don't worry even if you have a dull axe being skillful will still let you get the job done or is it saying get skillful and sharpening your axe then you'll be successful and you won't be wasting your energy if the axe is dull and its edge unsharpened more strength is needed but skill will bring success it's saying that anything's possible anything's possible it is possible to live live life with the dull axe it and it's possible to live life with a sharp axe yeah but obviously maybe it's saying like for the times that you can't sharpen the axe is all is all hope lost no you'll have but you'll have to pull from the strength i think the main point of ecclesiastes 10 10 is skill you know a skilled laborer yeah a skill i learned a skill or i perfected a skill yeah it's creating a skill of what you're doing what your your output your what you're offering to the world and do it any way you can even without a sharp axe you're saying optimally you should have you should sharpen your axe and that's true but well then i mean i guess what you're saying is this is going against my analogy it's not you were saying it's more about you than it is about the axe no i said skill of keeping your ax sharpened the skill of keeping your act sharpened will bring you success because you can do it with a dull acts but you're going to become um drained you're going to yeah you're going to become over time yes so everything is possible in life everything is possible everything is possible in life with god yes this is saying ecclesiastes 10 10 skill will bring success what skill the skill of keep of keeping your axe sharpening yes yeah that is what will bring success is right yeah is the skill of keeping your act sharpened and um couldn't there be various times of your life where you know is life just a still photo or is it is it you know an ongoing video of there's times when you're hitting harder yeah and times when things are just you have a very sharpest axe and your things are going good for you yeah yeah definitely and uh i think a lot of people i don't know a lot of people but i think also yeah going through this idea of the consistency of sharpening the axe right and that's when it now be skilled yeah yeah and that's when it comes into this this daily reminder of you can start feeling burnout and stuff from something and it's so like if you just go through your life just trying to help other people and you'll you'll always have someone else help and it's just it's great it's noble it's good but there is time there needs to be time to take for yourself yeah otherwise like it's always easy this constant this uh regeneration this restoring of your acts right but yeah um so spiritually and to be spiritually skilled when i hear that i kind of feel like someone will be snobby you know like you know like because skill comes from i don't have a definition but it still comes from doing it all the time right so a talent a talent so so if we were both fixing the shingles on the roof if you if you were very familiar with fixing shingles and roof and i wasn't i would i would admire your skill i might even be a little jealous of your skill and you weren't born a roofer but you became skilled by doing it all the time so spiritually um skill spiritual skill will bring spiritual success yeah but when i think of it i think oh like you have to be a pastor you have to be able to memorize the bible or so is that true no can you be spiritually skilled without being a religious person you know yeah and and i think that goes back to sharpening of the axe right um i think more important why i always say more important is yourself is always is always making yourself the best to be able to spread all the spiritual goodness is because you might have a preacher dare i say i mean not to call anybody specific out but who using your skill analogy they were a quarterback in high school you know like they put in their work at the ministry and now they're going out and teaching football for the rest of their life i think so you're like oh can only a a coach be good with these skills but this person who's outside with their kid every single day working on on their and never had the accolades that you're saying but right what's what's more important playing every day what's more more uh let's see do a different uh thing that you would do every day because what person what grown man is practicing football every day um every day no painting okay okay painting sure so oh do i need to be a uh art teacher to or an artist who sold art to be a good artist the person who is drawing every look at george bush when he started drawing every day you know that's the one and that's the the more important thing you don't need to have these titles to be spiritual it's about like the person who draws every single day is going to be a great artist uh and the person who works on their own spirituality every day is going to be spiritually skilled you don't need to be right in a gallery to draw a picture that will impress everybody right um what would be the benefit of being spiritually skilled if you didn't want to become a pastor you didn't want to um well i think just for um value in your own life right so being spiritually skilled you you brings you a lot of value in your day to day and um i also see so sharpening the axe i say you sure you're you work on yourself first and you can chop down trees because that's spiritual good or whatever who fill in the blank what these trees are there's another analogy that i use of and when you fully work on yourself spiritually and you're spiritually skilled i also think so we say god is love so in a way being fully spiritually uh skilled would be you have filled yourself up with love you are a loving person fully loving and i've heard this analogy before where love is like a um is like pouring water into a cup you're the cup in this analogy you're just a lot of inanimate i feel like we're in harry potter yeah you're the cop and you're being filled filled filled once you're overflowing you you then have the resources to be pouring into other people's cups gotcha so two different things obviously you being a full cup is amazing and then if you are keep working on that you're like i have water to go around yeah and you once again if you don't look at yourself first it seems counterintuitive when it's like isn't that selfish but what the the alternative is you have half of a cup of water right and you pour in someone else's cup and you're empty again right so you want to work on yourself and become a tap almost for that and that would really take confidence which was one of those walkthrough thursdays words confidence in god that you know sometimes we're afraid to share because well that's all i have yeah and if i share with you then i'm not going to have it anymore but to have the confidence to know that it's always going to be refilled yeah what what podcast was that this is about water um we're just using that water analogy of the i think it was actually last week's walk through thursday okay or walk through friday where it was about a tree all right there where you know we are a tree oh my gosh last week was the tree and this week we cut it down now we're cutting down the tree weird tree planted by water and so no matter what drought or heat we're always getting water right and same thing once you have that confidence that you have tapped into your spiritual skill and you have just a that cup of love is just being filled up here here's some i know i'm going to keep getting filled up here so i'm here some instead of not working on yourself first not making sure your cup's always filled to fill others yeah it's true i this now that i'm looking at it it does seem a lot to have to do with confidence because do you ever in a stressful situation and you're worried and you know you're going to make it but you're nervous and um whatever whatever the situation is but there is a time where if you really truly believe that god will make everything okay you do feel really peace yeah and so if if the edge is unsharpened you need more strength yeah but if but if you know you have you can split a hair with that ax you might breathe a little easier and and not be going so ham on the yeah no definitely and yeah i think that pretty much sums it up yeah ecclesiastes 10 10 it's hard to spell it's hard to say and i thought ax was spelled with the knee but it's not it is axc but our word just says ax i don't know let us know down in the comments we didn't really know anything today we didn't know about cinderella didn't know about how he dispelled an axe it was snow white but what we do know is that it's the end of the show and we will be back tomorrow for a fun friday get ready for that disney friday go sharpen your axe sharpen it real good peace [Music]

in 2015 601 billion u.s. dollars in remittances were sent worldwide of which 441 billion were sent to developing countries Global remittances to developing nations amount to three times the amount of international aid the cost of remittances is highest however in sub-saharan africa in pacific island countries for example for every hundred dollars sent to africa 12 will be deducted in fees in some countries fees can even increase to as much as ninety dollars with only ten dollars received by the intended recipient at the International Organization for Migration we advocate for reducing remittance costs and improving access to remittance services we must focus our attention on the receiving end of family remittances to further help meet the economic social and environmental challenges confronting developing countries we must encourage the private sector to facilitate financial services for migrants and their families
