a4f46Vih5zA | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a4f46Vih5zA | Drawing the line on shoreline cleanup | Nothing in nature is more dangerous to nature itself than some of the things that we capture. Tonight we were down at the at the Delaware bridge in the river and we got all kinds of stuff that gets in the way of wild animals. Plastic. We don't have to go to the ocean to find plastic and styrofoam. We got it all right here and just more and more. We released a baby turtle down there tonight and we got all this stuff that was just laying around down there that people had left around. One of the more dangerous things that we capture here at Salthaven is things like this fishing line. It gets wrapped around shore birds' feet and legs and it creates a terrible mess for them. We've had gulls and ducks that have come in with their legs almost severed completely because of the fishing line wrapped around it so tightly. So, next time you're out there fishing and you think that this is no more use to you, pick it up, take it home with you, throw it in the trash. You'll probably be saving a life.

FtTf9xjJr54 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FtTf9xjJr54 | How to get a Mortgage with Mobile Phone Missed Payments and Defaults | hi it's brian here from nisha advice hope you're well please smash the like button if you do like these videos it really does help us get to uh the top of the table when it comes to youtube algorithms um right i thought i talked about mobile phones and missed and late payments on mobile phones how do they affect getting a mortgage um obviously that's one of the most common type of late or missed payments or defaults we get uh for applicants looking to get a mortgage um and it can you know it can be quite damaging so um let's go through some of the bits and pieces now so um you know you can have lots of different types of missed payments there you know when somebody says to me i've got bad credit or can you get me a mortgage with bad credit and i go well what's a bad credit because there are different things on the lighter end of things it could be a utility bill late payment or a mobile phone late payment so i will class that as the lighter stuff right the way through to missed mortgage payments and county court judgments and defaults and ivas and debt management so there's a big spectrum when you're dealing with mortgages with bad credit specifically when you're dealing with mobile phone day payments um there are two schools of thoughts really there's the high street vendors and there's the non-high street lenders so let's talk about the high street guys first essentially they will view it as late payments of an unsecured debt so um they'll pretty much see it as a you know late payment on the credit card maybe or late payment on a unsecured loan or late payment on maybe overdraft or something so um general rule is look you know if it's just late payment maybe one month late on a mobile phone as long as it's not in the last three to six months three months you should be all right okay and i think you would get through that um if it's you know a default maybe then it's just going to be classed as a default they don't really care right they don't have a criteria where it says we'll ignore it because it was mobile phone okay a lot of the lenders um so really it comes down to when was it how many months late was it did it go all the way through to default or not so um we've just got to uh you know we're going to have a look at the credit report on that the next uh type is type of lenders is the specialist lenders so that's if you've had other things as well because unfortunately there's a trend okay if you've had a mobile phone default it's a higher chance that you've got other things that you've missed missed on so that could be you know normally what you get is mobile mobile phone defaults maybe utility bills maybe overdrafts maybe payday loans right the way through to car finance that's been missed you know all sorts of things happen so um if that is the case then it's classified and we've probably got to go we probably can't get away with going down the high street and we have to go to a non-high street lender what i mean by that a specialist lender is you know they will accept um and they will deal with people that have had blips on their credit profile and they've had issues with their credit profile so generally when it comes to them the good news is a lot of them and in fact i was just checking on one of the criteria systems that i used there was up to 12 lenders that will ignore mobile phone late payments and that's fantastic now um you know they're they're specialist lenders so what that means is let's say if the high streets uh got a rate of i don't know two percent um these guys would probably be sitting at three and a half percent okay four percent maybe so you are looking to pay almost double the rate so you just gotta be mindful that uh you know that but the thing is these are not for people that have had just one mobile phone late payments or two mobile phone late payments these are people that have had other things accompanying a mobile phone so you could have two cc js from three years ago you could have missed mortgage payments from two years ago you could have loan payments that have been missed in the last three months you could have had a mobile phone late payment well they'll ignore the mobile phone late payment some of them will actually ignore mobile phone defaults which means it's been six months late okay but they'll still ignore it so um so there's good points and bad bonds some of the good points is they're great on credit profile and some of the bad points are the specialist lenders they're generally on income multiple side of things they normally cap out cap out around four and a half times income so they're not as generous when it comes to income multiples they will take things like pension contributions into account where if you had to go to the high street a lot of the lenders will leave no pension contribution so again it affects affordability so a lot more tighter on affordability also the rates higher but more importantly um the deposit requirements are greater so before the pandemic you could get a 90 loan to value mortgage for a non-standard specialist lender on a residential basis um at the moment i know of one that does 15 deposit the rest of them are all sitting at 20 deposit so you've just got to be mindful there's probably there's probably one or two more at 15 percent but generally you need to have 20 if you've had other issues okay um so especially slenders that's where they're sitting right now obviously if you had the odd one or two mobile phone payments we've got to look at it and say right let's find the high street lender let's try to go down the issue lender because they've got a better rate because they're better on income multiples and let's see if we can find a tolerance i should end up the more deposit you have the greater the chance that we've got so i've actually also just written an article on it with a lot more information around missed mobile phone payments some of the other criterias around it so i'll put the link in my video in the description below and go and check it out at nisha advice dot co dot uk as always guys thank you so much for watching these videos i know mortgages are not the most sexiest topic in the world however it's something most people are considering most people are involved in whether you've got one whether you're thinking of getting one and i really do appreciate the support that you we receive and the comments that i've had through the channel please do like and subscribe and share if you can and yeah i'll catch you on the next one thank you so much take care the content of this video does not

rendered into English blank first by Edward Earl of Derby this LibriVox recording is in the public domain your reader Michael Armenta meanwhile the Chieftains seated in the ring looked for the cars that scoured the dusty plain the first to see them was I Dominus the Cretan king for he without the ring was posted high aloft and from afar he heard and knew the foremost Horseman's voice well - he knew the gallant horse that led all paying the rest but on his front alone a star of white fool ordered as the moon then up he rose and thus the Greeks addressed Oh friends the chiefs and councilors of Greece can he to see or I alone the cars a different chariot seems to me in front a different charioteer and today who first were leading must have met with some mischance I saw them late air around the gold they turned but see them now no more though all around my eyes explore the widespread plain of Troy perhaps the charioteer has dropped to the reins or round the goal he could not hold the mares her chance has missed the turn and on the plane is lying now beside his broken car while from the course his metaled steeds have flown stand up and look yourselves I cannot well distinguish but to me it seems a chief who reigns over the Greeks though of Italian race the son of Tydeus valiant diomede sharply a wheel uses active Sun replied by Dominus why thus before the time so rashly speak while the high-stepping steves are speeding yet across the distant plane mine eyes are not the youngest in the camp nor look they out the sharpest from thy head but thou art ever hasty in my speech and ill becomes the this precipitance since others are there here by better safar the same are leading now that led at first you mean Lass's manners tis he that holds the reins to whom in anger thus the chief Ajax that wrangling good in judgment not and for our tells among the Chiefs of Greece of small account so stubborn is thy soul whilst thou a tripod or a cauldron stake and Agamemnon Atreus son appoint the umpire to decide whose Steve's are first so shalt thou gain my knowledge at my cost he said up sprang a wheel uses active Sun in anger to reply and farther yet had gone a quarrel but Achilles itself stood up and thus arrival Chiefs addressed before bear both Ajax and idomeneus this bitter interchange of wordy war it is not seemly and yourselves I know another what to condemn who so should speak but stay here and seated in the ring they're coming wait then hurrying to the goal will soon be here and then shall each man know whose horses are the second who's the first thus said but tied uses son drew near his lash still laid upon his horses shoulder points as lightly they I steppin scoured the planed still on the charioteer the dust was flung as close upon the flying footage steeds followed the car with gold and tin inlaid and lightly as they flew along were left impressed the wheel tracks on the sandy plain there in the midst he stood the sweat profuse down pouring from his horses heads and chests down from the glittering car he leaped to earth and leaned his whip against the chariot yoke nor long delayed to the valiant stennis but eagerly sprang forth to claim the prize then to his brave companions gave in charge to lead away the woman and to bare the tripod while himself unyoked the steeds next gained the horses of intellicus who had by stratagem and not by speed or Menelaus triumphed yet he him so a try teases flying coursers pressed him heart for but so far as from the chariot wheel a horse when harnessed to a royal car whose tail back streaming with the utmost hairs brushes the fellows close before the wheel small space between he scours the widespread plane so far was Menelaus in the rear of nests doors son at first a discus is cast between them lay but rapidly his ground gained so well the speed and courage served of ether Agamemnon's beauteous mere and but a little farther were the course had passed him by nor left the race in doubt behind the noble son of Atreus came a javelins flight apart Maroni's the faithful follower of I Dominus his were the slowest horses and himself the least experienced in the rapid race dragging his broken car came last of all his horses driven in front Admetus his son achilles swift of foot with pity saw and to the greeks his winget words addressed see we're the best of all the last appears but let him take as meet the second prize the first belongs of right to tight uses son thus he they all assented to his words and by the general voice of Greece the mayor had now been his but noble Nestor's son and Tillis stood up his right to claim and to Achilles peel uses a son replied Achilles wilt do me grievous wrong if thou thy words accomplish for my price thou text away because mishap befell his car and horses by no fault of his yet that he to the Immortals made his prayer he surely had not thus been last of all but pitying him if so thy mind incline thy tents contain good store of gold and brass and sheep and female slaves and noble steeds for him of these hereafter mayst thou take a prize of higher value orion now and with the applause of all but for the mayor I will not give her up and let who will stand forth my own right hand shall guard my prize he said and smiled Achilles Swift of foot delighted for he loved the noble youth to whom his wing and words ethos addressed intellicus if such be thy request but for you Miele sigh should add a prize and to him I give my breastplate from Asturias one of brass around whose edge is rolled a stream of shining tint a gift of goodly price he said and bade otamatone his friend and comrade bring the breastplate from his tent he went and brought it in new Melissa's hand he placed it he with joy the gift received then Menelaus sad at heart arose burning with wrath against intellicus and while the herald in the Monarchs hand his royal scepter placed and page of the Greeks keeps silence thus the godlike hero spoke and to Lucas till now reputed wise what has Davout done thou hast impugned my skill and shamed my horses who has to brought thine own inferior far before them to the goal but come ye chiefs and councilors of Greece judge ye between us favouring neither side that none of all the brass clad Greeks may say that Menelaus hath by false reports or born and Tillich as' and holds his prize his horses fairly worsted and himself triumphant only by superior power Thor come now I myself will judgement give nor T my any Greek will find to blame in my decision for tis fair and just and Tillich asst come forward noble chief and standing asked his meat before the car and horses in my hand the slender whip wherewith thou dost upon the horses lay thy hand and by earth-shaking Neptune swear but not of malice and by set design thou didst by fraud impede my chariots course to whom intellicus with fruit and speech have patience with me yet for i po king o Menelaus and by jr. far my elder and superior thee I own thou knowest the are eager fie immense of youth how quick in temper and in judgment weak sets then by heart at ease the mayor I won I freely give and he fought else of mine thou should desire would sooner give it all than all my life be lowered illustrious King in vine esteem and sin against the gods thus saying noble Nestor's son led forth and placed in analysis hand a mare a monarchs soul was melted like the do which glitters on the years of growing corn not bristle or the plane e'en so thy soul o Menelaus melted out his speech to whom were thus addressed by winget words intellicus at once I lay aside my anger thou art prudent and not apt to be thus led astray but now by youth my judgment hath or powered seek not henceforth by trickery or thine elders to prevail to any other man of all the Greeks I scarce so much had yielded but for that thyself hast laboured much and much in George thou thy good sire and brother in my cause I yield me to thy prayers and give to boot the mayor though mine of right I am NOT of a harsh unyielding rude he said and to know Eamonn gave in charge the faithful comrade of intellicus the mayor himself the glittering cauldron took

thus replied all thou hast said my son this simple truth no firmness now my limbs and feet retain nor can my arms with freedom as of old straight from the shoulder right and left strike out o that such youth and figure yet were mine as when the appeals in view presume held o royal Ameren sis's funeral games and when the monarchs sons his prizes gave then could not one of all the appeal race or

remained this contest to reward the richest prize they were twin brothers one who held the reins still drove and drove the other plied the whip such was I once but now must younger men engage in deeds like these and I the chief of heroes once must bow to weary but honor thou with fitting funeral games thy comrade I accept well pleased by gift by heart rejoicing that thou still retains of me a kindly memory nor o'er look'st the place of honour which among the Greeks belongs to me of right for this the gods reward thee with the worthy recompense he said Achilles listened to the praise of Neil uses son then joined the general thrall next he sets forth the prices to reward the labors of the sturdy pugilists a hearty mule he tethered in the ring unbroken six years old most hard to tame and for the vanquished man a double cut then rose and two of the greeks proclaimed aloud thou son of atreus and a ye well-greaved Greeks for these we bid to champions brave stand forth and in the boxers manly toil contend and he who cistern endurance Phoebus crowns with victory recognized by all the Greeks he to his tent shall need the hardy mule the loser shall the double receive he said up a

Thais Tulane's son stood forth opposing he had once in Phoebe's joined in the funeral games of Oedipus and there had vanquished all of CAD me and race on him attended valiant diomede with cheering words and wishes of success around his waist he fastened first the belt then gave the well-cut gauntlets for his hands of wild balls hide when both were thus equipped into the center of the ring they stepped there face to face with sinewy arms upraised they stood awhile then closed strong hand with hand mingling in rapid interchange of blows Dyer was the clatter of their jaws the sweat poured forth profuse from every limb then rushed a pious on and full upon the cheek half turned aside let fall a staggering blow nor stood hew rymus but legs and feet knocked from beneath him prone to earth he fell and as a fish that flounders on the sand thrown by rude Boreas on the weedy beach till covered or by the returning wave so floundered he beneath that stunning blow but brave a pious took him by the hand and raised him up his comrades crowded round and bore him from the field dragging steps spitting forth clotted gore his heavy head rolling from side to side within his tent they laid him down unconscious to the ring then back returning lure away the cup Achilles next before the Greeks displayed at the prices of the hardy wrestlers skill the victors prize a tripod vast fireproof and at

nor could Ulysses Ajax overthrow nor Ajax bring Ulysses to the ground so stubbornly he stood but when the Greeks we're weary of the long protracted strife thus to Ulysses mighty Ajax spoke Ulysses

the funeral the time of 12 days is employed in this book while the body of Hector lies in the tent of Achilles and as many more are spent in the truce allowed for his internment the scene is partially in Achilles his camp and partially in Troy the games were ended and the multitude amid the ships their several ways dispersed some to their suffer some to gentle sleep yielding delighted but Achilles still mourned over his loved companion not on him lighted all conquering sleep but to and fro restless he tossed and on Patroclus that his vigor and his courage all the deeds they to together had achieved the toils the perils they had undergone amid the strife of warriors and the angry waves stirred by such memories bitter tears he shed now turning on his side and now again upon his back then prone upon his face then starting to his feet along the shore all object --less despairing what he Rome nor did the morn above the sea appearing unmarked of him arise his flying steeds he then would

defiled but from unseemly marks the valiant dead apollo guarded who with pity viewed the hero though in death and round him through his golden aegis nor though dragged along allowed his body to receive a word thus Fowley did Achilles in his rage misuse the mighty dead the Blessed gods with pitying grief beheld the sight and urged that Hermes should by stealth the corpse remove the counsel pleased the rest but Juno still and Neptune and the blue-eyed made retained the hatred unappeased with which of old Troy and her King and people they pursued since Paris to the rival goddesses who to

Hecuba his wife and said good wife a messenger from Jove hath come who bids me seek the Grecian ships and there obtain my son's release and with me take such presence as may melt achilles his heart say then what think'st thou for my mind inclines to seek the ships within the Grecian camp so he but Hecuba lamenting cried alas alas where are thy senses gone and where the wisdom once of high repute

perfidious man if thou within the sight and reached shalt come no pity will he feel Oh reverence show rather remain we here apart and mourn for him when at his birth his thread of life was spun by

what era thy wish to reach the Grecian ships to whom in answer godlike Priam thus woman I refuse not to obey thy counsel good it is to raise the hands in prayer to heaven and Jove's protection seek the old man said and paid the attendance for pure water on his hands with you were she and basin stood beside him from his wife the do illusions maid he took the cup then in the centre of the court he stood and as he poured the wine looked up to heaven and thus with the voice up lifted praise aloud Oh father Jove who rules don Ida's height most great most glorious grant that I may find some pity then Achilles is heart and send on my right hand a we need messenger the bird thou loves to the best the strongest flight but I myself may see and know the sign and firm in faith approached the ships

some wealthy monarchs lofty Hall on either side his ample pinions spread on the right hand appeared he far above the city soaring they the favouring sign with joy beheld and every heart was cheered mounting his car in haste the aged King drove through the court and through the echoing porch the mules in front by sage ideas-driven not true the four-wheel Duane behind them came the horses down the city's a steep descent urged by the old man to speed the crowd of friends that followed mourned for him as doomed to death descended from the city to the plain his sons and sons-in-law to ilium took their homeward way advancing or the plane they too escaped not Jove's all-seeing eye pitying he saw the aged sire and thus at once to her knees spoke as much mama to son hermès for thou in social converse loves to mix with men and here sthoo ere thou wilt hast thee and Priam to the Grecian ships so lead that none of all the Greeks may see wrought Achilles his presence he attained he said nor disobeyed the heavenly guide his golden sandals on his feet he bound ambrosial work which bore him or the waves Swift as the wind and or the widespread earth then took his rod wherewith he seals that will the eyes of men and wakes again from sleep this in his hand he bore and sprang for flight soon the widespread Hellespont he reached and Troy and passed in likeness of a princely youth in opening manhood fairest term of life between net passed by Alissa's lofty tomb and halted there the horses and the mules beside the margin of the stream to drink for darkness now was creeping or the earth when through the gloom the herald Hermes saw approaching near to Prime thus he cried Oh son of Dardanos be think ye well of prudent counsel greatest now our need a man I see and fear he means us ill say with the horses shall we fly at once or clasp his knees and for his mercy sue the old man heard his mind confused with dread so grievously he feared that every hair upon his bended limbs did stand on end he stood astounded but the guardian God approached and took him by the hand and said where father goest thou thus with horse and mule in the still night when men are sunk in sleep and fearest thou knots the slaughter breathing Greeks nine unrelenting foes and they so near if any one of them should see thee now so richly laden in the gloom of night how wouldst thou feel that thou art young thyself and this old man by comrade would avail but little to protect thee from assault I will not harm thee nay will shield from harm for like my father's ears methinks thy face to whom in answer priam godlike sire tis as thou sayst fair son yet hath some God extended or me his protecting hand who sends me such a guide so opportune blessed art thy parents in a sun-soaked graced in face and presence and of a mind so wise to whom in answer thus the guardian God Oh father well and wisely dost thou speak let's tell me this and truly dost Val bear these wealthy treasures to some foreign land that they for thee in safety may be stored or have ye all resolved to fly from Troy in fear your bravest slain by gallant son who never from the Greeks encounter flinched to whom in answer priam godlike sire who art thou noble sir and what's my race that speaks to us fairly of my hapless son to whom in answer thus The Guardian God try me bald man of God like Hector asked for often in the glory giving fight these eyes have seen him chief went to the ships the Greeks he drove and with the sword destroyed we gazed in wonder from the fight restrained by peal uses son with Agamemnon wroth his follower I one ship conveyed us both one of the murmured ends I am my sire a licked are rich but aged e'en as thou six sons he have besides myself a seventh and I by lot was drafted for the war i from the ships and to the plane come forth for with the dawn of day the keen-eyed greeks will round the city marshal their array they chafe in idleness the Chiefs in vain strive to restrain their ardor for the fight to whom in answer priam godlike sire if from Achilles Pierce's son thou art indeed a follower tell me all the truth lies yet my son besides the Grecian ships or half Achilles torn him limb from limb and to his dogs the mangled carcass given to whom in answer thus the guardian God on him old man nor dogs nor birds have fed but by the ship of P loses a son he lies within the tent twelve days he there hath lain no her hath corruption touched his flesh nor worms that want to prey on men in battle slain the corpse indeed with each returning morn around his comrades tomb Achilles drags that leaves it still uninjured thou thyself mites to see how fresh as you be sprint he lies from blood stains cleansed and closed his many wounds for many a Lance was buried in his corpse so in in death the Blessed gods above who loved him well protect thy noble son he said the old man rejoicing heard his words and answered see my son how good it is to give the immortal gods their tribute do for never did my son well yet he lived neglect the gods who are no limbus dwell and thence have they remembered him in death except I pray this goblet rich embossed be thou my guard and under heaven my guide until I reached the tent of he uses son to whom in answer thus the guardian God old father me my younger wouldst thou tempt in vain who pitched me at my hands accept thy proffered presents to Achilles is wrong I dread his anger and hold its shame to plunder him though through fear of future ill but as thy guide I could conduct these safe as far as archives journeying by thy side on shipboard or on foot nor by the fault of my conductor should bow meet with harm thus Spoke the Guardian god and on the car mounting in haste he took the whip and reigns and with fresh vigor mules and horses filled when to the ship towers and the trench they came the guard had late been busied with their meal and with deep asleep the heavenly guide or spread the eyes of all then opened wide the gates and pushed aside the bolts and led within both Priam and the treasure-laden Wayne but when they reached Achilles is lofty tent rich for their King the Myrmidon sat built of fir trees felled and overlaid the roof with Russia's moan from off the neighboring need and all around a spacious Court enclosed with grass set Palisades a single bar of fir the Gateway guarded which to shut three men of all the others scarce sufficed and three to open but Achilles his hand on a did shut with ease the massive bar then for the old man Hermes oped the gate and brought him within the court the gifts designed for Pele uses godlike son then from the car sprang to the ground and thus to pry of smoke old man a god hath hither been by guide Hermes I am and sent to thee from Jove father of all to bring thee safely here I now return nor to Achilles his eyes will I appear he seems it not a God to greet a mortal in the sight of all go thou in and clasp Achilles his knees and supplicate him for his father's sake his fair-haired mother's and his child's that so my words may stir an answer in his heart thus saying Hermes to Olympus's sites returned and ryeom from his chariot sprang and left ideas there in charge to keep the horses and the mules while he himself entered the dwelling straight where want to sit achilles loved of heaven the chief he found within his followers seated all apart - only in his presence ministered the brave otamatone and Alcinous a warrior bold scarce ended the repast of food and wine the table still was a set great Priam entered unperceived of all and standing by Achilles with his arms embraced his knees and kissed those fearful hands blood-stained which many of his sons had slain as when a man by cruel fate pursued in his own land hath shed another's blood and flying seeks beneath some wealthy house a foreign refuge wandering all be hold on godlike Priam so with wander gazed Achilles Wonder seized the attendants all and one to other look then Brian thus to peel uses son his suppliant speech addressed think great Achilles rival of the gods upon thy father he and as I myself upon a threshold of on joyous age and haply he from them that dwell around may suffer wrong with no protector near to give him aid that he'd rejoicing knows that thou still lives that day by came a hope to see his son returning safe from Troy's while I all hapless that have many sons the best and bravest through the breath of Troy begotten team that none bar left me now fifty there were when came the sons of Greece nineteen the offspring of a single womb the rest the women of my household four of these have many by relentless Mars been laid in the dust but he my only one the cities and his Brethren's sought offense he bravely fighting in his country's cause Hector but

thy father's sake look pity eating down on me more needing pity since I bear such as never man on earth hath born who stooped to kiss the hand that slew my son thus as he spoke within Achilles his breasts fond memory of his father rose he touched the old man's hand and gently put him by then wept they though by various memories stirred one prostrate at Achilles his feet he wailed his warrior

well some of that is true but that doesn't make it a prison tonight the story the church doesn't want you to hear I raised him and to come to this what the hell is this this is nuts a father story good evening I'm Elizabeth Vargas lab David Muir right here tonight the ABC News exclusive as a father now faces off against his very own son and not just any son but the powerful leader of the Church of Scientology David Miscavige revered by some reviled by others and now the subject of a blockbuster new book titled ruthless which comes out next Tuesday the publishers tell us that lawyers from the church asked them not to release it so what's in it that has the church on high alert Dan Harris finds out you have written a whole book about your son and you've called the book ruthless yeah it's a pretty damning charge to level against your own child he wasn't always that way when he was a kid I am Telling You he was a lovable kid Ron Miscavige says long before his son became the almighty leader of one of the most controversial new religions on the planet how much must one do to call themselves a Scientologist before all those speeches - cheering crowds of believers wore all that elbow rubbing with celebrity Scientologists such as Tom John Travolta and Kirstie Alley David was just a regular kid growing up in this middle-class neighborhood in Willingboro New Jersey they had four kids over there Phyllis and Gil had two girls aluminum siding public swimming pools children bicycling in the street Ron a Salesman and aspiring musician is raising four kids with his wife Loretta the oldest Ronnie David and his twin sister Denise and their younger sister Laurie so you spent 12 years right here on this street 12 years right here yeah Ron says young David was a strong student with an even stronger will dave is not a big kid not at all and yet he was getting into fights he was a tough kid I mean for his size he's like a stick of dynamite you know in your book you describe him having a habit of saying not so kind things about other people even as a boy yeah it seems to me from reading your book to you in hindsight that's a bit of a red flag it was a bit of a red flag in hindsight but at home it's not as if Ron himself is receiving World's Greatest Dad coffee mugs on Father's Day marriage wise we didn't have a great marriage at all we had strife and there was some domestic abuse which I don't ever feel good about and I don't think you can make excuses for that no matter what how much time goes by when you when you say domestic abuse I used to strike her I'd hit her in the arm or similar that in front of the kids and in front of the kids yeah Ron's maiya culpas notwithstanding the church says his acts of domestic violence are much more serious and more frequent than he admits in fact the church says the book co-written by another former church member who's now a fierce critic of church management is filled with half drew and outright lies it's been in my view a literary forgery the church rarely grants on-camera interviews but it's taking Ron's book so seriously that it dispatched attorney mony Yingling to discredit the author what has David Miscavige's response been to this book well I think he's on a personal level I think he's he's probably very very sad that his father would do this there seems to be no explanation except that his father is trying to make a buck off of his name this unusual family history and subsequent family feud was set in motion in 1968 when Ron first hears the word Scientology at a business meeting what was it about the word Scientology that got you so interested I don't know but it did all I heard was Scientology and at that what is that Ron soon learns that Scientology is a new religion founded by the science fiction writer l ron Hubbard there are certain evils in society which definitely should cease and we are taking some responsibility for them so I went to a place where there was a guy who was dgb Scientology he would do drills to teach you better communication so it was useful for you I would imagine as a salesman and also as a guy who was in a marriage that had a lot of arguments oh yeah involved yeah and he says Scientology works wonders for him soon he starts paying for one of the central practices of the faith a sort of counseling called auditing that uses a Scientology device called an e meter look I didn't know what I was looking for uh I knew I was looking for something and when I got in Scientology I felt that I found that I was looking for which did have a lot of answers to life on a basic level so many answers so many life-changing benefits Ron feels a duty as a parent to introduce his son David to Scientology as well he hopes that somehow the auditing can help with his son's biggest problem a nasty and recurring case of asthma he would get severe attacks these must have been terrifying episodes for you as a dad that's putting it mildly and so it comes to pass that in 1969 the tender age of nine david miscavige has his first auditing session about 45 minutes later David walks out smiling bright and in that moment the future is born a future of Fame and power as David Miscavige rises to the highest levels of Scientology and a future of turmoil and pain as his family life erupts into a civil war do you think that was the key turning point in his whole life I know it miracles as commonly understood in the judeo-christian tradition are not a big part of Scientology theology a modern doctrine which draws naught from ancient scripture but instead from the mind of its founder the science fiction writer l ron Hubbard this is the critically panned movie version of Hubbard's novel Battlefield Earth it starred noted Scientologist John Travolta but back in New Jersey Ron Miscavige says something close to what Christians might call faith healing occurs in 1969 that's when he takes his under sized asthmatic nine-year-old son David for his first session of auditing a kind of Scientology counseling about 45 minutes later David walks out smiling bright it's what happened he's his dad it's handled so your view at the time was that his asthma was cured by by Scientology let's put it this way it mitigated it considerably I think it was at that moment that he decided he's gonna do something with this so you think that was the key turning point in his whole life I know it I know it according to Ron this moment is a sort of conversion experience for the entire family now everybody starts studying Scientology with David setting himself apart as something of a prodigy what do you think it was getting out of it satisfaction that he was helping somebody by the year 1975 Ron's music career hits a high note he even puts out this rather groovy album while David's Scientology career is really taking off he's now a young auditor and he decides to join the church's priestly order the C organization or C or the group's distinctive look metals gold ribbons and dressed White's were modeled in part on Hubbard's own time in the US Navy he's I want to go and help l ron Hubbard and I thought to myself hey I'd be pretty proud of him so I said okay I'll help you whatever I can David heads to Scientology's spiritual headquarters in Clearwater Florida which involves signing a billion-year contract meaning you agree to work for the Sea Org in your future lives while in Clearwater he meets Lois restore who says she recruits David to join the Commodores messenger organization l ron Hubbard's personal elite unit within the Sea Org he was very if I could say gung-ho had a lot of spark when he was 16 he was a climber he wanted to be at the top and he gained a reputation of being really tough like you didn't mess with him pretty soon David finds himself in the orbit of the founder l ron Hubbard who has gone from writing science fiction to writing volumes of sacred Scientology texts teenage David moves west without his family where Hubbard sometimes known by his initials LRH is building secret new bases and shooting Scientology training films Dave ended up being a cameraman but in the beginning we used to call him the kid and LRH would call him the kid well Ron Miscavige is back east selling cookware and cutlery what his son is doing during this period of time is a matter of intense dispute the church is adamant that Hubbard decided early that David Miscavige would eventually succeed him there never ever was any doubt whatsoever that mr. Hubbard intended mr. David Miscavige to be the leader of the religion after he departed his life that's not how Louis Restore remembers it she says Hubbard wanted the church to be run by a committee after he died not one person but raised Dorf says after Hubbard goes into seclusion in 1980 Miscavige's influence and power grow unchecked as he evolved from the Commodores messenger into a gatekeeper he started to get power and started to pull in people onto his side and it ended up being like a coup where you had half of the management took over and kicked out the other half Rees Dorf says she is part of that other half and that she's relieved of her executive duties it was a betrayal in the book you say that your son really developed a taste for power in the Sea Org there were no checks and balances on him at a certain point where he could just go ahead he just assumed that power the church says neither louis raised Dorf who they say was expelled in 1982 by hubbard personally nor Ron have first-hand knowledge of these events instead they point out that during this time period Ron is dealing with his own serious issues in 1985 Ron is arrested in Pennsylvania and charged with attempted rape which Ron says is a case of mistaken identity David arranges for his father's defense he said listen you're not on your own they're gonna take on the whole Church of Scientology the charges are dropped after a pre-trial hearing and after it's all over Ron says he owes it to the church to join the Sea Org himself I could have possibly been convicted of something that I didn't do and end up going to jail I feel after help me David told him that his father needed to turn his life around despite the fact that in a 2012 article in the Philadelphia Enquirer the church called Ron the victim in this case Scientology officials are now playing a different tune accusing Ron of deliberately playing down the seriousness of the charges the church has gone from calling Ron Miscavige a victim in the words of the church to now raising questions about whether he's whitewashing the whole thing so the only thing that's changed between now and then that I'm aware of is that Ron decided to write a book well it's not just that he decided to write a book he decided to tell a false story what is not in dispute is that in 1985 Ron moves to California divorces his wife and Don's the uniform of the Sea Org and Ron says shortly after coming aboard he sees that his son has changed and I saw him at his hey Dave and he turned to me and he looked at me like who are you talking to no words were said but that glance told me those days were over I would never I could never do that as a father to a son in 1986 David Miscavige announces a seismic event for the l ron Hubbard has died too being we knew his l ron Hubbard still exists however the body he had could no longer serve his purposes the next year David officially becomes the head of the church taking the title chairman of the board he is now alone at the top from now on he will be the star of the church's olympic-sized celebration he will leave the church through some of its greatest triumphs like winning its tax-exempt status the IRS issued letters recognized in Scientology and every one of its organizations has fully and he will spearhead the charge to bring celebrities into the fold were you around when tom was joining the church and was it a high priority for your son it was top priority who plays the horn for a living super dark secret world is you interested I have never met a more competent a more intelligent a more

zfMFhYI43nc | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zfMFhYI43nc | i18n work session 1/8. Launch session | but I propose this first a very quick round table so that everybody everybody if you can please introduce yourself and just say a few words what's your involvement in Italian Oh first stop with Eddie my name is Eddie petition for three years which shows all of them have been involved in the physicians minion and recently I've started working on things like I just face it some firsts in personal skills which face some companions for the translations for all languages [Music] okay the website was mainly neglected or translated by the love stop and this lots of stuff in that case worse cotton both the fits into upstream translation of stomach package we have brother has the team in the German translation thoughts which Rex but we're so more or less a step back and doesn't mean that I'm not interested in translation anymore I'm just wanting to find the new spot for me in that area who it so rather like him to welcome [Music] I remember the divine Hebrew team and we were mainly on packaging people related stuff and not on translation about a year ago also started Debian Arabic group to fix also their problems especially packages like phones and a spell for distance stuff which they didn't have and there are few other languages which asked to be on that book like Farsi from Iran and Kurdish and leverage which are similar and I hope and straightway that is why I was created the first ones because I sometimes a part on my academic work I collect news from Sheila's been trained obviously I ATM and various different anticipations an immense oryzae experimental so I come here to do some network images you have any job and you had to have some complicity in the world and my deputy named Felix my dreams and secondly it's about my own interest because I was approached by one and the beauties Italian and Naruto and the poems and different translation for the sum expression of denotes is very automatic it caused our and sometimes he is the very committed well it's not just technical things and so I'm here to hear about how these books and standards are made and how can we improve that Emilia report to the entire who unfortunately can't be here because of their ages and various reasons and and the series and music I do wear it for to look at it development process and practically use their issues and requirement analysis and so I thought come here to some field work and just to to understand how people these past things and how they how actually practice patriot design and user oriented design as an ex-offender and I'm here because of not only his former wife I'm very interested in seeing how phones can distract and serve the needs of internationalization and localization in the dependent and with the team in edit and the launch is for international rating systems library that don't be your talk later on open phones and what's happening there and where we can go and where things to get also we we're really hoping we could correct collaboration with other teams so that mobile cats can be activated as an installer that more sensations can I could show that library both graphite for displaying the scripts of minority languages yeah and I both also get general undressed somebody now I'm Philip II I received early fall I've been over the indictments since 2002 especially this translation 2004 coordinator of the Brazilian northeast of the 13 and I've being the part of the IET name admin team for the server deaths extremely late for us I'm also working on a little trying to merge the EDP inside Google and other stuff inside pool and that's that's mainly with translations [Laughter] [Music] we talkin about problematic concession only the rebels who images and the unified or standard way to get translations in the windows world where games are for the idea and looking for solution for a usable standard for Windows user maybe something different that get text or to some City to go to Steve Ballmer Shack I'm the guys you can't file a translation on his packages practically my involvement with internationalisation has been somewhat limited but I have some specific pet peeves that I want to try to take care of this week translation might make in addition for their names the beach right sector actually and more coordinated okay so I'm Nicola Francoise or necron IOC I'm maintaining some internationalization we teach the packages like put it on for pure fry on pootle and I'm also translating and reviewing translations for the French team and you currently dominating the world okay thanks how to pronounce in English by the way just like some samosa or so many so I'm not met I'm not meant to be where my main interest in debian is obviously internationalization mechanisation because this is the only thing I can do so this is why I am in this stuff because someone said a few few hours ago I have no programming skills I suck at administration my chains so the only thing I can do is take an English string and put it into French so this is why I for instance maintain a lot of packages not related at all with organizations such as some bubble some backup well as my main point in all this stuff is to try to we say French on the mayonnaise to help all things work together and if I can summarize last year's that God we already had a few item and sessions the main conclusion was to decide to try building a common infrastructure everybody know that will do as Rosetta this is quite good tool in his objectives we all more agree that it has drawbacks when it comes out localization especially around quality assurance and life so the idea was to build our own infrastructure in a lien instead of the various hacks we are all around together with material available - translator one of the challenge would have is to make this material available for potentially new translators around this table there are many many skilled people we can gather things from DLC and for whatever place can be that's ok for us that if we want to extend this to more languages more cultures we need to make things simple and that was the poison we finally decided to go on with Putin because of the good support of the work for people and also because you can't go with rather because I said that is non-free okay since then we had this extreme ability thanks to all the examiner rural region people and he gathered us with this set of a server so it's working now and since then he did nothing we did nothing with this tool that's one of the challenge would have is try to do something more with the server at least we put on actually the server there's a lot of work that many people do not notice the material now you find in the Debian website is available because of sweet run on the server because of the work of tomorrow you who is not here because of the work of Felipe on Nicolas some little bit ID also and we have to do more with this thing Chris Willman from the package description translation this is a huge challenge huge amount of sensation the current system doesn't scale very well with load of work so one of the challenge we have in hopefully this week is to try to import the material in water and right there are technical challenges so we have some technical sessions to have another challenge we have is to give beloved movies managers some good with his goals for Lenny 418 and of course Nicolas sent this morning made to the Libyan Iceland mailing list which are supposed everybody around is subscribe to and well the main point is to see these way these goals are acceptable for at least all of us and if we can think of other with these goals around 89 the main point being here is to decide how we will do that I proposed a kind of daily work session would that be okay for everybody around of course we are like 20 other people we could just sit down someplace it would be hard to schedule because this can do it is already done so we may switch from time to time but I would like to have it at the same power they that fit with your schedule do you know this sorry conflicts somewhere there is there is no space yesterday we checked always more than one hour I think so we should do this all do this early the lunch time how many hours to would be good and then three hours will be bought the dinner it was thinking about 10 to 12 usually talks only boss we are only buffs individually usually after dinner we only have Forks so could imagine using your one of tokens somebody has access trick not on game looks like this is the beta version 2 version should be able sometimes doesn't answer as we well I suppose I see there is nothing after six I taught the Knights were free for protection so that will be great to know the topic of the each day actually to us to the copy so we can set it up one now that would be a good point we have okay we are some day so we can say there could be some event Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday we can't Thursday is the C is the C dinner so no Thursday so I mean one - that would be nice and that would make the six if we wrote Saturday but maybe a lot of it was living during Saturday afternoon honey once people start solving well at least five five two hours oh good what this will be okay for 8 p.m. yes Co even earlier if we want I have to need authorization server well at 7:00 that's an afternoon so H will be good for you yeah it is fine so okay let's decide for 8:00 and sorry okay back to him after maybe we can define a meeting place then fine we can talk together it's really tomorrow yeah tomorrow but it's in the basement so we will move for tomorrow we can do it in the lower box I'll see that with China okay so eight starting tonight weekend I think I scared you guys general say be good so say okay tonight we will work on this that that's a tricycle what that will be [Music] no I will be okay it's up to you guys to use it or not what was it good for tonight veggie first stop on the wheelies goats I think okay yeah three Zeus Antwon and Nikolas also someone in the Debian I see them so it's basically the same that yeah he's who said about DTP of my kids districts and stuff when we could have scared a few more ID which are interesting I think you'll be okay for tonight say the widdy's goals from ITN wish for the next ones could be at some moment yes whiskey we have a lot of stew true you don't have much space but we have space for people to do stuff over there so there was one of the things that I'm going to do is me on that pump is actually take the meat of that I a teenager have all daily food how we get power you get an account how we get X is what's available and you work that week each not duplicated documentation this is just for forever administration it was just for any for the rest of the info should be on that there will be under Debian with the item and dock on the Debian Joaquin sure I mean we could set the small summary for tomorrow for Monday but just have you maybe do whatever with animation on what we have sure maybe Nikolas can talk about what is running an ad also your companion stuff onto I will show the various things that involve more than me and we keep space for a summary of what would be needed for importing little work yes as to have the the reports from external do reports how scary is important well justjust it's just for everybody knows because almost nobody knows we could only afford one language for for the whole day DPP and put those talk with my baby and we have like 27 it's much better now yeah future is is much better now nickel a bit off each other poodels people so I think with what we could also decide is to force you to upgrade and package the last Reuters person yes and upload it and upload it but I can just work I don't I don't think so but the the package for the new version is done I'm just thinking about packaging the next one because it now I said I'm quite ready but Christian wants this one so we need we need something that's put about 100 and if we it would be too bad to wait for people 101 okay will be better than swallow because I can just approach backwards for you the performances of Peter 1.0 should be checked should be checked yes [Laughter] it wasn't tested on on a server with 20,000 of po5 hmm we have one yeah that could be the second box second follow the me of the geographies so actually it would be good if we have the new cutter by tomorrow but we are not know but we don't have to wait for you to officially release the pootle package in the archive you can just build one for it already exist okay so you give it a Monday I'm not sure we will be able to work on DDP stuff at the same time I think that we should have brittle way to use all of us with how the DB TP works early our original secret plans for the future is having an IAT name for developed world which will be below in the DDP on that server so that's one of the things that you have a mind like have an hour hour or in history over there yes yeah so we we are allowed to switch all the translation and all stop and shut down also yeah what we need to find is the bridge between the two two ways to work company TP that some heat over the use yeah there is yes TSS and they use it that summary by you we can just informal this memory of how is the now what it is doing and what is the D DTS answer and how do you produce purifies country and then we'll see how we can import that could be on some some by port what right warden in install only on the screen the screens and projectors but whiteboards they didn't sell I would like to fight a shark it it I'm not sure that I would hassle to explore other things if I must prepare some style Wednesday Wednesday is the tourist day so do we plan something that day with everybody come if we have a meeting at 8:00 race is open your body so you scan your eyes I would be there anyway it will rain to have the Disco's already yeah we need probably to save the last meetings for well maybe conclusions or things we don't have we didn't have time enough to discuss one of the things that probably you should address that is not address or can be addressed in the Google is the license again falkland stations but we also didn't write like a couple of lines of policy to say that you should license your translations to be clear it's not going in it's just a short guideline I'm doing that in Brazilian Portuguese but another thing that I would like to discuss and I don't have I don't know if we have much mood for that is the website because we started changing a few bits of it and we start we are preparing now if I don't I didn't fund just yet but we try to find me because Tom's checking the licensing and I'm checking the that will governmental structures because we want to move it for a new website for new face all that but without all the typos mock-ups and publish but I would like to hear with the translators how do men always important if how we can change things without breaking everything so translation licensing website with site documentation yeah kaalia film others is not here about the will come probably at the next sessions and it would be interesting if we have some discussion about documentation yeah because we are using several types of documentation like Devon dog and some parts docbook xml in other parts and probably and sometimes it's translated with few files sometimes it isn't so it's not very consistent so that would be a lot for when there is just a small so the point is not we need to present again what to do I think we are more or less aware of these things but to change IDs again change you try to find a way try to find a way to open we are listing goals because we are [Music] acting that was yeah that this is something I go and together later it shows yeah so it thinks about t deaths let's call this deaths or not a good idea does not but because I remember the discussions between Edie Xavier in the medulla we have a good summary I went on it recently you this work and we have a good summary on the wiki about this t dealt with very good ideas and someone was poking yeah when you and we kind of three thoughts the whole idea and the problem with with T Depp's is that it increases really really very in a very large game the number of packages actually you have as it proposed it is proposed now it would actually create one supplemental package for every pair of package so actually for every package you have as many supplemental packages as translations so that's that big huge and on the other hand what I've talked abou key was that maybe we should instead try to implement what Scott James remnant suggested a while back I think three or four years ago I mean when he talked about the dg2 and creating some kind of classes of files within every every debian package so you actually use some classification and use some filters on those clouds of parts so on a default system you would actually start everything as you would usually but if you want to have a custom thing you would actually unfilter so they actually say okay these are these are romanian translations so I want all Romanian his transition system everything else every other transition this is I see me the idea of of Ubuntu localization packages am I was also looking at so definitely we need a session for this yeah but so that we don't collide or do the same thing in in two different other you problems Michael in German Shila vision fish island life and not Michael Schumacher no mission so we should bring it even if we say some places okay so yeah it would be nice to have someone feeling more in charge for each session so ad has been nominated for Friday about death and the light oh maybe there's a volunteer yeah for Wednesday everybody okay I could be a more technical session about DDT PPSS how to report DTV to put or could be on Tuesday it's good I think to have it early because this afterwards we want to work to do technical work between these two Dakara I won't do anything just just move the things not the only one to speak and we can save all the people were still here on Saturday turning on by that user it's like the flight was 300 okay so we're a small on Saturday we can ways to summarize when you schedule the the presentation of presentation on yes presentation of the various services yeah but what we were already doing on churro is on Monday just before the cheese party we have a collision because the cheese and of course [Music] we have some more graphs last week yeah something it's working yes no it's working everyday so we will have we only yes very much appreciated and this way you could work pressing input to be 100% sure we are no longer one a third person later and thanks to this meet with you project as in the statistics our way the packaging when the road is slowly taking my Nikolas oh I will rest and sleep yes there are a lot of things to do I think is there possible what translators are using I mean let's say the translator wants to use put or is there going to be a recommendation to you is T CSS in input role itself going to have fallback for other phones so I think there may be something defined like that I think the poodle guys are trying to to gather some information about various languages what is the preferred phone the a perfect size and stuff like is it possible to to underline some some text or just in some languages if you underline the text just not readable so you have to use another trick sizes and sometimes you do need to have the browser also understand some languages there there are some regulations sometimes so I'm pretty sure there is our way about the problem I don't know how it is implemented in the boot of server because it's small [Music] show me show me the page of the wiki where there are the that will be useful to have like a big poll among different stages asking for their they're good I prefer this one because it was better for that they have that in be useful and also for the meeting meeting team to kind of identify which ones this week packaged or if they are phones that are restricted then maybe talking about is the page about Anna Holmes maintained by davide VP and so yeah we have to be careful about not overlapping but so that I don't think it would overlap actually me being in the in the form kind of attempts to avoid a focus so yeah there does a lot of things to do there's been in the discussion recently of the package phones about the various fonts for Chinese language and designing related languages because there are some complex issues I don't understand anything else there are technical issues as well as as Leo and I speak thank you beautiful to be able to work where the work should happen but I mean maybe it's a different kind of use case maybe the phones that you use that are best for installer might not be the phones that you use on your browser when the system is installed or you have to relate it to the installer because when you choose to install say in in Japanese you want the best of Japanese so there tasks what to install everything the situation with the to do concession complete doesn't III think there's me that the organization config is dead the point of this package for those who don't know about it was to choose the final steps of organization that touches every package configuration file so by definition is completely policy broken so it should be LC it should not be interesting and it is not a fireman we find the iceberg at the end of each race I thought about it it seems that the Dillion a new people are still interested in it but I think after I maintain it for a while it's not necessarily the correct approach to configure other packages according to the foundation we better this package be a property to gdm respect the locality etc so it's closer to tough selling these things finding the right forms to incorporate in a given localization especially from complex languages that's why we only don't black in languages that you trust the people in the communities that use these languages I think they're the best people to give us that kind of resolution because even the best designers won't know the right consistency of the way scripture loop here that's obvious but maybe efforts with are more or less joined with two people some of them joined recently maximum and launched about found the big mess of forms in Debian and also a script also to do fun complete information especially for teacher K languages so not exactly a book I can think better and the person will just touch the fun contain configuration according to specially for an expert that would be nice also for the people working on input methods especially stuff input methods so the difficult part is to follow what is explaining because but they do a lot of people involved in the old complex languages or VD stuff we discovered recently broken stuff in di yeah that's a also challenge because I think the main challenge for the wall is already lost in Europe anyway so yeah there are so many items so many things need to work together yeah tons of language know about the economic website the Bible for a people working on idea okay someone comes with a strange language and you see the trees and mystics and but I just check this morning and sure was completely there was that working no one noticed I just yeah keep this in mind I hadn't mind to make it at the end of the year did you happen to see it's already yeah yeah we talked about that if we if you're not aware we reported about the meetings or the Extremadura meetings reported them in February conference so all the six meet the end meeting were presented yeah which fits the release schedule yes so not eating something in late November December or something it's always keep time for all this at least the final reading okay | DebConf Videos |

iZFs0zWmD5I | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iZFs0zWmD5I | Complex Induced Proximity Effect (C.I.P.E) l Organo lithium reagent l Csir & Gate Organic Special | [Music] hi everyone welcome to rpv residence chemistry so now i'm going to discuss about one of the most important topic regarding to the like csar nata and the gate chemistry paper okay so this is very important topic for like uh those highly competitive exams is they are a gate exam so this is concept from like a reasons especially it is came from organometallic reagents in organic chemistry okay so today topic is a complex induced proximate effect simply it is known as a cipe okay so many of these students they didn't they didn't know about this effect that is a cipe that is nothing but a complex induced proximity effective complex induced proximity effect now i'll explain those effect very simply so this is the like a aromatic compound simply it is a aryl compound okay so here x is equal to many many type of groups now i will explain those are the x groups okay so whenever aryl compounds treated with organo lithium either secondary lithium or general primary lithium okay secondary butyl lithium are n lithium what about the lithiums so organo like a rail compounds are treated with organo lithium reagents it forms the like it forms the metallation at outdoor position it forms the metallation at the position it forms the methylation at out of the position why because so here it is the it is the hydrogen here it is the x group so that x group which can direct the like a beta lithium towards the other group that's why those are called the dom directing direct into the ortho methylation dom is nothing but it directed to the ordo methylation or the methylation now here let's let's assume here it is the like our lithium let's imagine here it is the like um like it is it let's imagine our lithium okay so this x group which can coordinate with the lithium atom okay so which is readily coordinate with the lithium atom so then the bond into two electrons will obstruct the proton will abstract the proton from our position and these bonded two electrons like will abstract the lithium so simply here it produces the lithium here it produces the lithium that is simply it is called as organolithium reagents organolithium reagents will abstract the proton from aryl compounds will abstract the proton from aryl compounds which are adjacent to the some x group simply it is known as a complex induced proximity effect i repeated my sentence again organo lithium reagents will abstract the proton from our position of aryl compounds which having the some x group of aryl compounds which having the same exo group so those x groups are either nr2 h2o methyl so2 like a sulfonamide groups also sulfonamide groups also so those x groups can easily participate the like it can easily exhibits the complex induced proximity effect complex induced proximity effect so now the users of this cipe effect when it forms the like uh ortho methylation then it creates the ortho methylation so then these part will act as a negative and it is positive that negative means it is a nucleophile so that nucleophile easily easily attacks the electrophile and it can creates the many like many carbon dioxide okay many single bonds for example if like if electrophile is equal to either aldehydes or ketones or co2 or epoxide are primary alkyl halides like a primary alkylates those are the electrophiles okay so whenever it forms the air like cardo methylation that order position will act as the nucleophile that nucleophile will attacks the electrophile will capture the electrophile and it forms the c electrophilic newborn c electrophilic newborn this is the simplest thing that is regarding to the organolithium region that is nothing but complex induced proximity effect i think it is clear so simply it is nothing but abstraction of a proton abstraction of proton by using the organolithium reagents from aryl compounds like from the aromatic compounds either heterocyclic compound heteroaromatic compounds also it is also possible for the hydroaromatic compost this is the simplest complex induced proximity effect okay now let's move on to the like some of the exceptions in cip okay it having some exceptions so after discussing the exception i will draw the one of the uh good pie chart for cip examples okay now so the first exam the first exception okay so if x group is here x group is there so if x group is halogen especially that is a chlorine or bromine or iodine okay either chlorine or bromine are iodine so whenever we use the beta lithium instead of ardo lithiation or ortho methylation it can easily participate the like metal halogen exchange process instead of ortho lithiation it is easily replaces the metal group is it sorry it is easily replaces the like a halogen group then simply it is called as that is metal halogen exchange process this is nothing but metal halogen exchange process simply it is called as metal halogen exchange process i think it is clear okay so i'll after after the completion of cip i'll explain the metal halogen exchange process also okay so if it having the x is equal to fluorine so fluorine cannot affects the direct like metal hydrogen exchange it affects the like a ortho methylation it affects the ortho methylation so it gives the are the methylation okay this is the first exception this is the first exception now the second exception is so here any substrate or any reactant it having the two types of a functional group one is a nitrogen containing group another one is oxygen containing group so when it happens like now i'll explain very clearly so this is the group like a ch2 n methyl taken twice here it is the o methyl so this is the substrate okay so whenever these kind of substrates are there now we used the n butyl lithium in hexane solvent so this is the simple reaction when we use a theme and beta is adventure so it can directly attach these like a nitrogen or the group of so are the position which is a respect to the nitrogen it it direct metallation takes place with respect to the like uh nitrogen why because the nitrogen group it has the like a more coordinating ability so the nitrogen group which having the more coordinating ability coordinating ability due to the more coordinating ability which can direct its its other position more than the methoxy group or oxygen group okay nitrogen having the like more coordinating ability that's why it directs the metal group towards its ortho position over than the oxygen oxygen this is the simplest thing now we will get the almost all eighty percent yield eighty percentage of yield now instead of um like a n hexane like instead of anything here the combination and hexane is common sorry lithium here it is combination with a lambda it is more complicating again okay tamara is nothing but a tetramethylene diamond this is more complicating agent complex heating isn't okay uh please ignore this spellings so importance of some solvent so beta lithium which is coordinated with complexing agent like like a tempera so here it directs the ordo methylation with respect to the oxygen with respect to the oxygen this is the second exception with respect to the oxygen why because here like a complex in getting complexating agent which refers to the order position which refers to the like uh ordo to oxygen okay although with respect to the oxygen but it gets only very less percentage of 58 percent of yield i think it is clear okay so this kind of a nitrogen and oxygen containing groups are there so the nitrogen are oxygen containing groups which can treat it with ambition lithium generally it it gives the like a ortho methylation with respect to the nitrogen due to the it's more like a coordinating ability coordinating ability but when you usually like a tampda it is more complex setting isn't like which are already discussed at the like osmium tetraxene which can chelates the groups that's why uh due to the it's a complexing is imp ability it directs the ortho position with respect to the oxygen with respect to the oxygen these two are the like uh simple exceptions in cip simple exceptions in cap so now let us discuss the some of the examples now let us discuss the some of the examples okay now in case of like a so here it is the co and r2 simply it is nothing but a dimethylglass dmg okay it is a dmg not a dimethyl glycogen directed to direct to the methyl group directing to the like a metallation group not methyl directing to metallation group any group like which are represented in the x like in the form of x c o and r two c o n h r s o t and r two like those kind of materials or2 and r2 all the groups are simply it is known as the dmg okay those kind of groups okay so these kind of groups which are readily participate like which already exhibits the like a ready exhibits the cip effect now let's compare the some of the examples whenever these kind of elements are there instead of like a dimethyl we will take the dimethyl group alcl3 in methyl iodide we know that that is frederick crafter alkylation okay so the freedom curve alkylation lessers the uh its reactivity impedance of electron withdrawing group uh even though sometimes it shows the character but it is a meta directing group it is meta directing group so we will get this kind of material but whenever we need the like uh methylation at other position this is the best group this is the best reaction whenever we use the like a corresponding organolithium reason it creates the co and r2 like in methyl taken phase it creates the methylation that is a arthrolithium like a lithiation at other position and it creates the nucleophilicity at our auto group then we use the methyl iodide simply we will get the methyl group co and methyl taken first method this is the best way to prepare the are the alkyl groups although alkyl groups are the carboxylic acids like those kind of are though uh any type of alcohols okay are those alcohol so those kind of groups are readily prepared with the help of capee effect with the help of cape effect now i'll give the very simple table our pie chart regarding today these are cipa examples these are cipa examples okay so this is the best example co and methyl methyl okay so when we use it like methyl iodide we will get that means here it is already lithiation takes place then we will get methyl group over there co okay so i don't want to represent the all the molecules simply it is nothing but dmg let's imagine this is the dmg okay so then after we will take the like any kind of uh esters hco ethyl it is the acid ester which donates the like a aldehyde group as a electrophile ester which donates the aldehyde group as a electrophile so here it is nothing but dmf dmf also aldehyde as an electrophile it is it is also having the aldehyde as an electrophile aldehyde as the electrophile so not only that we usually like co2 in presence of h plus we will get the carboxylic acid like we will get the carboxylic acid so not only this so some of the compounds are like o2 and h plus so you will get the dmg in c like a in oh h or sometimes like a torso aside in presence of linear bh4 okay so n3 imprints of any bh4 it can converts into a and h2 so directly it is although immunization takes place or the elimination takes place or sometimes imprints of like diphenyl phosphorus chloride so we use the these kind of reagents here it creates the pph2 taken twice that is a phosphorous reagents which can create the phosphorus reagents not only these compounds are some of the like halogens we will also get the halogen derivatives halogen so these are the very important very important aspect to to synthesize the many of the different compounds many of the different compounds at a aromatic rings at aromatic rings so this is these are the one of the example okay now i'll explain the sum of the example also okay and write down okay so these are very very important examples okay now so before going to the metal halogen exchange process very simple example is there so here it is the like a like oxygen derivative that is a furon which having the methyl group at the second position this is true methyl fura okay when we use the beta lithium here like a lithiation takes place at this fifth position this is the like a second position like the second or fifth based on this obstacle to the second position okay so then we use the these kind of material like this kind of material so this is the like primary primary that is nothing but a allylic okay when we use this kind of material we will get these this is the as a product this one has product method okay so simple reactions what will happen in the brains of beta lithium it creates the lithiation at second position or like based on the substituent it is fifth position it creates the lithiation at fifth position so that is act as a nucleophile that nucleophile will attach the like a ll bromide which which can gives the like this kind of material this kind of a product okay then finally whenever importance of hydrolysis we will get this kind of product okay so this is the product i think it is clear so when whenever it undergoes the hydrolysis here it is o h here it is o h these two are undergoes they like uh that means the ketogenic automatization will get this kind of material this kind of substrate i think it is clear okay so heterocyclic aromatic compounds can also gives the this kind of cipe effect not only this so sometimes like thiophene also gives this reaction thiophenol also gives the these this kind of reaction that is a lithiation attacks so some of the times they are like texting your knowledge okay that means so whenever in presence of furan and the thiopin so both are there but they are given in the only one equivalent of british lithium one equivalent of butyl lithium which one readily lithiated or which one readily metallation takes place okay which one can readily participate in the methylation reaction either oxygen also absolutely like a thiophene readily participates the reaction and furon unaffected furan unaffected so this is the competition this is the competition for the cip okay so i think it is very clear it's very uh like a simple abstraction of a proton like a obstruction of a proton from aryl or the position or a rail compounds okay so we cannot say the like other components in case of uh aromatic uh like heterocyclic compound it it does not apply okay so simply abstraction of a proton from a rail compounds and then after it creates the it creates the negative charge over there and it acts as a nucleophile whenever in the presence of some of the x groups which are represented in the starting of the video those are the nr2 like c o n r c o and h r like s o t n r to those kind of x groups in terms of those kind of x groups so there are some exceptions are there if x is equal to chlorine bromine iodine if a metal hydrogen reaction takes place metal halogen exchange takes place instead of ortho ortho methylation that was the first exception and second exception imprints of nitrogen and oxygen simply nitrogen can having the more like a more complexing ability so not the complexion coordinating ability that's why it directs the metal group its ortho position over than the oxygen now second imprints are for like more complex ingredients like it it prefers the like outdoor position towards its oxygen towards the oxygen now some of the examples are also discussed now let's move on to the metal halogen exchange sources metal halogen exchange process so it is very important for the csr exam okay so they are given in the direct copyright questions from george g phil and the cabillion characters these examples came from those start those kind of standard books only okay now now i'm very interested to take the like a tara promoting okay so simply whenever i use it like a methyl lithium so this is the so metal halogen exchanger let's imagine so it it follows the metal halogen exchange that indicates so metal group and halogen group in these two compounds which are transfer or which are like a transfers their metal and halogen group now that means which are exchanged their metal and halogen group here it is a metal is replaced and here halogen is the replacement methyl halide here it is the lithium so that indicates here creates the here if it creates the negative charge over there that means it is a nucleophile okay so are sometimes like uh same methyl reason are used so instead of metal halogen exchange process here it undergoes the methylation reaction metallation means that it attacks the metallic a more acidic proton like more silica proton is a benzylic one so that's why it undergoes the metallation at a ch3 that is benzylic position so this is very slow process this is very slow process but it is very faster process it is very fast process okay so that's why metal halogen exchange reaction it gives readily that means it is very faster reaction it gives you very really it is very faster reaction so let's take the sum of the example in presence of like a three bromothiophene it it is also readily gives the like a metal halogen exchange process metal halogen exchange process not only this kind of aromatic like a heterocyclic a six-membered heterocyclic ring also gives the same result which is also gives the like same result so this is also like an example of metal halogen exchange process not only these kind of materials like a cn in presence of bromide so here also beta lithium it replaces the lithium group and when we use the like a benzophenone uh it we will get this kind of material oh phenyl phenyl cyanide and alpha 9 cyanide so not only those groups like no2br these kind of materials these kind of reasons are sorry these kind of substrates are also used for the beta lithium so no2 in presence of lithium so here we use the any kind of material any kind of electrophile we'll get the then o2 and ch2oh as a product ch2oh as a product so after the hydrolysis after height also we will get this kind of product okay so this is the metal halogen exchange process i think this is very very important class for those csr and gate aspirants so they are given in the like a direct concept or either indirect questions in any of the organic competitive exams okay any of the like organic problems okay so they are given in the like are gonna lithium reaction like in the potential compounds this was very important factor to remember those kind of those kind of criteria that means aryl compounds which having the like reagent on your mark so arrow market having the like a very simple argon or lithium reagent this is the wonderful reaction this is the wonderful reaction i think it is very helpful for you guys that is a like a it's very simple thing complex induced approximate effect i think it is very helpful for you guys thank you so much for watching | Rpb Resonance

heys in Ireland who held in her own right the county of oler after her early death he espoused as his second wife Yolanda visanti daughter of the Lord Lord of Milan John of gun the next brother made the most wealthy match of the whole family when only 19 he married blanch of Lancaster the heys of Henry of Lancaster the victor of kadant and oberos she was in her own right Countess of Lancaster Darby Lincoln and Lester and the Estates which she brought to her husband were the broadest Heritage in England Edmund of Langley the fourth surviving son of Edward III married as his first wife a Spanish princess as his second his eldest brother's stepdaughter Joanna Holland lastly Thomas of Woodstock the youngest of the princes obtained as his bride elanar Bohan one of the two coarses of the ancient earldom of Herford at different times Edward conferred on each of his sons the title of Duke a dignity hitherto unknown in England the Prince of Wales was made Duke of Cornwall Lionel Duke of Clarence John Duke of Lancaster Edmund Duke of York and Thomas Duke of Gloucester of the three daughters of Edward iiiii who reached adult years Mary married John V the mfor claimant to the duchy of Britany Margaret was wedded to John Hastings Earl of Pembrook and Isabel fella to Ingam deusi a French Baron who served her father as a great captain of mercenaries he was created Earl of Bedford during Edward's own lifetime the concentration of so many of the richest thiefs in the hands of his sons undoubtedly strengthened the crown and enfeebled the baronage to a corresponding extent but he does not seem to have reflected that he was leaving an unenviable future to his successor d to have to deal with uncles and cousins who were not only very powerful territorial Nobles but also princes of the blood with possible claims on the crown in endowing his younger Sons with such enormous power he was contributing his part toward making the wars of the Roses possible it was the excessive strength of the House of Lancaster which proved the ruin of Richard II and in the later generation it was the overg greatness of the heir of the United lines of York Clarence and Mortimer which brought down the House of Lancaster to its bloody end Edward does not seem in the least to have foreseen that though his own Sons would obey and support him the patriarch of their race yet his grandsons would have no such feelings of loyalty to his eldest son's air meanwhile these dangers were still in the far future and Edward seemed in 1860 the most successful Sovereign of his age his Fame as a soldier was spread all over Europe and the English who before his time enjoyed no special military repute became the models of all Western Christendom the soldiers trained in his Wars Sir John Chandos noes Manny Thomas and William Felton and the guest gon deay the Capal Debush were reckoned the best Knights of their day Sir John hawkwood who had risen from the ranks to become a captain of adventurers passed on into Italy with his band and carried the balance of power in the peninsula with him as he served one state or another with the famous white company this ascendency of the English in the field implied the predominance of infantry as the chief power in war to the detriment of the feudal chivalry which had ruled Europe for the last 5 centuries in the new system whose first victories had been seen at Duplin and hodon Hill the knights descended from their steeds and formed a solid Center of resistance while the yman with their deadly archery took the more active share in the repulse of the Hostile attack Edward III must have the credit of applying this order of battle which had originally been devised against the Scottish Spearman to the discomfort of the French feudal horse the effect of CI and puer was so great that The Art of War in Western Europe was wholly revolutionized and the French Germans and Italians took to dismounting and fighting on foot like the English this loss of military ascendancy by the nobless was still further developed by another military change of the 14th century Firearms whose feeble Beginnings go back to the first decade of Edward's Reign were slowly improving and come com into more General use all through the succeeding generation though their size was still small and their discharge slow they proved almost as deadly to the feudal Castle as the yman arrow had been to the feudal Horsemen it began to be possible to breach by the use of Cannon strongholds which had hitherto been reckoned impregnable this gave the king the only person in the realm who possessed a competent train of artillery and advantage in dealing with with unruly Barons such as he had never before enjoyed Rebels could no longer rely on holding out behind their walls for many months nor count starvation the only form of attack that they need dread but the power of Cannon to break up feudalism was only just beginning to be realized in the later days of Edward iiiii it was not fully developed till the 15th century Edward III did almost as much to advance the growth of England trade and commerce as to increase English military Prestige but his work in this province was not wholly intentional when encouraging close commercial intercourse with Flanders he was thinking mainly of the political advantages of the connection with the Flemings and also hoped to draw Financial profits from the taxes on increased exports and imports but there can be no doubt that his netherlandish and German alliances took Englishmen further field than they had been W to go before and had favorable results on the national trade its volume increased so rapidly during The Reign that Edward first of all English kings was able to introduce a gold currency into the realm before his time the silver penny had been the largest monetary unit but he succeeded in issuing with General approval a large gold coin called The Rose Noble one of which exchanged for 80 Pence this broad handsome piece secured such General acceptance that it circulated freely in the Netherlands and Western Germany and many of the Lords and towns of the low countries took to striking money exactly imitating the Noble in type and size this extension of the English currency is closely connected with the fact that from the time of Edward III onward the English were beginning to send their own mer Merchants abroad and no longer were content to receive all Continental Goods at the home ports from foreign ships down to the 14th century the greater part of the Seaborn merchandise which England consumed was brought her by the Italians or the traders of the htic league Edward very properly encouraged his subjects to sail abroad themselves so as to get rid of the middleman and the charges which he exacted for transporting Commodities to England to compete with the powerful foreign trading societies the native Merchants were bound together in the company of the staple whose institution we have already had occasion to notice though monopolies are generally harmful yet in this case it was almost necessary to secure strength by combination as the individual Trader would have been helpless if he tried to oppose himself to the interests of the corporations of aliens whose markets he was invading by the end of the century the the limits of English seafaring trade were Lisbon and hamborg into the Mediterranean it did not yet penetrate and the Baltic was almost entirely in the hands of the zealous htic league but Cher's typical shipment as it will be remembered knew all Havens from gothland to the Cape of finair that is from Northwestern Spain to the coast of Sweden manufacturers were developing no less than trade King Edward never did a wiser deed than when he invited the Flemish Weavers to settle in norch and make up on the spot the fine English wool which used formerly to be taken over to the Netherlands in order to be woven into cloth in the true protectionist Spirit a law of 1337 prohibited the wearing of any but English cloth by all person save the royal family weaving was not the only craft which took a new start in the 14th century from the introduction of foreign teachers metal work was much improved and the use of glass in domestic architecture grew much more common the influence of the Black Death on trade and prices deserves notice it not only raised the wages of the Agricultural classes in despite of the statute of laborers but increased the selling value of all manufactured goods while corn and other natural products of the soil remained at their old level of price and while sheep and oxen Rose only slightly in value all the things produced by skilled manual labor cost from 40 to 60% more than they did before the Great Plague this came of course from the fact that the Artisans had been seriously reduced in numbers so that the survivors were able to demand much higher prices for their handiwork since the cost of food remained the same as it had been before the laboring classes were able to buy it of better quality and in greater quantity than of old and their standard of comfort appreciably went up the merchant profited as much or more from the enhanced selling value of his Wares as he lost through having to pay higher wages to The Artisans who manufactured them on the other hand the capitalist land owner was in a worse position than in the days before the Black Death since his farm produce cost more in the item of Labor and yet sold for much the same money that it had in the first half of the century hence two Tendencies had their rise the landowner who had been want to cultivate a large part of his estate himself as a home Farm under a baliff in demine as the turn then was either abandoned the practice and let the demean land at a rent to tenant Farmers or tried to turn his arable Fields into pasture for a greater profit was to be had from rearing sheep for their wool the great staple product of England than by growing any sort of corn these changes however were only beginning to make themselves felt in King Edward's time it takes many years to turn a simple race of conservative habits into new methods of life and husbandry the actual loss of population by the Black Death took many generations to repair it seems to have been felt far more in some districts than in others the Southern and Eastern counties suffered more in proportion than the Western and probably lost in consequence somewhat of the enormous superiority in wealth and importance which they had hither to possessed they still remained however the preponderant part of the realm nine years were destined to elapse between the conclusion of the Treaty of bartini and the renewal of the war with France they were on the whole a time of peace and prosperity for England and as is generally the case during such periods there is little of importance to record in the domestic anals during their course the intermittent quarrel with the papacy which had been going on for many years caused the renewal of the statute of provisors and the confirmation of a statute of prime munir so-called because by it persons who took appeals to the pope at aino were warned beforehand Prime munti that they made themselves liable to be brought before the king's Courts for showing contempt of his exclusive right of jurisdiction in England the 1365 the rits against such offenders began with the words Prim mun fakas and hence came the name of the statute some Curious legislation against the wearing of clothing too good for their condition by the lower and middle classes Bears witness to their growth and prosperity since the Black Death like all sumptuary laws it had no effect and had soon to be abandoned it is perhaps worth noting also that in 1362 English was was made the official language of the Law Courts where Norman French had hitherto prevailed the Foreign Affairs of the realm are of more importance and from the first made it evident that the Treaty of bratin was to be a truce and not a permanent pacification its terms were never fully carried out king JN failed to raise his enormous Ransom and when he found that it could not be collected loyally returned to England and surrendered his person since he had failed to keep his promise he died at the palace of the seavoy in the Strand on April 8th 1364 when he had passed away his son Charles I a very crafty and unscrupulous Prince refused to listen to any complaints as to the non-observance of the treaty but he was as yet too busy in pacifying his own realm to stir against the English he was not even firmly set upon the throne till the claims of his turbulent cousin Charles the bad of Navar were crushed by the defeat of kosel and disposed of by a treaty signed in May 1365 the Breton war of succession which had been raging ever since 1341 at last reached its termination in 1364 the younger John of mfor the Ally of the English at last succeeded in winning complete possession of his duche by slaying his rival Charles of blis at the Battle of o a fight gained by The Valor and tactical skill of Sir John Chandos and the other English Knights who served under his Banner September 29th 1364 but another war in which England was interested was to lead to less happy results it was the work of Edward the black prince who had been ruling in aiten almost as an independent Prince since his father handed it over to him and gave him the ducal title in 1362 to his court at BTO there came as a suppliant an exiled Spanish Prince Pedro king of Castile whom his subjects surnamed the cruel he was a Stern and high-handed Prince whose harsh and wicked rule he had murdered his wife and one of his half Brothers among countless other victims had driven the castillons into Revolt the Insurrection had been headed by his bastard brother Henry count of trastamara who had called into his Aid a great host of French mercenaries led by beron De Gan a famous Breton captain of adventurers Henry with the help of these allies easily expelled Pedro from his realm and had himself crowned as king 1366 the Exile urged on the black prince that his situation in aiten would be perilous if he let the neighboring Spanish lands pass under the control of a dependent of the French he promised to repay all the expenses of the war if Edward would restore him to his throne and to bind himself the closer to the English offered to leave his two daughters constant and Isabel in the Black Prince's hands as hostages after some hesitation Edward resolved to give the king his Aid the political advantages of the move influenced him much but he was moved even more by a chivalrous impulse he hated the idea of Turning Away a suppliant and loving War for its own sake he was burning to add new Laurels to those of pitier and espanol Sur accordingly he accepted Pedro's offer and the Nobles of aiten were bidden to prepare for a Spanish war in the next spring John of Gant brought over a small contingent from England but the bulk of the army of invasion was made up of the gascon Nobles and the veteran mercenaries who fly locked in from all quarters to join the prince's Banner so great was his warlike Fame in Europe that more adventurers came to profer him their aid than he could possibly pay or feed he had to send away thousands of them after having picked out the best of the men at Arms to serve him thus his army was composed of none but the choice troops and far exceeded in military value the Spanish feudal levies against which it was to be pitted Edward crossed the Pyrenees by the pass of ronal famous in history and in song for the defeat of the emperor Charles the great in 778 and for the death of count Rolan the hero of the oldest Legend of chivalry Charles the bad gave him a free Passage through Navar and he did not see the enemy till he reached the hills above Victoria where Wellington was to win the crowning victory of the Peninsular War 4 and a half centuries later Henry of trastamara and his French allies had raised a great host which blocked the passes over the hills of alava but the prince outgeneraled them slipped around their flank and crossed the EO entering old Castile the Spaniards hurried back to place themselves between Edward's host and buos the capital of the realm the shock between the two armies took place in a broad level plane between the towns of Nera and navarete the result was never for a moment doubtful though the castilians were somewhat Superior in numbers they were mostly raw troops moreover they were accustomed to the skirmishing tactics of the Moors not to facing the embattled line of dismounted men at Arms flanked by archery the great masses of light Horsemen armed with Buckler and Javelin which formed the most numerous part of Don Henry's host broke and fled away in utmost route a few minutes after they came unto the deadly shower of arrows the French auxiliaries who had sent away their horses and fought on foot as at potier were surrounded and slain or captured to the last man the bastard who had tried in vain to Rally his scattered Horsemen fled away in haste and escaped into France April 3rd 1367 thus St Pedro recovered his kingdom at a single blow he celebrated the victory by beheading such of the prisoners as fell into his hands to the utter disgust of his chivalrous Ally Edward marched with him as far as buros and replaced him in his Palace but dissensions at once began between them Pedro could not or would not repay the vast sums which the prince had spent in raising and paying his army the English hosts were kept cantoned round buros all through the summer suffering severely from the unaccustomed Heat and from a lack of supplies sickness broke out among them and Edward himself was prostrated by an attack of fever meanwhile the castillan king had gone away to Andalusia and sent evasive letters instead of remittances of money at last the prince in high disgust marched back unpaid to aiten leaving his faithless ally to shift for himself by displaying again his old cruelty and recklessness Pedro soon provoked a second rebellion of his subject Henry of trastamara returned defeated him in battle and finally took him prisoner the bastard then settled the succession question by brutally murdering his brother with his own hands March 1369 thus the only result of the victory of navarete was that an implacable enemy of England was now firmly set upon the Castilian Throne while the duy of aiten was overwhelmed with the enormous debt incurred in restoring Don Pedro the prince honestly Desiring to pay what he owed sold his silver plate surrendered to his followers the ransoms of his French and castian prisoners and tried to make up the balance by raising money from his subjects but his proposal to impose on every house in aiten a hearth tax of one Frank provoked bitter opposition the put and other newly annexed vassals of the duy were thoroughly discontented and disloyal and took the first opportunity of withstanding their Master the Estates of aiten refused to vote the impost and when Edward persevered in his plan a body of Barons headed by the Lords of alra and aranyak announced their intention of appealing to the king at Paris this was utterly contrary to the terms of the Treaty of partini by which akien had been freed forever from all feudal dependence on the French Crown The gasan Nobles therefore had no no right to call in Charles I but legality counted for little and the one point of importance was to discover whether the king would dare to involve himself in a new English war after the unhappy experiences of his father and grandfather Charles I resolved to take the risk he had got his realm into something like order during the 5 years which had elapsed since he had crushed the king of Navar and he was well acquainted with the fact that more than half of Edward's subjects and aitan were ready to rebel and join him accordingly he first sent a summon to the black prince to appear at Paris and answer before his suarin for wrongs done to the barrons of the South and when this Preposterous order was ignored commenced hostilities it is said that as a mark of contempt he sent the final declaration of war not by a Herald as was the custom but by the hands of his master cook book April 29th 1369 end of chapter 5 chapter six of England and the Hundred Years War by Charles William Chadwick Omen this LibriVox recording is in the public domain recording by Pamela neami the last years of Edward III 13692 1377 the loss of aiten domestic troubles rise of the wickliff fites from the very first moment of the outbreak of war the struggle with France proved disastrous for England almost before the designs of Charles I were realized news came that the isolated County of pontia had been overrun by the enemy and that abil and its other towns and castles had surrendered the State of Affairs in akien was not much better in many parts of putu peror and guag Powerful Barons disavowed their allegiance and took up arms in behalf of the French King in the war which followed the English lacked the advantage which they had enjoyed in the earlier struggle of being Guided by a single leader King Edward never again took the field though only in his 58th year he was worn out as much in mind as in body the direction of Affairs ought to have passed to his eldest son a man in the prime of Life verging on his 40th year but the black prince had never recovered from the effects of the fever which had stricken him down during his Spanish campaign for the rest of his life he was a confirmed invalid and every exertion which he made was immediately followed by a relapse which sent him back to his sick bed for the first two years of the war he endeavored to stay at the helm but the want of vigor and combination which attended the movements of the English troops showed that he was not himself when he finally was obliged to retire from the scene of action in 1370 the main part of the responsibility fell to his next surviving brother John of gun a busy and ambitious but not a capable Prince he had made many enemies and was never able to command the same unhesitating obedience which had been shown to Edward III and the black prince as long as the younger Edward still kept his court at borau the English continued to defend aiten with moderate success but Sir John Chandos the prince's right-hand man was killed in a petty Skirmish in puatu on December 31st 1369 and after his death things took a turn for the worst in 1370 the French struck deep into the duy of aiten and captured first the strong town of Aon in aena and then the important city of Lio whose citizens treacherously opened their gates to the Invaders the prince took the field for the last time to recover Lio though he was so weak that he could not sit his War Horse and had to be born on a litter he took the place after an obstinate defense by throwing down part of the wall by a mine filled with gunpowder when his men entered the breach he bade them cut down everyone they met for he was much enraged with his rebellious subjects thus his hitherto spotless career was sullied by a massacre in its last moments October 1370 3 months later his health grew so much worse that he took ship for England expecting every moment to be his last but he survived rived the passage and lingered on for more than 5 years at his castle of burk Hamstead a helpless invalid unable to take any part either in war or domestic governance with the departure of the prince things in France went from bad to worse the French could not be kept back from overrunning aiten though two considerable Expeditions had been sent out from Cay to Endeavor to distract them from their prey but by the orders of their King the Nobles of northern France utterly refused battle shut themselves up in their castles and allowed the English to March past them unmolested these unchivalrous but effective tactics caused John of gun in 1369 and Sir Robert nolles in 1370 to march across pakd without effecting anything of note for they had no leisure to engage in sieges and they could not get the battle that they Des desired but in 1372 England made a serious effort to reinforce aiten the parliament had granted the king a subsidy of £50,000 and with it a considerable Army and Fleet were collected and placed under the orders of John Earl of Pembrook the king's son-in-law he crossed the Bay of bis safely but as he drew near L roell the port for which he was aiming found his path beset by a large Spanish Fleet Henry of tramar was bent on revenging Navarette and he had just found another reason for taking strong measures against the English John of gun and his younger brother Edmund of Langley had in the winter of 1371 and 72 wedded the two daughters and ayses of Pedro the cruel who had been dwelling as hostages at BDO ever since their father broke his word in 1367 in virtue of this marriage John gave himself out as the rightful king of Castile Henry was much enraged and had sent forth to Aid the French all the ships that he could gather together a fierce fight ensued off Laro shell in which the English were totally defeated many of their light vessels being sunk by the great stones and masses of iron which the biscans cast down into them from their taller ships June 22nd 1372 Pembrook and many scores of knights were taken Prisoners the defense of akien now that the army of Sucker had been destroyed fell upon the shoulders of the captal Debush the loyal gason Baron who had so much distinguished himself at potier 16 years before he made a gallant fight but was utterly unable to stem the advancing flood of French invasion his forces were too small and the discontented people of the land would give him no help potier neor and LEL fell into the hands of the enemy betrayed by their citizens and with them went almost the whole of puatu sant and auma at last the copal was surprised and taken prisoner in a skirmish near subis and with him Departed the Last Hope of maintaining the English Dominion north of the gon about the same time John I of Britany the one faithful Ally of king Edward saw the greater part of his duy overrun by the French whose forces were led by his own born subject the great condo beron the giz clan who had now been made conable of France 1372 to 1373 in 1373 England made her last effort to turn the fortune of War John of gun was sent over the water with 3,000 men at arms and 6,000 bowmen at Cay he was joined by a great body of mercenaries raised in the Netherlands and Germany we hear to our surprise that he had even enlisted 300 Scottish lances to serve against the French thus a formidable army was mustered but it was led by an incompetent General and was directed on the wrong lines it would have been better to start from Bordeaux and clear peror and S of the enemy instead of starting on a mere destructive raid into northern France the experience of 1369 and 1370 had already shown that such operations had no effect against a king like Charles I who did not intend to fight and could not be stirred to indiscretion even by seeing the Barns and cottages of his subjects blazing up on every side John of Gant was allowed to push his way across picardi and champag as far as the L the French hung about his route and cut off his stragglers but would not offer battle then he moved on into ber and went on ravaging the land on his way to BDO the Autumn had Now set in and among the rugged mountains of OA the Army suffered terrible privations nearly all the horses died of starvation and and many men fell by the way from cold and over fatigue at last they reached Boko ragged and famished after having accomplished no useful end whatever they had inflicted Untold misery on the peasantry of central France but it brought no pressure to bear on Charles I nor even retaken one of the Lost towns of Northern aiten in April 1374 Lancaster disbanded the remnants of his hosts since he could no longer pay them and return to England the failure of his ill-managed expedition was followed by the loss of the greater part of guen and gany the inhabitants felt that the king of England's last bolt was shot and that there was no object in fighting any longer for a lost cause one after another all the towns along the gon and D gave themselves up to the French after feeble and perfunctory resistances by the end of 174 all that was left to King Edward were the cities of Bordeaux and Bayon and the narrow slip of gasone Coastland connecting them all the Inland was gone that the two great sea ports still held out was mainly due to the fact that their trading interests were closely bound up with The English Connection and that they knew that they were getting better and more orderly government from their actual Lord than would be granted them by Charles I it must be remembered too that they had been in the hands of the plantagenets ever since Henry II had married Elanor of aiten 200 years before and had no historical or sentimental ties with the house of Vala considering the utter ruin of the English cause and aiten Edward III must be considered to have been fortunate when in the June of the following year 1375 he succeeded in concluding a suspension of hostilities With the Enemy the truth was for a year but it was renewed for a second 12th month in June of 1376 and actually lasted for the whole of the short remainder of the old King's Reign the five years during which akien was gradually passing into the hands of the French were very important in the Constitutional history of England all through their course a bitter struggle was going on in Parliament caused by the discontent of the nation at the unfortunate issue of the war it's first sign was an outbreak against the king's ministers in 1371 it was easy to attribute the successes of the French to the incapacity of the men whom the king had chosen to carry on the administration of these the most important were two prets William of Wickham Bishop of Winchester the chancellor and Thomas of bringham Bishop of exiter the treasurer both were able and disinterested men Wickam who had first attracted Edward's attention by his skill as an architect had been found an honest and capable Statesman and has left a good name behind him as the founder of Winchester College the first great public school and of the sister Foundation of new College Oxford it was wholly unjust to lay the blame of the losses in akien on the chancellor and Treasurer they were really due to military causes the want of a single competent general-in-chief and the squandering of men and money on the UN wise raids into northern France but the parliament attributed them to the incapacity of the ecclesiastics to rule in time of war and petition the king to dismiss them and to replace them by Layman Edward yielded and Sir Robert Thorp was made Chancellor while Sir Richard scr a follower of John of Gant took over the charge of the treasury the new Administration proved far more unfortunate than that which it had planted John of gun had now become the true ruling power in the realm his elder brother was on his sick bed and his father was falling into his dotage Edward III had lost his wise and faithful wife Philippa of ano in 1369 and shortly after fell into the hands of a worthless adventurous D malice perers in his foolish fondness for her he allowed her to tamper with matters of state and all who wished to advance themselves about the court came to her with bribes she even contrived to interfere with the administration of justice and to frighten or corrupt the judges John of gun left his father in the hands of this Harpy and assumed complete control of Foreign Affairs it was on him that the responsibility for the disasters of 1373 4 and 5 must be laid after the loss of guen he was forced to face Parliament with a lamentable report of money wasted opportunities let slip and provinces lost to the French on the meeting of the good parliament of 1376 the storm of national discontent which had been brewing for the last 3 years burst upon Lancaster's head he was accused justly enough of incapacity but men added unfounded accusations such as the charge of plotting to seize the throne at his father's death to the exclusion of his invalid brother and of The Little Prince Richard the black prince his 9-year-old son it was even whispered that he had planned to get the boy poisoned John himself was too highly placed for the parliament to dare to attack him openly but a vigorous assault was made on his friends and Associates Peter deame the Speaker of the House of Commons boldly declared that the nation was ready to help the king in his distress but that they must first remove from about his person those who were making their private profit out of his misfortunes the three Chief offenders pointed out were the Chamberlain William Lord Latimer Richard Lions the king's Financial agent and Dame Alice perers the two first named had been guilty of disgraceful frauds they had bought up the king's debts from poor men who despaired of ever seeing their money at half their nominal amount or less and then paid themselves in full from the treasury on one occasion they had lent the king 20,000 marks 13,333 6 Shillings 8 and got out of him an acknowledgement for 20,000 Sterling ladimer had extorted a great bribe from the Duke of Britany England's faithful Ally and had then betrayed him by selling his castles of sanso and bashel to the French vladimer and lions were accordingly impeached that is formerly Accused by The Commons and tried by the house of peers the Lords found them guilty and they were sentenced to be fined imprisoned and deprived of their offices several minor offenders were punished at the same time as to Dame Alice the commons accused her of breaking the law which forbade women to meddle with the administration of justice and obtained against her an award of banishment she was made to swear that she would never return to the king's presence an oath which he very soon broke while these trials were in progress the Prince of Wales died June 8th 1376 Parliament petitioned the king that his little grandson Richard should be at once recognized as heir to the crown and that a standing Council should be appointed to carry on the government Edward himself was no longer capable of work and it was felt that John of gun must be prevented from engrossing all the Royal Powers into his hands accordingly the king consented that Parliament should nominate nine person as members of the Council of whom at least four were to be always about his person at the same time he promised to consider favorably the demands contained in a vast list of 140 petitions dealing with all manner of administrative grievances which the commons laid before him two of the most important of these documents demanded the one that parliaments should be annual the other that the sheriffs and other Royal officers should not interfere with the election of kn of the Shire but always allow the return of the persons whom the better folk of the county should nominate on the 6th of July the parliament dispersed having as it fondly supposed crushed Lancaster and provided for the future good governance of the realm the moment that they had broken up John of gon took his revenge and executed a kind of cou d'a he got his doting father into his hands and then used his name to declare that the good Parliament had been no Parliament at all and that its Acts were null and void he threw the late speaker Peter dameer into prison dismissed the nine newly appointed counselors and released Lions and the other culprits who had been condemned Alice perers was allowed quietly to return to court a new Parliament was then summoned to meet and by employing the Royal prerogative in the most unscrupulous fashion and threatening and overawing the electors Lancaster succeeded in getting returned a a large majority of his supporters January 1377 the king had now entered into the 50th year of his Reign and to celebrate his Jubilee proclaimed a pardon and an amnesty to many minor offenders and debtors at the head of the list however appeared the names of ladimer and lions and their underlings who were relieved of all fines penalties and disabilities which had been laid upon them in the previous year all these actions were scandalous and highly calculated to lead to Civil War if the party which opposed the Duke and the court had been headed by a baronial chief of the type of Simon Nur or of the great Earls who had withstood Edward I it is probable that Lancaster would have been overthrown by Force of Arms but this was far from being the case the most prominent leader of the Constitutional party was Bishop William of Wickham a lover of peace and caution in the chief l patron of the cause the young Earl of March was also a man of moderate views no open opposition to Duke John was made at first even when he proceeded to bring against Wickham a ridiculous charge of embezzling public funds as a kind of counter blast to the impeachment of vladimer and lions in the preceding year Lancaster though a short-sighted politici was yet conscious that he must soon be overthrown unless he could manage to enlist a certain amount of of popular sympathy on his side the truce with France being still running he could not appeal to warlike sentiments but there was one strong current of opinion which he thought that he might direct into channels favorable to himself this was the anti-papal feeling which was as strong now as in the days when the statutes of provisors and primer had been passed the court of ainol was going from bad to worse and its Shameless demands and exactions deeply irritated every patriotic Englishman but a great part of the clergy now has always thought themselves bound to side with the papacy and the English church was itself full of abuses and Scandals which did not tend to grow less Bishops who neglected their dioceses and were more at home in war and diplomacy than in spiritual work had always existed but in the 14th century their numbers were greater than ever since the baronage had taken of to putting their younger Sons into the church and pressing them forward for promotion in earlier centuries this had been rare in the 14th it was very common three of the seven archbishops of Canterbury between 1348 and 1400 were Sons or brothers of peers the average of Episcopal piety and unworldliness was not improved by the change among the beneficed clergy there was a great deal of non-residents and appr appreciable amount of simony and a certain proportion of evil living the abies and friaries were worse all accounts agree that the monastic bodies were inferior to the secular priests in Zeal and moral worth it is said that the Hasty filling up of the depleted ranks of the clergy with unqualified and unsatisfactory persons after the Black Death had a permanent effect in lowering the moral tone of the whole body at the same time the church was richer than ever it was believed that a third of the land and wealth of the realm were in clerical hands the clergy always gave liberal grants and convocation for National purposes but this did not satisfy men who complained that their land escaped all feudal Taxation and so did not pay their fair share towards filling the treasury the feeling that something ought to be done to improve the internal condition of the church as well as to check the encroachments of the Pope had long been prevalent and was was shared by many who were themselves clerics among those who were foremost in calling for radical measures of Reform was John whitecliffe sometime master of Bal College a learned Oxford doctor of divinity he had first made his Mark as a deep thinker in philosophy and theology but was driven into politics by his indignation at the corrupt state of the church and the papacy he came to the conclusion that most of the clerical scandals of the day had their roots in the overg great wealth and power of the church and held that the best way to reform it would be to compel the clergy to return to the apostolic Poverty of the early centuries against the papacy as the source of all other evils he was particularly Keen he had been first introduced to public affairs as a member of a deputation sent to Brugge in 1374 to negotiate terms of agreement between the English church and the Pope the evil impression which the papal delegates then made on him he never forgot aong we find him protesting in the strongest terms against the Spiritual Authority which the pope claimed to exercise over the whole church and asserting that it was Blasphemous for him to pose as God's Vice Regent on earth and the mediator between Christ and the individual Christian all men he said employing a familiar metaphor drawn from the feudal system are tenants in Chief under God responsible directly to him for their souls and their manner of Life the pope is like an intruder who tries to push in as a mean tenant between God and man then he added that Spiritual Authority could only be wielded by a righteous man and that no obedience was due to the orders of a spiritual ruler whose life was not in consonance with the word of Christ not only the pope but a large number of the English prets might fairly be said to to come under this condemnation at a later date whitecliffe added to his attack on the governors of the church an attack on some of the characteristic doctrines of Rome notably on that of transubstantiation in the Eucharist this later development however had not begun in 1377 and it was only as preaching insubordination and resistance to Rome that whitecliffe was at this time arraigned and tried by Bishop Courtney of London the strong opponent of John of gaunt the Duke's only sympathy with whitecliffe came from the fact that they both desired to repress the overgrown power of the ecclesiastical authorities the one from political and personal motives the other on religious and theoretical grounds with white Cliff's spiritual fervor Lancaster had nothing in common but he resolved to support him because they own the same enemies and because there was always popularity to be gained by opposing Rome according ly when whitecliffe was brought before the bishop in St Paul's for trial February 1377 the Duke came in person and threatened Courtney in such stormy language that after an unseemly altercation the assembly broke up in disorder and whitecliffe went free a Mob Of The Bishop's friends and followers went next day and sacked John's Palace of the seavoy though much enraged he dared not proceed to more violent measures against Courtney and contented himself with making his father suspend for a Time some of the Privileges of the city of London thus the political Strife of the Court party and the Constitutional party had become complicated with the religious dispute between the reformers and the romaniz how much further matters would have gone had John of Gant retained his unlimited power and authority we cannot say for the aspect of Affairs was wholly changed a few months later by the death of the Old King Edward died on June 2nd 1377 at his Palace of Sheen when his last moments were near his servants stole all they could and fled the Shameless Alice peris is said to have stripped the very rings from his hands when she saw him fall into unconsciousness of all the numerous train that he had fed only one poor priest was present to minister the offices of the church as he drew his last breath this miserable deathbed was but the natural termination of a life spent in the pursuit of selfish pleasure and ambition such a king was bound to breed a race of heartless corders and thankless dependence end of chapter 6 chapter 7 of England and the Hundred Years War by Charles William Chadwick Omen this LibriVox recording is in the public domain main recording by Pamela nagami Richard II the years of the minority 1377 to 1388 the accession to the throne of the late King's grandson Richard II a bright promising lad of 11 put an end to the domination of John of Gant the Princess of Wales and the friends of her deceased husband who had brought up the young king had never never been Allied to Lancaster and had viewed his movements with suspicion he had no longer the power to use the Royal name for his own profit as he had done for the last few years facing the situation with more wisdom than might have been expected the Duke made no attempt to hold on to the helm but yielded with a good grace and entered into a formal reconciliation with Wickham and the other Chiefs of the Constitutional party Peter de la was released from prison the londoners were pardoned for their Riot of the preceding February and it was agreed that old Amity should be forgotten the governance of the realm was placed in the hands of a council in which both the parties were fairly represented the first parliament of the new Reign passed two important pieces of constitutional legislation one providing that during a minority the king's ministers should be chosen by the two houses the other was to the effect that all acts passed by parliament could be set aside only by the consent of parliament this second point was one which was not to be fully established for 300 years as late as the time of James II King still claimed to have a dispensing power which overrode the statute book though the danger of domestic troubles was for a time at an end the condition of politics was yet far from s satisfactory Charles I of France had refused to renew the truce which ran out in the summer of 1377 and the Hundred Years War had once more passed into an acute stage the campaigns which followed were neither so disastrous nor so decisive as those of 1373 through 75 but their results were on the whole unfavorable nothing of importance was lost the whole Inland had already fallen into the hands of the French and the grasp of the English on the coast towns was very firm but on the other hand nothing was regained and the expenses of the war were ruinous in 1380 an expedition under the king's youngest Uncle Thomas of Woodstock landed at Cal and cut its way through Pak D champag and the or Leon NOA to Britany it was a mere repetition of Lancaster's March in 1373 3 Once More the French avoided open battle and contented themselves with defending their wall towns and cutting off the foragers and stragglers of the invading host Earl Thomas reached van without any overwhelming disaster but with an army too much harassed and worn down to accomplish the delivery of Britany from the French John the 5th the faithful Ally of England since his accession in 1345 was at last driven to abandon the alliance and make peace with the Enemy he was recognized as duke by the French government in return for his submission and at last recovered the whole of his dominions 1380 the abortive expedition to Britany had been very costly and heavy taxation was necessary to pay the troops whose wages were 6 months in a rear accordingly the chancellor Simon of Sudbury Archbishop of Canterbury laid before the parliament of Northampton projects for the raising of a sum of £60,000 the method finally adopted for collecting it was a pole tax on the whole of the inhabitants of the realm above the age of 15 it was graduated upwards from one shilling paid by the poor to three pounds imposed on the richest individuals the imposition of this tax which pressed very very heavily on the laboring classes was the cause of the explosion of a discontent which had been brewing ever since the social troubles that had followed the black death and the statute of laborers The Peasant Revolt or what Tyler's Rebellion as it is sometimes called was not the result of the pole tax only that imposition though bitterly resented was but the occasion and not the cause of the rising just as the greased cartridges in 1857 were not the the cause of the Indian Mutiny the origins of the trouble were many and varied much in different places in London and the towns the discontent was largely political the people resented the disastrous results of the French War and the heavy taxation which resulted from it they laid the blame on the governing classes without much distinction of persons and parties save that John of gun was especially singled out as responsible for the present unhappy situation in the shes on the other hand the explosion was mainly the result of social causes and especially of the Grievances of villain we have had already occasion to remark that the statute of laborers had estranged the land owners from their peasants the attempt to enforce the ancient dues of compulsory labor from the surviv tenants had led to much bad blood everyone wished to hold his land at a moderate money rent and not to be compelled to give forced labor for his Lord's demean Farms wherever the owner of a manner insisted on carrying on the old system discontent was Rife in many parts the peasantry had entered into secret clubs and combinations to resist their masters and these societies seem to have had much to do with the organization of the rising but this grievance alone does not suffice to explain the Vault its outbreak was as violent in Kent where villain no longer existed as in any other Shire there was a bitter feeling abroad against the tyrannical Forest laws against the tolls and Market dues which raised the price of Provisions against the whole tribe of lawyers whose subtleties and legal fictions were thought to prevent the poor man from obtaining Justice in some parts too the rising was strongly anti-clerical it was very violent in places like St albin's and Barry St Edmunds where the tenants of the church had tried in vain to get from their abotts the charters and privileges which most other small towns enjoyed very important also although it has sometimes been exaggerated was the influence of w Cliff's denunciation of the clergy during the last 10 years his teaching had filtered down to the lower strata of society in a form which took the shape of socialism he had preached that obedience was not due to spiritual superiors of evil life and that it was expedient that the church should be deprived of the overr wealth which was corrupting her he had founded an order of poor priests who went about the country spreading his doctrines and in the mouths of his more fanatical disciples his teaching took an almost anarchical turn they denounced all obedience to unrighteous Governors lay or clerical and spoke as if poverty was the only virtue and riches the sole source of evil the most violent language of this kind was used by a Wandering priest named John Ball who was well known all over the southern shes he was not a Whitecliff fite since he had been in trouble for his teaching long before white Cliff's name had been heard outside Oxford but his addresses pressed to their logical extreme all the ideas which underlay the new doctrine his famous text when Adam delved and Eve span who was then the gentleman was the Prelude to sermons urging that all men must be made equal and all property forcibly divided into equal shares for the most part however the men who joined in the Revolt were not bent on setting the whole world to rights but on getting rid each of his own special grievance in June of 1381 the rising broke out in in all the Eastern counties from Kent as far as Yorkshire with a simultaneity that shows that it must have been prepared beforehand whether the organization had been made by the secret societies of the laborers or by the traveling agitators is not certain though we know that John Ball had held a meeting in London just before the rising with some of the men who afterwards led the Revolt in norfol and suffk the first Riot broke out it is said at Dartford in Kent where as certain tiller slew one of the collectors of the ptox who had grossly insulted his daughter whatever may be the truth of this story it is certain that all Kent Rose in arms as if on a given signal and a few days afterwards Essex and the Eastern counties followed suit June 1381 in all the regions over which the rising spread there was a certain amount of Bloodshed and a good deal of plunder the persons who were SL L were mainly justices of the peace lawyers and officials connected with the levying of the pole tax but local quarrels and grievances led to other murders such as those of the prior of Barry St Edmonds and the governor of Norwich Castle everywhere the manners of unpopular landlords were sacked and manner roles and records of Taxation sought out and burnt in Cambridge where the town and the university had an old quarrel the mob burst open the University Church and burnt all the charters and muniments crying away with the learning of Clarks away with it after a few days of uproar the bands of the home counties began to move on London those of Kent under a leader who called himself watt Tyler encamped on black Heath while the men of Hartford sheer took post at hibury and those of Essex at hamstad they all agreed in swearing that they were true to the king and only desired to deliver him from his evil counselors the gates of London were shut against them by the mayor wallworth but there was no other attempt to resist them for the government had been taken by surprise and had no time to collect troops but on June 12th the Mob of the city Rose and opened the gates to the insurgents they spread themselves through the streets not indulging in general plunder but sacking and burning the seavoy the Palace of John of Gant and slaying many foreign merchants and certain persons against whom they had special grievances the young king who had retired into the tower tried to parley with them the demands which they sent him were not so wild as might have been expected they asked for a free pardon for the abolition of all Village for the removal of many taxes and tolls and for a permission to all who had formerly held land on a servile tenure to become instead free tenants of their farms at the rent of four P an acre it was evident that the majority had not been LED Away by the teaching of John Ball and his fellows seeing that their terms were not altogether impossible the young king who displayed admirable courage and coolness though he was but 15 years of age B them meet him at myand then a great open space and there discussed their grievances the majority came to the colloquy but while it was going on wat Tyler and John ball with about 400 rius followers burst into the tower and there murdered the Archbishop Simon of Sudbury who was specially hated as the framer of the pole tax and with him Sir Robert hailes the treasurer and John leg the chief collector of the tax while this Dreadful scene was going on the young king had been addressing the main body of the insurgents at my end after some discussion he agreed to grant their demands and 30 Clarks were set at once to work to draw out Charters granting free Pardons and the abolition of villenage for the inhabitants of each town or hundred that evening the majority of the insurgents went quietly home having as they thought obtained their desires June 13th but Tyler and many thousands of the rougher and Wilder sort remained behind some of them were Fanatics and others were senting more plunder and bloodshed next day the king summoned tyer and his followers to meet him at Smithfield trusting to make terms with them as he had with their fellows but the Insurgent Chief had gone too far to feel himself safe and was set on keeping up the tumult lest he should be called to justice for the murders of Sudbury and hails he bore himself insolently at the meeting and began wrangling and insulting the king's attendants this so excited William wwor the mayor that he drew a Cutlass from under his gown and hewed down the Rebel from his horse thereupon one of the king's Squires ran in and struck him dead as he lay Richard and his whole party was within an ace of perishing for the multitude seeing their leader fall bent their bows and were about to let fly but the courageous young king rode forward among them crying that he himself would now be their leader and would see that Justice was done to them they hesitated a moment and then one by his noble bearing followed him to Islington where in the open field he distributed to them Charters like those which had been given to their fellows on the previous day they then dispersed and he was able to ride back to his mother swearing that he had this day won back his Heritage and the realm of England which was lost June 14th when the insurgents had gone home the knights and Nobles flocked into London with thousands of armed retainers the landholding classes were very wow that their villains had been freed without their consent and said that Richard had given away what was not his own in spite of the free pardon that had been granted many scores of the leaders of the rebels in Kent in the home counties were seized and hung among them were John Ball and Jack straw who had been captain of the Essex men in Norfolk the warlike Bishop dispenser took arms and put down the Eastern insurgents slaying their leader the priest John raw a few months later Parliament met and voted that all the charters issued by the king were null and void because they had been issued without the sanction of the two houses Richard made some attempt to keep his promise to the insurgents and tried to get his abolition of villenage confirmed but the voice of Lords and Commons was given unanimously against him and he had to yield the only Grace that he obtained was that in January 1382 on the occasion of his marriage to Anne of bohemia the young daughter of the emperor Charles IV a general amnesty was published for the surviving insurgents but all their prominent leaders had already perished nevertheless it must not be forgotten that in one way the rising had not been without successful results the landowning classes had been so thoroughly frightened by the outbreak that they dealt more cautiously with the peasants for the future for the next century villenage was silently disappearing as the Lords allowed their men to commute labor for money rents and to become free tenants the Grievances of Village were never again the cause of insurrection for they gradually disappeared in The Next Century we shall see that the great popular rising of Jack Cade which in many features recalls that of watt Tyler was political and not social in its aims and ends Richard was now in his 16th year and had shown that he possessed both courage ready wit and A Heart That Could sympathize with his subjects but he was not allowed to assume control of the administration all through his Reign he was the victim of a tribe of ambitious uncles and cousins who were determined to keep him in the background as much as possible John of gun was now not the only source of trouble his youngest brother Thomas of Woodstock who had become Duke of Gloucester was a far worth man domineering arrogant selfish and given to all manner of intrigues he and Lancaster fell out and their quarrels allowed the king some Liberty but in 1385 the Elder Duke disappeared for some time from the scene by his marriage with constant of Castile he had a claim on the inheritance of Pedro the cruel and in the hope of making himself a ruler in Spain he went overseas with all the followers he could raise he Allied himself with his son-in-law the king of Portugal and at first conquered many towns in the northern provinces of Castile but his army wasted away the castilians hated the memory of Don Pedro too much to submit to his Heir and after a long struggles 1385 to 89 John was to return to England disappointed and grown old before his time during his absence Richard had reached the age of 20 and at last assumed the governance of his realm his chosen ministers were Michael De Lao and Robert deir Earl of Oxford the former was a man of a new family his father had been a wealthy Merchant of Hull but he himself took to war in politics Rose to the front by his ability and was now in his middle age made Chancellor and afterwards Earl of suffk deir on the other hand held one of the oldest earldoms in England he was a young man of the same age as the king and had become his favorite companion to raise him to a position Above the Rest of the Barons Richard made him Marquis of Dublin and Duke of Ireland after these two friends the king placed most confidence in his half brothers the sons of the Princess of Wales by her first marriage Thomas Holland Earl of Kent and John Holland who was afterwards made Earl of Huntington dill laul and D could not in any sense be called favorites in the objectionable sense of the term the experience of one and the ancient nobility of the other made them persons whom it was quite fitting that the king should choose as his ministers it may be that Michael was somewhat AB vicious and Robert somewhat Vain and laded but we have only their enemies word for the accusation their rule was certainly no worse than that of their predecessors the plot which was made against them must accordingly be attributed to jealousy and ambition and not to patriotism Thomas of Gloucester who was set on holding the chief power under his nephew the king grew into a conspiracy certain discontented Nobles the chief of whom were the ears of arendel Warick and Nottingham and the young Henry of balling Brook the eldest son of the Duke of Lancaster in the parliament of 1386 glester and his friends made a great stir against the ministers accusing them of embezzling the king's money mismanaging the war with France which still dragged on its weary length and refusing to carry on the government according to the advice of the council and the two houses deapo was impeached and declared guilty although the accusations were wholly unfair but the moment that the parliament had dispersed the king gave him his pardon and restored him to the office of Chancellor this action of Richard's gave the conspirators the opportunity which they desired at gloucester's call they took arms and called out their retainers marching on London they found no one to oppose them and seize the town they called themselves the Lord's appellant because they appealed or accused of treason suffk Oxford and certain other of the king's advisers Richard baade his followers take arms and de gathered some levies in the western counties but at radcot bridge on the upper t near lechlade he was beset by a far greater host which the Insurgent Barons had sent out against him after a brief Skirmish the King's Men surrendered Dee escaping with difficulty by swimming his horse across the river he fled to France where he was soon afterwards joined by deap pole who had also succeeded in getting away in safety from England but the greater part of Richard's minor partisans did not leave the realm they had not foreseen the merciless character of the Lord's appellant glester had determined to break the spirit of the king and to deal so harshly with his instruments that no man should ever dare to serve him again in February 1388 met the merciless Parliament which was wholly dominated by the Lords app pellant who had taken care to pack the commons with their adherence gler behaved to his nephew with studied insolence he brought out the documents which related to the deposition of Edward II read them to the king before the assembly and openly told him that there were good reasons for treating him as his great grandfather had been treated but for once he should be spared and placed for the future in the hands of strong and wise counselors the parliament then proceeded to impeach the king's ministers suffk and Oxford had crossed the Seas so had Neville Archbishop of York who also was cited as an offender but there were at hand trilian the Chief Justice Sir Simon Burley an old friend of the black prince who had been the king's tutor in his Boyhood and Nicholas bramber an ex- mayor of London all prominent Servants of the unfortunate Richard after the mere mockery of a trial tresilian and bramber were hung and Burly beheaded three Knights of the king's household named beum burners and Salsbury were subsequently arrested tried and executed the parliament then voted liberal supplies for the expenses of government from which the Lords appellants were not ashamed to take 20,000 to compensate them for the trouble and expense to which they had been put finally the King was made to renew his coronation oath before the Archbishop of Canterbury in St Paul's Cathedral and after assisting at the ceremony the merciless Parliament dispersed June 1388 end of chapter 7 chapter 8 of England and the Hundred Years War by Charles William Chadwick Omen this LibriVox recording is in the public domain recording by Pamela nagami Richard II 1388 to 1399 the Lord's appellant were very much deceived if they imag that their couet was likely to reduce King Richard to a permanent state of dependence he was no coward or trifler and devoted the whole of the rest of his life to an elaborate scheme of Vengeance against the men who had slain his friends and inflicted such deep humiliation on himself warned of the strength of gloucester's party by the events of 1388 he was resolved to spend years if necessary in preparing for a new struggle the next time time he would have Armed Force at his back and would not be caught unprepared the government of the Lord's appellant lasted no more than a year it was not more fortunate or capable than that which it had superseded for Gloster soon showed that he was an intriguer and not a Statesman nor was he even consistent in his policy though he had always been an advocate a vigorous war with France he now concluded a truce with the young Charles I 6th France was at the time in a condition not unlike that of England for Charles was a victim of a tribe of domineering uncles who dealt with him in much the same way that Lancaster and gler dealt with Richard II he made no objection to the long needed suspension of hostilities in May 1389 King Richard found it possible to take the governance of the realm out of the hands of the Lord's appellants he surprised those who were present at the council by suddenly asking his uncle gler what was his own age the Duke answered that he was now in his 23rd year to this Richard replied that since he had so long passed his majority he was old enough to govern his own realm and that he would choose his own ministers he formally thanked the Lord's appellant for their services but said that he had no further need for them if he had dared to recall his exiled friends or to take open measures of Vengeance against his oppressors there is no doubt that Civil War would have broken out but Richard was now playing a very cautious game he made his grandfather's old advisors his ministers the good Bishop William of Wickham became Chancellor and brandingham of exiter Treasurer just as they had been in 1371 the Lord's appellants were not driven out of the council but allowed to keep their seats though they no longer dominated the whole body nothing was done to which any exception could be taken so the malcontents had no opportunity of appealing to the country or rising in Revolt the next eight years were by far the most fortunate and prosperous part of King Richard's reign he governed well and wisely and won golden opinions on every side the most statesmanlike of all his measures was the conclusion of a permanent agreement with France the two countries were to be at peace for 30 years England retaining Cala in the district round Bordeaux and Bayon but surrendering her claim to her other lost possessions the treaty was made firm by Richard's marriage to Isabella the 8-year-old daughter of the French King he had lately lost his first wife Anne of bohemia and so was free to wet again but it was unwise to choose so young a bride for he had no children by his first marriage and an heir to the throne was much needed as long as Richard was childless his uncles and cousins were tempted to dream of ultimately succeeding to his crown as a temporary measure of expediency he recognized as air apparent Roger Earl of March the grandson of Lionel of Clarence the Second Son of Ed Edward III this action was very ill received by John of Gant and his son the Earl of Darby who had secret hopes of asserting the preference of the male to the female line of succession among the most prominent features of the middle years of Richard's reign was the growing importance of the W cites or lards as they were now beginning to be called the reaction which followed the peasant Revolt had only checked their rise for a short time the king himself neither identified himself with them nor took any of the measures against them which the clergy endeavored to press on him his wife Anne had been distinctly favorable to them and her foreign servants and followers took back to their native land the teachings of whitecliffe which were destined to inspire John hus the great Bohemian reformer some of the baronage among whom the Earl of Salsbury was the most prominent person and a great number of the wealthier members of the citizen class were open supporters of the wifite movement the trend of the times was in their favor for the papacy was daily growing more scandalous the great schism had now begun and instead of one bad Pope at aino there were now two rival pontiffs one at aino and one at Rome who had excommunicated each other and were endeavoring to stir up the states of Europe to a general religious War why Cliff's teaching had now become doctrinal as well as political in his old age he had preached against the invocation of saints the superstitious Adoration of relics and images the spiritual efficacy of pilgrimages and the real presence in the Eucharist he persisted in his old denunciation of the over great wealth of the clergy and the influence of his followers in the parliament is shown by their repeated attempts to introduce legislation confiscating man itic lands and church endowments for the benefit of the state Richard refused to countenance these proposals but he was equally firm in refusing to allow the Bishops to persecute the lards whitecliffe has died in peace 1384 after having accomplished his great work of translating the Bible into the English tongue his followers in the Next Generation were destined to fall upon more troubless times among other characterist istic instances of King Richard's wise and careful governance of his realm may be mentioned his Endeavor to introduce better order into Ireland which his predecessors had systematically neglected for 200 years the English influence in the sister Island had been greatly reduced during the reign of Edward II by the repeated invasions of Edward Bruce who had drawn many of the Native seps into Rebellion the Scots were finally driven out out but the Havoc they had wrought was never repaired and the area over which the king's Authority reached was permanently decreased many of the tribal Chiefs of the north fell off from their allegiance and what was more dangerous still many of the anglo-norman settlers drifted into close alliance with the rebels adopting Celtic names and became more Irish than the Irish themselves the assimilation of the new and old inhabitants would have been advantageous both for themselves and for England if it had tended toward peace and Union but its sole effect was to increase tribal Civil War and to diminish the central power of the government even the pale the district round Dublin which had been most thickly colonized by the English began to fall into disorder it was in vain that in 1366 King Edward III caused the statute of Kilkenny to be passed forbidding the anglo-irish from mixing and marrying with the natives and adopting Celtic Customs such laws can never be kept when the tendency of the times is against them and the statute raised much bad blood between the settlers and the natives without having any permanent effect in restoring the power of the king in 1394 Richard went over to Ireland to try the effect of his personal Pres presence in setting the land in order none of his predecessors since King John had visited it his arrival was not without effect many of the Native Chiefs did him homage and the Lords of the pale were for a space more obedient he held a parliament of the whole land at dubland and then went home after appointing his hea parent Roger Earl of March Lord Deputy of the island by 1396 Richard felt himself firmly established on the throne and he knew that he was liked and trusted by the majority of the nation he felt that it would be no longer possible for a few powerful Barons to rise against him and crush him as they had in 1388 accordingly he thought that it was time for him to take in hand the punishment of his old enemies the Lord's appellant he had even gone to the Pains of dividing them by showing special favor to Thomas thas mry the Earl of Nottingham and Henry Earl of Darby the two who had been least implicated in the rising of 1388 his real Amity was directed against gler arendel and Warick it must be confessed that the Duke gave his nephew every opportunity and provocation that he could have desired he had intrigued against the French peace insulted the King on his marriage refused to keep the government of Ireland when it was given to him and caused his partisans in Parliament to make many perverse and unnecessary complaints against Richard's household and ministers it was even said that he was plotting a second Rebellion with the object of again seizing supreme power in 1397 Richard suddenly struck down his enemies war was arrested at a banquet while gler was captured by the king himself he rode out to plash and Essex the Duke's favorite residents and personally laid hands on him telling him that he should have the same Mercy that he had shown to berley 9 years before arendel surrendered on promise of a fair trial before his peers Richard then summoned a parliament and announced his intention of trying his three prisoners for treason copying their own procedure in 1388 he had them appealed by a number of the Barons of his own party among the new Lords of pent were included the king's half Brothers Kent and Huntington MRE Earl of Nottingham Edmund of York Earl of Rutland and scrup a Kinsman of the exiled suffk arendel and War were duly impeached before their peers both for their old doings and for the new treason laid to their charge both were condemned and arendel was beheaded but War's sentence was committed commuted to imprisonment for life in the aisle of man gler did not appear for trial but his death was reported to the parliament it seems clear that Richard had him secretly put to Death In His prison at Cala because he was determined not to spare him yet shrank from the idea of ordering the public execution of such a near Kinsman thus the king had secured his long deferred Vengeance for the evildoings of the merciless Parliament he could not however recall his exiled friends suffk and Oxford since both of them had died some time back during the 3 years which he had yet to Reign he did not delegate his authority to any Ministers of such power and influence as the lapole and deir but carried out a purely personal government using as his instruments men of no importance who could be trusted to obey his orders the chief of them was suffix Kinsman group whom he made Earl of wilts and bushy the Speaker of the House of Commons in this last period of his Reign Richard displayed distinctly unconstitutional Tendencies which gradually estranged from him the popular sympathy which he had gained by his good governance between 1389 and 1396 his conduct was not yet exactly tyrannical but it made men fear that he might someday grow more violent he raised some benevolences or forced loans from rich men whom he wished to keep in his dependence he made persons whom he distrusted signed blank Charters which he could fill up at his pleasure with whatever terms he liked if they should happen to displease him unlike the Kings his predecessors he always kept a large guard of archers about him but most ominous of all was an innovation which he invented in the year 1398 he got Parliament to delegate its powers to a standing committee of 10 peers two Bishops and six commoners whose consent to a statute or a tax was to have the same power as the Parliamentary vote of approval this was a most dangerous device for it was obviously easy for the king to dominate such a small body and to ring from it the approval of things which the two houses themselves would not have been likely to Grant all these moves on Richard's part were menaces to the Constitution but he cannot be accused of having actually misgoverned the realm he refrained from oppression because he hoped to keep the people on his side but he had already made enemies of a large part of the baronage and of the clergy whom he had refused to Aid in their attempts to attack the lards the mass of the nation was not yet estranged from him but they were seriously disturbed by his recent autocratic Tendencies the actual cause of Richard's fall came from a matter of personal Revenge the two surviving Lords of pellant mry and Henry of Lancaster fell into a quarrel and accused each other of treason Richard allowed them to challenge each other to a Judicial duel but when they appeared to fight it out in the lists at Coventry he suddenly declared that the combat should not proceed but that both should be banished the realm mry for Life Henry of Lancaster for 10 years this was regarded as a very hard decision for one of the two must surely have been in the right but there can be little doubt that Richard was merely carrying out to its final stage his Vengeance for the acts of 1388 he had now punished all the murderers of Burley and trilian 1398 a year later later John of Gant died at the age of 61 the vast Lancaster Estates and the ducal title fell to his banished son but Richard very unjustly refused to hand them over to him or to allow him to draw their revenues taking them into his own possession as Henry had not been declared a traitor or properly convicted of any misdoing there was obviously no justification for this action it turned the exile into an open enemy who was determined to risk anything to get revenge in 1399 his opportunity came the Earl of March the Lord Deputy of Ireland was slain in the Skirmish by Irish Rebels and Richard hastily crossed to Ireland to restore order he was engaged in a difficult campaign against the wicko mountains when he received the surprising news that Henry of Lancaster had landed at ra ravenspur in Yorkshire having in his company Archbishop arendel the brother of the deceased Lord appellant and a few other Exiles he proclaimed that he had only come to sue for his duche of Lancaster and had no treasonable designs July 1399 he was soon joined by thousands of the retainers of his father and by many of the northern Barons the charge of the realm had been given during the king's absence to Edmund Duke of York Richard's last surviving Uncle a simple and unenterprising old man he gathered an army together but foolishly disbanded it when Lancaster vowed that he had no treasonable design and only wished to appeal to a free Parliament and to drive away evil counselors from the King thus Henry found himself unopposed and had the realm at his feet for Richard was detained at Dublin by persistent easterly winds which prevented him from crossing the Irish Channel he soon showed the bent of his plans by seizing and executing without Fair trial the king's Chief ministers scou Earl of Wilshire bushy and green this roused some of Richard's faithful adherence to take arms and the Earl of Salsbury got together an Army in Wales to meet his master on his expected arrival but by an unlucky chance the weather still kept Richard stormbound in Ireland and he only reached Milford Haven two days after salsbury's host had disbanded itself and gone home in despair the king had arrived almost alone trusting to find his friends in arms and ready to Aid him he was soon surrounded by a force which Lancaster had sent against him under Percy Earl of Northumberland on a false Assurance sworn by the Earl that nothing treasonable was designed against his crown or person Richard surrendered himself he was at once hurried up to London where a parliament had been hastily called together having now got his cousin Into His Hands Henry showed that he aimed not at changing the ministry but at seizing the throne the parliament voted that Richard had forfeited his crown by breaking his coronation oath and governing unrighteously on 33 separate charges some of them absurd and all couched in exaggerated language he was declared to have deserved deposition Richard much broken in spirit yielded and consented to Advocate whereupon his cousin stepped forward and laid claim to the crown the deposed Monarch was sent to ponr Castle which he was never to leave alive end of chapter 8 chapter n of England and the Hundred Years War by Charles William Chadwick Oman this LibriVox recording is in the public domain recording by Pamela nagami Henry IV 1399 to 1413 down to the moment of his accession Henry of Lancaster had been aided by an extraordinary series of Chances The King's absence in Ireland the feeble action of the Duke of York the prolonged easterly winds which had kept Richard from returning to England the supineness shown by his chief partisans were circumstances on which Henry could not have counted when he landed at ravenspur if events had fallen out otherwise it is probable that he would not have dared to seize the throne but would have stopped short at his original program of claiming Justice for himself but the moment that the usurpation was complete the inherent weakness of the new ruler's position began to display itself he was in reality no more than the king of a party his only true supporters were the baronial faction which had been attached to the Lord's appellant and the churchmen headed by Archbishop arendel who would resolve to make him their instrument for the suppression of the White Cliff fites the support of other partisans could only be bought by encouraging a lively sense of favors to come meanwhile the opposed King had also a powerful baronial faction adhering to him though for the moment it seemed crushed and there were many parts of the country where his name was far more popular than that of Henry the house of Lancaster's claim to the crown was in truth dependent solely on the election by parliament in strict hereditary right the deposition of Richard II made the young Earl of March son of the Roger of March who fell in Ireland in 13 98 heir to the throne by setting him aside Henry committed himself to the theory of popular election to the crown and he had therefore always to remember that Parliament might unmake him even as it had made him hence the most prominent characteristic of his domestic policy was a determination to keep the two houses in good temper at all costs a line of conduct which often led him into a subservience to them which earlier Kings would have regarded as degrading besides managing Parliament Henry had to keep together the baronial party which supported him and to Grant the churchmen all that they asked Henry had been popular as Earl of Darby but as king he found that he had no enthusiastic support from the nation his enemies were many and active his true friends were few his interested supporters were greedy but lukewarm while the bulk of the people car cared little for him it is a great proof of his ability that for 14 years he kept tight hold on the crown and finally passed it on to his son his character was well suited for the task that he had undertaken though unscrupulous he was plausible softspoken and courteous a proud or hot-tempered man would have ruined himself in a few years but Henry was pliable cautious and wary though in needful he could strike hard blows without hesitation he had only been two months on the throne when the first of the many rebellions with which he was to be plagued broke out the leaders were as might have been expected the partisans of the late King Richard's half brother John Holland Earl of Huntington his nephew Thomas Holland Earl of Kent montigue Earl of Salsbury the best known of the lards and Lord dispenser under cover of a tournament they collected several thousand armed men and suddenly marched on Windsor intending to catch the King unawares Henry escaped by a lucky chance he had only half an hour to spare and fled to London where he summoned the citizens to Arms the Hollands and their friends finding that their first blow had failed resolved to disperse in order to gather together greater forces the main body began to retire Westward where they hoped to raise the numerous nous friends of King Richard in Wales and the Welsh border this delay was their ruin the king pursued them in haste and they broke up without a pitched battle Kent and Salsbury were slain in a skirmish at siren sester Huntington was caught and beheaded in Essex dispenser at Bristol both without any form of trial four minor chiefs were hung drawn and quartered in London December 1399 to January 1400 this illc concerted Rebellion caused the death of the unfortunate King Richard to prevent further rebellion in his behalf Henry secretly caused him to be starved to death in ponr Castle his Agony is said to have endured 15 days January February 1400 his corpse was publicly exposed but the mystery of his death caused some people to believe that the body shown was not his and for many years after rumors of his survival were current an impostor who took his name lived all through Henry's Reign at the court of Scotland the main event of note in the following year marks Henry's anxiety to secure his unsteady Throne by giving guarantees for his Fidelity to the church party at the suggestion of Archbishop arendel he induced the parliament to pass the infamous statute de heretico comendo which condemned to death by fire convicted Heretics no delay was made in commencing the persecution of the lards and before a month was out they counted their first martyr William satre a chaplain of London who was burnt after steadfastly refusing to recant February 1401 the persecution went on intermittently for the next 20 years though they obliged the King by countenancing his assault on the followers of white the parliament took a very high tone with him in dealing with legislation and finance they endeavored to bind him down in the matter of expenses and repeatedly propounded to him a theory that no grants of money ought to be made to the crown till all grievances petitioned against by the houses had been previously redressed Henry temporized and procrastinated putting off the evil day when he might be obliged to make this great constitutional concession Richard's death had some temporary effect in checking rebellions for it was difficult to make the child Edmund of March the head of a political cause and to gather a party around his name moreover the long uncertainty as to the deposed King's death kept men from recognizing his Heir the next troubles which Henry had to face were connected not with plots to change the English succession but with a national rebellion in Wales for a full Century the principality had been undisturbed by civil strife and Welsh troops had served Edward III Faithfully in all his Wars but now a chief of Genius arose in the person of awne glendor or glendow as the English called him who descended from the old Kings of Gwyneth his countrymen had never been partisans of Lancaster and readily took arms when he called on them to resist the usurper Owen made some pretense of rising in Richard's behalf but he was really fighting for his own hand to restore Welsh Independence the rebellion was National and had nothing to do with English dynastic matters when Glend descended from his Hills it was not to Rally partisans in England but to ravage the Border shires up to the gates of Shrewsbury and Worcester Henry sent Army after Army against the rebels but he could never catch them they retired to the mountains till the invader's food was exhausted and turned to harass his rear guard when he departed when a larger Expedition led by the king himself marched into Wales it met with such bad weather and suffered so severely that the English complained that Owen was a wizard and had leaked himself with the powers of the air to discomfort his foes 1402 the Welsh Rebellion gave no signs of spreading into England but other troubles arose to touch Henry more nearly the French King armed to avenge his dethroned son-in-law and threatened Invasion Norman privateers ravaged many of the towns of the southern coast at the same time the Scots under the Earl of Douglas crossed the border and advanced into England they suffered however a crushing defeat on hamon hill at the hands of Henry Percy son of the Earl of Northumberland and Douglas himself self was taken prisoner with many other Scottish Nobles 14th of September 1402 this Victory however was destined to have dangerous consequences the king demanded that the captives should be made over to him since he was desirous of filling his depleted ex cheer with their ransoms but the Peres had looked upon the money as their own and bitterly resented the order Northumberland had been Henry's Chief supporter at his usurp and thought that nothing could be denied him when peremptorily summoned to obey he resolved to refuse and hastily planned a rebellion for his power was so great in the north that he could put into the field a whole Army of his own retainers the rising was a mere Outburst of feudal Anarchy the Percy Clan being its sole authors Northumberland placed his gallant and Reckless son Henry whom people called hot spur at the head of his followers he released his prisoner Douglas who consented to espouse his cause and he called in his brother Thomas Percy Earl of Worcester to his Aid they sent Messengers to Owen glendow to secure his cooperation and resolved to use the name of the little Earl of March to cover their Rebellion they then formally defied Henry and declared him a perjured usurper and the murderer of his rightful King the Elder Percy remained in Yorkshire to watched the Loyalists of the north who had taken arms under Rafe Neville Earl of West Morland the head of a family which had been the local Rivals of the Peres his son Henry Hotspur and the ears of Worcester and Douglas marched into chesher a district always devoted to Richard II and then pressed toward Shrewsbury where Glend da and the Welsh were to join them the king however marching hastily from London with a small army threw himself between the Peres and Wales and brought them to action at Hatley field 2 miles outside Shrewsbury after a fierce battle Hotspur was slain and his uncle and Douglas captured Worcester was immediately beheaded he deserved no better fate as he had been one of those who betrayed Richard II and had received more than 30,000 in gifts from the usurper against toi now had taken arms July 21st 1403 North umland hearing that his son was dead made abject professions of repentance and was admitted to Mercy on promising to surrender his numerous castles in the north less than two years of comparative quiet followed the king's victory at Shrewsbury Owen glendow still held his own in Wales but England was for a short time at peace but in 1405 troubles began again Henry's suspicions were first roused by an attempt to steal away the young Earl of March from Windsor where he was kept in safe custody soon after Insurrection again broke out in the north it was directed by two leaders who had hereditary grudges against the King Richard scr Archbishop of York was the brother of that scr Earl of wils who had been beheaded at Bristol in 1399 Thomas mry the Earl Marshall was the son of the mry whom Henry had accused of treason in 1398 and had faced in the lists of covantry his father had died in Exile and the son became a bitter enemy of the House of Lancaster scrup and mry raised a force at York and seeing rebellion of foot the old Earl of Northumberland took arms in his own County to Aid them all three leaders agreed to recognize Edmund of March as king but Henry's Fortune was still strong his left tenant the Earl of West Morland broke the back of the Rising by capturing the Archbishop and the Earl Marshall by a villainous piece of ill Faith having invited them to meet him under a flag of truce he seized them when they came to the conference and put them in Chains Henry hurried northward and on his arrival at York ordered both the prisoners to be executed they received no trial before their peers but were hurridly condemned by an extemporized court and beheaded an hour after June 8th for 1405 the death of scr caused widespread horror and dismay no Archbishop safe Becket had ever been put to death for withstanding his king and the northern clergy and people saluted scr as a martyr Henry fell grievously ill a few days after and was never a hail man for the rest of his life the epileptic fits and leprosy which gradually grew upon him were universally regarded as heav Vengeance for the archbishop's cruel end but meanwhile the cause of rebellion did not Prosper the king's artillery blew northumberland's castles to pieces and a few discharges and the old Earl had to flee into Scotland where he lurked for 3 years waiting for another opportunity for a blow at his enemy before it came other troubles had been vexing Henry his parliaments with which he dared not quarrel had learned to treat him with scant respect in 1406 they demanded and obtained from him the right to audit his accounts and made him cut down the expenses of his household in 1407 he had to acknowledge that the commons had the sole right of initiating money grants he was also made to promise to do nothing without first taking advice of his councel the weakness of his position is best understood by the fact that he allowed Parliament to deal with him in such a manner no King whose Throne was safe would have tolerated such interference in 1407 the Foreign Relations of the crown slightly improved the danger of invasion from France had hitherto been very real twice great French fleets had been collected in the channel and though they had not landed an Army on the coast of Kent yet flying squadrons had sacked many South Country ports and once a considerable body of troops had been sent to Aid Glend da in Wales the sole of the opposition to Henry IV had been Louie Duke of oron the king's brother but in November 1407 he was murdered by the secret contrivance of his cousin the Duke of burgundy his death was the cause of the outbreak of a long Civil War Between the party of nobles who had previously followed him and the partisans of burgundy engrossed in domestic quarrels the French had no longer any desire to dream of invading England their King Charles I 6 was utterly unable to keep his realm together for he had become subject to fits of melancholy Madness which came on him every summer and often disabled him for four and five months at a time soon instead of France dreaming of molesting England it was England which thought of interfering in faction ridden France in in 1408 Henry was able to suppress the last of the many insurrections which were raised against him the old Earl of Northumberland Lord bardolph and the Welsh Bishop of Banger slipped over the border and raised a considerable Force but they were met and crushed at the Battle of Brandon Moore by Sir Thomas rby Sheriff of Yorkshire both the rebel peers were slain this was the last trouble which came from the direction of Scotland where King Henry had of late secured much influence over the government for King Robert's son and Heir Prince James was taken at Sea as he was crossing to France 1406 and the Duke of Albany who ruled in his brother's behalf and wished to keep all the power for himself made a secret agreement by which Henry undertook to hold the Young Prince a captive while the Duke covenanted in return not to molest England thus Henry was freed from the danger on on the side both of France and Scotland and had only the Welsh Rebellion left on his hands but he had fallen into wretched health and from 1409 to 1411 was almost a chronic invalid most of the functions of government were discharged for him by his promising young son Henry of Monmouth the Prince of Wales when only a boy he had fought at his father's side at Shrewsbury and in Wales now as a young man of 20 he was already a hardworking Statesman and Soldier there seems little room in his busy life for those curious Tales of youthful ride and debauchery and consorting with disreputable companions which popular tradition associated with his name and which The Genius of Shakespeare has immortalized the greater part of Henry's time was spent in hard soldiering in Wales where he was constantly chasing Glend DA's Rebel bands at first with small success but as the years rolled on the final Triumph of the great Guerilla Chief grew less and less probable since the House of Lancaster was growing more firmly established in England at last his followers began to Desert him and Prince Henry was able to pacify the greater part of the country though down to the day of his death Glend daer was never wholly subdued it is in the end of the period of Henry of monmouth's administration in behalf of his father September through December 1411 that the first English interference in France since the Peace of 1393 Falls the quarrel of The Burgundian and orleanist factions being at its height Henry intervened in behalf of the former and sent a small Force across the channel which helped the burgundians to a victory over their enemies at sanlu but this policy was not destined to be carried any further in 1412 the king's Health grew better for a short time and he was able to take a greater share in public business he seems to have somewhat resented the way in which his eldest son had monopolized the conduct of Affairs during his illness and showed his displeasure by relegating the Prince of Wales to the background for a time and employing his second son Thomas Duke of Clarence as his chief deputy and agent in consequence of this change in policy peace was made with the faction of oron or the AR aranak as they were called from their new leader Bernard count of armanac who had taken the murdered Duke's place shortly after King Henry was once more smitten down with his old disease and died rather Suddenly at Westminster on March 20th 1413 after having been reconciled to his eldest son after all his troubles and dangers he expired just as his throne seemed at last secure but though he had rooted in his dynasty his Reign had not been a success he left the country poorer than he had found it civil war had been incessant the central government was weak the baronage and nation divided and the blood feuds had been started that were to last for three generations and to end in the terrible Wars of the Roses end of chapter n | Priceless Audiobooks |

E07qVCnis4g | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E07qVCnis4g | Central bank rate HIKE- Watch market reactions LIVE | [Music] [Applause] thank you welcome Pat and happy Wednesday and thanks for joining me in the middle of the week to uh watch the news conference with the Federal Reserve watch the Federal Reserve in action live it's like it's almost it's almost like a sporting event you know yeah yeah they said we should lay down some odds here but I uh what I'm really glad you joined me about is I wanna um I want to you to talk about this article that we saw here on mortgage News Daily and how the fed's actions on today's like today how do they affect mortgages yeah I mean they really they it has a counter effect that the average person thinks you know right they're raising rates but like that article said the bond market the mortgage-backed security Market the treasury market trade every second of the trading day and the FEDS only meet eight times a year so once they start sending out messages that you know we're probably going to raise you know rates three quarters a point when you start getting consensus from the Federal Reserve people they can price that in going back they start pricing that in six seven weeks you know like you saw the rates obviously last 40 45 days have gone up they've already priced that in so once that event happens they're moving on to the next event six to seven months on the road yeah I like what they say here because the market can show up to the party so far in advance of the FED itself it's not uncommon to see mortgage rates move in the opposite direction of the FED on the day the FED makes its move so that's what will be interesting to track right now we're sitting at a national average of six four seven and what I thought we'd do is uh we're gonna watch chairman Powell here and listen to him and while he's talking um we're gonna um was it only 75 we haven't I haven't heard yet have you yeah 75 was 75 okay yep okay good and I think I think that I think that um you know I was saying you know obviously it tells me my crystal ball I said maybe you know they were talking about maybe a point 100 basis points but you know if you think you know more I thought about 100 basis points probably would have sent it probably does two two things it would have sent the message that hey we're you know we're in deeper trouble than we thought and we're scared and um and also you know that's it's almost biting off too much of the cake at one time you know 75 I think looking back at it was probably a more realistic number that way they can kind of keep that number and you know uh 75 next the next move but I think a point 100 basis points would have sent a really negative signal the more I think about it well what what did you see this morning I put your chart up here what yeah I mean basically the this right here it was down like minus three bases points a five-year coupon the mortgage-backed security five percent coupon I mean the tenure was at 3.569 here as we see right here we saw a high of 3 3.61 uh at 11 o'clock it went from like minus three minus four to like minus 40 or minus 39 so it kind of reacted uh you know uh the gates negative negatively but then it's starting to come back is that what I'm seeing here then yeah correct yep okay yep so I mean um we saw yesterday go back to my chart this H right here this is yesterday's Trading you know we saw these are bond prices obviously bonds inverse relationship rates go up so the rates this is obviously bond prices this is what Barry Habib calls a bullish Hammer this was actually a positive um you know it's a technical term bullish Hammer but it's basically kind of a a trend in the charts saying that okay we hit you know you saw how it kind of blew off here hit the line and came back up that's kind of a hammer so that was kind of a bullish sign saying hey maybe we've hit the bottom or the top in rates for the time being so it was uh a good Trading uh day yesterday technically in the in the 10-year Treasury well um and everything and some other things that I've read um here's the interesting thing is we're looking at what his conversation is going to be about today fed's tough task history shows inflation takes an average of 10 years to return to 2 percent so they've had their target at two percent it's possible that he might announce that they're going to tighten until we get to four percent um so I it here's some of the things I'm going to look for and what he's what he's going to talk about in he's mentioned the word pain before and I know that the Market's waiting to hear a little more details into what he calls pain um you know he he's saying unemployment's going to go up do you think he'll spit out a number that says how far it'll go up and uh and now and will we be in a recession how long will it last because this task that they have of pulling back uh this inflation rate and all of this QE that's been going on for 10 years is pretty big uh nut to swallow there it's a you know soft Landing I don't I don't know yeah I you know what is you know what technically what you know you said you need to Define some things what it what kind of pain are we going to see you know they keep it very general obviously for a reason but uh yeah what is a soft Landing you know I just tough to decide you know tough to Define that yeah I think um the interesting thing that I read too is talking about you know what does it mean when he raises this is the overnight rate that he's raising and how does it affect interest rates in general and uh um so one of the things that I read was not only is it going to affect your pocketbook and uh but it's going to affect our national debt because we're we're our debt is 130 125 percent of our gross domestic product now and if in our the interest on that debt has been nothing for the past few years you know we've been at almost a zero rate you get that up to like four four and a half now your interest payment on the debt is going to be more than National Defense and Medicaid that's kind of scary so it is I mean it's uh that's why they've got to get the stuff under control they've got it I mean I think you know like I said this all this spending that they're doing they've got to rein that in I mean it's just it's ridiculous they got ran that in I think if they Reign that in I think if they reign in um they open up the policies in terms of energy I mean that's just my personal opinion I think you know that would have a go a long long way but like we talked about the last couple of uh telecasts you know it seems like the Federal Reserve and this Administration are kind of they're not working together at all it'd be interesting to hear if he addresses that he has made comments before when he's spoken but he hasn't ever mentioned that in an official press conference yeah yeah is he going to reach the point that says hey folks I can't do this alone [Laughter] yeah so and I mean and then and the other thing the important thing is too Pat and you and I just talked about it before we came online this is not going to go away in a year that's why you have to I think you have to split up like I talk about the last several months you have to split things up in the segments you know periods I think just this is not transitory like we talked about a year and a half ago this is not transitory no and that you've uh I I'm seeing uh improvements in Lumber uh improvements in oil uh but not seeing any relief in food question here Pat you'd said previously they're selling mortgage-backed securities correct do you see them selling more and what will that do to the housing market well not they're not sell I mean they basically according to the Federal Reserve uh schedule they're not buying any for the next month but they're just basically letting you know just through natural um roll off you know if they have prepays or just letting it roll off I mean um it's going to have some effect I don't know what obviously I'm just I don't you know it's a bigger question for me to than me to answer but um I think what we have in front of us is just is a lot bigger than just the mortgage just the segment of mortgage-backed security Securities out there you know I think they can handle that I mean like you said I mean the markets kind of take care of themselves and we have refinances that's why back in 20 and 21 we saw hundreds of billions of dollars them purchasing it because there was a lot hundreds of billions and you know we did we had a four trillion dollar uh mortgage Market you know last year now they're talking like I'm just throwing I'm doing the exact numbers but it's gone from 4 trillion down to say 2 trillion it's cut in half and the refunds are down 90 about 90 percent so the supply is just not there so that the markets in themselves are helping that if that makes sense yeah so they're not they're not dumping them selling them back to anybody they're just go ahead and expiring on their own they're not buying anymore yeah now treasuries are uh that's kind of a different animal they the way that's worked from what I've read is that the FED will basically they add a bunch of digits to the to the treasury and then give it to the banks in the name of Reserves and then when the banks have all these Reserves they lower their rates and then get the money into the circulation in the in the economy now they're doing the opposite of that they're pulling it back and they're lowering the bank's reserves and so that's what's raising interest rates mm-hmm and uh and that's they're walking this fine line of okay we got to pull this back when will we know if we've pulled back far enough and now how bad is this gonna is this gonna hurt and in when chairman volcker back in the 70s and 80s did this rather aggressively the economy was actually believe it or not in better shape our debt was 30 percent of GDP compared to now where it's 125 of GDP so while he inflicted a lot of pain he didn't inflict a lot of costs to the federal government for interest rate debt repayment and so but it still took unemployment up to 10 percent so let's let's hope we he doesn't have to clamp down that hard and what he said last month was um the reason that uh volcker had to clamp down so hard is because he didn't do it soon enough and that's interesting because there's a lot of chatter that maybe Powell should have started this last year [Music] he wouldn't have to be as as aggressive so money's a funny thing it uh just moves around and all we can do is watch so so he's it's it's a it's amazing that's a being economics I mean we're studying economics it's amazing the flow of money you know the supply and demand and really the psychology of money you know is really fascinating to me um but uh actually watch watch the waving hand guy that poor guy I pick on him too much you know there is a there you know there's a speaking of people just on YouTube um somebody said a question this morning why or um you know your real estate agents let an Open Door live in your head so much and um how come you're all talking about it so much on YouTube well they're a big part of our business and we so we're what talking about it for a couple reasons one we can't believe the pickle they got themselves into and number two we do a lot of transactions with them selling their inventory and in that light talking about eye buyers I'm hearing and I haven't been able to get validation but I'm just hearing it from real estate agents that offer pad canceled everything this week or last week they just if you were under contract with them they they got a hold of you and said for canceling no more I heard that I saw that off somebody posted the loan officer said he didn't give that the name of the company but he said that uh he heard it you know because it's not you know it's the New York Times walk a fine line in terms of saying the name of the company but he said that they are rescinding contracts that's not something I don't know if I could trust a company like that yeah yeah they did it this is the second time they've done it to us well they did that remember they did that they started doing that in covid yeah they did you know saw they uh pulled back real quickly and covet in I mean if you're just an individual by you know buyer or seller is that a partner whether it's a small company or just an individual person is that something you want to partner with or do business with yeah if it's getting dicey I mean that you know it was very enticing because they were paying some pretty good money an Open Door is losing money on 74 percent of their Arizona Holdings yeah yeah well you can see the listing 47 in California so they went yeah I don't know how that's a that's not a winning model in my book that's for darn sure you know I mean um yeah I'll talk about what's coming up but I don't see it yet so talk talking about Paula it's going to be interesting to see I mean um you know how how long do you keep doing this as far as raising rates you know I know they've got a Target but at what point do they say what's gonna you know say okay we've done our job what I wonder what economic what their economics are look behind that after they're done yeah and I think that's going to be one of his main points today you know because everybody is you know and then in these news conferences I don't think it's a q a is it no I think you know I don't think so no he pretty much comes out and says what he's going to say but I'll tell you one thing I can imagine he probably didn't get any sleep last night can you imagine like oh Jesus he probably tossed and turned all night we should do this Pat we should get a stage and put a bunch of Arizona Flags behind us and then stand up there and tell everybody what's going on in real estate we should aren't you why don't you work on that for us oh my god well can I I'll get the podium okay all right and then we'll just get friends who are probably gonna we'll get a bunch of friends yeah we're gonna have to provide liquor so yeah here we go folks foreign affected anything yet no so so this is kind of like what's that one um good afternoon show that does the movies okay colleagues and I are strongly committed to Bringing inflation back down to our two percent goal we have both the tools we need and the resolve that it will take to restore price stability on behalf of American families and businesses price stability is the responsibility of the Federal Reserve and serves as the Bedrock of our economy without price stability the economy does not work for anyone in particular without price stability we will not achieve a sustained period of strong labor market conditions that benefit all he's teeing up the bad news today the fomc raised its policy interest rate by three quarters of a percentage point and we anticipate that ongoing increases will be appropriate we are moving our policy stance purposefully to a level that will be sufficiently restrictive to return inflation to two percent we were continuing the process of significantly reducing the size of our balance sheet and we'll have more to say about today's monetary policy actions after briefly reviewing economic developments the US economy has slowed from the historically high growth rates of 2021 which reflected the reopening of the economy following the pandemic recession recent indicators point to modest growth of spending and production growth in consumer spending has slowed from last year's rapid Pace in part reflecting lower real disposable income and Tighter Financial conditions activity in the housing sector sector has weakened significantly in large part reflecting higher mortgage rates you think yeah I don't care interest rates and slower output growth also appear to be weighing on business fixed investment while weaker economic growth abroad is restraining exports as shown in our summary of economic projections since June fomc participants have marked down their projections for economic activity with the median projection for real GDP growth standing at just 0.2 percent this year and 1.2 percent next year well below the median estimate of the longer run normal growth rate despite the slowdown in growth the labor market has remained extremely tight with the unemployment rate near a 50-year low job vacancies near historical highs and wage growth elevated job gains have been robust with employee employment Rising by an average of 378 000 jobs per month over the last three months the labor market continues to be out of balance with demand for workers substantially exceeding the supply of available workers the labor force participation rate showed a welcome uptick in August but has little changed since the beginning of the year fomc participants expect supply and demand conditions in the labor market to come into better balance over time easing the upward pressure on wages and prices the median projection in the SCP for the unemployment rate Rises to 4.4 percent at the end of next year a half percentage Point higher than in the June projections over the next three years the median unemployment rate runs above the median estimate of its longer run normal level that's a lower a little lower than I thought did come in volition remains well above our two percent longer run goal over the 12 months ending in July total pce Prices rose 6.3 percent excluding the volatile food and energy categories core pce prices Rose 4.6 percent in August the 12-month change in consumer in the Consumer Price Index was 8.3 percent and the change in the core CPI was 6.3 percent price pressures remain evident across a broad range of goods and services although gasoline prices have turned down in recent months they remain well above year earlier levels in part reflecting Russia's war against Ukraine which has boosted prices for energy and food and has created additional upward pressure on inflation the median projection in the SCP for total pce inflation is 5.4 this year and Falls to 2.8 percent next year 2.3 percent in 2024 and 2 in 2025. participants continue to see risks to inflation as weighted to the upside despite elevated inflation longer term inflation expectations appear to remain well anchored as reflected in a broad range of surveys of households businesses and forecasters as well as measures from financial markets but that is not grounds for complacency the longer the current bound of bout of high inflation continues the greater the chance that expectations of higher inflation will become entrenched the fed's monetary policy actions are Guided by our mandate to promote maximum employment and stable prices for the American people my colleagues and I are acutely aware that high inflation imposes significant hardship as it erodes purchasing power especially for those least able to meet the higher costs of Essentials like food housing and transportation we are highly attentive to the risks that high inflation poses to both sides of our mandate and we are strongly committed to returning inflation to our two percent objective at today's meeting the committee raised the target range for the federal funds rate by three quarters of a percentage Point bringing the target range to three to three and a quarter percent and we are continuing the process of significantly reducing the size of our balance sheet which plays an important role in firming The Stance of monetary policy over coming months we will be looking for compelling evidence that inflation is moving down consistent with inflation returning to two percent we anticipate that ongoing increases in the target range for the federal funds rate will be appropriate the pace of those increases will continue to depend on the incoming data and the evolving outlook for the economy with today's action we have raised interest rates by three percentage points this year at some point as The Stance of monetary policy tightens further it will become appropriate to slow the pace of increases while we assess how our cumulative policy adjustments are affecting the economy and inflation we will continue to make our decisions meeting by meeting and communicate our thinking as clearly as possible restoring Christ stability will likely require maintaining a restrictive policy stance for some time the historical record cautions strongly mean yeah as shown in the SCP the median projection for the appropriate level of the federal funds rate is 4.4 percent at the end of this year one percentage Point higher than projected in June the median projection Rises to 4.6 percent at the end of next year and declines 2.9 percent by the end of 2025. still above the median estimate of its longer run value of course these projections do not represent a committee decision or plan and no one knows with any certainty where the economy will be a year or more from now we are taking forceful and Rapid steps to moderate demand so that it comes into better alignment with Supply our overarching focus is using our tools to bring inflation back down to our two percent goal and to keep longer term inflation expectations well anchored reducing inflation is likely to require a sustained period of below Trend growth and there will very likely be some softening of labor market conditions restoring price stability is essential to step to set the stage for achieving maximum employment and stable prices over the longer run we will keep at it until we're confident the job is done I haven't heard the word pain yet to conclude we understand that our actions affect communities families and businesses across the country everything we do is in service to our public mission we at the FED will do everything we can to achieve our maximum employment and price stability goals thank you and I look forward to your questions hi chair pal thank you for taking your questions Gina Smiley from The New York Times I wonder if you could give us a little detail around how you'll know when to slow down these rate increases and how you'll eventually know when to stop so I will answer your I will answer your question directly but I want to start here today by saying that my main message has not changed at all since Jackson Hole um the fomc is strongly resolved to bring inflation down to two percent and we will keep at it until the job is done so um the way we're thinking about this is um the overarching focus of the committee is getting inflation back down to two percent uh to accomplish that we think we'll need to do two things in particular uh to achieve a period of growth below Trend and also some softening in labor market conditions to foster a better balance between demand and Supply in the labor market so on the first uh committee's forecasts and those of most outside forecasters do show growth running below its longer run potential this year and next year on the second though so far there's only modest evidence that the labor market is cooling off job openings are down a bit uh as you know quits are off their all-time highs there's some signs that some wage measures may be flattening out but not moving up payroll gains have moderated but not much and in light of the high inflation we're seeing we think we'll need to and in light of what I just said that we'll need to bring our our funds rate to a restrictive level and to keep it there for some time so um what will we be looking at I guess is your question so we'll be looking at a few things first we'll want to see growth continuing to run below Trend we'll want to see movements in the labor market showing a return to a better balance between supply and demand and ultimately we'll want to see clear evidence that inflation is moving back down to two percent so that's what we'll be looking for um in terms of of reducing rates I think we'd want to be very confident that inflation is moving back down uh to two to two percent before we would consider that he's trying to avoid pay increases that's what he means by softening the labor Mr chairman Steve Eastman cutting people out can you talk about how you factor in uh the variable lags on inflation and the extent to which um the outlook for rates should be seen as linear in the sense that you keep raising rates or can you envision a time when there's a pause to uh kind of look at what has been wrought in the economy from the rate increases thank you sure so good question um of course monetary policy does does famously work with long and variable lags uh the way I think of it is our policy decisions affect financial conditions immediately in fact Financial conditions have usually been affected well before we actually announce our decisions then changes in financial conditions begin to affect uh act economic activity fairly quickly within a few months but it's likely to take some time uh to see the full full effects of changing Financial conditions on inflation so we are we are very much mindful for that and that's why I noted in my in my opening remarks that at some point as The Stance of policy tightens further it will become appropriate to slow the pace of rate hikes while we assess how our cumulative policy adjustments are affecting the economy and inflation so that's how we think about that your second question sorry was sometimes you can see pausing is it linear that you keep raising rates or is there oh I'm sorry I should know better than to not talk with my phone um uh I know better than to answer your second question I got a little humor loosen up the crowd pause that you could Envision where you kind of figure out uh what what has happened to the economy and give uh time to catch up in the real economy the rate increase time to catch up with the real economy yes when you're all protesting in the street very hard to yeah say with the precise we'll pause certainty yeah as I mentioned what we think we need to do and should do is to move our policy rate to a restrictive level that's restrictive enough to bring inflation down to two percent where we have confidence of that and what you see in the SCP numbers is people's views as of as of today as of this meeting as to the kind of levels that will be appropriate now those those will those will evolve over time and I think we'll we'll um we'll just have to to see how that goes I I there is a possibility certainly that we would go to go to a certain level that we we're confident in and and stay there for a Time um but we're not at that level clearly today we're you know we're just uh we've just moved I think probably into the very the very lowest level of what might be restrictive and and certainly in my view in the view of the committee there's uh there's a ways to go lowest level of might be restrictive that's interesting hi Jeff Howell Rachel Siegel from Washington Post thank you for taking our questions the projections show the unemployment rate rising to 4.4 percent next year and historically that kind of rising unemployment rate would typically bring a recession with it should we interpret that to mean no soft landing and is that kind of Rise necessary to get inflation down right so um so you're right in in the in the SCP there's a what I would characterize as a relatively modest increase in the unemployment rate from a historical perspective given the expected to decline in inflation now why is that so really it is that is um what we generally expect because we see the current situation as um outside of historical experience in a number of ways and I'll mention a couple of those first and you know these but first job openings are incredibly High relative to the number of people looking for work uh it's plausible I'll say that job openings could come down significantly and they need to without as much of an increase in unemployment as has happened in earlier historical episodes so that's one thing in addition in this cycle longer run inflation expectations are have generally been fairly well anchored uh and I've as I've said there's no no basis for complacency there but to the extent that uh continues to be the case that should make it easier to restore price stability and I guess the third thing I would point to that's different this time is that part of this inflation is caused by this series of Supply shocks that we've had beginning with the pandemic and railing with really with the reopening of the economy and more recently Amplified and attitude by Russia's invasion of Ukraine have all contributed to the sharp increase in inflation so these are these are the kinds of events that are not really seen in in Prior business cycles and in principle if those things start to get better and we do see some evidence of the beginnings of that it's not much more than that but it's it's good to see that for example commodity prices look like they may have peaked for now supply chain disruptions are beginning to resolve those developments if sustained could help ease the pressures on inflation what about spending let me just say how much these factors will turn out to really matter in in this in this sequence of events it remains to be seen we have always understood that restoring price stability while achieving a relatively modest decline a rather increase in unemployment and a soft Landing would be would be very challenging and and we don't know no one knows whether this process will lead to a recession or if so how significant that recession would be that's going to depend on uh how quickly wage and price inflation inflation pressures come down whether expectations remain anchored uh and whether you know also do we get more labor Supply which would help as well in addition the chances of a soft lending Landing are likely to diminish to the extent that policy needs to be more restrictive or restrictive for longer nonetheless we're committed to getting inflation back down to two percent because we think that a failure to restore price stability would mean far greater pain later on so I think our vacancy is still at the top of your list in terms of understanding the labor market and how much room there is there yes vacancies are still almost two to one uh ratio to unemployed people that's a that and quits are are really very good ways to look at how tight the labor market is and how different it is from other Cycles where which where the generally the unemployment rate itself is the single best indicator we think those things have for a quite a time now really added value in terms of understanding where the labor market is well least he doesn't have to flip through his bunder like John Pierre to answer the question wait wait hold on a second let me get that I don't know uh you said not too long ago uh in describing the policy destination there's still a way to go but I I imagine you have to have some idea about how you're thinking about your destination whether it's a stopping point or a pausing point and so I was wondering if you could uh discuss how you are thinking about uh as the data come in where that destination is how it's moving up if inflation doesn't perform uh as you expect do you want to have a policy rate it's above the underlying inflation rate for example and do you have an estimate for where you think the underlying inflation rate might be in the economy right now well so this is about 15 and we we believe that we need to raise our policy stance overall to a level that is restrictive and by that I mean is is uh meaningfully put putting mean meaningful downward pressure on inflation that's what we that's what we need to see in in The Stance of policy we also know that there are long and variable lags particularly as they relate to inflation so it's a challenging assessment so what do you look at you look at broader Financial conditions as you know are you look you look at where rates are real and nominal in some cases you look at credit spreads you look at at Financial conditions indexes we also I would think and you see this in the is this something we talked about today in the meeting and talk about in all of our meetings and you see this I think in in the committee forecast you want to be at a place where real rates are positive across the entire yield curve and I I think that would be the case if you look at the the numbers that were that we're writing down and think about um uh you measure those against uh some sort of forward-looking assessment of inflation inflation expectations I think you would see at that time you'd see positive real rates across the which across the yield curve and that that is also an important consideration hurry up Jerry I got a call coming in [Music] hi uh Howard Schneider with Reuters thanks for uh the opportunity I just want to be clear on the on the steps you say it's meeting by meeting but it sure looks like we're going 75 50 25 um is 75 uh next month the Baseline so we we make one decision per meeting in the meeting decision we made today was to raise the federal funds rate by by 75. um you're right that a uh you know a the median for uh for the year-end suggests another 125 basis points and rate increases um but there's also there's a you know there's another fairly large group that saw 100 basis points addition to where we are today so that would be 25 basis points less so you know we're going to make that decision at the meeting we had we didn't make that decision today we didn't vote on that um I would say that you know we're committed to getting to a restrictive level of um uh for the federal funds rate and getting there pretty quickly so rates are going to be pretty volatile so just as a follow-up to that I'm learning about this sort of risk management considerations here given there's some discussion now of of overdoing it what's the incentive to continue oh look at that right now um progress on inflation seen in the CPR reports or is it a motivation to get as much done while the job market is still strong for them so what we've seen is um inflation has we've our experts said something they didn't like we would begin to see inflation come down largely because of of supply-side uh healing by now we would have thought that we've would have seen some of that we haven't we have seen some supply-side healing but inflation has not really come down if you look at at core pce inflation which is you know a good measure of where inflation is running now if you look at it on a 3 6 and 12 month trailing annualized basis you'll see that that inflation is at 4.8 percent 4.5 and 4.8 percent so that's those that's a pretty good summary of where we are with inflation well Pat I think we definitely got the gist of where he's headed um he he's he's now kind of repeating the same things because he's kind of getting questions saying the same thing and it and he keeps saying we're just gonna clamp down hard until we see results and we're gonna do it quickly um so um he his unemployment was an interesting take he was saying that a lot of the employment may just happen because the open jobs that aren't getting filled may just go away yeah well I want to know you know they keep talking about the 10.5 million job 10 10.5 million job openings right yeah I I would love to see some type I mean I know this is probably probably impossible I would like to know the quality of what kind of jobs those are yeah you know are they you know you know know if I mean obviously because there it does depend to me if you had 10.5 million job openings at say and not you know uh you know any every I I always say any job if you're working is a credible job whether you're a janitor or you're working at McDonald's or you're a CEO of a company it's a job is a job and you know I try not to you know to mean anything but are those 10.5 million jobs at um you know uh raking leaves at the county park or are they you know 10.5 million jobs at say McDonald Douglas or Lockheed Martin you know what kind of what kind of what other what's the quality of the job openings I would love to you know be interesting to see that um but like I said there's you know and that's what he's obviously relating to is that there's a lot of service jobs out there that are just you know are you know like I said a job is a job I don't mean to demean any type of Labor because like you said if you're working that's a hell of a lot more credible than sitting on your on your couch but um it it I think it does matter in the quality of the jobs yeah well we know there's a lot of airline pilots shortages out there that's for sure um yeah I mean and that's I mean those those guys make two hundred thousand dollars a year now that's a big that's a that's the type of what I'm talking about how many you know jobs out out there are but yeah and Bobby's talking again about you know what's going to be like when they finally unload mortgage-backed Securities and what we're saying is they're not unloading them they're just not buying anymore yeah yeah they're kind of letting that just take care of itself over time and I think you know there's a couple charts that I saw in here and they they projected numbers out to 2025. and so um he's not he wasn't putting anything up that says um and we expect things to be a lot better by the end of 2023. 2023 is going to be that adjustment period and they're saying well how do you know when you've clamped down hard enough and you can pause and he you know he he's just saying well we're going to look at everything I'll try and figure that out at the time after we look at all the all the data so I you know it's and he said too everything's he he said what 6 12 18 month trailing they always look at trailing numbers you know they're not you know they're not talking to um I know they are probably but I I was talking to my buddy who's in the wholesale business and he said you know he foresees some bad news coming out the next six to 12 months based on what he's seen on the wholesale people he goes people are clamping down uh business owners are clamping down you know their inventories are bloated they're pulling back and he goes you're not seeing that right now you're seeing the inflationary we're looking at the inflationary numbers now but my buddy's talking about six to 12 months down the road so yeah look I mean look at that yeah I'm glad you flipped back to my chart we're having a good day now uh the 10-year the 3.51 we saw a high of 361. so we're seeing this bounce off the um off the bottom and actually The Five-Year coupon is up six basis points which is a relatively decent calm day which it always is on fed day except for the stock market but uh yeah look at Tyler asked the question did they say when the next increase will be announced um they they meet in November they meet November November okay okay yeah I know I think it's uh I'm not what day exactly I think the third week but um so yeah look at the five-year treasury or the five percent coupons up 14 basis points which is a good day so just wanted to show you everybody's all the news has been built in already yeah that's I think that's one of the key things I want to I was hoping we could illustrate here so as to watch it live and see that as as we not that we're Geniuses but it's what the market has always been telling us is that you know this this fed is very transparent it used to be like any Allen Greenspan days um he wouldn't tell you what he's going to do oh God he would just stand in front of a Podium and next thing you know you go he did what this guy they here's what we're doing I don't never understood why they had to be so secretive yeah they're doing a lot the last couple years you're doing a lot better job of uh leaking you know which is kind of good actually obviously leaks some most loud leaks are not good but these type of leaking information so you don't throw the whole bucket of hot water on you on one day or cold water whatever um it does help the markets kind of you know digest like you had said it with mortgage News Daily how the treasury market and the mortgage-backed security Market um trades on a given day so we're going to see volatility in rates I mean I I think short term obviously they're going to firm up here but I mean that's why we see such volatile days now is that you're when you when I when I wake up and I see the market down you know like say this coupon the five percent coupon down 60 basis points I'm like the Market's reading into something already and there's because you'll see the market react like that and there's no news out there you know what is what is this telling us yeah that I mean it looks like the markets are obviously saying you know that my personal opinion or take on is that the uh the feds are doing the right thing um that the you know the market C rates going down you know in the in the um in the future you know eventually you know reading into you know we're talking like the next six seven eight months you know yeah it's interesting we we were up like 220 points and now we're up 187. so it didn't that's just a normal day in the stock market so this this uh didn't do too much it didn't jolt anybody out of their uh um you know their their seats but the other thing that I think is glaringly evidence you can no longer say or anticipate that the Federal Reserve is going to Pivot in November they're not I mean he's made that very clear that don't even expect he could care less about politics he didn't even bring up the level of spending that we have he's just not touching that but I think he's not touching that yet he's going to reach a point where he's going to cry uncle and go hey guys this this you got to pull back so I think uh I think I hope everybody found that interesting to watch and I appreciate everybody that tuned in uh it's the first time we did it just thought we'd do a little side-by-side commentary while things are going on and it was uh what was that movie remember that uh one show the the year 2020 or something like that where they had the little robots commenting on the movie was going on that's my son's favorite show yeah remember what the heck was that name though they did have little robots and you know the guys in the background what was uh damn what was that uh something theater um something theater yeah you have these little guys commenting like oh yeah really what really thanks for telling us that you know they'd have some smart smart alec comments that was pretty funny oh I love that yeah that's a great show I used to watch that all the time with my boys so but uh well thanks again Pat for taking time and uh I will see you on our Arizona news show tomorrow night at six o'clock sounds good buddy have a good day thanks bye-bye | Rickhelps AZ Real Estate | UCMTouPhJnoEuHKBWjlP1rmA | 2022-09-22 | Creative Commons

cuisines of other Eastern central and northeastern European countries facing predominantly basis on meat and various vegetables typical for the region Belarus cuisine has predominantly Slavic roots along with a ruthenian influence it is also linked with Lithuanian and Polish because of the long intermingling of these three peoples first within the Grand Duchy of Lithuania and later within the Polish Lithuanian Commonwealth though the Belarusian nobility like the Polish elite borrowed much from Italian German and French cuisines this influence hardly made itself felt in the diet of the peasant majority still some of the borrowed dishes spread throughout the society such as lays and key and above all various dishes made of grated potatoes typical for German cuisine History meals the political upheavals of the 20th century completely wiped out the former privileged classes and many traditional upper and middle class dishes went down the path of oblivion the very idea of a separate Belarusian cuisine was treated with suspicion only after World War two did it occur to the Communist authorities that the proclaimed a euro flourishing of national culture really rote trademark should also be evident in the cuisine the only source permitted for such a keulen Airy reconstruction was the heritage of the poorest peasants as of the 1880s a time when primitive rural lifestyle was

centuries of history had never existed only the sudden advent of independence in 1991 brought an opportunity to restore these lost traditions and a great deal still remains to be done here modern Belarusian cuisine is still heavily influenced by its recent Soviet past and many local restaurants feature Russian or Soviet dishes rather than true specialties of local cuisine some Belarussians may

boiled dumplings related to Russian pal meanie and Italian ravioli were produced in endless combinations of dough filling and sauce especially popular were called Johnny County Shevek in the late 19th century call Johnny began to be made with grated potato rather than with a flour based dough end unfortunately the former huge variety of fillings shrank considerably today call Johnny have to struggle vigorously to regain their former popularity now overtaken by the Russian pal meanie dumplings the main dairy products include a kind of fresh white cheese and sour cream which is widely used both in cooking and as a garnish only in the mid 19th century was fermented cheese borrowed from the Netherlands and Switzerland and the local version of edom was very popular for decades in the

Yr_gmPOMFqY | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yr_gmPOMFqY | When Bad Things Happen... | 3 Things About Job EP 1 #biblestudy | my bad things happen to you what's your first reaction when you feel frustrated and inside an angry or you're overwhelmed how do you react that's something I want to think about as you listen to this story there was this one in the Bible called you this man was described as one of the greatest men in his entire region in his lifetime it was reached to the points where he had seven thousand sheep 500 yolks of boxing 3 000 camels and 503 tacos the Bible said this man had a very great House a million thoughts of servants and people to help me with stuff he had their children I understand the fact that what we mostly talk about is the fact that this man was tested by God and he passed what most people myself included failed to notice is the fact that in a single day this man lost his entire properties every single one of them got stolen all these servants were killed only one servants each from both cases respectively escaped and they were the bearer of bad news to him as if that was not enough on the same day all these children died only one of his servants escaped to tell him values honestly speaking when I start thinking about what he must have been going through I said that for his life bad news was putting bad news in immediate successions pretty much happened at once as one was finishing another person was coming stealing all your camels and all your oxy which audience came to steal them and then they killed everybody but that was the only one that did not die I said I should come and tell you and that was exactly the same story that all of them could be with none of his children could actually survived because they died inside the collapsed building only God knows how many things could have been going on the jokes by another point in time only God knows how we would have been feeling I mean the importance got stolen of course there are you those days would have fought and you could have gotten them back or maybe he could have worked hard and recovered them but it hit his children if it were to have been anybody else you would expect that you would have gone bad at least you would have acted crazy a little bit or maybe they would have been angry they literally would have needed restraint at that point in time but what did you choose to do instead in the midst of all this sadness no cultures to worship God that's why I decided to ask what's your first reaction when bad things happen to you do you get angry at God do you choose to shot god and say yeah I don't think I forgot I have to fix this or you choose to move closer to God how do you behave do you start feeling crushed and depressed inside that overwhelmed I think it's something that a lot of words lead to like really consider we need to consider our ways ourselves do trials and troubles send you out from God's presence or do they draw you to him read the Bible I also notice the fact that even these friends were talking down they were saying different things so he he still chose to not cross God even when he felt frustrated and he was questioning God about why would you be fighting with me and instance was not from instance of um extreme anger towards God I noticed the things he was saying was more from a sense of helplessness than hunger so I'm training that question to you right now what's your first reaction when things look once you plan when God decides to test you and trials and temptations and tribulations come your way what's your reaction how do you react what's your attitude to God what's your attitude to your federal human being foreign [Music] | The Sought Out Podcast | UC2uVa8DGeQLygWNJpgxelQQ | 2023-06-28 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 681 | 3,576 |

__ ] get all up in your guts first vanilla something Pete cared chuckling deluxe even caramel sundaes is getting touched and scooped in my ice cream truck who tears it up hmm never that what was that off ray Kwanzaa album oh I didn't listen to that as much as I should have like I've been meaning to go back and check it out especially since we've been talking about it on and off okay here he here his life here is smooth pickup line and by the way have you seen the video it has a video yes free way to ice cream yeah ice cream hold on I'll pull it up in a thing and I'll mute it and I I want you just skip to the third verse of Cappadonna okay but yeah in the song he goes you're sexy persuasive top house and thighs oh yeah sexy persuasive Tatas like once again is if he's saying this to a woman your Tatas are so beautiful any man has ever said Tatas to a woman that was actually going to get laid that night yeah it's never been successful now oh my god Tatas dude this [ __ ] video there's so many people yeah oh my god it is like [ __ ] like blocked off a city street and just everybody's out there dude the wu-tang clan was a pretty big group man and then I guess and then and then your sexy persuasive Tatas and thighs catch my eyes like highs I want your bodily surprise-surprise give you so many things it's like you know like I could see in years like years down the line people analyzing like wu-tang clan lyrics and looking at like the things that the genius says and the things that like Ghostface Killah says and being like you know all man there's all these different idea ideas that you can go with these the way they worded is so interesting it's so cool like and you know and I quote you know like both hands plus T chillin with my man rusty lowdown blow off the burner kind of dusty you know it's like he's like bringing these disparate things together but his like just sounds silly like just just I want your bodily surprised like your your body surprised well at the very end I saw that you can get a Super Mario Brothers ice-cream thing oh wait did you see Kappa Donna's verse yeah like I wasn't listening to me too or else it wasn't did you see like he's like wearing a brace yeah delay No video looks like they want to be there it looks like it looks like he's just got out of that it's like I don't know about you but similar to the cannabis in a in a in a sling yeah fine to brag just doesn't look that good when he lets wounded no no it really doesn't he says Double Down sometime ice cream you got me falling out like a [ __ ] whoa and then I love you like I love my dick sighs oh it's just just that just that brazing anyway says it you got me falling out like a [ __ ] I love you like I love my dick sighs ooh baby I miss you mmm I'm not feeling this you know yeah masturbate in your clutches in your cook what orgasm in my mind-state masturbate in your clutches I want you for self like well so play me closely hmm I don't know what's that I want you for like I know what he means like I want you myself like money but just the phrasing you know it's just awkward like no one talks like that you know for so like well I like how you said that there's gonna be people analyzing it like there's gonna be like a like a college course and people are gonna have to like write write papers on songs and like how they interpret it and stuff like that I mean it's possible like there's some college courses about like the directorial works of Tarantino so it's like it's very possible that someone could like start a course just on whoo tang lyrics it's very possible but I think we're gonna have to exclude Cappadonna because this is just they're just kind of silly sometimes like yeah listen he says only a hard doesn't wanna be calling me cousin why only a hard doesn't want to be calling me cousin because I borrow [ __ ] a lot I don't return this like oh you might be saying only like there are very few girls that want to see me as not someone that they would have sex with ah oh okay that's really hard that's an odd thing to like that that's just not worded well like in why would you say that in the song where you're bragging about having sex anyway there are very few girls who don't want to have sex with me that's what he's saying but why would you say that like shouldn't you just be talking about how many girls want it instead of saying there are very few people who don't like me like I'd assure you the numbers are staggering and then uh call me if you want to get Doug like the pockets jism like a giant break wounds out of the sockets I like a giant I end and in doing so he breaks wounds out of the sockets dude that just sounds dangerous Jesus it's like well no wow I don't want that no that's not a thing that we know I don't think girls want to be treated like that uh that deleted scene from Hitchcock wait which one the one we're like that chick has sex with a Hitchcock and then he like ejaculates and like blows her through the roof I mean uh no he like pushes her aside and then like it's just like blasts through the trailer oh dude I completely forgot about that movie I was seriously thinking you meant like like that like I thought you did Scott yeah I thought you were talking about Hitchcock movies like Alfred Hitchcock oh yeah he's been known for a dizzying like a giant dude I don't know I knew something about the man that I didn't | Rap Critic | UCL3wRHKYmH4vJreoTw28jZQ | 2016-10-13 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 1,532 | 7,789 |

XSelseq5haw | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XSelseq5haw | Harshitha Shetty || Case Series ofAcute Testicular Ischaemia caused by incarcerated inguinal hernia | good morning myself Dr harshita Shakti I am a second year ideology resident from km Hospital Mumbai and I'll be presenting a case series of acute testicular ischemia caused by incarcerated in vinyl hernia patients presenting with acute total pain to the emergency department should be evaluated for potentially reversible causes of testicular ischemia the causes of acute scrutal pain include testicular torsion epididymitis corneous gangrene and scrotal Trauma testicular ischemia can also be caused by large incarcerated inguinal hernias due to compression of the testicular vasculature it is more commonly seen in infants and children due to the delicate vasculature and lack of collateral however rarely it can be seen in adults too following is a case series of three patients presenting to the emergency department with incarcerated inguinal hernias with significantly reduced ipsilateral testicular vascularity which was promptly restored to normal after reduction of the hernia the first case a 30 year old man came to the emergency department with acute onset left-sided total pain he was referred for an emergency ultrasound examination ultrasound shows the loop of the jejunum with Miss entry herniating through the Deep inguinal ring reaching up to the upper pole of the left testis the vascularity of the herniated bubble Roots was well maintained the vascularity of the leftist was significantly reduced however not resting of the spermatic cord was seen ultrasound shows a herniated Loop of the jejunum in the inguinal Canal reaching up to the upper pole of the tester with maintained vascularity of the wall

2O6tnoqw0xQ | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2O6tnoqw0xQ | Byzantium between East and West | in the Middle Ages there were three successors really of the Roman Empire there was the Frankish Empire in the West the Empire founded by Charlemagne there was the Caliphate which although it defined itself against christened 'm and the Romans nevertheless was very much built on the rubble of the empire in certain ways modeled on it and between those two great empires was a third and that Empire really had the greatest right of all to describe itself as Roman and that was the Empire that we call Byzantium after the name of the Greek city that was refounded by constantine the great the first Christian Roman Emperor as Constantinople and although we call the peoples of that Empire Byzantines they called themselves Romans albeit in Greek and there is a sense in which calling them Byzantines obscures the degree to which more than any other state in the Middle Ages Byzantium was the Roman Empire the Byzantines saw themselves not merely as guardians of the Roman passed but the inheritors of a glorious Christian future their empire they believed was destined to last for all time and yet there was a problem with that which was that it was evident that their power was not what it had once been and so the Byzantines found themselves engaged in a constant war of attrition against the super power to the east the Empire of the Caliphate and the way in which the Byzantines rationalized that was to cast themselves and the Saracens as kind of toying eyes twin poles the great rival empires the only equal that the Byzantines were really prepared to acknowledge to the west of course they did face another Empire which cast itself as Roman and that was the Empire of the Franks now the attitude of the Byzantines to that Empire was altogether more condescending than it was towards the Empire of the Saracens tensions between Byzantium and the Latin West existed on two levels first of all there was the religious dimension even though the Bishop of Rome the Pope had at one point been a subject of the Byzantine Empire the weakness of Byzantium the failure of its attempt keep hold of Italy meant that the Pope was obliged to look elsewhere for a patron and he turned to the king of the Franks and by doing that a further dimension of rivalry was introduced which was political and these rivalries both political and religious grew increasingly poisoned over the course of the centuries that followed in particular the coronation of Charlemagne as a rival emperor in AD 800 in Rome in the new Rome this was regarded with a mixture of disdain and horror in the centuries that followed that particular rivalry was focused on that between the Pope and the patriarch of Byzantium and in 1054 things came to a kind of head that is the date that is conventionally given to something called the Great Schism for sense that there being an irreparable rupture between the Latin and the Greek churches that's slightly to oversimplify it but there's no question that the increasingly uneasy relationship between the two churches that had existed throughout the early Middle Ages became altogether more poisonous in the high middle ages and then a further dimension that complicated relations and indeed poisoned it was that with the launching of the Crusades which were originally launched as a result of an appeal from the Byzantine Empire for Latin assistance against the Turks in the wake of the Crusades the eyes of Latin adventurers were opened up to the riches on offer within Constantinople and particularly its western provinces and with the military strength that they brought they also brought an increasingly loop in appetite for the splendor and the wealth that Byzantium offered and so the paradox is that when finally the great walls of Constantinople stretching almost 12 miles widely regarded as impregnable when they were finally breached they were not breached by a Muslim enemy they were breached by the Christian Knights of the Latin West when in 1204 Constantinople finally fell | British Library | UC-75_Zh-CLF7hN8dM4EGEGA | 2016-09-09 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 690 | 3,996 |

leased a gift of sale amalah eyah Santeria Pamela you everybody Angela Angela anything Allah does the Bible say about speaking in tongues don't before Bank is been sold in every religion not just in Christianity the phenomenon of speaking in tongues can be found in virtual religions speaking in tongues is also found in Hinduism you see speaking in tongues in Buddhism you see speaking in tongue in Nam on a server that is latter-day saint and originally they were not a church [Music] Bank is one of the most texts in defeatists of the gospel of power movement it is funded on all the three ways when I say the gospel of power when we were growing we were told there is power in the gospel but today the gospel of power it talks about miracles signs and wonders those days were told if you are appreciate decide to show that God is with you is when you are able to live a holy life but today it is based on miracle magic wonders sighs and there you see the speaking of towns in the early 1900 the problem is why we caption this event the untold truth is that things you hear from here you hardly hear them in churches today many of you are speaking this unintelligible ecstatic charismatic Pentecostal pounds and you don't even know its origin in 1900 speaking in tongues spread through the Pentecostal movement in 1960 the charismatic renewal movement was Beth in the 1980s that spread through the signs and wonders movement and all of these lovely issues I don't have enough time today and this will become very predominant in universities and colleges of education in polytechnics through four thematic areas one this charismatic unintelligible ectopic movement and speaking in tongues there with them a very girls use where church leaders rich and influential lay leaders and they tactic and signs and wonders when you go to church this was a chat was people sing song such is not seen as a boyfriend he seen us a god he's respected today you go to church and it is more or less like another noise center everywhere when you go to chat for four years you may destroy your eardrum what is going on this bizarre movement started and the key leaders who were behind these were as follows Paul jung haecheol the plaza of the world's largest church in South Korea men like John wimba the associate veniat Fellowship see a leader men such as see PETA Wagner the professor of Mises and Chesbrough for the philosophy a logical seminary in pasadena CA men such as the Kansas City prophets a group of evangelistic speakers believed also to be prophet and they include Mike Bickle John and a host of them men such as Paul Jackson Bob George not above Jones of the University by that name power K see that the most prominence of the Kansas City prophets and William Brega the following acknowledges program's influence on their ministries such as Jay Cole Allen TL Osborn Oral Roberts Kenneth Hagen and burn him yesterday I spoke about Ben Haim these individuals below said the man up here they loved an influence on their churches you see you can see a just wind up in your village and in the city then they come to the University you don't even know who the focus of the charismatic Pentecostal churches you are engaged in you don't even know the Ybarra but because they come with the vehicle of speaking in tongues and signs and wonders everybody is running after them I must say sometimes we run after them mindlessly [Music] because you're in the investing I have the guts to say something because you are thinkers so you will understand how the best spreaders beginning tongues movement tonight I'm going to take a couple of your time just bear with me so that we get this issue once and for all I didn't want to treat it I keep receiving messages from student as at a time I was seated here on my laptop right now I have two messages the student who insisted besought you promise about tongue release the message on the tongues today so I need to give it out the charismatic Pentecostal movement grew through various vehicles through the check drove and mission classes in Theological Seminary so this guy that the modern days beginning tongues they went to the schools where pastors which we and they engage the process in this ideology of speaking in tongues they use seminars on worship TV religious and radio broadcasts fish were the one in West Africa and in North Africa and in southern Africa and Annette in this free aid staff so the charismatic pastor started having a grunt groan Africa movement like the TB Josh was and all this your charismatic process they started growing and they went to school where this man in North America started the movement of this beginning town staff because we are used to receiving free aid these people charm out the continent of Africa with this kind of worship a so everybody started a church and they started as a result of this free movement when the custom charismatic movement and science and oneness today speaking in tongue has spread to almost every change many Pentecostals charismatics and those four sincerely believe that they are speaking in tongues is a gift from the Holy Spirit however some non-charismatic thing does don't he speak they agree some trick some of the silliest believers I disagree with group whereas an objective explanation to thus beginning towns will be while this trick of Britain's might be certain some cases one wonders why meaning well-meaning Proterra smutty Christians we want to fake this kind of experience unless there is something unique or impressive about it other critics of the Pentecostal charismatic but no speaking in tongues as either a symptom of neurotics sake or they have the same mental issue at disease and evidence of a psychological or emotional disturbance in the lives of tongues began they said they are going crazy I disagree while this may be true in some cases it must be noted that tongue speaking or singing in tongues or laughing in the spirit or resting in the spirit attract brilliant minds for all sly when you come to your university some of the first class students as we can in tongues dr. speak in tongues teachers speak in tongues businessmen speak in tongues professor speak in tongues individuals who are considered perfectly normal and accomplished in their field of specialty they also go to church and then they start then sundry and socket Amala everything's not again the question is a more accurate explanation is that was Sola liqu you know what I talked about that experience of speaking in tongues is a powerful religious phenomenon in which a real supernatural power is at work don't underestimate it speaking in tongues as we see today there is a spirit behind it but the most important question we will ask is is it a holy spirit or it is another spirit and this is what we will investigate tonight for the past ten minutes have just laid down the historical underpinning of this phenomenon interestingly if it is the true spirit of God because in John 16 verse 13 why does those who speak in tongue that same spirit dozen into all truth because about however when he the Spirit of Truth has come he will guide you not into some truth into all truth for he will not speak of his own authority but whatever he hears he will speak and he will tell you things to come so those who speak in an intelligible ecstatic gibberish the question is why is that the Holy Spirit has not touched them that Saturday is a Sabbath why is it that the Holy Spirit didn't tell them that when people die there is no ghost the Bible said they go to sleep and indeed when people die they lie in their graves why is it that did not treat them about healthful living ladies and gentlemen the sounds matter thank you why is the second coming of Jesus are this gross allelic patches saying that Jesus has come already in the spirit why is it that people don't believe in the baptism by immersion that question is we don't disagree if it is the spirit that is leading those who speak in tongue the question is if is it the Holy Spirit or it is another spirit if it is the Holy Spirit they must know everything that the Bible says because that is the promise of Jesus Pentecostals and charismatic belief that it is the Holy Spirit at work they offer three major explanation if I were to have time I will have asked you some of you who speak in tongue you want to be honest with me I will have asked you what are the three explanation given by the founders of speak in dogs their chances are you don't even know forgive my language tonight I'm going to be very blunt you are going to be offended but I told you last in John 6 verse 60 to 62 jesus said is my salmon offending you don't get offended be objective don't be emotional don't use your chest affiliation use your head somebody said 'man they're the facts explanation given by the charismatic when the Cousteau's speaking in tangos allelic sec we call it the soteriological explanation in the sociological explanation they believe that many charismatic when the Coastal's believe that speaking in tongues is a positive evidence of the acceptance by God and they are baptism by the holy spirit to such Bank is evidence that a person has been saved so they speak in tongue when I go to church Sandra Mata Pamela if they don't do it in the soteriological explanation it means hey we are not saved if you are safe you must speak in tongues the second explanation is what they call the existential explanation in the existential explanation some charismatic explains that speaking in tongues is a rapturous experience a feeling of spiritual high lifting them from their slavery of sin like alcohol like sense like dry it is unholy feelings and they believe it are shows that that they have gotten a spiritual experience or it draws them closer to God in other words the more you speak in tongues the evidence that you are Prasad to God that as sociological explanation is I speak in tongues because is an evidence that I am saying my brothers and sisters the last explanation given by the charismatic Pentecostal is what we call the eschatological explanation it deals with futuristic explanation some believe that speaking in tongues I mean the unintelligible ecstatic utterance they believe that it gives them a foretaste of heaven it makes them speak the language of heaven language used by the Holy Spirit to communicate with angels Punk's assures them that they will make it one day to heaven so when you go to check and everybody is lalalalala Sandra kamala appel Appa wait a minute you need to know why they are doing that reason number three we do it because that is the language I speak in heaven if you can't speak it you can't go to heaven we do it because according to the existential explanation is it is a holy feeling and it shows you that you are closer to God the third reason why do we do it we do it because it is an evidence that indeed God has saved us question is the claim of the Pentecostal charismatic regarding speaking in tongues biblical it's not now about what they say now I've told you where it started from those who are involved what they are understanding is now the question is those who are speaking in this plus allelic tough man is this what the Bible say in the next few minutes I invite you to can leave our heads as we pray that God Himself would teach you so that you will know his will but as bad our heads as we pray father please this is a very deep and a very long message helped me to put it together in the next few minutes that your people can understand your will I know there are truth searches I know there are honest young people they are in the best time of their lives to understand your will let's the enemy not take preeminence and just should be by our side and impress truth on our hearts for we ask in Jesus name Amen is speaking in tongue of tongues that has been popularized by the people to us in other words people can go and back in mind men when speaking in tongues come the nesting that follows is miracle signs and wonders but let's use the Bible to validate or investigate what it is like if today's speaking of tongue is it holy or unholy you recall I told you in 1 Thessalonians 5 verse 21 the Bible said prove all things and hold fast to that which is good and in 1st John 4 verse 1 it says test the spirits to see whether they are of God or not so speaking in tongues we need to find out what does the Bible say I'm going to use some five questions to ask this and I'll pull the pieces together question number one do we need the gift of tongues today in the church these are the Bible verses do we need the gift of tongues in the church today if we answer this then we can find out others as when you are baptized I believe that not will be destroyed or done there and these signs will follow them that believe in my name they shall cast out devils they will speak with new tongues the Bible said before Jesus come the Church of Christ will go and preach people be baptized and they will speak in tongues in romanced of the 12 verse 3 verse 8 it emphasized that as well but for a sake of time in fairness of the tour verse 4 to 11 verse 28 to Katie it reiterated that as well ladies and gentlemen the point must be made do we need a gift of tongues today restaurantes 12s 4:11 let me resolve there are various kinds of gifts but the same spirit there are various kinds of fellows and the same law there are various kinds of reckons by the same God who worketh all things in all but each one is given me the manifestation of the Spirit to profit all four to one is given through the spirit the word of wisdom and to another the word of knowledge according to the same spirit to another faith by the spirit and to another gift of healing by the same spirit to another great team of miracles to another prophecy to another discerning of spirits to another divers kinds of tongues and to another interpretation of tongues but all these record that one and the self self same spirit dividing to every man severally as weel and you go to verse 28 tonight and God have set some in the church first apostles I can be prophet their teachers after that miracles and the gift of healing me have government diversity of puns all apostles are our teachers are all miracle workers have all the gift of healing do all speak with tongues do all interpret in fact you go to read before Jesus come I saw another angel flying the hips from heaven having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth to every nation and kingdom and the people question that is that we need the gift of tongues today in the church somebody say I'm a man anybody who preach and teach that we don't need tongues in the church the person is a liar is a false prophet we need tongue question which tongues what's the number two must everyone speak in pounds I think one of the slide attempted to answer the let me just go a little back it says must everyone speak in tongue we read first one list of the 12 verse 4 to 11 he said God has given the various gift to people but let me focus on verse 28 to 30 for the sake of thyme and garlic have set some in the church first apostles then prophet tell teachers after that miracles then the gift of healing helps government diversity of tongues and verse 29 ask are all apostles are prophets are all teachers all working of miracles have all the gift of healing who are speak with tongues do all interpret No so the question is must gifts according to the grace yet somebody will receive the gift of kindness but in the gift of miracle somebody the gift of service somebody the gift of leadership the Bible says God has given to various persons different kinds of give everybody cannot so the Bible says if prophesy if you are giving professing then prophesy according to the profession of faith or service let us give ourself to service or voltages to his teaching all he will exalt to his exhorted he who gives let him do it liberally he who rules with diligence he wishes mercy with cheerfulness in other words the Bible is say in simple term speaking in tongues is not for everybody so when you go to a church and all of a sudden they say something everybody begin to worsen 3 I am Allah there is a problem man the Bible say everybody can speak in town I want - what's about it I'm sorry if you are heard but if you want to get angry get angry - the Bible the point is we have lost sugar-coated semijns you know when we go to just passes always tell us what we like so we are used to eat immediately want to say something we don't like then people are offended you are charging us what is judging you when you are doing the wrong thing you don't want to be told they are told and a process of made us believe even when the Bible speak if they tell us to do it before we want to do it that is wickedness they give the punks we need it in the church everyone according to the Bible cannot speak in tongues what's the number three who impacts the gift of tongues first conscience of the 12 verse 1 verse 4 and verse 6 now concerning spiritual gifts brothers I do not want it to be ignorant verse 4 now there are various kinds of gifts but the same spirit there are various kinds of service the same Lord there are various kind of wakened by the same God who worketh all in all question who gives spiritual gifts number one the same kind of give her the same spirit God the spirits there are various kind of service but the same Lord Jesus Christ there are various kind of working by the second God the Father the Godhead God the Father God the Son the Holy Spirit they give the gift of tongues somebody say on him and not be shocked and give you the gift of tongues are no general overseer continually gift of thunder it is a gift from God somebody say a name and their question number 4 - where does God give spiritual gifts to now we know that we need spiritual gifts everybody cannot speak in tongues it is a gift from God not from with the pastor's I cannot give you the gift of tongues I am nobody it is the only perogative of God the fourth question is who are totally flies to receive those gifts now speaking in tongues is a subset you understand that word I know you could get it the universal set is spiritual gifts the subset is speaking in tongues our focus of study so the one who gives spiritual gifts is the same person who give this beginning tongue because beginning tongue is just an outlet of the spiritual gifts who must receive the gift of tongues or spiritual gifts out of the two verse 38 repent and be baptized every one of you so if you're here you're not baptized tonight I'm gonna call you tomorrow I'll baptize you have three one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness for the remission of see and you shall receive the Holy Ghost when you repent when you are baptized when your sins are forgiven God will give you the Holy Spirit when you receive the Holy Spirit's then you receive the spiritual gift somebody say an amen to that wah if you've not repented if you have not been washed except in one case in a book of Acts at 11:00 there is an exception to that when people God wanted to work so hard now the Gentiles receive the Holy Ghost immediately before even they were baptized God says the normal routine is repent be baptized your sins are forgiven then God will give you the Holy Spirit these are those qualified to receive the spiritual gifts out of the five verse 32 did you notice that I'm quoting Bible text every single step to explain every single thing I'm not saying what I think I'm not saying what I feel I'm saying what the Bible say somebody say Ana meant to not wah when you go to church stop the story ha give us the Bible tax that we know that we are doing here at 5 Estella - we are his witnesses of these things and so also listen very carefully let me start again watch carefully is are you watching through here are you watching - here we are as witnesses of these things and the soul also is the Holy Spirit when God has given to those who obey Him shout I became endure that is week for me give God a run of applause I'm going to say something important so listen listen we're according to at 5:30 to qualify to receive the Hollister those would rewards idea that those rewards question can somebody be disobeying the pen commandment and receive gift of tongues yes or no idea that can somebody be disobeying God and receive the Holy Spirit yes or no can somebody be disobeying God and receive the gift of punga yes and all the Spirit is given to those who obey after 15 no John 14 verses 15 to 17 if you love me keep my Commandments and I will pray to the Father and He will give you another comforter that he may be with you forever the Spirit of Truth that is the Holy Spirit when the world cannot receive Basara in the world Joseph on attains the super God Sarah don't shoot for it does not see him neither know him you know him for he lives with you and will be in you the Holy Spirit is for those who keep the Ten Commandment the Holy Spirit is for those with the God's will and Jesus a when you have obtained my 10 commandment I Jesus I'm going to ask my father Papa 15 a do the Holy Spirit Papa give semi-double of spirits [Music] Dana whatever system the spirit sowdan say remember Jesus says the Holy Spirit which gives the tank comes to only those who keep the Ten Commandment question can somebody who disobey God's will receive the true spirits and speak the truth on YES on Hall this is what church is about pastors we are teachers of the world but because we have a lazy nation like Nigeria Alissa continents like Africa a bunch of maracas based preachers all across the world the pastor's also know that they don't need to study the Bible they just come I used to Bible verses and tell you your miracle is on the way I see somebody in Santeria bah bah bah bah bah bah then the world noise noise noise then you go sweating thinking of them the will of God you lie never [Music] forgive me it will be hard but God will give you a hut two tickets get to somebody and say don't get angry so please is the Word of God please tell somebody pray for depression Lord let the rain come a little sooner they say among question number five what is the purpose of Palms now we've looked at the sauce of tongs we know that tongue is needed we know the trunk must not be spoken by everybody we know those who qualify to receive hunger we know that is for those who obey now today the tunguska what did the Bible say God give the pencil not what your general over CSL who does the Bible say Act one must eat but you will receive power Dunamis when the Holy Spirit has come upon you and you will be witnesses to me in Jerusalem in all Judea and Samaria and to the uttermost parts of the earth when you receive the Holy Spirit you have to be a preacher God gave the Torah for preaching of his word not for prayer question why is it that in modern clothes allelic charismatic Pentecostal speaking in tongues we only use the don'ts for prayer for the sake of time let me rush efficients for miss 11 to 14 he gives some to be apostles and some prophets and some evangelists and some Shepherds and teachers for the perfecting of Saints to the work of seven to the building up of the body of Christ until we all obtained the unity of faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God so the full grown man to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ that we may no longer be children tossed back and forth and carried about with every wind of doctrine by the trickery of men in craftiness after the wills so the issue is that tongue is given to edify God's church it's not for just your personal aggrandizement is to let the Church of God grow so that we can evangelize what exactly is dogs what is tones is it an unintelligible utterance or gibberish or it's a supernatural ability to speak a foreign language you see two Bible verses are bring a confusion in Christendom and you are privileged to be here free of charge today while the Holy Spirit will help you understand this - confusion arises because of two passages in the Bible mark 16 verse 17 and then first contains after 14 verse 2 and verse 14 to be specific we are going to look at these verses I will explain them for some Bible guidelines I wrap it up then we bring it to a close and he said unto them go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creator he that believeth and is baptized shall be saved but he that believeth not shall be damned and these signs shall follow them that believe in my name shall they cast out Devils they shall speak with new tongues this is where the charismatic Pentecostals and many people begin to say the new tongue means strange don't ya now since the Bible was written the New Testament was written in the Greek that's the Greek adjective China eyes means strange or simply new the answer is the meaning strange is never used in the New Testament when the gripped em is kind eyes as it is in the case in muck it's never used never there are two words for new in the Greek language of the New Testament ty knows use in mark 16:17 in the plural form is kine eyes this is kindness the singular speak a new tongue it is kindness speak in new tongues pine eyes while the to temp can be used interchangeably there is a slight difference in meaning what do I mean of the two most common words for new since the Classical period in the Greek namely neo Santino's the former signify what does not there was not there before what has only just arisen and appeared the latter Kainos what is new and extensive as compared with other things let me pull it together in other words the US according to the mark 16 verse 17 number 7 verse 17 to speak with new tongues means to speak in language which when new to the speaker those which he had not acquired by normal learning process though they could have been acquired in this way under normal circumstances there was also a new quality example when the Bible says they will speak in new tongues it means the speakers who speak a language the heeta to do not know let's assume you a missionary in Ghana you come to my mother's village they speak a language speaking in Togo but of meaning some also in Cote d'Ivoire they speak away work bad for example when you want to be a preacher there you met people you cannot speak the our language then the Holy Spirit come upon you then you start to speak the ever language for example no socket at all maduk panel mythology a lululu a cackle or this I'm speaking means mighty God you are great you obey you are such a powerful God if the Holy Spirit come upon you you will be able to communicate in the language that the audience you must hear the gospel will understand the new doesn't mean strange it means the language exists but you who are here you don't know how to speak it question do we have Chinese languages yes or no if you begin to speak Chinese language to a Chinese in order to communicate the gospel that Bible text in the book of Mark is fulfilled when the Bible says in my name they will speak with new tongues it is not one language they are various but you remember you go to charismatic when you go to churches you can even tell the kind of tongue you hear sama Taba you yes Andrea socket Amma the Bible is even new Tonga it's used the plural form of the adjective it means a language that is new to you it doesn't mean a strange language that does not exists the other text that is coasting the problem is in Corinthians 14 we are talking about what does the Bible say about tongue you know the book of Corinthians was written by Paul everybody say power idea now say Paul Paul is a very difficult teacher so when you read the book of the three verse 16 Peter says the writings of Paul are difficult to understand so when you take the writings of policies those who don't those who are not mature in the faith in other words those who are novice those who are babies those who are now growing in the failing in Bible knowledge they will not fully understand what Paul means I want to read it directly I didn't put it in the projected slide second Peter chapter 3 verse 16 the Bible says and I quote as us also in all his epistles speaking them of these things in which us on things which are hard to understand which those who are unlearned those who are untouched those who are stable they twisted pity saying those who are children in Bible knowledge when they read the writings of Paul they twisted to their own eternal doom so we are coming to read the writings of Paul be careful if you're not careful you may misunderstand it and you follow falsehood and the devil may use you to go and ruin your life two biblical verses that causes confusion that is verse 2 in verse 14 let me read it for he does speak at an unknown tongue speak not unto men but unto God this is where the charismatic star jumping is a heavenly language for normal he understandeth him howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mystery for if I pray in an unknown tongue my spirit prayeth but my understanding is unfruitful this is a text that has caused false teaching about beginning tongues in the whole world this to vest and mark 16:17 I am told I have five minutes can I end it here and continue tomorrow in the morning what do you suggest or you want to give me some extra 10 minutes can I take your permission and take some 10 minutes MSE all those in favor let me see your hand some even start out in 15 minutes as a commercial break so these two verses say is the Bible one as that if you are not careful you may not understand the writings of Paul let's go and see how Paul explains this Bible verse lies it will have helped and brought an understanding but okay Emily this way you need to understand what was happening in Koreans before Paul routes the texts but the best way to understand a Bible passage that you don't understand is to look for other Bible passages that speak on the same subjects so that you can use it to unlock I mean a responsible method of interpretation seeks to understand the meaning of a difficult or obscure passage by a clever with Bible passages clay on laughs how easy to interpret the one that is difficult scripture must interpret scripture we must tell you all that the Bible has to say on the topic to see whether other part of scripture will shed light on the problem passage this is especially important since the same Greek word bruza is employed whyever speaking in tongues or cared in the Bible by studying the nature of tongues in every occurrence we can acetate whereas beginning tongue in Corinthians is unintelligible or it is intelligible we might never investigate let's start with what happened let me leave this one's jesus promised in Luke chapter 24 that speaking in tongues were come people who preach the gospel in the book of Acts after he is gone so on the day of Pentecost you know Pentecostal charismatic derived the authority of speaking in tongues from what happened on the day of Pentecost let's go and see if that tongue this book it is a real language or it is gibberish mocked-up chapter 2 verse 11 - verse verse 1 to verse 11 follow me carefully and I'm going to ask question mark Acts chapter 2 sorry verse 1 to verse 11 and when the day of Pentecost was fully come they were all with one Accord in one place and suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing Mighty Wind and it filled all the house where they were sitting verse 3 and there appeared unto them cloven tongues like a fire and it's up upon each of them and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost and to speak with other tongues and Ally as the spirits you remember this spoken tongue the Holy Spirit gave them utterance verse five and there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews devout men out of every nation under heaven now everybody in the world was gathered at the other program now when this was noised abroad the multitude came together and were confounded because that every man had them speak in his own language question according to verse 6 speaking in tongue is it a real language or it is gibberish now when this was noised abroad they started to speak in town so when the disciple was beginning talk the Bible say everybody came together and they were shocked they were confounded because every man had them speak in his own language what happened on the day of Pentecost was it Scott Amato it was a real language verse 7 further evidence and there were all amazed because it was everybody was beginning tongues so they were all amazed and they never say I want to another behold what a surprise and not all these who are Galileans and is not yerba man and it's not you name them many of you try I did not from this place add this for Galileans and how hear we every man in our own language where we were born the disciple begins to preach the gospel and everybody represented from every part of the world it is they will call it is a UN religious service everybody started carrying the disciple in their own language which languages were present verse 9 parthians and medes and elamites and the dwellers in mesopotamia and in Judea and Cappadocia in Pontus and Asia Phrygia and Pamphylia in Egypt and in the parts of Libya about Syria and strangers from one of just embrace allies Greeks and Arabians we do hear them speak in our under our language the wonderful words of all is speaking in tongue in the book of act is it real language or it is gibberish times on the day of Pentecost ladies and gentleman was the miraculous supernatural ability given by the Holy Spirit to believers to speak a real normal foreign language because when they were speaking the language because they are we are from France Elia we are for marriage we are from LMI we are from Mesopotamia we have an Cappadocia we are from pontus we are from Asia we are from Phrygia we are from Pamphylia we are from Egypt yay sylveon no those in Rome the person I don't swim Crete was from Arabia everyone represented was hearing the message in their own language why did we hear this from thus beginning donks is for Shira baba please don't get offended no it is a real language that is known it happen in lunch a real language if I'd gotten time I'm not going to accept the 10 and stuff but I in the book of art they spoke in tongues again and pita was there and then Peter said in a then everybody speaking Yoruba so me too because I'm from Ghana I know my mother's village it is time for me to speak in your native tongue he does because in a town not known by the congregation speak not unto men a new I am NOT speaking unto God because nobody understands what I am saying but in the spirit what I am saying God and us pants I'm a speaking a real language or I'm speaking gibberish for if I pray in an unknown tongue my spirit prays but my understanding is unfruitful what I want Eddie to get did you get it Nevada has less pray now eaten a lot I'm about to conclude this message please in the next five minutes let your spirit give this audience understanding not as I will but as you will in Jesus name do you understand now it's my understanding fruitful to you yes this is the simple Bible test instead of pastors for us to sit down a whole religion has come out of it it was from Ephesus that Paul wrote his letter to the Corinthians so Paul knew what the truth was he has seen it therefore what he wrote about Corinthians couldn't be something else different from what Peter and the rest know now let's read a test let's read a test in perspective Paul is now speaking in light of our understanding of the scripture as I ran up let's now read the vests that initially was confusing to us I'm reading from this one first one discipline 14 follow of the charity and thus a spiritual gift but rather die ye may prophesy for he does speak at an unknown tongue speak not unto men but unto God as iest for no man understandeth him habit in the spirit he speaketh mystery but he that prophesieth prophesized not unto men prophesized unto men to edification and exhortation and comfort he does speak at an unknown tongue edifies himself because when I prayed only I understood but he that prophesies edifies a check for if I pray in unknown tongue my spirit prayeth by my understanding is unfruitful what is it then I will pray with the spirit and I provide understanding also I was saying with a spirit and I was saying with understanding also oh I like the sixteen look at it very carefully else when thou shalt bless with the spirit Hausa he that occupied the room of the unlearned say amen by giving of thanks seeing he understandeth north what I'll say is when I prayed in Airway instruct me to say Amen I said never met never may in my mother's language means let it come to pass you didn't understand so how can you say let it come to pass if you don't know what I was saying so this was a Polish sale verse 17 for the verily giveth and I give turns well but the other is not edified other people who don't understand my mother's village language and not understanding anything I thank God Paul says I speak with tongues more than ye all thousand words in an unknown tongue yet in the church I had rather speak five words with my understanding that by my voice I might teach others also than ten thousand words in unknown tone was twenty brethren be not children in understanding habit in malice be children but in understanding behave like men in the law it is written with men of other tongues and other lips will I speak unto this people and yet for all that will they not hear me see as the Lord verse 22 wherefore tongue has signed for not that verse 23 if therefore the whole church be come together in one place and all speak with tongues and there come in those data and learn or unbelievers would they not say that we are mad so Paul said when you begin to speak in tongue let's assume even this is the raka Cassandra potala Jean de la la la it says if everybody is doing this nonsensical stuff who the people come and say that we are mad even this one is referring to real language if everybody is speaking ever everybody is speaking about everybody speaking Hausa everybody speaking French everybody speaking their language he said no excuse me if you do this when unbelievers come they will say we are ma when you come together the Genesis every one of you haven't sums have a doctrine have a tongue have a revelation have an interpretation let things be done and to edification say Amen if any man speak in an unknown tongue not Sri Baba in a real language let it be by two or at most three and by course let one interpret suppose this if you want to speak Yoruba in an English church speak it you want to speak you I was a fine you want to speak your main day or ever fine but somebody's you ought interprets lastly but if there be no interpreter let him keep silence in the church and let him speak to himself into God why for God is not the author of confusion but of peace as in all churches of the saints somebody say Amen [Applause] my brothers and sisters Tong in the Bible is the miracle of supernatural ability given by the Holy Spirit to believers to speak real non foreign language they may not previously step unknown for the express purpose of communicating the gospel it is not a gibberish this true gift of tongue is available today we needed to proclaim the gospel already God it is from the devil I'm sorry to say but this socket Amala I'm sorry it's not from God it's from the devil because the Bible says real tongue is a real language it is Satan's counterfeit it is designed to deceive if possible even the very elect in the six and I saw a revelation 16 three three unclean spirits come out of the mouth of the dragon out of the mouth of the beasts and out of the mouth of the false prophets for they are the spirits of Devil's working miracles do you notice that unintelligible ah ba ba ba ba as if they have frogs and I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon out of the mouth of the beasts the long mustache of I asked him don't he said yes and grunting delivers if this tongue is from every two years he has never spoken it again and at

aRyuUMmogKY | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aRyuUMmogKY | Classic Tuesdays: The Best Years of Our Lives | everybody hits John far back with another virtual classic Tuesday from the bedford playhouse tonight we're featuring a movie that's near and dear to my heart from 1946 the best years of our lives I first saw this on television when I was pretty young and it blew me away and it still does before getting into how the film came about I want to tell you about the man behind it the Samuel Goldwyn by 1944 Sam Goldwyn had been a major player in Hollywood for decades along with David O Selznick have gone with the wind he was the most powerful independent producer operating outside the major studios of the day Goldman was in fact one of the true pioneers of the movie industry he was born into AB poverty in Poland in 1879 and he arrived in America 20 years later with virtually nothing his anglicize name was Samuel goldfish over the first decade of the 20th century he became a successful glove salesman in upstate New York and early on he saw the commercial possibilities in what was then called moving pictures so in 1913 he went into the picture business himself producing the first feature film made in Hollywood the Man directed by Cecil B DeMille two years later Sam became partners with theatrical producers Edgar and Archibald selwyn they call their company Goldwyn Pictures combining the names goldfish and Selwyn well Sam liked the name so much he had his own name legally changed then and there - Goldwyn in 1924 he sold the company which was folded into Metro Pictures and Louis be Mayer productions to create the studio known as Metro Goldwyn Mayer the studio would always carry his name but he never actually worked for it by this point Sam was tired of having partners and his various partners might have been tired of having him thus he decided that going forward he would operate on his own as an independent producer calling all the shots himself well over the next thirty five years he worked just wave with his own talent under contract a colorful character over the years Sam would become known for his mangling of the English language these were known as Goldwyn isms here are just two of his most famous lines include Meowth and a verbal contract isn't worth the paper it's written on well these lines made Sam Goldwyn sound like a comical figure but make no mistake he was savvy tough and again he exerted complete control over his films so by 1944 Sam had been married to former actress Frances Howard for nearly 20 years hadn't always been an easy marriage but he really trusted her judgment and they had a great partnership well Frances had read an article called the way home in the August 7th 1944 issue of Time magazine profiling various servicemen returning from the war it really moved her and she passed it on to her husband suggesting the subject matter would make a great film well Sam was non-committal at first it was all just ruminating in his head but he quietly registered two possible titles for movie home again and the way home then he heard that the widely respected writer McKinley Kanter was coming to Hollywood looking for a film project Kanter would go on to win a Pulitzer Prize for his book Andersonville well Goldwyn showed him the time magazine piece and commissioned him to write a story and screenplay treatment and he was paid $20,000 for that the end result was a novel written in blank verse called glory for me about three soldiers coming back to the same town after the war well Gould would loved it but he felt he needed a top screenwriter to transform it into a strong shooting script he then approached another Pulitzer Prize winner Robert Sherwood whose script for Hitchcock's Rebecca had been oscar-nominated back in 1940 well Sherwood had quit screenwriting for the duration of the war to serve as one of FDR's top speech writers Sherwood agreed to come on board once his latest play premiered on Broadway golden also needed a top director but thankfully he already had one and William Wyler who'd been under contract to Goldwyn since the mid 30s before the war the two men had made movies together like dodsworth from 1936 weathering heights in 1939 and two years later the little foxes with Betty Davis now for most of the war Wyler had been in his native Europe going along on bombing missions to shoot all the action the most famous result of this was Wyler's 1944 documentary Memphis Belle a story of a flying fortress which was highly praised on release obviously the nature of this work was extremely dangerous but it also brought while are very close to the young pilots navigators and warriors whose heroism he captured the noise in those unpressurized planes had left a while are almost completely deaf he came home with just enough hearing in one ear to keep directing films and with the war still a fresh memory for him the only story goldwyn had that interested William Wyler was McKinley kantors glory for me so by the time Robert E Sherwood actually sat down to start writing the script he had met with both Goldwyn and Wyler perhaps he was simply out of practice but very soon Sherwood felt blocked he was particularly worried that by the time the film was released the story would seem hopelessly out of date Goldwyn knew he was struggling and invited him out to work and his private home in Los Angeles and talked through his issues well somewhere along the way Sherwood had a breakthrough one morning he came down to breakfast and talked Goldwyn through the whole script virtually just as it would end up on the screen Goldwyn found roles in the script for many of his contract players for Fred Derry the bomber pilot who comes back to a failing marriage and a dead-end job as a soda fountain attendant he cast Dana Andrews Andrews had become a star in 1944 playing opposite Gene Tierney and Otto Preminger's classic Laura Virginia Mayo would get to play Fred's floozy wife Murray while simultaneously shooting a Goldwyn comedy called The Secret Life of Walter Mitty with Danny Kaye on on many days she had to rush from one set to the other and alternate playing two very different characters Farley Granger was initially slated for part of disabled soldier homer parish and newcomer Kathy O'Donnell would play Wilma homers girlfriend finally Teresa Wright was cast as Peggy the grown daughter of the eldest soldier al Stevenson her character's romance with Fred really anchors the story to play her parents Al and Millie Goldwyn had to go outside his own stable and approach veterans Frederick March and Myrna Loy well March was now past his leading-man days and so he eagerly accepted the part the golden worried that Myrna Loy might not be such an easy sell she might think her part was too small and turned it down still a big star she was best known for her wildly popular films with William Powell including of course the Thin Man well it turned out Loy had read the McKinley Cantor story and loved it so she quickly took the part after making sure she'd get top billing well one last-minute change on the casting front would actually do wonders for the film in the original script Homer Parrish returns home with a condition caused by battle trauma while it was concerned that actually portraying this on screen it might be too much for audiences but he had no alternative in mind until he happened to see a short film called diary of a sergeant about the rehabilitation of wounded veterans there in the film was Harold Russell who'd lost both of his hands when some dynamite he was holding during a training session exploded well he had since mastered the use of the hooks that you see in the film Wyler decided to test Russell for Homer and found he was a natural but what he also liked about him was how gracefully he accepted his disability one of the ironies of the story of course is that out of the three returning soldiers Homer the most visibly disabled makes the most positive readjustment once finished sherwood screenplay for best years of our lives was over 200 pages long nearly twice the length of an average script but neither Goldwyn nor Wyler's saw much fat to cut so finally they accept that it would be a long film just 10 minutes short of three hours as it turned the best use of our lives was a uniquely personal project from William Wyler above all else he wanted the film to feel totally authentic and to reflect an almost documentary style realism for his actors wardrobes he insisted they buy regular clothes off the rack and wear them for several weeks off camera before shooting he also demanded that the whole crew be comprised of military veterans he then added new elements to the script drawing from his own wartime experiences so during the war Wyler flew in the very same planes that Fred Derry piloted he personally knew several Fred dairies so he seized on the opportunity of Yard nearby using it to create perhaps the film's most powerful sequence when Fred visits it as you will call the open space is filled with lines of old b-17 and b25 bombers that overnight have become obsolete and irrelevant like Fred himself then there's an incredibly touching moment when Al and Milly first glimpse each other down a hallway after a very long separation Wyler's own reunion with his wife in 1944 had unfolded just like that finally the scene when Fred gets fired for punching the customer who criticizes the war effort - Homer Wyler himself had socked a hotel doorman for mouthing off in the same way these personal touches really add to the emotion and the essential honesty of the film Goldwyn Wyler were also extremely fortunate to have Gregg Toland on board as cinematographer Toland was already famous for having taught a young man named Orson Welles how to use a camera on a little film called Citizen Kane he'd also worked on quite a few Goldwyn productions in the past including two directed by Willie Wyler weathering Heights and the little foxes one pivotal scene in best years features tollens trademark use of deep focus photography where objects in both foreground and background stay in focus it's when Al and Fred meet at Butch's bar and al tells the married Fred stop seeing his daughter Peggy Fred agrees to call her and heads toward the phone booth then as he enters the booth we see Homer come in and go over to talk to butch who's played by a singer/songwriter Hoagy Carmichael well in a single shot we can observe Fred talking to Peggy in the background in the booth as Butch and Homer perform a sloppy duet of chopsticks in the foreground by the way a quick word on Hoagy Carmichael he wrote some incredibly popular music back in the day including Stardust Georgia on my mind and Skylark he made a very successful movie debut two years earlier crooning with newcomer Lauren Bacall into haves and have-nots the best years of our lives was finally released to wild acclaim at the end of 1946 Bosley Crowther of the New York Times had this to say it is seldom that there comes a motion picture which can be wholly and enthusiastically endorsed not only as superlative entertainment but as food for quiet and human uh I think thought the film was a box-office smash earning a whopping 11.5 million dollars in North America over its initial run that's huge now part of this came from raising ticket prices due to the movie's prestige value and also its length which meant fewer showings per day for exhibitors at the 1947 Oscars the best years of our lives won seven statuettes including Best Picture for Sam Goldwyn Best Actor for Frederick March Supporting Actor for Harold Russell director for William Wyler and Best Screenplay for Robert East Sherwood an arrow also became the only actor ever to win two Oscars for the same role thinking he'd never get the votes to win the competitive Oscar the Academy voted him a special one for bringing hope and courage to his fellow veterans after this Russell went back to college earned his degree and over time became a tireless advocate for the disabled the other key players had more good movies ahead of them particularly Wyler but for most all of them the best years of our lives reflected if not a peak in their careers certainly a special moment of triumph really Robert EE Sherwood should never have worried in the nearly 75 years since its release the film has never once felt out of date thanks for joining me everyone see you back here soon you okay and now we're gonna invite John to join us hey Joe hello so just a reminder everybody please feel free to post your questions at the Q&A button as we go along we did have a couple of questions that were submitted in advance I will actually start with so John right off the bat someone had asked the question and given the subject areas of post-traumatic stress disorder and the plight of veterans returning home from the war is such a contrast to the more standard feel good patriotic beam films that came during and after the war did this make this a target for say a house on American Activities Committee no the the more upbeat Patriotic War films were really done as propaganda during the war and that was a very different thing this was much more along the lines of All Quiet on the Western Front which showed the trauma of modern warfare just happened to be the first world war and that came out in 1930 so that was just as talkies were beginning and that was really showing the trauma of over the front of the battlefield and what it does to men World War one was a very different kind of war than any other war in all wars were obviously terrible and awful and the Civil War was was so costly and so bloody but the mechanization of warfare really came through in the First World War and so that was what All Quiet on the Western Front was about this really is no different this is how it just happens to be exploring that same theme in in terms of the Second World War but the movies that were made during the war were really propaganda films to make the public support the effort and those were very different kinds of movies and in fact after the war if you look at the types of movies that were being made from 1946 on let's say into the well into the 50s it was a much darker time with the atomic war the atomic bomb a reality a lot of uncertainty the Cold War it was the time of film noir much sort of darker more cynical view of of humankind at that point as a result of the war so I see this as very I see best years of our lives is really very very different and distinct from the the more propaganda propagandistic films of that were being made during the actual war how do you think the film sets the tone for later films like on similar subjects like The Deer Hunter and coming home there's a there's an old saying I don't know whether it's a Hollywood saying or broader than that but there are no new stories and so you know I bring up all I bring up all Quiet on the Western Front best years of our lives and then those movies coming home and The Deer Hunter which are really on the same theme of what what the Agony's and the horrors of war which those who have not experienced it can never even begin to imagine what it's like or how it can absolutely traumatize one's psyche and one's ability to function that by the time coming home and the deer hunter came out you know it was how they treated those those issues and those stories it wasn't that the idea of battlefield trauma whatever we call didn't used to be called PTSD but it it was the same I'm gonna say it's the same thing because you know it's all I don't want to make it seem like it's you know I don't want to trivialize it but it wasn't a new theme to be explored and films what war does to man particularly in the 20th century is there any significance to the fact that Dana Andrews character outranks Frederick March even though he's younger and he's less successful in civilian life that's a really interesting question piers here's what I think you have Dana Andrews who's obviously a lot younger Dana Andrews to become a pilot has to have terrific reflexes and great eyesight and as the you know the the to become a bomber pilot or a Bombardier whatever you were you know to be one of those people it tended to be very young young men in fact a lot of those guys were a lot younger than Dana Andrews was in that movie and you know they had to have certain special attributes but their bravery you know the danger that they that they underwent and the training that they underwent was such that they were going to get advanced very quickly I mean you know they were going to be officers the way I've read the character of Frederick March ow is that he's a much older guy and he may have he may have been in the the first war as a kid you know in the last few months of that war maybe maybe not but he isn't going to be a pilot he's too old so he probably had to struggle to even get accepted but he wanted to do it and he volunteered and he enlisted and he didn't go into a special officers program so that wasn't that wasn't that uncommon actually and in fact it's a really great part of the story because you have this contrast between this great hero this pilot who comes back and you know has a dead end has dead end prospects and it's a soda jerk whereas you have read with Marge he was a little older and just wanted to enlist and did didn't even bother to you know try to become an officer but wanted to serve and was in the infantry he comes back to a cushy job in the bank but it's not that's not at all unbelievable in the context of the time okay now we have a couple questions that have been submitted now by some folks who are tuned in this evening can you talk a little bit about the naturalism in the film compared to some of the work that why allure did later on specifically referencing the spectacle have been her this is a much quote-unquote quieter movie how deliberate was that style Wyler when he Wyler was a director who liked to think that he could do anything and when you look at his filmography he was pretty much right so when he took Ben Hur in 1959 he wanted to show the world that he could make a movie like Cecil B DeMille he wanted to do a spectacle he wanted to show that proved to himself and others that he could do a spectacle you know a David lean or sessile B DeMille type spectacle which is thousands of extras and huge venue you know huge sets and a million moving parts but but Wyler you know for him it was about the story and and this was a very unusual film for him because it was so personal and I said that in my introduction he had just come back from this experience himself it was a it was in his immediate past that he had been in one of these bombers I mean what are we talking to two years before and he had seen all of this up close so the idea of dramatizing what these people that he hung out with and he's the life-and-death situations what it was like to go home after this amazing dramatic explore experience was really really really close to his heart and soul and he had a certain view of it which is he didn't want it to be romanticized too much he wanted it to feel very real and he wanted immediacy and I I referred to a documentary style or documentary like realism and he wanted that people don't know this but in those days when you did a set to make the set look better and to make the whole film look glamorous everything on a set would say it was a living room everything's a little larger than it should be if you go on the set you look everything looks just a little bit bigger because it photographs better well for this moment he didn't want that so everything is photographed in actual size and there's there's not there's it feels like you're watching this always felt to me like you're watching the story of real people and real families and and you know Myrna Loy is so wonderful in it you know she's just so saying you know I love this man he's back after this experience that I wasn't there for so I don't know what happened and he's drinking too much and he's behaving a little hardly but I loved him so much that I that I'm gonna be there for him and I'm gonna understand it or I'm gonna try to understand that's that was there was no that was not a Hollywood you know romanticized role that was real that felt very real and I think that's what the film offers today but Wyler wanted that for that particular film and every different film he did he had a different idea about but he he often said listen 80% of it is the script 80% of it is the story if I've got that and I've got good actors I can do this I mean I can do it but he wasn't he wasn't like Hitchcock and I don't mean this to put Hitchcock down but he wasn't sort of you know you know what you're gonna get with a Hitchcock film because Wyler did a lot of different different kinds of films I mean Roman Holiday is one of the great romantic comedies of all time wasn't known for romantic comedies but he did them and he did all sorts of different kinds of since he was probably one of the Eve's one of the greatest directors of all time and he was very tough on actors and he would never give them direction it drove he wouldn't give them very specific direction she'd say do it again do it again so when Myrna Loy who'd never worked with him went on this film he was known as you know 40 take Willy you know and do it again just do it again well what do you want me to do different just do it better that's what he would say to him and she was terrified but she was actually pleasantly surprised on this particular picture so that was good hope that answers depression do you have any insights about the musical composition for the film was it oscar-nominated or did it receive any awards that's a very good question I can look that up right now I think it I'm gonna find out right now if I'm not mistaken it was Hugo free to offer it's a very nice it's a good score and it adds a lot but it's not a score that tends to be that you know that's not what people think of the movie and say you know it's the it's the music but actually it was Hugo free to offer and he did win an Oscar so he did what he won an Oscar for best scoring of a motion picture film and it is it's a it's a score that feels right for the film it's got the the movie I don't know why it's one of the reason it's one of my favorite movies is that it has tremendous humanity and it's a very moving to me at least I mean I'm emotional watching that movie that movie makes me extremely emotional and the and that and the score for the free dollar score really does add to it because this really is a movie about about people and it's about people and it isn't just about the people who return from the war different and need to try to figure out how to readjust it's about the people who stayed behind who have the people they love come home and they're sitting there going who is this I mean they're not the same and that they are confused and and nervous about how do i you know how do I deal with this and how do I change to be right for this person so yeah that guy won an Oscar disgorge it speaking of writing in that era the relationship between Hollywood and writers and other genres playwrights like Robert Sherwood is amazing and includes some really incredible names like Robert Sherwood when did this start to change you don't see that too much anymore well in fairness I mean that was sort of also part of Sam Goldwyn zem oh he wanted always to make a picture's a a list pictures he didn't he wasn't like a studio that you know most of the studios had different levels of films that they would do they would do the B pictures the protocol programmers and then they'd have their a pictures and and they would be selling the theaters basically a package and you'd go in and you'd have the newsreel you'd have a newsreel and you'd have a B picture that was a serial you know half an hour or whatever and then you have your main feature Goldwyn was all about a a Pictures and so he put a big premium on having the best writers available working for him and having said that it is true that in those days the scripts and the store there was much more of a focus on script and story than there is today part of it is that in those days people read more so literature and and words language complete sentences like words of more than two three syllables were more common and today I mean at all everything started with with Star Wars you know back in the late 70s and in terms of the kinds of movies that Hollywood wanted to make and how they introduce those movies how they distributed those movies how they promoted those movies and over time with the advances in technology the movies have become more comic book-like they're more about how scenes are shot they're more about visual effects they're more about kinetic action all the time and the scripts are there are exceptions I mean European films I would say a really good European film or Asian film they're the international films still are more I think story and script focus but it's really hard for me sometimes to either I'm watching a new movie and I'm listening to dialogue and it's just it's not it just doesn't have that the creativity and the cleverness and the nuance that some of the great older movies sad very sad uh next question is nowadays we're led to believe that the spirit and economy of the US was a boom time for returning veterans and the public in general was this movie portraying a view of reality or was it showing the plight of those few who found it difficult to return to positions or find decent jobs you know there there was the GI Bill there was opportunity there was you don't worry that fred is gonna have a you know I don't worry that Fred dairy is gonna eventually be okay but don't forget this is 1946 they're just back and so could you predict it a booming economy the growth that would happen and no I mean it was all it was all going to happen so but there were opportunities and you know the United States was coming into its I mean you know today we call the the Fred dairy generation the greatest generation these was my father came back from that war and he got on the GI Bill anyway was able to go to law school so but that wasn't everybody I mean not everybody was able to do that it was open to certain people there were various different reasons why certain people couldn't take advantage of it or didn't take advantage of it and but there were opportunities and and the United States as a world power was at that moment really for the first time well more than I would say more than ever as far as I can attest was at the top of the heap in terms of being the ascendant world power I mean World War one they were you know there we were a young country with lots of resources and people and but after World War two when we won that war with our allies we were we were top of the heap and then we and that that we had that going forward for quite a long time so there was a lot of opportunity and I don't worry that Fred and Peggy are you know he probably ended up becoming an insurance man and having a good career and then good home and you don't worry that he's not going to make it because they were I mean notwithstanding some of the awful things that happened like the the you know McCarthyism and all that stuff there are a lot of opportunities in America America was got was about to go into into a big growth phase are you familiar with the book end or documentary v came back which talks about Wyler's war experiences among directors yes recommend it yes I recommend it I recommend the film I recommend the book it's it's he and some of the other great directors like John Huston and George Stevens all these wonderful directors of Highlands Golden Age wanted to find a way to record what was going on in the war and they each found their own ways to do it and this this book and documentary basically traces these direct these amazing directors and what each of them did and what they brought back it's it's it's wonderful I'm glad that was brought because that is it's fabulous um you talked a little bit about this the cinematography is incredible not only the ability to draw the audience to the important details or the character but the images seemed so clean sharp that they draw and hold the eye of the audience better than other films that in memory you talk about Gregg Toland a little bit you yes or anything else to add about him it was the best I mean you know he there was no one there was no one better with a camera than Gregg Toland I would ask you all to to you know look him up and look at and look at the look at his filmography and again I mean I go back to the story of what he did for and how lucky was was Orson Welles I mean he was the precocious 25 year old theater director who came out to Hollywood and get was given carte blanche to do his movie and who did you get but Gregg Toland to teach him how to hold it what a camera does he had no damn clue so you look at some of the movies that he did all of which have very haunting and arresting sort of visual style whether it's Citizen Kane or weathering Heights The Grapes of Wrath I mean Minh you know it goes on and on he did the Bishop's wife Goldwyn film that I love I'll just mention this because before you know it will be it'll be December and they'll be Christmastime everyone thinks to watch It's a Wonderful Life every year but watch the Bishop's wife It's a Wonderful Life is great but we've all seen it 30 times or I have bishops wife is a wonderful Christmas movie with Cary Grant and Loretta Young and David Niven that was Samuel golden that was Gregg Toland doing the the cinematography so all the fire the little foxes the Westerner Intermezzo I mean he did he did so many dead end as a wonderful early Bogart film he he was the best he was the best there was and but again like Wyler and that's why they would work well together it wasn't like all right if it's Gregg Toland it's gonna look you know it's gonna be just this way he was good enough so that he he really he understood the story understood the material and then he would do whatever needed to be done but his use of deep focus photography was was I mean oh that was a real innovation that he that he mastered I love that scene where you're watching you know them playing chopsticks and but in the background where you're really looking is Dana Andrews talking to Peggy and you're having to imagine what what he's saying to her and you later find out but it's it's really it's an amazing moment the way that whole shot is framed okay I invite people to keep asking questions we've been going at a pretty good clip here if you have any more please post them here's one about Dana Andrews sort of flies under the radar this is probably the role he's best remembered for can you tell us a little bit more about him he was he was very good he you know he he was for years you know he he'd started out doing something else and he you know he came from a family with not a lot of money and then he decided when he was late 20s early 30s it wasn't just like you know leaving high school to become an actor he just all of a sudden decided I want to you know I want to go out and try to be an actor I want to go to Hollywood and he spent a lot of years knocking around Hollywood and not really getting anywhere and and then he started you know it's again a lot of these these stories are familiar where you just he just kept at it kept at it kept at it and I am hold on I want to tell you some of the movies that you know he had some small parts there's a wonderful comedy called ball of fire that was Sam Goldwyn so Sam Goldwyn basically put him under contract Mike finally but he wasn't a star right away so he was in a movie called ball of fire which was a Gary Cooper movie and he plays a gangster and he does not it's not it's not a big part and the other movie that he was in the following year that I loved but again not a huge part is the Oxbow incident which is really about you call it a lynching it wasn't it wasn't a a black person being lynched it was a it was out in the West and somebody gets hung who hasn't had a trial and that was directed by William Wellman and it starred Henry Fonda that was 42 and he was in that but again it was a featured role so but he kept you know he kept working kept working kept working and then he did Laura and he plays the detective and Laura directed by Otto Preminger and that was a smash that was that was a smash and then he did you know he was in a great movie called fallen angel a walk in the Sun a Western that I'm actually getting and looking forward to watching coal Canyon passage then he did best years our lives and then he turned around and did a very good curly Elia Kazan film called boomerang did a picture with Joan Crawford called Daisy Kenyon another movie that I loved from 1950 is called where the sidewalk ends a very good noir again with Gene Tierney he had a drinking problem and over time he became the word was out on him and he was known to be unreliable and then the the roles were not as the movies weren't as good and the roles weren't as good but he kept working and I think he he had a brother named Steve Forrest who was on TV was a TV actor several brothers but his heyday was really from 1944 to 1950 I mean that was when he did all his best his best work if there are no other questions did anybody else I would like to post a question for John please go ahead and do so John you forgot to mention that boomerang was the first film shown at the Bedford Playhouse when it was first oh my god how could I forgotten that yeah it was and it's a very good movie if you all haven't seen it in euralia Kazan fans you should definitely catch that what I mean Dana Andrews is always very good and it was just a tea and a terrible hit a terrible alcohol alcohol doesn't issue but he's wonderful in this I had such a good time seeing this movie again seen it many many many times over the years but hadn't seen it in a while saw it with one of my son's who've never seen it loved it which is saying something for a black-and-white film that runs two hours and 50 minutes so I'm so glad you all watch and it's it's a movie that I that I always return to alright looks like we don't have any other questions so thank you again John we should announce to everybody that John is now taking a very well-deserved summer break and hopefully when he comes back it will actually be at the theater knock wood that's over let's hope in the meantime we're gonna keep the virtual playhouse going and in a couple of weeks we're gonna have a conversation about some like it hot with Marilyn Monroe and Jack Lemmon and Tony Curtis directed by Billy Wilder whose birthday was yesterday I don't look at you that John did you know that 14 it would have been 114 if he was still so we want to thank you very much for coming tonight and John have a great vacation thank you when you're rested up we'll come back and we'll start doing some stuff on the big screen again with a little bit of luck looking forward to that all right thanks again for attending everybody have a good night thanks everybody see you soon you | Bedford Playhouse | UCIj7b3RHbGZ3QrKuUPlKftQ |

fVcyUODCgNQ | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fVcyUODCgNQ | Mod-01 Lec-20 Knights and Knaves Puzzles | welcome back in the last class we presented semantic tablox method which is due to three logicians it is originated in the works of beth and then later it was simplified by raymond smulian and you will find the same kind of work in the work of hintica in his work modal sets so there seems to be one of the same so semantic tablox is a very interesting and important method with which you will come to know whether or not a given well form formula is valid when two group sub statements are consistent to each other are when two statements are two well-formed formulas are logically equivalent to each other etc so in continuation to the last class so we discussed about some rules with which you know there are alpha rules and beta rules and then we we have also said that there is some kind of strategy which will be adapting in the process of using this particular method that is this that so whenever you come across a non branching formula first you you have to utilize this thing first and then use branching formulas and all so now in continuation to the last class we will be talking about some definitions in the context of the semantic tablox method so in the semantic tab blocks method so these are some of the definitions that will be following anyway indirectly we discussed all these things but in a more formal way we'll be defining these terms the first and foremost important thing is what we call it as path of a tree so what we are simply trying to do is given a well formed formula we are trying to construct it upside down kind of tree and then we are trying to see whether or not a given well-formed formula is valid or consistent when two groups of formulas are consistent etcetera so a path of a tree is a complete column of formulas from top to bottom of the tree so then that is considered to be the part of the tree for example if you have this particular kind of thing this is the root this is upside down kind of three a tree will be looking like this these are all branches and this is a trunk but in in our case it will be like this so the it is an upside down kind of tree so now suppose if you have a formula like this and then this and then this leads to this branch leads to three more branches like this and for example this leads to this so now uh we have a given well-formed formula here and then this is considered to be the root that is where this your well form formula will be sitting and then it is reduced reduced into some kind of atomic variables pqs are which cannot be further reduced so that's why these are called as atomic propositions at the end of this this path you will end up with only atomic sentences so now in this tree diagram this is considered to be one path and there is one more path it is going like this and there is one more path this is the third part like that you know this is considered to be ah part of this particular kind of trick once you construct a tree for a given well form formula and that is going to be the path this is a complete column of all the formulas from top to bottom top is the root and the bottom is usually ends up with some kind of atomic sentences because atomic sentences you cannot apply any you cannot further apply any rules so that's why it remains at the end of the node as atomic sentences once you come across atomic synthesis you will stop constructing the tree so the other definition is the finished path that is a closed path a path which is considered to be finished if it is said to be closed especially if it is closed when a prepositional variables are its negation of the variables exist in the branch so if x and not x exist the branch closes or the other way the branch remains it cannot be further extended is this that if it ends with some kind of atomic variable variables atomic sentences p q rs etcetera then no further rules can be applied on this p's queues r's etcetera so that's why the path ends there itself so you will be working you will be using alpha and beta rules till to such an extent that you will end up with only atomic prepositions either that is the case or you may come across some kind of conflicting information that is it is considered to be a literal and its negation exists then usually you put a mark like this that means the branch closes here so when the conflicting information exists the branch closes are when you are ending up with atomic propositions there are no further lows which you can apply that means the tree cannot be extended further it stops there itself so that means a tree is set to be closed or finished if all its parts are closed that means you will be checking all the formulas you will start all the well formed formulas one two three etc and all you keep checking those formulas using alpha beta rules and construct a tree and if all the formulas are checked and then you will end up with only atomic prepositions then there is no nothing else you can do i think you cannot extend the tree further it stops there itself because you have exhausted all the rules and other things and you ended up with atomic sentences and that is considered to be finished path or the other way of saying that it is a finished path is that when you have a conflicting information once you check all the well form formulas then also it is considered to be a finished path so now an open path is a path that has not been ended with that mark x or a closed path is a one ah path that has been ended with an x so this means uh this particular kind of thing so suppose if you have some formula p r q and q implies r for example so now you start constructing applying alpha and beta rules first you apply on this one so this is q r and then you apply ah since this is checked so you you put tick mark here and then so what you will be doing is you will be checking this formula and then this is prq and now each branch you need to write this information so now ah so all these branches are open so there is no conflicting information you know so this ah whenever you have a conflicting information q and not q you put this mark x mark so that means this branch cannot be further extended it closes here itself so this is considered to be a closed path so now we have exhausted all the rules and all so that means the final final formulas that exist in your tree are going to be only atomic prepositions so so this is one thing which will be noted so we are defining what we mean by closed path and the open path etcetera and all so whenever you don't come across the mark x it is considered to be open path whenever it is whenever you come across mark x that means there is a conflicting information you you mark it with x so these are some of the definitions that we will be using so another definition is this that a formula occurs on a path if it is on the path and it is not merely a sub formula of some other formula on that path or second it is unchecked so if you once you check the formulas and all it goes it gets exhausted so it cannot be further used so that means either the formula should be unchecked or if you if it is checked and you should end up with only atomic prepositions and here is an important strategy which one will be using that strategy is is that first you apply non branching rules before the branching rules one example could be for example if you have a formula p and q and you have a formula p implies q let us say p r q implies r for example so now ah first you need to apply non branching rule so non branching rule can be like this so these are some of the rules alpha and beta rules the branching non branching rules are like this that means the formula doesn't lead to some kind of branch so this is a non branching rule or this is also another kind of non branching rule suppose if not of p implies q is simply p and not q so usually these two are considered to be a non branching rules another one is if you have a negation of negation of p and you will get so now here the strategy here is to use this non branching rules first either you can use this or that suppose if you open it open this first it leads to so many branches then it gives us excessive information and also better to use non branching rules first you expand this one so p and q is simplifies to p q so this is one simplification etcetera one simplification and then again we are not supposed to use this one because it leads to branch it is p or q and plus r so better exhaust this particular kind of thing so now this is p and not q so this is a strategy one adopts in this particular kind of technique first you use non-branching rules i mean those formulas that doesn't lead to branch are the ones which needs to be taken into consideration so now as you clearly see here so now you have q and not q and all this closes here itself so now it doesn't matter whether or not you use this particular kind of formula p r q implies r etc so the branch closes here itself so this is considered to be a proof for a particular thing that these three statements are inconsistent to each other are inconsistent to each other so that's why all the branches closes it does not matter what formula is there in the third kind of thing for however suppose if you have used branching rules first here is the problem which comes to the thing you know the same formula which we have taken into consideration so this is the correct way of applying this thing non branching rules first first we have used non branching rule so now instead of that we have used branching rule first then here is the problem the problem is like this now instead of expanding these two formulas instead of checking these formulas first you are trying to check this particular kind of formula so now this leads to p q implies r so now we can use any other formula and all p and q so now this is the one which we have used both are checked so now this needs to be expanded so now p and q needs to be added on both sides so now you check these two formulas now you yourself will see that when you use branching rules first although you are you can use a non-branching rules here this leads to the problem the problem is is that first of all the whatever you are trying to show will have more number of steps or if you are suppose if you are showing this if you are showing the validity of a given formula it involves more steps so now this ended in seven steps itself with seven step you you could say that these three statements are inconsistent to each other but here there are already 4 5 6 and then your 7 here and there will be some more so now you need to write this one also so p and not q so now here it is b and not q p and not q so now here you have eight nine or something like so instead of seven steps you have nine steps and all so that is the reason why so we will always be using non branching rules first when compared to this branching kind of rules in a semantic tableaux tree this is a very important strategy which comes through practice so it's a convention which logicians follow so always whenever you have a non branching formula better to open it up rather than a branching kind of formula because it in it involves more number of steps now so in fact this semantic tablox method can also be used as some kind of proof method proof procedure kind of method a proof is a one which consists of finite number of steps and which ends in finite intervals of interval of time no proof can be considered to be an effective proof if it never ends in it goes on and on and on and on so a proof has to end in finite steps of course it should take a finite number of finite amount of time then it is considered to be an effective kind of proof but you know once once you start with non branching rules of course you will get the answer and all but the number of steps will be more informational economy cannot be maintained if you use branching rules first over non branching rules that is the reason why we follow this particular kind of strategy that is always apply non branching rules before the branching rules so now we defined all these things in the context of truth table method for example a formula is valid especially when when you are true premises and you do not find a false conclusion as long as you do not find a true premises in a false conclusion then obviously the formula is going to be valid so you have to inspect in the truth table all the rows and if there is any row in which you have premises are true and the conclusion is false then the argument is invalid and in the same way a formula is said to be satisfiable especially when you need to inspect at least one row in which your premises at least in one of the under the main logical connectivity at least you have one t if all if there are all these and all then it is said to be unsatisfiable the group of statements are unsatisfiable or inconsistent so now ah the same things which will define in the context of semantic tablox method so that is first if you want to determine whether a formula is valid one needs to construct a tree using all the alpha beta rules which we have been discussing so far first what we will be doing is you take the premises into consideration and the negation of the conclusion if all the paths closes then the formula is considered to be valid if it is not then it is going to be invalid some examples which we take into consideration and then we will see when a given formula i mean when the conclusion follows from the premises now that means the validity some simple examples can be like this p implies q implies r let us consider this one q and from that you got q implies r so these are considered to be premises and this is separated by an iphone this is considered to be the conclusion so now in the semantic tab blocks method in order to show that q implies r follows from p implies q plus r and p what you will be doing is first you deny the conclusion so that means you need to write here denial of conclusion once you deny the conclusion now you will be constructing the tree diagram for this thing and then you need to see whether all the branches closes or not so now as usual we follow we apply non branching rule first so that means you need to open up this one so this is q and not r so this is three when simplifies it got it gets simplified and then you will get q and not r so now we check this formula so that's why we had put this mark so now you open up this thing this is an atomic sentence you do not have to do much so now we need to open up this one p implies q and plus r so now this is a branch because uh you have a formula x implies y x implies y the construction tree for this one is not x and y so now this is not p and q implies r is as it is so now you have p here and not p here this branch closes so now we need to expand this thing little bit further so this will q implies r will become again this rule use x implies y is not x y so now this becomes q implies r becomes this one not q r so now we have q and not q is a conflicting information this branch closes and you have r here and you have not r here results branch also closes so what is that we got simply this that negation of the conclusion leads to branch closure that means it is unsatisfiable that means it leads to a contradiction i mean all the branches closes then negation of x is this one then x has to be t where this stands for board is always false so formulas which are always false and this t this is totally different from the formula that we use small t so this is this stands for truth of course this is also considered to be true but it is always true and all so this is the symbol is represented as top so that means x is a tautology x is a total that is what we have said that means the actual conclusion is the one which stands because we negated the conclusion and led to contradiction and all so that's why we have to retain the original conclusion that is q implies r so negation of q implies r leads to contradiction now that means q implies r has to be true q plus r is the true conclusion of these two premises so it is in this way one can show a given ah form uh when when a conclusion follows from the premises that means the validity for validity what you need to do simply is is that you take the negation of the conclusion and see whether all the branches closes if all the branches closes then the negation of the conclusion is false that means the actual conclusion stands as it is so if the negation of the conclusion doesn't lead to a branch closure then that means there are at least some kind of interpretations which satisfies your truth premises are true and the conclusion is false now that means you already constructed a counter model so that is the reason why this semantic tablox method uh one of the the essence of this semantic tableaux method is to look for some kind of counter models here we could not come up with any counter models thats why the argument is valid so the another way of showing a particular kind of argument is valid or invalid is simply this thing suppose if there are two formulas a and b and b is a logical consequence of a or this a implies a a logically implies b as valid it is sufficient to show that a and not b is unsatisfiable so if you want to say that for example so this is the one which we want to see so now let us take formula a as p and q and then b as something like not p r not p e naught q something like this two formulas on the one hand you have this and your this one so now if you want to show that this this is a logical consequence of this one what you need to do is first you need to write like this not p or not q and then you construct a tree for this one and then this becomes not p or not q and in all the branches it becomes uh it the branch closes you know but that is not what we are trying to say so what we are trying to show is this particular kind of thing so p and q and not of not p are not q if this remains unsatisfiable then so this is a logical consequence of this one but actually that is not the case so now you expand this one it becomes p and q not not p is p not not q is q and negation of disjunction is conjunction so now this branch is open it satisfies this particular kind of thing that means this is not a ah once again p and not q has to be unsatisfiable for showing that this particular kind of argument is valid otherwise it is considered to be invalid so that is another way of showing that whether or not a given formula is valid or invalid so what we are trying to do is ah a logically implies b that means b is a logical consequence of a so a is considered to be premises and b is considered to be conclusion suppose if you can come across at least two premises in a false conclusion and obviously the argument is invalid so ah another thing which you can do with the help of for the semantic diablox method is you can show whether two sets of formulas or two given formulas are consistent to each other or not for that what you need to do is you list out all the formulas and then construct a tree when at least one branch is open then it is considered to be consistent if all the branches closes then it is considered to be inconsistent and there is another way of saying that a given formula is a tautology a formula is considered to be tautology that means always true if and only if not a is unsatisfiable so that is this particular kind of thing so what we are trying to say here is this thing so you take any formula p implies q implies p this is what is the formula which is given to us so now according to the definition if you want to show that this particular formula is a tautology what you need to show is this thing not of x is unsatisfiable unsatisfiable in a sense that if take the negation of this one all branches should close so now that is what we are trying to see not of x is this one p implies q implies p so this is denial of original well form formula the given well form formula so now this has to be unsatisfiable that means all the branches should close after applying alpha beta rules so now this is one formula there is another formula x and y so naught of x implies y is x and not y so now you construct a tree for this one this becomes q implies p so now this further reduces to q and not p so now you have p here and not p here conflicting information the branch closes here so that means negation of the formula leads to the branch closure all the branches closes here there is only one branch here this is a path like this so this branch closes so that means it is considered to be unsatisfiable if at least one branch is open in the construction of your tree of a given formula then it is said to be satisfiable but in all the branches there is only one branch here that closes here so that means not of x is said to be unsatisfiable if not of x is considered to be unsatisfiable then obviously the given formula is considered to be tautology and you need to note that all tautologies are obviously valid formulas so this is the relation between satisfiability and validity validity i mean the tautology so something is considered to be a tautology only when the negation of the formula is considered to be unsatisfiable so if the negation of x is considered to be satisfiable then it is not considered to be a tautology first of all it may be contingent statement or it can be maybe even con contradiction as well so we cannot say that a given formula is considered to be valid so based on the information that negation of the given formula is satisfied so we have to ensure that not a is unsatisfiable then only you can say that a is a kind of valid formula it is all valid formulas are obviously tautologies the other thing which you can do with the help of semantic tablox method is this contingency so we have defined statements into statements of propositional logic into three categories tautologies which are always true contradictions which are always false and contingent statement which can be sometimes true sometimes false so for this we need to construct two different trees one is to test whether ah just for the consistency another one is to test for the validity so if the formula is consistent but not valid then it is said to be contingent for example if you have a formula uh like this formula like this thing for example p implies q r uh not p or something like that so now this is the formula that we have so now what you do is you negate this formula and then see whether all the branches close that means not of x is unsatisfiable that is what we are trying to show so now this is if you expand this thing use alpha beta rules and all beta rule which you need to apply and this becomes q r naught p so now this is ah not q and not p so this closes that means it is considered to be a tautology you know so now let us take another example where the branches does not close so now this example could be p r q implies r implies something like uh yes some formula you take into consideration whatever comes to my mind just i am writing it on this thing so now we want to see whether it is a contingent or tautology or contradiction so for this again you deny the original formula and start constructing a tree so now you write the same thing here brackets needs to be written clearly so this is one formula is another formula so now this can be written as p e plus q plus r not s because naught of x implies y is x and not y so now you further expand this thing then this becomes p r q and r so this is the one which this further simplifies to not p not q and you will observe that all the branches remains open that means negation of the given formula doesn't lead to branch closure that means not x is not unsatisfiable so that means definitely it is not a tautology this particular formula is not a tautology so since uh if at least one branch is ah remains open so then it is considered to be a kind of contingent kind of state so we need to ensure that this is ah and it is not unsatisf once it is not unsatisfiable then we can clearly say that it is it can be called as a contingent kind of statement so for contingency what you need to do is you have to consider two different trees one is to test for the consistency and the other one is to test the validity so the one which we have mentioned it here is on the left hand side of the board is we checked for the validity of a given formula so that is one test which we are trying to do definitely it is considered to be an invalid kind of formula so now for contingency there is another thing which we need to follow so that is now here we showed that it is not x is not unsatisfatology not a tautology ah but ah and obviously it is invalid now so this is not enough because there are it can be a contradiction it can be even contingent statement so now what you need to do here is instead of negating this formula you need to check this formula for the consistency for consistency what you will be doing is you do not take negation into consideration just you leave the formula as it is and then you start constructing a tree for this one so now this becomes like this this is x this is y so not x and y so now this also changes so now this changes to this is not p r now this further simplifies to this one so and this is the whole thing which we need to take into consideration negation of this one and s so now negation of p r q implies r is this thing p r cube and not up so now p r q simplifies to this one so now all the formulas are open i mean all the branches are open that means it is considered to be consistent kind of formula so this formula is definitely not valid it's not a tautology but definitely it is not a contradiction also because ah because at least all the branches are open and all so now for example in the process of checking the consistency you came across all the close branches and all then this formula is going to be a contradiction so the idea here is is that for contingency you need to construct two different trees first you need to check the validity of a given formula that tells us whether a given formula is a tautology or not but it doesn't tell us about whether it is a contradiction or contingent kind of statement for contingency and contradiction you need to go for another test that is the test for the consistency for consistency you don't deny the conclusion but you just leave the formula as it is and you construct the tree as in the case of that is explained on the left hand side of the board so suppose imagine a situation where in which all the branches closes that means the formula is said to be inconsistent so if it is inconsistent obviously that formula is going to be a contradiction but we did not come across that particular kind of situation at least one branch is open that is considered to be satisfiable so this formula the one which we have written on the board p r q implies r implies s is considered to be a contingent kind of formula it is not a contradiction because in the process of checking the consistency the branch does not closes the all the branches does not close so it is not a contradiction and for the tautology we already checked it in the beginning that you know negation of the formula leads to the closure of branch that all the branches that means not x is unsatisfiable that also we didn't get get it so it is not a tautology uh and not a con contradiction so it is considered to be a contingent kind of formula so here that is the way in which you can test you can check the contingency of the given formula you need to construct two different trees so here are some of the interesting and important theorems which will be using it further when we talk about something on metallogic that means theorems we'll be discussing about some important theorems later so one of the interesting theorems is this thing we are not going into the details of proving this theorems but we will just highlighting one of the important theorems which will be making use of it later in another context i will be explaining these theorems in greater detail so a completed semantic tabula for a given formula a is said to be closed if and only if a is said to be unsatisfiable so you take the negation of the formula not x and then it leads to the closure of all the branches then obviously not x is considered to be unsatisfiable if not x is going to be unsatisfiable then obviously x has to be a tautology so that is one thing which we have observed it already and the second most important thing is the soundness theorem in the context of semantic tablox method so in the context of semantic tables method soundness is like this if the tableau is closed then obviously a is said to be unsatisfiable that means you have a formula x and you construct a tableau for that and if all the branches closes then a is said to be unsatisfiable so usually is the case that soundness relates there are few things which is important in propositional logic that is uh in the con we we have not discussed in detail about something about proof theory we will be talking about talking about it in the next few classes so if something is considered to be true then if it is also provable or something is provable and it is also true then it is something is provable and it is true it is called as soundness and then if something is already true then it has to find a proof then that is considered to be completeness or not whatever is probable is true and whatever it is true has to be provable and interestingly in the prepositional logic in both the cases it happens all the true formulas are all provable and all the probable formulas obviously at the end of the day has to be true you prove lots of things but at the end of the day it is false and it doesn't make any sense to us so that means all probable formulas are true and all true formulas are provable and prepositional logic in this sense is considered to be complete completeness says that if a well formed formula is unsatisfiable then any tableau for a is obviously closed you can show that all the branches closes and one of the important corollaries of these two theorems which will be explaining it little bit later ah just we are just highlighting what we mean by these theorems and all ah a well formed formula a is considered to be satisfiable formula if and only if any tableau for a is open if at least one branch is open it is considered to be satisfiable and in the same way corollary two is this that a well-formed formula a is said to be a valid formula if and only if the tabular for not a you construct a tab graph or not a and it so happens that all the branches closes if that is the case then it is considered to be a valid formula so soundness in the context of tableau method is simply like this if alpha is tabular probable then obviously alpha is considered to be a tautology what is tableau probable so you have a given formula x and you negate the formula and it leads to all the closure of all the branches that means not x is ah false that means x has to be true so if alpha is tableau probable then obviously alpha has to be that given formula has to be a tautology if something is probable and it is true then it is called as a sound soundness and all so the tabla method is also considered to be consistent in a sense that while proving certain theorems using tablox method it never happens that you come across a you prove both alpha and not alpha and all so either it has to be the case that you have to prove only alpha or it has to be the case that you have to prove only not alpha so now that soundness of tableau method is like this if alpha is probable in the natural detection system which will be talking about a little bit later then alpha is also considered to be tautology natural detection method is the one which in which you will find this proofs of some given formulas and all the same things you can prove it with the help of semantic tableaux method as well so if something is probable then it has to be true and something is true it has to be provable then the system is considered to be complete so so far we discussed about semantic tablox method and then we ah talked about when a given formula is valid consistent satisfiable and all these things so now where we will apply this semantic tableaux method so one of the important things which we will be making use of this semantic diablox method is solving some kind of puzzles so here are some of the interesting puzzles which are cooked up by raymond smulian and raymond smolin has come up with various books all his books are quite interesting it includes lots of puzzles one of the interesting books are like this the title of the book is what is the name of the book that is that itself is considered the title of the book and the other book is lady or tiger and lots of other books where he discussed all these puzzles and he tries to solve these things using the principles basic principles of logic a few puzzles which we will take up in this class and then i will end this lecture and all so here is an interesting puzzle which is called as knights and knaves puzzles this puzzles can be solved by using semantic tablox method or it can be solved by using truth table method so the puzzle is puzzle goes like this the story behind the puzzle is like this so on some island there are two inhabitants one always speaks truth they are considered to be knights and there are some other kinds of inhabitants where they always lies for example if you ask a particular kind of inhibitant is 2 plus 2 is equal to 4 then if he is a knight he will tell the answer is yes if he is an a you will tell that is 2 plus 2 is equal to 4 if he is the name he will answer that no that means he always lies i mean whatever truths are there he'll always say it's not the case so now that is a particular kind of island that means cleverly designed in such a way that they speak only true and false everything is crystal clear black and white either something a sentence is either true or false so that is an island where you will be going so now you went to that particular island is all an imaginary kind of situation so they're all stories but a lot of things can be done with the help of this particular kind of things so now you meet two islanders let us call them a and b now you hear the first one saying that at least one of us is a name so now can you tell whether the islanders are knights or naves based on whatever information that the person is trying to give so what is happening here is is that a stranger you visited that particular kind of island and then you are trying to question this you are trying to ask some questions so that you will get definite yes or no kind of answers and with the help of those answers which you are trying to judge whether their knights are nails so for solving this kind of knights and news problems the first thing which you need to note is some kind of notice so what we are discussing is knights and news puzzles using either truth table or semantic tablox method some simple problems which will be considering and then we will move on to some kind of difficult kind of problems so now ah so this is an island so there are only two kinds of inhabitants a and b so now suppose if a is a knight then you represented it like this only ah so a is nine in the same way suppose if i write simply letter b that means b is nine suppose if you write like this not a that means a is a name and not b means b is a name so now so there are some particular kind of problems the problem here is this thing so now you are a stranger you know you visited this island now you are trying to know what they are so you ask some questions and all this is what they tell you here the first one says at least one of us is a name the first one is a so now what is the thing a says at least one of us is a navy this is the information that a gives so now you are a stranger you went to this particular kind of island now you are trying to decide whatever answers that they give you are trying to decide what type they are you don't know whether a is a knight are b is a knight and all but based on the information that they give you you will be drawing some kind of conclusion so these are some kind of reasoning problems which you can solve it with various number of numerous methods and all but since we have studied semantic tableaux method and truth table method in greater detail so we will be talking about this particular kind of method so now ah a says x some x that means you will be saying uh one of us is an a or uh some other kind of thing so this can be represented as a byte and by implication and this is represented as a if and only if x so now the first problem that we will be solving is this particular kind of thing you went to an island and then you came across two inhibitants ah instead of both are talking the first person a is saying that at least one of us is a name so from that what you can judge about a and b so now this at least one of us is a nav can be translated as it is usually translated as inclusive r so that is ah p r q suppose if they have said exactly one of us is a naive then it is considered to be an exclusive r that is either a has to be the case the b has to be the case but not both of them that gives us information about exactly one of us is a name but usually at least one of us is a naive is usually translated as inclusive r that is p r q so now this formula reduces to this particular kind of thing so now what it says at least one of us is a name so that means a is saying let me say if and only if a this one it says that at least one of us is name that means either a has to be a new or b has to be a name so now we need to construct a semantic tab blocks for this particular kind of thing then we can come to know what is a and what is b so what is what is happening here you went to a strange island you ask them they don't tell ah about anything but they will say this particular kind of thing at least one of us is a name from that you need to judge what they are so now this is the information that a is trying to give at least one of us is a name so now you need to see when this formula is going to be satisfiable that is going to give us the answer for this particular kind of thing whether a is an a or b is a knight etcetera all this information is hidden in this one so now you construct a semantic tableaux for this one for example if we have a formula x implies y so this is either x y is the case x and y is the case or not x and not y so this is the tree for this particular kind of thing so now you draw semantic tab blocks for this one this is a and not a are b not b and then the second one is not a not of not a are not b so now you further expand it then this becomes not a and not b and here so naught of not k is a amount of ah negation of disjunction is conjunction that's why you write it just below this one and now this becomes b so now we need to see whether there is any conflicting information in the branch so now you have a here and not here this branch closes and this branch remains open and now you have a here and not here this branch closes so now when this formula is going to be satisfiable i mean especially when you need to inspect the open branch the open branch is only this one in this open branch the information that we have is a and not b so you have a here and not b here that satisfies this particular kind of formula when a is t and b is false and this makes the whole formula true and this is the one which we are looking for and according to our original interpretation if you write only a and all that means a is a knight and then if you write not b then b has to be a nau so the solution of this one is this thing a is a knight and b is a name so this is the solution for this particular kind of problem so when somebody tells that at least one of us is a naive then then this has to be the solution suppose if you had said uh that actually exactly one of us is a name and all that means one is ruling out the other possibility and all so then you need to write in a different way so this will become like this so not only this is uh the case and all exactly one of the things are knights are and it is not the case that both are news and all not a and not b so this also you need to take into consideration that means one excludes the other possibility then you need to draw the semantic tablets for this one and then you can see whether or not the open branch is the one which you need to inspect then you can see the corresponding answer for this particular kind of problem so now let us consider some more examples of this sorter and we will see what can be done with this particular kind of thing so now ah let us consider that this is the one which will be considering so this is the one which which can be solved with the help of truth table method also so this is like this you have p q and not p or q is stands for at least one of us is a nau and then p implies not p or not q is the one which you need to see because p is saying this particular kind of statement so now at least if it should be by implication and that is the correct one but you have to inspect a row in which ah this formula is satisfiable that means the second row is the one which satisfies this particular kind of formula that means p has to be t and q has to be f that satisfies this particular kind of formula so using truth table method also you can solve this particular kind of problem so let us consider some more examples and then we will see what is the situation so these are some of the notations that we will be following in solving this particular kind of puzzles so you meet two kinds of people a and b suppose if a says i am a but b isn't let us consider that particular kind of thing so a is saying uh is saying this particular kind of thing i am a nave but b is not i am a but p is not that means b is a knight so now from this information what what is the one which you you are trying to get so now again you construct a semantic tablox method ah using semantic typography you construct a tree for this one so first it is a not b and then this is not of not a and b so now this is this branch closes here itself because not a and b because a and not e it closes here itself and now this can be expanded to this thing this is a not not a is a and then this is not b so now this branch also closes again this is the information that we have so a is a name and b is also considered to be any avenue suppose if you says this particular kind of thing that i am a but b is not the case so then it has to be the thing that both of them are names suppose in the second problem suppose if a says if i am a knight so is b then can we determine what are ah this thing again the same thing which will be using so with this i think we'll end this class so the other one is like this if a says a says in the second problem it is like this a says means a infinitely if this thing ah if i am a knight that means a is a knight then ah then so is b that means b is also knight and all so this is the formula we can translate that statement into this particular kind of formula a implies a implies single implication b so now again you construct a semantic tap locks method using semantic diverse method we construct a tree for this one and this becomes a implies b and then not a exactly in the negation of this one so now this further expands to not a and b because a and not a this branch closes and then this branch remains open now this is a and not b so this branch closes now open branches are the ones which you need to inspect that means you have a here that means a is a knight and b is a knight that means suppose if you went to an island a strange island and you ask them a particular kind of inhabitant replies by saying that if i am a knight then so is b and from that information if that has to be translated into appropriate language of propositional logic then this is the formula with which it can be translated into and then you constructed a tree and then you are observing the open branches and then the open branches corresponds to the answer that is a has to be knight and b has to be a knight to satisfy this particular kind of statement is statement so in this way suppose if you are making some kind of sample statistical survey that how many number of people are knights how many number of people are nayus etc then you need to translate the given formula in appropriately into the language of prepositional logic and then you constructed semantic tablox method and then you can see whether or not whether they are knights or naves so let us consider one last example and then here we have three inhabitants a b c ah one of them each of whom can be a knight it can be neighbor it can be it cannot be both and all another important thing which you need to note is is that a liar cannot tell truths and all if that is the case then it leads to a big problem which is called as last paradox so that thing which we will try to avoid a liar cannot tell truth lr always lies so here is the information that we have we asked a and b and then he is talking about a particular kind of thing a is saying b is a name so now this particular kind of thing which i will describe it and then maybe you can solve it in your free time so now a says that b is a name that is the first sentence that we have in this problem and now b says a and c are of same type a and c are of same type who is saying this thing ah b is saying that a and c are of same type either it should be this particular kind of thing or you can even take into consideration b as not a and not c so this satisfies uh that both are knights that means they are of the same type and the other one satisfies this thing not a and not c you can take that also into consideration but not both of them so so they are of same type and all so this satisfies this particular kind of formula now we are trying to determine what is cnr quickly we can draw a semantic diabolox method for this one a and not b and then this is not a and b not of not b is b this is the first formula that we checked it so now the second formula is this thing b and a and c cannot be not of a and c same information which you write it here that is b a and c and not b not of a and c sometimes the branch closes even before itself we need not have to go do anything in all so this b and not b here this branch closes here itself and now this is not a and not c since a and not a is a this branch also closes so now this a and c simplifies to this one since a and not a is a this branch also closes so now ah b and not b so what is the problem here one second so there is some problem with the representation of this one so we'll talk about it in the next class so there is the translation seems doesn't seem to be correct at all so so we need to translate it properly so then we will get the answer so ah in this class what we have done is uh we have talked about some of the definitions of semantic tablox method somewhat some of the definition in the context of symmetric tablox method and then we have applied this semantic tableaux method in solving some of the interesting puzzles that is these are the puzzles which are cooked up by raymond smullion so these are all called as knights and knaves puzzles in knights and names puzzles what we'll be doing is you are a stranger you you went to the island and then you ask them what type of inhibit are you so suppose they reply that based on the replay that you get from them and you are trying to convert those information into appropriately into the language of prepositional logic and then we are judging what kind of what kind of type he is suppose if they say both are nails both are knights etcetera and all and based on that information you translate it into the language of propositional logic and then we are trying to handle it properly with the help of propositional logic in the next class we will be seeing some more examples in the context of semantic tab blocks method and what we'll be doing is we'll be translating some of the english language sentence appropriately into the language of prepositional logic and then we will see whether the argument follows or not you | nptelhrd | UC640y4UvDAlya_WOj5U4pfA | 2015-03-18 | Creative

Hindu god Vishnu and the central figure of the Ramayana a Sanskrit epic that integrates performance arts with stories driven by ethical values the epic text is dated to first millennium BCE and ram leela as an adaptation of those stories most Ram Leela's in North India are based on the 16th century secondary work on Ramayana Ram Sharan man is a verse form composition in the regional vernacular language Hindi by Tulsidas these verses are used as dialogues in traditional adaptations open-air productions are staged by local Ram Lila committee's Sam itis and funded entirely by the villagers or local neighborhoods in urban areas the core team of performance artists trained for the dance drama but the actual performance attracts impromptu participants from the audience and villagers this art form as a part of the Hindu culture found for many gods and goddesses but those of Rama Durga as Durga Puja and Krishna as rasa Lila are the most popular and annual event in the Indian subcontinent the RAM Leela festivities were declared by UNESCO as one of the intangible cultural heritage of humanity in 2008 ram leela is particularly notable in historically important hindu cities of Ayodhya Varanasi Brindavan Almora Satna and Madhubani cities in Uttar Pradesh Uttarakhand Bihar and Madhya Pradesh the epic and its dramatic play migrated into Southeast Asia in the first millennium CE II and Ramayana based ram leela is a part of performance arts culture of indonesia particularly the hindu society of bali myanmar cambodia and Thailand in the 19th and 20th centuries with the movement of Asian Diaspora into European colonies as indentured servants the cultural celebration of ram-leela is now found in many parts of the world topic etymology and nomenclature ram-leela is a compound sanskrit words rama a vishnu avatar and lila play game sport according to james lotta felt the word connotes a-- playful drama about rama where it is both entertainment in a deeply serious religious act that has spiritual significance to both the actors in the audience a literal translation of Ramlila states Norvin hein it's Rama's sport where the term sport is best understood in a theological context according to the Vaishnava thought the Supreme Being Vishnu has no need to create the empirical world he just descends as an avatar and manifests in the empirical world to spontaneously joyfully disinterestedly play a part or engage in sports the teams or companies of actors that train together and perform ram-leela are called mandalas topic history performance arts are an ancient Indian tradition with the Sanskrit Hindu texts Natya Shastra explaining the importance of performing arts as follows Nattie's astra 1.14 2:15 ram-leela is one of many performance arts related festivities within Hinduism Ramayana epic is dated to the first millennium BCE and is one of the oldest Idaho says genre of Indian literature it is unclear however as to when the first performances of ram leela were held the first enactment of ram char at mendes by 16th century tool Sita's is undocumented but according to the tradition his student mega Bhagat started the RAM chart Manas based ram leela in 1625 according to noir van Hien a professor of divinity and of religious studies specializing on in dalla ji ram leela were in vogue before 1625 at least in North India between 1200 and 1500 seee but these were based on Valmiki's Ramayana according to richard schoeck nur the contemporary ram leela has deeper roots as it incorporates both the teachings of ancient Sanskrit texts and modern theatre techniques according to John Brockington a professor of Sanskrit specializing on Indian epics Ram Lila is likely an ancient tradition of India because it is generally accepted by scholars that written manuscripts emerged later in Indian religions and ancient texts were largely a product of oral tradition thus not only Rama Leela but all ancient epics of India must very likely have been recited and transmitted by bards and students in RAM Leela like manner verbally from one generation to another and consistently preserved across a wide geographic region by rules of acting by many teams further states Brockington the Hindu epics are too vast with the Ramayana containing twenty thousand verses in the Mahabharata with one hundred thousand verses to have been preserved over two thousand years without being written down and without reciting and acting out it is therefore unlikely that the RAM Leela tradition emerged only in the modern era some colonial era indologist suggested ads brockington that the Ramayana is a modern era text but this hypothesis has since been abandoned because the existence of the Hindu Ramayana has been attested in Jainism literature Ramayana reliefs in cave temples such as ellora caves and Southeast Asian temple carvings and culture by the 1st millennium CE II according to Noor van Hien the contemporary RAM Leela started once the Manas text of tulsidas had been composed in the 16th century however states Hine a dense drama form of Ramayana enactment flourished at least in the mathura region much earlier possibly around the early centuries of the Common Era by the vation of ism tradition of Hinduism he traces the evidence for this in the Kathakali Yakshagana Kathak and other indian classical dances which share segments themes and styles with ram leela james princeps wrote an eyewitness description of varanasi ram leela festivities in 1825 while h Gnaeus wrote another from Ghazipur in 1905 Norvin hein described the ram leela of 1949 and 1950 a period of socio political turmoil in india after the british india partition of the subcontinent into india and pakistan Hine reported his observations from Rama Leela in Mathura topic description the ram-leela is the story of Hindu god Rama from his birth the epic recites his childhood along with those of others who are major characters in it such as sita lakshmana ravana and others it includes chapters on the marriage of Sita and Rama the Exile of Rama because Dharma requires him to give up his throne Sita and Lakshmana joining him in the Exile their journeys through India and they meeting revered Rishi's of Hinduism the abduction of Sita by demon Ravana the sorrow of Rama and Lakshmana their hopelessness how they creatively built an army from other living beings in the forest such as monkeys their journey to Lanka to confront Ravana the battle between the good and evil the destruction of Ravana the return of Rama to Ayodhya and his King and the life thereafter RAM Leela festivals play this story it is organized in numerous villages towns and neighborhoods during the autumn Navratri festival season which typically falls in September or October the festival is both a religious and cultural event bringing the population together States UNESCO without distinction of caste religion or age the audience such as the villagers participate spontaneously playing roles or help out in setting and cleaning up the stage making costumes and upkeep of the ram-leela area traditionally organized in a makeshift open-air theatre at night it is usually staged by amateur acting teams drawn from all segments of the society singers and musicians men and women elderly and youth play different parts sing the verses to music recite dialogues the recitations and the narrative of the play are usually based on Rama chera Dominus the dialogue is improvised and often responsive to audience reactions dhol drummers and other musicians participate the atmosphere is usually festive and free with the audience whistling and commenting as the story proceeds the stage is surrounded by food stalls and larger productions have a fare nearby surrounding areas temporarily transform into bazaars to cater to the audience a committee semaa tea heads the preparation in many rural areas traditional venues for ram-leela have developed over the centuries and hundreds of people will often make the trip nightly to attend the play by walking over miles like a religious pilgrimage in earlier times actors typically don't get paid or get paid little for their efforts but they're provided free food and accommodation by the villagers or committee performance costs are usually financed by fundraising in the community often by self-organized ram-leela committees a ram-leela is not a simple play acted out in a drama theater but it is structured to encourage and allow the audience to participate in major productions the audience walk with the actors from one site to another they chant or Co recite passage they immerse themselves as minor or significant characters in the play while the major roles are played by a troupe of artists the audience cheers when the good gets the upper hand they are sorrowful when a wrong happened such as the kidnapping of Sita and her imprisonment against her will by demon Ravana they participate in the burning of the effigies and the community welcome during the return of Rama back to Ayodhya it is theologically an immersion experience topic regional variations today several regions have developed their distinctive form of ram-leela Uttar Pradesh itself has numerous variants of presentation styles most prominent among them is that of Ramnagar Varanasi which is a 31-day event while most ram-leela elsewhere are typically abridged 10-day event climaxing in Dussehra other variants include the pantomime style as visible in John keys or tableaus pageants where colorful John keys and pageants depicting scenes from the life of Lord Rama are taken out through the city according to a 2008 UNESCO report the most notable ram-leela traditions are those observed annually at Ayodhya Ram Nagar and Varanasi Brindavan Almora Satna and Madhubani another variant is the operatic style incorporates elements of folk theatre elements generously while the traditional style remains where the couplets of Rama chariot man is not only act as dialogues but also as chorus as well and lastly there is the RAM Leela staged by professional troops called mandalas many urban remilia's now have dialogues written in kadhi Bohle or in local dialects but the treatment remains melodramatic as always to achieve maximum impact amidst an audience that knows the story by heart but watches the enactment nevertheless for religious fervor and also for its spectacle value making ram leela an important event in the religious as well as social calendar of not only in small town and villages but also many big cities just other folk theatre form of India like Jatra of bengal topic themes are often interwoven in the script ahead relevance and sometimes humour is used to offer a critic or commentary over current happenings topic ram-leela at Ramnagar varanasi the tradition of staging the ram-leela had Ramnagar varanasi which lies across the Ganges River from the Hindu pilgrimage city of Varanasi was started in CA 1830 by maharaja unit narayan singh kashi Naresh with the help of pandit Laxmi Narayan Pandey's family present vyasji of the RAM Leela of Ramnagar it rose in popularity during the reign of his successor Maharaja is vari Prasad Singh and received continued patronage from the subsequent kings of the royal house of benares to create a participatory environmental theatre site-specific theatre on a grand scale where attendance ranges from few thousands to one hundred thousand for others the RAM Leela is a cycle of plays which recounts the epic story of Lord Rama as told in ramcharitmanas the version of the Ramayana penned by Tulsi das the play sponsored by the Maharaja are performed in Ramnagar every evening for 31 days the Ramnagar ram leela has held over 31 days where the entire rama chair at Manas is recited instead of usual 10 4 abridged production it is known for its lavish sets dialogues and visual spectacle in Ramnagar a number of stages have been constructed by the town each named after the major sites of events in the ramayana epic the permanent structures in several temporary structures service set to represent locations like Ashok Vatika Janak pari penchev Ooty Lanka etc during the performance hence the entire city turned into a giant open-air set an audience moves along with the performers with every episode to the next locale as the play progresses the actors and audience move from one place to another they joined the chorus giving the feel that the audience is participating in as a part of the play preparations begin weeks before its commencement even the audition process is traditionally attended to by the Maharaja where Swarup is literally divine embodiment the various characters of the Ramayana are chosen from amongst local actors important roles are often inherited by families for example the role of Ravana was held by same family from 1835 to 1990 and roles of Hanuman Jatayu and Janata traditionally belonged to one Vyasa family when the Dussehra festivities are inaugurated with a colorful pageant Kashi Naresh rides an elephant at the head of the procession then resplendent in silk and brocade he inaugurates the month-long folk theater of ram-leela at Ramnagar during the period hundreds of sadhus called Ramayana's descend into the town to watch and recite the ram chart Manas texts many an audience carry a copy of the Rama chair at Manas simply called Manas and follow stanza after stanza after the characters delivering their dialogue the legend and the festival as a part of their spiritual practice they do not go to RAM Leela they immerse in it during the course of the performance there is a double transformation of the space within the city as it first transforms from a city to theater and then to mythic geography as the scale of the performance has gradually increased to mythic proportions coming down only in the end when Rama finally returns home this is when the Raja himself becomes part of the theatre there by incorporating local element into the story itself in the end as the swoops actors depart they take off their Garland's and offer it to royal family members and give darshan to audience after the performance one last time at the end of each episode lila nrt is performed chants of par har Mahadev or bola Raja ramchandra ki jai resound in the air as the audience join in thereafter a John Key literally a peep or glimpse tableaus of frozen iconic moments from the Mondas is presented which not only distill and crystallized the message of the story for the audience but is also appreciated for its spectacular effect though several local legends exist regarding the beginning of this ram leela including one of which suggests that it was first staged at a nearby village chota Mirza / as the one at Varanasi was disrupted due to the floods in the Ganges from where it evolved to the present ram leela which is by far the most traditional rendition of the Ramayana and has been a subject of study by scholars from all over the world for many decades now on the last day the festivities reach a crescendo as Rama vanquishes the demon king Ravana over a million pilgrims arrive annually for the vast processions and performances organized by Kashi Naresh topic Geographic spread over the centuries ram-leela has evolved into a highly venerated art form and has traveled to far corners of the globe through Indian diaspora not as AXA cultural recovery rather as fresh expressions of a persistent faith today Rama Leela is staged in most countries that with immigrant Hindu populations from the Indian subcontinent including that from India Nepal and Pakistan outside the Indian subcontinent this includes Fiji Mauritius South Africa Canada Guyana Suriname Trinidad and Tobago Great Britain the Netherlands the United States and Australia some Asian cultures have similar drama traditions based on the Ramayana for instance the phra lok phra lamb locke and lamb are the Laotian names for Lakshman and RAM respectively folk play of Laos in northeastern Thailand the Rama's story is also enacted in another popular art form as a nighttime fire shadow or daytime puppet show this is known as telepathic ethu in Kerala Ravana Chaya in Odisha Nong SB ek Tom in Cambodia Nong yai in Thailand and weighing per WA in Indonesia topic references topic bibliography topic external links ram-leela at Ramnagar fort

MzVJOtelJiA | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MzVJOtelJiA | Between2Wheels Podcast Ep. 62 - 2020 Harley-Davidson Mid-Year Disappointment | welcome to the between two wheels podcast we talked about all things on in between two wheels I'm your host Johnny Reb blocking y'all on my co-host Justin Chang Chong bird and uncle Xu Xiao can hear that nice scrape in the bottom of the barrel - yeah what that's some funny um for the non Mandarin speaking people Justin is called ginger and Ken's called Johnny beast this episode's being brought to you by get lowered cycles your source for all the parts your Harley and now Indian need today we are talking about Harley's 2020 mid-year release what's going on guys that mid-year release should be in quotes Yeah right equites and it shouldn't be called a release it should be called disappointment anyways how you guys doing going don't do a tire job yeah that's a dangerous way to yeah that's a play will suffocate wait who's tired is she hot is he hot yes are they huh yeah non-binary folks come on Oh what's going on nothing you're hydrating I'm still hydrating yeah I like this week so I'm trying to not die this weekend yeah but you're not racing this weekend right I'm training training so yeah the the weekend before the race I try to go out and ride pretty pretty aggressively yeah yeah to try to get as much you know practice in as possible now are you riding at the same location no unfortunately not they didn't have any sort of thing posted so we'll just be going out to Czar's but it'll be a brand and ha so and miss Berg are going out there too so they're gonna kind of go do their own little puting around when me and Skylar go in right other ways how you doing kid I'm doing all right nothing nothing really going on I'm getting back on my diet so that's good going back in your die right before your cruise yeah right yeah don't that's the more no I know I need to yeah yeah must um boost all up from it so so you have to get your stomach right so then you can get it all up on the cruise that makes sense and that way I can get coronavirus on top of it all if you get that get some food poison going on on top of that right lucid man yes coming back looking like Brad plant pale and skinny maybe a little bit more fed than that I mean you know I didn't get the drink package so oh liquid diet at least maybe I yep the fact that it's 24/7 all-you-can-eat pretty much whatever you want to eat oh yeah oh it's heaven I think we get like 15 drinks a day or something like that per person that's a good amount and and then of course we both have it so my wife doesn't drink that much yeah really so if I want to get really really up I can't so you're gonna have about twenty seven drinks a day it's something like that I mean I don't know if you think about it that's not a whole lot it is I mean it it it is it sounds like a lot and it kind of is but it's not if you spread it over the whole day you know you have a couple of Moses for breakfast you know Tracy you know a couple drinks for lunch and then dinner in the evening yes so Tracy and I we did the drink package on our cruise but you don't drink oh and I was only able to hit my max once yeah oh I mean its goals every day I was trying to hit it that day but I mean most time I was getting like maybe five drinks yeah I was averaging about eight to ten when I was in Jamaica no goals me and I'm gonna but we didn't have a limit so I didn't have a I don't have a goal so to be good I checked the weather today for Belize and Cozumel and mahogany bed of all this yeah yep so it's like 85 degrees every day and then 80 degrees every night damn and then pretty much the Gulf is always like 70 degrees yeah so have you guys been on Harley Davidsons website since the release I saw Maxwell's video when he went on it but I have not personally been on it now so I will say the suck factor of Harley Davidsons website has decreased by like 5% oh wow that's drastic it is moving on yeah so something else that I found during my you know scouring of their website was they have completely changed how they are describing their bikes you know before you go click motorcycles they didn't say Sportster Softail Hill Taurus Evo no now they have it set up in two categories so they have the street category which is now all the Sportsters and the street 750 I also notice that and I don't know if this happened during the release they just cut it or if this happened at the 2020 model your release mm-hmm no more Street 500 hmm only a 750 now I mean that makes sense really the 507 those are so close together as far as you know the engine and there are they close price-wise to the fiber correctly and maybe like a thousand yeah $1500 difference but but yeah that's kind of cool seeing I was like okay so now they're trying to actually copy Indian I was gonna say Indian but they do have the electric category with the livewire then the cruiser category on this one confused me at first was like what the happening all the soft tails are in there except the Heritage that makes sense the Heritage Classic is now considered a touring bike even though it's still on a soft L frame okay so yeah is does the Heritage Classic come with the leather bags yes yes sealed and lockable bags and it does come with cruise control and it has the whole tangible windshield and the 114 in it I wonder if that's why I don't know it happens to be the exact same price as the Electra Glide standard standard yeah I think that makes sense because between cruisers and touring it definitely falls more into the touring category yeah I were thinking two words better than it cruises probably too much bike for cruising yeah I can see that yeah I think you're not doing the right kind of riding as well you're not doing the right kind of cruising yeah that's what I told her yeah I saw these commenters today you can't be ripping it up on a bagger well then you know not a ride man hidden flight riding is a lot cooler when your bike is shooting sparks Yeah right and then they they the touring families all the touring bikes and then they have trikes now they took the CIO's and actually just dumped all of them into the touring family except for the trike and then that one's in the trike family so at least it's easier coming sense everything yeah I mean it kind of makes sense at the same time I don't know I felt like the Seaview was always kind of it's it really is kind of its own category I mean it's a whole different level when you're buying a bike yeah but if they're gonna do that they need to call the CVO category what it is for ballers only right you know I mean I never saw as white dude yeah I never saw it as a separate category like especially like to the uninformed like if you walk in dealership they're really not gonna be able to the difference between them oh if you were to just look at them yeah unless you knew the same schemes yeah you you wouldn't know yeah you'd be like oh that one has cool paint yeah that's you know at first glance it's all you're gonna see so no I think that makes sense yeah I kind of like seeing how they updated their website a little bit the fact that they're now copying Indian you know here's the thing I mean if it works it's about time Indian has been copying harley-davidson for all these years it's good to get one over on yeah slightly improved website five percent five percent but so I hope everyone has had a chance to go check out John Maxwell's video for the 20/20 mid-year quotes mid-year release but if you haven't go check it out he hits on the same three items were about to talk about and that's the bike updates updates updates updates so they released Tuesday I think is that one yeah yeah sure earlier this week yeah the 30th anniversary Fat Boy now can you actually point this out so I went ahead and snatch the picture they they look so similar because I was looking at I was like I've seems like I've seen this thing before like this doesn't look unique yeah so it's pretty much the exact as the 2016 Fat Boy s yeah so the S had all blacked out parts and it had the upgraded motor I think it had the 103 in it or whatever the final 107 107 yeah no no 105 109 would have been a 5-1 103 7 1 1 there we go they had the 110 in it damn but but trust us guys we know we're talking about we are highly untrained unprofessional my lockers right here between two O's podcasts but I will say this the paint scheme looks good the whole thing with the wheels I just it kills me I hate the wheels done well for one I hate I hate the highboy wheels I usually wheel no I love the solid rim yeah I don't love that but you have all that black except for that one little chimey Green Drive dude you're a little lip yeah ok now you brought this up in our little og chat just paint that you know just powder coat the same way you powder-coated the engine pieces yeah how the bronze yeah that of a static color and put it over on the wheel that have been slick yeah just I mean just how on the the 2013 6 got our 16 it's got the chrome and the chrome it makes sense on that me to bronze bronze and then leave that yeah because the engine is bronze air cleaner has bronze the tank emblem has bronze right and then you have the you know the chrome lip around your wheels now I'm sure it was a big cost savings but man I I'd be okay paying $5 extra if that was matched well matched or just all black or all black yeah I mean even all even all black then they wouldn't have to do any tape off there yeah true I do like seeing over the four years from the 2016 to the 2020 look at the rear fender it takes out that old geezer looking rear fender with a little bobtail piece and I like that one better yeah I like the older style better I like that fan the older fender better but the newer headlight and front fender yeah yeah I just I never liked that fender he's like if they if they would have extended that fender all the way down and not put that little little flare of tail on there I would have liked that more I just look I understand people are all about nostalgia and and that's what the heritage is for yeah well yeah the Heritage Classic yeah but I don't know the fat boys supposed to be the big innovative motorcycle for Harley and no now it's not now yeah so but to y'all's point I definitely love the new headlight on there I guess that's so much better look yeah it looks a whole lot better is that the same headlight as the road King no no so that's that's more similar to the Fat Bob 114 or the Fat Bob deadlight it's not the rectangular no no it's around it's a round headlight oh is it oh just a just a set oh yes seven inch headlight with the shroud yeah okay that for some reason it looked like the shredder the Shroud makes it look like it's a wreck from this from this angle that we're looking at yeah but no it's it's it's circular I would say it's closer to the breakout than it is to the Fat Bob but still not not breakout issue so moving on then they came out with the Road Glide special with Eagle high limited edition paint now did you see that you helped harley-davidson with their naming scheme the eagle eye paint job just doesn't sound where I call it the Boomer special oh man that's pretty accurate it's funny but I just don't know if I can agree because I just don't think boomers would go for something that loud the color they ate up at elastics they ate up the blue one with the goddamn eagle across the front of it you have that blue it's not mustard yellow no that is two day old urine oh god is that a is that Humvee piss bottle yellow actually pretty close you know exactly what I'm talking about yeah now Jon made a observation about the Harley Davidson name plate being on the top of the saddle bag and I will agree I think it looks horrible up there yeah is it oh is that a the actual like that's there's not a decal no that's paint that's part of the paint package okay it's like a 2,000 dollar upgrade yeah me but it's numbered no I thought they weren't numbered these are these are numbered no I thought they weren't numbered but they were only making seven hundred fifty of them period but they're not numbered no these are numbered the 30th anniversary Fat Boy is not and all of the five year anniversary are not numbered that's why they don't have special resale value on those but this one is going to be honored and you know one per dealership or something like that yeah one or two maybe two if you're in really big deals like I'm sure Laidlaw will probably get like two yeah you know things like that Cowboys already got theirs in yeah I should go look at that way I can actually see what it looks like because you know Harley's pictures are terrible that was yeah I was just up there yesterday and I didn't didn't see it I didn't bother to look had to go spending all my gift cards oh yeah before they expired so Cowboys has their own own rewards oh yeah I still now and it expires every month yeah so that's why I got a cost like 80 bucks off of my cruise control because of that I've got an awesome new hat from home look at that yeah new gloves spending all your money he gave if it's gonna disappear I'm gonna spend yeah yeah and then the most important update that they made was they brought back the CVO Road Glide in an only one color though sand dune now it is a good looking color I like it but they saw how pissed off the world was when they did the no CVO Road Glide for the 2020 model year oh yeah so they had to bring it back I mean literally there's nothing that's been done to this bike other than this paint job though yeah bigger wheel the shrouds and take well I'm saying from last year's yeah yeah no I know yeah it's the same yest yeah so I mean I kind of like the little I guess it's not is it a full chin spoiler that comes up to the sides I don't know what they call it but I think everyone knows what you're talking about yeah I kind of I kind of like that but it's same time I kind of don't it looks kind of weird I think it looks good but just limits so many things like you can't put lowers on it you can't oh yeah you can't put it doesn't have a traditional crash bar on it no it's got the engine guard whatever mustache bar not mustache it's the chopped yeah but so yeah a very hugely you know or to say it like Trump huge Newt huge I mean it's highly impressive what they did for the mid German yeah yeah super SuperDuper awesome yep like it nailed that pain again and they had a few thousand of the CBO rogue lines from last year laying around so they said oh we have this new paint yeah let's just spray it in this color and call it a brand new and put a mid-year look yeah and charge $40,000 for it nailed it feel like they had some of that battleship gray leopard or just like took a couple dots of white now look a little bit of white to someone Pat in this color what do we call it 2020 so if if our listeners don't understand what we're doing here we're being sarcastic because this is a lame major we could have had the pan America get dropped look at the Bronx go in now we get paint jobs on two road glides and a fat boy a fat boy named Chuck yeah yeah which looks like the same one from 20 minutes to 2016 yeah nailed it well it may be motorcycle style goes on that four to five year rotation whereas clothing goes on like a 20 year rotation mmm so maybe they're just a lot faster than the fashion industry to be trendsetters we can call it that so yeah so I mean the black that looks and then come back pretty soon the solid black oh wait that's what you're buying yes everybody black on black on black now I did go in and start looking at some of the parts that they released now they kind of been sprinkling these parts throughout January and now this I will say that I'm not upset with the the parts and accessories that they they came out with so they have these new handlebars now don't give me for bringing up new handlebars I'm not buying these Wow yet I do think that they look nice the new fused handlebars now they come in black or chrome and they have a high height and a low height so the fused handlebar which is the higher version is a 13.3 inch rise 5.1 inch pullback with tip to tip width is 39 inches there are some pretty wide bars how wide were your window bars 39 30 miles you're say yeah okay so I was thinking I was like this has to be at least a three foot table here yeah and I'm like yeah that's out there just his favorite handlebars yeah by the way they'll I'm gonna be selling a bunch of stuff if anyone needs bars I have stock Road King Stach Road King special times two and I have some custom bars so if you have if you have any desires for bars for touring bikes and softails hit me up in the DM yeah cuz I'm market for stock handlebars a surprise well some people change out their bars and they go to sell their bike they want to put the stock bars back on but they already threw them out yep hey fair enough yeah anyways that's the tall ones and I will say they actually look pretty good little look I don't hate them yeah I like this yep that's just it's different the geometry is very clean up at the top yeah then we moved to the low now if you try to do a Google search on this you have to spell it right which is the wrong way of spelling low come on but it's the fuse Hannah barred low L oh I mean they can't smoke pack right here they're on tour pack that's truth always PA k yeah and soft L is one word yeah but these are the lower ones obviously a 10.1 inch rise six and a half inch pullback and 35 inch width it's pretty close to stock isn't it actually yes yeah so I just look different yeah but I will say that there they still look at me don't hate them yeah I've seen a whole lot worse and then Oh God the 80-grit line now 80-grit that's what they called it and of course my autocorrect fixed 80 grit it's actually one word because you know Harley because Harley yeah but they have new floorboards brake pedal or brake pedal pad and passenger pegs they kind of missed out a bunch of stuff here but you all know the Kuryakin Mariah the riots right it's just like that exactly the same but those are just like bum kings and yeah yeah Flo Motorsports so for four hundred dollars you can get either Chrome or black floorboards but they mm what star the brake pedals 60 60 60 65 bucks I mean that's not terrible I mean so you know for some of the stuff I look at it and look from the Kuryakin for $25 oh but that's Kuryakin and won't fit on your American bike brings fi you down you know I when I look at some of those prices I mean I kind of get it you know machining is expensive you know the all the programming that goes into it but like I said you can go to Korea can you get the same a similar looking one for almost half and probably not sacrifice any sort of performance no no I mean I had no problems with any of mine no I'm curious how this is gonna change once like aluminum 3d printing becomes affordable because I watched a video they're doing it on in motocross they're developing through 3d printing so like if they want to change like the chain guard or something like that they'll 3d print it first and see how it fits I mean they actually do it with metal too and what's crazy about 3d printing metal is you can arrange the molecules in different ways to make it stronger and or weaker in certain points it's like if you have like a block of aluminum like say for example like a rectangular prism and you want to bend this way like up and down but an out side to side to side they can do that that's dope and once that becomes like affordable in mass manufacturing because the reason these are so expensive because you have to take a block of high-grade aluminum that's like 12 by 12 and you grind all of it away it's called a subtractive manufacturing yeah well as in the other way you could literally make that part for just that material you know I bet that they have the metal 3d printing already fully scaled in China because they built a thousand bed hospital for the coronavirus people in two weeks yep yeah it was all preassembled though it was I mean that the hotel downtown in San Antonio that thing was built in what two months yeah because it was all preassembled off-site and he's coming stacking like Legos Legos yeah yeah so I mean it's still impressive they did they'd actually like had the majority of it done in like six days yeah so I mean it's still impressive but it's also it also feels kind of sketchy at the same time yeah it takes two weeks just to get a contractor to call you back looks like I mean I watched one video from Asia I don't know it was in China or not and there was like a 50 by 50 sinkhole in the middle of the Road and in less than 24 hours or some ridiculously small amount it was filled and they were driving on it again you see when they turned the train station it was like in one of their big downtown Metro I'm talking like a full sized like Grand Central Station type train station and it was in the way of something that they wanted to do somewhere else so they literally just like built tracks and picked it up and turned it 90 degrees and set it back down I swear to god you go look it up and they also replace like an interstate bridge in 48 hours yes like I remember that it was like a six-lane overpass and it was they had some sort of issue with it so instead of like tearing it down there on the spot they basically like put a truck underneath it cut off on both ends load on the truck took it out brought a new one in installed it and it was done in two days but you know when you have a quarter of the population and you go hey think of ways to fix this yeah I can kill you you're saying is communism works communism breeds awesome construction of it yeah moving on to the next line that they came with it now I actually kind of like this one the title of it though taking it back to my video game Oh The Avengers line the endgame line now they have grips footpegs shift and brake lever I said levers it's the the thing tips the part that connects it to the actual shift linkage and the actual brake pedal goes onto these whatever that's called well that's their car to the left it's a break it's the actual brake lever and you have your brake pad yeah which is that part yeah there's your brake pads when they go against your rotors yeah well I think of brake covers so I think of what's on my handle in your handlebar levers these are the ones that set your feet yeah so they're just clarify and then they also have pegs like so to get a new lever in a new pad would be two hundred and thirty dollars yeah yeah I like these better than the last one 80 grit yeah so I'll say that I actually like the look now I don't know what color it is that's like a gunmetal yes that's the part I like yeah I think you can do all of your controls or your foot controls and everything in the same color and matching it's cool but not for that price mm-hmm I said it grips for a hundred and thirty dollars and they're not heated mm-hmm which by the way by the way I have to eat crow here I talked a whole lot of about a former og that had that I installed his heated grips on and they're amazing oh yeah they're they're pretty awesome aren't they oh god no you don't have heating grips to you know you're missing out I know it's it's life-changing it it really is like I'm not gonna lie I was looking at some of the other stuff like maybe I should get a heated seat like I don't know well when I spoke with Ryan Urlacher he has the grips and the seat and then he only has his vest that he wears that's heated in 30 degree weather and not there in Yakima yeah that's in Washington State folks just in case nope but yeah I'm like damn but again I like this line the endgame line I think it looks nice and even though the prices are horrible someone in China's gonna copy this yeah and so we'll take a look give it a few months yeah but again at least their design departments coming out with some cool lookin oh wait till Kuryakin rips them off oh yeah totally and then the final line puts the streamliner wait that's we already that's been on the bikes actually it hasn't what they added shown so let's say those look exactly I swear to god I I just gave those to freaking gtz powder coating so you can around with them so these are the same ones no on the wet on Harleys website they call them they matched the streak light special they also matched the Road Glide specials stock but the Road Glide special the streak light special only have the writer of floorboards that are like this everything else was that's why they did it they had after them dos yeah so but they have heated grips hey heated grips your house cool damp $279 yeah ha awesome are they I mean my heated grips are awesome are they $280 us I don't know well this is built into the price of the bike yes oh yeah I mean I paid for them one way or another so going along with parts I just I'm curious if they I mean I'm sure they have but I'd like to see me being an analyst I'd like to see the numbers as you know how much they sell of this really expensive these really expensive parts as opposed to what they could sell if they were just like a distributor of other parts like if they if you walked into hard leadership and you had the entire Kuryakin catalog there in store mmm I granted their profit margins not gonna be as high as the stuff that they're making but if you can flip more product and essentially be making more money yeah that's how I see it yeah but I mean like I said I'm sure they've ran the numbers and I'm not correct or they're just dumb but I don't know I've I see some company or not some company some dealerships out in California that kind of dabble in that like they'll have like a full legend suspension line they'll carry the the fairings and stuff in store I'm just curious why we don't see that Morman like the only thing that I've really seen I did notice just this week when I was there they do have some Kuryakin stuff okay at Cowboys and of course was a couple years ago they started carrying the custom dynamics yeah they've carried custom items they carry rock form yeah they got the rock form so I mean they're just obviously they're pushing their own brand yeah but because I mean I think I only saw like four or five Kuryakin things on the wall hmm but yeah you're right you think that if they were to be more competitively priced against what I can go online and get yeah but honestly though they're actually on some of their stuff they're actually in line with some of your Joker machine parts yeah but I want to pay more for a Joker machine that I do for Harley because they're special and different and they're not going to be on yes it's like when you were like when Arlen Ness was really hitting it big yeah with the chopper scene mm-hmm I mean you know I mean still go look at Arlen Essen you're looking at six hundred dollars for a set of floorboards yeah I just got a clutch cover from them and it's for it was for our dollars that's ridiculous holy but they're doing something that no one else does they're doing the see-through parts with that don't suck like other people do see-through part exactly if it's a if it's a part that there's something that the other ones aren't doing or it's a completely custom line I mean I kind of see it yeah but Arlen Ness is quality control is phenomenal well yeah I mean and Arlen Ness is all built here yeah you know all of these things are coming from China yeah exactly I know people don't like putting Chinese parts on their Harley's to tell you this but the majority of your bike is made from Chinese parts don't want to break the news but it's put together here in America oh don't worry you can't get coronavirus from it unless it's been washed but I when I when I have bought Harley accessories they are not the quality that you are paying for no no not at all if we go and get you know was it brass balls choppers they sell actually pretty reasonably priced but somewhat higher priced but it's high-quality you go to Arlen Ness you're getting a high quality part and they also have better return policies I've never had of dad hired Marlon did heart does Harley have policy yet you can't return it that's their policy that's why yeah I mean even if shit's up you don't you can't hardly take it back yeah I just think that at some point and I think Justin has said it on the show before but you vote with your dollar oh absolutely so if people stop buying the overpriced under quality parts from Harley they're gonna do one of two things one up the quality which we know that's not going to happen and to lower the price which they could do yeah because they are mass producing these overseas and the profit margin of these have to be massive oh for sure not 100% they're probably 95% but a profit joke so so what do you what are your thoughts about this I mean I mean I'm gonna have to echo everything you just said for example I was in there the other day in the dealership to their day and the guy walks and he was looking at at the lights that they have the little engine kit and he was asking like how much they were it was $200 for the lights it was another I think 150 or 200 for the controller and then it was three hours of labor to put him on Wow I was like dude are you serious you're and the dude is like yeah let's do it Oh what's I mean there's certain things that I won't touch but LED lights man LED lights it's double-sided tape it's double size eight times crew can maybe get to put it on the battery it's a screw yeah Wow Garber tariffs there Kuryakyn lizard lights dude I was telling kid yeah I mean it's really what they exactly look like it was so funny when we were at Lone Star we did quite a bit of riding at night and I told kennels like it's so hilarious I never really noticed it like I knew zero 3d stuff was good that's why I tell people it's worth the cost because you're getting the best on the markets but it was at Lone Star we really saw like you can see like a cero KITT Oh a mile down the road and you can tell yes here okay and then you are I call the one colors that are not Syrah yeah like like the neons that David once oh Jesus is he really putting me on I don't know he still calls them neons so just to whet the appetite of our viewers / listeners uncle kid and I have a shock and awe 2.0 kid that we are gonna be installing on both of our body I know I can't wait I've got one of them going on the Fat Bob as well but I know you can leave me out it's fine don't get loud you're the big youtuber here we're scraping by it was the same you you're putting on the same parts I am I know I am right on your coattails see yeah I have a couple of videos I can go in reference now yeah but but yeah we were looking at partnering up with zero 3d and having them become a sponsor of the show but we have to test out their products first we're not going to take Justin's word on this yeah we have to test to see yourself gonna see if they're garbage or not yeah it's not like y'all seen it in person or anything complemented how good they look at every single riot we go on but that's fine hey you buddy we can tell from our and put their tail lights on so other people behind me could tell me how good they look so that is coming we are gonna do a install video because we have to and then we're actually gonna do a full review and talk about it it's God they've got to be better than well I mean those at the OP 7 that was op 7 that was them op 7 you get exactly what you pay for I'm all saying that as far as value $2 for 40 bucks I mean exactly value $2 I think they're right there was zero I mean my controller had to quit I'd probably buy yeah you pay more you get more yeah I mean and what I think that really rings true when it comes to LEDs well yeah I mean look I'm paid 40 bucks for the OP seven ones the controller went out and I was like it you know and I just ripped them all off yeah I mean I could have went through the hassle of trying to get op7 to send me another controller but good luck but exactly it's I'm on my Sportster I had to replace it three I mean it's a foreign company and you're not talking to somebody in the states no and it's all through email and yeah you know where's you know with zero 3d yeah I can call them yeah someone who's gonna answer the phone exactly and Wisconsin they might have a slight accent how you doing there buddy hey there hey there order oh you had some problems your lights there I see no problem we need you taken right care of it pretty accurate yeah but but yeah so expect to see that now I do want to put a little teaser out there if y'all watch biking Birds Channel he saw him do his harley-davidson Footwear review or kind of talking about you know when getting his his new riding shoes we also mentioned in there that he got a set for uncle Ken and myself so I'm gonna be I've did decide to put together a video for this one but go over a little bit of some highlights so I tested out the Harley Davidson Bateman which is a waterproof riding shoe and I must admit I've not had great experiences with riding shoes I've owned two pairs of the speed and Street speed and strength at black 9 moto shoes both of which were super comfy for all-day wear like you've I'd walk into work and be fine they do have some armor in them but the soul is complete garbage on the streets which is the one place that you cannot have a bad soul so here's those highlights of what will be coming in our Ruby video the shoes are heavy heavier than my full height leather boots and now my leather boots think western style boots they're heavier than those and those are armored hmm these are not armored now y'all's were not armored they are comfortable for short walking like think going into a store like a convenience store or something grabbing something or walking into a restaurant but not so comfortable that I could walk around a rally all day and finally for the little teaser here the sole is complete I mean it's pretty slippery my god it's very slippery seeing it I didn't notice see because like all three of us are in different points here yeah it's like mine were a little bit heavier than my other shoes but they had a lot more armor in them and I could wear them around walking all day I warm - I think it warm - IMS but I don't want to a warm I'm the lone star yeah we're mind a lone star and then of course there they're lighter than my boots but I also wear steel-toed boots yes and whatnot but I will agree that the sole was I wouldn't say complete but it definitely need to improve I didn't notice and maybe I just stopped in all the right spots yeah but yeah so when Brad was getting his tattoo I had him on and I want to rode up there I was like I need to break him in and scuff up the out of the sole so I can give a fair review and I purposely would drag my feet on the ground trying to rough him up and even that did nothing yeah they stayed slippery yeah super slippery so I will be putting out a full review in the near future so be sure you are subscribed to between two wheels YouTube channel we are going to be doing more non podcast videos on the channel so head over there subscribe if you have and click the little bell icon so you are notified whenever we upload because as you guys know right now we upload every Wednesday so that's when the podcast goes live that's when the video goes live so we are trying to add more content for you all now the closing argument which I did not write up here cuz I did not want show all having a preview which we probably wouldn't have even read anyways but that's what I usually don't read the closing now no that's good it's a surprise then of the new quotes mid-year release with the three new paint jobs which one is your favorite paint job just paint job yeah not the bikes but the paint job so we're including the Fat Boy Fat Boy and the Chi Rho 2 Rho glides Oh for me the the CBO that sand dune yeah I like I like that better than yellow or gold or green or whatever color the other one is gold and black is black or urine two-day-old urine yeah v piss bottle urine yeah yeah yeah the sand dune it looks really good okay I know I bitched about the most I'm up to go with the fat boy just because I feel like that would give me the best slate for or a custom bike with the CBO's I feel like it's it's too complete of a bike same reason why I didn't buy a Street Glide special put a to her back on it I instead bought the ultra and did all the stuff myself than Wake and it's different and I feel like the fat boy's a better platform for a build fair enough if you if you're a bot not built kind of guy obviously this Evo sure yeah but to that point all the work you did on your okhla on the bow donkey mm-hmm would you keep the four-point docking harness on there or would you go back to a solid mount I'd go back to this all about do you still have your solid I do okay yeah it just it's not red we can fix that I know but that's all three dollars the whole process krylon so for me shocker I'm actually going with Fat Boy I to your point it's it's kind of a perfect starting point yeah and Harley clearly only went 90 percent when they were completing that bike but yeah but you know and we're gonna probably touch on this a little bit in another episode yeah next week's episode from this one I actually kind of want a soft tail just to play with they're really fun I I'm really getting excited for my fat bob to be done yeah yeah we've been waiting on apart for me for a while know that has been holding up anything no it's that extractor broken off in my rear wheel that's been holding up a lot of things so it's still there oh yeah just burn the whole thing down just scrap the whole project I gave it Dave came over to talk to me just nothing bike related but he saw I still hadn't got any doubt he goes got me take it to work I'll I'll mess with it I'm like groans you wanted to go for it cuz it's it's you broke it at the bottom right I broke it in the entire threat event the extractor bulb is at the very bottom though the extractor bit I should say is that the but what worries me is my soul I gave it to him on Wednesday and he told me yesterday evening to call him and I haven't called him yet so I don't know he texted me everything else but he won't tell me it's about the wheel maybe he took a torch to it you know I had to heat it up to get it out I'd much rather have it recoded that to buy a new wheel and have it recoded because if he heated up and flicked the powder coat then he can take the wheel off because that was the only cost outside of the powder coat was putting the wheel on so I could just take it a router and be like sorry bro got a got a recode it strip it and recode it yep yeah it p.m. that hurts my soul yeah I've been toying with the idea of going with a soft towel and something that both Traci and I could have fun on so what would it be find out next week thank you for tuning into between two wheels podcasts to see the show notes for

PbRHWGUBDVc | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PbRHWGUBDVc | How to Use a pH Meter | this is a ph meter and this is how you use it at the moment it's set on standby which means it's shorted out and the electrode has been sitting in distilled water overnight or since the last time it was used now the trick is don't lift the electrode out of the liquid unless it's on stand by that you can polarize the electrode and it will give you very peculiar results if you do that we are going to calibrate the machine using buffer solutions which are available in these vials they live next to a ph meter they're labeled and they're also color coded so we'll lift this up and using a kimwipe blot it dry and when i say blot that's what i mean don't rub it dry again you'll develop a static electric charge and that's a fabulous way to get lousy results so we then lower the electrode into this one which is the ph4 buffer it's pink and we turn this to ph over this way and then use the standardize knob to make sure the machine reads 4.01 there we are that's now set at 4.01 and the second thing i do whoops get back up there thank you is put that on standby and we do the second portion of the calibration it's on standby lift it up out of the buffer solution put the cap back on and rinse the electrode blot it again and we're now going to put it into ph 10 now at this point we put it onto ph and instead of using standardized we're going to use the slope to adjust this until it gets to 10.01 and so we adjust this until we're getting to 10.01 there we go put it on standby and again lift up wash the electrodes off and we're now ready to take ph measurements using this machine if you forget there is the instruction of how to standardize a ph meter is always going to be nearby to the ph meter so you won't try to travel very far when you want to read just put your solution under the electrode turn it onto ph and it'll tell you what the ph is at the end of the day please leave this on standby make sure that it is washed off and in a beaker of fresh distilled water for the next person to come along the waste disposal for this is down sink with lots of running water | Chris Ambidge | UC4rtlB-8VKsun9rb9Avgh7g | 2015-07-13 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 420 | 2,082 |
4Kkou9u01j4 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Kkou9u01j4 | Morning Market Prep | Stock & Options Trading | 5-4-20 | [Music] good morning friends and fellow traders this is Doug Campbell with right weigh options and this is the morning market prep video for May 4th 2024 all of you Star Wars fans out there may the 4th be with you this morning we are looking at kind of an interesting set up this morning the Bears certainly are stirring about and last week we had a pretty significant sell-off heading into the close so what does that mean for this morning well how about we take a look at the technical settle in and let's get ready for the morning market prep video for Monday so this morning just a kind of a nasty little pullback going on at least it's better than it was last night last night we were looking at 300 plus points to the downside this morning we're looking at a little bit better situation we take a look at our trend here in the chart it all depends on how you choose to draw this trend but if we choose to draw this trend kind of something like this we kind of ignored this outlier here run that trend up along here and I really should have drawn that just a little bit tighter if you take a look Friday's selling kind of broke that trend but the good news is is that right below this we have our 50-day moving average and we have a significant level of price support right in here on the chart now if we take a look at the morning right now bid a spread is suggesting that we're gonna gap down and we're gonna be right down here in this area and what's going on this morning is just the uncertainty that we have about reopening the economy I think everyone's beginning to realize that the reopening is going to be very very difficult it's going to be extremely challenging for businesses to reopen think about it if we have to maintain social distancing numbers and things like that reopening a lot of these businesses will be extremely challenged and what are the liabilities that these businesses will face as they begin to reopen will they even be able to reform to reopen if they don't have enough business coming in to support their overhead costs so lots of questions circulating out there lots of uncertainty and that's giving those bears a little bit of additional activity so the question as to whether we're going to follow through has been answered now the big question is whether or not we can hold on to some of these levels of support as you can see this morning the Dow will be challenging hard its 50-day moving average this morning now as long as it can hold in there we'll be in really good shape I suspect we could fail that 50-day even at the open and we're going to have to rely on this level of price support well to to really inspire the bowls to fight if if they can't hold on into this area we could have some real challenges ahead just keep in mind if we were to fall through here the next level of price support is down in here that's still a significant drop in price of the Dow and that could have a lot of effect on other indexes if the Dow really starts to suffer here so let's watch that closely and let's keep our fingers crossed and hope we find some support in these areas right here and catch a little bit of a bounce off of that area let's take a look at the spy SP y is in a better situation technically speaking because we have a little bit more space to our 50-day moving average and notice that our 50-day moving averages are still falling they're still in decline we haven't had a chance to recover our shorter term averages have recovered and that can provide a bit of a lab level of support right in here and as you can see we have that nice little level right in here where all those averages and everything kind of come together we're trying to find that area of support once again right here is our uptrend and so far the spy held up in its uptrend it is in better shape than the diamonds is and we're going to gap down into this area this morning so we have a pretty substantial level right right in here of support let's hope those bulls identify that and decide to defend and hold on to that area because if we were to slip back below that and I know no one really wants to think that that cooker but if it were to occur it's a fairly significant slide down into this next level of support so let's just stay focused on the price action try not to predict where the markets going to go and just stay focused on that price action and try to determine how we want to navigate the day ahead let's take a look at the key is know the cues by far the strong so the index is the pullback this morning although rather substantial it's not going to break down anything technically and as you can see dropping just a little bit here this morning here in the Nasdaq we're still going to be well above this key support area and our 50-day moving average is now crossing down through the 200 not a good sign typically they call that the death cross 50 crossing down through the 200 but with a volatility that we've seen here in the market it may not mean much of anything we need that 50-day moving average to start turning up and our best hope here is the Nasdaq for that to start turning up if we continue to slip that's watch these levels of support and down in here and keep in mind though we are still holding on to trend here in the Nasdaq so we're in pretty good shape here when it comes to the tech sector let's take a look at IWM now IWM not so much IWM gave up its 50-day moving average here at the close on Friday and we're going to gap down below trend and this key level of support and that level of support translates right back here or we in recovered the 2018 low now we're pushing back down below that this morning we'll have to wait and see how IWM responds but right now i WM is really serving we're kind of dragging it around with the other indexes and the Q's is trying to do the heavy lifting of lifting every market right now can it continue to do that I don't know so what are the things that are going to maybe affect that today well first let's take a look at the VIX the VIX had a pretty good rally here and at the end of the week but it wasn't so substantial that should really scare us all that much we did break down below this level of price support and we broke back above and let me zoom zoom back here a little bit and you can see that price of pork I'm showing right it here in these charts and so we broke back above that but we remain below our 50-day moving average which is a good sign and we remain below even those shorter term like the 34 EMA and the 20 so that is a good sign popping back up is a little bit of concern and I suspect that we will pop up a little bit higher this morning with the sell-off this morning but we'll want to watch that carefully we don't want to see that fear really start to spike back up so if we can stay below this little area right in here I think it's it's setting up right through this range if we can stay below that range we're probably gonna be in pretty good shape and continue to see that fear diminish although we may set up more of a choppy zone in here around fear at least we may prevent that from spiking up substantially let's take a look at T 21 22 T 21 22 is the 4 week new high new low ratio you can see Friday we got a big pullback here dropping below this 50% area here on T 21 22 which is a good sign we drop down through here just exactly what we need to see and a gap lower this morning could bring us back down into this area down in here so let's watch down here we could be reaching that short-term oversold condition and be expecting that bounce back up it's really gonna depend on how we respond to all of the earnings data and economic data that's coming our way this week so let's take a look at that our earnings calendar this morning we have we have a big earnings calendar so let's start off with our economic calendar our economic calendar got a couple things on it but nothing of major concern we've got motor vehicle sales and we have factory orders both of those you have the potential to move the market around but probably not nearly as substantial as the things later this week international trade jobless claims and the macdaddy this week is going to be the employment situation number which is a week later than normal and I don't think anyone is expecting that to be a good number and could cause some significant stress for the market as we move toward that number and seeing those very grim numbers that it's likely to report so on our earnings front we have about 250 companies reporting earnings today in a week where we have about 1,500 companies reporting so we can expect an awful lot of volatility now as I as I talk earnings are coming out and right now Dow futures have improved just a little bit we're down 222 points at the moment in Dow futures but let's take a look at some of those companies that could be moving things around here this morning Oh Oh a real estate company will be reporting today let's keep an eye on that AIG AIG will be reporting today AWR reporting today look looks like it might be trying to indicate just a tiny little bit higher in the utility CA are CA are reporting this morning and looks like they are gapping just a little bit lower here at the open dlb DOP will be reporting huge wide bit s spread this is crazy TC mm is really cool and the way it shows me the morning open the morning bid-ask and you can see that marker makers have spread that out ridiculously waiting for a report it looks like how about hurts hurts htz reporting this morning now they announced that they were declaring bankruptcy it'll be interesting to see what happens here but it looks like hurts right now indicated to open about where it closed on Friday lows is reporting today and looks like it's indicating a little lower here this morning in an end reporting this morning it's kind of a wide bit Esprit as well Ohi Ohi will be reporting and it is also looking to get just a little bit lower here this morning pets pets is reporting this morning can't see that the report has come out on that with a white bin a spread we've got Shake Shack that's on the docket for today and it looks like it's gapping just a tiny little bit lower Tyson Tyson is gapping lower this morning and there's major concern right now about meat products and we've got Tyson and Smithfield and other meat packing facilities that are struggling because of the coronavirus understand that there are some areas of the country where they're actually rationing meat out there's a limit on what you can buy because I guess there's been a bit of a run trying to stock up in case prices begin to spike on that WM b WM b is also reporting this morning and WH so few companies of note and that's only going to grow substantially as we go through the week they're gonna be a huge number coming in right now and these numbers will change but on the earnings calendar I showed nearly 400 tomorrow almost 500 on Wednesday and over 750 on Thursday 150 on Friday so they're really slamming those in here really fast expect quite a little bit of volatility in price action as a result Dow futures are back down now below 250 points so there's that volatility where we popped up we were nearing 200 points down and now were 259 260 points lower showing us that volatility first thing here this morning so with that what can we look for where can we find some security safety and some of these markets well I gotta tell you with the gap down this morning it's gonna be one of those we're gonna have to wait in see where we find some of those safety plays but there could be some things going on in stocks like newmont mining mining kind of really nice rally on Friday pushing back up trying to hold some support levels in here and you can see gold or the gold miner moving up here this morning gold buried gold had a beautiful bullish engulfing candle on Friday holding this price support and as you can see it's gapping up this morning right into my price alert I would maybe keep an eye on that as fear starts to pick up we may be looking at some of these safety plays take a look at AG AG had a nice little resting pull back here pulled back into price support and then on Friday perked back up nice little piercing type candle here and it looks like silver is trying to move a little bit higher here this morning we could go straight to SLV SLV I'm has been consolidating here could start to perk up and GLD itself is showing strength this morning as we perk up another place for safety that a person might look would be in bonds TLT getting a little bit of a lift here on Friday maybe indicating just slightly higher this morning stock wise there's a lot of places we can look stocks like CGC cannabis stocks interesting pull back that we had here in that stock and now this morning it's indicated higher so we may look to some of those cannabis stocks to try and hold some of these trends and reverse and pop back up take a look at CGC keep in mind guys that all a lot of companies are gonna be reporting earnings so you're gonna want to pay attention to win those earnings report tl ry is another cannabis stock holding its price support and if that picks up off of there there be an opportunity Crone Crone really sold off ugly last week trying to indicate a little bit higher this morning but I think I'd probably stay away from Kron 4 a little bit and that opportunity it could rally back into this resistance area and fail and it's gonna report on 5:8 so kind of keep that in mind for that their reports only a few days away other places that you might look stocks that have been holding up relatively well are the casinos Caesars Palace here trying to hold up we've run nicely in this little trend right in here run up nicely we're pulling back into that trend look for an opportunity maybe for that to perk up in their stock like sq sq has held up pretty darn well a little bit of selling in there on Friday and gave me a little concern maybe breaking that trend but if that can move right back up off of this significant level of support it's still worth watching to see if there's that opportunity there in those charts other places are going to be oil now oil had a bad day on Friday pulling back pretty hard but sometimes that sets up great opportunities so if we take a look at Cabot Oil Cabot Oil pulled back pushed back up the the Bears weren't able to hold on to that and so we're still in this consolidating range here and this morning that's indicated to open oh right about where it closed so we're in this consolidating range still chopping sideways we want to watch this because the overall trend right now is up and we want to watch for that opportunity that that could perk on higher we saw some big moves and like Exxon Mobil ExxonMobil sold off strongly on Friday but overall we're trying to hold in these price levels of support so if we can hold above these areas in here and get those buyers stepping back in may be okay but it is indicated lower this morning so keep an eye on that oil may be a place where we can go for a little bit of security but we're gonna have to watch pretty closely so many stocks are moving around so dramatically it's hard to know what comes next in these plays another place that has been holding up really really well is these gaming companies Electronic Arts holding up quite well even as the market sold off if it can hold this level of support we might want to look for that opportunity tunity here for that to perk back up ttwo take two also had a really nice perk back up here on Friday trying to hold the level of support now I would say this guy is pretty darn volatile in its candles the way it's moving around can be a little bit more dangerous here but watch this as this tries to push back up toward those resistance I will take two interactive might be a place to look so there's a few stocks out there that we should be paying attention to Nike was one I was kind of watching last week but it just really couldn't get its mojo together to get moving so if it can hold this level of support right through here there may be that opportunity that this perks back up all this have to wait and see it's gonna be kind of a tough road ahead knowing what comes next as we face the virus as we face this reopening it's gonna be well a lot of challenges ahead here for the market last stock I'm gonna mention here is okay ta okay t a very nice consolidation here holding above a significant level of support what's notable in here for me is that there really doesn't seem to be a big willingness to sell in here everyone seems to be holding on and if kind of consider this candle a bit of an outlier and run a trend up here we're getting really really close in that trend where we could see those buyers step up so watch that carefully on ok ta without everyone hey I want to wish you all a fantastic day I don't want to wish you a great week in the market I do expect a really challenging price action market with so many earnings reports and then that big employment number on Friday is gonna weigh heavily on investors Minds so watch this carefully try to set your bias aside and really focus on the price action of the trades that's the way we can make money in the market is just setting that bias aside and really focusing in on that price action everyone take care I wish you all the best hopefully this this morning's note find you all happy and rested for the week we'll see you right back here bright and early bright and early Tuesday morning have a good one [Music] you [Music] | Right Way Options | UCTatdFaxjHC42AIu-devoqQ | 2020-05-04 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 3,402 | 17,593 |
HHmKiXaN0a4 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HHmKiXaN0a4 | eFootball 2023 | WEEKLY ROUNDUP - ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW | what's the crack Lads welcome back to the channel so just a quick Roundup of today's new content uh new logging campaigns new downloads celebrations all this good stuff well depending on how you're enjoying football at the moment maybe it's good stuff maybe it's boring stuff but let's get into it we're just gonna have a weekly Roundup of all the stuff that they added today right so starting off if you are not at your console you can check yourself there is no events this week obviously with the authentic match because everything is happening within Dream Team itself the Dream Team mode here uh with the event still going on and then you have your league obviously I think there's what three days left in that um a Dream Team event now the big one today is obviously the login campaigns you get a free version of Neymar I've already done uh a review on this Neymar card I mean it's a beastly card LEDs I think they've changed V 2.4 quite a bit with the shooting and with the way that cards work um so yeah I mean it's Neymar he is one of the best players in the game and I think if you have got a free Messy a free Namer and a free mbappe you have got probably three of the best attackers that you can get that are not epic players uh you know over the last couple of months right but this Neymar comes as well uh with a 280 special login bonus so pretty simple let's you're just gonna have to log into the game they say that it's to celebrate 600 million downloads We would like to sincerely thank you for your generous support and then obviously you get Neymar when you log in today there are the dates for the rest of my throat excuse me Lads there are they those are the login bonuses so log in today for your 10d football clients tomorrow for another 10 and then keep going and that is on from the 2nd of March which is today to the 30th March so you basically log in every day 28 days in a row and you will get 280 coins there's also the objectives then as well so there is a Golden Goal rule uh worldwide clubs that is back due to Fan demand that's what I'm told a lot of people were asking for the golden gold there and then you also have the AI Legend as well uh with the national teams Tour event um and of course you can play the masterful AI Legend challenge event get your hands on a wide variety of objectives so we'll get into that in a second but look there is a good lot of stuff here obviously um with the events we do have a couple of the events here that we were talking about so the second round of the qualifiers there's three days left in that then you've got the league BBVA you've got 30k for dash for the Ultimate Prize you've got a free chance deal that's from last week you've got the worldwide clubs um there as well so you can obviously get that with the tour events and that is against the AI then you have another AI event here where there's a lot of you know a lot of rewards offer grabs if you play with International Teams uh you can get thirty thousand thirty thousand another thirty thousand thirty thousand and then as you keep going eventually you're going to continue to get all them until I think yeah ten thousand points trainer points as well but same with the worldwide Club so this is a golden gold one um so this should be quick and easy and a very good way to clear on your match pass I'll have that video up on that as well and it's mostly trainer points points for your reward so yeah I mean all you have to do is score goals in that one um as far as I as far as I can see and then you also have this Legend challenge event right so this is a special event introducing a versus AI event of skill and prowess take on the two toughest AI match levels with your dream team complete all challenges and you get these rewards so you just need to win two times uh one in each Challenge and you get 20 000 trainer programs and another 20 000 after the second challenge so that yeah look I mean they're adding stuff man there's still a lot left to be done but yeah let's uh let's let's kind of way to go down that um discussion and rant in the live stream later depending on when I upload this video or it will be probably live stream yesterday uh depending on when I upload this right so we also have a lot of new cards added today um we'll just get into this with the E football points here we do have Andy Cole added two to three players so if you are staying free to play you can get him for 5 000 uh points I will have a review up on Andy Cole and the best training guide for him because he is a fairly good characterless he's a fairly good uh Center forward we also have a 600 million download coin sale promotion um so basically you're able to get these coins at a discounted price um I think it's what 50 off or something like that yeah so you can get 280 coins for a Euro or a pound I think uh or 79p or whatever your currency is um and then 3 400 coins for 20 Euro there as you can see there and you can get them once so you can you know like normally the three thousand four three hundred are 30 uh Euros so they are they're available for a special price and you get a few extra coins as well thrown in so look if you are obviously I'm just covering uh what's new or what's that did the objectives then there's a few more objectives for this as well including the 600 million download campaign special ejective one uh score with Neymar Jr that's kind of cool uh achieved by scoring a goal with Neymar Jr match results will not affect so you just can use your free card for this I'm going to do a video on this because it's something that I fed back quite a bit in a lot of feedback and suggested stuff um and we're going to get into that in a future video but I do like this man all you have to do is Achieve the three of these and you get 30 coins you also get 20 000 GP for each of those so I like that I mean that you're using the free card that they give you to you you know to have content and depending on your time and how much you can play a week that could be enough for a weekly content for you uh depending on how often you play the game we also have the round one objective still ongoing um but yeah with the E football points we do have a couple of banners here to get through right we will get to the cards in a second and we do have a couple of banners to get through as well because we do still have all our agents to go through and I'll go through quite quickly um I went about this the worst possible way sorry Lance it's taking ages to go through these banners um but there are from last week so this 5000 e football points as well uh is basically the same as the last video we will do a quick little video on that as well um but with the with Andy Cole there now I think Andy Cole is probably worth I think he's definitely worth um getting to be honest with you so yeah it is kind of uh it is going to be something that like for 5 000 points I don't think that um he's going to be the worst player to buy obviously we do have the points there the celebration we just need to log in and uh get the points there as well so that should be fairly self-explanatory as we've already done before um I'll do a short video on it as well so once you log in basically Lads and then go back to this page go to earn points we will cover that in a short little video you get your 5 000 free points you go back to your main menu and then obviously we have our 5 000 extra points in there as well so it's gone from 13 000 to 18 000 for me so that means you can get a free Andy call so yeah look it's not bad man it's a lot of free content I suppose for people um that are looking to kind of play the game more regularly um but yeah we've moving on to last but not least we do have special players so I have done reviews on all of these and they will be up if they're not up already they will be up quite soon within the next day or two would like to space them out but we've got Holland Kane and asherman our phenomenal finishers now there is going to be a couple of changes common to these players right and um we will get into that in a in a in a in another in another video right because you can see there that Holland has got phenomenal finishing as a player skill so this is going to be a little bit different than any other skill that we've had in the game there right so we've got phenomenal finishing we're also going to have Fortress they're going to be adding new skills you can see here um that this is a brand new finishing stats um that we haven't really seen in action yet because it's only dropped today but I will be testing that out deep testing that out look I think the way that it's going for special cars with special abilities it is work to do in another video on but we will get into that in another video and in the live stream right we also have player of the week here I've done a review on them we also have three new packs so you've got Spanish selection Italian selection and English selection there are some nice players in there um I would say there's no epics or Legends this this week it's all current players there's some nice players in there somewhere on a farm like Martinez with the restaurant C form um and that is pretty much it for the weekly round of pledge that should be everything covered there's a lot to get through in future videos but yeah until next time Lads I will talk to you later hope you enjoyed the video

though i'm pretty sad with that i had him blocked ggs top 48 not too shabby i think even higher honestly because top 48 was just making today we went pretty far in i think we're like oh really probably top 32 oh 24 then a little cringe not bad not bad [Music] ggs that was so much fun that's good all right later later so after that series ended that unfortunately is the end of our run for

n2soHIkSMVU | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n2soHIkSMVU | Winnie-the-Pooh Chapter 10 - Christopher Robin Gives Pooh a Party, and We Say Good-bye | [Music] chapter 10 in which christopher robin gives pooh a party and we say goodbye one day when the sun had come back over the forest bringing with it the scent of may and all the streams of the forest were tinkling happily to find themselves their own pretty shape again and the little pools lay dreaming of the life they had seen and the big things they had done and in the warmth and quiet of the forest the cuckoo was trying over his voice carefully and listening to see if he liked it and wood pigeons were complaining gently to themselves in their lazy comfortable way that it was the other fellow's fault but it didn't matter very much on such a day as this christopher robin whistled in a special way he had and owl came flying out of the hundred acre wood to see what was wanted how said christopher robin i am going to give a party you are are you said al and it's to be a special sort of party because it's because of what pooh did when he did what he did to save piglet from the flood oh that's what it's for is it sadal yes so will you tell pooh as quickly as you can and all the others because it will be tomorrow oh it will will it said al still being as helpful as possible so will you go and tell them how owl tried to think of something very wise to say but couldn't so he flew off to tell the others and the first person he told was poo poo he said christopher robin is giving a party oh said pooh and then seeing that owl expected him to say something else he said will there be those little cake things with pink sugar icing owl felt that it was rather beneath him to talk about little cake things with their pink sugar icing so he told pooh exactly what christopher robin had said and flew off to eeyore a party for me thought pooh to himself how grinned and he began to wonder if all the other animals would know that it was a special poo party and if christopher robin had told them about the floating bear and the brain of pooh and all the wonderful ships he had invented and sailed on and he began to think how awful it would be if everybody had forgotten about it and nobody quite knew what the party was for and the more he thought like this the more the party got muddled in his mind like a dream when nothing goes right and the dream began to sing itself over in his head until it became a sort of song it was an anxious poo song three cheers for poo for who for poo why what did he do i thought you knew he saved his friend from a wedding three cheers for bear for where for bear he couldn't swim but he rescued him he rescued who oh listen to i'm talking of poo of who of poo i'm sorry i keep forgetting well pooh was a bear of enormous brain just say it again of enormous brain of enormous what well he ate a lot and i don't know if he could swim or not but he managed to float on a sort of boat on a sort of what well a sort of pot so now let's give him three hearty tears so now let's give him three hearty witches and hope he'll be with us for years and years and grow in health and wisdom and riches three cheers for poo for who for poo three cheers for bear for where for bear three cheers for the wonderful winnie the just tell me somebody what did he do while this was going on inside him owl was talking to eeyore you're said al christopher robin is giving a party very interesting said eeyore i suppose they will be sending me down the odd bits which got trodden on kind and thoughtful not at all don't mention it there is an invitation for you what's that like an invitation yes i heard you who dropped it this isn't anything to eat it's asking you to the party tomorrow eeyore shook his head slowly you mean piglet the little fellow with the excited ears that's piglet i'll tell him no no said owl getting quite fussy it's you are you sure of course i'm sure christopher robin said all of them tell all of them all of them accept your all of them said owl sulkily ah said eeyore no mistake no doubt but still i shall come only don't blame me if it rains but it didn't rain christopher robin had made a long table out of some long pieces of wood and they all sat round it christopher robin sat at one end and pooh sat at the other and between them on one side were owl and eeyore and piglet and between them on the other side were rabbit and rue and kanga and all rabbits friends and relations spread themselves about on the grass and waited hopefully in case anybody spoke to them or dropped anything or asked them the time it was the first party to which rue had ever been and he was very excited as soon as ever they had sat down he began to talk hello he squeaked hello roo said pooh roo jumped up and down in his seat for a little while and then began again hello piglet he squeaked piglet waved a paw at him being too busy to say anything hello said rue you're nodded gloomily at him it will rain soon you see if it doesn't he said rue looked to see if it didn't and it didn't so he said hello how and owl said hello my little fellow in a kindly way and went on telling christopher robin about an accident which had nearly happened to a friend of his whom christopher robin didn't know and kangas said to rue drink up your milk first dear and talk afterwards so rue who was drinking his milk tried to say that he could do both at once and had to be patted on the back and dried for quite a long time afterwards when they had all nearly eaten enough christopher robin banged on the table with his spoon and everybody stopped talking and was very silent except rue who was just finishing a loud attack of hiccups and trying to look as if it was one of rabbit's relations this party said christopher robin is a party because of what someone did and we all know who it was and it's his party because of what he did and i've got a present for him and here it is and he felt about a little and whispered where is it while he was looking eeyore coughed in an impressive way and began to speak friends he said including ottomans it is a great pleasure or perhaps i had better say it has been a pleasure so far to see you at my party what i did was nothing and any of you except rabbit and owl and kanga would have done the same oh and pooh my remarks do not of course apply to piglet and rue because they are too small any of you would have done the same but it just happened to be me it was not i need hardly say with an idea of getting what christopher robin is looking for now and he put his front leg to his mouth and said in a loud whisper try under the table that i did what i did but because i feel that we should all do what we can to help i feel that we should all said rue accidentally rudy said kanga reproachfully was it me asked rue a little surprised what's he or talking about piglet whispered to pooh i don't know said pooh rather dolefully i thought this was your party i thought it was once but i suppose it isn't i'd sooner it was yours and yours said piglet so would i said pooh said rue again as i was saying said eeyore loudly and sternly as i was saying when i was interrupted by various loud sounds i feel that here it is cried christopher robin excitedly pass it down to silly old pooh it's for poo for poo said eeyore of course it is the best beer in all the world i might have known said eeyore after all one can't complain i have my friends somebody spoke to me only yesterday and was it last week or the week before that rabbit bumped into me and said bother the social round always something going on nobody was listening for they were all saying open it pooh what is it pooh i know what it is no you don't and other helpful remarks of this sort and of course pooh was opening it as quickly as ever he could but without cutting the string because you never know when a bit of string might be useful at last it was undone when pooh saw what it was he nearly fell down he was so pleased it was a special pencil case there were pencils in it marked b for bear and pencils marked hb for helping bear and pencils marked bb for brave bear there was a knife for sharpening the pencils and india rubber for rubbing out anything which you had spelt wrong and a ruler for ruling lines for the words to walk on and inches marked on the ruler in case you wanted to know how many inches anything was and blue pencils and red pencils and green pencils for saying special things in blue and red and green and all these lovely things were in little pockets of their own in a special case which shut with click when you clicked it and they were all for poo said pooh oh pooh said everybody else except eeyore thank you growled pooh but eeyore was saying to himself miss writing business pencils and whatnot overrated if you ask me silly stuff nothing in it later on when they had all said goodbye and thank you to christopher robin pooh and piglet walked home thoughtfully together in the golden evening and for a long time they were silent when you wake up in the morning poo said piglet at last what's the first thing you say to yourself what's for breakfast said poo what do you say piglet i say i wonder what's going to happen exciting today said piglet pooh nodded thoughtfully it's the same thing he said and what did happen asked christopher robin when next morning i don't know could you think and tell me and pooh sometime if you wanted it very much who does said christopher robin he gave a deep sigh picked his bear up by the leg and walked off to the door trailing winnie the pooh behind him and at the door he turned and said coming to see me have my bath i might i said was poo's pencil case any better than mine it was just the same i said he nodded and went out and in a moment i heard winnie the pooh going up the stairs behind him [Music] | Story Time by Richard Slater | UCsrrh3uhCiWrP8EDLNuDnuA |

okay and nicholas ben noticed um a nomination on behalf of the football team and they said among other things when students are dealing with personal issues ms mullins makes it clear she will always be there to help support them provide any assistance needed it is not uncommon for ms mullins to extend assignment deadlines lend an ear to listen or open her heart to show her students she cares about them she has an amazing way of teaching that gives the students the responsibility which challenges them through in-depth class discussions and personal reflections it is truly an honor to have a teacher who constantly wants to connect with her students the student body at fenton high school is fortunate to have ms mullins in our lives and kelly mullins the chicago bears could not agree more

students in your class congratulations hi it's kate ward i was so pleased although not surprised when i heard that the chicago bears had chosen kelly mullins as a chicago bears classroom champion as somebody who's worked with kelly now for close to 15 years i know that she has always put so much hard work and effort into building relationships with her students in addition to being a great historian it was gratifying to hear the words of the students in the letters that they wrote about kelly saying that she's a teacher who truly cares about her students and one who makes the classroom a fun place to be uh those perfectly sum up who miss mullins is who miss mullins is as a teacher the one thing i was a little bit worried about was being part of this surprise if you know kelly you know that she's very sharp and very observant i knew from the minute that i went to her virtual classroom with jovan that she knew that we were up to something and i'm just really happy that she was as happy with the surprise as we were and that she's still talking to me so kelly congratulations you totally deserve this i'm so happy that the chicago bears recognized you and that you were able to hear the way that students feel about you [Music] great job shout out to kelly mullins there thank you very good glad to see that thank you for that um and congratulations to uh kelly uh we move on to the public comments uh james do we have any requests for public comments we have received four public comments which dr benson will read okay um is a reminder public comments are limited to three minutes per speaker with a limit of 30 minutes to top it sam will read the public comments received in chronological order uh sam okay public comment number one greetings my name is emma butz i am a 2016 alumni of fentanyl and a member of the fender advocacy network fan and i have been working diligently to advocate for traditionally marginalized groups who have are and will eventually attend fenton high school we are going to continue to push the board of education to meet the needs of our highly diverse community we would like to encourage the work we have been putting into our efforts to enhance our community to be reciprocated by the board this may look like reaching out to fan to discuss goals and include us in the conversation to discuss the needs of our school our goals are as stated below we will advocate for traditionally marginalized groups at fenton high school and provide support to the previously mentioned community wanting to advocate for others we will provide a voice to those who have been silenced or discouraged by discrimination through various platforms we will encourage meaningful mandatory equity training among all teaching staff administration support staff etc we will encourage students to engage in workshops that address equity race and discrimination conducted by certified professionals we will actively address the question are the needs of traditionally marginalized groups being recognized and met we will discuss current relevant and evolving issues involving justice and equity that affect traditionally marginalized groups we will not be silenced we will not or we will be heard our community deserves to be held with high regard and pride continuing to dismiss this prominent public outreach would be shameful and cold let me leave you with this statement by sonia sotomayor until you have equal education we will not have an equal society thank you for your time public comment number two my name is jessica bango my pronouns are she her hers and i am a class of 2016 fentanyl um to be a diverse high school that yearns for equity and to at the same time ignore the discrimination felt on fenton's campus as an injustice to our community this is now our sixth month submitting public comments to you all and not one of you has reached out to work with us and address our concerns since then other alumni and i have become the fentany advocacy network we have continued the conversation by sharing stories that serve as testaments to discrimination and inequities at fenton we have shared at least 15 stories of discrimination yet you all display fentanyl as pristine and without fault you have continued to define fenton with empty accolades and misleading data yet these stories are very real they have happened they are happening there is no award fenton could ever entertain that could repress or hide the apparent ineffectiveness of the policies in place regarding discrimination as the board continues to be silent we recognize that our goals may not be met with the current composition of the board with that said i want to highlight the importance of the upcoming board election in april to those list scene and may listen later your vote is our voice there are new candidates who are running for positions on board in april they are each unique passionate and driven about transparency and conducting dialogue the community members voting in the upcoming board election for a multitude of fresh new candidates will be crucial to ensure that the public concerns are taken seriously and that action is taken with the community's input this current board has ignored us for six months and ignored a petition with 600 alumni community members signatures calling for the creation and implementation of a diversity action plan it is up to you to decide if the change we all wish to see can actually transpire with the current composition of the board to the current board we have not given up the unfortunate truth is that we have extended the invitation to you every single month your science contributes to the oppression of not only our group but all students past present and future it's been six months of submitting comments but the equity journey is everlasting thank you public comment number three the following stories are testaments regarding acts of discrimination witnessed or experienced at fenton high school which were collected by the fentanyl advocacy network these stories shared here and that past board meetings are first-hand accounts of personal experiences that had a meaningful impact on the writers who are sharing them please do not infer motivations other than a willingness to share nor assume the identity of any of the participants these stories are not intended to be accusatory or to imply individual biases these stories are intended to reflect the greater fenton experiences of the contributors these are all submitted anonymous anonymously i'm a lesbian student at fenton high school my girlfriend and i attended football game one friday night like we usually do we met up with friends and it was great at first and it got cold so my girlfriend and i decided to walk to my car to grab a blanket on our way back to the stands near the alleyway two male fenton students were circling around us on their backs yelling disgusting at us pointing to the fact that we were holding hands i just remember feeling terrified and angry my girlfriend saw the look on my face and she felt the hopelessness i did too as an lgbtq plus student it's already hard to try and feel normal as it is but it's hard to overlook the stairs whispers and hurtful comments that night is still stuck with me and discouraged me from feeling comfortable in public i'm afraid to simply wear tight clothes without getting told by another by other people someone said i look like a i don't have the confidence i used to have just because i what i wear can supposedly define who i am as a person i wear it because i know i look pretty i have struggled with mental illness for nearly half a decade now but this hasn't changed the difficulties i have had as recently as mid-december i am in extracurriculars and most of the administrators have been kind and patient with my struggles except one during a one-on-one i was told the administrator did not care for what was going on and they tried to make it seem like my lack of success had been a result of laziness rather than mental illness becoming more severe the environment of fentanyl is everything but understanding of mental illness and other health problems save for the teachers the counselors rarely follow up on students whom they know are struggling rather than empathizing with students struggling with body image issues or depression they look at them like aliens and pretend the students are insane for common issues in the modern day it's disappointing that the school with more access to funding than schools in chicago for example is managing to mistreat their students far more severely than the school with only one counselor for 300 plus students i was involved in the fenton team and it was an absolute struggle the team chooses to highlight and praise people who have discriminated others on the team and have also part taken in bullying online the problem has been brought to staff members and nothing has been done even after asking them to take action feels like the staff members don't really care about their competitors how their competitors feel but in reality only care about how well we do one time a male student was struggling to do something an extracurricular and a staff member proceeded to say something along the lines of you can't do it because you are male this was highly inappropriate for a teacher to stay to a student and definitely made others in the room feel uncomfortable and public comment number four from patrick escobedo president of the fenton educational association president wiedemann and members of the board greetings and happy new year from the fea we hope that this new year brings with it new possibilities for all of you for our fenn community and indeed for our country as a whole the fda was greatly troubled by the insurrection at the u.s capitol a mere two weeks ago we strongly condemn the violent assault on our democracy itself our association is a democratic one and we believe that the democratic process lies at the very heart of our mission as educators to see an unruly mob attempting to subvert the will of the american people was deeply disturbing and saddening in particular the use of hateful white supremacist imagery and ideology during the insurrection is something we fervently reject we asked the board of education to join us in unequivocally condemning the actions of the writers who assaulted our democracy and we invite the board to join us in deepening our commitment civic education and equity at fenton we strongly believe that education and equity are more vital than ever and we hope the board does too in the spirit of pursuing equity in a collaborative manner we invite the board of education and joining our association for a discussion of the podcast nice white parents we have been listening to the podcast and we will have our next meeting on february 11th at both 7 a.m and 3 30 p.m that day to discuss the topics it raises we welcome the attendance and contributions to the discussion of our board of education and hope to see you there we have to admit we are still somewhat disappointed by the lack of board response to our statements while it is nice to be thanked for taking the time to make and submit statements the deeper desire of the association and indeed one which should be shared by the board is for robust and meaningful communication between the board and its stakeholders the board as the body won't take the time to reach out and follow up with those that submit public comments may we suggest that individual board members take the initiative to make themselves available in our current remote learning plan all teachers have office hours wherein we set aside time to meet with our students to talk about class and work collaboratively on assignments we encourage members of the board to create a similar office hour space where staff students parents community members can make time to talk with board members and share concerns ideas and aspirations for our fenton community making such time would have i'm sorry making such time would send a strong message to your stakeholders that you value their concerns and opinions and we strongly feel it would make the board a more effective governing body happy new year again we hope to hear back from you on our statement thank you sam thank you for uh reading those um i would like to take this opportunity to thank uh emma butz jessica bango jamie menard and patrick escobedo for your input thank you all for the comments we appreciate you taking the time uh for fenton high school um now we move on to district 100 informational items james president wiedemann just wanted to also uh thank the uh public comments and all the folks that sent in their public comments we are listening um and um as one of the commenters said uh it's a journey to equity um real quickly a quick preview of district 100 informational item report we will cover covet 19 updates the metrics vaccination federal learning plan b equity report uh which would include equity through the lens of finance and budget uh we will discuss uh equity audit and our dell team and the action plans uh then we will discuss a training for all of our staff are are certified non-certified as well as their administrators in regards to diversity equity and inclusion training which will i believe uh will start in about a week or two lastly we'll talk about an educational omnibus bill and lastly a quick uh a preview of a negotiation update so first up is uh covet 19 updates our our priorities remain the same since march okay we the district has been doing outstanding uh in regards to the the three priorities that it's been like a beacon for all of our stakeholders our teachers our students and our parents and the rest of our community members it's safety and wellness number one number two learning and number three communication um i provide the board with the the metrics every week uh this is the latest metrics from the two page county public health uh department uh the two page remains in substantial community transmission level uh we are more substantial than last week um the trend arrows you see in orange are up um and and it's it's quite quite frustrating to see this uh week to week but i will do what i normally do at our board meeting here is just go line by line that first row basically is from the illinois department of public health uh department it's an orange there with their uh trend arrow uh uh which is up uh which is also considered substantial new cases for 100 000 per week we're at 330 per week uh which is up from last week weekly case count trend uh we are currently in year 2020 so we start off at week one last year we went up to week 53 so i'll re read that uh real quick so from week 52 to 53 there was an uptick of 28 and from week 53 to this new year week one on 2021 uh a plus four percent there uh we like that number there uh like everyone else here it's minimal uh really happy with that weekly youth count less than 20 year old um individuals case count per trend week 52 to 53 we signed an increase of plus 40 percent week 53 the week one for 2021 we see a plus 22 substantial uh with an arrow up uh the weekly test positivity for dupage is 9.5 which is up from last week i believe is what 9.2 which puts us in a substantial and our neighboring regional indicators is stable there at this moment region 8 has been moved and i i don't know why they didn't update this but yesterday we have had message from the governor where we're in tier 2 mitigation which really doesn't affect the school too much it affects mostly restaurants bars fitness areas and so forth and in regards to youth athletics uh the private uh sectors it affects them a little bit there so this is our metrics from from the uh due page next slide which we like to show here this is case uh covet case uh per per month per date as you could see that spike was in that november december and we're seeing overall overall uh a trend down which is positive okay trend down positive but if you took it relatively compared to the rest of the graph we know it's it's it's up that's why we have a positivity rate of 9.8 um in in due page um next slide please this is covet cases per age level from uh our youth uh basically from zero to 19 years old as you can see the red 15 and 19 years old are they usually track higher uh in regards to covet cases followed by 5 to 14 and our pre preschoolers at zero to four their cases are much lower than the other groups you see there here's another graph another graph if you don't like uh this is more of a bar graph in regards to age from zero to four from the far left highest from ages 15 to 19. kind of the same sort of infra trend that we've been seeing in that age group for the last couple of months now a little closer to home uh this is wood dale numbers last 14 days positivity rate is 8.92 set last seven days is 8.21 um above 8 and bensonville uh last 14 days is at 7.93 last seven days is at 7.8 uh before we went on our winter break uh we announced our community to the board that hey look we're preparing for a hybrid sometimes when we come back uh when it's safe uh when we're out of substantial and we want to know uh from our parents and students who would choose to go in hybrid and who who chose to go and remote um here are the scorecard as of today um we put two weeks of of survey uh we even extended a couple more days and we're accepting folks if they're coming in a little bit late uh if there are some um uh stimulating uh uh situation at home so right there you get it uh 338 families chose hybrid and about 1100 chose remote was this uh was it parent response or student response it was a parent response okay we needed to hear our parents thanks in regards to exciting news here very very excited uh as you know vaccination uh has landed in dupage uh both pfizer and moderna uh vaccines are here um approximately two weeks ago the superintendents of dupage was given a call from the dupage county public health and the regional office of education basically stating hey look we would like to distribute um vaccines at your site at your sites fenton being one of the most most most of the sites are high school uh uh uh setting up and we move aggressively to be one of the first hopefully providers um we did a lot of legworks a lot of phone calls in regards to that fenton has two partners as of today in regards to vaccination okay and that's uh jewel oscar pharmacy in bensonville and elmer's hospital okay those are the two healthcare providers that we have contacted and say hey look when you get the dogs we would like to for your agency uh to vaccinate our staff we are also joined with district two um bensonville and wooddale district seven so the three district the tri district uh will converge at fenton to receive their vaccinations for their staff really looking forward to that great conversation boy jewel oscar pharmacy invincibility is just outstanding shout out to them real easy to work with answered my question i answered their question in regards to that same thing with elmer's hospital just an outstanding organization very easy to work with so what are we waiting for we are wait basically waiting for uh the vaccines to arrive uh at the dupage county public health department which is basically um uh the hub that will distribute it to to the or the hospitals so what are the conversation with these two agencies the geological and elmer's you basically talked about facilities uh protocols uh agreements insurance coverage um that conversation continues um and uh and new things arises so i think the most important thing is identifying uh who will be our provider and identifying how we're going to get vaccinated the vaccine vaccination will take here on our campus um and we'll probably be in the fieldhouse more to come on that um we are just definitely very excited we believe this is a game changer uh for for many good reasons uh had a great conversation with uh the dupage county public health today uh just real quickly group 1a okay that's basically your healthcare providers in the hospitals and your long-term staff and residents are in group 1a they are being vaccinated uh daily um dupay county public health has reported they are vaccinating uh 1500 individuals per week in dupage uh there are approximately 58 000 um individuals in group 1a after group 1a is completed they group the public health department will move to group 1b which includes educators which includes us uh in that group um uh hot off the process uh our meeting today uh it was reported that they are tentatively they will tentatively start group one b january 25th so that's great news i think we have our ducks uh in a row here uh finding our provider getting our facilities uh ready for this to take place very very excited about that so as it develops i will continue to report to the board uh in regards to that uh in regards to that just another top another comment here we put out a survey to our staff basically asking who's interested in a vaccination and who's not so we have that that number to provide to our providers district 2 and district 7 are doing the same thing next slide real quick so what is defending the learning plan due to the covet dupage metrics communication transmission level of substantial phantom will continue to follow the recommendation of the dupage public health department and remain in remote learning uh special population as you know which includes kids with connectivity issues students uh our ells english language learners special education or students who just need a place to study are welcome to do their work here at fhs we have been doing this i believe since october and we do have students coming in for that we will continue to collaborate with the dupage public health department school districts uh and other superintendents um in dupage our staff obviously are teachers and uh we will continue to and monitor the cobin metrics uh when they come week to week any questions there you shout out again to our staff our teachers who's who's really supporting our students day to day you shout out to our tommy kobold and his crew for ppes as students come in uh to do their work and keeping our staff here safe from the from the virus whether it's disinfecting um and so forth so um just real happy of where we're at with that moving on to our equity initiatives from a financial perspective um just real quickly we all know equity is a journey right equity has always been a journey here and there's going to be some hiccups there's going to be some real difficult things to uh to to to overcome a lot of barriers but we are committed as a school district um our next topic is about uh equity uh so far we have uh reported how we incorporate equity in our professional development our finance our finances our student clubs curriculum and dean's department with uh restorative justice last last month uh this evening for mr uh chris martin our chief school business officers uh officer he will discuss how fenton practices equity through a financial perspective i mean here's the bottom line we can talk about equity but if we don't put our money for our mouth mountain where it's it's it's all um it's all talk so bruce speaks yours okay thanks for that introduction mr ontanko um yes i'm happy to report uh the equity equity initiatives from a finance financial perspective um so equity effect in high school uh how has fenton utilizes financial resources to support equity um and then i can also want to uh emphasize the fact that our annual budget is aligned to support the goals um the 2018 uh the 2021 strategic goals that have with an equity uh emphasis uh ingrained in that those objectives um and as we look at the objectives on this slide uh you know what we're charged really with ensuring the teachers have the materials resources and training they need to design an equitable classroom and we provide to provide access to programs and strategies that support the goal of equity and enable all students to succeed so those are the objectives that we feel that the charge is for us to continue the equity journey at fenton high school just to kind of re-emphasize the funding sources within the district we have low local state and funding federal sources federal sources would include grants as well and the breakout there the majority of our funding comes from local sources at 89 state sources are 7 to 10 percent and federal sources are 3 to 4 um what are we doing to promote equity in the classroom um you know this past summer was a pretty robust summer uh uh in an unusual summer uh as well uh given the fact that we likely kind of had a pretty strong idea we would be starting out the school year um a little bit differently than what we are accustomed to doing uh at the beginning of a school year and as we know that began uh in a remote setting so um we knew that we had to be prepared for that wanted to be prepared for that our professional learning and growth opportunities um were in in full high gear last summer um and there was a lot of activities going on mrs papa nikola i don't think she slept the whole summer so congratulations uh michelle to that and those initiatives and i think really the true winners of that uh you know training uh really uh teachers carrying that down to our students so and uh we did have some cares act money federal funding uh that came to us that to support that remote learning uh initiative for our our pd uh last summer uh experiential learning opportunities such as the boston stem trip and second story funded through title 1 funds our digital learning platforms for all equal opportunity schools which really emphasize access to rigorous learning parent involvement through the highlander institute which is a pretty unique and robust program for parents and then summer school bridge and extension programs and that grew last summer it'll likely grow even more this summer those those programs um continue on with the equity in the classroom student support programs sel which is our social emotional learning initiatives um which include ruler training uh castle partnerships to support that initiative restorative justice as mr antengu just said our deans presented that topic last month and um went into great depth about uh how we're uh handling discipline um you know issues with with students and how that looks so differently now and uh we feel uh feel we're really on the on the cutting edge with making some great progress there um bison time really is in essence you know a resource period for our students daily to get extra support from their uh teachers each and every day i think every day but tuesdays during a normal uh traditional school year but it's still happening even under these the setting we're in now uh bison buddies another support program our link crew which is new this year but it's really to support our freshman students transitioning into the high school so um that is kicking off uh it started preliminary work last spring and continues on this year um and then some of the activities and clubs that we support um and that are supported by our staff and board twenty eight uh six uh athletic teams and 28 clubs so a pretty good selection um i'd say a very good selection for students to participate in um throughout clinton high school throughout their academic career here um technology this is this is obviously a critical piece even more so i would say this year than than ever before you know mr batson talked a little bit earlier this evening about chromebooks read students we're on our eighth year of our program there so um you know a student a freshman has issued a chromebook on day one and then carries that through for his his or her four years at fenton um that device uh we think we have uh good solid devices that that are durable um if there is a problem with the device we have lenders so we don't we know how critical that piece of you know equipment is uh for learning and for students to to progress and for teachers quite honestly so we don't want anyone to be have downtime with it with the device that needed some some attention our hot spots so students can check these out to the library uh there are no costs so you know families that have difficulty connecting to the internet don't have internet or for whatever reason need to connect we have resources for them to uh such as hotspots to provide them internet access we funded offset uh that fund that expense with cares act funding again so we participated in a program with the regional office of education that that provided funding for that initiative and then we also just recently obtained some additional hot spots through t-mobile a program there um that was as a for no cost to the district so we're pleased to be able to support that as well e-rate funds i think you probably heard about this in in the past and what we do we're we're a recipient of uh funds from the federal government to support um network infrastructure and connectivity for kids students um so that really is what we've built our uh infrastructure with uh has been with e-rate funds so um another round of that will be coming i believe next year uh jim benson can speak to that i think next month more thoroughly on that but that that's a piece that is necessary we'll continue to build on a new program this year internet essentials program sponsored by comcast it's free broadband to qualifying families so um again families that are new to comcast that don't have access and don't currently have internet need internet they can get it free for a year there's an application process that they would file through the district but we sponsored that and and we're happy to do that um also a number of different software applications and these are just a few that support our educational mission we video padlet equate io near pod defined learning calendly all these things are utilized to enhance and support our educational mission and learning within fenton um and then we recently um uh were granted 50 laptop computers mr ontanka was instrumental in obtaining those and uh we were able to donate them to families that did not have the means or or a device that we were happy to provide to them so that was a great uh i think program and kudos to mr anthony for making that happen on the communication front uh what are we doing in terms of promoting uh you know our message out there and getting the word out of the programs and resources that we offered fencing uh the superintendent's message the weekly words that come out in in bilingual fashion um i i know great uh james and rick work very hard and getting that out every week and provided as much information as we possibly can bundle in that you know weekly package uh community newsletter letters across both communities wooddale and bensonville we continue to participate in that initiative and you know we have a pretty prominent role in that in both communities and and we're very happy to have that uh exchange of information with the other uh communities uh taxing bodies in the communities uh community newspapers um you know we're uh you know happy uh and i think we've gotten uh more so involved in publications and promoting the district and with the programs and good things that are happening here um on an ongoing basis uh a coat drive we participated in i think this is the second or third year um through the rotary i'm glad to be a part of that to uh you know pass new coats out to our families that are in need and students that that may need a coat um i know many of you are involved in the northern light food pantry distribution when we have food trucks here and whatnot i mean it's a great effort it's great to see people come out and distribute food it's it's unfortunate that the lions are as long as they are but uh there is a resource and and we're happy to be a part of that to assist with uh getting uh you know food to families that are in need of that um we also pretty regularly um uh you know email text voice uh to our families um and parents and and and staff to get the word out and share that information whatever it may be related to school information um the chicago bears is another communication piece we just heard about that a little bit earlier with mrs mullins but our students and staff were recognized through the bears and so that was a great recognition for fenton high school and a couple of other programs here um the b-pac program padres unidos polish outreach all those programs are supported with grant funds at fenton high school and then other supports um our bison cultural connection that's a 21st century grant that is a tremendous program it's it's really uh been uh spearheaded by a couple of really talented people to um promote and encourage and increase our participation um it's even as challenging as these times have been we've had good participation with homework help and assistance and sat support and all those types of things uh you know we some of the programs have been scaled back in the interim but that will continue to expand as we as we move forward such as cooking classes drama classes um field trips and things like that to expose kids to different opportunities um and it's just a really a great opportunity for kids to partake in all of our students have the uh access to that um to participate and that's that's funded through a grant um that is i think it's in its second year maybe third year this year of that um the other thing i know james is very proud of the fact and as we all are supposed that the meals that we serve to our community ever since this pandemic has kind of shut us down or tried to shut us down we still operate but in a different manner um you know we've been serving meals seven days a week and i know mr ontango was adamant about no we're not just going to do it on school days we're going to do it every day of the week and we've been doing that since march and that's through the national school lunch program and there's no questions asked when kids come in uh it's it's free to all of our families or our students um school-age kids and uh you know it's a great program and it's continuing to grow um which is which is a good thing the next two items the fee waivers and student fee analysis you know we're taking a look at those things and how we might better serve families and students with how we assess fees and charge fees and collect fees so we'll continue to evaluate that likely make some recommendations bring them forth and keep the board apprised of what the status is on on that and where we're going with what we recommend to go forward with that process and then finally portrait of graduate again many of you were very uh intimately involved in that process that was finished up i think last spring and uh that's in play i think starting now i believe right mr untangle so that's a that's a great program that i know he's worked very hard on making happen and then you know the building facility initiatives as the board knows the facility assessment uh audit is in progress it kind of got a little bit of a hiccup there with with things but that is continuing and will continue um and uh finally our safety security and accessibility so with with what's happening now with the whole world and the pandemic and whatnot um you know we think we've made some great uh improvements to the building uh with regard to safety security accessibility ppe supplies temperature readings protocols uh we worked very hard on that kudos to dr benson for putting that all together taking the lead on that so that's been a uh a challenge but uh i think we've met the challenge and continuing to meet it and then finally you know as as mr antego said at the beginning of the presentation equity you know it's never ending it's an ongoing process and um you know we are this i hope demonstrates some of that and and as we go on tonight with some other reports you'll you'll hear more about it as it uh it continues so um with that i i guess i'll turn it over to i believe dr benson and mrs uh papa nicolao unless you have any questions before we move on from me so i'll continue under with our equity report dr benson and mrs papanika will provide us an update regarding our district equity leadership team dealt in our upcoming diversity equity and inclusion training dr benson and mrs pickle uh papa niklau floor is yours thanks james so uh just to piggyback on what bruce was talking about we're very excited to have our first district equity leadership team meeting with led by dr yvette dubial for this semester and it happened occurred last friday very vibrant discussion really good participation about a three-hour meeting and uh really was able to kick-start where we're moving as far as this this leadership team which as you recall it's consisted of teachers um social workers uh guidance counselors and uh and administrators but a variety of staff members are involved in so it's a wide range of of viewpoints and discussions so very very very vibrant um so some of the things that were discussed were we're moving forward with establishing an equity action plan that's the term that dr dubial had mentioned um and so that's we're just in the beginning phases of that but clearly that's what we want we want a comprehensive plan for our district uh the the method the method of getting there is to basically break into what what's called the five systemic strands of equities kind of a well-known approach in the equity world where you kind of break down your organization into these five strands and uh dr dubial as she was leading us through the meeting allowed the group members to self-select so we have a nice distribution in these five uh strands and um you know we're looking forward to where that's that's gonna lead but this way what we have is we have uh a diverse group in each category you know working specifically in those areas is where it's going to lead to but when we talk about systems what we're talking about how can we advance equity in our policies our procedures our decision making so that's sort of an all-over encompassing view and for example i know james is in that that strand along with bruce jim batson um amongst other staff members but you know what are we looking at holistically then there's also teaching and learning where it's an equity driven pedagogy what are we doing instructionally what are we doing with our assessments are equitable equitable in our approach and so that uh is that strand uh third strand is student voice climate and culture pretty self-explanatory how do we get feedback from our students input how do we hear their stories and and how do we allow that to create the most positive culture that we can professional learning what kind of opportunities are we providing our staff and and we're already in the process of doing this and and uh miss papa nicholas going to explain uh in the next slide kind of what we're doing professionally so our our all of our staff can be developed and embrace equity and then finally we have family and community as agency so again how can we engage the community how can we engage our parents and so they can support our students and uh and our school district so those five strands again equally important there's not one that's more important than another uh and we got to focus on all of them as we as we move forward on this equity journey which uh dr dubio reminded us doesn't have an end point we're constantly striving thanks dr thanks bruce um that was a great intro to um you know i just have to say bruce is great at um ensuring funds that we need to do all of the work that we're doing and he never hesitates at supporting anything that has to do with equity so um when he talks about all of those things he's he's a key player in ensuring that we have what we need to make that happens i just wanted to mention that and then uh sam thanks for talking about the dealt process i think um part of that um you mentioned the strand of professional development um you know is going to be a whole action plan they'll be really deliberate um next steps they'll be very deliberate goals that we'll set and how to move forward um in the interim while we are developing those goals and action steps it was really important to set a a very solid baseline foundational understanding of what diversity education and inclusion means to us as an organization there's plenty of um staff members that have been through different kinds of trainings whether they've been in intensive trainings or they've just gone to a workshop some of them maybe review especially for our certified staff or certain members of our certified staff but some of us we do especially for our support staff um we are planning um a six-part training um one hour each training session they're going to be held monday afternoons um where we have it built into our schedule right after our systems of support dr dubial is going to facilitate this as well and um you'll see there's six sessions we have the dates set already the first one is taking place january 25th so monday is our very first dei training um the first one will be an overview of equity equity 101 we'll talk about some vocabulary what the languages behind this work will go into understanding implicit bias um in session two micro micro aggressions in session three social constructs of self positionality and spheres of influence in session four uh stereotype threat coded racial language in session five and then finally in session six bystander versus upstanders and um proactive solutions to incidents of hate so is this something that um if anyone on the board would be interested would it be something that we also could just um tune into and listen or is this something that's just for um the staff um dr dubio has a couple of different opportunities available some are for staff members some are for board members we've been working james and i are determining which ones are the most appropriate for each um you know each uh stakeholder group um i i don't see but i do think that james in a vet were talking about what to do with the board next so i don't want to overstep with that great question juliet i am in conversation with dr dubial in regards to professional development for for our board in regards to dei uh we haven't ironed that out yet uh and online for that as well so i will keep you posted on that but that conversation is taking place so that the board uh can have professional developments in regards to diversity equity and inclusion training so more to come there um thank you for asking that question i know you guys are all enter or interested in that uh so we will make that happen okay okay thank you yeah yeah this this um training in particular we're trying to target towards um our staff our administration and all support staff that's directly involved with students so although this is you know our first step in um training and there's obviously going to be a lot more along the way um even for different stakeholder groups this is the this one's a pretty big one and that we're going to capture you know over probably around 200 members of our organization um with this and um but you know as we work through the equity action plan we'll have a very clear and explicit manner of which we ensure that all members of the organization are trained appropriately and um you know with the right content and um with the right topics and and um approach so um yeah we're excited to get started um you know we we talked to our dell team was meeting a little bit before um dr yvette started working with us this last week and we said should we start this now should we wait till the action plan is done and they're like let's go let's do this our our staff is enthusiastic about this work they're excited about getting started and and you know we're passionate about it so we we hope to learn a great deal over the next few months here thank you michelle great this leads us to our next topic here is a educational omnibus bill i just wanted to make sure you're aware of it this was uh really supported by the black caucus as well as the latinx caucus this legislation passed both chambers and is waiting for the approval of the governor the governor uh we believe is going to sign this bill and so therefore we need uh to unpack it uh when when when when it is signed uh the provision of this bills include additional graduation requirements i believe one of the uh provision is a a foreign language additional curriculum requirement requirement events of black history month uh computer science standards accelerated placement program which basically if you take a state assessment and you exceed meet and exceed you are put in a rigorous class and also uh underrepresented teacher recruitment and scholarship so just wanted the board to be aware of this it hasn't been signed yet but this is something that the administration will uh unpack when it is approved next up is negotiation update just real quickly met with floss last friday we are ready to go uh schedule meetings on february 8th and february 12th all right thank you all uh now we move on to the consent agenda does anyone have any questions or anything they want to discuss regarding the consent agenda no i i'm sorry um question about um uh like the uh the speech team is still competing obviously um wondering um like how some meets um there's more payment for some needs versus others like um with elk grove versus willowbrook you know 300 versus 800 dollars like how do we provide that many judges for those meets that they get paid for those events petty you were getting cut off could you could you ask the question again um you know what i yes i will um we're the speech team is being still competing and i was just wondering why some why we're probably like eight judges for one meet and um versus three or four for another beat i mean like where that were the meats that big or that that different that we had to provide more judges or just i just kind of caught my attention all right i think i could answer that and yo bond you jump in here it depends on how big the meats are and how many individuals i'm sure that this virtually so each for each topic there should be a judge i'm assuming if it's eight one competition and three another competition it's really the number of students i believe that are participating you'll find any input yeah i know that's uh that that's exactly it so it's the size of the meat um that matters you have to bring so many judges um because obviously they can't they shouldn't be judging your students they need to be judging others so it's the size of the beat that goes into that and we we um we compensate our our own judges for that okay thank you oh if you could restate that where we're at with the consent agenda sure well i just asked if anyone had any questions or any comments regarding the consent agenda uh good question patty uh does anyone else have any questions president william i just wanted to remind the board the approval of the press policies the summary had that policy meeting we went through the 22 revisions of policies most of them are endnotes and uh law notes there uh that's why it's here in letter g uh we asked the board in december uh to have that first and second reading there and to be approved uh here at this meeting just a friendly reminder what that is all right thank you james um yeah if there's no other further questions then uh may have a motion to approve the consented agenda as presented so moved may have a second second all right thank you patty roll call please peyton howell yes garlic yes big girl yes regal yeah thing paul pond yes yes all right motion is passed we move on to the discussion action items the first one is the resolution uh operating preparation and publication of fiscal year 2022 excuse me tentative budget so we are moving on already to next year's budget uh james i'm gonna pass it to bruce uh yes you are absolutely right mr uh wiedermann it is time uh to uh seek authority uh formally from the board to begin the budget process uh for next school year the 2021-22 school year this is an annual requirement to officially establish the fiscal year and designate the administration to prepare the budget and publish it going forward so we're asking the board to approve the resolution to uh authorize that to happen okay thank you bruce uh any questions if not then may have a motion that the board of education adopt the resolution authorizing preparation and publication of the punitive budget for fiscal year 2021 to 2022. thank you marianne and i'm sorry who is second this kid oh okay kid thank you um world cup please peyton hole yes big guerrilla yes regal yes yes yes yes all right then motion has passed we move on to the food service contract amendment uh if you could take that sure there's another amendment um in regards to our food contract i believe is the lowering or price bruce has more uh uh concrete picture of this bruce on to you yeah thanks mr untangle uh yes that's right um this is number two as it states there um in october not that long ago the board approved an amendment to the uh contract our first amendment i guess as you would call that um and that's for a meal rate adjustment and part of their rationale for asking for an adjustment and increase was the fact that meal participation was low in production costs were exceeding the cost of what they were getting in return uh from the district for the rate the original contracted rate bisbee does allow for you to amend the contract you have to go through a process and this is the process so attached uh we've included that meal rate adjustment um form that the vendor completes and then the district would sign off on it submit that to isb to make it uh formalized and approved so uh but i'm pleased to report now that and and when we agreed to the price increase harper also agreed that if the pricing uh was uh participation increased their prices pricing went down they would lower the price as well so that's what we have for you the participation i'm happy to report has increased their costs have gone down and their meal rate uh will go down so in either case you uh even prior to the first amendment or this and this amendment our reimbursement uh is exceeding uh what they're charging so in both cases uh in this case it's a little bit more important than what it was the first goal so um it's just a process to to approve this um these quarterly but we're recommending that the board of proposed meal rate adjustment uh and we'll continue to keep the border price if there's any other adjustments hopefully if we bring any more to you they will go further down but right now it's good news that the operation was going down from them okay thank you bruce thank you jane um and if there are no other questions may have a motion that the board of education approved the attack group of contract amendment november 1 2020 for the meal rate adjustments as presented so moved a second second yes thank you juliet thank you kid can have a roll call please peyton holm yes regal team you're muted katie you're on mute she's frozen um i said yes oh okay thank you figueroa yes wiedemann yes all right uh motion has passed uh the next item is a discussion on the item regarding the review of the 2021-2022 sk school calendar year uh james please sure we started working on our 2021-2022 school calendar once again this is a draft uh draft that

dl9rD6Gdgvc | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dl9rD6Gdgvc | Orthogonal Diagonalization of a Symmetric Matrix | welcome back everyone let's take another look at a symmetric matrix and talk about its orthogonal diagonalization you see a matrix a right here which is very easy to check that it is a symmetric matrix one can show that the eigenvalues of this matrix are seven and negative two and one you calculate the eigen basis for these two eigenvalues the seven space get to not get the basis of 1 0 1 and negative 1/2 1 0 you get that from the rref of a minus 7i and then a basis for that the negative 2 eigen space you get negative 1 negative 1 happened 1 now if you're not in love with these fractions of course you can always kind of replace a vector with the nonzero scalar multiple so you could always you could replace this first one with say if you times it by 2 you could get negative 1 to 0 if you prefer and you could also replace this one over here a few times that scale that by 2 you get a negative 1 I'm sorry negative 2 negative 1 and 2 like those so you can make those substitutions if you don't prefer the fractions I just listed the matrix that the rref of the a minus lambda I wouldn't give you here and one should check that these vectors are in fact orthogonal with each other if you take 1 0 1 and u dot it with negative 2 negative 1 and 2 notice you end up with negative 2 plus 0 plus 2 which is 2 that's sorry 0 excuse me so that one's orthogonal likewise if you take negative 1 to 0 and u dot it with negative 2 negative 1 2 you end up with 2 minus 2 which equals 0 so vectors from different eigen spaces are gonna be orthogonal with each other because the original matrix was in fact symmetric right but we don't have the situation where if take the vectors from the the 7 space if you take their dot product you don't see 0 in that situation so we get 1 0 1 and you dot that with negative 1 to 0 you'll see this time you get negative 1 plus 0 plus 0 which is negative 1 which is not 0 so the basis for the 7 eigen space is not worth ah g''l but we can't apply the gram-schmidt process to make it orthogonal and we're not gonna apply the gram-schmidt process to the entire eigenbasis we do have an eigenbasis in front of us we're only gonna do it just to the seventh space and so we're gonna take our first vector we'll just take the vector v1 to be one zero one we don't have to change it for the second vector v2 remember we take the second vector negative one to zero and we subtract from it this dot product we take the first vector dot the second vector which we did that a moment ago that was a negative one and then we divide this by the length well the dot product of the first vector with itself which is going to give us a 2 and then we times that by the first vector 1 0 1 so just applying the usual grahame-smith formula here if we continue to simplify this we will end up with negative 1 to 0 and then we're subtracting here I guess we're actually adding 1/2 right so you get 1/2 0 and 1/2 right there so combining those together you end up with negative 1 plus 1/2 which would give us a negative 1/2 2 plus 0 and 0 plus 1/2 like that if you don't like the 1/2 you can factor it out again and so you get negative 1/4 and one right there and so we can kind of scratch out that 1/2 part and we can take this to be our second vector in the forthcoming orthogonal eigen basis we take one zero one right here and then the other vector we had we don't need to change it from the from the negative to eigen space what do we have before that negative 2 negative 1 1 I can't see it on the screen anymore but we take negative take v3 to be that vector right there the negative 2 negative 1 and 2 and so these three vectors combine to make Captain Planet i JK it out that one this is gonna form for us an orthogonal iein basis we still do have AI ghen vectors you can check by multiplying these three matrices by the original matrix but it's also the pairwise orthogonality should still be clear right we didn't change V 1 and V 3 those are the same if you take V 3 with V 2 right here your dot product turns out to be 2 minus 4 plus 2 that's a 0 so we still have that but also if you take V 1 V 2 right here you end up with negative 1 plus 0 plus 1 that's a 0 right now so we now have orthogonal ax t between all of them so if you want an orthogonal basis you just do the gram-schmidt process to each individual eigen space because different eigen spaces will always be already be in the orthogonal complements of each other all right but to find this orthogonal diagnose ation we have to find an orthogonal matrix which is the name is somewhat of a misnomer to find a right here we're looking for this PD PT P inverse right which we could just do as PT we're gonna take our matrix but the columns of our matrix is going to be an orthonormal basis so we take these vectors and we're going to normalize them so the 1 the 1 0 1 if we take its normal vector that's going to be the length of that vector gives us the square root of 2 so we're gonna take as our first column 1 or the square root of 2 0 and then 1 over the square root of 2 for the second vector right here we have this negative 1 for 1 and so we want to normalize that you get 1 squared plus 4 squared plus 1 square that gives you 18 all inside of the square root the normalization will look like negative 1 or the square root of 18 you get 4 over the square root of 18 and then you're gonna get 1 or the square of 18 please don't be have any desire to rationalize the denominators it's not gonna really give you much benefit in this situation and then negative 2 negative 1 1 if you normalize that the length of that vector you get 4 1 4 that's a 9 so square root of 9 is a 3 so the length of V 3 is 3 so did I everything by three you get two thirds negative two thirds I mean negative one-third and then two thirds so this is our vector P right there the matrix D is gonna be the diagonal matrix whose eigen values were what we get happy for we had two eigenvalues seven seven and negative two negative seven was a repeated eigenvalue make sure you put the eigen dies in the same order as you did the eigen vectors it doesn't matter which order you use long as it's the same between them and then to find the inverse of our orthogonal matrix we only have to take the transpose which is very simple right you might be looking at all those square roots you're like oh no the arithmetic is gonna be horrible but guess what we don't have to do any arithmetic because we just have to transpose the matrix right it takes a little bit extra arithmetic dealing with these square roots and such but then there's a huge trade off at moments like this right here or I'm just writing the columns as now rows and so now we have or orthogonal diagonalization and you could verify by multiplying this thing out that this is equal to the original matrix as a reminder it was up here the symmetric matrix but you can verify that and I would encourage you to do so just to verify this but we found an orthogonal diagonals ation this is a diagonalization we're seen that the matrix a right here is in fact similar to a diagonal matrix and in fact that this this connecting matrix P is an orthogonal matrix its columns form an orthonormal orthonormal basis an orthonormal eigen basis

lombardia eastern lombard lombarda a is one of the 20 administrative regions of Italy in the northwest of the country with an area of twenty-three thousand eight hundred and forty four square kilometers nine thousand two hundred and six square miles about 10 million people forming one sixth of Italy's population live in Lombardi in about a fifth of Italy's GDP is produced in the region making it the most populous and richest region in the country and one of the richest regions in Europe Milan Lombardi's capital is the second largest city in the largest metropolitan area in Italy topic etymology the word Lombardi comes from Lombard which in turn is derived from late Latin Longo bodice Lango bodice a lombard derived from the proto-germanic elements asterisk Langa's plus asterisk bard as equivalent to long beard some sources derived the second element instead from proto-germanic asterisk Bardo asterisk barda's acts related to German Bart acts during the early Middle Ages Lombardi referred to the Kingdom of the lombards Latin regnum Lango bar Durham a kingdom ruled by the Germanic lombards who had controlled most of Italy since their invasion of Byzantine Italy in 568 as such Lombardi and Italy were almost interchangeable by the mid eight century the Lombards ruled everywhere except the papal possessions around Rome roughly modern Lazio in northern Umbria Venice and some Byzantine possessions in the South southern Apulia and Calabria some coastal settlements including Amalfi gaiter Naples in Sorrento Sicily in Sardinia the kingdom was divided between Longo Bardia major in the north and Lango Bardia minor in the south which were until the 8th century separated by the Byzantine exarchate of ravenna roughly Romania and northern Marche and initially also Emilia in Liguria and the papacy which was initially part of the exarchate during the late Middle Ages after the fall of the northern part of the kingdom to Charlemagne the term shifted to mean northern Italy sea Kingdom of Italy Holy Roman Empire the term was also used until around 965 in the form Longo Bardia Longo badia as the name for the territory roughly covering modern Apulia which the Byzantines had recovered from the Lombard rump Duchy of Benevento topic geography with the surface of 20 3861 square kilometers nine thousand two hundred and thirteen square miles Lombardi is the fourth largest region of Italy it is bordered by Switzerland North Canton Ticino and Canton graubünden and by the Italian regions of trentino-alto adige südtirol in Veneto East Emilia Romagna south and Piedmont West three distinct natural zones can be fairly easily distinguished in Lombardi mountains hills and Plains the latter being divided in altar high plains and Bassett low plains topic soils the orography of Lombardi is characterized by the presence of three distinct belts a northern mountainous belt constituted by the Alpine relief a Central Piedmont area of mostly pebbly soils of alluvial origin and the Lombard section of the pattern plane in the southernmost part of the region the most important mountainous area is an Alpine zone including the lepton Tyne and recién Alps Pease Bernina 4000 and 20 meters the Bergamo Alps the or blur Alps in the a de Melo Massif it is followed by an Alpine foothills zone pre LP which include the main peaks of the grignr group 2410 metres Risa Guan 1875 metres and pres Elana 2521 metres the plains of lombardi formed by alluvial deposits can be divided into the altar an upper permeable ground zone in the north in a lower zone and the basa dotted by the so called line of fontaine ely spring waters rising from impermeable ground inconsistent with the three distinctions above made is the small sub region of oltrepò pavese ii formed by the Apennine foothills beyond the Po River topic hydrography the mighty Po River marks the southern border of the region for a length of about 210 kilometers 130 miles in its progress it receives the waters of the Ticino River which rises in the bed rate oval II Switzerland and joins the POE near pavia the other streams which contribute to the Great River at the Ilona the lambreaux the adder the olio and the min Co the numerous lakes of lombardi all of glacial origin lie in the northern highlands from west to east these are lake maggiore lake lugano both shared with Switzerland Lake Como Leakey Zao Lake lead row then Lake Garda the largest in Italy south of the Alps lie the hills characterized by a succession of low heights of marenick origin formed during the last ice age and small barely fertile plateau with typical Heath's and conifer woods a minor mountainous area the old trip opa VZ lies south of the Po in the Apennines range topic flora and fauna in the plains intensively cultivated for centuries little of the original environment remains the most Commons trees are elm alder sycamore poplar willow and hornbeam in the area of the foothills lakes however grow olive trees cypresses and largers as well as varieties of subtropical flores such as magnolias azaleas acacia s-- numerous species of endemic flora in the pre alpine area include some kinds of saxifrage the Lombard garlic ground sills bell flowers in the cottony bell flowers the highlands are characterized by the typical vegetation of the whole range of the italian alps at a lower levels up to approximately 1100 meters oak woods or broadleaf trees grow on the mountain slopes up to 2,000 to 2,200 metres beech trees grow at the lowest limits with conifer woods higher up shrubs such as rhododendron dwarf pine and juniper and native to the summit are zone beyond 2200 meters Lombardi counts many protected areas the most important of the stoll vo National Park the largest Italian natural park with typically alpine wildlife Red Deer Road deer ibex Shinhwa foxes ermine and also Golden Eagles and the Ticino Valley natural park instituted in 1974 on the Lombard side of the Ticino River to protect and conserve one of the last major examples of flooville forests in northern Italy topic climate Lombardi has a wide array of climates due to local variances in elevation proximity to inland water basins and large metropolitan areas the climate of the region is mainly humid subtropical köppen CFA especially in the plains though with significant variations to the köppen model especially regarding the winter season that in Lombardy is normally long damp and rather cold in addition there is a high seasonal temperature variation in Milan the average January temperature is two point five degrees Celsius thirty-six point five degrees Fahrenheit and twenty four degrees Celsius seventy five degrees Fahrenheit in July a peculiarity of the regional climate is the thick fog that covers the plains between October and February in the Alpine foothills characterized by an oceanic climate köppen cfb numerous lakes exercise a mitigating influence allowing the cultivation of typically Mediterranean crops olives citrus fruit in the hills and mountains the climate is humid continental Coppin DFB in the valleys it is relatively mild while it can be severely cold above 1500 metres with copious snowfalls precipitation is more intense in the pre Alpine zone up to 1,500 to 2,000 millimetres 59 point one two seventy eight point seven in annually but is abundant also in the plains and Alpine zones with an average of 600 to 850 millimeters 23.62 33.5 in annually the total annual rainfall is on average 827 millimeters topic history you topic prehistory and antiquity the area of current Lombardi was settled at least since the second millennium BC as shown by the archeological findings of ceramics arrows axes and carved stones well-preserved rock drawings left by ancient communiy in the valcamonica depicting animals people and symbols were made over a time period of 8,000 years preceding the iron age based on about three hundred thousand records the many artifacts pottery personal items and weapons found in the crop list near the lake maggiore and lake to Chino demonstrate the presence of the Gila Secor Bronze Age culture that prospered in western Lombardi between the 9th and the 4th century BC in the following centuries it was inhabited by different peoples among whom the Etruscans who founded the city of Mantova and spread the use of writing later starting from the 5th century BC the area was invaded by Celtic Gallic tribes these people settled in several cities including Milan and extended their rule to the Adriatic Sea their development was halted by the Roman expansion in the Po Valley from the 3rd century BC onwards after centuries of struggle in 194 BC the entire area of what is now Lombardi became a Roman province with the name of Gallia Cisalpine Gaul on the inner side with respect to Rome of the Alps the Roman culture and language overwhelmed the former civilization in the following years and Lombardi became one of the most developed and rich areas of Italy with the construction of a wide array of roads and the development of agriculture and trade important figures like Pliny the Elder in Como and Virgil in Mantova were born here in late antiquity the strategic role of Lombardi was emphasized by the temporary moving of the capital of the Western Empire to medial Arnhem Milan here in 313 ad Roman Emperor Constantine issued the famous Edict of Milan that gave freedom of confession to all religions within the Roman Empire topic Kingdom of the lombards during an after the fall of the Western Empire Lombardi suffered heavily from destruction brought about by a series of invasions by tribal peoples the last and most effective was that of the Germanic Lombards or Longo body whose whole nation migrated here from the Carpathian Basin in fear of the conquering Pannonian of ours in 568 and whose long lasting reign with its capital in Pavia gave the current name to the region there was a close relationship between the Frankish Bavarian and Lombard nobility for many centuries after the initial struggles relationships between the Lombard people in the Latin speaking people improved in the end the Lombard language and culture assimilated with the Latin culture leaving evidence in many names the legal code and laws and other things the genes of the lombards became quickly diluted into the Italian population owing to their relatively small number and the geographic dispersal in order to rule and administer the kingdom the end of Lombard rule came in 774 when the Frankish king Charlemagne conquered pavía deposed Desiderius the last Lombard King and annexed the Kingdom of Italy mostly northern and central present-day Italy to his empire the former Lombard Dukes and Nobles were replaced by other German vassals prince-bishops or Marcus's topic communes in the empire in the 10th century Lombardi formerly under the rule of the Holy Roman Empire like much of central northern Italy was in fact divided in a multiplicity of small autonomous city-states the medieval communes the 11th century marked a significant boom in the region's economy due to improved trading and mostly agricultural conditions with arms manufacture a significant factor in a similar way to other areas of Italy this led to a growing self acknowledgement of the cities whose increasing richness made them able to defy the traditional feudal supreme power represented by the German Emperor's in their local legate's this process reached its apex in the 12th and 13th centuries when different Lombard leagues formed by allied cities of Lombardi usually led by Milan managed to defeat the Hohenstaufen Emperor Frederick the first at Legg nonno and his grandson Frederick the second at Parma subsequently among the various local city-states a process of consolidation took place and by the end of the 14th century two scenarios emerged as rival hegemons in Lombardi Milan and Mantova topic Renaissance Duchess of Milan and mantova in the 15th century the Duchy of Milan was a major political economical and military force at the European level Milan and Mantova became two centres of the Renaissance whose culture with men such as Leonardo da Vinci and Mantegna and works of art were highly regarded for example Leonardo da Vinci's the Last Supper the enterprising class of the communes extended its trade and banking activities well into northern Europe Lombard designated the merchant or banker coming from northern Italy see for instance Lombard Street in London the name Lombardi came to designate the whole of northern Italy until the 15th century and sometimes later from the 14th century onwards the instability created by the unceasing internal and external struggles ended in the creation of noble signor EES the most significant of which were those of the Visconti's latest forces in Milan and of the Gonzaga's in Mantova this richness however attracted the now more organized armies of national powers such as France and Austria which waged a lengthy battle for Lombardi in the late 15th to early 16th centuries topic late Middle Ages Renaissance and enlightenment after the decisive battle of Pavia the Duchy of Milan became a possession of the Habsburgs of Spain the new rulers did little to improve the economy of Lombardi instead imposing a growing series of taxes needed to support their unending series of European Wars the eastern part of modern Lombardi with cities like Bergamo and Brescia was under the Republic of Venice which had begun to extend its influence in the area from the 14th century onwards see also italian wars between the middle of the 15th century and the Battle of Mariano in 1515 the northern part of East lombardi from arrow low to chair so modern Ticino and the Valtellina Valley came under possession of the old Swiss Confederacy pestilences like that of 1628 1630 described by Alessandro Manzoni in his I promise Posse and the generally declining conditions of Italy's economy in the 17th and 18th centuries halted the further development of Lombardi in 1706 the Austrians came to power and introduced some economic and social measures which granted a certain recovery Austrian rule was interrupted in the late 18th century by the French armies under Napoleon Lombardi became the center of the size Alpine Republic and of the Kingdom of Italy both being puppet states of France's first Empire having Milan as capital and Napoleon as head of state during this period Lombardi took back Valtellina from Switzerland topic modern the era the restoration of Austrian rule in 1815 as the kingdom of Lombardy Venetia was characterized by the struggle with the new ideals introduced by the Napoleonic era the popular Republic established by the 1848 revolution was short-lived its suppression leading to renewed Austrian rule this came to a decisive end when Lombardi was annexed to the Kingdom of Italy 1859 as a result of the second Italian independence war when Alex to the Kingdom of Italy in 1859 Lombardi achieved its present-day territorial shape by adding the old trip opa VZ formerly the southern part of Nevarez province to the province of Pavia topic demographics one-sixth of the Italian population or about ten million people live in Lombardi sixteen point two percent of the national population two percent of the European Union population making it the second most densely populated region in Italy after Campania the population is highly concentrated in the Milan metropolitan area two thousand inh per square kilometer and the Alpine foothills that compose the southern section of the provinces of ver s Como lecco Monza and Brianza and Bergamo 1200 inh per square kilometer a lower average population density 250 inh per square kilometer is found in the Po Valley in the lower Brescia valleys much lower densities less than 60 inh per square kilometer characterized the northern mountain areas in the southern oltrepò pavese e sub region the growth of the regional population was particularly sustained during the 1950's to 60s thanks to a prolonged economic boom high birth rates and strong migration inflows especially from southern Italy since the 1980s Lombardi has become the destination of a large number of international migrants in so much that today more than a quarter of all foreign-born residents in Italy lives in this region as of 2016 the italian national institute of statistics is t-80 estimated that 1 million one hundred thirty nine thousand four hundred and thirty foreign-born immigrants live in Lombardi equal to eleven point four percent of the total population the primary religion is Catholicism significant religious minorities include Christian Waldenses Protestants and Orthodox as well as Jews Sikh and Muslims topic economy as of 2013 the gross domestic product GDP of lombardi equal to over 350 billion euros accounts for about 21 percent of the total GDP of Italy when this measure is considered by inhabitant it results in a value of thirty three thousand and sixty six euros per inhabitant which is more than 25 percent higher than the national average of twenty five thousand seven hundred and twenty nine euros Lombardi's development has been marked by the growth of the services sector since the 1980s and in particular by the growth of innovative activities in the sector of services to enterprises and in credit and financial services at the same time the strong industrial vocation of the region has not suffered Lombardi remains in fact the main industrial area of the country the presence and development of a very high number of enterprises belonging to the services sector represents a favourable situation for the improvement of the efficiency of the productive process as well as for the growth of the regional economy Lombardi has cultural and economical relationships with foreign countries and states which include Azerbaijan Austria France Hungary the canton of Ticino and graubünden in switzerland the province of Quebec in Canada the states of Bavaria Saxony in saxony-anhalt in Germany Kuwait the province of Zout Holland in the Netherlands and Russia Lombardi is a member of the four motors of Europe an inter European economical organization which includes Baden Wurttemberg in Germany Catalonia in Spain and Auvergne Rhone Alps in France the Lombardi region is part of use ALP which promotes innovation green sustainability and economy in the alpine regions of Austria France Liechtenstein northern Italy southern Germany Switzerland and Slovenia Lombardi is also part of our jelp which gathers States located in the alpine regions of Austria northern Italy southern Germany and Switzerland to discuss similar themes as in EU s ALP economical and cultural relationship are also strong with neighboring Italian regions friuli-venezia giulia South Tirol Trentino and Veneto the European Union has developed the Central Europe program 2014 to 2020 to foster cooperation in several areas between the Lombardi region along with other northern Italian regions in several states of Central Europe the region can broadly be divided into three areas as regards the productive activity Milan where the services sector makes up for sixty five point three percent of the employment a group of provinces Marez como lecco Monza and Brianza Bergamo and Brescia highly industrialized although in the two latter ones in the plains there is also a rich agricultural sector finally in the provinces of Sandri o Pavia Cremona mantova and lawdy there is a consistent agricultural activity and at the same time an above-average development of the services sector the productivity of Agriculture is enhanced by a well-developed use of fertilisers and the traditional abundance of water boosted since the Middle Ages by the construction partly designed by Leonardo da Vinci of a wide net of irrigation systems lower Plains are characterized by fodder crops which a mode up to eight times a year cereals rice wheat and maize and sugar beet productions of the higher planes include cereals vegetables fruit trees and mulberries the higher areas up to the pre-ops and ALP sectors of the north produce fruit and wine cattle with the highest density in Italy pigs and sheep are raised the unemployment rate stood at 6.0 percent in 2018 regional unemployment was one of the lowest in Italy topic government and politics politics in Lombardy is framed within a system of representative democracy where the president of the region presidente del re gionee is the head of government and of a pluriform multi-party system executive power is vested in the regional government junta regional legislative power is vested in the regional council consul yo regional historically the moderate christian democrats maintained a large majority of the populous support and the control of the most important cities and provinces from the end of the Second World War to the early 1990s the opposition Italian Communist Party was a considerable presence only in southern Lombardi and in the working class districts of Milan the base however was increasingly eroded by the rival centrist Italian Socialist Party until eventually the mani piu light corruption scandal which spread from Milan to the whole of Italy wiped away the old political class and parties almost entirely this together with the general disaffection towards the central government considered as wasting resources to balance the budgets of the chronically underdeveloped regions of southern Italy led to the sudden growth of the secessionist northern League particularly strong in mountain and rural areas in the last twenty years Lombardi stayed as a conservative stronghold overwhelmingly voting for Silvio Berlusconi in all the six last general elections notwithstanding the capital city of Milan elected progressive Giuliano Pisapia at the 2011 municipal elections in the 2013 regional elections saw a narrow victory for the centre-right coalition on the 22nd of October 2017 a non-binding autonomy referendum took place in Lombardi the turnout was low at thirty eight point three percent yet ninety-five point three percent voted in favor the regional government of Lombardi is still under negotiation with Rome for the devolution of certain competencies topic administrative divisions the region of Lombardi is divided in 11 administrative provinces one metropolitan city in 1530 communes topic culture beside being an economic and industrial powerhouse Lombardi has a rich and diverse cultural heritage the many examples range from prehistory to the present day through the Roman period in the Renaissance and can be found both in museums and churches that enrich cities and towns around the region major tourist destinations in the region include in order of arrivals as of 2013 the historic cultural and artistic cities of Milan four million five hundred and twenty seven thousand eight hundred and eighty nine arrivals Bergamo two hundred and forty two thousand nine hundred and forty-two Brescia two hundred and twenty nine thousand seven hundred and ten Como two hundred and fifteen thousand three hundred and twenty Marez one hundred and seven thousand four hundred and forty two Mantova eighty eight thousand nine hundred

five hundred and eighty-five Isaiah one hundred and twenty three thousand three hundred and thirty-seven and Maggiore seventy 1055 topic UNESCO World Heritage Sites there are nine UNESCO World Heritage Sites wholly or partially located in Lombardi some of these comprise several individual objects in different locations one of the entries has been listed as natural heritage the others are cultural heritage sites at monte san giorgio on the border with swiss canton Ticino just south of lake lugano a wide range of marine Triassic fossils have been found during that period some 240 million years ago the area was a shallow tropical Lagoon fossils include reptiles fish and crustaceans but also some insects too sites are of prehistoric origin the rock drawings in valcamonica date back to a period between 8000 BC and 1000 BC covering prehistoric periods from the epithelia lithic Mesolithic to the iron age the engravings show depictions of a wide range of topics including agricultural and war scenes alongside more abstract symbols the multi-centered heritage site prehistoric pile dwellings around the alps includes 111 individual objects in France Switzerland Italy Germany Austria and Slovenia of which 10 are located in Lombardi each of these objects consists of remnants of buildings erected on wooden piles in subalpine rivers lakes and wetlands built between 5000 BC and 500 BC in general only the submerged wooden parts have been preserved in the alluvial sediment although in some places pile buildings have been reconstructed another multi-centered site Luongo Bard's in italy places of power 568 to 774 ad comprises seven locations across mainland Italy which illustrate the history of the Lombard period which has given the region its name two of the individual sites are in the modern region of Lombardi the fortifications the castrum and the Tauber Tower and the Church of Santa Maria Forest Portus outside the gates with its Byzantine essed frescoes at Castel Spri oh and the monastic complex of and Salvatore a Santa Giulia at Brescia the UNESCO site of Brescia also includes the remains of its Roman Forum the best preserved in northern Italy the church and Dominican convent of Santa Maria delle grazie in Milan with the Last Supper by Leonardo da Vinci represent architectural and painting styles of the Renaissance period of the 15th century the towns of mantova and sabio neat are also listed as a combined world heritage site relating to this period here focusing more on town planning aspects of the time the non architectural detail while Mantova was rebuilt in the 15th and 16th centuries according to Renaissance principles sabi Onita was planned as a new town in the 16th century the sacromonte II of Piedmont and Lombardi are a group of nine sites in Northwest Italy two of them in Lombardi the concept of holy mountains can also be found elsewhere in Europe these sites were created as centers of pilgrimage by placing

PidlFtQPobs | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PidlFtQPobs | Rhetorical Terms | Rhetoric is the ancient art of persuasive speaking which uses several proven techniques to achieve its goal. Rhetorical Devices or Figures of speech are deviations from normal sentence construction to achieve a greater effect on the reader's mind and are extensively used in rhetoric. In this unit, we will look at several important rhetorical terms. [MUSIC] Alliteration is the repetition of the same sound for each word in a sentence veni, vidi, vici! The Latin phrase attributed to Julius Caesar Even elephants enjoy eating eggs every day Betty bought a bit of butter but the bit of butter was bitter. Allusion is reference to a popular name, place, or term from literature. To be in a “Catch-22 situation”, which refers to the situation faced by the protagonist in Joseph Heller’s book of the same name. “I was surprised his nose was not growing like Pinocchio’s.” This refers to the story of Pinocchio, where his nose grew longer whenever he told a lie. It is from The Adventures of Pinocchio, written by Carlo Collodi. Anaphora is the repetition of a word or phrase at the beginning of each successive phrase, clause, or sentence. Anaphora in Greek means ‘I repeat’. “The wrong person was selected for the wrong job, at the wrong time, for the wrong purpose.” Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s popular speech, ‘I have a dream’ represents an effective use of anaphora as a rhetorical device. we shall fight – Churchill’s speech on 1940. we shall fight in France, we shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our Island, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender an excellent example of Anaphora Anticlimax is a rhetorical device which can be defined as a disappointing situation or a sudden transition in discourse from an important idea to a ludicrous or trivial one. It is when at a specific point, expectations are raised, everything is built-up and then suddenly something boring or disappointing happens “Here thou, great Anna, whom three realms obey, Dost sometimes counsel take, and sometimes tea….” court from The Rape of the Lock by Alexander Pope A funny example of anti-climax is from Jim O’Rourke’s song ‘Ghost Ship in a Storm’ - And as I'm sinkin' The last thing that I think Is, did I pay my rent? Climax is the opposite of anti-climax, where the words and phrases are arranged in ascending order of importance. Let a man acknowledge his obligations to himself, his family, his country, and his God. "I think we've reached a point of great decision, not just for our nation, not only for all humanity, but for life upon the earth. Antithesis is a literary device that is used to put two contrasting ideas together. ‘Man proposes, God disposes’ “That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.” a statement attributed to Neil Armstrong “Speech is silver, but Silence is Gold.” Apostrophe is a figure of speech where the speaker detaches from reality as addresses something imaginary. Shakespeare effectively used apostrophe in all his plays. Here’s one from Romeo and Juliet – ‘O happy dagger! This is thy sheath; there rust, and let me die.’ Twinkle, twinkle, little star, how I wonder what you are. An epigram is a witty, sarcastic statement with an amusing ending. Here’s an epigram from John Dryden: Here lies my wife: here let her lie! Now she's at rest – and so am I. "Candy/Is dandy,/But liquor/Is quicker." by Ogden Nash Euphemism is the use of a milder or inoffensive word to replace an unpleasant term. ‘Pardon my French’ is a euphemism asking excuse for the use of profanity. She is in the family way instead of saying she is pregnant. Passed away instead of died. The birds and the bees instead of sex Hyperbole is an exaggeration used for emphasis. I am so hungry I can eat a horse I’ve told you a million times! It was so cold, I saw polar bears wearing jackets. He is as skinny as a toothpick. This car goes faster than the speed of light. Understatement is the opposite of hyperbole where one writes or says less than what is intended. It is used to create comedy, to indicate modesty or for just being polite. In Monty Python’s The Meaning of Life, an army officer who just lost one of his legs in battle responds when asked about his bloodied stump - "Stings a bit." You get the highest grade in class. An understatement would be: "I did OK on that test." You scrape the entire side of your car. An understatement would be: "It is only a small scratch." Describing a huge storm overnight, an understatement would be: "Looks like it rained a bit last night." Irony can be defined as sarcasm where the user intends to express a meaning opposite to what is intended. ‘As peaceful as a rattlesnake’ is an example of an ironic simile. Water, water, everywhere, Nor any drop to drink.” The desert was as cool as a bed of burning coals. My friend’s kids get along like cats and dogs. A vehicle was parked right in front of the no-parking sign. Litotes is the use of double negatives to understate something. It is derived from the Greek word meaning ‘simple’. ‘It is impossible to not call it a failure’ is a litotes for ‘It’s a failure’. New York is not an ordinary city. You are not as young as you used to be. A million dollars is not a small amount. In a metaphor, a word or phrase is applied to something to which it is not literally applicable. ‘Her voice is music to my ears’ implies it is her voice is very soothing to me. He drowned in a sea of grief. Laughter is the best medicine. His words are pearls of wisdom. A Simile is similar to a metaphor, where two things are compared using ‘like’ or ‘as’. He arrives like a storm and leaves like another. They fought like cats and dogs. He is as strong as an ox. Watching the show was like watching grass grow. Metonymy is a figure of speech where the name of a thing is replaced with the name of its attribute. In the saying ‘pen is mightier than a sword’, pen is a metonymy for diplomacy and written words, and sword is a metonymy for military might. The given lines are from Shakespeare’s “Julius Caesar” Act I. “Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears.” The restaurant has been acting quite rude lately. The library has been very helpful to the students this morning. Onomatopoeia is a word that sounds like the meaning it describes. Famous examples are: tick-tock, cuckoo, hiccup and hum. An oxymoron consists of two terms, where each term contradicts the other. ‘Business ethics’ and ‘military intelligence’ are comical oxymorons used by the renowned stand-up comedian George Carlin. "I can believe anything, provided that it is quite incredible." - Oscar Wilde "Modern dancing is so old fashioned." - Samuel Goldwyn "I like humanity, but I loathe persons." - Edna St. Vincent Millay Paradox is a rhetoric term consisting of two opposite terms that seem absurd but is actually valid. You can save money by spending it. This is the beginning of the end. Deep down, you're really shallow. "I can resist anything but temptation." - Oscar Wilde Here are the rules: Ignore all rules. This statement is false. Parallelism is the use of repeated words or phrases to create emphasis and rhythm in a passage. ‘Easy come, easy go’ is an example of parallelism where the word ‘easy’ is repeated for emphasis. “My fellow Americans, ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country.” - John F. Kennedy "For the end of a theoretical science is truth, but the end of a practical science is performance." - Aristotle Personification means using a human attribute to describe objects or other non-human things. The wind whispered through dry grass. The flowers danced in the gentle breeze. The fire swallowed the entire forest. The shadow of the moon danced on the lake. The flowers were blooming, and the bees kissed them every now and then. Pun is a wordplay made by exploiting two different meanings of the same word. Example: I have been to the dentist so many times that I know the ‘drill’. A horse is a very stable animal. Time flies like an arrow. Fruit flies like a banana. An elephant’s opinion carries a lot of weight. She had a photographic memory but never developed it. Syllepsis is a figure of speech where a word can be applied to different components of a sentence. Syllepsis is also called zeugma. Here’s a clever use of syllepsis from Robert Bloch’s book psycho - "It was the knife that, a moment later, cut off her scream. And her head." "When I address Fred I never have to raise either my voice or my hopes." - E.B. White, "Dog Training." "You took my hand and breath away. “[They] covered themselves with dust and glory.” Synecdoche refers to a word or phrase that is a part of something, and represents the whole of it. The use of ‘glasses’ for ‘spectacles’ and ‘plastic’ for ‘credit card’ are common examples of synecdoche. The word “bread” can be used to represent food in general or money The word "wheels" refers to a vehicle. If “the world” is not treating you well, that would not be the entire world but just a part of it that you've encountered. The word “plastic” is commonly used to refer to credit cards. The word "lead" is commonly used to refer to bullets. | Lexi Magic | UCvdjP79NtIFtDm3WYSArFxw | 2017-09-13 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | detection | en | 1,659 | 9,347 |

WcjL1k6O4mI | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WcjL1k6O4mI | English Graduation Reception & Awards Ceremony, 2020 | okay well I'm told we have reached more than half the people who have signed up so that's great I'm going to go ahead and begin good afternoon my name is Krista Ratcliffe I'm chair of the Department of English at Arizona State University welcome to our graduation reception and awards ceremony each year the Department of English hosts a celebration to honor all the English department graduates as well as all the Award winners this year is obviously a little different and we're all gathered here on zoom' rather than in person at Ross Blakely Hall what is not different however is the pride that the faculty and staff in the English department at ASU have in all of you graduates what is not different I hope is the pride that you are all feeling in your own accomplishments and what is not different is that graduation ceremonies inspire speakers to invoke pithy thoughts so before I introduce today's speaker I want to open with an unlikely pairing a Nobel Prize winner Toni Morrison and a late night comedian Stephen Colbert in a graduation speech at Wellesley College in 2004 Toni Morrison encouraged graduates to imagine themselves as artists specifically as artists writing the stories of their own lives quote being your own story means you can always choose the tone it also means that you can invent the language to say who you are and what you mean I see your life as already artful waiting just waiting and ready for you to make it art end quote with advice about how to make your life art Stephen Colbert tells Northwestern University graduates in 2011 quote if you love only yourself you will serve only yourself and you will have only yourself instead try to love others and serve others and hopefully find those who love and serve you in return end quote today our graduation speaker who will offer you some thoughts on your own graduation is Sir Jonathan bate Jonathan bate is foundation professor of environmental humanities at ASU and a faculty member in the Department of English he is a biographer broadcaster eco critic and Shakespearean he is also a senior research fellow at Worcester College Oxford where he was Provost from 2011 to 2019 he is also the youngest person ever to have been knighted for literary for services to literary scholarship his most recent book is radical Wordsworth the poet who changed the world just out both in the UK and the US we are very honored to have him here with us today and so now I'm going to turn the program over to Professor bate thank you so much Krista for that generous introduction just give me a thumbs up and you can hear me can you hear me yeah Johnny good okay well welcome everybody to this rather extraordinary occasion let me begin with some words from Walt Whitman all the past we leave behind we D bouche upon a newer mightier world varied world fresh and strong the world we seas world of Labor and the March pioneers o pioneers you are pioneers the pioneering class who are participating in the world's first virtual commencement you did not want to graduate in this strange new way and some kind of normality will return in which you can return do things that had traditionally done at graduations hugging your friends seeing your parents pride throwing academic caps in the air looking your professors in the eye and saying thank you but just because we are not physically present the congratulations of all your professors are no less real no less full every year we say that you have done amazingly to stay the course to finish the race this year we say that with redoubled strength because you have stayed the course and finished the race through the unprecedented upheaval of the spring semester of 2020 today is about you but let me just take a moment to praise your teachers the support staff in the department and everyone in the administration here at ASU because I am acutely conscious that this university has served you exceptionally well in this perilous time has coped with the disruption of the abrupt cessation of on-campus teaching better perhaps than any other University in the world I can say that with authority because I have come here from a very old University called Oxford where things move very slowly and where most of the professor's had until now never heard of zoom or canvas never contemplated the possibility that a virtual classroom can offer as real a teaching and learning experience as a dusty 400 year old lecture room I can tell you for sure that they struggled greatly with the transition ASU by contrast is a pioneer of online learning and indeed for many of you graduating today via the online route little will have changed in your learning experience even as your lives changed suddenly in March bringing intense new challenges which you have met with great courage but because we had the experience the infrastructure and the willpower forged by the creation of ASU online we were able to transform our in-person classes with remarkable speed and effectiveness but there was a huge amount of work from your professors from the administrators in achieving that so I know you will want to join me in thanking everyone who made that possible and indefatigable and unflappable leadership of Chris Radcliffe perhaps if you've got the zoom skills by now take a moment to hit that applause button but enough about us here are a few words for you to repeat but slightly adapt those words of old Walt grandfather of American poetry addressing the Pioneers who stepped westward as many of you from the eastern states did when you made the choice to come to Arizona or the past you leave behind you Dee bouche upon a newer mightier world varied world fresh and strong the world you cease world of labor and the March pioneers o pioneers you are leaving behind your past as a student at ASU but you are not saying goodbye to us you are taking that past with you in a thousand memories and a hundred friendships our past shapes are present and prepares us for our future cherish the memories of ASU that will strengthen you stay in touch come back to see us and think about ways in which you can give back to your alma mater in order to help create opportunities for future generations to benefit in the way that you have benefited you are Daboo Shing upon a very new and mightily scary world a world varied beyond all imagining from what it was a start of your final year of study walt whitman's verb de bouche the merriam-webster dictionary tells us is often used in military contexts to refer to the action of troops proceeding from a closed space to an open one in the poem pioneers o pioneers it was a brilliant world word choice because of its a vacation of the journey from the stuffily closed space of the East Coast which in the 19th century still which felt shaped and constrained by Old Europe to the wide-open spaces of the West which are nowhere better embodied than in the Sonora Desert where you have made your intellectual home these last four or more years now though you are de bushing into a world that is temporarily closed a world that does not seem fresh and strong a world not of Labor and the March but of the highest unemployment rate since the Great Depression and an unprecedented ban but only on marching but even on public gathering but you are the ones who are fresh and strong you are the pioneers who have weathered the storm completing your degrees whilst under such extraordinary pressure and fear so you will endure the challenge and find your way in the world and you will have been well equipped by your major in English whether your focus has been in rhetoric or literature or language or education or film or creative writing or any combination of the above you will have grown and flourished in to arts that you will discover to be of immeasurable value in whatever walk of life you find yourself the ancient Romans called those arts ratio and erratic reasoning and speaking or as we would say critical thinking and persuasive argument for centuries the skills have been the essence of a humanist education last year I published a book called how the classics made Shakespeare in which I showed how Shakespeare learned those arts of rhetoric in his high school then used them to forge the most profound varied and humane body of dramatic literature ever to have been created boys of Shakespeare's generation in 16th century England were given enormous schooling education so that they could become responsible citizens government administrators perhaps but for Shakespeare his brightest contemporaries such as Christopher Marlowe the old world's opened up by their study of the stories and the poetry of antiquity inspired them to imagine something new a public theater in which every question of what it means to be human to be a self a member of a family a lover a friend a neighbor a part of the body politic could be explored and tested pushed to extremes of crotchety celebrated in joyous comedy written into history for the benefit of future generations those arts of ratio and orator critical thinking and persuasive speaking or a golden thread running through the literary tradition making possible everything from Chaucer to Shakespeare to Toni Morrison they are skill of the tree hone whenever we read with thoughtfulness or look at a performance on stage on television or on film with attention they are not dependent on formal education Toni Morrison was a university teacher whereas Shakespeare didn't go to university but was always a reader of genius Walt Whitman left school at the age of 11 schooled himself in the literary tradition you I know will never stop reading never cease to immerse yourself in the diverse body of creative endeavor that drew you to major in English in the first place but by studying for a degree you have done something extra you have made yourself into a scholar so what his scholarship taught you to know and to see another American pioneer the New England philosopher of transcendentalism Ralph Waldo Emerson had three answers in his great variation the American scholar if he were delivering this address today he would say that you have become man thinking and woman thinking in his time it was only and we have made at least some progress in the last two centuries the three key things that make the thinking persons as Emerson please I quote the first in time and the first in importance and the influences upon the mind is that of nature every day the Sun and after sunset night and her stars ever the winds blow ever the grass grows everyday men and women conversing beholding and be Holden the scholar must needs stand wistful and admiring before this great spectacle he must settle its value in his mind for us today for you in the future there is no more important question than that of nature of the future of the plight ever the winds blow ever the Arce grows said emerson the ways in which the winds blow and the grass grow are now in the age that we have come to call the Anthropocene shaped by humankind and its toxic emissions in a way that Emerson could never have imagined our most urgent need is to settle the value of our planet in our minds and that is something to which one strand of our work in the English department here at ASU our courses and research in environmental humanities is especially alert it might seem presumptuous to suppose that mere humanists as opposed to climate scientists and politicians have a contribution to make in this regard but we do so for example I've argued in a book to be published here in the US next week that one of the figures who has genuinely changed the world by making us think about nature in a new way with the admiration of which Emerson speaks was the poet William Wordsworth and indeed Emerson twice visited Wordsworth in England Ellison continued his meditation on the formation of the true scholar by saying this the next great influence into the spirit of the scholar is the mind of the past in whatever form whether of literature of art of institutions that mind is inscribed books are the best type of the influence the past and perhaps we shall get at the truth learn the amount of this influence more conveniently are considering their value alone the wisdom of the mind of the past is now available to us in many forms as well as books television film above all the Internet and our sense of that mind is far more diverse than it was for Emerson we have learnt to listen to the wisdom of indigenous peoples as well as that of the Western tradition but there remains a challenge that you will face and for which your studies in English will have prepared you well to know how to sort the mind from the mindlessness the historic truths from the fake news and that is important especially so in our fractured public realm because you have a duty to put your skills in Rati oh and Horatio in critical thinking and persuasive speaking to public use this is Emerson's third point there goes in the world and notion that the scholar should be a recluse a valetudinarian as unfit for any handiwork or public labor as a penknife for an axe the so called practical men sneer at speculative men as if because they speculate or see they could do nothing action is with the scholar subordinate but it is essential without it thought can never ripen into truth while the world hangs before the eye as a cloud of beauty we cannot even see its beauty inaction is cowardice there can be no scholar with the heroic mind the preamble of thought the transition through which it passes from the unconscious to the conscious is action only so much do I know as I have live instantly here we know whose words are loaded with life and who's not you have studied well these past few years now it is time as the character of Strether says in Henry James's novel The Ambassadors now is the time to live or you can it's a mistake not to doesn't matter what you do in particular so long as you've had your life if you haven't had that what have you had so stand up for what you believe believe it rationally and argue for it articulately be an activist but have reasoned and a persuasive activist make it your business to make the world a better place just now that sounds like an impossible task but the lockdown will come to an end to revert to Walt Whitman's word de bouche often used in military contexts you are de bushi from ASU in the midst of our war a world war against a debilitating virus that may just be Nature's Way of sending us a warning about the way we live now these months will be marked forever as a significant moment in the history of the world never before in thousands of years have commerce travel religious gathering any gathering come to a halt all across the world when the world begins again you can lead us into the future we have sought to give you the resources to do so above all the resilience that can come from literature from comforting words let me end by renewing on behalf of the English department our congratulations to you especially to our Prize winners but to every one of you and end by quoting some words from another inspiring work of literature a few days ago we remembered the 75th anniversary of victory in an old war the defeat of Nazism in Europe a man who did his ment for that victory was the French Algerian novelist Albert Camus who fought in the French Resistance shortly after the war he wrote a novel called la peste the plague in which he imagined a town and the siege from an epidemic so many details of that novel and cannily anticipate the place where we find ourselves today but what comes through at the end is the endurance and the hope of the human spirit so I leave you with these words of Albert Camus amongst the heaps of corpses the

hwW5BIumFMA | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hwW5BIumFMA | 🔴LIVE - Solos On Caldera | New S4 Warzone Meta | Warzone Coach | what up what up what up what's up man not much i saw you turn on the stream i was streaming right now so i thought might as well entertain ourselves a little bit oh this is if you're watching mine it's gonna be very entertaining i'm doing some dumb [ __ ] um i don't know hey say something yeah i'll say something um something something something something something okay yeah so it's not picking up your voice oh okay cool my my stream is picking up your voice is that going to be an issue uh well you know how i talk i kind of i could have been a sailor in a past life oh i mean words are it's not an issue words are just made up okay as long as you don't use any ones that i spite or hate but we're good we're good yeah i decided on i didn't have to work today so i'm gonna try and learn how to control my car in the air heck yeah once you get the air control down then you're gonna do ground control and then you're gonna be in the pro league simple as that yeah i'm learning that like straight left and straight right what up stream by the way is actually really difficult on strafing with the car yes but whenever you introduce air rolls so whenever you're just turning like it it really doesn't make a difference okay but whenever you go in the air so the way we hold our controllers um our thumbs are actually at an angle to the sticks right and so when i think i'm pushing straight left i'm i mean straight right with my left thumb i'm actually pressing a little bit up instead of straight left yeah like you're going in an angle yes and it's it's actually it i believe that uh because same thing is goes for call of duty you really have to only go left and right to get a full strafe um if you go in a diagonal by accident that's just gonna make your hitbox easy like you didn't move at all yeah that's crazy how similar the games are yeah maybe that's something that like your students from your coaching could actually benefit from is understanding that like you got to be conscious of making sure because now granted you did make me conscious of that when running bots and like watching bods but i um i was just like oh yeah i fixed that but now i'm noticing that like i never fix that that's crazy yeah i think the biggest issues that all my students run into is centering and strafing left and right uh because you need to strafe left and right literally 24 7 to get aim assist that makes the game easier and then um uh what was the next thing oh centering a big issue is my students whenever they're traveling they look away from the enemy you're never supposed to do that the second you see an enemy you keep your crosshairs there while you are moving while you are traveling you know and they just don't no that that makes perfect sense and i i think it like it would have actually really helped me a lot because something you always preached to me was [Applause] right you're making that hitbox get bigger for this [Applause] and it's actually my controller overlay kind of amplified that because i was able to see oh man my stick is actually not straight to the left or straight to the right no that's perfect good for you um i'm really happy that i have my controller overlay too because i even see myself run into those same issues where i'm not strafing all the way left or all the way right and like you could tell oh yeah that's the reason why i lost oh yeah did you um have a good session last night i guess i should bring this just in case somebody does um [Applause] i'm just landing peak right now just getting easy kills in my bot lobby hostile [Applause] that was the wrong damn i could have had a two-piece that sucks dude i got a 1v3 in solos i can't wait to make a video out of it and it's as crazy as it as it sounds literally three people in solos were trying to fight just me that's nice uh sessions went amazing that's awesome um yeah we got two second places two first places [Applause] yeah i figured that like i'd actually get some easier lobbies with um since the servers went down and they were like just coming back in uh actually no um it's quite the opposite we kind of got a lot of sweats um yeah more than i'd like um and and the guy that i'm playing with uh he really is focusing on just getting wins so you know that that's easy right we're only going to really get like 10 kills and a win i'm fine with that and we got second place twice two wins and they're like point 1.2 1.1 katy lobbies which not easy damn i i mean that's actually super dope yeah if it was uh trying to go for high kills it'd be a different story definitely yeah i was about to say i mean it's and i know for most people that it would it sounds the opposite but like going for the win is definitely a lot easier than dropping in being like okay i'ma get it er this time because the win is like just rotations i mean high kills is too but it's not and placement in a lobby yeah definitely and when we're switching over to uh modern warfare 2 war zone 2 that's going to be like the focus it's just getting wins just getting placements because it's going to be the biggest difference or the most advanced call of duty yet it's actually really cool i just learned something that i can do that i didn't know i could do i actually want to try and do it it's like almost dancing on the floor like you want a ballerina dance a ballerina dance on the floor in rocket league yeah [ __ ] ballerina okay that's actually really cool i am frying kids right now it's looking like a good day gas is closing in relocating the safe zone so yesterday when it wasn't yesterday was day before i was streaming i was like running those training packs 24 7. yeah i guess i kind of stopped focusing on some of the training packs and um this guy hopped in and was like asking me how i was doing so well for playing the time that was and i showed him some of the training packs that i was doing [Applause] and i decided to do them on stream and i couldn't hit a single shot of them yeah you got nervous no it was just i haven't practiced them i realized that like i stopped doing them like a week ago oh oh shoot okay yeah i i just kind of got in the habit of hopping on get into a ranked and learn that way yeah um which is kind of the slow way of learning yeah no that's uh again that's like one pet peeve i have because or not a pet peeve but i guess just there's different people out there for it um but [Applause] for me i think the best way to learn is just hop into the deep end learn to swim that's just the best way and there's no better way because i think if you do you know learn step by step slowly yeah you may have spent you know only three months becoming this perfect player but now uh you're missing out on where's my dead body but now you're missing out on that experience of like losing so now you're so like you're brand new to losing yeah no that that makes sense that might discourage you yeah dude i so like i i got killed by this guy who's probably the best player in the game somehow he saw me through a bush he got eagle eyes and now i can't find my loot i'm gonna land it on the wrong side of the map have you played any caldera or are you just like running i don't i only pretty much play caldera if i'm trying to make a video then i'll uh then of course uh what's up wicked wicked just said uh did i roll out of bed and i did i sat there i was like damn i'm not gonna shower i look decent not not enough i guess i i did the same thing i like woke up went to the store got me some caffeine and i was like oh well i'm gonna try and learn how to aerial and just turn the stream on and just went with it [Applause] hell yeah that's what it's all about did i kill the guy that killed me and he almost killed me the same way where he just randomly looks and then he goes there's an enemy like what the hell i don't think there's any hackers in this game anymore like i never like really think about it yeah but i die so many times just like in weird ways where i'm like how do they know people knowing where you're at when they shouldn't know where you're at yeah and it's stupid things where it's like oh okay yeah no there's undeniably 80 evidence proving that he did see me and he's not hacking but i would still say i don't know it's just weird that he's a bad player and he saw me through all these bushes like it's just weird i guess i need a hairbrush sorry guys that was something i didn't do i i didn't do anything with my hair and i mean my hair is like i i think it's close to like maybe 13 inches now i don't know what they call it where you're from uh beanie a beanie yeah you said two words i've never heard in my entire life yeah toboggan is what they call it in when i was in washington on scully is what they called it when i was in the south and i have heard it called a beanie though at least we're not that different then that's good hold on i have a guy who popped the uav on me oh did i just aim in right on his head i'm nasty bro oh [Applause] i just out fried his ass i um installed a plug-in in this game that like yesterday that lets me see people's range yeah and apparently like all the people that i've been playing in um ones that are like gold two gold three and platt are like all diamond players that just haven't played ones and so they spend so much time playing other game modes okay but it's kind of making me excited to go play some of the other game modes i just i i really want to learn once like whenever i know that no matter what i'm on point like teammates matter but when when you're doing what you need to do like you can make up for shitty teammates definitely yeah that's absolutely how call of duty is true there will be no such thing as a 1d4 clutch um as long as you're on point but like you can make up for attracting teammates so i'm just trying to i don't know and once it's super fun it's it's all me every match oh i did make it back up to flat yesterday though nice plat one or yeah i'm flat one um i am right after playing those games against drexy i am i was like i'm gonna go play some ranked and it was insane because everything felt slow compared to what he yeah i right after you got off i got him to do one more 1v1 and like i just told him to like run the score up as high as he could and if he's diamond three champ one in ones there's such a skilled gap between where i'm at and diamonds that's nuts dude i'm i'm so happy that you're getting practice that way uh especially you telling them yo just just go just go to town uh because yeah i played the last one um the one you were still there and i was like um just play everything like you can do everything and then like i felt at the beginning that he was still just like dribbling to a flick and i felt like he was taking it easy and i was still able to score that one on him but now when he like played for real and he i i hardly ever got to touch the ball didn't even get to touch the damn ball that is insane but i told him to give me three months [Applause] it's weird because it's like it it does sound like a super shitty thing to say but it really isn't it's it's just confidence and trust in yourself you know keep that up keep that uh confidence up hmm i had a guy that popped the uav but he's not looking for me oh you want to know something whack they made the blixen uh probably one of the best guns in the game again i don't know if you've heard of that wicked you have the worst hit registration uh yes yes it is this guy oh i got so lucky to kill that kid i wall bang this kid through the tents you could always wall bang them but i felt really lucky because i started missing bullets i might be able to drop no it kind of sucks because like controlling your car in the air in this small field uh hold on i need uh comms how do i lose that gun fight how do i lose that gunfight i outplayed this kid so bad i land first shot oh my god uh and that's where oh my god like that's where i think skill based matchmaking just says um you got 19 kills in the solos [ __ ] you like what the [ __ ] oh i hate like oh my god dude so what just happened to me right now roy happens to pretty much every single pro player at the worst time where they're making the best play ever and then just for no reason they just hit the ground like they get smacked by the hand of god for no reason holy [ __ ] all right that is what it is it is what it is i'm good yeah no wicked they upgraded the blixen understand that right there made me lose that gun fight in this game we're like sometimes dumb [ __ ] just happens that is good for bad players yes i feel that yes like when it hurts so bad like it is like you know like you can tell when you're playing against someone that's good and someone that's not and you're just like you think you really did something but like you got so lucky and it was such an unfortunate event yeah like pinching the ball in a 50 50 and just flying right into your net yeah calculated yo and that's oh i [ __ ] i hate that yo what's going on um alan murray is that uh apostrophe there for a reason but what's going on dude thanks for stopping by uh no dude wicked so they actually nerfed them so there was an update i think yesterday or wednesday and they nerfed the kilo they nerfed uh the amax again they just nerfed all of the mw weapons after the buff and by accident they buffed the blixen again but it doesn't work for me so interesting call of duty currently playing solos get a win with you uh yeah i'm playing solos right now as well um let me just run a few more rounds and then we could probably play a duo's but yeah dude so like right now uh roy what i'm trying to do is the only reason why i'm playing caldera is because i'm trying to get my overall kd up to a 3.0 uh because everyone uses cod tracker and if you go off of the weekly kd all the content creators and pro players have like a 4.0 kd 3.0 kd um nothing really special right but when you look at the overall the overall only counts caldera kills and vern dance kills so a lot of these pro players only have like a 1.5 or a 1.9 and because of that they're also getting into easier lobbies there's a lot of just twists to this game that you can when when you're ch sorry if i'm butchering your name bro i mean there's a major difference between a 1.1 to even like a 1.8 yeah and then you take like someone that's playing in lobbies that is true like 2.6 like 4.0 those lobbies are going to be the same always insane what's the uh equivalent to rocket league [Applause] oh i don't know i like the stats really i don't know like the stats are weird um i i i don't even know how to look at the stats and be like oh okay well this guy's good um [Applause] because i mean like i have a um i have a 66 shooting ratio means that 66 at a time my ball goes in when i shoot it good for you nice but i still miss shots and i played people that have like a 40 and they hit every shot they took so i i don't that that doesn't make sense i don't know sometimes like you don't intentionally go for a shot you go for like a a rebound i guess and like that sometimes counts as a shot so maybe that's why yeah i'm not i don't know it's super weird but now like from what i'm learning so where i'm at now the average player does in like three to five hundred hours three to five hundred hours and you did it in 30. yeah i think i hit gold in hit gold three and i think it was like 50 hours um but now i started out in uh yeah i i think i did after my placements i was involved i think i was [Applause] which is diamond i [Applause] i think that's the equivalent of like a 1.1 lobby to like a 3.0 and he's not even pro yet he's still got he's just he's a diamond three i think he said his peak level was champ and that's literally [Applause] diamond three i think is [Applause] that's just i love frying kits in the gulag you know i you know what one video i worked really hard on that i wish got more views my how to win the gulag nine times out of ten because i literally have like a 90 win rate on it mine was never that good the highest i could ever get was like i think 60. you know it's better than a or i'd much rather have that coin toss than a 50 50. yeah and i will say i think that like it kind of shows like how many non-call of duty players play warzone because the gulag is a 1v1 call of duty match but like that that's all it is it but well i guess [Applause] i think the saddest part about call of duty is when a person just has a better gun their gun shoots faster or does more damage you lose the gunfight and i think that's a big reason why people lose in like the gulag big reason why i just lost right now um elon uh you can go ahead and add me on activision right now you can invite me to your game and then we could play some duos i won't be in game chat and i won't be talking just because i'm talking to my buddy roy right now and i was expecting to just play solos today uh but in the top right corner right here you can go ahead type that in and uh add me i'll give you like five minutes hitting the shots you know it's on accident oh but he's still saying calculated anyways oh no i'm not saying calculated but like it felt good to hit the shot but i knew that like i i couldn't hit that [ __ ] shot there's no way in hell like i did hit it but it was just i got lucky and my car placement was just right maybe the rocket league gods are on your side never know semper fi was in that match that's crazy the difference from bot lobby to actual lobby is crazy on warzone dude it is yeah those bot lobbies will make you feel so good felt amazing and i swear that there is a little bit of that in this game like my first couple matches are always way easier but now granted in the ranking system every match you can just add that right there uh elon i'm going to go ahead and load up another game but there it is right there add me invite me every match after that's going to be harder yep those first like two or three matches are so easy okay i'm actually gonna try and play a match well i forgot that i left off as a platinum last night it's gonna be interesting i don't know wicked where are you are you online i have over 222 friends i should start deleting these just so i can save up space these one of you oh yeah no i'm not sure wicked it's just uh that's the call of duty friends list i don't delete anyone or anything so sorry but you can add me yeah buddy you don't play enough ones on me damn i just cut my hand in real life yeah what'd you do i [ __ ] hit it on the bottom of my desk is it bad or not it's okay oh man dude there's a pro player uh back in 2016 his name was aches and uh he did like a race like they're at a land competition competing for like a hundred grand and for some reason at midnight they uh did a race and he fell to the ground to the ground and ripped his entire like palm open and he had to get like 15 stitches and with 15 stitches he still won the tournament that that weekend um allen you can uh add me right here so just copy and paste this right here press pause right now add me uh you can invite me to a duo's lobby and then you and i could play duo's um i'm not gonna be talking in game chat or discord just because i thought i was going to be playing solos today and i'm also hanging out with my buddy roy the wrong time just letting you know i got your boosters yeah no wicked i'm glad that i'm still on your friends list but this has been happening to me with all my recent students we're like i'll add them and they'll be a friend on battlenet but they won't be a friend on call of duty or they'll be a friend on activision not battlenet there's some where i just invite them through discord like that's it so i'm sorry dude billion dollar company can't fix their friends list just wish we would go back towards uh black ops 2 days right [Applause] uh but yeah i have it up again uh right now if you want to add it alyus 58576 36. enough training now you fight a real enemy yeah i coach warzone um one like today is my off day so i'm kind of just playing solos but i'd be happy to play duo's with you man uh yeah i've been coaching for two years and i've been competing in call of duty for 10. i think so i'm going to do i was been playing call of duty since i've been in my diapers pretty much like i started out and i fell in love with playing one i know bro it makes me so sad i love caldera right now with all the balloons and the transit stations just makes the game run so much faster you can tell that they play the other game modes that they have no understanding of how to play against a single opponent yeah i think that's uh uh that's kind of like call of duty where um there's a very few line of skill gap between players that are cracked out and then pro players pro players just understand you know like game awareness [Applause] oh i messed up my aim that was crazy i was very unfortunate uh is your name the process by the way allen see these see sea of thieves isn't that battle royale but pirates that's sick dude i i would love to play that game um did you play uh assassin's creed black flag because that was like my favorite game of all time just being a pirate and just running around everywhere uh but uh alan if your name is the process i'll add you right now and then uh you can invite me and then we can just load up duos so point i added you buddy i've learned that trick i'm just gonna try to fly and just die real quick for you but you haven't saw many of my tricks like i'm just going in brain dead right now hoping to die oh looks like someone's in there [Applause] what the oh that's in my net that was a bad play on me all right i'm gonna try to 1v1 this shotgun player and then i'm i should lose this and then i'll join up on you i didn't lose it sorry let me get to the balloon and fight someone from the air and then i should lose it [Applause] let me grab this bounty so i at least know where they are missed my shot in this game because of it oh it's more like a survival game have you played these rory i was supposed to lose that gunfight damn it have you played cfds uh roy no i haven't i think you get it for like one dollar on xbox game pass really yeah appreciate that i will go for the one but i'm gonna go for a reckless win is that guy about to fight someone [Applause] i feel like people are always camping here but we'll go for it oh no dude you got to be joking me is that guy camping in the freaking bushes like what are the oh my god that is some crazy oh i have my mic on my bad boy dude that is some crazy call of duty timing right there it was brutal but survive no worries i was able to it's loud yeah no my bad dude i was blown away because i landed at houses where there's a balloon that you could take yeah and usually there's people always camping in the houses so i was just like you know what screw it i'm just gonna go for it now i went for it and then shoot bro just bad call of duty timing or just a person just like was walking up wasn't camping or anything just walked up same time i did setting i really need to go practice my dribble okay [Applause] oh yeah no um i'm a caldera guy so i can hopefully help you out um yeah with caldera it's a matter of just using the entire map and just having better pacing and overall positioning where did i get shot from wow what a balance that was a nice shot [Applause] got a redeploy and a gulag i'm really going to be in this game oh i forgot they added those redeploy tokens yeah it just makes the game so much more fun [Applause] designating that's [Applause] there's a better demo on this part dude what is this guy's issue hey what's going on eli thanks for stopping by bro i messed up what a touch that's what i get for being too aggressive in that situation usually you can uh leave a zipline early and just mantle up but i don't have that memorized yet i don't think a lot of people have it memorized turning target has been marked so uh bad challenge i went for a stupid challenge right there just because i wanted to like i said i just want to play crazy aggressive um really hoping it was going to spawn me closer to my dead body not all the way out here oh well yeah screw it do you uh oh [Applause] i missed my shot [Applause] i missed the ball [Applause] i can't believe that guy lost that fight that was a stupid challenge a kid got played way too hard like that was not good that was embarrassing for him is that guy gonna land right back on his dead body all right there's a lot of things we can do here this guy's gonna land on his dead body i can kill him this guy's gonna get pushed in by the gas i need to see my rotation my rotation will be probably through docks that guy is actually just resetting he's full resetting all right let's see about the guy up here oh wow that guy had a lot of cash i don't even need to focus on this guy out here i just want to there you are i've never used the cooper before oh my god i only have nine kills i am pretty bad at the game could have way more if i didn't throw him that first step can be kind of annoying sometimes this was the gun that outgunned me when i had that blixen so hopefully i don't get out gunned up [Applause] elias one second yeah i could hear you i was just uh i had my mic muted what's up bro i am playing one of the people from remember that coach i was talking about yeah the the the one that you were gonna purchase right yes yeah i'm playing one of his students they all changed their name to this damn he got his own little crew that's crazy yeah and bro i i am going to do everything in my [Applause] power to destroy the kids because i just i i'm just like man you wasted so much money oh you messed up [Applause] that was a nice pop did he teach you that [ __ ] hope that guy watches me i hope that's the same guy watching me let me go shoot his body real quick requesting the safe zone oh my gosh i got sniped by a completely different person you can invite me now uh passive so it's interesting that you say you don't win a lot based off of playing passive because winning this game is very easy um i'm joining up on your game right now and you can load it up like i said i'm in a call right now uh sorry i won't be you know communicating with you but i will be pinging um if you just load it up right now um stay in the stream i'm gonna pull up the big map and i'll show you how easy the game is just to win because if you're playing very passive not getting a lot of kills and you're mostly going for a win you should be able to get top five every single game um now if you want to go for kills and you want to you know try to have like probably 10 kills at the end of the game that's when you want to start playing aggressive um if you're trying to be like a pro player that's where you got to flip the switch and be passive aggressive where you're passive then you're aggressive and you just constantly switch that uh you switch that uh you switch it back and forth eli you hopped in all you said was hi and i said hi back what's up bro how you doing we gotta do this more often roy yeah yeah just loading up the stream chilling in discord that's about it nothing much to it yo andrew thank you so much for stopping by bro and i appreciate the words um eli wicked alan if you hear it from andrew i got you andrew is a beast by the way um i don't know if he's comfortable um letting you guys know how amazing he is at the game uh but you know he went from about roughly about you know two kills a game up to about five kills a game now and uh we've been getting dubs non-stop uh whenever he plays with his friends he's getting at least like seven dubs out of 12 games it is ridiculous um i need to get better cause i keep getting him second places uh my main loadout right now is i'm actually going to keep using the marco 5. here it is right here you can copy this if you'd like uh i just like the movement speed for this it reminds me of the ots uh oh i made them for fit not as good though um like i said the blixen sometimes is way more overpowered and then there's times where i get outgunned by the um uh but marco 5 is mine and then my primary i used to use the nz the nz is out the kg is in and here's my kg class the only thing you want to change about this is the scope no that's not it one more and then i'm gonna take a little break okay yeah so uh you just need to change the scope to four times oh dude i barely started streaming about an hour ago oh okay yeah no that's that sounds good if you're gonna take a break though yeah i try to try to take like a nice little 10 minute break every now and then just to stand up and whenever you say break i think oh yeah he's going to be gone for like you know an hour and then he'll come back but no that's just 10 minutes marco very good keep using that automaton questionable automaton just takes so many bullets to kill um i think you're better off if you just hop into plunder and level up your kg really quick or level up your um nz the nz has a lot of recoil but it hits the kg doesn't have any recoil and it hits it [Applause] yeah i just gotta get rid of this stupid scope get my kills for these uh that should have been my kill uh but yeah elan keep watching uh because i actually can't show you the tip uh until the game actually loads in uh so give me about five seconds six to 12 kills oh man i was i gotta stop lowballing myself and you thank you andrew alright so if you just eyeball the middle of the circle this is usually where the game is ending this is ending a little out in the open so i know that the game is probably going to pull towards beachhead and if we wanted to we can just sit here the entire game and the circle will end on us we'll win the game if you don't want to do that and you want to go for kills usually you would land on the outside of the circle and then you'd rotate throughout the entire circle killing everyone doing that back and forth until you make it to the end game um sorry for all of those i hope that didn't confuse you but let's just go for this storage town right here probably get into a lot of gunfights right away or insane it's about three different teams landing on me [Applause] oh my god is you're a [ __ ] [ __ ] bro man people have nothing better to do than just [ __ ] beat their meat all day don't they yeah pretty much yeah bro whenever i hear some stupid [ __ ] it's like damn all they got in their life is [ __ ] pornhub and that's it nothing else going on it's crazy oh i missed my boost that's in my neck [Applause] so [Applause] why would i pull my parachute right there game at what distance would that kill me dude i don't know that was a demo but okay so [Applause] statue process yeah process we landed at a hot spot and then everyone there was just sweaty and then believe it or not but the reason why i died was because i pulled my parachute from this distance like skill-based matchmaking really trying to make sure we lose [Applause] cool i can buy you back where can i mine it's a nice shot [Applause] the only thing that matters for us right now elon is just getting a dub and like i said uh if you just remember where the plane was flying in and based on where the circle is landing there's naturally gonna be less people out in this direction there will be people but you're not gonna have all the sweaty lobbies for everyone good enough for a uav going uh moved [Applause] is i'm so shy i'm so shy please if anyone's there did they see me spam my jump button because i spammed my jump button right before i hit the ground and i didn't pull my parachute that sucks maybe i didn't do it soon enough gotta do it sooner got my credit card in the middle though yeah mailman's here there we go oh boy roy yeah yeah i don't know if it's because of my ping my frames i'm not playing on 1440p but whenever i don't want to pull my parachute i pull it whenever i want to pull it i don't pull it hurting my soul man oh i missed the ball oh well it's fine i keep messing up like really bad flip the wrong way so uh process if you're in the chat um when i flew over i didn't see any windows or doorways broken so it's like pretty safe to just kind of like run around out in the open right here like you don't have to worry about anything one thing i always try to teach students process is don't be afraid of getting shot at like getting shot at is you getting information just always be ready to get behind cover because the second you get a shot into you you know the exact angle that you're getting shot from [Applause] let me guess that kills you oh thankfully it didn't they added bombers into this game too roy it's pretty insane bombers yeah like world war ii bombers it's scary he tossed it neutralized up i missed that i can't see this guy see like underground oh there he is [Applause] safe zone relocated [Applause] has faded all right yeah sounds good you'll just be back in 10 minutes yeah 10 15 minutes max just enough time to let my hands calm down [Applause] and i'm uh i'm really hoping that's not an age thing and that's just uh you've been working them out too much yeah i don't know um i think a lot of it's my just my job like yeah tattoo artists that's some kind of brutal yeah no absolutely i bet i'm a shoot you've [ __ ] tattooed for 14 hours it's nuts oh that guy actually hit me good for him cooper carmbine out of the air he knows how to use that gun you could hit play again process [Applause] this is so weird my like chat bots stuff like that damn maybe i need to use oh your chat boxes like on your stream no the chat bot um my timers aren't coming up so i been streaming for a while and i have two timers one set for 10 minutes one set for 15 minutes and they're just things that come up in chat every 10 to 15 minutes oh yeah like check my website and stuff yeah yeah like nightbot yeah no i um obviously i don't have any experience but that sucks you're running into those issues because it seems like everyone has that oh man elon dude don't worry about it bro it's uh what matters is simply just having fun right um if you were if you at least had one second in that game where you're like wow that was fun that's what wins that's what wins us uh the day um but nah man uh it's just a matter of your priorities it's just a matter of making sure that you're always safe not gonna get shot from behind um making sure that you keep up with pacing always get behind cover and overall just don't be scared just don't be scared at all if you really need to practice like your gun fights like if you're not good up close hop into bots you can do the modern warfare multiplayer and shoot against bots that's one thing i tell all my students to do is just shoot botsu bots shubatsu bots shooting bots once you get confidence against bots you can gain confidence in plunder and then you can get confidence in resurgence and then battle royale because i'd hope you know that literally about 10 months ago i was like in the same boat as you right where i was trying really hard and i was playing passive for the win but it just wasn't working um and it's because it's just a mindset thing it's just a it's just a video game you know we're here to just shoot people and hope we get to win that's about it why am i wearing a long sleeve in summer dude like right there um even though i just died i don't know if you saw that but even though i just died right here me getting off that movement where that enemy was not able to land shots that's already a win in my book right so then i'm gonna land here again i'm gonna attempt it again where i'm gonna oh well i have the wrong gun out and i did it even a little bit better right there i'm gonna make sure i have the right gun out and this third time i'm actually gonna try to kill him where i'm gonna keep doing the same thing except for i'm gonna add in uh you know well he's dead i would have added in the exact same thing but i would have you know actually shot him because you have to shoot him to kill him i love that philosophy andrea you will get wins chasing kills you won't get kills chasing wins i love that dude all right finally you loaded into the game i was getting a little just land worried there so process again if you're here you want to treat this like its own call of duty map and just stay on the outside stay on the outside yeah we could do that instead targets [Applause] security [Applause] location enemy radar jammer detected in your area ah come on game oh bro this guy just like toying with us like is he not even trying to kill us he's just playing for damage or something that's weird margie you want to play some more zone with me today uh honestly i'm playing with this guy i'd be down too yeah all right i'm back i will be getting off uh in the next two hours so if you'd uh like to play now uh let me know and i can invite you attacking here let's take it yeah we could play trios i'm down for that yeah once you log in in about 40 minutes we'll invite you to some trios and we will play oh bro roy i forgot i got a new watch in call of duty um and it's a mini map no way yeah yeah yeah i mean is it like yeah it works yeah oh that is actually dope i i just uh imagine if it was a heartbeat pretty nice that would actually be insane but with it being that much of an advantage there'd [ __ ] campers watching the oh that's so gross um yeah no there's a huge disadvantage it doesn't it barely works like you pull it up to your face for like one second and then um that's it you just see yourself running around and you can't see while you're actually playing you have to pull it up [Applause] yeah my bad process so right there um i've died that way probably three different times and it's either from that building or up on those wood stacks i thought i checked the wood stacks i checked the building and then i was gonna take the uh zip line said we died i like that's the number one way i die pretty much all the time i'm sorry about that yeah i just screwed over uh the guy i'm playing with on stream right now i feel horrible what do you mean uh just cuz um we were about to hit a zip line and i checked i thought i checked all the right angles uh before taking it and i was i just checked one angle or i didn't check one angle and they got us dead yeah are you doing like a live session no no i just people in stream are like hey can i play i was like yeah dude there's like two people right on me and now they don't exist anymore yeah it's crazy to people that's come into my stream that has like actually taught me stuff like i mean on a normal day like in game i would never i'm not ssl so like i'd never meet those people in my games yeah and you individually are starting getting getting into those lobbies right no no not not on my own no not yet no i oh he's so bad at the game but he has the blixen so he wins the gun fight that's so cringe oh man i gotta ask you by the way uh allen um how do you wanna play this uh do you want me to just go do my own thing or do you want me to stay with you do you just want to have me take lead and we just go for a win go for kills uh just because yes there is no communication so that is putting us in a deficit um but we at least need to be on the same game plan um so just let me know what we're doing and we'll take care we'll take care of the game it'll go a lot smoother and margie yeah just hit me up in chat whenever you're ready and then we'll invite you so in 40 minutes you'll okay cool you'll be on we'll have about an hour to play that's dope i don't know if you guys see it but i'm sweating right now first thing i did was roll out of bed this is my workout and then i'm gonna go shower after this that's for sure also um if you're tired of playing uh caldera you can instead throw up a rebirth or a fortune skip if you want so i've been having this idea um do i need to mute my stream for this idea no no okay i um i am thinking that so somehow in a week i have stick together sounds good man my bad for leaving you like multiple times and once i hit affiliate i am can do like follow and sub only streams and i think i'm going to do like a add like an extra day of like a follow only and do like a live tattoo session [Laughter] that oh dude that'd be dude that'd be way too sick bro you might you might fall into the trap of becoming a tattoo streamer instead of uh no i i don't want to be one of those but now i like i see that there's a there is actually like a market for that but i don't want to be that just because like to so whenever i did my seminar so like talking and tattooing is extremely difficult and it takes so much focus to do both well um so i think i could only handle that and it not interfere with my workflow like once a month or like maximum twice a month is that just yeah no worries man uh thank you for the games thank you for stopping by in the stream and if you come back in 10 minutes i'll see you man um have a good trip to the store no that's sick um so just once a month like do you think just that one stream a month would just like fry you they're like how big do you think it's gonna affect you a lot um just because like well i guess a lot of it depends on how how intense that session is and most of the stuff i work on are like extremely long pieces that are very like detailed so they take a lot of focus and so i mean it'd take me like a day or two to recover from it that's crazy dude what's like the shortest like tattoo or like the shortest session you've did or have done um i've done quite a few that were like 20 30 seconds oh so like just a little pencil or something that's funny yeah like a little cross or something that's cool was that back then or is do you still do that now i i will do it for people who are already like my clients of like big projects but that's too much effort to go through for and i so i do a three hour minimum so i mean you're paying six hundred dollars for something that took 20 seconds yeah so like i'll throw it in on a session for a client that i already work with but i'm not i'm not going out of my way to do that for someone damn well there goes my business just kidding no i mean if you flew out here i'd definitely do something for you hell yeah i'll just get elias like behind my ear or some [ __ ] something hardcore my lobbies are so messed up right now uh because oh hold on yeah margie uh i'm talking to roy uh he's a tattoo artist um and he also uh streams rocket league like right now he's streaming on twitch so i don't know how to chat in my own chat that is not good that is not good i should learn how to do that uh his name is inscribe but i'm gonna link you guys his twitch right now and stream he's a he's a tattoo artist uh he was my student about a full year ago almost two years ago and we just stayed in touch ever since this dude is amazing he's a talented artist and he just has one of the best work ethics i've ever seen i think he truly is going to change the game because his work ethic literally is oh okay i need to become the number one player in the world and win a championship done best tattoo artist best graphic designer best best marketer best everything talk to him uh here is his boom there you go yeah so um i just loaded up my own youtube channel to put that uh to put that link but for some reason on my stream elements i don't have one uh yeah uh margie if you're on you we can play right now but andrew invite me to a duo's or whatever i'm down to play are you cool if i still chat with roy or is that what i offend you dude i oh man mw2 roy yeah it's gonna be the modern warfare engine and supposedly the most advanced it has ever been um i'm just excited dude apparently war zone is gonna be like escape from tarkov or no they're they're making a third game mode that's like escape exciting dmz thing yes dmz you have you seen the leaks no i i've heard that like the only leak i saw was that they were actually making it i have they like released gameplay of it or anything uh so they took a bunch of cod partners um no one that plays call of duty just in the nfl and nba and everything um and they all uh took pictures of just behind the scenes and we just see like all the font loading screens and the actual game modes that are being played uh there's there's a lot of info that was released but no actual gameplay of course because i think that's actually gonna be this sunday i think this sunday we're gonna get gameplay and then uh the following week we're gonna get beta codes that's actually really dope yeah bro it i honestly feel like they're trying to slowly transition into like oculus rift territory um because the thing about this new call of duty the only thing that i've been thinking about is you can jump to even higher ledges now like your character will put his arms all the way up and then climb an entire bin or whatever um now is that like um okay so is that a preset animation or after the 15th marquee i will have an actual schedule after the 15th of august can you stop that like mid yeah i'm sure you'll be able to stop it yeah i'm sure you will so that's actually really cool and that's super hard to implement i was watching a video on that because um apex legends actually they did something similar to that where like so remember um i showed you where like you can hold on to a wall yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah i miss apex so much now go ahead yeah that um that was actually like apparently that's extremely hard to implement in code it takes a lot of stuff to do and it's hard to um optimize and very few games but now activision has the money to hire the right people to do that so i'm pretty sure that's actually going to be probably the best input implementation of that in a game they've been working on it no you're good they've been working on it for three years so i really hope so um i'm just i'm just really excited because have you seen any news about um vr esports no dude there's a lot of videos of uh just people in oculus rift just vring it out fps 5v5 snd and it is dirty bro and there's people trick shotting too man it sucks that i'm gonna be so old when like the competitive esports is like on i don't know if it's already player one but if it's on that level [Applause] i think uh i think we're definitely headed toward that direction that'd be so cool though because that brings a whole new aspect of like not only being physically fit but it's just it's i don't know but i actually feel like um give a major opportunity for like veterans for like first-person shooter games or tactical shooter games yeah it'd give an opportunity for like veterans to use their skill sets to like stream or make make money i'm glad oh damn no go ahead yeah no i was just gonna say um i'm glad that you're mentioning like the physical aspect because that is one big thing that's missing from esports is the uh like the physical health and the mental health um that's just like doesn't exist but when you look at optic gaming or if you look at just like phase like the teams that are winning they are on a diet plan they are making sure they get exercise daily they are making sure that they do the whole lifestyle part of being an athlete and that's only one team that's only like 10 of esport teams you know so yes that that's very true but i will say that there is a completely an entire different level that can be reached when like your body has to be at its optimal state [Music] these kids were like 14 15 years old like slaying in call of duty lobbies eating cheetos and like a good body fat percentage but because i i went through that transformation uh about a year and a half ago in and you turn into a completely different person i i live that just like i always talk about world war ii i felt like that was my prime for call of duty because i would be like i just focused so much on health like i would only eat rice tilapia and chicken um hold on [Applause] cool dude we're in a sweaty lobby bro um yeah yeah like just everyone's calling out right now it's like kind of embarrassing um yeah so i would only eat rice only eat chicken tilapia i'd run like three miles a day and i just i was just so focused on health um wouldn't do any drugs no drinking nothing and yeah dude i felt like i was a different beast and now now i just have so much more knowledge and experience with call of duty where i'm sitting here like [ __ ] dude if i just give it a go one last time just you know 10 years of just focusing only on health like how much can i achieve yeah i i mean being healthy is like it's like a real life cheat code yeah it really is yeah [ __ ] it i will say you got people like tyler1 who are extremely healthy and he's just trash at video games [Applause] yeah at the moment um i was asked to uh introduce you um and i said how like you have this best work ethic i've ever like ran into um granted you're like the first friend that's over like a teenager age or a young adult age um but yeah you just have like the best uh work ethic dude where not a second crosses my mind that you can't go pro in rocket league because you did it for call of duty i just you did it for call of duty bro like holy [ __ ] an fps now you're moving on to actual sports you're gonna you're you're golden bro like you have nothing to worry about like i said you're gonna break so many stigmas like what isn't it for uh professional sport athletes like isn't their prime like the age of like 28 to 34 or something like that yeah so in in most esports yes [Applause] like there's a difference between [Applause] a ssl and a pro and there's also a major difference between a pro and a top pro in in this game a lot of the pros in this game are like 28 29 um there was this dude named karma he's 32 and i mean he's he's insane um but i do think it's i think it's older because i actually believe it's the kind of the work ethic thing that you were talking about yeah um like you definitely have the right mindset oh yeah it's just a video game yeah i can go pro in this like i would say pretty much 80 percent of all players don't have that andrew can you back out so we can pick up uh margie my friend when you play trees like out of everybody i've been watching those are the players like i respect the 3v3 that oh man hey that just looks weird you think that looks weird yeah man those 1v1 players are just so good and like the whole time i was playing drexy yesterday i was just like it was really cool to play against him and like see all the things i needed to improve on but it was even cooler to be like and this guy is so dope but what i want to be is on a completely different level than what he's on yeah you're really focused on being like flakes right yeah just yeah even though i'm over here practicing something that like he says you shouldn't practice until you're like could you uh back out so we could pick up margie please thank you sorry oh cool damn he he heard me that time i messaged andrew i messaged you on discord i messaged in game i was like oh thank you though for backing out oh yeah my batman all right margee i invited you um and all in if you're still in here uh i invited you as well um yeah bro i i think like i don't like hearing that him saying oh man you shouldn't be working on this like you should play another year and then you should focus on this uh but again that's just my philosophy on jumping into the deep end you know yeah well i i mean i can [Music] i don't want to say that i'm like trying to master what i'm working on right now because i'm not i i'm trying to learn it because it's going to improve my gameplay in other areas like when i get bumped up in the air and i'm floating i'm going to be able to boost in the direction that i that i need to be on i think my chat is messed up maybe i i don't know go i mean just in what i've been practicing this yeah almost two hours i am i've gotten rid of remember when i was first talking like i'd accidentally push my stick in the wrong direction yeah i that's gone oh you just fixed that now it's just yeah is that gonna be subconsciously fixed in the next you know five hours tomorrow or i i don't know so so that's what that's why i'm just i haven't stopped yet that's good um i'm able to go up and just i have to ingrain the direction that that stick needs to go because if not i'm gonna mess it up absolutely when i switched over to keyboard and mouse for a little bit uh that's what i did i spent like three hours uh just hopping into plunder and then just getting my uh slide cancel patterns down um and yeah yeah i think it works i hope it works for you too oh that ball's a lot higher than i'm gonna go grab some water real quick all right yo uh margie uh i sent you invites um if you see me on your friends list you can join up whenever uh i'm gonna go grab some water real quick i'll be right how's it back go wrong way hmm weird are you having troubles uh joining margie and believe i hit that i think you could just load up a game i'm not sure where he is sorry about that so how are you liking being back streaming oh man it's i really really do enjoy it yeah um it is a little taxing though uh yeah just because it's summer and i have my setup in the room with no ac um and i just have one fan and it just gets so hot in here and i i know the feeling i got mine right next to a window that the sun beats down on all day long it's brutal yeah no absolutely dude um it sucks too because we had a tree we actually had a tree blocking the window and they chopped it down they they chopped down my beautiful tree bro it was me and my cat's favorite thing just to look outside there's a bird with the nest there's spiders there's it was just beautiful and they just chopped it down [Applause] not sure why uh because there's another tree and they didn't chop that one down uh because both trees were symmetrical to the complex yeah and they chopped down mine and they just they just left they left the other one and they did that literally three months ago so that's not a big fan of that uh but yeah no dude i i'm i'm a person that sweats a lot so very quickly my just hair looks all greasy you might see some pit stains on me um and then what else what else oh i just get delirious because it gets way too hot oh man i'm so i'm kind of the same way so this scully that i'm wearing will hey but you actually i i didn't i was talking about that the other day um we're kind of bringing up like um like the difference in like being a sweaty player and like actually being a sweaty player yes yeah full trihard mentality [Applause] i noticed it a couple days ago i was um when i was tattooed i am and i like i sweat like crazy but it's just that like reaching that optimal level of focus and for some reason this doesn't get me to that it should because when i was a bad player on rocket league i would still sweat yeah bro like okay so like how often does your hands get sweaty oh well i mean they're sweaty constantly okay good because i was gonna say my hands are sweaty constantly but definitely once i get into like my second third game oh yeah that's when like it's getting under the pits tits hair everything bro i look at that that's awesome girlfriends are awesome man yes they are one benefit about me uh [Applause] being friends with like older people like you and like i i also have like rich and like andrew and like multiple people um wow these kids burned me uh they all pretty much have like their wives or loved ones [Laughter] and it's just easy to relate you know it's just yeah yeah i got a girlfriend too mine does that too got someone in chat the other day i was um i i was talking to my girlfriend and um he was just like you have one of those and i was just like what yeah bro dude oh man call of duty is wild i mean the ball accidentally rolled in but i think he dc but his connections [Applause] after this game murky i got you [Applause] yo andrew is frying right now i think he does better when i don't talk [Applause] i got shot i can't catch a break [Applause] yo andrew is kicking ass right now holy [ __ ] yeah yeah bro i died like 10 times in game already and he's just clutching it up right now is that one of the people you've coached or one of your call of duty um pals from the past uh person i've oh [ __ ] person i've coached like damn i can't catch a break oh that's actually awesome man yeah no he's trying right now literally this is like my 10th death and he's just all right let me go get another kill for you real quick [Applause] like i'm hitting all my roots and everything and it's just not working for me i'm gonna keep doing it though mother [ __ ] dude like i can't catch a break like i'm getting sniped from top prison this is ridiculous holy [ __ ] damn all right i've tried everything i'm just gonna grab my loadout and i'm just gonna leave [Applause] until they redeploy [Applause] enemy clusters he's [Applause] all right i got a decent reset i finally got three plates for once [Applause] oh dude i'm sorry if i killed your ears but i just got the [ __ ] nastiest reset ever oh excuse my language but i tried so hard for that i tried so hard for that need to keep my mic away from my mouth my bad dude nah you're good these clowns are above us time is up contract failed stay vigilant resurgence just in case [Applause] yes he's moving [Applause] smart play man really smart play our team's in the safe zone oh these kids aren't real i play against the sweatiest players alive and then i just get bots like that man these games are hard to play [Applause] highlighted i know this guy probably thinks i'm a shitty player but he doesn't understand that i'm just rank really doesn't matter to me i'm just using it to play against people who are trying hard don't know how to get to this rooftop they're that hop up [Applause] damn i thought i had that nice shots [Applause] damn the one thing i always do with andrew though is i always uh choke the dub oh wow all right margie we'll back out right now so here's where i need to give myself yeah what's up has watched some flakes videos yeah it's possible yes like it is the most basic thing in other mine he hasn't watched enough of them then it's the boat most basic outplay but it works and i just check it because it was cool to see it used against me could you back out for uh trios please there we go yeah what do you use against you oh literally just hit the ball to the left just hit the ball to the left that was it just back to basically just hit the ball to the left and i went flying right by him but he doesn't know he might have watched that video once i've watched that video like 30 times just this week yeah are you uh how are you at it oh i'm i i'm not bad at all at it um nice one thing i like about this game is uh whenever i lose and i can give myself notes because it's so stupid if i just knew uh the right rotation if i just knew um how to do a certain hop up i would have got to the roof sooner and i would have flanked the enemy sooner and just because i didn't know it and i had to go the long route sure enough i died and love the little things you know but it hurts it hurts too it's very painful to deal with bro i do i can tell you how many turn him i can't tell you how many tournaments i lost just because i did the wrong play by accident or i just did a simple stupid mistake so what i'm gonna do right now is i'm gonna learn how to do it all right i could have just done this [Applause] could have definitely done this can you hear me yeah it going good how much do you mean elias gonna hear us now you fight a real enemy um i think he can hear us i just think that he's got us muted but yeah that's great yeah yeah you guys could chat uh and i can hear you too for call outs or whatever that's good enough i'm just gonna go to the roof it's weird having people want to play because i literally thought uh you and i would just talk and i would just be alone playing solos [Applause] oh no i'm sorry i thought i needed my mic i was talking to my girlfriend oh don't lie um i'm down to play whatever but damn why why was that lobby so sweaty literally every person had a ttv or a youtube in it and their clan tag that was crazy yeah it was way worse than the duos what's your kd margie yo what's your kd uh not good like 0.9 ish or something 0.8.9 maybe it was just luck of the draw we just got a sweaty lobby yeah i was i was hoping i could like reduce the kd for the group but clearly didn't help in that game everyone was just holding hands and trying to get clips it was crazy yeah in response to what you were saying i that's i normally just sit here and talk to myself and just kind of i guess no commentate to myself my own gameplay and that's why it works bro that's like that's like how you get success you know for like being in the flow state at least like getting your max practice and your max uh just playing for rocket league at least you can do that through commentating uh what ps4 or chat it's crazy how far youtube has come yeah and you know what's crazy i feel like those videos are actually pretty popular because now like when people see it they're like oh i've never seen this before a no-cut video like there's one youtube channel that just posted uh just uncut no commentary and they get tons of views it is crazy yeah i don't know i i definitely need to get on track to start doing that a lot more just those live commentaries because when i record in 1440p and i can upload it oh man the quality looks even better than the stream are you in a match right now are you talking about me yeah yeah i i am nice and it's actually a smart player so i have to like kind of focus up okay i'll take that back maybe he's not so smart i'm still gonna respect him like he's smart because he's just he's made some really good plays i am winning though you're on playstation not after that nearby [Applause] i always get mad props to people that play on console man why is that thing um the settings are like a lot worse than the fob so i think like when you adapt to that makes you a better player yeah i uh i'm not a hardcore player like you guys clearly so oh [Applause] yeah normally when i like seeing like two students meet it feels so weird just how when you met rich that one time i'd rather i don't know it's just crazy like that's how all right humanity works you just know people and then you meet each other up that's about it that's just crazy [Applause] i'm behind you right now [Applause] a lot more fun when you're surrounded by like-minded ignore the trunk on me [Applause] about to die my push [Music] [Applause] oh [Applause] that was so nasty [Applause] does it care about you guys [Applause] oh yeah my squad is lit right now bro [Applause] we have another one here somewhere what a challenge might be me [Applause] yeah we can go there nice shot shooting to my right far away but it looked like a sniper i found plates wow holy crap or bonnie bounty [Applause] oh we got enough for uh the guy in front of us up the hill in that house [Applause] i'll stay with the lies i'll stay with you guys i'm so try hard right now what's up oh i'm just trying super hard right now hostile uav is out of fuel [Applause] yep these guys are watching me did i get dude i always get afraid of getting shadow banned like on [Applause] oh i got specialist bonus bro this is going to be a good game i'm sure everybody is on me here there's a guy on red paper they'll fight for a chance to redeploy i hate it when like i use the exact same gun against the person and then um it's like their gun's better yeah yeah dude it's so annoying because i'm always just like spamming my jump button like thinking that's gonna be the difference it never is [Applause] you win this fight and you return to the front line but if you lose you're done [Applause] so bad [Applause] yo i wanted to support you i wish i could see what was going on i have your stream on but so that it doesn't like make me lag i turned it down to like i think it's 144. resolution so like right it is so blurry classic youtube i can't find enough cash to buy this guy come on i'm sorry andrew i am trying hey there we go my spy station there too but how many people are camping these buildings into the new safe zone enemy maneuvering amber heard stern killed some guy named amber hurts turd oh man me sushi roll 69 just got fried sushi holy [ __ ] dude that sounds so good i haven't had sushi in a full year that was the one dish i tried to eat um when i was gonna try to pescetarian a little obviously um man it was so delicious but tore it up my stomach really at all i could have done that so much better my brain kind of lagged oh oh lunch break was over all right no problem margie thanks for the game at least man have a good uh rest of your day at work man uh andrew if you're in here uh you don't uh we could play uh rebirth or anything else that you'd like okay cool all right yo andrew margee thanks for thanks for the games guys i hope you guys have a great rest of your day especially thanks for stopping by the stream really helps me out i hope you guys have a great day thank you so much ah man sometimes you focus a little too much and you just make the worst play of your life i could have landed on top of a roof got three easy kills and instead i just made it harder for myself just landed right out in the open i'm sorry man i i don't know if you said something i was i was focused in like i was i was inside that car driving perfect bro hell yeah i much rather have you do that yeah i was playing a smurf thank you margie oh slowly drifting you're slowly drifting back into the car yes i am and i'm i'm learning i'm not playing smurfs these are um i didn't know i was already back up the plat and i'm almost plat too but these games were getting so intense do what a shot oh man oh my girls good it's some [ __ ] bottom fell out out by my place what do you mean the bottom fell out of your place um rain it's a southern term yeah never heard of it yeah the bottom fell out it's uh it's uh what does it mean i had the bottom fell out of the sky the bottom yeah i know i lost for words [Applause] thank you buddy i really needed that boost and you put the ball literally [Applause] in my corner so that i could get boosts they're so nice this is like [Applause] i was super focused in man how did you get that kill last page which kill are you talking about the one in the air you don't want to breathe didn't have to work today oh my god that poor kid somebody saved them um i i'm doing pretty good man just kind of woke up and after playing against yesterday i decided i was gonna try and learn how to do some aerial control and it was it was pretty hilarious not even a threat [Applause] alan thank you no no you're good bro um unfortunately i'm about to get off in about 30 minutes i'm just going to play like two solos and then i'm going to head out um but it was good playing with you and we could probably play next time um list not last kill this page on the lobby screen oh okay so you go to barracks so uh when you're just in the main lobby there's barracks and then uh you click on barracks and then you click on warzone kills and then it shows your you your overall kd but that kd only counts for um the kd only counts for uh caldera you got anything going on today man where is this [Applause] drop on the way [Applause] i really thought i was going to be able to find enough for my loadout but unlucky yes so elias i have been streaming for a little over three hours okay and that chat command that timer on that bot just came through and it set on 10 minutes don't score that like it's supposed to pop up every 10 15 minutes and it just popped up three hours and 23 minutes three hours and 23 minutes later yes that's not good [Applause] absolutely [Applause] how to not kill that kid by running an order by the way [Applause] kill the dumb potato coming up um hold up how did that guy not die [Applause] come on let me call in the kill streak designating airstrike target strike is active everyone watching me right now probably thinks i'm a hacker bro i have just perfect centering right now i think p a lot of people don't understand that that is a skill set [Applause] this poor kid if he would slow down he would be so much faster bro draxi if you saw that you'd be so proud baby girl how's those roads out there yeah i figured it was i was starting to get worried uh sherbert thank you this scope such sucks so much [Applause] oh i got that fries so bad enemy uav active nebula firefall was detonated in the distance this meta right now if you need a gun that shoots very straight use the kg40 the one that i'm using right now uh if you want to get a lot of damage down go for the nz nz41 um and the submachine guns again armagura meta marco 5 or the blixen those are just always the best guns oh yeah i forgot you're you're across the water so it's a little bit later in the day for you that kid flipped so far dude i have the worst scope in the game i hate it so much oh i'm actually down what the hell am i doing i don't know what that guy was doing might be going out man things are so crazy i haven't been out and so on well i mean i go outside but like our economy isn't horrible but i mean we have a great economy just what a play um it's just things are super expensive right now but hey bro you actually stepped in right as i was about to take a second to eat my lunch real quick so i i'm gonna hop off i'll be back in like 10 15 minutes man you're still around hey uh oh is somebody eat some food real quick man yeah sounds good man all right okay bro if you're on you're still on um just hit me up if not i'll i don't i work all day tomorrow all day one day i mean all day sunday but then i'm all and i'll be back on the grind but thanks so much for stopping in today bro i really appreciate it [Applause] who else died here foreign [Applause] area recon coming up uav beginning flyover what's up oh you got to be joking me i knew someone was there bro oh my god look at this angle good for that kid good for that kid you deserve that [Applause] i knew that there was a kid under me and i knew that there was one more kid above me i was just waiting to get shot at unfortunately it was a freaking sniper [Applause] well this sucks now i'm just not going to have a loadout for the next five minutes i have to kill someone this spawn me all the way out here i don't even have time to grab my loot it's unfortunate bro just gotta do it the hard way he shoots he scores he does i see anyone here i don't see anyone so far how lucky is that oh and a redeploy so i can at least find enough for my loadout hopefully buy yourself okay see camping up top he's just out in the open [Applause] hot stuff oh [Applause] i am on one right now [Applause] dude what kind of guns are these people using by the way ots just ugly classes honestly [Applause] converted to plunder what does that on the mean [Applause] [Music] dude i got [ __ ] oh my lord [Applause] ugh dude everyone's using this thing's insane [Applause] yes um there i go again thinking i can just out gun someone like he missed so many bullets i literally thought i can outgun them and then i don't know where my plates and everything just depletes that sucks dude i guess that's what i get for having an ego though like dang uh um that's why i always preach the second that a person hits you with one bullet just get behind cover because that happens uh practice that better especially if i spam crouch right there if i spam crouch that would definitely probably had a better chance winning that gun fight last game i actually want to play at quads so level 66 and then i get to be the greatest player in the game okay that's a skin okay all right i'm back welcome back sorry man i had to get some food in me yeah no that's that's why this is my last game i'm about to get off and go get some food yeah make myself another ketchup sandwich have you ever had a place called a firehouse subs yeah um i think i've only had it once though me and my girlfriend had it i had a roommate that worked there and uh he'd always hook it up or he'd just go stupid on the sandwich um yeah my favorite sandwich place oh yeah [Applause] what a nade [Applause] i think i might actually play some tunes today scrims no just ranked um no i'm [Applause] kind of playing with drexy showed me i am i got a ways to go before oh why did i do that um hey i got a ways to go before i'm ready before i'm ready for tunes for like scrims yeah i get you i need to be back as fast as possible okay right now it's crazy why is my game so laggy i guess i really need to take a break after this nah bro this is the server this is not me oh yeah [Applause] let's make this quick yeah i'm gonna queue up some ranked tubes this is gonna be interesting i got pinched out by like a pro team or something three [Applause] get ready [Applause] down one down one bottom floor [Applause] yes [Applause] thank you so much [Applause] what a save homie drop on the way [Applause] so there's attacking points oh god teammate bro i was trying to pass you the ball but you come right up on me go go go go go go go oh my god what are you doing yeah what's taking my teammates so long to help me out oh man my teammate is toxic as hell okay there's a few different people dude oh my lordy i cannot catch a break right there [Applause] so i see one guy pushing up on my left one guy two people hit the zip oh i'm playing quads not trios that's why dang it yeah i think that's about time where i head out i forget that i'm playing quads 1500 platinums are so toxic yeah they are my teammate and like i'm the one that's done all the work and this fool's just over here like what a save on everything what a safe what a save what to say you go [Applause] i missed the ball there goes the first match don't know what it is i just feel that finnish players are way better than octane players are you a fennec player yes i am i wonder if that's your answer i hope [Applause] is eyes on shooter your teammate was broken they're no longer with us facebook gaming [Applause] nice shot homie this game is so stupid man [Applause] me and my teammate are doing the same crap that me and you do yeah it's like leaving the ball for each other and neither one of us grab it tragic pass on me i'm open i'm opening highlighting [Applause] okay [Applause] i love you baby he missed like a plat player missed like a plaque i know my teammate was probably talking to himself like what the hell is he doing on the wall and like he was just like okay i got this and he and he just like came up and took the ball oh pass that out homie uh i don't get angry at this game uh just because it's just a video game at the end of the day you know um i treat this very seriously i treat this like a job and you know i treat it like a career i treat it like a professional athlete well not too much like a professional athlete i i definitely need to work on uh eating better and working out more um but i just really uh focus uh on remembering that this is just a game and there's more important things [Applause] uh there's way more important things to life such as like family and just so much more um so i just don't get angry because i can go outside and touch grass and i know that that's gonna be better than i don't know i'm going off on a tangent at this point i just don't get angry i i really worked on it though i really really did work on it a lot i just always try to learn something from every death every loss i and i still get angry too i mean you've seen it like i die super stupid ways and i i definitely get upset um but i just don't let it bother me it's up to my teammate he passes it to me he intercepts go ahead [Applause] like right there like right there i had the perfect flank to kill all three of those enemies and i flanked too wide where that guy heard me and he shot me in my side like that's why i lost right there and i'm very upset at that because that's a super simple mistake that i should never make i should have been able to look at my mini-map see that i was parallel to the barracks understood that guy was already pushing up turn around get onto that head glitch and just start killing them immediately i took an extra one second two seconds just to push up to get on a better position and that's what got me killed um i don't know why my teammates left i got zero faith and like it's funny too because my teammates blame that on me and it sucks because i did have the flank i did have the play to kill all three of them but they're behind cover they're getting shot first get behind cover don't die because if you just slay down behind cover they're going to spend 15 seconds pushing up on you and then there i am behind them to flank them um and that's just where like you know if you if you're angry and you let your emotions take away your game you're never gonna learn you know you have to have fun and that's what's gonna help you learn um those guys will probably stay 1.0 kds for the rest of their lives the reason why they blame it on their teammates and right there i could easily blame it on them but that was literally the last thing i did and they left me too like they don't have any faith in me it's pretty crazy that guy is angry [Applause] hopefully my teammate can get that off oh buddy what are you doing you were second man [Applause] with this bounce off the wall [Applause] my teammate with the [ __ ] demo

you gotta grab some pads i passed that mid thinking that he would have been there i guess i need to stop thinking demo would have been nice and he's all the way on the other side of the field that was actually my fault i tried to cut at the same time that he tried to cut because i didn't trust him to cut in on that when i should have just picked up the goal and that would never happen this is my

73yeumTSWRo | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=73yeumTSWRo | Two Simple Pen Spinning Combos I Do While Browsing The Web | how about two simple mini combos I like to do with my left hand while using the right one for browsing the web elegant satisfying suitable for beginners and the reason to combine as you will see at the end of this video the first combo looks like this we start with a wiper T1 and S Pen moves down the middle finger stays straight so the pen can fall on the ring finger in Slot 2 3. next I turn my hand Palm down and make Sonic 2 3 2 1 2 while holding the pen mode by its grip I keep doing this circular motion and the lead pen move between my index and middle finger just like an Infinity trick and then when the pen is under my palm I push it further with my ring finger to make thumb around at that moment you have enough time to smoothly curve middle finger to smoothly land the pan in a good position for a flick [Music] to keep it simple let's end the mini combo with the Classic Link when you do flip when the pen finishes the full circle on thumb flip guide it to land between middle and dream fingers and slots to 3. to make it easier you can raise them slightly while keeping the middle finger away from the pen allowing to pull naturally in Slot 2 3. from there make Sonic 2 3 2 1 2 and push pen down when it is perpendicular to index finger to make Neo Sonic the pen should land either between thumb and index finger or in thumb flap [Music] the second micro combo is more of a link actually it's more challenging and requires some practicing I do half tab or full tap and Lead pen mode go down on my fingers like stairs while keeping it spinning it's simple to get the motion but mastering it will take a lot of time much less however if you use these following hints take the panel like this tap it with the index finger closer to its cap try the lead Pen mods to towards two fingers upper Fallen while keeping the middle finger a bit away further than index finger this way you can go down up to your pinky and the spend mode follows on it you fix it in slot 3. can push it with a ring finger to make thumb round [Music] and now as we can do both mini combos we can finally connect them into a nice combo [Music] so we go with the first mini move through the flick trick up to a link Sonic 2 3 2 1 2 to Neo Sonic while doing this trick make sure to maintain contact of your index finger with your pen keep it closer to mods cap and reuse your thumb to guide the pan mode on thumbflap and from this point just keep it on with the second link so which of those two mini combos did you like more let me know in the comments this way I will also know that you are in the minority of those who have managed to watch this video up to this point in a total minority till the next time cheers | Pen Stock | UCW-pN5IB2Iw5hNWfGFXGuQw | 2023-01-25 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 550 | 2,699 |

mother hive if the stock had not been old and overcrowded the wax moth would never have entered but where bees are too thick on the comb there must be sickness or parasites the heat of the hive had risen with the june honey flow and though the farmers worked until their wings ached to keep people cool everybody suffered a young bee crawled up the greasy trampled lighting board excuse me she began but it's my first honey flight could you kindly tell me if this is my own hive the guard snapped yes buzz in and be foul rooted to you next shame cried half a dozen old workers with worn wings and nerves and there was a scuffle and a hum the little grey wax moth pressed close in a crack in the alighting board had waited this chance all day she scuttled in like a ghost and knowing the senior bees would turn her out at once dodged into a brood frame where youngsters who had not yet seen the winds blow or the flowers nod discussed life here she was safe for young bees will tolerate any sort of stranger behind her came the bee who had been slaying by the guard what is the world like melissa said a companion cruel i brought in a full load of first class stuff and the guard told me to go and be foul brooded she sat down in the cool draw across the cones if you'd only heard said the wax moth silkily the insolence of the guard's tone when she cursed our sister it aroused the entire community she laid an egg she had stolen in for that purpose there was a bit of a fuss on the gate melissa chuckled you were there miss she did not know how to address the slim stranger don't call me miss i'm a sister to all in affliction just a working sister my heart bled for you beneath your burden the wax moth caressed melissa with her soft feelers and laid another egg you mustn't lay here cried melissa you aren't a queen my dear child i give you my most solemn word of honor those aren't eggs those are my principles and i'm ready to die for them she raised her voice a little above the wrestle and around her if you'd like to kill me pray do don't be unkind melissa said a young bee impressed by the chaste folds of the wax mott's wing which hid her ceaseless egg dropping i haven't done anything melissa answered she's doing it all ah don't let your conscience reproach you later but when you've killed me write me at least as one that loved her fellow worker laying at every song the wax moth backed into a crowd of young bees and left melissa bewildered and annoyed so she lifted up her little voice in the darkness and cried stores till a gang of self-fillers hailed her and she left her load with them i am afraid i foul birded you just now said a voice over her shoulder i'd been on the gate for three hours and one would foul brood the queen herself after that no offense meant none taken melissa answered cheerily i shall be on guard myself someday what's next to do there's a rumor of death's head moths about send a gang of youngsters to the gate and tell them to narrow it in with a couple of stout scrap wax pillars it'll make the hive hot but we can't have death's headers in the middle of our honey flow my only wings i should think not melissa had all a sound b's hereditary hatred against the big squeaking feathery thief of the hives tumble out she called across the youngster's quarters all you who aren't feeding babies show a leg scrapbox pillars for the gate she chanted the order at length that's nonsense a downey they will be answered in the first place i never heard of a death's header coming into a hive people don't do such things in the second building pillars to keep him out is purely a cypriot trick unworthy of british bees in the third if you trust a death's head he will trust you pillar building shows a lack of confidence our dear sister in gray says so yes pillars are on english and provocative and a waste of wax that is needed for higher and more practical ends said the wax mouth from an empty store cell the safety of the hive is the highest thing i've ever heard of you mustn't teach us to refuse work melissa began you misunderstand me as usual love works the essence of life but to expend precious unreturning vitality and real labor against imaginary danger that is heartbreakingly absurd if i can only teach a little toleration a little ordinary kindness here toward that absurd old bogey you call the death's header i shan't have lived in vain she hasn't lived in maine the darling cried twenty b's together you should see her saintly life melissa she just devote herself to spreading her principles and and she looks lovely an old baldish bee came up the comb pillar workers for the gate get out and chew scraps buzz off she said the wax moth slipped aside the young beasts troop down the frame whispering what's the matter with them said the oldster why do they call each other ducky and darling must be the weather she sniffs suspiciously horrid stuffy smell here like stale quilts not wax moth i hope melissa not to my knowledge said melissa who of course only knew the whacksmith as a lady with principles and had never thought to report her presents she had always imagined wax moths to be like blood red dragonflies you had better fan out this corner for a little said the old bee and passed on melissa dropped her head at once took firm hold with her forefeet and fanned immediately at the regulation stroke 300 beats to the second fanning tries a bee's temper because she must always keep in the same place where she never seems to be doing any good and all the while she is wearing out her only wings when a bee cannot fly a bee must not live and the bee knows it the wax moth crept forward and caressed melissa again i see she murdered that at heart you are one of us i work with the hive melissa answered briefly it's the same thing we and the hive are one then why are your feelers different from ours don't cuddle so don't be provincial charissima you can't have all the world alike yet but why do you lay eggs melissa insisted you lay em like a queen only you drop them in patches all over the place i've watched you ah bright eyes so you've pierced my little subterfuge yes they are eggs by and by they'll spread our principles aren't you glad you gave me your most solemn word of honor that they were not eggs that was my little subterfuge dearest for the sake of the cause now i must reach the young the wax moth tripped toward the fourth brood frame where the young bees were busy feeding the babies it takes some time for a sound bee to realize a malignant and continuous lie she's very sweet and feathery was all that melissa thought but her talk sounds like ivy honey taste i'd better get to my field work again she found the gate in a sulky uproar the youngsters told off to the pillars had refused to chew scrap wax because it made their jaws ache and were clamoring for virgin stuff anything to finish the job said the badgered guards hang up some of you and make wax for these slack jogged sisters before a bee can make wax she must fill herself with honey then she climbs to safe foothold and hangs while other gorged bees hang on to her in a cluster then they wait in silence till the wax comes the scales are either taken out of the maker's pockets by the workers or tinkled down on the workers while they wait the workers to them they are useless unchewed into the all supporting all-embracing wax of the hive but now no sooner was the wax cluster in position then the workers below broke out again come down they cried come down and work come on you levantine parasites don't think to enjoy yourselves up there while we're sweating down here the cluster shivered as from hooked forefoot to hooked hind foot it telegraphed uneasiness at last a worker sprang up grabbed the lowest wax maker and swung kicking above her companions i can make wax too she bald give me a full gorge and i'll make tons of it make it then said the bee she had grappled the spoken word snapped the current through the cluster it shook and glistened like a cat's fur in the dark unhook it murmured no wax for anyone today you lazy thieves hang up at once and produce our wax said the bees below impossible the sweat's gone to make your wax we must have stillness warmth in food unhook unhook they broke up as they murmured and disappeared among the other bees from whom of course they were indistinguishable seems as if we'd have to choose scrap wax for these pillars after all said a worker not by a whole comb cried the young bee who had broken the cluster listen here i've studied the question more than 20 minutes it's as simple as falling off a daisy you've heard of cheshire root and langstroth they had not but they shouted good old langstroth just the same those three know all there is to be known about making hives one or the other of them must have made ours and if they've made it they are bound to look after it ours is a guaranteed patent hive you can see it on the label behind good old guarantee hurrah for the label behind roared the bees well such being the case i say that when we find they've betrayed us we can exact from them a terrible vengeance good old vengeance good ol root nuff said chuck it the crowd cheered and broke away as melissa dived through do you know where langstroth root and cheshire live if you happen to want them she asked of the proud panting orator gum me if i know they ever lived at all but aren't they beautiful names to buzz about did you see how it worked up the sisterhood yes but it didn't defend the gate she replied ah perhaps that's true but think how delicate my position is sister i have a magnificent appetite and i don't like working it's bad for the mind my instinct tells me that i can act as a restraining influence on others they would have been worse but for me but melissa had already risen clear and was heading for a breath of virgin white clover which to an overtired bee is as soothing as plain knitting to a woman i think i'll take this load to the nurseries she said when she had finished it was always quiet there in my day and she topped off with two little pets of pollen for the babies she was met on the fourth brood comb by a rush of excited sisters all buzzing together one at a time one at a time let me put down my load now what is it sakarissa she said gray sister that fluffy one i mean she came and said we ought to be out in the sunshine gathering honey because life was short she said any old bee could attend to our babies and someday old bees would that isn't true melissa is it no old bees can take us away from our babies can they of course not you feed the babies when your heads are soft when your head's hardened you go on to field work anyone knows that we told herself we told her so but she only waved her feelers and said we could all lay eggs like queens if we chose and i'm afraid lots of the weaker sisters believe her and are trying to do it so unsettling sakurisa spread to a sealed worker cell whose lid pulsated as the bee within began to cut its way out come along precious she murmured and thinned the feral top from the other side a pale damp creased thing hoisted itself feebly onto the cone sakura says no changed at once no time to waste go up the frame and preen yourself she said report for nursing duty in my war tomorrow evening at six stop a minute what's the matter with your third right leg the young bee hugged it out in silence unmistakably a drone leg incapable of packing pollen thank you you needn't report till the day after tomorrow sacarissa turned to her companion that's the fifth oddity hatched in my ward since noon i don't like it there's always a certain number of them said melissa you can't stop a few working sisters from laying now and then when they over feed themselves they only raise dwarf drones but we're hatching out drones with workers stomachs workers with drone stomachs and albinos and mixed leggers who can't pack pollen like that poor little beast yonder i don't mind dwarf drones any more than you do they all die in july but the steady hatch of oddities frightens me melissa how narrow of you they are all so delightfully clever and unusual and interesting pipe the wax moth from a crack above them come here you dear downy duck and tell us all about your feelings i wish she'd go sakarissa lowered her voice she meets these er oddities as they dry out and cuddles them in corners i suppose the truth is that we're overstocked and too well fed to swarm said melissa that is the truth said the queen's voice behind them they had not heard the heavy royal football which sets empty cells vibrating zacharisa offered her food at once she ate and dragged her weary body forward can you suggest a remedy she said no principles cried the wax moth from her crevice we'll apply them quietly later suppose we sent out a swarm melissa suggested it's a little late but it might ease us off it would save us but i know the hive you shall see for yourself the old queen cried the swarming cry to which a beat of good blood should be what the trumpet was to jobs warhorse in spite of her immense age three years it rang between the cannon-like frames as a pig rock rings in a mountain pass the fanners changed their note and repeated it up in every gallery and the broadway drones burly and eager ended it on one nerf thrilling outbreak of bugles loren lever swarm swarm swarm but the roar which should follow the call was wanting they heard a broken grumble like the murmur of a falling tide swarm what for catch me leaving a good bar frame hive with fixed foundations for rotten old oak out in the open where it may rain any minute we're all right it's a patent guaranteed hive why do they want to turn us out swarming be gummed swarming was invented to cheat a worker out of her proper comfort come on off to bed the noise died out as the bees settled in empty cells for the night you hear said the queen i know the hive quite between ourselves i taught them that cried the wax mouth wait till my principles develop and you will see the light from a new quarter you speak truth for once the queen said suddenly for she recognized the wax moth that light will break into the top of the hive a hot smoke will follow it and your children will not be able to hide in any crevice is it possible melissa whispered i we have sometimes heard a legend like it it is no legend the old queen answered i had it from my mother and she had it from hers after the wax moth has grown strong a shadow will fall across the gate a voice will speak from behind a veil there will be light and hot smoke and earthquakes and those who live will see everything that they have done all together in one place burned up in one great fire the old queen was trying to tell what she had been told of the bee masters dealing with an infected hive in the apiary two or three seasons ago and of course from her point of view the affair was as important as the day of judgment and then asked horrified sakharissa then i have heard that a little light will burn in a great darkness and perhaps the world will begin again myself i think not the wax moth cried you good fat people always prophecy ruin if things don't go exactly your way but i grant you there will be changes there were when her eggs hatched the wax was riddled with little tunnels coated with the dirty clothes of caterpillars flannely lions ran through the honey stores the pollen larders the foundations and worst of all threw the babies in their cradles till the sweeper guards spent half their time tossing out useless little corpses the lines ended in a maze of sticky rubbing on the face of the comb the caterpillars could not stop spinning as they walked and as they walked everywhere they smarmed and garmed everything even where it did not hamper the bees feet the stale sour smell of the stuff put them off their work though some of the bees who had taken to egg laying said it encouraged them to be mothers and maintain a vital interest in life when the caterpillars became moths they made friends with the ever increasing oddities albinos mixed leggers single lied composites faceless drones half queens and lighting sisters and the ever dwindling band of the old stock worked themselves bald and fraying to feed their queer charges most of the oddities would not and many on account of their malformations could not go through a day's field work but the wax moths who are always busy on the brood comb found pleasant home occupations for them one albino for instance divided the number of pounds of honey in stock by the number of bees in the hive and proved that if every bee only gathered honey for seven and three quarter minutes a day she would have the rest of the time to herself and could accompany the drones on their mating flights the drones were not at all pleased another an eyeless drone with no feelers said that all brood cells should be perfect circles so as not to interfere with the grub or the workers he proved that the old six-sided cell was solely due to the workers building against each other on opposite sides of the wall and that if there were no interference there would be no angles some bees tried the new plan for a while and found it cost eight times more wax than the old six-sided specification and as they never allowed a cruster to hang up and make wax in peace real wax was scarce however they eked out their task with varnish stolen from new coffins at funerals and it made them rather sick then they took to catching around sugar factories and breweries because it was easiest to get their materials from those places and the mixture of glucose and beer naturally fermented in store and blew the store shells out of shape besides smelling abominably some of the sound bees warned them that ill-gotten gains never prosper but the oddities at once surrounded them and bawled them to death there was a punishment they were almost as fond of as they were of eating and they expected the sound bees to feed them curiously enough the age-old instinct of loyalty and devotion towards the hive made the sound bees do this though their reason told them they ought to slip away and unite with some other healthy stock in the apiary what about seven and three quarters minutes work now said melissa one day as she came in i've been at it for five hours and i've only half a load oh the hive subsists on the hival honey which the hive produces said a blind oddity squatting in a sore cell but the honey is gathered from flowers outside two miles away sometimes cried melissa pardon me said the blind thing sucking hard but this is the hive is it not it was worse luck it is and the hival honey is here is it not it opened a fresh store cell to prove it yes but it won't be long at this rate the rates have nothing to do with it this hive produces the high ball honey you people never seem to grasp the economic simplicity that underlies all life oh me said poor melissa haven't you ever been beyond the gate certainly not a fool's eyes are in the ends of the earth mine are in my head it gorged till it bloated melissa took refuge in her poorly paid field work and told sakura's other story hut said that wise bee fretting with an old maid of a thistle tell us something new the hive's full of such as him it i mean what's the end going to be all the honey going out and none coming in things can't last this way said melissa who cares said sakarissa i know now how drones feel the day before they're killed a short life and a merry one for me if it only were merry but think of those awful solemn lopsided oddities waiting for us at home crawling and clambering and preaching and dirtying things in the dark i don't mind that so much as their silly songs after we fed him all about work among the mary mary blossoms said sakurasa from the deeps of a stale canterbury bell i do how's our queen said melissa cheerfully hopeless as usual but she lays an egg now and then does she sew melissa backed out of the next bell with a jerk suppose now we sound workers tried to raise a princess in some clean corner you'd be put to it to find one the hives all wax moth and monkeys but well a princess might help us in the time of the voice behind the veil that the queen talks of anything is better than working for oddities that chirp about work that they can't do and waste what we bring home who cares said zacharus i'm with you for the fun of it the oddities would ball us to death if they knew come home and we'll begin there is no room to tell how the experienced melissa found a far off frame so messed and mishandled by abandoned cell building experiments that for very shame the bees never went there how in that ruin she blocked out a royal cell of sound wax but disguised by rubbish till it looked like a copy among deserted copies how she prevailed upon the hopeless queen to make one last effort and layaware the egg how the queen obeyed and died how her spent carcass was flung out on the rubbish heap and how a multitude of laying sisters went about dropping drone eggs where they listed and said there was no more need of queens how covered by this confusion sacarissa educated certain young bees to educate certain newborn bees in the lost art of making royal jelly how the nectar for it was one out of hours in the teeth of chill wind how the hidden egg hatched true no drone but blood royal how it was capped and how desperately they worked to feed and double feed the now swarming oddities lest any break in the food supplies should set them to instituting inquiries which with songs about work was their favorite amusement how in an auspicious hour on a moonless night the princess came forth the princess indeed and how melissa smuggled her into a dark empty honey magazine to bide her time and how the drones knowing she was there went about singing the deep disreputable love songs of the old days the scandal of the laying sisters who do not think well of jones these things are written in the book of queens which is laid up in the hollow of the great ash yedrassel after a few days the weather changed again and became glorious even the oddities would now join the crowd that hung out on the a lighting board and would sing of work among the merry merry blossoms till an untrained ear might have received it for the hum of a working hive yet in truth their store honey had been eaten long ago they lived from day to day on the efforts of the few sound bees while the wax moth fretted and consumed again their already ruined wax but the sound bees never mentioned these matters they knew if they did the oddities would hold the meeting and ball them to death now you see what we have done said the wax moths we have created new material a new convention a new type as we said we would and new possibilities for us said the laying sisters gratefully you have given us a new life's work vital and paramount more than that chanted the oddities in the sunshine you have created a new heaven and a new earth heaven cloudless and accessible it was a perfect august evening an earth teeming with the merry merry blossoms waiting only our honest toil to turn them all to good the aster and the croakus and the ur lady smock in her season the chrysanthemum after her kind and the golden rose bringing forth abundantly with all oh holy jimenez said melissa astra i knew they didn't know how honey was made but they've forgotten the order of the flowers what will become of them a shadow fell across the alighting board as the bee master and his son came by the oddities crawled in and a voice behind the veil said i have neglected the old hive too long give me the smoker melissa heard and darted through the gate come o come she cried it is the destruction the old queen foretold princess come really you are too archaic for words said an oddity in an alleyway a cloud i admit may have crossed the sun but why hysterics above all why princesses so late in the day are you aware it's the hiveal tea time let's sing grace melissa clawed past him with all six lights sakarissa had run to what was left of the fertile brood cone down and out she called across the broad breath of it nurses guards fanners sweepers out never mind the babies they're better dead out before the light in the hot smoke the princess's first clear fearless call melissa had found her rose and drummed through all the frames la rain la vu swarm swarm swarm the hive shook beneath the shattering thunder of a struck down quilt being torn back don't be alarmed dears said the wax moths that's our work look up and you'll see the dawn of a new day light broke in the top of the hive as the queen had prophecy naked light on the boiling bewildered bees sakarisa had rounded up her rear guard which dropped headlong off the frame and joined the princess's detachment threshing toward the gate now panic was in full blast and each sound bee found herself embraced by at least three oddities the first instinct of a frightened bee is to break into the stores and gorge yourself with honey but there were no stores left so the oddities fought with the sound bees you must feed us or we shall die they cried holding and clutching and slipping while the silent scared earwigs and little spiders twisted between their legs think of the hive traitors the holy hive you should have thought before cried the sound bees stay and see the dawn of your new day they reached the gate at last over the soft body of many to whom they had ministered on out up roared melissa in the princess's ear for the hive's sake to the old oak the princess left the alighting board circled once and flung herself at the lowest branch of the old oak and her little loyal swarm you could have covered it with a pint mug followed hooked and hung hold close melissa guest the old legends have come true look the hive was half hidden by smoke they heard a frame crack stickily saw it heaved high and twirled around between enormous hands blotched bulged and perished horror of grey wax corrupt brood and small drone cells all covered with crawling oddity strained to the sun why this isn't a hive this is a museum of curiosities said the voice behind the veil it was only the bee master talking to his son can you blame him father said a second voice it's rotten with wax moth see here another frame came up a finger poked through it and it broke away in rustling flakes of ashy rottenness number four frame that was your mother's pet comb once whispered melissa to the princess manny's the good egg i've watched her lay there aren't you confusing post hoc with prompter hawk said the bee master wax moth only succeed when weak bees let them in a third frame crackled and rose into the light all this is full of laying workers brewed that never happens till the stalk weakened phew he beat it on his knee like a tambourine and it also crumbled to pieces the little swarm shivered as they watched the dwarf drone grub square and feebly on the grass many sound bees had nursed on that frame well knowing their work was useless but the actual sight of even useless work destroyed disheartens a good worker no they have some recuperative power left said the second voice here's a queen cell but it's tucked away among what on earth has come to the little riches they seem to have lost the instinct of cell building the father held up the frame where the bees had experimented in circular cell work it looked like the pitted heart of a decaying toadstool not all together the sun corrected there's one line at least of perfectly good cells my work said sakura said to herself i'm glad man does me justice before that frame too was smashed out and thrown on top of the others and the foul earwiggy quilts as frame after frame followed it the swarm beheld the upheaval exposure and destruction of all that had been well or ill done in every clan of their high for generations past there was black combs so old that they had forgotten where it hung orange buff and ochre varnish store comb built as bees were used to build before the days of artificial foundations there was a little white frail new work there were sheets on sheets of level even brood comb that had held in its time unnumbered thousands of unnamed workers patches of obsolete drone comb broad and high shoulder showing what marks the male grub was expected to grow and two inch deep honey magazines empty but still magnificent the hole gummed and glued into twisted scrap work awry on the wires half cells beginnings abandoned or grandiose weak walled composite cells pieced out with rubbish and capped with dirt good or bad every inch of it was so riddled by the tunnels of the wax moth that it broke into clouds of dust as it was flung on the heap oh see cried sacrista the great burning that our queen foretold who can bear to look a flame crawled up the pile of rubbish and they smelt singing wax the figure stooped lifted the hive and shook it upside down over the pyre a cascade of oddities chips of broken comb scale fluff and grub slid out crackled sizzled popped a little and then the flames roared up and consumed all that fuel we must disinfect said a voice get me a sulfur candle please the shell of the hive returned to its place a light was set in its sticky emptiness tier by tear the figures built it up closed the entrance and went away the swarm watched the light leaking through the cracks all the long night at dawn one wax moth came by fluttering impedantly there has been a miscalculation about the new day my dears she began one can't expect people to be perfect all at once that was our mistake no the mistake was entirely ours pardon me said the wax moth when you think of the enormous upheaval call it good or bad which our influence brought about you will admit that we and we alone you said the princess our stock was not strong so you came as any other disease might have come hang close all my people when the sun rose veiled figures came down and saw their swarm at the bow's end waiting patiently within

gusty winter night i stood in the lower stages of one of the gpo outward male towers my purpose was around to quebec in quote postal packet 162 or such other as may be appointed end quote and the post master general himself counter-signed the order this talisman opened all doors even those in the dispatching casing at the foot of the tower where they were delivering the sorted continental mail the bugs lay packed clothes as herrings in the long grey underbodies which are gpo still calls coaches five such coaches were filled as i watched and were shot up the guides to be locked on to their waiting packets 300 feet nearer the stars from the dispatching casing i was conducted by a coaches and wonderfully learned official mr l geary second dispatcher of the western route to the captain's room this wakes an echo of old romance where the male captains come on for their turn of duty he introduces me to the captain of 162 captain cornell and his relief cotton hudson the one is small and dark the other large and red but each has the brooding sheathed glance characteristic of eagles and aeronauts you can see it in the pictures of our racing professionals from lv roach to little ada worley that fathomless obstruction of eyes habitually turned through naked space and the knot is bird in the captain's room the pulsing arrows of some 20 indicators register degree by geographical degree the progress of as many homewood-bound packets the word cape rises across the face of a dial a gun strikes the south african mid-weekly mail is in at the high gate receiving towers that is all it reminds one comically of the treacherous little bell which in pigeon fancies lofts notifies the return of a homer time for us to be on the move says captain porno and we are shot up by the passenger lift to the top of the dispatch towers our coach will lock on when it is filled and the clerks are bored number 162 waits for us in sleep e of the topmost stage the great curve of her back shines frostly under the lights and some minute alteration and trim makes her rock a little in her holding down slips captain pernal frowns and dives inside hissing softly 162 comes to rest as level as a rule from her north atlantic winter nose cap worn bright as diamond with boring through uncounted leagues of hail snow and eyes to the inside of her three built-out propeller shafts is some 240 feet her extreme diameter carried well forward is 37. contrast this with a 900x95 of any crack liner and you will realize the power that must drive a hull through all weathers at more than the emergency speed of the cyclonic the eye detects no joint in her skin plating save the sweeping hair crack of the bow rudder magnex rather that assured us the dominion of the unstable air and left its inventor penniless and half blind it is calculated to castelli's gull wing curve raise a few feet of that all but invisible plate 3 8 of an inch and she will your 5 miles to port or starboard or she is under control again give her full helm and she returns on her track like a whiplash can't the hole forward attach on the wheel will suffice and she sweeps at your good direction upward down open the complete circle and she presents to the air a mushroom head that will bring her up all standing within a half mile yes says captain hudson answering my thought castelli thought he discovered the secret of controlling airplanes when he'd only found out how to steer the irrigable balloons maniac invented his rudder to help warboats ram each other and war went out of fashion and manic he went out of his mind because he said he couldn't serve his country anymore i wonder if any of us ever know what we're really doing if you want to see the coach locked you'd better go aboard it's due now says mr geary i enter through the door amidships there is nothing here for display the inner skin of the gas tanks comes down to within a foot or two of my head and turns over just short of the turn of the bilges liners and yachts disguise their tongues with decoration but the gpo serves them raw under a lick of grey official paint the inner skin shuts off 50 feet of the bow and as much of the stern but the bow bulkhead is recessed for the lift shunting apparatus as the stern is pierced for the shaft tunnels the engine room lies almost emits ships forward of it extending to the turn of the bar tanks is an aperture a bottomless hatch at present into which our coach will be locked one looks down over the coming's 300 feet to the dispatching cave when his voices boom upward the light below is obscured to a sound of thunder as our coach rises on its guides it enlarges rapidly from a postage stamp to a playing card to a pond and lust a pontoon the two clarks its crew do not even look up as it comes into place the quebec letters fly under their fingers and leap into the ducati tracks while both captains and mr geary satisfy themselves that the coach is locked home a clerk passes the way bill over the hatch combing captain porno thump marks and passes it to mr geary receipt has been given and taken pleasant run says mr geary and disappears through the door which a foot high pneumatic compressor locks after him ah sides the compressor released are holding down clips part with a tongue we are clear captain hudson opens the great colloid underbody porthole through which i watch overlighted london slide eastward as the gale gets hold of us the first of the low winter clouds cuts off the well-known view and darkens middlesex on the south edge of it i can see a postal packet's light plowing through the white fleece for an instant she gleams like a star as she drops toward the high gate receiving towers the bombay male says captain hudson and looks at his watch she's 40 minutes late what's our level i ask four thousand aren't you coming up on the bridge the bridge let us ever praise the gpo as a repository of ancientist tradition is represented by a view of captain hudson legs where he stands on the control platform that runs thor ships overhead the bow colloid is unshuttered and captain porno one hand on the wheel is filling for a first land the dial shows 4 300 feet it's steep tonight it matters as tear on tear of cloud drops under we generally pick up an easterly draught below 3000 at this time of year i hate slathering through fluff so does van katzen look at him hunting for a slunt says captain hudson a fog light breaks cloud a hundred fathoms below the antwerp night male makes her signal and rises between two racing clouds far to port her flung's blood red in the glare of sheerness double light the gale will have us over the north sea in half an hour but captain porno lets her go composedly nosing to every point of the compass as she rises five thousand six six thousand eight hundred the deep dial reads and we find the easterly drift heralded by a flurry of snow at the thousand fathom level captain pernal rings up the engines and keys down the governor on the switch before him there is no sense in urging machinery when aeolus himself gives you good knots for nothing we are away in earnest now our nose notched home on our chosen star at this level the lower clouds are laid out all neatly combed by the dry fingers of the east below that again is the strong westerly blow through which we rose overhead a film of southerly drifting mist draws a theatrical gauze across the firmament the moonlight turns the lower strated to silver without a stain except where our shadow underruns us bristol and cardiff double lights those stately inclined beams of our severn mouth are dead ahead of us for we keep the southern winter route coventry central the pivot of the english system steps upward once in 10 seconds its spear of diamond light to the north and the point or two of our starboard bow the leak the great cloud breaker of saint david's head swings its unmistakable green beam 25 degrees each way there must be half a mile of fluff over it in this weather but it does not affect the leak our planets over light it if anything says captain powell at the wheel as cardiff bristol slides under i remember the old days of common white verticals that it would show two or three hundred feet up in a mist if you knew where to look for them in really fluffy weather they might as well have been under your hut one could get lost coming home then and have some fun now it's like driving down piccadilly he points to the pillars of light where the cloud breakers bore through the cloud floor we see nothing of england's outlines only a white pavement pairs in all directions by these manholes of a variously coloured fire holy islands white and red saint b is interrupted white and so on as far as the eye can reach blessed be sergeant aarons and the gibuwa brothers who invented the cloud breakers of the world whereby we travel in security are you going to lift for the shamrock asks captain hudson cork light green fixed enlarges as we rush to it captain purnell nods there is heavy traffic here about the cloud bank beneath us is strict with running features of flame where the atlantic boats are hurrying londonward just clear of the fluff male packets are supposed under the conference rules to have the 5 000 foot lanes to themselves but the foreigner in a hurry is up to take liberties with english air number 162 lifts to a long drawn whale of the breeze in the fourth flange of the rudder and we make valencia white green white at a safe 7000 feet dipping our beam to an incoming washington packet there is no cloud on the atlantic and faint streaks of cream around dingle bay show where the driven seas hammer the coast a big sata liner society anna neem the transporter is diving and lifting half a mile below us in search of some break in the solid west wind lower still lies a disabled dane she is telling the liner all about it in international our general communication dial has got her talk and begins to eavesdrop captain hudson makes a motion to shut it off but checks himself perhaps you'd like to listen he says our goal of saint thomas the dane whimpers report owners three starboard shaft collar bearings fused can make floors as we are but impossible further shall we buy spurs at fayal the liner acknowledges and recommends inverting the bearings the argol answers that she has already done so without effect and begins to relieve her mind about cheap german enamels for color bearings the frenchman ascends cordially cries cohaj monami and switches off their lights sink under the curve of the ocean that's one of lund and blemish boats says captain hudson serves them right for putting german compost in their thrust blocks she won't be in failed tonight by the way wouldn't you like to look around the engine room i have been waiting eagerly for this invitation and i follow captain hudson from the control platform stooping load to avoid the bulge of the tanks we know that fury's gas can lift anything as the world famous trials of 89 showed but its almost indefinite powers of expansion necessitate vast tank room even in this thin air the lift shunts are busy taking out one third of its normal lift and still 162 must be checked by an occasional down draw of the rudder or our flight would become a climb to the stars captain pernal prefers and overlifted to an under lifted ship but no two captains stream sheep alike when i take the bridge says captain hodson you'll see me shunt forty percent of the lift out of the gas and run her on the upper rudder with the swoop upward instead of a swoop downward as you say either way will do it's only habit watch your tip dial tim fetches sedan once every 30 knots as regularly as breathing so is it shown on the dip dial for five or six minutes the arrow creeps from 6 700 to 7300 there is the faint g of the rudder and backslides the arrow to 6000 on a falling slant of 10 or 15 knots in heavy weather you joking here with a screws as well says captain hudson and unslipping the jointed bar which divides the engine room from the bird deck he leads me on to the floor here we find flurry's paradox of the bulk-headed vacuum which we accept now without thought literally in full blast the three engines are hd and t assisted vacuum of flurry turbines running from 3000 to the limit that is to say up to the point when the blades make the air bell cut out a vacuum for themselves precisely as overdriven marine propellers used to do 162's limit is low on account of the small size of your nine screws which though handier than the old colloid thousands bells sooner the midship's engine generally used as a reinforce is not running so the port and starboard turbine vacuum chambers draw direct into the return mains the turbines whistle reflectively from the low arch expansion tanks on either side the valves descend pillar-wise to the turbine chests and thence the obedient gas whirls through the spirals of blades with a force that would whip the teeth out of a power saw behind is its own pressure held in leash were spurred on by the lift shunts before it the vacuum were flurries ray dances in violet green bands and world turbulence of flame the jointed youtubes of the vacuum chamber are pressure-tempered colloid no glass would endure the strain for an instant and the junior engineer with tinted spectacles watches the ray intently it is the very heart of the machine a mystery to this day even fleury who begot it and unlike manik died a multi-millionaire could not explain how the restless little imp shuddering in the you tube can in the fractional fraction of a second strike the furious blast of gas into a chill greyish green liquid that drains you can hear it trickle from the far end of the vacuum through the adduction pipes and the mains back to the bilges here it returns to its gases one had almost written sagashus state and climbs to work afresh bilge tank upper tank dorsal tank expansion chamber vacuum main return as a liquid and bilge tank once more is the ordained cycle flurries ray sees to that and the engineer with the tinted spectacles cease to flurries ray if a speck of oil if even the natural grease of the human finger touched the hooded terminals fleury's rey will wink and disappear and must be laboriously built up again this means half a day's work for all hands and an expense of 170 odd pounds to the gpo for radium salts and such trifles now look at our thrust collars you won't find much german campbell there full jeweled you see says captain hudson as the engineer shunts open the top of a cup our shaft bearings are cmc commercial minerals company stones ground with as much care as the lens of a telescope they cost 37 pounds apiece so far we have not arrived at their term of life these bearings came from number 97 which took them over from the old dominion of light which had them out of the wreck of the persian aeroplane in the years when men still flew wooden kites over oil engines they are a shining reproof to all low-grade german ruby enamels so-called word facings and the dangerous and unsatisfactory alumina compounds which please dividend hunting owners and turn skippers crazy the rudder gear and the gas lift shunt seated side by side under the engine room dials are the only machines in visible motion the former size from time to time as the oil plunger rises and falls half an inch the ladder cased and guarded like the youtube aft exhibits another flurry ray but inverted and more green than violet its function is to shunt the lift out of the gas and this it will do without watching that is all a tiny pump rod wheezing and whining to itself beside the sputtering green lamp 150 feet aft down the flat-topped tunnel of the tongues a violet light restless and irresolute between the two three white painted turbine trunks like eel baskets laid on their side accentuate the empty perspectives you can hear the trickle of the liquefied gas flowing from the vacuum into the bilge tanks and the soft clock glock of gas locks closing as captain pernal brings 162 down by the head the ham of the turbines and the boom of the air on our skin is no more than a cotton wool wrapping to the universal stillness and we are running an 18 second mile i peer from the far end of the engine room over the hatchcombings into the coach the male clerks are sorting the winnipeg calgary and medicine hut bags but there is a pack of cards ready on the table suddenly at bell thrills the engineers run to the turbine valves and stand by but the spectacled slave of the ray in the youtube never lifts his head he must watch where he is we are heartbreaked and going astern there is language from the control platform team's sparking badly about something says the unruffled cotton hudson let's look captain porno is not the suave man we left half in our sims but the embodied authority of the gpo ahead of us floats an ancient aluminum patched twin-screw trump of the dingest with no more right to the 5000 foot lane then has a horse cart to a modern road she carries an obsolete barbette cloning tower a six foot affair with rails platform forward and their warning beam plays on the top of it as the policeman's lantern flashes on the area sneak like a snake thief too emerges as shock-headed navigator in his shirt sleeves captain pernal ranges up in the colloid to talk with him man to man there are times when sinus does not satisfy what under the stars are you doing here you skyscraping chimney sweep he shouts as we two drift side by side do you know this is a male lane you call yourself a sailor sir you ain't fit to pedal toy balloons to an eskimo your name and number report and get down and be i've been blown up once the shock-headed man cries hoarsely as a dog barking i don't care two flips over contact for anything you can do posty don't you sir but i'll make you care i'll have you towed stern first to disco and broke up you can't recover insurance if you broke for obstruction do you understand that then the stranger bellows look at my propellers there's been a woolly water down below that has knocked us into umbrella frames we've been blown up about 40 000 feet we're all one conjurer's watch inside my mate's arms broke my engineers heads cut open my ray went out when the engine smashed and and for peter's sake give me my height captain we dad we're dropping 6800 can you hold it captain pernal overlooks all insults and leans half out of the colloid staring and snuffing the stranger leaks pringently we ought to blow into saint john's with luck we're trying to pluck the fortank now but she's simply whistling it away her captain wails she's sinking like a log says captain porno in an undertone call up the bank smart boat george our dip dial shows that we keeping abreast the trump have dropped 500 feet the last few minutes captain porno presses a switch and our signal beam begins to swing through the night twizzling spokes of light across infinity that'll fetch something he says while captain hudson watches the general communicator he has called up the north bank's mark boat a few hundred miles west and is reporting the case i'll stand by you captain panel roars to the lone figure on the conning tower is it as bad as that comes the answer she isn't insured she's mine might have guessed as much much as hudson owner's risk is the worst risk of all can i fetch saint john's not even with his breeze the voice quavers stand by to abandon ship haven't you any left in you for or aft nothing but the midship tongues and they're none too tight you see my rey gave out and he cuffs in the wreak of the escaping cast your poor devil this does not reach our friend what is the mark boat say george wants to know if there are any danger to traffic says she's in a bit of weather herself and can't quit station i've turned in a general call so even if they don't see our bim someone's bound to help or else we must shall i clear our slings hold on here we are a planet liner too she'll be up in a tick tell her to have her slings ready cries his brother captain there won't be much time to spare tie up your maid he roars to the trump my mate all right it's my engineer he's gone crazy shun the lift out of him with a spanner hurry but i can make saint john's if you'll stand by you'll make the deep wet atlantic in 20 minutes you're less than 5 800 now get your papers a planet liner eastbound heaves up in a superb spiral and takes the air of us humming her underbody colloid is open and her transporter slings hang down like tentacles we shut off our beam as she adjusts herself steering to her hair over the trump's conning tower the maid comes up his arms trapped to his side and stumbles into the cradle a man with a ghastly scarlet head follows shouting that he must go back and build up his ray the maid assures him that he will find a nice new ray already in the liner's engine room the bandaged head goes up walking excitedly a youth and a woman follow the liner cheers hollowly above us and we see the passengers faces at the saloon colloid that's a pretty girl what's the fool waiting for now says captain colonel the skipper comes up still appealing to us to stand by and see him fetch saint john's he dives below and returns at which we little human beings in the void cheer louder than ever with a sheep's kitten up fly the liner's hissing slings her underbody crushes home and she hurtles away again the dial shows less than 3000 feet the mark boat signals we must attend to the derelict now whistling her death song as she falls beneath us in long seek zigzags keep our beam on her and send out a general warning says captain porno following her down there is no need not a liner in there but knows the meaning of that vertical beam and gives us and our quarry a wide berth but she'll drown in the water won't she i ask not always is his answer i've known a derelict up end and sift her engines out of herself and flick around the lower lanes for three weeks on her forward stance only will run no risks teeth here george and look sharp there's weather ahead captain hodson opens the underbody colloid swings the heavy peething iron out of its rock which in liners is generally cased as a smoking room seti and at 200 feet releases the catch we hear the wear of the crescent-shaped arms opening as they descend the derelict's forehead is punched in start across and rent diagonally she falls stern first our beam upon her slides like a loved soul down that pitiless slaughter of light and the atlantic takes her i filthy business says hudson i wonder what it must have been like in the old days the thought had crossed my mind too what if that wavering carcass had been filled with the men of the old days each one of them taught that is the horror of it that after death he would very possibly go forever to unspeakable torment and scarcely generation ago we one knows now that we are only our fathers re-enlarged upon the earth we i say ripped and rammed and pieced to admiration here tim from the control platform shouts that we are to get into our inflators and to bring him his at once we hurry into the heavy rubber suits the engineers are already dressed and inflate at the air pump taps gpo inflators are thrice as thick as erasing man's flickers and chaff abominably under the armpits george takes the will until tim has blown himself up to the extreme of returnity if you kicked him off the cp to the deck he would bounce back but it is 162 that will do the kicking the mark boats mad star craving crazy is snort returning to command she says there's a bad blowout ahead and wants me to pull over to greenland i'll see her pieced first we wasted half an hour fussing over that dead duck down under and now i'm expected to go rubbing my back all around the pole what does she think a postal packet's made of gummed silk tell her we're coming on straight george george buckles him into the frame and switches on the direct control now under tim's left toe lies the port engine accelerator under his left heel the reverse and so with the other foot the lift shunt stops stand out on the rim of the steering wheel where the fingers of his left hand can play on them at his right hand is the midship's engine lever ready to be thrown into gear at a moment's notice he leans forward in his belt eyes glued to the colloid and one ear cocked toward the general communicator henceforth he is the strength and direction of 162 through whatever may be full the bank's mark boat is reeling out pages of abc directions to the traffic at large we are to secure all loose objects hood up our flurry rays and on no account to attempt to clear snow from our calling towers till the weather abates under powered craft we are told can ascend to the limit of their lift mail packets to look out for them accordingly the lower lanes westward are peeting very badly with frequent blowouts vortices laterals etc still the clear dark holds up unblemished the only warning is the electric skin tension i feel as though i wear a lacemaker's pillow and an irritability which the gibbering of the general communicator increases almost to hysteria we have made 8 000 feet since we peaked the trump and our turbines are giving us an honest 210 knots very far to the west an elongated blur of red low down shows us the north bank's mark boat there are specks of fire around her rising and falling bewildered planets around an unstable sun helpless shipping hanging under her light for company's sake no wonder she could not quit station she warns us to look out for the backwash of the bad vortex in which her beam shows it she is even now reeling the bits of gloom about us begin to fill with very faintly luminous films wreathing and uneasy shapes one forms itself into a globe of pale flame that waits shivering with eagerness till we sweep by it leaps monstrously across the blackness a lights on the precise tip of our nose pirouettes there an instant and swings off a roaring bow sings as though that light were led sings and recovers too large and stumble again beneath the next blowout tim's fingers on the left shunt strike chords of numbers 147 246 753 and so on for he is running by his tanks only lifting or lowering her against the uneasy air all three engines are at work for the sooner we have skated over this thin eyes the better higher we dare not go the whole upper vault is charged with pale krypton vapors which our skin friction may excite to unholy manifestations between the upper and lower levels five thousand and seven thousand hints the mark boat we may perhaps ball through if our bow clothes itself in blue flame and falls like a sword no human skill can keep pace with the changing tensions a vortex has us by the beak and we dive down a 2 000 food slant at an angle the deep dial in my bouncing body recorded of 35 our turbines scream shreely the propellers cannot bite on the thin air team shunts the lift out of five tanks at once and by sheer weight drives her bullet wise through the maelstrom till she cushions with a jar on an upcast 3000 feet below now we've done it says george in my ear our skin friction that last slide has played old harry with the tensions look out for lateral steam she'll want some holding i've got her is the answer come up old woman she comes up nobly but the laterals buffeted her left and right like the pinions of angry angels she is jolted off her cores four ways at once and cuffed into place again only to be swung aside and dropped into a new chaos we are never without a corpus and greening on our bows or rolling head over hills from nose to midships into the crackle of electricity around and within us is added once or twice the rattle of hail hail that will never fall on any sea slow we must or we may break our back pitch polling air is a perfectly elastic fluid rose george above the tumult about as elastic as a head sea off the fastnet ain't it he is less than just to the good element if one intrudes on the heavens when they are balancing their vault accounts if one disturbs the high god's market rates by hurling still hulls at 90 knots across tremblingly adjusted electric tensions one must not complain of any rudeness in the reception tim met it with an unmoved continent one corner of his under lip caught up on a tooth his eyes fleeting into the blackness 20 miles ahead and the fierce sparks flying from his knuckles at every turn of the hand now and again he shook his head to clear the sweat trickling from his eyebrows and it was then that george watching his chance would slide down the life rail and swap his face quickly with a big red handkerchief i never imagined that a human being could so continuously labor and so collectively think as did tim through that hell's half hour when the flurry was at its worst we were dragged hither and yawn by warm or frozen sanctions belched up on the tops of woolly was spun down by vortices and clubbed aside bilaterals under a dieseling rush of stars in the company of a drunken moon i heard the rushing click of the midship engine lever sliding in and out the low growl of the lift shunts and louder than the yelling winds without the scream of the bow rather gouging into any lull that promised hold for an instant at last we began to claw up on a bow rudder and port propeller together only the nicest balancing of tongues saved us from spinning like the rifle bullet of the old days we've got to hitch to inward of that mark boat somehow george cried there's no windward i protested fibly where i swung shackled to extension how can there be he laughed as we reached into a thousand foot blowout that red man laughed beneath his inflated hood look he said we must clear those refugees with a high lift the mark boat was below and a little to the southwest of us fluctuating in the center of her distraught galaxy the air was thick with moving lights at every level i take it most of them were trying to lie ahead to wind but not being hydras they failed another tanked mograbby boat had risen to the limit of her lift and finding no improvement had dropped a couple of thousand there she met a superb wuliwa and was blown up spinning like a dead leaf instead of shutting off she went a stern and naturally rebounded as from a wall almost into the mark boat whose language our gc took it in was humanly simple if they'd only ride it out quietly it would be better said george in a calm while we climbed like a butt above them all but some skippers will navigate without enough lift what does that studbot think she's doing tim playing kiss in the ring was tim's unmoved reply a trans-asiatic direct liner had found a smooth and buttered into it full power but there was a vortex at the tail of that smooth so the tad was flipped out like a pea from off a fingernail breaking madly as she fled down and all but overending now i hope she's satisfied said to tim i'm glad i'm not a mark boat do i want help the general communicator dial had caught his ear george you may tell that gentleman with my love love remember george that i do not want help who is the officious sardine teen erimowsky drugger on the lookout for a toe very kind of the rimowsky drugger this postal packet isn't being towed at present those joggers will go anywhere on a chance of salvage george explained we call them kitty wakes a long beaked bright still 90 footer floated at ease for one instant within hail of us her slings coiled ready for rescues and a single hand in her open tower he was smoking surrendered to the insurrection of the heirs through which he tore away he lay in absolute p i saw the smoke of his pipe ascend and troubled or his boat dropped it seemed like a stone in a well he had just cleared the mark boat and her disorderly neighbors when the storm ended as suddenly as it had begun a shooting star to northward filled the sky with a green blink of a meteorite dissipating itself in her atmosphere said george that may iron out all the tensions even as he spoke the conflicting winds came to rest the levels filled the laterals died out in long easy swells the airways were smoothed before us in less than three minutes the cave around the markboard had shipped their power lights and weird away upon their businesses what's happened i gasped the nerve storm within and the vault tingle without had passed my inflators weighed like lead god he knows said captain george soberly that old shooting star's skin friction has discharged the different levels i've seen it happen before whew what a relief we dropped from 10 to 6 000 and got rid of our clammy suits tim shut off and stepped out of the frame the mark boat was coming up behind us he opened the colloid in that heavenly stillness and mopped his face hello williams he cried a degree or two out of station ain't you maybe was the answer from the mark boat i've had some company this evening so i noticed wasn't that quite a little draft i warned you why didn't you pull out north the eastbound packets have me not till i'm running a polar consumptive sanatorium boat i was squinting through a colloid before you were out of your cradle my son i'd be the last man to deny it the captain of the markbot replied softly the way you handled her just now i'm a pretty fair judge of traffic in a vault hurry there was a thousand revolutions beyond anything even i've ever seen tim's back samples visibly to this oiling captain george on the cp wings and points to the portrait of a singularly attractive maiden pinned up on tim's telescope bracket above the steering wheel i see wholly and entirely do i see there is some talk overhead of coming round to tea on friday a brief report of the derelict's fate and sim volunteers as he descends for an abc man young williams is less of a high tension fool than some were you thinking of taking her on george then i'll just have a look around that poor thrust seems to me it's a trifle worm and will jog along the mark boat hums off joyously and hangs herself up in her appointed airy here she will stay a shutterless observatory a live boat station a salvage tag a court of ultimate appeal come meteorological bureau for 300 miles in all directions till wednesday next when her relief slides across the stars to take her buffeted place her black hull double conning tower and ever ready slings represent all that remains to the planet of that old old word authority she is responsible only to the aerial board of control the abc of which teams speak so flippantly but that semi-elected semi-nominated body of a few score of persons of both sexes controls this planet transportation is civilization our motto runs theoretically we do what we please so long as we do not interfere with the traffic and all it implies practically the abc confirms or annuls all international arrangements and to judge from its last report finds our tolerant humorous lazy little planet only too ready to shift the whole burden of public administration on its shoulders i discussed this with team sipping mate on the cp while george fans here along over the white blur of the banks in beautiful upward curves of 50 miles each the deep dial translates them on the tape in flowing freehand team gathers up a skein of it and surveys the last few feet which record 162's path through the vault flurry i haven't had a favorite chart like this to show up in five years he says ruefully a postal packets dip dial records every yard of every run the tapes then go to the abc which collates and makes composite photographs of them for the instruction of captains team studies his irrevocable past shaking his head hello here is a 1500 foot drop at 55 degrees we must have been standing on our heads then george you don't say so george answers i fancied i noticed it at the time george may not have captain pernal's cut-like swiftness but he is all an artist to the tips of the broad fingers that play on the shunt stops the delicious flight curves come away on the tape with never a waiver the mark boat's vertical spindle of light lies down to eastward setting in the face of the following stars westward where no planet should rise the triple verticals of trinity bay we keep still to the southern route make a low lifting haze we seem the only thing at rest under all the heavens floating at ease till the earth's revolution shall turn up our landing towers and minute by minute our silent clock gives us a 16 second mile some fine night says tim will be even with that clock's master he's coming now says george over his shoulder i'm chasing the night west the stars ahead deemed no more than if a film of mist had been drawn under unobserved but the deep air boom on our skin changes to a joyful shout the dawn gust says tim it'll go on to meet the sun look look there is a dark being crammed back over our boughs come to the after colloid i'll show you something the engine room is hot and stuffy the clarks and the coach are asleep and the slave of the rave is ready to follow them team slides up on the aft colloid and reveals the curve of the world the ocean's deepest purple edged with fuming and intolerable gold then the sun rises and through the colloids strikes out her lumps tim's cowls in his face squirrels in a cage he mutters that's all we are squirrels in a cage he's going twice as fast as us just you wait a few years my shining friend and we'll take steps that will amaze you will joshua you yes that is our dream to turn all earth into the veil of agelon at our pleasure so far we can drag out the dawn to twice its normal length in these latitudes but someday even on the equator we shall hold the sun level in his full stride now we look down in a sea thronged with heavy traffic a big submersible breaks water suddenly another and another follows with a swash and a suck and a savage bubbling of relieved pressures the deep sea freighters are rising to lung up after the long night and the lusurely ocean is all patterned with peacock's eyes of foam we'll lung up too says team and when we return to the cp george shuts off the colloids are opened and the fresh air sweeps her out there is no hurry the old contracts they will be revised at the end of the year allow 12 hours for a run which any packet can put behind her in 10 so we breakfast in the arms of an easterly slant which pushes us along at a language 20 to enjoy life and tobacco begin both on a sunny morning half a mile or so above the double atlantic cloud belt and after the vault flurry which has cleared and tempered your nerves while we discuss the thickening traffic with the superiority that comes of having a high level reserved to ourselves we heard and i for the first time the morning him on a hospital boat she was cloaked by a skein of ruffled fluff beneath us and we caught the chant before she rose into the sunlight o ye winds of god sung the unseen voices bless he the lord praise him and magnify him forever we slid off our cups and joined in when our shadow fell across her great open platforms they looked up and stretched out their hands neighborly while they sang we could see the doctors and the nurses in the white button-like faces of the cod patients she passes slowly beneath us heading northward her hull wet with the dews of the night all ablaze in the sunshine so took she the shadow of a cloud and vanished her song continuing o ye holy and humble men of heart bless ye the lord praise him and magnify him forever she is a public lunger or she wouldn't have been singing the benedictine and she's a greenlander or she wouldn't have snow blinds over her colloids said george at last she'll be bound for frederick chaven or one of the glacier sanatoriums for a month if she was an accident ward she'd be hung up at the 8 000 foot level yes consumptives funny how the new things are the old things i've read in books team answered that savages used to haul their sick and wounded up to the tops of hills because microbes were fewer there we hoist them into sterilized air for a while same idea how much do the doctors say we've added to the average life of a man 30 years says george with a twinkle in his eye are we going to spend them all up here team plop ahead then flop ahead who's hindering the senior captain laughed as we went in we held a good lift to clear the coast wise and continental shipping and we had need of it though our route is in no sense a populated one there is a steady trinkle of traffic this way along we met hudson bay furriers out of the great preserve hurrying to make their departure from bonavista with sable and black fox for the insatiable markets we overcrossed kiwatin liners small and crammed but their captains who see no land between trepassi and blanco know what gold they bring back from west africa trans-asiatic directs we met soberly ringing the world around the 50th meridian at an honest 70 knots and white patent acroid and hunt fruiters out of the south fled beneath us their ventilated hulls whistling like chinese kites their market is in the north among the northern sanatoria where you can smell their grapefruit and bananas across the cold snows argentine beef boats recite it too of enormous capacity and unlovely outline they too feed the northern health stations in icebound ports where submersibles dare not rise yellow-bellied oar flats and ungather petrol tanks punted down leisurely out of the north like strings of unfrightened wild duck it does not pay to fly minerals and oil a mile further than is necessary but the risks of trans shipping to submersibles in the ice back of nane or hebron are so great that these heavy freighters fly down to halifax direct and send the air as they go they are the biggest tramps aloft except the athabasca grain tubs but these last now that the wheat is moved are busy over the world's shoulder timber lifting in siberia we held to the saint lawrence it is astonishing how the old waterways still pull us children of the air and followed his broad line of black between its drifting ice blocks all down the park that the wisdom of our fathers but everyone knows the quebec run we dropped to the heights receiving towers 20 minutes ahead of time and there hung at ease till the oklahoma intermediate pocket could pull out and give us our proper sleep it was curious to watch the action of the holding down clips all along the frosty river front as the boats cleared or came to rest a big hamburger was living ponte vice and her crew and shipping the platform railings began to sink elsinore the oldest of our chunties you know it of course mother rogenstein has on the baltic forty couple waltzing on the floor and you can watch my ray for i must go away and dance with the la suena del sinor then while they sweated home the covering plates nor nor nor nor west from surabaya to the baltic nineteen not an hour to the skull mother against the house on the bald tick and to dance with ella's wayne at elsinore the clips parted with a gesture of indignant dismissal as though quebec glittering under her snows were casting out this light and unworthy lovers our signal came from the heights team turned and floated up but surely then it was with passionate appeal that the great tower arms flung open or did i think so because on the upper staging a little hooded figure also opened her arms wide toward her father in 10 seconds the coach with its clarks clashed down to the receiving casing the holsters displaced the engineers at the idle turbines and team prouder of this than all introduced me to the maiden of the photograph on the shelf and by the way said he to her stepping forth in sunshine under the heart of civil life i saw young williams in the mark boat

weather so far shows no sign of improvement from all quarters camp complains of the unusual prevalence of sleet at the higher levels racing planes and digs alike have suffered severely the former from unequal deposits of half-frozen slush on their bands and only those who have held up a badly balanced plane in a cross-wind know what that means and the latter from loaded boughs and snow-cased bodies as a consequence the northern and north-western upper levels have been practically abundant and the high flyers have returned to the ignoble security of the three five and six hundred foot levels but there remains a few undaunted sun hunters who in spite of frozen stays and ice jumped connecting rods still haunt the blue and purien bad boat racing the scandals of the past few years have at last moved the yachting world to concerted action in regard to the bad boat racing we have been treated to the spectacle of what are practically killed racing planes driven a clear five foot or more above the water and only eased down to touch their so-called native element as they near the line judges and starters have been conveniently blind to this absurdity but the public demonstration of saint catherine's light at the autumn regattas has borne ample if tardy fruit in the future the bad is to be abode and the long and heated demand of the true sportsman for no daylight under meat kill in smooth water is in a fair way to be conceded the new rule severely restricts plane area and lift alike the gas compartments are permitted both for and aft as in the old type but the water ballast central tank is rendered obligatory these things work if not for perfection at least for the evolution of a sane and wholesome waterborne cruiser the type of rudder is unaffected by the new rules so we may expect to see the long davidson make the patent and which has expired come largely into use hands forward though the strain on the stern post in turning at speeds over 40 miles an hour is admittedly very severe but bad boat racing has a great future before it creed and the abc the story of the recent cretan crisis as told in the abc monthly report is not without humor till the 25th of october creed as all our planet knows was the sole surviving european repository of autonomous institutions local self-government and the rest of the archaic lumber devised in the past for the confusion of human affairs she has lived practically on the tourist traffic attracted by her annual pageants of parliaments boards municipal councils etc etc last summer the islanders grew wearied as their premiere explained of playing at being savages for pennies and proceeded to pull down all the landing towers on the island and shut off general communication till such time as the abc should annex them for site-splitting comedy we would refer our readers to the correspondence between the board of control and the cretan premier during the war however all's well that ends well the abc have taken over the administration of crete on normal lines and tourists must go elsewhere to witness the debates resolutions and popular movements of the old days the only people to suffer will be the

editor only last week while crossing the equator west 2615 i became aware of a furious and irregular cannonading some 15 or 20 knots south for east descending to the 500 feet level i found a party of transylvanian tourists engaged in exploding scores of the largest pattern atmospheric bombs abc standard and in the intervals of their pleasing laborers firing bow and stern smoke ring swivels this orgy i can give it another name went on for at least two hours and naturally produced violent electric derangements my compasses of course were thrown out my bow was struck twice and i received two risk shocks from the lower platform rail on remonstrating i was told that these professors were engaged in scientific experiments the extent of their scientific knowledge may be judged by the fact that they expected to produce i give their own words a little blue sky if they went on long enough this in the heart of the doldrums at 450 feet i have no objection to any amount of blue sky in its proper place it can be found at the 4000 level for practically 12 months out of the year but i submit with all deference to the educational needs of transylvania that skylarking in the center of a main travelled road where at the best of times electricity literally drips off one's tensions and screw blades is unnecessary when my friends had finished the road was seared and blown and pitted with

lavalle reviewed by renee long a cool aeronautic paris ten years ago laval that imperturbable dreamer of the heavens as lazarus hailed him gathered together the fruits of a lifetime's labor and gave it with well-justified contempt to a world-bound hand in food to borrowed theory of vertices and compensating electric nodes they shall see he wrote in that immortal postscript to the heart of the cyclone the laws whose existence they derided written in fire beneath them but even here he continues there is no finality better a thousand times my conclusion should be discredited than that my dead name should lie across the threshold of the temple of science a bar to further inquiry so died laval a prince of the powers of the air and even at his funeral sailor jested him who had gone to discover the secrets of the aurora borealis if i choose thus to be banal it is only to remind you that celia's theories are today as exploded as the ludicrous deductions of the spanish school in the place of their fugitive and warring dreams we have definitely laval's law of the cyclone which he surprised in darkness and called at the foot of the overarching throne of the aurora borealis it is there that i intend on my own investigations have passed and re-passed the hundred times the worn leo leonine face white as the snow beneath him furrowed with wrinkles like the seams and gushes upon the north cape the nervous hand integrally a part of the mechanism of his flighter and above all the wonderful lumbened eyes turned to the zenith master i would cry as i moved respectfully beneath him what is it you seek today and always the answer clear and without doubt from above the old secret my son the immense egotism of youth forced me on my own path but cry of the human always had i known if i had known i would many times have bartered my poor laurels for the privilege such as tinsley and herrera possess of having aided him in his monumental researches it is to the filial piety of victor laval that we owe the two volumes consecrated to the grand life of his father so full of the holy intimacies of the domestic hearth once returned from the abysms of the utter north to the little house upon the outskirts of mudan it was not the philosopher the daring observer the man of iron energy that imposed himself on his family but a fat and even plaintiff jester i for sure incarnate and kindly the co-equal of his children and it must be written not seldom the comic despair of madame laval who as she writes five years after the marriage to her vulnerable mother found in this unequaled intellect whose name i bear the abandon of a large and very untidy boy here is her letter xavier returned from i do not know where at midnight absorbed in calculations on the eternal question of his aurora la belle aurora whom i begin to hate instead of anchoring i had set out the guidelight above our roof so he had butts to descend and fasten the plane he wandered profoundly distracted above the town with his anchor down figure to yourself dear mother it is the roof of the mayor's house that the grapnel first engages that i do not regret for the mayor's wife and i are not sympathetic but when xavier operates my pet arrow carrier and birds it across the garden into the conservatory i protest at the top of my voice little victory in his night clothes runs to the window enormously amused at the parabolic flight without reason for it is too dark to see the grupnel of my prized tree the mayor of mutin thunders at our door in the name of the law demanding i suppose my husband's head here is a conversation through the megaphone xavier is 200 feet above us mr laval descend and make preparation for outrage of domicile descend monsieur levar no one answers xavier lavalle in the name of the law descend and submit to process for outrage of domicile xavier arrives from his calculations comprehending only the last words outrage of domicile my dear mayor who is the man that has corrupted thy julie the mayor furious xavier of all xavier interrupting i have not that felicity i am only a dealer in cyclones my faith he raised one then all mutant attended in the streets and my xavier after a long time comprehending what he had done excused himself in a thousand apologies at last the reconciliation was affected in her house over a supper at two in the morning julie in a wonderful costume of compromises and i have her and the mayor pacified in bed in the blue room and on the next day while the mayor rebuilds his roof her xavier departs on you for the aurora borealis there to commence his life's work monsieur victor lavalle tells us of that historic collision and plan on the flunk of heckler between herrera then the pillar of the spanish school and the man destined to confuse his theories and lead him intellectually captive even through the years the immense life of laval as he sustains the spaniard's direct plane and cries courage i shall not fall till i have found truth and i hold you fast rings like the call of trumpets this is that laval whom the world immersed in speculations of immediate gain did not know nor suspect the laval whom they are judged to the last a patent and a theorist the human as apart from the scientific side developed in his own volumes of his epoch making discoveries is marked with a simplicity clarity and good sense beyond praise i would specially refer such as doubt the sustaining influence of ancestral faith upon character and will to the 11th and 19th chapters in which are contained the opening and consummation of the telorionical records extending over nine years of their tremendous significance be sure that the modist house at mutin knew as little as that the records would one day be the planet's standard in all official meteorology it was enough for them that their xavier this son this father this husband ascended periodically to commune with powers it might be angelic beyond their comprehension and that they united daily in prayers for his safety pray for me he says upon the eve of each of his excursions and returning with an equal simplicity he renders thanks after supper in the little room where he kept his barometers to the last laval was a catholic of the old school accepting he who had looked into the very heart of the lightnings the dogmas of papal infallibility of absolution of confession of relics great and small marvelous enviable contradiction the completion of the telerionical records close to what laval himself was pleased to call the theoretical side of his labors laborers from which the youngest and least impressionable planeur might well have shrunk he had traced through cold and heat across the dips of the oceans with instruments of his own invention over the inhospitable heart of the polar ice and the sterile visage of the desert league by league patiently and weariedly remorselessly from their ever-shifting cradle under the magnetic pole to their exalted deathbed in the utmost ether of the upper atmosphere each one of the isoconic tellurians laval's curves as we call them today he had disentangled the nodes of their intersections assigning to each its regulated period of flux and reflux thus equipped he summons herrera tinsley his pupils to the final demonstration as calmly as though he were ordering his flighters for some midday journey to mercedes i have proved my thesis he writes it remains now only that you should witness the proof we go to manila tomorrow a cyclone will form of the pescadores south 17 east in four days and will reach its maximum intensity 27 hours after inception it is there i will show you the truth a letter heretofore and published from herrera to madame laval tells us how the masters prophecy was verified i will not destroy its simplicity or its significance by any attempt to quote note well though that herrera's preoccupation throughout that day and night of superhuman strain is always for the master's bodily health and comfort such a time he writes i forced the master to take the broth or i made him put on the fur coat as you told me norris tinsley see pages 184 85 less concerned he prepares the nourishment he cooks eternally imperturbably suspended in the chaos of which the master interprets the meaning tinsley bowed down with the laurels of both hemispheres raises himself to get nobler heights in his capacity of a devoted chef it is almost unbelievable and yet men right of the master is called aloof self-contained such characters do not elicit the joyous and unswerving devotion which laval commanded throughout life truly we have changed very little in the course of the ages the secrets of earth and sky and the links that bind them we felicitate ourselves we are on the road to discover but our neighbor's heart and mind we misread we misjudge we condemn now as ever let all then who love a man read these most human tender and wise volumes end of section

txFL2R2CN3I | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=txFL2R2CN3I | East Kent Road Car Company | Wikipedia audio article | the East Kent Road car Company Limited was a bus company formed in 1916 and based in Canterbury Kent the company operated bus and coach services in Kent in 1993 it was one of the first companies to be acquired by the stagecoach group which eventually rebranded the operation as stagecoach in East Kent and made it part of the stagecoach southeast bus division East Kent serves the area after which it was named and at one time also served part of East Sussex operations in Rye and Hastings passing to Maidstone and district motor services in return for that company's Ashford interests since acquisition by the stagecoach group the company has made some radical alterations to its traditional route network linking some services in to long-distance circulars topic history topic formation East Kent Road car Company Limited was officially formed on the 11th of August 1916 it was an amalgamation of deal and district motor services waha & Co Herne Bay Margate Canterbury and district Ramsgate motor coaches and folks tannin district the new company began trading on the 1st of September 1916 from 1928 the Southern Railway became a significant 49% shareholder in the company from 1929 an arrangement was made with the British post office where letter boxes would be installed on some vehicles moving into the 1930s saw the takeovers of the tramways of Dover and Thanet with the trams being quickly replaced with motor buses during the Second World War East Kent vehicles were regular targets for enemy aircraft and their long range guns from across the channel on the French coast before the fall of France to try to combat this the cream-colored roofs of the buses were repainted grey to help make them less visible the company experienced many vehicle losses during this time especially at Dover where the garage suffered a direct hit in 1942 killing several staff lots of the vehicles had been lent out or contracted away some stationed in the Midlands and this coupled with those ridden off enemy action led to severe shortages this was alleviated somewhat with the delivery of ten guy Arabs with utility Park Royal bodywork topic post-war after the war orders were placed 450 Leyland Tiger ps1 coaches and 60 Denis Landsat single-decker service buses these arrived between 1946 and 1949 in September 1946 East Kent ordered 50 Leyland Thailand PD winners with Leyland bodywork these were delivered in 1947 and 1948 East Kent was one of many operators to use rebodied buses as a way to extend their service life pre-war Leyland Titans went to ECW for this treatment whilst 28 Leyland Titan TD 5s were rebuilt as coaches by beetle at Dartford the company began to standardize on guy Arabs for double-decker buses in AEC Reliance's for single Decker's and coaches although Dennis's and Leyland's were also acquired in the mid-1950s two of the company's bus stations were rebuilt Folkston and Canterbury both surviving today in refurbished form in the late 1950s East Kent launched its first open top bus service with conversion of some of the wartime guys painted in the reverse cream and red livery they operated out of fan at garage later Herne Bay Dover and Folkston also operated open top vehicles around this time the first AEC Regent visa arrived these were delivered to Fannett and were bodied by park royal to a full front front entrance design and arrived in 1959 later AEC Regents reverted to the half cab layer but all were bodied by Park Royal and many would survive into the late 1970s and early 1980s AEC also became the main supplier of single deck buses and coaches to with batches of bett style bodied AEC Reliance's entering the fleet as well as Park Royal plaque stone and double bodied coaches topic national bus company East Kent was taken over by the national bus company on the 1st of January 1969 during this time the company's first rear engine double-deckers arrived these were twenty Dame la fleet lines with Park Royal bodywork fourth an at garage these were also the company's first oma one man operated double deckers later on some AEC Regents were also converted to Omo to reduce the cost of having to crew on each bus but these tended to be used only at peak hours in 1971 the last buses were delivered in the traditional Marone and cream livery these were 1280 C Swift's with Alexander bodywork Leyland nationals started to enter the fleet in the 1970s bringing with them the national bus company standard livery of poppy red and white in the mid-1970s the Bristol VRT entered the fleet the first batch having 14-6 ECW bodywork later batches had rare willow brick bodies before the final batch reverted to the standard 13 feet eight inches ECW body by that time the NBC standard vehicle these cleared the last of the AEC regions from normal passenger service in the early 1980s although some had a swan song on the park-and-ride for the open golf and sandwich whilst others were used on contracts and for driver training topic deregulation on Sunday the 26th of October 1986 all the bus companies were deregulated East Kent Management entered into negotiations with the NBC sales team in October 1986 and following some hot competition from a French bidder the company was sold to the management team on the 5th of March 1987 the NBC double arrow was quickly removed from the vehicles to be replaced by a red ek in a white box a new livery was introduced of cherry red and cream but it would take several years to completely remove all the NBC livery mini buses had entered the fleet in a big way - in bold yellow mini link livery these vehicles were used to boost ailing passenger numbers by serving estates not accessible to larger vehicles and offering a better frequency of service also to help cover a new route network introduced twelve Leyland Atlanteans from northern general arrived these were later replaced by more Atlanteans from Greater Manchester Transport the company's first new double deckers for nearly seven years arrived in the form of ten MCW Metro buses meanwhile two new MCW Highliner coaches were purchased for the coaching fleet more Metro buses arrived the following year some fitted with coach seating later when MCW ceased production the company turned once again to Leyland for new buses these being Olympians with northern counties bodywork 1991 saw East Kent celebrate 75 years of service and MCW Metro bus 7750 five East 7:55 UK R was repainted in the traditional livery in the summer of 1993 the management sold out to a bid from the Perth based transport group stagecoach group the coaching side of the business was soon sold off by stagecoach as were two garages and part of Westwood Thanet garage for redevelopment the then standard stagecoach livery began to creep into East Kent eventually the maroon and creme was replaced by the original stagecoach corporate colours of white with orange red and blue stripes despite this stagecoach invested heavily in new vehicles and upgrading routes East Kent also gained the contract for operating the Canterbury park-and-ride around this time a service they still operated until late 2008 when they lost it to kent top travel who operated it until the summer of 2013 when it was regained by East Kent during 2002 Canterbury bus station was given a makeover and in 2004 Folkston bus station was also refurbished low-floor buses on branded routes have become a big part of stagecoaches business plans it has also introduced a new livery and the company now trades a stagecoach in East Kent although the legal lettering remains unchanged today routes such as the loop the diamond the triangle the link the stars in the heart operate in every major town in the area with low floor easy access buses the old East can habit of referring to the buses as cars still survives topics see also list of bus operators of the United

Cu7zocTixaU | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cu7zocTixaU | Could playing host to hookworms help prevent aging? | off to my right we are looking at the potential benefits to therapy with something so-called helmet otherwise known as parasites like tapeworms hook worms and so on and so forth now keep in mind before i proceed this is not a recommendation to start consuming parasites what this research primary looked at more than anything else was possibly taking protein-derived therapeutic elements from so-called helmets in reference to potentially treating a lot of ailments associated with aging if not aging itself because they found out that many of these helmets over time off of basically darwinian type principles serve this symbiotic relationship more so with their evolutionary process of people and help stabilize the immune system then potentially just purely a parasitic role as far as making people ill now this is real important because it cannot come in a more apropos time as we stand looking over the ledge of the abyss of what i consider dysbiosian dysbiosis dysbiosis utopia we're over sanitizing and basically creating a sterile environment which looking into that abyss will welcome these type of ailments if the theory holds true a reference to hygiene hypothesis real real vital very important time to look at everything as a whole instead of looking at each variable in its isolated element but to proceed as follows could playing host hook worms help prevent aging again looking at altering the terminology of parasite to symbiote as our understanding begins to evolve however again too to reiterate looking at possibly getting protein-derived elements from these parasites to help stabilize the immune system and help of course also a reference to aging and age-related ailments but to proceed parasitic worms could hold the key to living longer and free of chronic disease according to a review article published today in the open access e-life journal the review looks at the growing evidence suggests that losing our old friend helmet parasites which used to live relatively harmless in our bodies can cause aging associated inflammation it raises the possibility of carefully controlled restorative helmet treatments again doesn't have to do with the parasite itself could prevent aging and protect against diseases such as heart disease and dementia a decline in exposure to common soul microbes and gut helmets real important again today without adding interjecting publisher bias how we're really creating a very very very clean albeit microbe sterile environment can play a role in future chronic disease in developed countries has been linked to increased prevalence of allergic and autoimmune inflammatory disorders the so-called old friends hypothesis quote in the researcher a further possibility is that this loss of old friend microbes and helmets increases the sterile aging associated inflammation known as and the term that they're coining inflammation inflammation is increasing increasingly thought to be a contributory factor to the major diseases of later life including heart disease dementia cancer chronic obstructive pulmonary disease osteoporosis age-related eye disease and more recently which this is a stretch in reference to correlation a lot of mortality uh of sars uv-2 which they interjected into here happens in areas which are considered fairly sterile doesn't mean the sterilization caused it but however the correlation may exist and at least in this case here the correlation may exist to an immune system which is fairly weak because of lack of challenge from being raised in a sterile environment now we're going to go right into the research while some of the severity of circle dash 2 cover 19 infections we're going to go right into the full study itself which of course i'll have the links for you as well because i want to read the abstract uh in full because they do an ex excellent job explaining it in its entirety and they want to look go a little bit into the full study itself and just take a couple excerpts even though i really really recommend looking at the full study it is just enlightening uh synopsis in reference to potential benefits of helmet therapy again parasites symbiote get a balance it out quote evolutionary medicine argues that disease can arise because modern conditions do not match those in which we evolved for example a decline in exposure to comments on microbes and gastrointestinal helmets in developed countries has been linked to increased prevalence of allergic and autoimmune inflammatory disorders henceforth the hygiene hypothesis accordingly probiotic therapies that restore old front microbes and helmets have been explored as darwinian treatments for these disorders a further possibility is the loss of old friend common souls also increases the sterile aging associated inflammation known as inflammation who contributes to a range of age-related diseases including almost skeptic cardiovascular disease dementia and cancer interestingly as recently reported that treatment with a secretive glycoprotein from a parasitic nematode can protect against mirroring aging by induction of anti-inflammatory mechanisms here we explore the hypothesis that restorative helmet therapy would have anti-inflammation effects could worm infections provide broad spectrum protection against age-related diseases again an important hypothesis and they make their argument quite clear in the full study now i'll move a little bit forward and take an excerpt from the introduction just to kind of basically what your desire to proceed forward when looking at the full research itself while there are clearly multiple contributory factors one determinant whose importance is becoming increasingly clear you can hear this over and over again inflammation the state of systemic low-grade inflammation that increases with age independent of attack by infectious pathogens such inflammation is a contributory factor in diverse age-related pathologies including cardiovascular disease dementia cancer chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and reiterating of course osteoporosis age related macular degeneration and perhaps again even symptom severity during repeating again but this time they're bringing up the reference as you see sar suv-2 cover 19 infections to proceed forward or down one interpretation of the cause of such dysbiotic effects utilizes the old french hypothesis derived from the hygiene hypothesis hygiene hygiene hypothesis this argues that the human immune system evolved optimal function in a dirtier world including the presence of various microbes and helmet parasites who remove whose removal again i'm emphasizing for a particular reason obviously being today in our modern environment all be increasingly sterile whose removal leads to pathogenic immunological hyperactivity i'm going to bring back up the potential chart real fast and reference the helmet therapy again when i say we're looking into the abyss of a dysbiosian utopia that's what's looking back at us again doesn't mean people start to get dirty necessarily but at least to look at the argument that the researchers are making in reference to if not being exposed to parasites in a natural environment at the very least look at the proteins involved in the production from these parasites that help stabilize the immune systems of humans which are not homogeneous which as many politicians like sorry individuals like make you think that we are connected largely and have been connected from since the beginning uh in reference to evolutionary process in developing our own immune system and helping offset this which should not necessarily be natural if these are naturally prevented uh in basically a normal environment not sterile but to proceed as follows it goes without saying that improvements in hygiene and elimination of helmet parasites have been of incalculable benefit to humanity but at a cost coupled to this benefit is abnormalities of immune function recording the researcher in the wake of success in the last century of eliminating the evil of helmets the time now seems right to further explore the possible benefits particularly for our aging population strange as this may sound again it takes a lot for researchers to come up and say hey look you know i know this looks good and sanitation has saved an untold number of lives which it has uh but however though maybe we have to look at more of achieving homeostasis some sort of balance to restore back the symbiotic relationship we had with certain elements in our natural environment uh just so we can restore ourselves not necessarily just for life expectancy or really great at keeping people alive a long period of time but to restore the number of healthy years and by doing so indirectly reducing a person's natural susceptibility to the many unknowns which may proceed in the future again really really cool research apropos timing i wanted to bring it to your attention obviously nothing on something you take like three hook worms and call a person in the morning type thing but you know what i mean again being in the environment does have benefits albeit sometimes not what we expect but however though doi citation there follow a link for you and uh just read it on your own and make your own judgment or your own conclusion it's important as we go to more as this hygienic aspect uh it's even more important today than ever before behaviors start getting established which may not be how we describe it uh beneficial to the future of all of us but again also too as a side note we do our data analysis on saturday and sunday like last weekend we covered the fact that they use 6.88 billion surgical masks per day and uh just a side note that's how many masks get destroyed and for those that made it be aware again this is what we covered on the weekends just to encourage you if our founding fathers were wearing surgical masks disposable surgical masks those masks would still be around today because it takes an untold number of centuries for those face coverings to degrade in the environment plus the fact is too we reviewed the precipitous drop in infections as well as the bizarre rise in mortality and these are all things we cover on this saturday and sunday and again not to add publisher bias but at least a look at the data which is not being presented throughout the normal media again kind of a long segment i want to encourage you to go to the full study itself research it on your own just get some good feel for it understand where they're coming from potential treatments to eliminating all those ailments that basically occur because the immune system dysfunction again ralph signing off thank you gratitude and i'll see you all next time [Music] you | VHFILM | UCSxq36i1g2yb-GdmNq77U7w | 2021-02-10 | Creative

episode of my creative podcast and Selma and here we will talk mainly about knitting although there will be a little bit of sewing today as well I hope you well this is the first episode that I will record in English so I hope you will forgive me for any mistake I might make along the way I'm not exactly used to publicly speaking in English although we do speak English at home still so I do have a bit of practice but that's still a very very different exercise listening the weather here is very very dark so I hope that the light will stay good enough for me to keep filming today because sometimes it can be really bad anyway I decided to start feminine in filming in English sorry because I've been making or writing subtitles for my previous podcast and it's a hell lot of work which I unfortunately could not necessarily keep up with so I thought why not just try it in English we will see how it goes and if you like it please let me know so I can so I will keep doing them it's just much easier for me to actually record - and edit two episodes then just record and edit one in French and then subtitle it so there you go hello lovely english-speaking people we can start already with the finished objects that's how I usually do finish objects working works in progress and then planned projects and then the rest so the first finished object is actually one which I had finished already before I talked about it in my previous episode it's the venture hat by Aldo Han unfortunately I'd lost it the next day after finishing it when we went to Ikea with my husband that was very upset about losing it so I decided to actually order a second skein of this bluish grayish greenish color it's my AK baby yak medium the colorways are daydream and midnight I think yes so I ordered the second skin from Loop London because it was not available anywhere in France the good thing is I'm doing it a second time has allowed me to recognize that I actually made a mistake the first time I'm pretty sure although I'm not 100% certain that I didn't knew twisted ribbing but just regular one one ribs so this one's actually sits or holes better on my head I didn't wash it after finishing it so it's still a bit stiff which makes me a bit like look a bit like a smurf but I try to pull it down if I'm wearing and I will wash it at some point it's just that I was too lazy lately to do that so it's a bit a bit weird but it will be more subtle after I wash it it's still pretty rustic yarn so although it's not it's not scratchy at all it's just it's just not super soft or anything but I actually really like it and so that way I could also practice my colour work you know I really like what the inside looks like just looks almost as pretty as a day outside which is really cool of course it's not supposed to be worn that way but at least I know that it's nice inside as well which is good so there you go it's fairly easy I finished it again in just one day so as soon as you actually understand that you should wear understand or just manage to have one thread in each hand you know so one side will basically units English style for one color and continental for a second so yeah not nothing too complicated the second finished object is the Paris and Berlin cow by hokey Locatelli that she wrote especially for the Berlin it's festival the only downside of that is that there is no code on that well it was included in the program which we got when we are after the festival but there was no code to download digital version online which was a bit of a shame but then no big deal either so it's it's a quite long with yeah it's quite long with them with a tip you know and assymetrical there's a big difference in length between the front and the back but anyway so yeah you begin with it's not plain stockinette stitch it's already a textured stitch up there and then you go on with a quilted stitch which looks really really nice and is actually much easier than it looks basically you bring you knit five stitches with the yarn in front of them and then in the next row you will pick up that that yarn that yeah you will pick up the yarn to knit it with the next stitch basically I don't know if I explained it really well but it ends up it ends up looking really really nice I didn't wash it either so it's a bit the the garter stitch on the bottom tends to print a bit but that's no big deal I wore it the other day to go to the office on my villa bath so that's the public bath bikes in Paris and it's actually really nice because if you're wearing a top which has a bit of a v-neck or something then it really covers it well and you don't get any draft you can even pull it over your face I won't do that today because I'm wearing obviously bright lipstick so it wouldn't be a good idea but it's really nice and the yarn is labs only me Mary no singles in the colorway Paris and Berlin as well it was a limited edition for the festival so it's a pretty special count to me yeah I really like it I like that it gives me a challenge you know always learning new stitches and stuff like that that's all for them for the finished objects actually I wanted to actually started this one because I assumed that it would be fast and took me less than a week and and I wanted to use some of the yarns which I already had in my stash but I wasn't too inspired leaders that was it I went back to my what the fade so it's it's my first work in progress okay so here's the front I really really like it still I'm getting more comfortable at very harsh knitting although it was not well it was not something I had done before previously so so yeah but then after all this it's getting better so I'm starting the second change in colors which means that for now I have four skeins attached to the to the knitting itself which makes it a bit cumbersome to transport so I'm leaving it at home and keeping it for evenings but this week I went back to work and I was pretty tired so I didn't have much energy to go on so but I will find a new pace you know next week and it should be better yeah because I have been off of work for five months and it's it's pretty hard to go back to it the second work in progress is actually not in progress at all because I had to frog it completely yesterday I had finished its though I will show you it's the pavement sweater by viv very Mickey and yeah I really really like it and I have finished the color and the yoke and I was starting I was about to start on the body I had just finished division and then I recounted my stitches and I recognized there was a mistake and it was visible and it was pretty hard to fix so I just didn't that I it so here's my sweater yeah it was very frustrating to be honest and last night I came back pretty late and I didn't well I I couldn't make it the way I wanted the costing all of them of the colour so I just did a couple dozen stitches there and I will go on sometime probably tomorrow because we have our housewarming party tonight and I do have some stuff to do at home before it can actually happen so yeah that's my in progress not in progress sweater I really really hope that I will be able to go on because I actually really like the yarn the way it looks it's it's yeah like the yarn I like the pull over but I just need time more time and more focus the last work-in-progress is actually a really easy one which I just didn't have the energy to do this week is the booties that go with this kimono which I need to like six months ago yeah well it's going it's supposed to be really fast so I've only just done that but it's a matter of energy again but I am confident I will be able to finish them soon enough it's just booties after all for baking so small feet so fast work my thesis should be that's all for my works in progress I have so many things which I actually want to do in which I plan to do in the future but then I being wondering if it actually didn't make sense Oh give me a second sorry I had to go because my husband just came back from running and yeah he just basically opened the door and yeah so anyway don't with the pause what was I saying yes my future projects I've decided to basically almost stop telling you anything which I plan to make in the future because I keep changing my mind anyway so does it I'm not sure it really makes sense mmm the only thing which I will show you today is the mittens I plan on making very soon because I just bought the yarn for it and it should be a fast knit it's the puzzle with mittens by roof where I I sure hope that I am not that I'm pronouncing this right she's Canadian I think it's a pair of mittens which are which have two colors and I'm pretty nice I don't know if it's color work anyway textured stitch which look really good with the yarns I've selected it's it's Liberty lumps fool by be Jewish it's a fairly recent French well yeah it's French company there I think they're Danish but they are in front they're based in France and this is lamb's wool from Scotland it's very cheap you will very rustic I already love it I think the textured stitch will look really nice with those two colors the burgundy and the dark grey yeah really happy the pattern comes from the book woods by making stories it's very Nicole very Nikolas and Hanna Lisa have become they are both Germans and and I really really like what they show on Instagram for example I've been following them for quite some time and I ordered like either book it's 149 pages so it's pretty fake and it's full to the brim with lovely lovely projects and beautiful pictures and very interesting interviews and background pieces yeah the scene this color works what I wish I will show you here as well which I found really amazing of course that will only come after I'm done with them with the other yes it's really really nice and yeah all the under use comes from Europe Europe if I'm not mistaken so it's I think it's pretty good I wouldn't say angle but it's good commitment in my opinion because we don't know enough local and we don't use enough local I'm trying to be a bit more conscious but my yarn choices lately which is why I don't knit with drops yarn although they are very very they have a really great range but I don't know about where about other countries but in France they're really cheap yawns so I can't help but wonder where it comes from and how it's actually produced you know I don't know I can't find the information anywhere so if you have it please let me know but in the meantime I still have two two bowls of their yarn which I bought some time ago when it didn't get to use yet so I'm throw it of course but I will I don't think I will buy from them anytime soon there's I love this there are also tutorials in the book for example heel construction there's a sewing tutorial as well and there are always background pieces on the designers which I found really fun which I found really nice as well I think we don't hear enough about the designers themselves you know particularly when we like what they're actually doing yeah so that was the only soon to happen future project now we'll show you what I bought recently I received two things this week or last week so that's the book woods which I just showed you and this lovely project bag by Hannah Lisa half a calm yeah well it's it's beautiful with the soft burgundy fabric there and this chevron break and the linen inside it has a small pocket and I actually don't know the English name for that I can't remember right now so I won't use it but it has this inside I think you're supposed to use it to put the thread through you know I'm here yawn come out and be guided by that but I don't really like that kind of things somehow it feels like if you put your yarn cake in the bottom and put the the thread through then it just tends to get stuck you know when you try to when you pull on it to unroll it I don't know anyway it has the lovely rose gold zipper with the small leather I don't know I know that she offers to put something else or at least remove the leather if you don't want any younger project bag it's really really nice quality the finishing is really good and I'm very happy about it it fits perfectly in my bag and as well it's also burgundy which you have which I have decided it would be my color for the winter and this year hence the color I chose for the mittens is one this week in Paris there were two festivals related to creative odds so the first one is CSF - it's a gigantic thing it takes place at the Paris Expo and it's an a huge hole there are 260 vendors which are of course it covers all kinds of creative arts so it's not only five hours but they do have some nice stuff I brought a couple of a couple about some new batches for my badges collection which is getting reading really out of hand lately but who cares so about this one which said a brilliant little flicks so basically Netflix subscriber I bought this one which is wait I'm finishing my row and this one which says knitting is not boring the company that sells them is she's they're called little weasel they are a locally owned store in the middle of Paris and they always have denied the funniest badges you know so I think every year basically up by a couple from them I also bought this because I had lost my ruler meter thingy and of course with any time that kind of thing happened you buy a new one and that's when you find the old one well anyway I needed a new one because I really needed one that had both centimeters and inches and this one does and it's a drinking cat that's a life and it's soft and fleshy it's just a gadget but I needed something and that fit my needs so there you go I also bought this little pattern I am NOT a huge fan as I've said already before of paper knitting pattern or printed knitting patterns because the animal you can't really write on them and it's not always the most convenient to transport five this one has a small food in the bag to download the full version on Ravelry so thank you Miami it's the her latest sweater design it's called paeonia and so she's Maria many designs I really like her that's her aunts generally speaking and I've seen this one in real life by one of the testers on Wednesday when I went to the fair to the expo and I recognized that it looked really nice so I thought okay why not it's free big risk that she took because making a printed pattern is more expensive than just the digital ones but this one is really nice printing quality so I really don't regret and I saw it like supporting small small I like supporting designers generally speaking soon why not that's where I stopped for knitting and I bought a couple of other things for sewing because I invested in a new sewing machine so Husqvarna Viking Viking Viking whatever it's a Swedish brand I really like it it's electronic of course it's a really big financial investment but then I thought it's 30 it's really good quality so I'm just doing because I was really really limited by the fact that mine was so Oh temporary mental anyway now I have a good really good one I won't show it to you right now because I didn't even unpack it yet but I think I'm going to have a lot of fun with it so I bought this kids - saw pouch with some Japanese [Music] sorry my name is upstairs are making some kind of mess so maybe you will hear it maybe not we'll see that the other thing I bought for sewing is a clip by Luna saw which has the pattern and all the material for making these shorts they say that it's level 3 out of 5 so maybe keep it for later when I'm a bit more confident with my sewing machine but I really really like the fabric and and the shorts as they were displayed on there step on their booth so I thought why not yeah and I bought two pieces of Japanese fabric this one with the Owls just had my name all over it and this one was just pretty I'm not exactly sure yet what I will do with them but I just really like them you don't really need reasonable reasons why something right so that's all I brought at the festival the first one big one the second one is called like ohonta necessary necessary is a haberdashery I think it's where there are self-proclaimed slow DIY festival there it's it's actually really small but I thought I would go and take a look it's the second edition it's right in the center of Paris and they had like a dozen vendors there was some yarn but there was mostly sewing equipment or patterns and fabrics and that kind of things so of course I had to leave with a tote bag which is really nice like whole Mississippi and it says creative and committed that's all me yeah I wouldn't say that I'm super committed but I try to be a bit more mindful too as to where my things come from and how they're made you know the only thing I because I've decided to try and not to add too much to my stash although there were some huge temptations is a set of sewing kits there is one for panties and one for a bra it has lace and it's it was beautiful and it's supposed not to be too complicated so I thought that we would well it's for me but it's also not only for me you know my husband will enjoy it as well so baby well maybe yeah join them how can I say that business and leisure I don't know anyway thinking would be a lot of fun to sew and see the result you know so it's good practice generics people like practicing yeah I know I have two more notches to show you because this one has been offered me by Canada which has purpose as well Kanani Lucchese I think you will start podcasting in English as well soon enough but anyway it's the undercover otter logo spirit animal anyway it's an otter wearing a Hannibal Lecter mask and knitted cover on his back so it has taken residence on this bag because they match the cover and the bag and I really really like it and there's this as well I went for the first time to the equity so nice night at my palace and one of the members participants organizers I don't know I brought us those small badges that say knitting addict Rico etiquette and the name of the of the to put in there the llama is just so funny yeah it was a really really nice attention there well I think we've seen it all I hope you liked this first English episode I actually had fun so I hope you will enjoy it as well I think the next episode should come in about two weeks let me know in the comments if there is anything you would like me to cover or tell you about let me know what you're doing and yeah basically anything I wish you a really really nice end of the week and until we meet again enjoy anything [Music] | Selma’s

wq80ioyppjk | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wq80ioyppjk | Beginner Coders Explain How To Solve Easy LeetCode Problem | 1929 concatenation of array says given an integer array nums of length n you want to create an array a ANS of length 2 N where a ANS I index I equals equals um nums index I ands I index I plus n equals nums index I for 0 less than equal to I which is is also less than n and it's also zero index just to be clear and then uh specifically ANS is a concatenation of two num arrays return the array a ands for example if the input of uh of the nums array is one 12 one the output would be one 12 one one 121 just almost it's just like concatenating it to the end of it from my understanding so the explanation is that the arrays is formed as follows ANS equals num index zero comma num index one num index two num IND zero num index one and num index two and which equals that one two one one two one same thing with example two the num's input is 1321 so then the output would be 132 1 132 1 uh seems fairly easy that's why we wanted to do it from the beginning yep yep so um let's uh talk about our pseudo code how T so we have to create an array of 2 N right so I would say this create an array of 2N right so here for here for example right we have for index zero index one = 2 = 3 index four index five right I think we're able to look Loop through nums right and say all right put an index one but add uh wait a minute one two but at what is it uh one three four two add three add three right add three and put it also here right the same number but on the third one right so now we have zero plus three equal three so now the index three you also going to put the one there right now you're on one you put two you got 1 + 3 equal 4 you're going to put two here and you go 2 + 3 = 5 you're going to put one there but also one over here yeah the only problem is is figuring out this Factor the three I don't think so I think that the factor is the half no it's just the length of the of the original array if the array is length four so one two hey bro that's so true yeah this is three yeah for sure for sure for sure that's interesting that this I think both could work yeah I feel like both could work for sure for sure I'm interested in in your approach because um how would you have the how would you tell it to go to index 4 if there's nothing in there are you saying you're GNA have default values because we have a nums we have we're going to have a we're going to have another a temporary array right where we just going to do where we just going to say all right go to this index and just equal it to whatever value we want and go n weal to uh we could to zero right times Len nums time 2 yeah yeah you still with me still with me I'm with you I'm with you all right so we just need a factor which will equal length nums right that's a factor that's our number three that's this number right here right yes yes yes yes yes for I in no in range if I'm not mistaking L nums yeah like this right and it's going to go boom boom boom We equal nums position I right and then we're going to go ANS I plus VOR will equal nums I that should work one two one one two one okay okay oh no no no the output I I got this or is it this one this one no yeah that's that okay okay hey yes sir all right all right okay okay okay okay okay all right let's see run it yes sir yes sir we're in here we're in here over ain't over it ain't over submit cross your fingers cross your legs yes sir yes sir we in here we're in here first sh first problem yes sir so the answer right the answer has to go uh has to be two times the length of nums right why because we're given nums right the purpose of this problem is to replicate nums in another way for example one to one we have one to one here and one two one here 13 two one we got 13 two one here 13 two one so that means that the um the length of enter has to be double right because we're duplicating the values of Nubs right so that's what we do we get here what we do here where we get the length of nums right in this case it's 1 two 3 we multiply times two right which equals six right since in the output we have 1 2 3 4 five six right so now we have the double the size and we set all the indices to zero so now we have something like this right where ANS equals 1 2 3 4 5 6 right for example one right and we get the factor this factor is going to come in and clutch is going to come in handy right and this factor is basically the length of Nubs in this case Factor will equal Factor Why caps we equal three why because we have 1 2 1 1 2 1 three simple right right and now here here's where we did a little trick right to save more so we don't Loop through the array multiple times right we just say all right go to the first Index right and set it to the first number of nums right which in this case is one right so we go here and we go one right and here over here here's where the factor one comes in the factor is just the length of nums right so we get I and we add three that means that we're going to go to N3 which is this one right here right when we go there we're going to equal it to one right you see so we're doing a mirror effect what we do to one side we do to the other side right yeah yeah we loop again now I will equal will equal two right if I'm not mistaken no so yeah it's going to equal two no one right so we're going to go to index one which is this one and we're going to equal it two index one on the nums which is two and we're going to replicate it over here too by going to the other the same position but on the other half right so 1 + 3 which equals 4 which is this one and the same thing we do the last one which is one which is two and five boom so that's the entire thing we're doing like a what we do to one side we shift the index by a factor we do the same same exact same thing in the other way so that's that's that's good to go | HardWorkingGeniuses |

Macarius the great in seats Egypt topic writings the 50 spiritual homilies and letters topic 50 spiritual homilies were ascribed to macarius a few generations after his death and these texts had a widespread and considerable influence on eastern monasticism and protestant peat ISM this was particularly in the context of the debate concerning the extraordinary giftings of the holy spirit in the post Apostolic age since the Meharry anomalies could serve as evidence in favor of a post apostolic at a station of miraculous pneumatic giftings to include healings visions exorcisms etc the Meharry anomalies have thus influenced Pyatt estranging from the spiritual Franciscans West to Eastern Orthodox monastic practice - John Wesley - modern charismatic Christianity however modern patristic scholars have established that it is not likely that Macarius the Egyptian was their author the identity of the author of these 50 spiritual homilies has not been definitively established although it is evident from statements in them that the author was from Upper Mesopotamia where the Roman Empire bordered the Persian Empire and that they were not written later than 534 in addition to the homilies a number of letters have been ascribed to Macarius gennadius de Vera's illustris 10 recognizes only one genuine letter of Macarius which is addressed to younger monks the first letter called ad filius de may indeed be the genuine letter by Macarius the egyptian that is mentioned by Jamaa dias beer LLL point one zero but the other letters are probably not by Macarius the second letter the so called great letter used the de instituto christiana of gregory of nyssa which was written c 390 the style and content of the great letter suggests that its author is the same anonymous mesopotamian who wrote the fifty spiritual homilies the seven so-called opus Kula Aesthetica edited under his name by Petra's posthumous paris 1683 are merely later compilations from the homilies made by simeon the logo thee't who is probably identical with simeon Medifast days d 950 the teachings of Macarius are characterized by a strong pneumatic emphasis that closely intertwines the salvific work of Jesus Christ as the spirit of Christ with the supernatural workings of the holy spirit this pneumatic thrust in the spiritual homilies is often termed mystical and as such as a spiritual mode of thought which has endeared him to christian mystics of all ages although on the other hand in his anthropology and soteriology he frequently approximates the standpoint of st.

into our virtual basket we hope you enjoyed the podcast have a great day hi everybody i'm charlie very grateful recovered alcoholic it's over since march 22 of 1985 i'm truly grateful this is my wife katie her mic is off should she'll get to her we're going to do we're going to do a workshop on step three and the root of our problem we're going to talk more about that here in a minute but now turn me on here she's keeping the timer so i got to talk really fast because she ain't playing when it comes to when it comes to splitting this time she's like now if we're going to split 17 minutes each year you do not go 19 minutes and i know we were best friends for 20 years before we ever became a couple so you'll see some of that brother-sister energy there's still a little that and boy she is tough but before i get started i got um you know we're here in muscle shoals alabama we come from austin texas and uh and i i'm not seeing a lot of burnt orange around here but uh i'm a big fan of college football and my new friend justin brought me a really nice grip and you know they say when in rome do as they're also roll tide all right it's all right i like that a lot we're gonna we're gonna talk today some of you guys were here last night at my talk and uh and i really uh i questioned you coming back after hearing that last night but i'm real proud you did i talked about having my biggest awakening my biggest spiritual awakening happened at 17 years of sobriety and that's what i get real excited talking about is that something happened for me that changed the entire course of my sobriety after i've been around the aaa for a long time so i mean and that's what that's what we're going to talk about this big awakening that happened this new understanding that i have and as it turns out the big book takes a huge turn on page 60 and i missed it for 17 years i spent a lot of time working a program like the problem was alcohol and and if i didn't drink i should be okay and i talked a little bit about it last night about those two fists and what it means to actually be powerless over alcohol that hope when i say i'm a recovered alcoholic what we're talking about having recovered from is that hopeless state of mind and body and it's all over the book and the fourth of the first edition says we have alcoholics anonymous are more than 100 men and women who have recovered from a seemingly hopeless state of mind and body the book talks about being recovered all throughout the i don't want to spend a lot of time talking about that but we spend the book spends the doctor's opinion in the first 43 pages talking about what it means to be an alcoholic because if you're drunk like me it is so important that i have what i call my first job when i sit down with the new guys to give him what i call a first step experience i like to be able to give him what i call a fatal dose of alcoholism when we're done if i've explained step one to a guy and he's not a little scared and a little depressed either i haven't done my job right or he's psychotic and we can't help him much anyway you know i mean because there is no happy ending to step one you know the step one is that i am completely hosed on my own power i got no shot no shot no shot and i'm not going to be interested in any other kind of power until i'm convinced that my power ain't going to get the job done and if you're drunk like me you got to cut off every possible avenue of escape every loophole everything i can squirm out of before before i finally go wow i think i may have it just like you're describing it well then this power starts getting really interesting and like i was saying last night i suffered from untreated alcoholism in the rooms of alcoholics anonymous for a long time and when we talk about untreated alcoholism you know somebody we've had people come up before i go what do you mean by untreated alcoholism what is this untreated alcoholism you're talking about and if we're all alcoholic as i'm assuming we are and the the acknowledged treatment for our disease is to continuously work the 12 steps of alcoholics anonymous and if i'm not actively involved in that process whether i'm going to meetings or not i'm not treating my alcoholism so it would be easy to understand how i could wind up in untreated alcoholism and we're going to talk a lot about how that squirts out now see i get to lay everything out but katie is docking me for every second of this time so i i have to robbing me at some of my best lines he's already taken two well i'm believe me that one about the whole not treating my alcoholism that's straight out of here yeah so but if we're in untreated alcoholism what are we talking about doing because there's two things that i could be i could worry about one is either i'm not treating my alcoholism or the other is that maybe i misunderstand the process and nobody is misunderstanding the process because a malicious intent or anything like that i mean you know it's how do you know what you don't know you know my sponsor used to talk about that a lot how do you know what you don't know and and and so what we're going to talk about a lot but you know we're and it's not like we're a couple of experts from texas or gso or whatever they've been sent to straighten everything out we're just going to talk today about what our experience has been with a new understanding of the third step and it was a hugely significant piece for us and i work a lot in our in my sponsorship lineage we work a lot with the set-aside prayer and i know some people gary has talked about it and i know some and randy and len have talked about it's a very powerful spiritual exercise and in the set-aside prayer we just say something like god please help us to set aside everything that we think we know about ourselves the big book the fellowship of a a the steps and even you god so that we could have a new experience please help me to see the truth something like that because if you've been around especially i use the set-aside prayer a lot when i'm working with folks that have been around the rooms for a while because if you're like me a lot of times what i think i know can stand in the way of the truth you know a lot of times i'll turn into a page and i'll go oh yeah uh-huh oh yeah say oh yeah i know this is that page where it says this and that in fact you know you can't tell me anything about this place look at there i've got this one underlined and highlighted you know and you know and and there's something that happens when i do the set-aside prayer which it's amazing why just is it possible that there might be a new experience and some of this stuff and every once in a while a huge piece of information will just leap up off the page at me where i go good grief that's got to only be in the fourth edition right you know i mean i don't think that was in my third edition you know and stuff like that so that's what we're going to talk about and um i gotta roll uh um so uh it says we just finished reading what he read and how it works you know and we finish up how it works is what i call the most often read and least listen to portion of the big book you know that's as close as a lot of us ever get to meditation is is when they go rarely have we seen a person fail and we go zoom you know and then i don't come back into the room until they go and see that god could and would if he ever saw you know you know what the next line it's is that because it says hey that we're alcohol and could not manage our lives be that probably no human power could have relieved our alcoholism see that by now i don't know when it says a that we were alcoholic and could not manage our own lives i don't know what that means by now if i've had somebody break this down for me and b that probably no human power could relieve my alcoholism i'm convinced now that i can't fix it my sponsor can't fix it my treatment center my parole officer my best friend my mother my whatever i can't and see that god could and would if he were assault you know what the next line is after that it says being convinced we were at step three being convinced of what a b and c so if being if being convinced of a b and c puts me in step three then a b and c contain a really nice summation of one and two a that i'm alcoholic can't manage my own life b that probably no human power could relieve my alcoholism and see that god could and what if he were salt well here's where it gets really interesting this is what we're going to talk about today when i say it takes a huge turn on right on page 60 all of a sudden right here we ain't talking about alcohol anymore it's going to switch the focus right here and when i say one of the mistakes i see being made is if you take somebody right from sea that god could and would if he were sought to go okay you believe you're alcoholic randy yeah yes i am uh do you think do you have any trouble with god well not real i'm willing to look at it see and then then let's get down on our knees and do the third step prayer if i do that i'm going to skip this whole body of work that we're going to talk about today and that was my experience for 17 years and you missed this piece that's really just like i said last night not really that important it's just the root of my problem and the basis of my recovery for the rest of my life other than other than that when you just skip it you know but so but it says being convinced we're at step three which is that we decided to turn our will and our life over to the care of god as we understand him you know back on page 29 there's a very interesting promise in the first new paragraph it says further on clear-cut directions are given showing how we recovered that's a healthy piece of information because if you come in here that's one of the things that makes this book a big deal is it promises me clear-cut directions showing how our founders recovered that's why they wrote the book they found it so important that they wanted to put down clear-cut directions showing exactly how they were covered but here comes some of them because you know if we've taken this new guy and we've pounded him with a fatal dose of alcoholism i just say guy because i work with guys but when you say okay now chad it's time for you to turn your will and your life over to the care of god if he's a new guy i think it's a fair question for him to go okay okay i don't have but what do you mean by that and what do you want me to do you know because it's a little foggy when you say we want you to turn your will in your life over the care of god well here's some what's interesting and what i miss from it's going to spend the next two pages talking about what we mean and this is going to switch over to what we do there's a huge line here and this is one that leaped off the page at me one day i was 17 years old i'm going back through and i'm reading the book now look down and it says the first requirement is that we be convinced that any life run on self-will can hardly be a success i remember looking at that and going good grief not only have i never been convinced of that that line has never touched me i was far from being convinced that any life and my sponsorship likes to go in first person on this so it says the first requirement is that charlie be convinced that charlie's life run on self-will can hardly be a success and if i was going to change anything it would say be convinced that any part of my life run on self-will can hardly be a success because we tend to compartmentalize the areas we want to give to god you know and i'll keep the relationship and the money and the kids and we talked about that last night but then it goes into something now it's interesting it says in the in the book it says we were now at step 3 twice it says it here on page 60 and then it says it again over before the third step prayer and i think the reason that they say it twice is because they know that at this point if i'm the new guy sitting on page 60 i don't have enough information to be convinced that my life run on self-will can hardly be a success right i'm sitting there going no i'm you know it's you with me well listen to what it says on that basis now gary and i were talking about basis there are words that have become very important to me in studying the big book one of them is consciousness one of them is principles and one that i've been working with the last few years is the word basis and the book leans on it bill williams on it really heavily basis means the underlying principle the underlying foundation of something or the the basic principle of something right so it's saying on that basis what basis the basis of self-will on the basis that i'm running this deal right it says on that basis i'm in constant collision with something or somebody even though my motives are good whoops see the reason i don't ever see self-willing my stuff is two things that we're about to explain one is my motives right it's saying i can't even trust my motives right you do something really wonderful for your a club and you look up and everybody's pissed off at you you know and you're going what but all i'm going to tell you about is my motives i'm going to say i wouldn't i want oh wait wait why am i in the hot seat i wouldn't try i was just trying to do i'm going to be talking well it gets worse it says on that basis i'm in constant i'm almost always in collision with something or somebody even though our motives are good i think half the discussion meetings out there that should be the topic is really just constant collision you know it's like today we're going to talk about what did you collide with today you know i said well i'd like to talk about work i like talking about my kids i like talking about traffic it goes a little deeper than that and it says most people try to live by self-propulsion anybody read this thing on the actor and get nothing out of it oh i did i may be the only one it probably doesn't happen in alabama but it was it was bad but it says each person is like an actor who wants to run the whole show he's forever trying to arrange the lights the ballet the scenery and the rest of the players in his own way you know what i never really put into place on this thing the reason this guy is such a troublemaker is because he's just an actor i didn't put together for a long time he's not the director his just his job is stand on the x you know chad here's your pair you stand right there on the x and when they walk through you say good morning mr clooney you know and that's that's all your job's supposed to be well imagine if we go okay action and then comes george clooney and and i go and i'm the guy that's supposed to have that line and i sit in there and go hold up whoa whoa whoa hold up wait just a minute this is not at all right and these lights need to be a little higher i need these people to move back a little bit i think i need to stand a little closer to the door i'm definitely going to need more lines i don't like the outfit that he's right you see what i'm saying and the director is over there going who is this guy you know you see how that causes a little a little chaos and now here's the second piece of this thing it's what we call the delusion this is the delusion of self-will and and it rolls into it at the bottom of page 60 it says if his arrangements would only stay put if only people would do as he wished now here's the great delusion that i live under if only my arrangements would stay put if only people would do as i wish the show would be great here's where it gets really delusional everybody including charlie would be pleased life would be wonderful right that's my delusion and that's why i can't ever see self willing anything because all of my actions are going to get run i always build this funnel that one side of the funnel is my motives and the other side is my delusion and if i run my actions down through that funnel and they come out the bottom side the worst i'm ever going to give myself is about an a minus you know because if i foul up i'm going to be telling you what my motives were and what i was really trying to do and then i had this delusion i'm not selfish it's this charlietopia we're trying to create here you know every everybody's gonna be happy i got randy and chad gary and everybody cut in on the deal we'd all be happy if you knuckleheads we're just acts right but you know what the problem is i have a very little experience with getting everybody to act right you know you can't ever get everybody to ask right and it says and it goes on to what we call the toolkit of self-will it says in trying to make these arrangements right and trying to get everything i always imagine this guy kind of juking and trying to get everything to go up and says i may be quite kind considerate patient generous even modest and self-sacrificing right and trying to get things unless what unless that ain't working all right and then it says on the other hand i might be mean egotistical selfish and dishonest but it's all it's it's all me trying to get things to go the way that i think they need to go for everybody to be happy that's why it blows me away if this is the root of my problem and if it's saying that if only my arrangements would stay put if only people would do this i wish but when people see you have a tendency to want to control things they want to go oh you need to go to this other 12-step fellowship and you're like not really i mean it's the root of my problem i'm not against that other 12-step fellowship but just because i'm controlling doesn't mean that i need to go over there in fact and and that's a whole other topic but the last thing they need is a room full of untreated alcoholics and they're trying to learn how to manage better you know i mean uh hi y'all i'm katie i am an alcoholic i've had the gift of sobriety since october the 28th 1984. that is five and a half months longer than him we'll talk about that tomorrow um and you know it's funny this is we we absolutely love studying the big book and uh we do a lot of big book studies on the weekend we get the the pleasure of being able to travel around and do big book studies and this is not our first rodeo and normally i do the third step and he does steps one and two so he has stolen all that was my stuff i just want you to know okay so it's us it did sound good god dang um but once again the third step one of the big differences between um charlie's story and my story is the fact that he missed the third step and i misunderstood the third step see i charlie and i were best friends right and i was married the entire time and and you could look at charlie and see oh my god he is so self-centered i mean wow you know you couldn't have a conversation with him if you're having a car he's walking up in the middle of it oh my it's so obvious but me well i mean i just don't suffer that bad from it i really don't and you know i was most likable in high school and and really everybody likes me and um you know and so really i just thought you know that drinking was my problem and that this self-centered piece only really showed up in my drinking now in charlie's case it was a little worse and there are some of y'all as a matter of fact there's several of y'all that it is a little worse but not me there's the delusion see alcoholism this is the root of our problem period and the later on in in the third step it says we are an extreme example of self will run riot comma though we usually don't think so see and that was exactly what my problem was and once again in in my early sobriety we worked the steps to the best of our ability it wasn't like we came in here and didn't do anything charlie did three joe and charlie uh big book weekends i was married to a big book guy you know i mean we were all about the big book but you only can get so much based on experience of sobriety i mean you period it's like expecting your five-year-old to jump in the car and drive to the store it's not going to happen they don't have the experience and so you're only going to be awakened to whatever experience you have with the time you have and that's the beauty of having longer term sobriety doesn't mean your program's stronger but you do have a lot more experience in the rooms of alcoholics anonymous you have a lot more experience staying sober be it good or bad right and so that's where that's where this deal kind of starts to come alive because i really really thought it was all about drinking that's where my self-centered behavior was and now that i'm naa i'm a good person and i just do good things but you really bug me so because that i'm just going to stay away from you because you know you bugged me and well you know what so do you and so i'm just going to stay away from you so i just i just started keeping myself separated from all the people that just bugged me and uh yeah and we call it detached and all of this which in our program is not in our program right all of that is not in our program and and that's what i did and you'll hear it in my story tomorrow but uh the line that i love you know i i charlie and i both are just like you guys are in alabama which by the way i do love being in the south this came off some some other states that aren't quite like the south and uh just feels good let me just put you that way um and so what i love in the third step is uh i sponsor a lot of people charlie sponsors a lot of people we're very active in aaa now that wasn't always the case you know today this is what our life is all about and i love this next paragraph because this next paragraph when you call me as a sponsee or i call my sponsor doesn't matter how this deal is rolling out when i call her my troubles have got to be of my own making period there is no wiggle room there is no oh charlie should never have said that to you katie you know what i'm glad you got in your car and drove away that is a death wish to my marriage because you give an alcoholic this much room and that i don't have a part in this deal and i am in very big danger right sometimes we get we get um somewhere along the lines in in the rooms of alcoholics anonymous the term my part came alive there's nowhere in the book that says my part as a matter of fact there's four places in the book that tell you we disregard the other man entirely the inventory is ours we may be somewhat at fault but we're sure my others are more to blame so it's be very very careful of what you hear to be sure it goes along with what the book says because that's what my sobriety was all based on as a matter of fact i don't i'm not the big educational kind so when they handed me a big book that was not good news for me it's like oh you want me to read what oh you know reading's not my forte anyway right give me a smut novel everything's different but give me this literature and no thank you and so you know all of a sudden my i was relying on you reading the big book and saying it in an aaa meeting now now once again no harm to anyone i meant no disrespect it's just what seemed to work for me up until my bottom fell out in my world right so when a sponsor calls me and we're looking at when they're telling they're telling me the story line right and that's how that always starts with the ten step call and they say let me tell you what happened at work today that chick i told you i can't stand well she's really done it can you hear that one oh yeah she's and here we're going man this girl at work and you know she's out to get my job and she's she's sucking up to the boss and blah blah blah blah blah so what we have to look at is first of all i say gosh if only my arrangements would stay put if only everybody would get the memo in the morning and know how to behave right didn't you get the memo i gave you your lines come on you're not you're not standing on your mark you're not doing what i'm expecting you to do and the show is not coming off very well and i i really i'm not very happy with this so it says what's the next line it says after the self-will toolkit what usually happens the show does not come off very well katie begins to think life doesn't treat her right i mean how many of us in here feel sometimes life doesn't treat us right yeah i mean it's it's everybody welcome to alcoholism you know i trust me if it doesn't go the way i think it should i'd love to say i get to acceptance like that and let it just roll off my back and i'm this spiritual queen lucky lucky for me right that my tool kit's a big old tool kit because i suffer from a disease of self-centeredness that i need everything to go the way i want it to go or else and it usually catches me off guard it's not like if it's an obvious thing i can usually handle that pretty well but it's when those motives are good and everybody's upset with me that i feel like i have been done wrong for all i have done for you people and that's really how you're going to treat me and then i want to gossip terribly bad about you and then i just need to character assassinate you and then i pit allies that's what i do i talked about when i've been done wrong i'm gonna talk about four or five people and pit allies and they go you know what that's i don't like them either i know i know i know and uh so you know that's just signing my death wish man and so it says um now here's what i do remember this is 60 to 63 is trying to get me to understand what i do see i can't give anything to god until i understand what it is that i do so i can't turn it over i can't let it go i can't know that i'm selfish and self-centered and that's that's sufficient information i need to know how katie shows up that's why the fourth step is so crucial it is a manifestation of self we are going to consider how katie shows up my personality i am outspoken like charlie said i'm like taking a drink from a fire hose man you're going to get way more than you thought you were i am not going to tone it down i'm coming at you i'm sometimes like a dog on a bone you know and and i mean it's like pull you back pull your back pull you back but that's how myself manifests okay that doesn't make me alcoholic somebody could be in the room that is totally silent matter of fact they're so silent i couldn't i could tell you i didn't even remember being here have you ever had somebody try to explain a personality that was in the room to you and you cannot bring it up because that person is so invisible and that's how self manifests for them we're still both alcoholic so don't misunderstand the difference in what we call personalities right because this is what we're looking for so it says um she decides now listen to what happens the show doesn't come off i begin to think uh life doesn't treat me right she decides to exert herself more now once again i'm not aware that i'm doing this this is not conscious decisions that i'm making when i'm driven by a hundred forms of fear i'm not consciously thinking anything i'm on the do mode i got to take care of this problem because it scared the crap out of me whatever it is it says she becomes on the next occasion still more demanding or gracious right so how many of you guys know that you you had a window of opportunity at work to say one thing to your boss and they didn't get it you didn't get the reaction you want the show didn't come off very well i step back i start i start thinking thinking thinking thinking thinking i got to be more demanding or gracious i gotta figure out how i need to come to him okay do i meet him at the water fountain and say hey listen a minute ago when i said that i clearly saw you didn't get it no not a good approach not a good approach at all okay you know what i'll come to there and i'll just wait for two seconds before i go oh hey hey listen you know a minute ago when i mentioned that to you are you with me on this this is i am totally consumed i am in the bondage of self at this point nobody's stopping me i'm not talking to anybody about this because i got a problem and i got to move on it now and that's the way this thing starts working right and it says still the play doesn't suit him because all of a sudden he walks away from the water fountain kind of looking at me like this whatever damn still didn't get it now i'm still scared to death because he's not picking up on what i need him to see admitting i may be somewhat at fault i am sure that mary went over there to him and told him a pack of lies because she's out to get my job she has never liked me in the first place and i have gossiped a bit about her at work but we're going to ignore that right now see that's where all that fear starts being driven by that person at work that you're talking trash about and all of a sudden they walk out of the office with your boss and they both look at you and go that's all it takes man you're like what's that what the heck was that oh they were in there talking about me and then we kicked into this delusion just like that when it says yeah baby i got it what it's when it says that we selfishness and self-centered that we think is the root of our troubles we are driven by a hundred forms it could have said a thousand forms a hundred forms of fear fear is not the root of my problem fear self-delusion self-seeking self-pity we step on the toes of our fellows they retaliate seeming without provocation but we invariably find it sometime in the past we made a decision based on self which later placed me in the position to be hurt see they walked out of the office together there's mary i can't stand that woman please tell me you work with some people you can't stand please please assure me that there are people in life you can't stand okay i gotta be sure i'm not talking to pta okay here we go we are alcoholics you know what i mean it's okay to say that out loud it is okay and um and so you know mary comes out and they when they give me that head knot oh that conversation was about me oh i know it and nobody's moving me off the mark and i love it when when it says we are driven by a hundred forms of fear it could have said a thousand forms of fear i call it a gut punch how many of you guys have ever had somebody pocket dial you by accident and you're listening and you know better you shouldn't listen to a pocket doll it was an accident but all of a sudden you hear your name and then you're trying to make to what ha ha who is that other voice give me a second i'll recognize it you know and you can't stand it and then what do you got to do you got to go find that person and say so what what were you doing today see we're going to work it we're going to work to figure out what we got ha ha ha ha ha oh yeah i'm not the only one who suffers from alcoholism here and so it says so what the still the place still doesn't suit him admitting i may be somewhat at fault he's sure others are more to blame i become angry indignant and self-pity and indignant indignant means for all i've done for you so i am pissed off at you and once again that one goes like this boom boom boom i am mad everything i've done for that aa group they just turn their back on me right self-pity as nobody understands i'm new in this community and their aaa sucks anyway right i got i got a i got a cooker of a resentment at a club in uh uh uh in austin that um it's like i'm snake bit every time i walk in there and uh and and who do you think the problem is oh i'm sure it's me and so it says what is what is katie's basic trouble now here's where it really gets ugly basic trouble means underlying foundation is she really not a self-seeker even when trying to be kind and i swear the term we use now today in 2012 is people pleaser i'm a people pleaser well show me all the people you've pleased [Laughter] you know you are an attention sucker is what you are there is no people pleasing going on here in aaa trust me you are a self-centered suck-up trying to get what you want and uh and so you know and we use we use terminology that is therapeutic terminology and trust me i did my 10 years of therapeutic terminology and i'm not knocking it man i think therapy is a privilege but we can overuse it and uh and what we do is we tend to wrap our brains around what what what we are we are self-centered i don't think too much of myself i don't think too little of myself i only think about me like it or not man that's in my dna i can't i don't get rid of it without god's help and let me tell you that's on a daily basis that's why that 10th step is such a crucial step and so all of a sudden i'm trucking through life right and i've got this level of self-centeredness that's all over me and especially even when trying to be kind see that's when i'm blinded to it now i know when i'm working an angle on charlie parker oh come on welcome to marriage i mean come on everyone's always working an angle on their significant other that's just the way it works but the truth is is that one i'm it's obvious but when i'm trying to get something that i need that i don't even know i'm doing that good motive that kind person because i'm such a kind individual see and it's not that we're bad people or malicious i don't wake up and rub my grubby little hands together expecting to screw over on somebody i don't even know i'm doing it and so it says is katie not a victim which means i'm tricked or duped a victim of my own delusion that i can rest satisfaction and happiness out of this world if i only manage well and i did that you we can do that for a long long time in sobriety long long time i can tell you i did it sufficiently for 10 years and uh and well done honey no no no no i i still have one minute left mister i don't think so give me 45 more seconds you went 17 17 minutes and 23 seconds okay i got 20 you just ate up 21 seconds right there doing that okay okay okay so so the victim so i am tricked or duped by my own delusion not denial this is a disease of delusion that if i can get you guys to act right it's all going to go good now you can have it thank you darling nice job katie yes yeah it covered half a paragraph there that was awesome oh now he's going to be a smart ass yeah well well this is powerful powerful stuff sometimes we'll do a whole hour and really only get through with what we mean because we're still in what we mean now when we're asking this guy to turn his will in his life over the care of god we're just still talking about what we mean here and that thing lies what is his basic trouble what's the underlying principle of the way i'm operating that's got me in constant collision and it says that i'm a this is another one that leaped off the page at a time where it said is he not a victim of the delusion that he can rest and rest means seized by force it's the same word as wrestle that i can seize satisfaction and happiness out of this world if i just manage well and i was sitting there at 17 years sober and you couldn't have better described what was going on with me is i was busting my hump out here trying to get everything to go my way and i had this delusion that if i could just get everything to go my way but in the meantime i'm overdrawing and i'm blowing up marriages and i don't know why and you know that sort of thing and it says because it said isn't it evident to the rest of the players that these are the things you want that i'm out here trying to get everything to go my way and what's going to happen if you're in a play and we see somebody trying to get all the attention i'm going to go oh look mr director what about me you know and it says don't his actions make um each of them wish to retaliate snatching all they can get out of the show is he not even in his best moments a producer of confusion rather than harmony oh my god we're pounding that into sponsees now because so many times we'll do stuff to anyone we think we're a producer of harmony but why is it being a producer of confusion and i could tell story after story about it goes in to say our actor is self-centered egocentric it says that like ego and self are interchangeable all right and it's now in a lower case it doesn't mean that i think too much of myself or i think too little of myself i just think about me too much right you remember the guy last night that didn't even know that's me that self is on me like that alien you know from you know and and we go over to the first new paragraph on 62 it says selfishness self-centeredness that we think is the root of our troubles driven by a hundred forms of fear now mark used to say when i'm driven by fear when i'm i'm not choosing to act that way i'm driven by fear you know i broke up with a girl one time there was another boy over their house i was pretty sure of it and i went by there and i go around back to try to look at what second story apartment so i i climb up in a tree you know to look through the patio glass door to see if there's anybody let me tell you something i did not choose to climb that tree i was driven by fear and self-delusion and self-seeking and self-pity well she comes out on the patio to smoke a cigarette i'm standing in a tree wearing a white t-shirt and blue jeans and that's when those moments were going how did this happen you know is there a lower feeling in the world you know and it's just driven by i step on people's toes and they retaliate sometimes they hurt me seemingly without provocation right i didn't do nothing right they just went off on me you know but it says but we invariably find that some time in the past we've made decisions based on self which later placed me in a position to be harmed here's where it gets here's one of the biggest promises in the big book it says so our troubles we think and you know the we they're talking about are our founders the we a lot of times in the book it's not me i used to think when i plopped down five dollars for a big book i was part of we we is these people that are on the other side of recovery you know well you know like when we do the promises for the night step and they go are these extravagant promises and you got a guy with four days sobriety going we think not you're like really those are not extravagant promises for you you know anyway that's a whole nother topic but it says so our troubles we think are basically of our own making basically of our own making now why would that be a promise because if my prom problems are of y'alls making the only way i'm ever going to be okay is if i can get y'all to act right and i have very little experience getting everybody to act right if my problems are basically of my own making me and this power got a chance of working things out right it's a huge shift and it says they arise out of ourselves and the alcoholic is an extreme example of self-will run riot though he usually doesn't think so talk about a drunk trap i always draw this if this banner up here was the entire population of the united states all right and this that's where everybody is now what we're going to do is we're going to get everybody who is self will run riot and we're going to build a little fenced in area right there right there little chain lake fence area right there we're going to take everybody from the country that self will run riot we're going to run them into this pen right here okay now we're going to go into the fenced in area and we're going to pluck out the extreme examples of self will run riot welcome to alcoholics tonight and it says so we usually don't think so i don't even think i belong in the fence right i think when they come to get me it's because they recognize that i don't belong in there and they're coming to get me because even the other people they're self-willing right are going oh my god this guy you know that's what it says when it says an extreme example of self-will run right though i usually don't think so because i can't see it because of my motives and my delusion and all that sort of thing and it says above everything we must be rid of this selfishness mark houston looked me dead in the eye at this point in the book and he goes what does above everything mean to you charlie isn't it interesting that it says above everything we've got to be rid of the selfishness it doesn't even say above everything we've got to stop drinking vodka it says above everything we've got to be rid of themselves turns out vodka never was the problem selfishness and self-centeredness was the problem and vodka was the only thing i ever found that eased the pain and the discomfort of a life based completely on self that's why when i stop drinking i don't get okay that's why when i stop drinking i eventually get so uncomfortable that i need some relief and it says we must or it kills us now we're at the end of what we mean now it says remember just what do we mean and what are we doing it says god makes that possible that's why it's in step three because i can't have this conversation with somebody and then stand up from it and go by god i believe those folks from texas were right when they were saying that stuff but i have got to be less self-centered i'm going to go out and be less self-centered i says i can't wish it away anymore i could alcohol because it's in my dna my initial reaction to everything is selfish and self-centered now it may not be what comes out of my mouth now but my first thought is always how's this going to affect me right how's this going to affect me how's this going to affect me i could tell you stories that would be very embarrassing but it says and there often seems no way of entirely getting rid of self without god's aid many of us had moral and philosophical convictions galore but i couldn't live up to him even if i'd like to when i'm blocked by self and the chatter of a thousand monkeys up in my head you can't tell me to turn it over you can't tell me to pause when agitated or doubtful you know how about acceptance you know well acceptance is the key i didn't realize that for a long time when i was doing all that slogan slinging i was expecting people telling me to just go straight to acceptance when i'm blocked it's like tell it's like wanting to work the promises and hope that the steps will come true you know acceptance the pause being able to turn over those are byproducts of work in this process but you can't just tell me you know like when i was up in that tree you couldn't go you just need to turn that over you know really just what do you mean by that and just what do we do you know so here it says neither can i reduce my self-centeredness much by wishing or trying on my own power we had to have god's help that's why it's in step three it's that i can't get rid of this level of self-centeredness and selfishness that i got in my life on my own power i've got to have god's help the reason they're putting this is they're still trying to drive me to this power you know try not only is this the root of your problem but you can't do a darn thing about it this is the way you're going to roll and you're going to keep winding up in jackpots and not being able to like when i said i kept hitting the wall at four and a half years sober and seven years sober i thought it was the failure of alcoholics anonymous i didn't have anybody telling me charlie you're not running up against the failure of aaa you're running up against the failure of self-will this is what constant collision looks like is you're going to blow up this marriage you're going to back up for 10 minutes and get into another relationship and you're going to blow that one up and it's going to keep happening like that so that's the end of what we mean right now it rolls into what we do and this is what i call the deal it says this is the how and why of it first of all we had to quit playing god really why would i want to do that what are the next three words it didn't work right if it's working out real good for you rock on you know we got nothing for you but if you keep finding yourself in jackpot after jackpot it says i gotta quit playing god well how do i play god one of the ways i play god is that i know how everything needs to go i need to know how i know how randy needs to be i definitely know how katie could be and i can tell you when she falls short of the mark regularly you know and and i can tell you how business needs to be and i can tell you how the group needs to be now the rules might change from yesterday to today you know and what pleased me yesterday might really hack me off today and i may not be able to issue a memo telling you when you need to change your behavior but i'll tell you when you've disappointed me you know and it says i gotta quit because that's me playing god now not only now i'd like for you to disregard that i haven't don't have a long history of making brilliant choices in my life because i really know how it needs to go today you know and i have plenty of examples where in my past i didn't get what i want and it wound up being wonderful or i got what i want and it was awful but that doesn't convince me because i still think i kind of know how things need to go that's me playing god right and it says next we decided i used to think that the third step decision was in the third step prayer all that is is a reiteration of this decision we make here at the bottom of page 62 and it says next we decided that hereafter in this drama of life god's going to be our director now this place got a director i'm just supposed to stand on the line and say my words right it says he's the principal the head of the company and i'm his agent empowered to act on his behalf but i'm not running things he's the father we are his children i like to say that when i've taken this deal in step three i am no longer in management and i can't tell you how many times and tom said it this morning i can't tell you how many times where i've said you know what that's a management level decision and i'm no longer in management right i don't know how that's supposed to go it's a very freeing thing it's his most good ideas are simple and this concept was the keystone of the new and triumphant arch through which we passed to freedom there's a thing on back on page 46 where it says god doesn't make too hard at terms for those that seek him here's the terms right here it says when we've sincerely took such a position what position the position that god's in charge and that suits me just fine when i sincerely take that position and all sorts of remarkable things happen it says being all-powerful here's the terms he provided what i needed under two conditions if i keep close to him and perform his work well i need a real simple deal and that's my deal that's the terms of my deal with god now is that he's going to give me what i need if i stay close to him and perform his work well well it turns out i can't stay close to him until i get close to him and the way we get close to him is in steps four through nine removing what's blocking me from the power it's like there's a pipeline between me and god and my pipe is clogged up with resentment and fear and anger and guilt and remorse and worry and all that sort of thing and we're in this process of four through nine we're going to remove what's blocking me from this power and then my job is stand close to him in 10 and 11. he says if i stay close to him work with his kids he'll provide what i need right pretty simple deal and it says established on such a footing doesn't footing mean the same thing as bases this is when i'm established on this footing i be i become less and less interested in ourselves i like to point out to my sponsors it doesn't say self is going to go away because if i think that i'm never going to have to do a 10th step the 10th and 11th step imply that i'm going to foul up you know but it says i become less and less interested in myself more and more i become interested in seeing what i can contribute to life give give give that becomes the new theme and it says as i feel new power flow him as i enjoy peace of mind as i discover i can face life successfully as i become conscious of his presence that's huge it's not a faith in god or a belief in god it's a consciousness of god it's something that's walking around with me now it's part of my way of thinking about the way i roll is it says i'm conscious of god's presence i begin to lose my fear of today tomorrow or the hereafter then we roll into the third step prayer and it says we were now at step three now i've got enough information to be convinced that my life run on self-will can hardly be a success and now the third step prayer means something to me because the first time i read the third step prayer it just sounded like a bunch of churchy talk to me you know i'm down on my knees with a grown man i mean you know i'm feeling really uncomfortable anyway and we're saying stuff like relieve me of the bondage of self well now that's got some meat on the bone right i'm so wrapped up in self that i don't even see what's causing all this conflict with people and it says god i offer myself to you to build with me and do with me as you will relieve me of the bondage of self that i can better do your will in that interesting it doesn't say relieve me of the bondage itself so i can get back to work and make a bunch of money or that i can you know be feel better it's just so i can better do god's will take away my difficulties why so i can chill in the lazy boy and watch the cowboys know it says that victory over them would bear witness to those i would help of his power his love and his way of life may i do your will always and then you know and it goes you know so it says we thought well before taking this step making sure we were ready that we could at last abandon ourselves utterly to him when we talk about the second surrender n.a.a how am i doing i'm giving you an extra minute when we talk about the second surrender in a the first surrender is the surrender to alcohol and whatever outside issues are kicking my tail but the huge one is the surrender itself and a lot of us don't ever experience it and mark used to say handed me this book and expected me to get it it's like handing me the flight manual to an f-16 and then said okay after you read this chad we got one out here in the parking lot try not to hurt yourself or anybody else you know while you're while you're flying i need somebody to break this stuff down for me but when i say that the big book takes a huge right turn on page 60 and i missed it for a long time i mean it because when we get one of those eight step tenth step promises where it says we find that our new attitude toward liquor has been given us without any thought or effort on our part he said what do you mean without any thought or effort on my part i've been working my tail off i'm doing inventory i'm making a mess but none of that effort was towards alcohol all that effort was about reduction of self tearing up the debris which has accumulated out of my effort to live life on self will and run the show myself looking at common manifestations of self in the fourth step and all of a sudden i pop up over here and i'm not obsessed with getting loaded anymore that's the miracle of it is in in reducing itself and raising my god consciousness up and reducing itself all of a sudden i don't have to get loaded anymore thanks a lot that was good honey uh okay so one of the things too that i got a couple of stories sometimes i think we're just so good at when you hear somebody else's story you can tie in what self-centeredness looks like because it trusts me it is not easy to see i mean the heart disease is so delusional i am so blinded by my own level of self-centeredness and i think that's why god gave us as drunks the power to help another drunk out and i can see it clearly in you i mean clearly in you but i absolutely cannot see it in myself now sometimes i can don't don't let that trick your ego you know every once while when i see self-centeredness i think uh-huh you know i i've obviously arrived now and now i've got you know i can see it every time i can't and uh i can tell a sponsee something call my sponsor upset about something she takes me right back almost to the exact situation that i just told that swansea and that's 27 years sober you know i mean i'd like to think that i had you know you just kind of go whatever man it is a surprise to me but on the bottom of page 25 i love this line it says if you are as serious alcoholic as we were which i'm assuming we're all willing to admit we're serious alcoholics we believe there is no middle of the road solution and that's where the term came from middle of the road you know aaa and all of this and i i i don't know how to i don't know how i feel on that heck i was middle of the road i didn't realize i hitched my wagon the middle of the road a.a i didn't realize that i wasn't being helpful i thought i was once again another delusion you know and me and my my one odd buddy you know go round and round about that one you know i didn't know i was and and you know oh i could get off on a whole tangent but we're not at a big book weekend right we have one one hour and 20 minutes okay we were in a position where life had become impossible anybody in your sobriety been in that spot absolutely where life has become impossible and if we had passed into the region from which there is no return through human aid my self-centeredness there's no return from human aid charlie can begin to behave exactly how i want him to and i'll find something else that bugs me no doubt about it you give an alcoholic a 200 000 job and in less than six months they'll be complaining about how they're taking advantage of them and the other guy's getting way better deal than i'm getting you know the ego of the alcoholic rebuilds at an astonishing rate always this is not when we drink when we don't drink remember my problem is when i don't drink you know when i drink it's pretty much obvious what's going to happen it's it's insanity but when i don't drink i'm still that same tornado running through the lives of others we had but two alternatives one was to go on to the bitter end blotting out the consciousness of our intolerable situation as best we could drunk or sober and the other was to accept spiritual help and that's the level of second surrender to this piece that we're talking about you know and so you know and you you heard charlie's story you know that it took his plane crash you'll hear it my story what happened i don't i don't think it has to be that tragic i don't think it has to be near death experience i think the loss of a job i think a breakup i think it can be a lot of things that can cause me to feel that i you know that my life is impossible and uh had you put a lie detector test in my life in my marriage to my husband and our children in our little world we created i would have told you life was great and it really was to me until the bottom fell out and i had no safety net i didn't know that and and and i think that that's one of the beauties the book says i will not be inspired at all times the book tells me in hundreds of places if you rest on your laurels danger man danger is all around be very very careful of this and in the 10th step it says to watch for not to wait but to watch for these things because they are going to creep up i suffer from a disease that is just sitting there waiting to kick my butt constantly and it's that level of self-centeredness that i am blinded to in my own self um i was as our buddy mark used to say and i'm telling you we give mark so much praise but you got to understand that you take two hard-headed egotistical alcoholics with time and this guy managed to get through that that in itself was nothing short of a miracle because see when you got time you're the hardest person in the world to talk to because you already know everything and i say you meaning me and you i had one girl take real issue with me using the term you and i thought whatever you know you means me okay i mean i'm talking this from experience and i'm not gonna therapeutically always say it right because we're sitting in here it's like my buddy mike lorenz says we don't need to be fighting in the lifeboat matter of fact we don't shoot our wounded we pray they don't shoot themselves you know and and we're all in this deal trying to save each other's life and i have no i have written more inventory on a a members than i have ever written on family members and i hope i'm in the same room full of people that feel the same way you know what i mean you can get under my skin that fast boy you know and so that's what i'm talking about this ego is so on defense you know i don't like what he's saying and i kind of like what he's saying well i don't like what they say well i disagree with that this chatter just goes on and on and on and today what i've learned is it's it's kind of like clouds i just it just makes me chuckle sometimes i am so judgmental and i have such a such a sense of entitlement hey i was i was exercising in austin we had this beautiful hike and bike trail and and it's fabulous and you know you're supposed to run on the right and you come back on the left i mean everybody knows that it's like cars you know you go on this thing and these two men stopped one they saw each other and they just and they just planted themselves right in the middle of the trail and i'm coming and i'm seeing them from a distance i don't mean to be like this but the next thing you go you go really really so you're just gonna stomp your butt right there in the middle of the trail and then i watch people have to go around them everybody's got to go around them and between me and them i had to dig into my toolkit because that was none of my business but every every ounce of my being wanted to stop the old earbuds out and go hey guys could you kind of move over a little bit thank you you know in my life that's me on a daily basis because i am the police of everybody and and it's so funny because once again and not to knock any other 12-step program that's the root of my problem if everyone would do as i wished i'd be fine so it's all to make me feel okay because i know everyone else wanted to ask those two guys to move i'll do it and uh so i'm gonna tell this quick little story well there's two of them when we're talking about this level of self-centeredness i always refer to what i call the list and uh charlie has uh we've been best friends forever i was in the fitness business for 30 years and charlie when i met him has always fluctuated in his weight and so we just became fast gym buddies and exercise buddies and we just loved each other i was 26 he was 28 my husband loved him we we just had a great relationship and and so um now that we're married i'm a i take a little bit more concern about his health i it's not got not got a thing to do with his appearance it's his health i worry about right i want to grow old with this guy it doesn't look it doesn't make him look good and so he has to every once in awhile take these pills uh because if he eats too much his feet swell or something burns or something happens one time something happens but yeah it's scout and so he has the pill bottle sitting out on the counter and i thought has he been taking those pills and i said honey what why are your gout pills out and he goes oh well what did you say you said i said i i took one oh i had to take one and and i said why didn't you say something to me he goes i i just didn't want to worry and i went oh i think that's on the list but i bet that's about third on the list i said the first thing on the list is you didn't want to tell me because you don't want to take responsibility and you don't want to eat better and you knew that you didn't fulfill that commitment and so you didn't want to take the heat that was going to come and i swear he is just stepping out of the shower you know he was just expecting to dry off and just pass through this deal but his first reaction was i didn't want to worry you oh he's so kind thank you thank you for that honey oh and that's the line word says isn't it evident all the rest of the players what he wants and don't they wish to snatch and retaliate have you ever had your husband or wife say i just didn't want to worry you oh so you've become this kind caring loving individual now when you're scared and i love the way she'll say that's on the list and we do that i see what sponsors all the time where they they'll get they'll tell me why they did something i think that's about number five from why you did it you know there's about four reasons that are all self-centered yeah and then and then there's there's two lines before i end with this this great story yeah i'm keeping i act i wrote i wrote times no i am not and i know you're keeping an eye on that and it ain't happening no sir no sir uh okay so on page 62 where it says moral and philosophical convictions galore we couldn't live up to them no matter how hard we tried i have to tell you guys you know we got my my sponsor loves to remind me katie we got two alcoholics living in that house there's not just one alcoholic see when i call her i'm talking about charlie's alcoholism all the time and you know and we got to realize you know and that's the other thing you know man i write a ton of inventory on charlie i don't get a free pass when it says resentment is the number one offender it kills more alcoholics than anything else it kills marriages because if i don't write inventory on charlie it doesn't have an asterisk that says unless it's your husband or your wife i have to write inventory on this to get free of it otherwise i'm just sitting there stuffing it until something happens and i have a million dollar reaction over something ridiculous and when it says moral i want to be the best wife i can i want to be the best aaa member i can't i don't want to be the best mother i can book warns me i'm going to fall short in every area how many of y'all would consider yourselves falling pretty short certain times with your children oh absolutely and and i don't want to be that way but i will fall short and with my husband we do a lot of speaking together and we were having some problems just personalities clashing and and whatever and him being too this and his talk and me being to this in my talk and i remember sitting out there thinking i hope he falls off the stage i hope he just lays an egg right there and uh and i mean i went and i beelined it and called my sponsor i said i couldn't believe it when those voices came in my head i am way more danger than i think i am you know and i don't get to have that i don't ha i don't get to have that opportunity to feel that way and think about that while i'm uh you know working this program and so now here's a quick story okay my 22 year old son was verdict's still out is he one of us is he not i i can't figure it out and you guys know exactly what i'm talking about and so it he he has taken a very hard left uh in his teenage years and it doesn't look good and so he gets he turns his life around he meets this fabulous girl when they're 17 years old oh my god she is absolutely changing his life given sufficient reason maybe can stop or moderate right i'm watching everything because he's one he's the one i'm watching like a hawk my oldest daughter clearly is uh untreated that one on and um and so uh we've got we're watching sam and all of a sudden he and this little girl been together five years they're engaged they've been engaged six months she shows up pregnant i'm like darn it we almost made it to the finish line you know i would have liked to have seen them try to get married then have the baby but well we're doing it backwards and they lived in a kind of rotten part of town in austin but when it was just them i was okay with that they had a registered sex offender in the duplex next door wasn't really excited about that and state of texas the way you know is the guy's got to knock on the door and say that's what he is and you know whatever and all of a sudden i find out she's pregnant well they my grandbaby is not living next to a sex offender okay there no sir so i come to charlie and i said listen honey you're the one with all the good credit so would you be willing to sign for a house for these kids because in texas right now you can pick up a house pretty good and would you be willing to sign for a house for these kids and maybe put like a ten thousand dollar uh amount of money down and we can get them a really cute little house and we can get them out of that rotten park how we can grow up and get our grand baby grow up in a good neighborhood yeah payment will be less it'll all be good and he says okay he goes you know what and i know now he's got some power i know i really have all the power but i know he thinks he's got the power so he says how about um you go and look for about a 75 000 house okay okay i'll do that so we go and we all get in the car we go look he's not with us we find a 75 000 house and you know really they are they're okay i mean they're kind of trashy and um they're but they're okay and so the realtor i think well what does 85 000 look like and the realtor shows me 85 85's a little nicer than 75 did you know that yeah well it really is and and then you have to sit there and be quiet he is he is told to be quiet through this story and uh so uh i come home and i said honey you know what 85 000 houses look a little bit nicer than 75 000 houses are you okay with that he goes you know kitty i am blah blah blah blah blah well a little bit of work on my part you know and then all of a sudden he goes okay fine so you know a couple weeks go by now this is a long process and then i i start to realize that 95 000 houses look a lot better than an 85 000 house now i know i'm working him over come on i mean come on wives yes are you with me husbands you do the same thing don't act like you don't and so i i so i come back and i told charlie i said now 95 000 house we don't have to do any work to this house and it would be easier for you just to put 20 000 down and so now i got the kids going with me and they're just like little ducklings just following me and now let me tell you what else i've done because when i run the show i run the show i have convinced the realtor to give me his little key that's like totally against his rules but i'm wearing him out and he just hands it to me because i'm that kind of gal i'll wear yeah you just give it to me fine okay i can lose my license but you are a pain in the neck so there just take my key and i mean i am going into any house that's got a force of sale sign on it you know i just and uh and i'm calling my girlfriend just in case there's a murderer in there because every once in a while you never know and so by the time this thing is said and done i have found a hundred and twenty five thousand dollar house that is fabulous and charlie is going to put twenty thousand dollars down i took four months and my little my little daughter-in-law is just getting gigantic she was 94 pounds when she got pregnant she is just huge right babies out here they're waddling around we are getting ready to sign on the dotted line and i have worked my husband over but i've gotten what i needed pretty good huh all of a sudden sam goes we're getting ready the realtors coming over we're gonna sign on the dotted line these kids are walking into the cutest house brand new floors oh my god it is fabulous and uh sam goes well mom how much is the house payment going to be because you know ashley's going part time after the baby blah blah blah blah blah i said well you know what you can go online you can just click it right in there and you can figure out what the payment is going to be and all of a sudden i click all the numbers and i looked at him i said tim it's gonna be twelve hundred dollars he looks at me goes mom i can't afford twelve hundred dollars and he loses it and he cries and you mothers know when the boys cry it's terrible the girls cry it's bad but the boy's crying eats my lunch he flies out of the house ashley's got her face buried and charlie's shoulder balling and i became the producer of confusion rather than harmony it never occurred to me that they could not afford that house never even occurred to me i thought i was just working charlie over so i go outside and my son is standing there he's smoking a cigarette and he's doing all this and he goes you know mom he goes i'm getting ready to be a father man and i'm trying to do this deal and i said and so this is what i throw out there once again isn't it evident to all the rest players what she wants i go okay i'll tell you what i'll help you pay for the house i'll i'll make half the payment well i don't want to make half the payment i don't even want to put 20 bucks towards the payment are y'all with me on this i'm kind of sick of raising my children after they're old enough to raise their cells you know what i mean and i just throw that out there and i hear my voice go you don't want to do that too bad you're going to say it anyway because i'm driven by that fear he goes mom i don't want your help i thought that'd sound great but not when he's crying it doesn't sound so good and so i come in the house and i take charlie's husband you just buy the whole house just write a check for the whole thing and he goes i am not going to do that you see me desperately trying to fix the disaster i've done well long story short they leave we've calmed everybody down i've told them how sorry i am for taking this deal over running the whole show and i i the next morning i called my son and i said how are y'all doing he goes you know mom we're actually doing pretty good he said we've realized we're going to stay you know next to the sex offender in crack town oh good lovely and um and you know we've told the landlord we're going to stay an extra six months and we're going to reevaluate this after the baby comes and i'm heartbroken right i'm not doing well i call my sponsor and she says under no circumstances are you to touch this do nothing you have no experience in doing nothing i don't think you do either but i got no experience in doing nothing i'm always doing something and uh so i do nothing for about three months and all of a sudden the realtors got me on this auto page where houses come across my computer and this house pops up that's eighty five thousand dollars and i call my sponsor and i said would you go with me to look at it guys i'm 26 years sober i asked him my sponsor i i can't i cannot be trusted sometimes and she said absolutely we walked in we saw that house it was unbelievable and i we paid full price for it and charlie put twenty thousand dollars down their little house payment 722 a month which was workable deal for them and the house is on a cul-de-sac three of the neighbors that live on that cul-de-sac have lived there for 20 years they absolutely love the children my grandson is there this most amazing house and you know what i believe i believe that amazing house was there when i was screwing the deal up i was so blinded to it it wasn't like i needed to wait for god to bring me that one see today what i understand is god had me about four or five of those damn things i just wasn't looking see i was i had my mind set on 125 000 house and the insanity of that and that's what we're talking about i think every day once i wake up i see god's hand in everything but when i'm asleep i can't see anything because i'm driven to go in that direction though the one last thing i wanted to say and i am going to give you possibly two or three minutes honey uh the um the the old ideas you know the book says we had old ideas we had to let go of them absolutely uh i don't know about you guys but a lot of people in aaa myself included did not understand what old ideas were because some old ideas are not bad see that's where i got all mixed up it's it a good work ethic is a good old idea right you should work hard for what you got and if you believe you're the person who needs to work hard and then you get a sponsee that's lazy well you just want to kill them you know what i mean and so but if that work ethic starts to interfere with your family then it becomes not a good not a good healthy worth work ethic so don't lose sight of the fact that when you're doing the inventory process one of the beauties is we're not only looking for the level of self-centeredness that is in the fourth column in that third column is all my old ideas and i just asked the question to my sponsees how does it affect your self-esteem how does it affect your prime how does it affect your ambitions i don't want to just know the word i want to know how because we got to know how katie shows up that causes my failure that's it i know and i gave you i gave him three minutes i'm really not that nice she ran out of stuff to say i did no that's not it that was wonderful you know i just want to tell you a couple of things one of the things that i've been working on is a hub theory with step three if selfishness and self-centeredness is the root of my problem and they've got this deal that i made on page 68 the book is constantly going to be taking me back to the deal it's going to constantly be taken and throughout the book you keep coming across lines where it says constantly saying to ourselves many times each day thy will not mind be done saying to ourselves many times ago um a constant thought of others and you know is it and if i miss self as the root of my problem what did i do when i got to the fourth step and it said being convinced that self manifested in various ways is what had defeated us we considered self's common manifestations on that basis the fourth step is just considering the common manifestations of self if you're telling me self is what's been kicking my butt all this time how does it show up how does it manifest how does and it's as well resentment as the number one offender as a manifestation of self fear as a manifestation of self sex inventory harms to others when you get to the eighth and ninth step it says we go out and attempt to sweep away the debris which is accumulated out of our effort to live life on self-will and run the show ourselves it's like delta airlines has all these hub lines back to atlanta it's like throughout the book it's going to constantly be taking me back to the deal that i made and the thing i've got to tell you as you start working on selfishness and self-centeredness like katie said the first place it becomes obvious is in others right you're going to see it everywhere out there i'm blind to it here one of the things we talk about i love to watch the receiving lives after a talk because you want to see manifestations of itself watch the people that'll come up around the whole line and come up and go i just want to say thank you i don't like standing in lines and you're like really really so i guess these are all the people that like standing in line you know i mean could there be a little self-centeredness there you know story stealing is one of my favorites as a manifestation of self oh my god my family is rampant with it if you say something what happens with me a lot being as self-centered as i am is if you start to tell me a story it reminds me of one of my stories that is much more interesting than your story you know and we call it story stealing that's where you come up to me we were at a party one time this guy comes up he goes i'm getting ready to go to costa rica and i go oh costa rica where i called dude i said i've been to costa rica three times i went down there with ten of my buddies we went whitewater rafting and played golf stayed at the melia cottage played all that stuff because they had a great time riding motorcycles went around the coffee plantations and then i turned around and walked off right now this poor guy didn't get to tell his costa rica story because i stole it right and then you know and if it wasn't for katie been so generous with her input i wouldn't have seen that i did it you know because she has to stand there go i'll listen to your costa rica store you know and my family there's nothing i can say that doesn't remind my sister of something about her her husband or one of her three boys so she steals every story that comes up you know and and my sister gave a woodpecker a headache after about 45 minutes but when you start seeing it that's all we're doing in sponsorship is taking it back to manifestations itself manifestations itself how did you set the ball i've got to have accountability with people i've got to have somebody that's going to be taking me back to how did you set the ball rolling where did you make decisions based on self that placed you in a position to be harmed how are you a confuser of a producer or confusion rather than harmony and that sort of thing it changes the whole basis of my work when i say it and i missed it for 17 years it's you can't spend too much time in pages 60 to 63. it needs to be worn out in the book it needs i mean it's where we we my guys we live at 60 to 63 84 to 88 katie rock we did great thank you a lot everybody [Applause] [Music] thanks for listening i hope you enjoyed the podcast sobercast is ad-free and we'd like your help in order to keep it that

DJBLydDCTEQ | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DJBLydDCTEQ | Treatise on Good Works | Martin Luther | Christianity - Other | Book | English | 2/3 | section 14 of a treatise on good works this is librivox recording all librivox recordings are in the public domain for more information or to volunteer please visit librivox.org recording by philip nautis i treat us on good works by martin luther translated by johann michael roy tretus 28 through 31 28 further works of this commandment are that we shall not swear curse lie deceive and conjure with the holy name of god and otherwise misuse it which are very simple matters and well known to everyone being the sins which have been almost exclusively preached and proclaimed under this commandment these also include that we shall prevent others from making sinful use of god's name by lying swearing deceiving cursing conjuring and otherwise here and again much occasion is given for doing good and warding off evil but the greatest most difficult work of this commandment is to protect the holy name of god against all who misuse it in a spiritual manner and proclaim it to all men for it is not enough that i for myself and in myself praise and call upon god's name and prosperity and adversity i am a step forth and for the sake of god's honor and name bring upon myself the enmity of all men as christ said to his disciples ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake here we must provoked anger father mother and the best of friends here we must strive against spiritual and temporal powers and be accused of disobedience here we must stir up against us the rich learned holy and all that is of repute in the world and although this is especially the duty of those who are commanded to preach god's word yet every christian is also obliged to do so when time and place demand for we must for the holy name of god risk and give up all that we have it can do and show by our deeds that we love god and his name his honor and his praise above all things and trust him above all things and expect good from him thereby confessing that we regard him as the highest good for the sake of which we let go and give up all other goods 29 here we must first of all resist all wrong where truth or righteousness suffers violence or need and dare make no distinction of persons as some do who fight most actively and busily against the wrong which is done to the rich the powerful and their own friends but when it is done to the poor or the despise or their own enemy they are quiet and patient these see the name and the honor of god not as it is but through a painted glass and measure truth or righteousness according to the persons and do not consider the deceiving eye which looks more on the person than on the thing these are hypocrites wherein and have only the appearance of defending the truth for they well know that there is no danger when one helps the rich the powerful the learned and one's own friends and can in turn enjoy the protection and be honored by them thus it is very easy to fight against the wrong which is done to popes kings princes bishops and other bigwigs here each wants to be the most pious where there's no great need oh how sly is here the deceitful adam with his demand how finely does he cover his greed of profit with the name of truth and righteousness and god's honor but when something happens to a poor and insignificant man there the deceitful eye does not find much profit but cannot help seeing the disfavor of the powerful therefore he lets the poor man remain unhelped and who could tell the extent of this vice in christendom god says in the 82nd psalm how long will ye judge unjustly and accept the persons of the wicked judge the matter of the poor and fatherless demand justice for the poor and needy deliver the poor and rid the forsaken out of the hand of the wicked but it is not done and therefore the text continues they know not neither will they understand they walk on in darkness that is the truth they do not see but they stop at the reputation of the great however unrighteous they are and do not consider the poor however righteous they are 30. see here would be many good works for the greater portion of their powerful rich and friends do injustice and oppress the poor the lowly and their own opponents and the greater the men the worse the deeds and where we cannot by force prevent and help the truth we should at least confess it and do what we can with words not take the part of the righteous not approve them but speak the truth boldly what would help a man if he did all manner of good made pilgrimages to rome and to all holy places acquired all indulgences built all churches and endowed houses if he were found guilty of sin against the name in honor of god not speaking of them and neglecting them and regarding his possessions honor favor and friends more than the truth which is god's name in honor or who is he before whose door and into whose house such good works do not daily come so that he would have no need to travel far or to ask after good works and if we consider the life of men how in every place men act so very rashly and lightly in this respect we must cry out with the prophet ominous homo madox all men are liars lie and deceive for the real good works they neglect and adorn and paint themselves with the most insignificant and want to be pious to mount to heaven in peaceful security but if you should say why does god do it alone himself since he can and knows how to help each one yes he can do it he does not want to do it alone he wants us to work with him and does us the honor to want to work his work with us and through us and if we are not willing to accept such honor he will after all perform the work alone and help the poor and those who were unwilling to help him and have despised the great honor of doing his work he will condemn us with the righteous because they have made a common cause with the righteous just as he alone is blessed but he wants to do us the honor and not be alone in his blessedness but have us to be blessed with him and if he were to do it alone his commandments would be given us in vain because no one would have occasion to exercise himself in the great works of these commandments and no one would test himself to see whether he regards god and his name as the highest good and for his sake risks everything 31 it also belongs to this work to resist all false seductive erroneous heretical doctrines every misuse of spiritual power now this is much higher for these use the holy name of god itself to fight against the name of god for this reason it seems a great thing and a dangerous thing to resist them because they assert that he who resists them resists god and all his saints and whose place they sit and whose power they use saying that christ is said of them he that heareth you heareth me and he that despiseth you despise me on which words they lean heavily become insolent and bold to say to do and to leave undone what they please put the ban a curse rob murder and practice all the wickedness in whatever way they please and can invent without any hindrance now christ did not mean that we should listen to them in everything that they might say and do but only then when they present to us his word the gospel not their word his work and not their work how else could we know whether their lies and sins were to be avoided there must be some rule to what extent we are to hear and to follow them and this rule cannot be given by them but must be established by god over them that it may serve us as a guide as we shall hear in the fourth commandment it must be indeed that even in the spiritual state of the greater part of preach false doctrine and misuse spiritual power so that thus occasion may be given us to do the works of this commandment and that we be tried to see what we are willing to do and to leave undone against such blasphemers for the sake of god's honor oh if we were god fearing in this manner how often would the knaves of officials have to decree their papal and episcopal ban in vain how weak the roman thunderbolts would become how often would many of one have to hold his tongue to whom the world must now give year how few preachers would be found in christendom but it has gotten the upper hand whatever they assert and in whatever way that it must be right here no one fights for god's name in honor and i hold that no greater or more frequent sin is done in external works than under this head it is a manner so high that few understand it and besides adorned with god's name and power dangerous to touch but the prophets of old were masters in this also the apostles especially saint paul who did not allow it to trouble them whether the highest or the lowest priest had said it or had done it in god's name or in his own they looked to the works and words and held them up to god's commandment no matter whether big john or little nick said it or whether they had done it in god's name or in man's and for this they had to die and of such dying there would be much more to say in our time for things are much worse now but christ and saint peter and paul must cover all this with their holy names so that no more infamous cover for infamy has been found on earth than the most holy and most blessed name of jesus christ one might shudder to be alive simply because of the misuse and blasphemy of the holy name of god through which if it shall last much longer we will as i fear openly worship the devil as a god so completely do spiritual authorities and the learned lack all understanding in these things it is high time that we pray god earnestly that he hollow his name but if it will cost blood and they who enjoy the inheritance of the holy martyrs and are one with their blood must again make martyrs of this more another time end of section 14 recording by philip nautis section 15 of a treatise on good works 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 philip natas a treatise on good works by martin luther translated by johann michael roy the third commandment subsections one through three one we have now seen how many good works there are in the second commandment which however are not good works in themselves unless they are done in faith in the assurance of divine favor and how much we do if we take heed to this commandment alone and how we alas busy ourselves much with other works which have no agreement at all with it now follows the third commandment thou shalt hollow the day of rest and the first commandment is prescribed our hearts attitude toward god and thoughts and the second that of our mouth and words in this third is prescribed our attitude toward god and works and it is the first and right table of moses on which these three commandments are written they govern man on the right side namely in the things which concern god and in which god has to do with man and man with god without the mediation of any creature the first of this commandment are plain and outward which we commonly called worship such as going to mass praying and hearing a sermon on holy days so understood there are a few works in this commandment and these if they're not done in the assurance of and with faith in god's favor are nothing as was said above hence it would also be a good thing if there were fewer saints days since in our times the works done on them are for the greater part worse than those of the workdays what with loafing gluttony and drunkenness gambling and all other evil deeds and then the mass and the sermon are listened to without edification the prayer is spoken without faith it almost happens that men think it is sufficient that we look on at the mass with our eyes hearing the preaching with our ears and say the prayers with their mouths is also formal and superficial we do not think that we might receive something out of the mass to our hearts learn and remember something out of the preaching seek desire and expect something in our prayer although in this matter the bishops and priests or they to whom the work of preaching is entrusted are most at fault because they do not preach the gospel and do not teach the people how they ought to look at the mass hear the preaching and pray therefore we will briefly explain these three works two in the mass it is necessary that we attend with our hearts also and we do attend when we exercise faith in our hearts here we must repeat the words of christ when he institutes the mass and says take and eat this is my body which is given for you in like manner over the cup take and drinkie all of it this is the new everlasting testament in my blood which is shed for you and for many for the remission of sins this shall ye do as often as you do it in remembrance of me in these words christ is made for himself memorial or anniversary to be daily observed in all christendom and is added to it a glorious rich great testament in which no interest money or temporal possessions are bequeathed and distributed by the forgiveness of all sins grace and mercy unto eternal life that all who come to this memorial shall have the same testament and then he died whereby this testament has become permanent and irrevocable and proof in evidence of which instead of letter and seal he has left with us his own body and blood under the bread and wine here is need that a man practice the first works of this commandment right well that he doubt not what christ has said is true and consider the testament sure so that he make not christ a liar for if you are present at mass and do not consider nor believe that here christ through his testament has bequeathed and given you forgiveness of all your sins what else is it then as if you said i do not know or do not believe that it is true that forgiveness of my sins here bequeathed and given me oh how many masses there are in the world at present but how few who hear them with such faith and benefit most grievously as god provoked to anger thereby for this reason also no one shall or can reap any benefit from the mass except he be in trouble of soul and long for divine mercy and desire to be rid of his sins or if he have an evil intention he must be changed during the mass and come to have a desire for this testament for this reason in olden times no open sinner was allowed to be present at the mass when this faith is rightly present the heart must be made joyful by the testament and grow warm and melt in god's love then we'll follow praise and thanksgiving with a pure heart from which the mass is called in greek eucharista that is thanksgiving because we praise and thank god for his comforting rich blessed testament just as he gives thanks praises and is joyful to whom a good friend has presented a thousand and more golden although christ fares like those who made several persons rich by their testament and these persons never think of them nor praise or thank them so are masses at present or merely celebrated without our knowing why or wherefore consequently we neither give thanks nor love nor praise remain parched and hard and have enough with our little prayer of this more another time three the sermon ought to be nothing else than the proclamation of this testament but who can hear it if no one preaches it now they who ought to preach it themselves do not know it this is why the sermons ramble off into other unprofitable stories and thus christ is forgotten while we fare like the man in second king seven we see our riches but do not enjoy them of which the preacher also says this is a great evil when god giveth man riches and giveth him not power to enjoy them so we look at the unnumbered masses and do not know whether the mass be a testament or what it be just as if it were any other common good work by itself oh god how exceedingly blind we are but where this is rightly preached it is necessary that it be diligently heard grasped retained often thought of and that the faith be thus strengthened against all the temptation of sin whether past or present or to come lo this is the only ceremony or practice which christ has instituted in which his christians shall assemble exercise themselves and keep it with one accord and this he did not make to be a mere work like other ceremonies but placed into it a rich exceeding great treasure to be offered and bestowed upon all who believe on this preaching should induce sinners to grieve over their sins and should kindle in them a longing for the treasure it must therefore be a grievous sin not to hear the gospel and to despise such a treasure and so rich a feast to which we are bitten but a much greater sin not to preach the gospel and let so many people who would gladly hear it perish since christ has so strictly commanded that the gospel and this testament be preached that he does not wish even the mass to be celebrated unless the gospel be preached as he says as oft as ye do this remember me that is as saint paul says ye shall preach of his death for this reason it is dreadful and horrible in our times to be a bishop pastor and preacher for no one any longer knows this testament to say nothing other preaching it although this is their highest and only duty and obligation how heavily must they give account for so many souls who must perish because of this lack in preaching end of section 15 recording by phillip notice section 16 of a treatise on good works this is a librivox recording all liberal box recordings are in the public domain for more information or to volunteer please visit librivox.org recording by philip natas our treatise on good works by martin luther translated by johann michael roy the third commandment subsections four through six we should pray not as the custom is counting many pages or beads but fixing our mind upon some pressing need desire it with all our earnestness and exercise faith and confidence toward god in the matter in such wise that we do not doubt that we shall be heard so also say bernard instructs his brethren and says dear brethren you shall by no means despise your prayer as if it were in vain for i tell you of a truth that before you've uttered the words the prayer is already recorded in heaven and you shall confidently expect from god one of two things either that your prayer will be granted or that if it will not be granted the granting of it would not be good for you prayer is therefore a special exercise of faith and faith makes the prayer so acceptable that either it will surely be granted or something better than we ask will be given instead so also says saint james let him who asketh of god and not waver in faith for if he wavers let not that man think that he shall receive anything of the lord this is a clear statement which says directly he who does not trust receives nothing neither that which he asks nor anything better and to call forth such faith christ himself has said in mark 11 therefore i say unto you what things soever ye desire when ye pray believe that you receive them and ye shall surely have them and luke 11 ask and it shall be given you seek and ye shall find knock and it shall be open unto you for every one that asketh receiveth and he that seeketh findeth and to him that knocketh shall be opened for what father is there of you who if his son shall ask bread will they give him a stone or if they ask a fish will they give him a serpent or if he ask an egg will he give him a scorpion but if you know how to give good gifts to your children and you yourselves are not naturally good how much more shall your father which is in heaven give a good spirit to all them that ask him five who is so hard and stone-like that such mighty words ought not to move him to pray with confidence joyfully and gladly but how many prayers must be reformed if we are to pray or right according to these words now indeed all churches and monastic houses are full of praying and singing but how does it happen that so little improvement and benefit results from it and things daily grow worse the reason is none other than that which st james indicates when he says you ask and receive not because ye ask amiss for where this faith and confidence is not the prayer the prayer is dead and nothing more than grievous labor and work if anything is given for it it is nonetheless only temporal benefit without any blessing and help for the soul nay to the great injury and blinding of souls so that they go their way babbling much with their mouths regarding of whether they receive or desire or trust in this belief the state of mind most oppressed to the exercise of faith and to the nature of prayer they remain heartened from this it follows that one who prays a right never doubts then his prayer is surely acceptable and heard although the very thing for which he prays be not given him for we are to lay our need before god in prayer but not prescribed to him a measure manner time or place but if he wills to give it to us better or in another way than we think we are to leave it to him for frequently we do not know what we pray as saint paul says in romans 8 and god works and gives above all that we understand as he says in ephesians 3 so that there be no doubt that the prayer is acceptable and heard and we yet leave to god the time place measure and limit he will surely do what is right they are the true worshipers who worship god in spirit and in truth for they who believe not that they will be heard sin upon the left hand against his commandment and go far astray with their unbelief but they who set a limit for him sin upon the other side and come too close with their tempting of god so he has forbidden both that we should err from his commandment neither to the left nor to the right that is neither with unbelief nor with tempting but with simple faith through straight road trusting him and yet setting him no bounds six thus we see that this commandment like the second is to be nothing else than a doing and keeping of the first commandment that is of faith trust confidence hope and love of god so that in all the commandments the first may be the captain and faith the chief work and the life of all other works without which as we said they cannot be good but if you say what if i cannot believe that my prayer is heard and accepted i answer for this very reason faith prayer and all other good works are commanded that you shall know what you can and what you cannot do and when you find that you cannot so believe and do then you are humbly to confess it to god and begin with a weak spark of faith and daily strengthen it more and more by exercising it in all of your living and doing for his touching infirmity of faith that is of the first and highest commandment there is no one on earth who does not have this good share of it and even the holy apostles in the gospel and especially saint peter were weak in faith so that they also prayed christ and said lord increase our faith and he very frequently rebukes them because they have so little faith therefore you shall not despair nor give up even if you find that you do not believe as firmly as you ought and wish in your prayer or in other works nay you shall thank god with all your heart that he thus reveals to you your weakness through which he daily teaches and admonishes you how much you need to exercise yourself and daily strengthen yourself in faith for how many do you see who habitually pray sing read work and seem to be great saints and yet never get so far as to know where they stand respect the chief work faith and so in their blindness they lead astray themselves and others think that they are very well off and unknowingly build on the sand of their works without any faith not on god's mercy and promise through a firm pure faith therefore however long we live we shall always have our hands full to remain with all our works and sufferings pupils are the first commandment of faith and not to cease on them no one knows what a great thing it is to trust god alone except he who attempts it with his works

visit librivox.org recording by phillip notice a treatise on good works by martin luther translated by johann micholroy the third commandment subsections seven through nine seven again if no other work were commanded would not prayer alone suffice to exercise the whole life of man and faith for this work the spiritual estate has been specially established as indeed in olden times some fathers prayed day and night nay there is no christian who does not have time to pray without ceasing but i mean the spiritual praying that is no one is so heartily burdened with his labor that if he will he can while working speak with god in his heart lay before him his need and that of other men ask for help make petition and in all this exercise and strengthen his faith this is what the lord means luke 18 when he says men are always to pray and never cease although in matthew 6 he forbids the use of much speaking and long prayers because of which he rebukes the hypocrites not because of the lengthy prayer of the lips is evil but because it is not that true prayer which can be made at all times and without the inner prayer of faith is nothing for we must also practice the outward prayer in his proper sense especially in mass as this commandment requires and wherever it is helpful to the inner prayer and faith whether in the house or in the field in this work or in that of which we have no time now to speak more for this belongs to the lord's prayer in which all petitions and spoken prayer are summed up in brief words eight where now are they who desire to know and to do good works let them either take prayer alone and rightly exercise themselves in faith and they will find that it is true as the holy fathers have said that there is no work like prayer mumbling with the mouth is easy or at least considered easy but with earnestness of heart to follow the words and deep devotion that is with desire and faith so that one earnestly desires what the words say and not doubt that it will be heard that is a great deed in god's eyes here the evil spirit hinders men with all his powers oh how often will he here prevent desire to pray not allow us to find time and place nay often also raise doubts whether a man is worthy to ask anything of such a majesty as god is and so confuse us that a man himself does not know whether it is really true that he prays or not whether it is possible that his prayer is acceptable and other such strange thoughts for the evil spirit knows well how powerful one man's truly believing prayer is and how it hurts him and how it benefits all men therefore he does not willingly let it happen when so tempted a man must indeed be wise not doubt that he and his prayer are indeed unworthy before such infinite majesty in no wise dare he trusts his worthiness or because of his unworthiness grow faint but he must heed god's command and cast this up to him and hold it before the devil and say because of my worthiness i do nothing because of my unworthiness i cease from nothing i pray and work only because god of his pure mercy has promised to hear and to be gracious to all unworthy men and not only promised it but he also most sternly on pain of his everlasting displeasure and wrath commanded us to pray to trust and to receive if it has not been too much for that high majesty so solemnly and highly to obligate his unworthy worms to pray to trust and receive from him how shall it be too much for me to take such command upon myself with all joy however worthy or unworthy i may be thus we must drive out the devil's suggestion with god's command thus will he cease in no other way whatever nine but what are the things which we must bring before almighty god and prayer and lamentation to exercise faith thereby answer first every man's own besetting need and trouble of which david says in psalm 32 thou art my refuge and all trouble which compasseth me about thou art my comfort to preserve me from all evil which surrounds me likewise in psalm 142 i cried unto the lord with my voice with my voice unto the lord did i make my supplication i poured out my complaint before him i showed before him my trouble in the mass a christian shall keep in mind the shortcomings or excesses he feels and pour out all these freely before god with weeping and groaning as woefully as he can as to his faithful father who is ready to help him and if you do not know or recognize your need or have no trouble then you shall know that you are in the worst possible plight for this is the greatest trouble that you find yourself so hardened hard-hearted and insensible that no trouble moves you there's no better mirror in which you see your need than simply the ten commandments in which you will find that you lack and what you should seek if therefore you find in yourself a weak faith small hope and little love toward god and that you do not praise and honor god but love your own honor and fame think much of the favor of men do not gladly hear mass and sermon are indolent in prayer in which things everyone has faults then you shall think more of these faults than of any bodily harm to goods honor and life and believe that they are worse than death and all mortal sickness these you shall earnestly label for god lament ask for help and with all confidence expect help and believe that you are heard and shall obtain help and mercy then go forward into the second table of the commandments and see how disobedient you've been and still are toward father and mother and all in authority how you sin against your neighbor with anger hatred and evil words how you're tempted to unchastity covetousness and injustice and word and deed against your neighbor and you will doubtless find that you are full of all need and misery and have reason enough to weep even drops of blood if you could end of section 17 recording by phillip nause section 18 of a treatise on good works this is a librivox recording

michael roy the third commandment subsections 10 through 13 10 but i knew well that many are so foolish as not to want to ask for such things unless they first be conscious that they are pure and believe that god hears no one who is a sinner all this is the work of those false preachers who teach men to begin not with faith and trust in god's favor but with their own works look you wretched man if you have a broken leg or the peril of death overtakes you you call upon god this saint and that and do not wait until your leg is healed or the danger is passed you are not so foolish as to think that god hears no one whose leg is broken or who is in bodily danger nay you believe that god shall hear most of all when you are in the greatest need and fear why then are you so foolish here where there is immeasurably greater need and eternal hurt and do not want to ask for faith hope love humility obedience chastity gentleness peace righteousness unless you are already free of all your unbelief doubt pride disobedience unchastity anger covetousness and unrighteousness although the more you find yourself lacking these things the more and more diligently you ought to pray or cry so blind are we with her bodily sickness and need we run to god with a soul sickness we run from him and are unwilling to come back before we are well exactly as if there could be one god who could help the body and another god who could help the soul or as if we would help ourselves in spiritual need although it really is greater than the bodily need such plan and counsel is of the devil not so my good man if you wish to be cured of sin you must not withdraw from god but run to him and pray with much more confidence than if a bodily need had overtaken you god is not hostile to sinners but only to unbelievers that is to such as this do not recognize and lament their sin nor seek help against it from god but in their own presumption wish first to purify themselves are unwilling to be in need of his grace and will not suffer him to be a god who gives to everyone and takes nothing in return 11. all this has been said of prayer for personal needs and of prayer in general but the prayer which really belongs to this commandment and is called a work of the holy day is far better and greater and is to be made for all christendom for all the need of all men a foe and friend especially for those who belong to the parish or bishopric thus saint paul commanded his disciple timothy exhort thee that thou see to it that prayers and intercessions be made for all men for kings and for all that are in authority that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty for this is good and acceptable in the sight of god our savior for this reason jeremiah in chapter 29 commanded the people of israel to pray for this city in the land of babylon because in the peace thereof they should have peace and barak won pray for the life of the king of babylon and for the life of his son that we may live in peace under the rule this common prayer is precious and the most powerful and it is for its sake that we come together for this reason also the church is called a house of prayer because in it we are a congregation with one accord to consider our need and the needs of all men present them before god and to call upon him for mercy but this must be done with heartfelt emotion and sincerity so that we feel in our hearts the need of all men and that we pray with true sympathy for them in true faith and confidence where such prayers are not made in the mass it were better to admit the mass for what sense is there in our coming together into a house of prayer which coming together shows that we should make a common prayer and petition for the entire congregation if we scatter these prayers and so distribute them that everyone prays only for himself and no one has regard for the other nor concerns himself for another's need how can that prayer be of help good acceptable and a common prayer or a work of the holy day and of the assembled congregation which they make who make their own petty prayers one for this the other for that and of nothing but self-seeking selfish prayers which god hates 12. a suggestion of this common prayer has been retained from ancient practice when at the end of the sermon the confession of sins is said and prayer is made on the pulpit for all christendom but this should not be the end of the matter as is now the custom in fashion it should be an exhortation to pray throughout the entire mass for such need as the preacher makes us feel and in order that we may pray worthily he first exhorts us because of our sin and therefore makes us humble this should be done as briefly as possible that then the entire congregation may confess their own sin and pray for everyone with earnestness and faith oh if god granted that any congregation at all heard mass and prayed in this way so that a common earnest heart cry of the entire people would rise up to god what immeasurable virtue and how would result from such a prayer what more terrible thing could happen to all the evil spirits what greater work could be done on earth whereby so many pious souls will be preserved so many sinners converted for indeed the christian church on earth has no greater power or work than such common prayer against everything that may oppose it this the evil spirit knows well and therefore he does all that he can to prevent such prayer gleefully he lets us go on building churches endowing many monastic houses making music reading singing observing many masses and multiplying ceremonies beyond all measure this does not grieve him nay he helps us do it that we may consider such things the very best and think that thereby we have done our whole duty but in that meanwhile this common effectual and fruitful prayer perishes and its omission is unnoticed because of such display in this he has done what he seeks for when prayer languishes no one will take anything from him and no one will withstand him but if he noticed that we wished to practice this prayer even if it were under a straw roof or in a pigsty he would indeed not endure it but would fear such a pigsty far more than all the high big and beautiful churches towers and bells in existence if such prayer be not in them it is indeed not a question of the places and buildings in which we assemble but only of this unconquerable prayer that we pray it and bring it before god as a truly common prayer end of section 18 recording by philip natas section 19

shred this on good works by martin luther translated by johann michael roy the third commandment subsections 13 through 15. the power of this prayer we see in the fact that in old end times abraham prayed for five cities sodom gomorrah etc genesis 18 and accomplished so much that if there had been ten righteous people in them two in every city god would not have destroyed them what then could many men do if they united in calling upon god earnestly and with sincere confidence so saint james also says dear brethren pray for one another that ye may be saved for the prayer of unrighteous man availeth much a prayer that perseveres and does not cease that is which does not cease asking ever more and more although what it asks is not immediately granted as some timid men do and as an example in this matter he says before us elijah the prophet who as a man he says as we are and prayed that it might not rain and it rained not by the space of three years and six months and he prayed again and it rained and everything became fruitful there are many texts and examples in the scriptures which are just to pray only that it be done with earnestness and faith as david says the eyes of the lord are upon the righteous and his ears are open unto their cry again the lord is nigh unto all them that call upon him and all that call upon him in truth why does the ad call upon him in truth because that is not prayer nor calling upon god when the mouth alone mumbles what should god do if you come along with your mouth book or pattern oster and think of nothing except that you may finish the words and complete the number so that if someone were to ask you what it all is about or what it was that you prayed for you yourself would not know for you had not thought of laying this or that matter before god or desiring it your only reason for praying is that you are commanded to pray this and so much and this you intend to do in full what wonder that thunder and lightning frequently set churches on fire because we thus make of the house of prayer a house of mockery that prayer in which we bring nothing before god and desire nothing from him but we should do as they do who wish to ask a favor of great princes these do not plan merely to babble a certain number of words for the prince would think they mocked him or were insane but they put the request very plainly and present their need earnestly and then leave it to his mercy and good confidence that he will grant it so we must deal with god of definite things namely mention some present need commend it to his mercy and goodwill and not doubt that it is heard for he has promised to hear such prayer which no earthly lord has done 14 we are masters in this form of prayer when we suffer bodily need when we are sick we call here upon saint christopher thereupon saint barbara we vow a pilgrimage to saint james to this place and that that we make earnest prayer have a good confidence in every good kind of prayer but when we were in our churches during mass we stand like images of saints know nothing to speak of or to lament the beads rattle the pages wrestle and the mouth babbles and that is all there is to it but if you ask what you shall speak of and lament in your prayer you can easily learn from the ten commandments and the lord's prayer open your eyes and look into your life and the life of all christians especially of the spiritual estate and you will find how faith hope love obedience chastity in every virtue languish and all manner of heinous vices reign what lack there is of good preachers and prelates how only knaves children fools and women rule then you will see that there were need every hour without ceasing to pray everywhere with tears of blood to god who is so terribly angry with men and it is true that it has never been more necessary to pray than at this time and it will be more so from now on to the end of the world if such terrible crimes do not move you to lament and complain do not permit yourself to be led astray by your rank station good works or prayer there is no christian vain or trait in you however righteous you may be but it has all been foretold that when god's anger is greatest and christendom suffers the greatest need then petitioners and supplicants before god shall not be found as isaiah says with tears in chapter 64 thou art angry with us and there is none that calleth upon thy name that stirth up himself to take hold of thee likewise in ezekiel 22 i sought for a man among them that should make up the hedge and that stand in the gap before me for the land that i should not destroy it but i found none therefore have i poured out mine indignation upon them i have consumed them with a fire of my wrath with these words god indicates how he wants us to withstand him and turn away his anger from one another as it is frequently written of the prophet moses that he restrained god lest his anger should overwhelm the people of israel 15 but what will they do who not only do not regard such misfortune of christendom and do not pray against it but laugh at it take pleasure in it condemn blind sing and talk of their neighbors sins and yet dare unafraid and unashamed go to churches hear mass say prayers and regard themselves and are guarded as pious christians these truly are a need that we pray twice for them if we pray once for those whom they condemn talk about and laugh at that there would be such is also prophesied by the thief on christ's left hand who blasphemed him in his suffering weakness and need also by those who reviled christ on the cross when they should most of all have helped him oh god how blind nay how insane have we christians become when will there be an end of wrath o heavenly father that we mock at the misfortune of christendom to pray for which we gather together in church and at the mass that we blaspheme and condemn men this is the fruit of our mad materialism if the turk destroys cities country and people and ruins churches we think a great injury has been done christendom then we complain and urge kings and princes to war but when faith perishes love grows old god's word is neglected and all manner of our sin flourishes then no one thinks of fighting nay pope bishops priests and clergy who ought to be generals captains and standard bearers in this spiritual warfare against these spiritual and many times worse turks these are themselves the very princes and leaders of such turks and of the devil just as judas was the leader of the jews when they took christ it had to be an apostle a bishop a priest one of the number of the best who began the work of slaying christ so also must christendom be laid waste by no others than those who ought to protect it and yet are so insane that they are ready to eat up the turks at home themselves set house and sheep coat on fire and let them burn up with the sheep and all other contents and nonetheless worry about the wolf in the woods such are our times and this is the reward we have earned by our ingratitude toward the endless grace which christ has won for us freely with his precious blood grievous

18 16. though where are the idol ones who do not know how to do good works where are they who run to rome to saint james hither and thither take up this one single work of the mass look on your neighbor's sin and ruin and have pity on him let it grieve you tell it to god and pray over it do the same for every other need of christendom especially of the rulers whom god for the intolerable punishment and torment of us all allows to fall and be misled so terribly if you do this diligently be assured that you are one of the best fighters and captains not only against the turks but also against the devils and the powers of hell but if you do not do it what would it help you though you performed all the miracles of the saints and murdered all the turks and yet were found guilty of having disregarded your neighbor's need and of having thereby sinned against love for christ at the last day will not ask how much you've prayed fasted pilgrimaged done this or that for yourself but how much good you have done to others even the very least now without doubt among the least are also those who are in sin and spiritual poverty captivity and need of whom they are at present far more than of those who suffer bodily need therefore take heed our own self-assumed good works lead us to and into ourselves that we seek only our own benefit and salvation but god's commandments drive us to our neighbor that we may thereby benefit others to their salvation just as christ on the cross prayed not for himself alone but rather for us when he said father forgive them for they know not what they do so also we must pray for one another from which every man may know that the slanderers frivolous judges and despisers of other people are a perverted evil race who do nothing else than heap abuse on those for whom they ought to pray in which vice no one is sunk so deep as those very men who do many good works of their own and seem to men to be something extraordinary and are honored because of their beautiful splendid life in manifold good works spiritually understood this commandment has a yet far higher work which embraces the whole nature of man here it must be known that in hebrew sabbath means rest because on the seventh day god rested and ceased from all his works which he had made genesis 2 therefore he commanded also that the seventh day should be kept holy and then we cease from our works which we do the other six days this sabbath has now for us been changed into the sunday and the other days are called work days the sunday is called rest day or holiday or holy day and wood to god then in christendom there were no holiday except the sunday that the festivals of our lady and of the saints were all transferred to sunday then would many evil vices be done away with through the labor of the workdays and lands would not be so drained and impoverished but now we are plagued with many holidays to the destruction of souls bodies and goods of which matter much might be said this rest or ceasing from laborers is of two kinds bodily and spiritual for this reason the commandment is also to be understood in two ways the bodily rest is that of which we have spoken above namely that we omit our business and work in order that we may gather in the church see mass hear god's word and make common prayer this rest is indeed bodily and in christendom no longer commanded by god as the apostle says in colossians 2 let no man obligate you to any holiday whatever for they were of old figure but now the truth has been fulfilled so that all days are holy days isaiah says in chapter 66 one holy day shall follow the other on the one hand all days are work days yet it is necessary and ordained by the church for the sake of the imperfect laity and working people that they also may be able to come to hear god's word for as we see the priests and clergy celebrate mass every day pray at all hours and train themselves in god's word by study reading and hearing for this reason also they are freed from work before others supported by tithes and have holy day every day and every day do the works of the holy day and have no work day but for them one day is at the other and if we were all perfect and knew the gospel we might work every day if we wished or rest we could for a day of rest is at present not necessary or commanded except only for the teaching of god's word and prayer the spiritual rest which god particularly intends in this commandment is this that we not only cease from our labor and trade but much more that we let god alone work in us and that we do nothing of our own with all our powers but how is this done in this way man corrupted by sin has much wicked love and inclination toward all sins as the scriptures say in genesis 8 man's heart and senses incline always to the evil that is to pride disobedience anger hatred covetousness unchastity etc and summa sumeram in all that he does leaves and done he seeks his own profit will and honor rather than gods and his neighbors therefore all his works all his words all his thoughts all his life are evil and not godly now if god is to work and to live in him all this vice and wickedness must be choked and uprooted so that there may be rest and a cessation of all our works thoughts and life and that heads forth as saint paul says in galatians 2 it may be no longer we who live but christ who lives works and speaks in us this is not accomplished with comfortable pleasant days but here we must hurt our nature and let it be heard here begins the strife between the spirit and the flesh here the spirit resists anger lust pride while the flesh wants to be in pleasure honor and comfort of this saint paul says in galatians 5 they that are our lord christ's have crucified the flesh with its affections and lusts then follow the good works fasting watching labor of which some say and write so much although they know neither the source nor the purpose of these good works therefore we will now also speak of them this rest namely that our work cease and god alone work in us is accomplished in two ways first through our own effort secondly through the effort or urging of others our own effort is to be made and ordered that in the first place when we see our flesh senses will and thoughts tempting us we resist them and do not heed them as the wise man says follow not that own desires and moses in deuteronomy 12 thou shalt not do what is right to thine own eyes here a man must make daily use of those prayers which david prays lord lead me in thy path and let me not walk in my own ways and many like prayers which are all summed up in the prayer thy kingdom come for the desires are so many so various and besides at times so nimble so subtle and specious through the suggestions of the evil one that is not possible for a man to control himself in his own ways he must let hands and feet go commend himself to god's governance and entrust nothing to his reason as jeremiah says oh lord i know the way of man is not in his own power we see proof of this when the children of israel went out of egypt through the wilderness where there was no way no food no drink no help therefore god went before them by day in a bright cloud by night in a fiery pillar fed them with manna from heaven and kept their garments and shoes they waxed not old as we read in the book of moses for this reason we pray thy kingdom come thou rule us and not we ourselves but there is nothing more perilous than us than our reason and will and this is the first and highest work of god in us and the best training that we cease from our works that we let our reason and will be idle that we rest and commend ourselves to god and all things especially when they seem to be spiritual and good

please visit librivox.org recording by philip nadas a treatise on good works by martin luther translated by johann michael roy the third commandment subsections 19 through 21 19 after this comes the discipline of the flesh to kill its gross evil lust to give it rest and relief this we must kill and quiet with fasting watching and labor and from this we learn how much and why we shall fast watch and labor there and alas many blind men who practice their castigation whether it be fasting watching or labor only because they think these are good works intending by them to gain much merit far blind or still are they who measure their fasting not only by the quantity or duration as these do but also by the nature of the food thinking that it is a far greater worth they do not eat meat eggs or butter beyond these are those who fast according to the saints and according to the days one fasting on wednesday another on saturday another on saint barbara's day another on saint sebastian's day and so on these all seek in their fasting nothing beyond the work itself when they have performed that they think that they have done a good work i will hear say nothing of the fact that some fast in such a way that they nonetheless drink themselves full some fast by eating fish and other foods so lavishly that they would come much nearer to fasting if they eat meat eggs and butter and by so doing would obtain far better results from their fasting for such fasting is not fasting but a mockery of fasting and of god therefore i allow everyone to choose his day food and quantity for fasting as he will on condition that he do not stop with that but have guard to his flesh let him put upon it fasting watching and labor according to its lust and wantonness and no more although pope church bishop father confessor or anyone else whosoever have commanded it for no one should measure and regulate fasting watching and labor according to the character or quality of the food or according to the days but according to the withdrawal or approach of the lust and wontonness of the flesh for the sake of which alone the fasting watching and labor is ordained that is to kill and to subdue them if it were not for this lust eating were as meritous as fasting sleeping and watching idleness as labor and each were as good as the other without all distinction 20. now if some should find that more wanton has arose in his flesh from eating fish than from eating eggs and meat let him eat meat and not fish again if he finds that his head becomes confused and crazed or his body and stomach injured through fasting or that it is not needful to kill the wantonness of his flesh he shall let fasting alone entirely and eat sleep be idle as it is necessary for his health regardless whether it be against the commands of the church or the rules of monastic orders for no commandment of the church no law of an order can make fasting watching and labor of more value than it has in serving to repress or to kill the flesh and its lusts where men go beyond this and the fasting eating sleeping watching are practiced beyond the strength of the body and more than is necessary to the killing of the lust so that through it the natural strength is ruined and the head is wrecked then let no one imagine that he has done good works or excuse himself by citing the commandment of the church or the law of his order he will be regarded as a man who takes no care of himself and as far as in him lies has become his own murderer for the body's not given us that we should kill its natural life or work but only that we kill his want on us unless his wantonness were so strong and great that we could not sufficiently resist it without ruin and harm to the natural life for as has been said in the practice of fasting watching and labor we are not look upon the works in themselves not on the days not on the number not on the food but only on the wonton and lustful adam that through them he may be cured of his evil appetite 21. from this we judge how wisely or foolishly some women act when they are with child and how the sick are to be treated for the foolish woman cling so firmly to their fasting that they run the risk of great danger to the fruit of the womb and to themselves rather than not to fast when the others fast they make a matter of conscience where there is none and where there is a matter of conscious they make none this is all the fall to the preachers because they continually pray to fasting and never point out its true use limit fruit cause and purpose so also the sick should be allowed to eat and drink every day whatever they wish in brief where the wontonness of the flesh ceases their every reason for fasting watching laboring eating this or that has already ceased and there is no longer any binding commandment at all but then care must be taken lest out of this freedom there grow a lazy indifference about killing the wantonness of the flesh for the roguish atom is exceedingly tricky in looking for permission for himself and in pleading the ruin of the body or of the mind so some men jump right in and say it is neither necessary nor commanded to fast or to mortify the flesh and are ready to eat this and that without fear just as if they had for a long time had much experience of fasting although they have never tried it no less are we to guard against offending those who not sufficiently informed regard it as great sin if we do not fast or eat as they do thieves we must kindly instruct not to hardly despise nor eat this or that in despite of them but we must tell them the reason why it is right to do so and thus gradually lead them to a correct understanding but if they are stubborn and will not listen we must let them alone and do as we know

think it is good for young people that they be enticed by reputation and honor and again by shame of and dishonor and so be induced to do good for there are many who do the good and leave the evil undone out of fear of shame and love of honor and so do what they would otherwise by no means do or leave undone these i leave to their opinion but at present we are seeking how true good works are to be done and they who are inclined to do them surely do not need to be driven by the fear of shame and to the love of honor they have and are to have a higher and far nobler incentive namely god's commandment god's fear god's approval and their faith and love toward god they who have not or regard not this motive and let shame and honour drive them these also have their reward as the lord says matthew 6 and as the motive so is also the work and the reward none of them is good except only in the eyes of the world now i hold that a young person could be more easily trained and incited by god's fear and commandments than by any other means yet where these do not help we must endure that they do the good and leave the evil for the sake of shame and of honor just as we must also endure wicked men or the imperfect of whom we spoke about nor can we do more than tell them that their works are not satisfactory and right before god and so leave them until they learn to do right for the sake of god's commandments also just as young children are induced to pray fast learn etc by gifts and promises of their parents even though it would not be good to treat them so all their lives so that they never learned to do good in the fear of god far worse if they become accustomed to do good for the sake of praise and honor 23 but this is true and that we must nonetheless have a good name and honor and everyone ought so to live that nothing evil can be said of him and that he give offence to no one as saint paul says romans 12 we are to be zealous to do good but not only before god but also before all men and to corinthians 4 we walk so honestly that no man knows anything against us but there must be great diligence and care lest such honor and good name puff up the heart and the heart find pleasure in them here the saying of solomon holds as the fire in the furnace proveth the gold so man is proved by the mouth of him that praises him few and most spiritual men must they be who when honored and praised remain indifferent and unchanged so that they do not care for it nor feel pride and pleasure in it but remain entirely free ascribe all that honor and fame to god offering it to him alone and using it only to the glory of god to the edification of their neighbours and in no way to their own benefit or advantage so that a man trusts not in his own honour nor exalt himself above the most incapable despised man on earth but acknowledge him a servant of god who has given him the honor in order that with it he may serve god and his neighbor just as if he had commanded him to distribute some golden to the poor for his sake so he says matthew 5 your light shall shine before men so that they may see your good works and glorify your father who is in heaven he does not say they shall praise you but your words shall only serve them to edification that through them they may praise god in you and in themselves this is the correct use of god's name and honor when god is thereby praised through the edification of others and if men want to praise us and not god in us we are not to endure it but with all our powers forbid it and flee from it as from the most grievous sin and robbery of divine honor 24 hence it comes that god frequently permits the man to fall into or remain in grievous sin in order that he maybe put shame in his own eyes and in the eyes of all men who otherwise could not have kept himself from this great vice of vain honor and fame if he had remained constant in his great gifts and virtues so god must ward off this sin by means of other grievous sins that his name alone may be honored and thus one sin becomes the other's medicine because of our perverse wickedness which not only does the evil but also misuses all that is good now see how much a man has to do if he would do good works which always are at hand in great number and with which he is surrounded on all sides but alas because of his blindness he passes them by and seats and runs after others of his own devising and pleasure against which no man can sufficiently speak and no man can sufficiently guard with this all the prophets had to contend and for this reason they were all slain only because they rejected such self-devised works and preached only god's commandments as one of them says jeremiah 7 thus saith the god of israel unto you take your burnt offerings into all your sacrifices and eat your burnt offerings and your flesh yourselves but concerning these things i have commanded you nothing but this thing commanded i you obey my voice that is not what seems right and good to you but what i bid you and walk in the way that i have commanded you and deuteronomy 7 thou shalt not do whatsoever is right in thine own eyes but what thy god has commanded thee these and numberless like passages of scripture are spoken to tear man not only from sins but also from the works which seem to men to be good and right and to turn men with a single mind to the simple meaning of god's commandment only that they shall diligently observe this only and always as it is written exodus 13 these commandments shall be for a sign unto thee upon thine hand and for a memorial between thine eyes and psalm 1 a godly man meditates in god's law day and night for we have more than enough and too much to do if we are to satisfy only god's commandments he has given us such commandments that if we understand them a right we dare not for a moment be idle and might easily forget all other works but the evil spirit who never rests when he cannot lead us to the left into evil works fights on our right through self-devised works that seem good but against which god has commanded deuteronomy 28 and joshua 23 ye shall not go aside from my commandments to the right hand or to the left 25 the third work of this commandment is to call upon god's name in every need for this god regards as keeping his name holy and greatly honouring it if we name and call upon it in adversity and need and this is really why he sends us so much trouble suffering adversity and even death and lets us live in many wicked sinful affections that he may thereby urge man and give him much reason to run to him to cry aloud to him to call upon his holy name and thus to fulfill this work of the second commandment as he says in someone call upon me in the day of trouble i will deliver thee and thou shalt glorify me for i desire the sacrifice of praise and this is the way whereby thou cast come in unto salvation for through such works man perceives and learns what god's name is how powerful it is to help all who call upon it and whereby confidence and faith grow mightily and these are the fulfilling of the first and highest commandment this is the experience of david psalm 54 thou hast delivered me out of all trouble therefore will i praise thy name and confess that it is lovely and sweet and psalm xc 1 says because he hath set his hope upon me therefore will i deliver him i will help him because he hath known my name lo what man is there on earth who would not all his life long have enough to do with this work for who lives an hour without trials i will not mention the trials of adversity which are newborn bull for this is the most dangerous trial of all when there is no trial and everything is and goes well for then a man is tempted to forget god to become too bold and to misuse the times of prosperity yay here he has ten times more need to call upon god's name than when in adversity since it is written psalm 91 a thousand shall fall on the left hand and ten thousand on the right hand so too we see in broad day in all men's daily experience that more hereness sins and fires occur when there is peace when all things are cheap and there are good times than when war pestilence sicknesses and all manner of misfortune burden us so that moses also fears for his people lest they forsake god's commandment for no other reason than because they are too full too well provided for and have too much peace as he says deuteronomy 32 my people is waxed rich full and fat therefore has it forsaken its god wherefore also god let many of its enemies remain and would not drive them out in order that they should not have peace and must exercise themselves in the keeping of god's commandments as it is written judges three so he deals with us also when he sends us all kinds of misfortune so exceedingly careful is he of us that he may teach us and drive us to honour and call upon his name to gain confidence and faith towards him and so to fulfill the first two commandments end of section 22. section number 23 of a tree ties on good works this is a libra volts recording or librivox recordings or in the public domain for more information or to volunteer please visit librivox.org recording by elaine conway england a tree ties on good works by martin luther translated by johann michael roone section 23 third commandment 16 to 25 but you say how can i trust surely that all my works are pleasing to god when at times i fall and talk eat drink and sleep too much or otherwise transgress as i cannot help doing answer this question shows that you still regard faith as a work among other works and do not set it above all works for it is the highest work for this very reason because it remains and blocks out these daily sins by not doubting that god is so kind to you as to wing cap such daily transgression and weakness i even if a deadly sin should occur which however never or rarely happens to those who live in faith and trust toward god yet faith rises again and does not doubt that its sin is already gone as it is written 1 john 2 my little children these things are right unto you that ye sin not and if any man's sin we have an advocate with god the father jesus christ who is the propagation of all our sins and wisdom 15 for if we sin we are thine knowing thy power and proverbs 24 for a just man falleth seven times and riseth up again yes this confidence and faith must be so high and strong that the man knows that all his life and works are nothing but damnable sins before god's judgment as it is written psalm 143 in thy light shall no man living be justified and he must entirely despair of his works believing that they cannot be good except through this faith which looks for no judgment but only for pure grace favor kindness and mercy like david psalm 26 thy lovingkindness is ever before mine eyes and i have trusted in life truth psalm 4 the light of thy countenance is lift up upon us that is the knowledge of thy grace through faith and therefore hast thou put gladness in my heart for as faith trusts so it receives see thus our works forgiven are without guilt and are good not by their own nature but by the mercy and grace of god because of the faith which trusts on the mercy of god therefore we must fear because of the works but comfort ourselves because of the grace of god as it is written psalm 142 the lord taketh pleasure in them that i fear him in those that hope in his mercy so we pray with perfect confidence uh father and yet petition forgive us our trespasses we are children and yet sinners are acceptable and yet do not do enough and all this is the work of faith firmly grounded in god's grace seventeen but if you ask where the faith and the confidence can be found and once they come this it is certainly most necessary to know first without doubt faith does not come from your works or merit but alone from jesus christ and is freely promised and given as saint paul writes romans 5 god commandeth his love to us as exceeding sweet and kindly in that while we were yet sinners christ died for us as if he said ought not this give us a strong unconquerable confidence that before we prayed or cared for it yes while we continually walk in sins christ dies for our sin saint paul concludes if while we were yet sinners christ died for us how much more then being justified by his blood shall we be saved from wrath through him and if when we were enemies we were reconciled to god by the death of his son much more being reconciled shall we be saved by his life lo thus must thou form christ within thyself and see how in him god holds before thee and obviously his mercy without any previous merits of thy known and from such a view of his grace must thou draw faith and confidence of the forgiveness of all thy sins faith therefore does not begin with works neither do they create it but it must spring up and flow from the blood wounds and death of christ if thou see in these that god is so kindly affectioned towards thee that he gives even his son for thee then thy heart also must in its turn grow sweet and kindly affection toward god and so thy confidence must grow out of pure good will and love god's love towards thee and vine toward god we never read that the holy spirit was given to anyone when he did works but always when men have heard the gospel of christ and to the mercy of god from this same word and from no other source must faith still come even in our day and always for christ is the rock out of which men suck oil and honey as moses says deuteronomy 32 18. so far we have tweeted of the first work and of the first commandment but very briefly plainly and hastily for very much might be said of it we will now trace the works father through the following commandments the second work next to faith is the work of the second commandment that we shall honor god's name and not take it in vain this like all the other words cannot be done without faith and if it is done without faith it is all sham and show after faith we can do no greater work than to praise preach sing and in every way exalt and magnify god's glory honor and name and although i have said above and it is true that there is no difference in works where faith is and does the work yet this is true only when they are compared with faith and its works measured by one another there is a difference and one is higher than the other just as in the body the members do not differ when compared with health and health works in the one as much as in the other yet the works of the members are different and one is higher nobler more useful than the other so here also to praise god's glory and name is better than the works of the other commandments which follow and yet it must be done in the same faith as all the others but i know well that this work is likely esteemed and has indeed become unknown therefore we must examine it further and will say no more about the necessity of doing it in the faith and confidence that it pleases god indeed there is no work in which confidence and faith are so well experienced and felt as in honoring god's name and it greatly helps to strengthen and increase faith although all works also have to do this as saint peter says to peter one wherefore the rather brethren give diligence through good works to make your calling and election sure 19 the first commandment forbids us to have other gods and thereby commands that we have a god the true god by a firm faith trust confidence love and hope which are the only works whereby a man can have honor and keep a god for by no other work can one find or lose god except by faith or unbelief by trusting or doubting of the other works none reaches quite to god so also in the second commandment we are forbidden to use his name in vain yet this is not to be enough but we are thereby also commanded to honor call upon glorify preach and praise his name and indeed it is impossible that god's name should not be dishonored where it is not rightly honoured for although it be honoured with the lips bending of the knees kissing and other postures if this is not done in the heart by faith in confident trust in god's grace it is nothing else than an evidence and badge of hypocrisy see now how many kinds of good works the man can do under this commandment at all times and never be without good works of this commandment if he will so that he truly needs not to make a long pilgrimage or seek holy places four tell me what a moment can pass in which we do not without ceasing receive god's blessings or on the other hand suffer adversity but what else are god's blessings and adversities than a constant urging and stirring up to praise honor and bless god and to call upon his name now if you had nothing else at all to do would you not have enough to do with this commandment alone that you without ceasing bless sing praise and honor god's name and for what other purpose have turned for his language and has been created a psalm 51 says lord open thou my lips and my mouth shall show forth by praise again my tongue shall sing aloud thy mercy what work is there in heaven except that of this second commandment as it is written in psalm 84 blessed are they that dwell in thy house they will be forever praising thee so also david says in psalm 34 god's praise shall be continually in my mouth and saint paul 1 corinthians 10 whether therefore ye eat or drink or whatsoever ye do do all to the glory of god also colossians 3 whatsoever ye do in word or deed to all in the name of the lord jesus giving thanks to god and the father if we were to observe this work we would have a heaven here on earth and always have enough to do as have the saints in heaven twenty on this is based the wonderful and righteous judgment of god that at times the poor man in whom no one can see many great works in the privacy of his home joyfully praises god when he fares well all with entire confidence calls upon him when he fares ill and thereby does a greater and more acceptable work than another who fast much praise much endows churches makes pilgrimages and burdens himself with great deeds in this place and in that such a fool opens whitey's mouth looks for great works to do and is so blinded that he does not at all notice his greatest work and praising god is in his eyes a very small matter compared with the great idea he has formed of the words of his own devising in which he perhaps praises himself more than god or takes more pleasure in them than he does in god and thus with his good works he storms against the second commandment and its works of all this we have an illustration in the case of the pharisee and the publican in the gospel for the sinner calls upon god in his sins and praises him and so has hit upon the two highest commandments faith and god's honor the hypocrite misses both and struts about with other good works by which he praises himself and not god and puts his trust in himself more than in god therefore he is justly rejected and the others chosen the reason of all this is that the higher and better the works are the less show they make and that everyone thinks they are easy because it is evident that no one pretends to praise god's name and honor so much as the very men who never do it and with their show of doing it while the heart is without faith cause the precious work to be despised so that the apostles ain't poor dare say boldly romans 2 that they blaspheme in god's name who make their boast of god's law for to name the name of god and to write his honor on paper and on the walls is an easy matter but genuinely to praise and bless him in his good deeds and confidently to call upon him in all adversities these are truly the most rare highest works next to faith so that if we were to see how few of them their own christendom we might despair for very sorrow and yet there is a constant increase of high pretty shining works of men's devising or if works which look like these true works but at bottom are all without faith and without faithfulness in short there is nothing good back of them thus also isaiah 43 rebukes the people of israel hear ye this ye which are called by the name of israel which swear by the name of the lord to make mention of the god of israel neither in truth nor in righteousness that is they did it not in the truth faith and confidence which is the real truth and righteousness but trusted in themselves their works and powers and yet called upon god's name and praised him two things which do not fit together 21. the first work of this commandment then is to praise god in all his benefits which are innumerable so that such praise and thanksgiving ought also of right never to cease or end for who can praise him perfectly for the gift of natural life not to mention all other temporal and eternal blessings and so through this one part of the commandment man is overwhelmed with good and precious works if he do these in true faith he has indeed not lived in vain and in this matter none sin so much as the most resplendent saints who are pleased with themselves and like to praise themselves or to hear themselves praised honored and glorified before men therefore the second work of this commandment is to be on one's guard to flee from and to avoid all temporal honor and praise and to never to seek a name for oneself or fame and a great reputation let everyone sing of him and tell of him which is an exceedingly dangerous sin and yet to the most common of all and alas little regarded everyone wants to be of importance and not to be the least however small he may be so deeply his nature sank in the evil of its own conceit and in its self-confidence contrary to those two first commandments now the world regards this terrible vice as the highest virtue and this makes it exceedingly dangerous for those who do not understand and have not had experience of god's commandments and the histories of the holy scriptures to read or hear the heathen books and histories for all heathen books are poisoned through and through with his striving after praise and honor in them men are taught by blind reason that they were not nor could be men of power and worth who are not moved by praise and honor but those are counted the best who disregard body and life friend and property and everything in the effort to win praise and honor all the holy fathers have complained of this vice and with one mind conclude that it is the very last vice to be overcome saint augustine says all other vices are practiced in evil works only honor and self-satisfaction are practiced in and by means of good works therefore if a man had nothing else to do except the second work of this commandment he would yet have to work all his lifetime in order to fight this vice and drive it out so common so subtle so quick and insidious is it now we all pass by this good work and exercise ourselves in many other lesser good works nay through other good works we overthrow this and forget it entirely so the holy name of god which alone should be honored is taken in vain and dishonored through our own cursed name self-approval and honor seeking and this sin is more grievous before god than murder and adultery but its wickedness is not so clearly seen as that of murder because of its subtlety which is not accomplished in the course flesh but in the spirit 22 some think it is good for young people that they be enticed by reputation and honor and again by shame of and dishonor and so be induced to do good for there are many who do the good and leave the evil undone out of fear of shame and love of honor and so do what they would otherwise by no means do or leave undone these i leave to their opinion but at present we are seeking how two good works are to be done and they who are inclined to do them surely do not need to be driven by the fear of shame and the love of honor they have and are to have a higher and far nobler incentive namely god's commandment god's fear god's approval and their faith and love toward god they who have not or regards not this motive and let shea madonna drive them these also have their reward as the lord says matthew 6 and as the motive so is also the work and the reward none of them is good except only in the eyes of the world now i hold that a young person could be more easily trained and incited by god's fear and commandments than by any other means yet where these do not help we must endure that they do the good and leave the evil for the sake of shame and of honor just as we must also endure wicked men or the imperfect of whom we spoke above nor can we do more than tell them that their works are not satisfactory right before god and so leave them until they learn to do right for the sake of god's commandments also just as young children aren't used to pray fast to learn etc by gifts and promises of the parents even though it would not be good to treat them so all their lives so that they never learned to do good in the fear of god far worse if they do become accustomed to do good for the sake of praise and honor 23 but this is true that we must nonetheless have a good name and honor and everyone ought so to live that nothing evil can be said of him and that he give offence to no one as saint paul says romans 12 we are to be zealous to do good not only before god but also before all men and 2 corinthians 4 we walk so honestly that no man knows anything against us so there must be great diligence and care lest such honor and good name puff up the heart and the heart find pleasure in them here the saying of solomon holds as the fire in the furnace proveth the gold so man is proved by the mouth of him that praises him few and most spiritual men must they be who when honored and praised remain indifferent and unchanged so that they do not care for it nor feel pride and pleasure in it but remain entirely free ascribe all their honor and fame to god offering it to him alone and using it only to the glory of god to the edification of the neighbors and in no way to their own benefit or advantage so that a man trusts not in his own honour nor exalt himself above the most incapable despised man on earth but acknowledge himself as servant of god who has given him the honour in order that with it he may serve god and his neighbor just as if he had commanded him to distribute some golden to the poor for his sake so he says matthew 5 your light shall shine before men so that they may see your good works and glorify your father who is in heaven he does not say they shall praise you but shall only serve them to edification that through them they may praise god in you and in themselves this is the correct use of god's name and honor when god is thereby praised through the edification of others and if men want to praise us and not god in us and not to endure it but with all our powers forbid it and flee from it as from the most grievous sin and robbery of divine honor 24 hence it comes that god frequently permits the man to fall into a remaining grievous sin in order that he may be put to shame in his own eyes and in the eyes of all men who otherwise could not have kept himself on this great voice of vain honor and fame if he had remained constant in his great gifts and virtues so god must wood off his sin by means of other grievous sins that his name alone may be on it and thus one's sin becomes the other's medicine because of our perverse wickedness which not only does the evil but also misuses all that is good now see how much a man has to do if he would do good works which always are at hand in great number and with which he is surrounded on all sides but alas because of this blindness passes them by and seeks and runs after others of his own devising and pleasure against which no man can sufficiently speak and no man can sufficiently guard with this all the prophets had to contend and for this reason they were all slain only because they rejected such self-devised works and preached only god's commandments as one of them says jeremiah 7 thus save the god of israel unto you take your burnt offerings and unto all your sacrifices and eat your burnt offerings and your flesh yourselves for concerning these things i have commanded you nothing but this thing commanded i you obey my voice that is not what seems right and good to you but what i bid you and walk in the way that i have commanded you and deuteronomy at twelve thou shalt not do whatsoever is right in thine own eyes to what thy god has commanded thee these and numberless like passages of scripture are spoken to term mind not only from sins but also from the works which seem to men to be good and write and to turn men with a single mind to the simple meaning of god's commandment only that they shall diligently observe this only and always as it is written exodus 13 these commandments shall be for a sign unto thee upon thine hand and for a memorial between thine eyes and psalm 1 a godly man meditates in god's law day and night for we have more than enough and too much to do if we are to satisfy only god's commandments he has given us such commandments as if we understand them a right we dare not for a moment to be idol and might easily forget all other works but the evil spirit who never rests when he cannot lead us to the left into evil works fights on our right through self-devised works that seem good but against which god has commanded deuteronomy 28 and joshua 23 ye shall not go aside from my commandments to the right hand or to the left 25 the third work of this commandment is to call upon god's name in every need for this god regards us keeping his name holy and greatly honouring it if we name and call upon it in adversity and need and this is really why he sends us so much trouble suffering adversity and even death and lets us live in many wicked sinful affections that he may thereby urge man and give him much reason to enter him to cry like to him to call upon his holy name and thus to fulfill this work of the second commandment as he says in psalm 1 call upon me in the day of trouble i will deliver thee and thou shalt glorify me for i desire the sacrifice of praise and this is the way whereby thou canst come in unto salvation for through such words man perceives and learns what god's name is how powerful it is to help all you call upon it and whereby confidence and faith grow mightily and these are the fulfilling for the first highest commandment this is the experience of david psalm 54 thou has delivered me out of all trouble therefore will i praise thy name and confess that it is lovely and sweet and psalm 91 says because he hath set his hope upon me therefore will i deliver him i will help him because he have known my name lo what man is there on earth who would not all his life long have enough to do with his work for who lives are now without trials i will not mention the trials of adversity which are a new mobile for this is the most dangerous trial of all when there is no trial and everything is and goes well for then a man is tempted to forget god become too bold and to misuse times of prosperity yea here he has ten times will need to call upon god's name and when in adversity since it is written psalm 91 a thousand shall fall on the left hand and ten thousand on the right hand so too we see in broad day in all man's daily experience that more heinous sins and fights occur when there is peace when all things are cheap and there are good times than when war pestilence sicknesses and all manner of misfortune burden us so that moses also fears for his people thus they forsake god's commandment for no other reason than because they are too full too well provided for and have too much peace as he says deuteronomy 32 my people is waxed rich full and fat therefore has it forsaken its god wherefore also god let many of its enemies remain and would not drive them out in order that they should not have peace and must exercise themselves in the keeping of god's commandments as it is written judges three so he deals with us also when he sends us all kinds of misfortune so exceedingly careful is he of us that he may teach us strive us to honor and call upon his name to gain confidence and faith toward him and so to fulfill the first two commandments end of section 23 you | Priceless Audiobooks | UCly1zcKPGzGW9wZMCZodWOA | 2020-01-27 | Creative

take your time take your time okay oh my gosh man close take your time and i just i just slammed it into the thing dude as fast as possible oh my gosh okay we're doing okay try to kill it again okay [Music] he missed okay good comebacks oh dropping a foul real quick okay we're good we're good yep uh go again if you can nice zero okay we're okay we're okay oh my god everybody's flopping number one nice good save maybe you should work it's not a one again there you go keeping it up boom it still is boost oh he's got it which i just let his pull yeah nice okay okay he's gonna go again the corner i have no boost man get there oh okay go again quick nice oh how you feeling uh scared he's gonna have this yup you nice okay that was close yep ipa open dude let's go first game baby let's go our goal has already been reached oh they're not happy with that one either yo you're an enforcer 40 cars bumpers yeah i got four epic saves wow that was a good that was a good win you had over a thousand more points than me how do you feel how do you feel after the win you feel a little uh feeling better yeah i'm feeling better okay all right genuinely surprised we won the first that's what i'm saying man i'm sitting here like wait our goal was to get one win now i'm like now we have to now our goal has to be to like not lose [Laughter] oh god is that bad that's bad yeah i play with franti and like lobbies against like arsenal and stuff so god i need a faster kickoff for these lobbies yeah this is bad i don't know who noah is though but look he's already going to move it back i'm up the wall here oh you got it i'm already there this is bad yep yeah oh no yeah i should have tried to follow your hit no i have nothing that's over me oh i missed all the pads oh my god i'm panicking it's okay this is a lot faster face game for sure jump up for it that's fine okay okay i tried to get out of the way man um so what's our goal now a goal uh score yeah i don't i don't know if that's going to happen man it'll be honest with you like i don't think noah is that great of a player but this franchise is always like in the high level lobbies so oh boy oh god oh no i just can't get boost oh it's all okay yeah it's getting enough boost to like make a play i'm gonna pop this up high okay okay shoot oh gosh i thought you went back oh no i wanted to cut it off for you in mid oh this is so bad look at these reeds yep thank you for not trying dude i just can't get any boost this is so i have to keep like cutting positions in weird spots i'm dead yep he's doing the thing i'm gonna make him force from the side dude i just can't make a play every time i get the ball i'm at 12 boost i dude i just actually oh this is so infuriating come on oh it's not even in you quick quick good try the fact they've only scored twice is pretty good though i was gonna say we're not getting stomped no i mean i deal with a lot of this oh let's go fifty oh dang man i mean i deal with a lot of weird teammates in in ranks but that was uh it was honestly pretty impressive i'm gonna say like that that usually the franchi guy is pretty good so oh i dig down already wow i've been in div three for so long i've been in different three for so long getting a bunch of points i just lost a bunch i guess oh pain i just think that we're getting baited way too much but that's okay all right the goal is a goal we've we've lost the goal the goal is a goal yeah this is even this is even worse than last lobby wait for him just keep waiting keep waiting keep waiting oh gosh thank you just like just keep like that's what i'm saying just do not do do not bit yourself in for anything like they're just gonna keep trying to play it over you if you just wait wait until he gets near the floor keep waiting but get in his way once he goes close there you go nice yeah bumps you oh that was so close it was so close good try the game was like the game gave us like a good start and then it was like oh so you can win that huh okay you think you're good huh i'm so screwed you missed follow you go back waiting behind you he's got a flip bump tried to oh come on [Music] you like we're stuck between whether or not you should bump them or drive away and then you just did both like neither which is unfortunate okay we're fine we're fine we're still trying to just aim for a goal here not that boost yes i blocked him but he's still with it yeah this is impossible yeah oh no i just i keep telling you not to get baited but it it's so easy to like not see that they're gonna just do those things but they're going to just constantly try to outplay you in the littlest places and that's that's the big difference and we just need to like slow it down when they're making challenges that's a goal oh boy you nice stay with us you missed open come on daddy let's go come on oh my god we gotta go i'm so proud i know you scored it oh oh man that's a goal i don't know you said mid and i was not i know you were but then so if you aren't then don't go like you you once again you're stuck in between like uh whether you want to go or not and then you're on it after it so you need to just not go at that point yeah but being ready there is good dang it that would have been such a good flick that's over me but i'm gonna bump him oh my god oh my god i didn't hit a a second time you bumped me oh no oh my god i can't score man there's no way it's a goal oh my god you scored again look at those angles i mean he just keeps double jumping in that yeah oh my god this is ridiculous we've scored both the goals pretty impressive i'm out of my mind all right i don't know what to do here i can't score either they both missed oh good try all right well not unexpected but we did better than i also expected so that's good that's good i'm about to dominate in my lobbies now this is gonna be my this is my last placement game oh it is if we do one more oh perfect then we'll know exactly where you're sitting oh great i mean we didn't do too bad against them we could actually win this let's see if we can redeem ourselves feeling it yeah you know i'm not feeling it as much anymore this is full scary no it's perfect oh boy okay i got it ask me yep yep keep in the corner i get zero i'm gonna boom this any pads would be nice please spare me a pad sir still zero sorry i got a little bit now oh what do i do here yep i'm trying to chase them you oh nevermind hang on hang on nice good job i'd love to have a decent amount of boost that'd be lovely let's go hey we scored honestly like you're getting big pads being gone all the time but all those small pads are always gone yeah everything's gone you just gotta find the space i think you're you're thinking too hard and i get i get that as well you just gotta just move around okay not gonna commit i don't want to commit at all i'm so scared i didn't boost good luck oh i couldn't go oh no i got the save up let's go it's not gonna be in though let me take that mid boost my bad all good all good oh my god oh gosh yeah i can't save i can't i'm just throwing it man i have no boost bumping them i need boost you nice can't jump oh good try good try oh man close yeah more novel though no it's not horrible we just need bigger clears down the field not into the ceiling uh in spots fair enough fair enough yeah oh gosh i touched it no [Music] oh you take me all right we got it i faked them okay uh this guy's trying to do like tech support in the middle of the ring oh god all right i'm cheating up a little bit that's horrendous bumped him he followed me they're focusing on me man i'm terrified gotta flip reset yeah yeah yeah oh boy i'm being bumped like crazy you let's go danny what a shot there we go we had a good play yeah yeah it was good play zero boost there all right i got it he's gonna tip this fast you you quick just challenge good job yep deposit middle come on let's go daddy let's go let's go we gotta get another dub here i play this straight how that works yep he's already back watch out yep monkey challenge him nice job yeah i had the dodge demo first is one fast careful he's gonna go fake it maybe yep i'm terrified he stole his boots he faked it oh my god we gotta win uh reinstall hamachi maybe tech support left got you well we got another win that's all i'm happy about i just didn't want to be two losses for the other videos so anticlimactic this is a great finish oh my god yeah we got the redemption hey and also your champ what is that champ one camp two team three that's team three oh okay not as not as bad

DJuey4iN_5g | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DJuey4iN_5g | SAUCONY ENDORPHIN PRO 3 VS THE REST PT1 | ALPHAFLY & VAPORFLY NEXT% 2, SPEED 3 & METASPEED SKY+ | hey cats i've got some of my cushioned comparisons and outsole observations for you today i'm matching up the saucony endorphin pro 3 against some of the best other super shoes lots to get through so let's get to it [Music] thanks for joining me back on the channel if it's your first time here where have you been hit that subscribe button and click the bell below for notifications to help the channel to continue to grow also give this video a thumbs up like that's very important and share it with your running buddies thank you shin the newly released saucony endorphin pro 3 is right up here in my estimations super performance and comfort in this one but how does it compare to some of the other super shoes around right now one of its most cushioned cousins the alpha flying next percent to i'm getting about three to four millimeters extra stack height here back here in the heel in the alpha fly next percent two over the endorphin pro 3. i've lost track of how many people have asked me to compare these two shoes together so many requests they do seem to be the top two choices at the moment for marathons for the viewers out there both shoes follow the less rubber is more approach here both models have minimized the rubber thickness here in the outsole to provide a little bit of extra wiggle room in terms of midsole height we have a slightly narrower heel in the endorphin pro 3 against the alpha fly next percent two he's about half a centimeter difference in terms of the width with the saucony being narrower still in the mid foot as the distance goes up weight may be more of a concern for you i guess if you want to lug around less weight in a marathon probably makes sense the saucony endorphin pro 3 is about 33 grams or 1.16 ounces lighter in my uk size 11 compared to the alpha fly next percent 2. there's certainly a more standard or traditional feel here in the saucony does feel a little bit more like a standard running shoe i suppose in terms of the upper i mean it's no race flat don't get me wrong none of these shoes are really but it certainly feels more traditional than nike's technological terror despite the addition of that extra foam underneath the airpods in this version of the shoe i do still find it quite an aggressive ride if you're gonna be hitting in the mid to four foot you're gonna feel it from my perspective the saucony is that a little bit more forgiving in terms of different foot strikes you could engage that rocker speed roll technology here by coming down in the heel and then transitioning to the mid to forefoot but i think it handles pretty much any foot strike really that little bit more than the alpha fly next percent to i actually think that these two shoes are perhaps the most versatile of the current crop more forgiving across a range of paces i suppose the improved grip here on the endorphin pro 3 i feel brings it a little bit closer to some of nike's offerings in terms of value and versatility and they've seemingly increased the cushion here in the midsole it does appear to be the same stuff but there's certainly a lot more squash there i think it's now a very close call between these two the saucony endorphin pro 3 comes in at 210 earth credits although the increased price of the alpha fly next percent 2 uh 270 earth credits is surely gonna push a few runners towards saucony's stable if i had to have one right now it'd probably be the soccery actually i'm traveling in a few days time and it's a shoe i think i'll probably take away with me it's that versatile can just sort of do anything really i'm not gonna wear around town or while i'm going to the shops or anything but certainly if i want to do a bit of running while i'm traveling it's spot on it won't add too much weight to my traveling bag either if you're enjoying the video today why don't you hit us with a super thanks it does help to support the channel on a more ad hoc sort of basis here's another one that people have requested to compare the endorphin pro 3 up against the endorphin speed 3. you know i like to try and surprise you this is another one that everybody's asking for this higher stack supposed training partner to the endorphin pro 3 comes in at 165 earth credits here in the uk so you've got about 55 extra for the endorphin pro 3. what do you get for that additional cash is there that much more than it makes it worthwhile certainly in terms of the upper and overall profile of the shoe it's certainly a more race and pace orientated version here slightly narrower in the heel than the speed 3. i think this time round the speed and the pro are a little bit further apart than they've been before there's certainly more stability in the speed three due to that winged plate and you do feel it it is a little bit more guided it's not quite as fancy free as it was in the one and two i'm finding the rigidity in the endorphin pro 3 does facilitate perhaps a slightly faster pace just feels like a more nimble and slightly more propulsive shoot i feel that the endorphin pro 3 is perhaps the better shoe this time round i think it's going to stay consistent over the miles i used to find that the speed does start to flex a little bit and isn't quite the shoe it was when you first took it out the box i think with the carbon plate here in the endorphin pro 3 it's going to stay a little bit more like it is when you first take it out that box and start using it i've never found that the foam really starts to give too much it was always the plate so i think that's why this one's the better bet this time around certainly a little bit more guiding in the foot strike this time it's by no means a firm shoe or whatsoever the speed three it does feel though that saucony have nerfed the shoe a little bit it isn't quite the propulsive beast that it was before it's not said i don't like it i still think it's a fantastic shoe is right up there now everybody's going to benefit perhaps from the pro 3. in that case if i was on a desert running island and had to take only one it'd probably be the pro 3 right now there's only about 15 grams difference between these two i think most of that is probably in the upper of the speed three they really have refined things here in the um dolphin pro three next up the proclaimed king of the super shoes the vapor flying next percent to now we've got similar weight in both pairs here this one is in fact an 11 and a half it comes in very slightly heavier than the endorphin pro three so it's a slight weight advantage here in the vapor fly next percent two biggest difference here is that much narrower heel surface area does feel like the socket is a little bit more stable similar midsole stack and heel to toe drop though in both of these shoes there seems to be a lack of a vapor flying next percent three no images yeah nothing to talk about nike seem to feel quite comfortable in the fact they've got the best super shoe out there they keep knocking out various different color ways of it even the last couple of weeks has been new ones bear in mind that the midsole and outsole unit in this shoe has been around since 2019 so it hasn't changed at all the proven credentials and use of this shoe over the last few years really does elevate it a little bit above some of the others i have to be honest though saucony have learnt a lot by examining some of those other super shoes there's a load of little refinements they've made here just simplifying those upper materials making the shoe a little bit more durable in terms of that rubber coverage and also losing some of the materials that they don't need saucony appear to have tried to improve the performance in all areas of this shoe to try and match up against the vapor fly i think the pro 3 is probably as close to that as anybody's come so far they've almost replicated that underfoot magic and it really is a joy to run in this one any pace so i think it's a little bit down to the personal preference here pretty much with all the super shoes it is really how much cushions you want how much squash do you want how much energy returned do you just want it to be very light do you want to be durable really is down to her personal preference here it remains to be seeing just how durable the endorphin pro 3 will be we're just looking at this pair of the next percent 2 after 100 miles or so i mean it's still absolutely fantastic really don't feel that difference when i first took them out the box and in terms of the upper materials overall durability really you can't moan it's a bit like the shore sm 58 of running shoes if i had to have one though and only one i'd probably still go with the vaporfly next percent but it's marginal now last one up today against the a6 meta speed sky plus massively different approaches here from saucony and a6 in these two super shoes asics have looked to maximize the heel and four foot stack here in the sky plus only a five mil drop if my memory serves me right it does feel a much more aggressive shoe it's a little bit firmer i wouldn't say it's unforgiving by any stretch the flight phone turbo does seem to be a little bit more brittle feeling it's a bit closer to what i remember from the vapor fly four percent flyknit against the super squashy and compressive i guess you could call it boost version two really which is power run pb you got a flatter plate here in the sky plus versus a much more rocker light action in the pro 3. i've got to be honest i've enjoyed running in both of these shoes are incredibly exhilarating very different approaches really though a minimized upper profile here on the asic shoe though if i was going to race in anything above a half marathon i think the pro 3 would probably be my choice right now this shoe just makes me feel like i want to put the hammer down if it's a 5 10 k or half marathon this would probably be my choice felt absolutely smashing when i used it at the a610k in london recently grip on the a6 shoe still has the upper hand if you ask me on all surfaces it just feels fantastically good it was a very hot day at that recent race and it felt a little bit like i had sort of race slicks on they were always sticking to the floor it was fantastic though that's not to say soccany haven't improved the outsole here in the pro 3. pattern and positioning of the rubber just give us a little bit more traction this time around some people may prefer this slightly more built up heel here in the pro 3. others will want the more lower profile upper that we've got in the a6 shoe i do like the ride in both of these but certainly the a6 shoes the more aggressive of the two this one just feels buttery smooth at anything above seven minutes 30 per mile pace for me really does feel like you're just gliding along it was wonderful this morning if i had to have one and only one it's a real hard choice i think in terms of racing i'd probably go with the asic shoe if i was doing a marathon yeah i'd go with the pro just feel this one's a little bit more nimble for me over five or 10k distances interesting for me that pretty much all the super shoes i have come in at around about 230 to 240 grams these days seems that's about as low as they're getting things i mean you've got to have a bit of rubber some foam and some upper materials and it doesn't seem to get much lighter than that they've refined the uppers as much as they can now everybody wants those maximize 40 millimeter midsole stacks and the outsoles have all been trimmed down to the bare bones i think it's a bit horses for courses with that last comparison there it's very much about the type of ride you want from your shoe hope you've enjoyed those comparisons today let me know your views and opinions on the saucony endorphin pro 3 or any of the super shoes i've covered on today's video down in the comments musical interlude today comes from the fantastic album from 2000 lost souls by the doves there's a beautiful song on this one guys i've forgotten about it i have my mind sort of pushed back to it the other day by another song by the strokes track four in here is called see song it really is a wonderous thing i say a song it's more like an emotional kind of journey listening to this one got these guitars and these sounds sort of undulating they go round and round they're saying about the mixture of the acoustic guitars the percussion and the piano parts on the intro really make my hairs stand on end i really love it when drums add to the impact of a melody as well that's exactly what happens here in the c song helps to sort of lift up the melody when it needs to and brings it right down when it doesn't need to i guess you could almost say it's kind of like a shoegaze song but it's more impactful and dynamic than that there's some energy there there's some force but combined with all these other beautiful bits that have been carefully sort of sculpted around the idea the vocals are fantastic as well very drawn out almost used like strings i suppose i can remember the first time i ever heard this track i think it was released perhaps as an ep or something before the album was released but go and check it out you will enjoy this one the sea song by doves thanks for tuning in people always appreciate it if you're yet to do so hit that subscribe button

let's go ahead and fire in LSU 42 Clemson 25 a lot of people thought it to be a little bit more high-scoring but throughout the game that felt pretty high-scoring right yeah uh well one of those defenses just didn't let up no you know that warned that everyone said sucked and when no good and they should have been third and it was well here's so he he gave up 37 points to Ole Miss you remember that in 38 to van in 38 to minute that means Vanderbilt and Ole Miss are better than Clemson I know right that's what that means because that's what they are that's what clips and fans said yeah that's exactly what they said Clemson took a 17 to 7 lead with 10 minutes and 38 seconds left in the second quarter so basically in the first 20 minutes of the game Clemson had three punts but they had 256 yards of total offense LSU had four punts and had 114 yards of total offense only one touchdown in that spot and from that point on LSU outscored him thirty five to eight Boro was injured to start the second half which you and I in our group texted about this because there was something obviously wrong yeah he comes out he goes into halftime for I mean a few minutes and immediately comes back out and does nothing but ride the bike and that tells you that's not normal it's something something's wrong and it for those of you that have not had bruised ribs or a fractured rib or whatever whatever he's got you can't extend you can't it hurts to breathe it's all of that stuff and once the the painkillers fired up and everything went numb and he didn't have to feel it anymore that discomfort was gone he could play lights-out from there going on so this wasn't like a end of the game injury kind of thing this was a lot of pain but he got through it like I could only imagine what his his abdomen area looks like oh yeah I bet it's black and blue yep just completely bla Blee I mean that was a lick that was a shot oh yeah that was a and it was perfectly legal perfectly no problems just a good shot and you expect that from Clemson right that's also a dime he dropped in a bucket - yeah you right of it so Clemson came out and here's here's our first quarter stats okay total yards 160 290 in in favor of Clemson Clemson ran the ball 11 times for an average of 2 point 7 yards LSU four times for an average of 1.5 it was not good first quarter not a ton of offense going on their defenses showed up they were feeling each other out Clemson's defense came out and I tweeted out from Pro Football Focus all of the different personnel sets yep that borough had gone against throughout the season and Auburn ran a three one seven against him in and tried to get pressure with three but more so it was delayed blitz it was exotic yes nothing was nothing was normal and that's what he had the least amount of success against now he still had success against Auburn but as far as the numbers go that was the personnel set that he had the least success against all season and it was all he only hit like 40% of his passes right against that on the season but he hadn't seen a ton of it so of course Venables brings that out immediately and I still think that had they not been at like their own three yard line or own two that he would have been able to do something with that first play of the game gets called back because of some weird rule and I just and I know this happened to get so LSU it's happened in the pros this year recently and and every time it happens I don't understand the purpose of the rule the purpose of the rule is we're talking about the offensive linemen too far downfield in college they can only get three yards from the line of scrimmage yeah that's it so what it does recharge is not really hard you should know that three are three are just pretty long way I mean it's you know we're talking when you're when you are locked up when you're locked up with somebody and you are pushing them and you are dominating them then I don't think three yards is very far at all and are you just supposed to just give well he he wasn't like if you go back and watch he wasn't locked up at that point like the one in the NFL that I saw a couple weeks ago the guy was literally steamer I know you're supposed to pass blocking but he was steamrolling the guy he was locked up and he was bicep me yeah but I mean what he supposed to just stop walking the guy well the the difference is the defense can see when a guy is past that certain line that invisible line the defense then automatically would know that that is a play because you cannot throw it when the lineman is that far downfield that's the intent of the rule three yards just doesn't seem like much of no but but also burrow was back there dodging people oh yeah eight so no there's no doubt so at that no defensive back will ever be able to guard him by guard anybody without holding yeah so at some point in time you're just gonna get a defensive holding coffee yet nothing else yeah if that call doesn't happen this game looks a whole lot more like the Georgia game yes and then you think it does because because hey that's like a 28-yard bomb to start the game very first play and then no tell them what happens from that point forward oh no I'm with you but it didn't work and then they got backed up and they're backed up again and their button yeah and they're punting and all that and look from that point on though from from the time that it was 17 to 7 unless you scored him what was it like three straight drives to close the half just hunted twice and then they scored like two more times in a row in I mean if that was it like when it got to 28 to 25 I thought okay like this is Clemson's been in this spot before and I still did like I needed to see burrow come back out after the injury and and do something in I mean were they score in like five plays yeah I mean it was just ridiculous like immediate down the field and could read everything that was happening on the other side let's talk Trevor Lawrence for a little bit Lawrence last year in the Alabama Clemson national championship game that was a blowout etc what I came on and said and what the Clemson fans got irritated at us for was you and I both agreed that okay the scoreboard was a dominating score the game itself wasn't necessarily dominating there were a ton of plays that were fluky and whatever but it made the stats look great right Trevor Lawrence last year eight attitude this is on third down only I'm not even gonna look at the full game stats but on third down passing he was eight of 12 for 240 yards in two touchdowns eight passes for 240 hearts this year just on third down which they converted what one of eleven think this one and not that LSU was a ton better in this LSU was 4 out of 14 but you didn't need to be I mean it doesn't matter but Clemson 1 of 11 on third down Trevor was 2 out of 10 passing for 20 yards and he had a sack that was a 10 yard loss so on third down they ran in Levin plays and gained a total of 10 yards that is domination by LSU and on the other side Lawrence could not hit his guys this time no in in in last year's game it wasn't so much that he hit his guys he put it where they could get to it but it was some of the most miraculous catches you will ever see in your life and they didn't do it this game no and that's that's why you can't rely on that kind of stuff they didn't have a single player in the open field make a big play and now when they were wide open now they got they got free a couple of times and they shook free bad several times not one player made a great contested catch yeah the entire game as soon as Ellis she was able to figure out how to cover them and lock them up a little tighter all those passing numbers went way down now I did notice there was you know obviously people hollering on Twitter and whatnot everybody thinks everything's crazy there were two plays that I noticed that that both ended up going LSU's ways so there was the offensive pass interference already Higgins that would have been a touchdown but they take it off the board and it backs him up to first and 25 or whatever and that was in the second half in the first half there was a play that looked like interference on LSU like offense pass interference that they didn't call in in both instance probably could have been called either way but it was the angle yep like the rebel back judge could only see one side of things truck and that is what it is like if you gonna hand fight down there and we're not and you and I talked before we came on here a lot of this was the pac-12 reps came out in in just let him play the the early the early part of the game they let them play they they didn't call ticky-tacky fouls down then eventually they started getting it because because I think in both of those cases where LSU got a call they were also to first those were both make up the the offensive pass interference is complete a make up call yeah an absolute complete make up call because the previous drive and LSU receiver about to catch a ball and gets tackled by to Clemson guys before the ball even hits to like it's close to him yeah they call nothing very next drive I think an official said that wasn't my call to make but I saw that and I wasn't going to step on another officials toes yep but but I'm damn sure gonna get one back on this side and and he had an opportunity to do it that happens in these games and there were there was a couple of really ticky-tack penalty one of the score the first scoring drive that they had was held on by an LSU pass interference and they replay in it it was about as soft and it's ticky tacky as you could possibly it looked like LSU had the guy's arm bent back but when you watch it I took the guy next to me and he didn't know I was gonna do it okay so he he's not tensing up he's just sitting there and I walked by him and I grabbed his arm to see could I pull it back like that okay he's just sitting there relaxed and he can't do it yeah that dude threw his arm backwards he threw his arm back that you know and so they called the family this thing was called pretty tight it was called pretty tight both ways nobody got screwed in any way shape form or fashion it didn't affect the outcome of the game yeah at all you're 100% right first half total yards clemson had 286 LSU had 359 in the first half that's after having only 90 in that first quarter second half just more the same I mean it was just 269 for LSU 108 for Clemson Clemson ends up with 390 for LSU 628 yards of total offense in this game Clyde Edwards layer has 110 yards rushing and he was a battering ram in that fourth quarter but what's amazing is as is yes in the fourth quarter when they had to kill the clock and Clemson knows we're running the football yeah and we're running the football with the smallest guy on the field and they couldn't stop him yeah I just found that to be shocking that that vaulted defense could not stop this man how long was that last drive do you remember that the one that ran the clock out um I go to a different I'll let you I'll let you probably but it was I mean it was just insane just insane they had let's see if it's got total plays on here they had 32 no 32 rushes for the game LSU did 13 runs in the fourth quarter and 9 passes so 22 plays to only eight for Clemson in the fourth quarter time of possession here's here's the main thing I was looking for in the fourth quarter LSU had the ball for 12 minutes and 9 seconds Clemson had it for 251 yeah I only got the scoring place on here the you got the biggest problem that I had with Clemson's because obviously like they had to have known ok we're not gonna stop these guys so we got to go to our best plays on offense and their best plays early in that third quarter on their scoring drive was running Travis at the end now their bread and butter is not between the tackles running it is you know delays it's getting him in space and all that kind of stuff and they were able to do that they gave him the football one time from like the 10 minute mark of the third quarter all the way through now obviously they tried to pass it to him a couple of times but it wasn't a lot but they hand it off one time and they were only down by three yeah I was I say it's not like they were they weren't three scores at that but no like it was it was mind boggling like it it looked like it so Alabama every year that they have problems with one side of the ball of the other and they've got somebody that is leaving and I bring up Alabama because they always have coaches leaving and they've been in this game for four years in a row right but every year it is oh well he's leaving for another job he wasn't focused on his job that was the first thing I thought of was okay Jeff Scott's already got the USF job see but but I don't think that that's the thing because it's not like I thought that's what everybody would would jump to like not that that's what I thought the problem was I thought this would and nobody has mentioned a word about well I don't think they did because it looked like they threw the kitchen sink at him the problem is is they do the kids are seeking the first half yeah in the first half on both sides of the ball offensively and defensively they ran every exotic blitz you could possibly run they showed every defensive front and formation they could to try to confuse into rattle borough Brady in Zigor in this LSU offense and it slowed him down for three drives yeah and then after three drives it was over defensively on the LSU's defensive side the ball Clemson's officer saw the ball they ran every trick play they had in the book yeah and they better be glad they did too because that's one of the only ways they scored they had two good drives ran to call they beautiful long they had two good drives yeah and after those two good drives they had nothing else other than a weird reverse and they had two rushing plays basically that went for you know 80 something yards yeah 70 something yours yeah this was as far as watching the game goes this game was just as dominant for LSU as it was for Clemson last year yep and it it was kind of boring once it got to be like 35 to 25 yeah it just that you that there was no chance you felt you felt like Clemson had no no shot to come back yeah I mean there was nothing that they could do it was unbelievable and throughout this whole game you know at the 7 penalties for Clemson for 65 yards LSU had 11 for 118 yeah this I mean how else you played kind of a sloppy game yeah like it felt like LSU ran a ton more plays and they ran 16 more but it was 81 265 it wasn't you know this wasn't the Ravens against the Titans like 92 to 58 like this was fairly even for the most part like eight in LSU kind of runs a little more high tempo up tempo then Clemson does so that discrepancy would make sense but man but else you just scores on big place so often or they have big chunk plays I mean Weber throws such a great deep ball that I mean it's it's when with okay he is this is statistically the worst game of the year yeah it is as he averages about seven incompletions a game yeah he had 18 in this at 18 he like it would he was the worst a lot of that was early okay and then it was the beginning of the second half when he was fighting that injury but worst game of the year 463 yards five touchdowns and a rushing today yeah you you called this I mean just nobody could stop him almost perfectly nobody could stop him in like I saw that all year right and when he did it against Georgia it was Oh like it's not surprising to me that they did it against Oklahoma it wasn't really surprising to me that they did it against Alabama your defense was different but we did it against Florida we did it against Auburn we did it against Georgia and those are three defenses that I don't think are they don't take a step back from Clemson's defense at all you put them in the ACC with a competent offense and they got the number one statistical defense as well because it's easy to beat up on high school kids yeah it really is that's just a fact you put anybody against Clemson schedule George all those numbers become inflated this is why I don't like all analytics because all analyst and I have no earthly idea on how some of the analytics say they played the 14th toughest strength of schedule that just doesn't make sense to me it doesn't to me either now they do a lot of Bowl teams but that that's irrelevant we let a hundred teams go to the bowl games no there's only a hundred thirty teams in college football this is the first year that I have really questioned now a lot of it's because my analytics bit me but you realize that some of these numbers lie it's what it's because they they are so they're they're more inflated now than I think they ever have been like it used to be a success rate was a really good indicator of what a team was gonna be able to do I should have seen like Clemson gave up five hundred and twenty yards of offense to Ohio State I should have paid attention to that like a lot more attention I thought we talked about if Ohio State can score touchdowns and not kick field goals they blow him out yeah that game gets ugly the game gets ugly early the the problem that so Venables running two three one seven was was genius nope he did great throw everything he had at him well but the the issue that you run into you have smart guys on the other side of the field not even that okay it is one so we understand and we've talked about this all year that if you bring pressure on burrow obviously it's statistically better yeah but if you just let him sit back in the pocket he is going to pick you apart it's a there's no good way to play him there's I mean you need to have 13 or 14 guys on the field that's what you need but the problem that clemson had with running a three one seven is that some of your back seven there are some slow not super talented guys right like they are smart and they understand how to play the ball but that doesn't mean that they can match up against these LSU wide receivers well no I'll tell you this the secondary did a hell of a job against the wide receivers I'm gonna tell you it was less than two times I noticed a wide receiver wide open agreed now Clemson had guys wide open early when burrows was picking him apart early and it was those guys were wide ass okay you tell my Lawrence Lawrence yeah yes when Clark but Ella's bro burrow was throwing guys open all those big deep passes he was dropping those guys were covered man yeah they were covered they were covered bad all those slant passes we didn't get the Yaak yards that we usually get because because dude is covered what's because they understand how to play their role now that's Venables all day long he gets the credit for that he gets the glory for that but the problem is is you can't stop it when he can throw the football through a keyhole and you have receivers that are just that talented there's nothing you can do about it yeah yeah now you're 100% right if you would have told me before the game started so I was looking for a prop bet to bet against one another okay yeah and I basically wanted to bet all of the all of the passing and rushing stats against borough and Trevor Lawrence because Trevor Lawrence was so you know everyone said you know borough won the heisman he had the year but Lawrence is the better quarterback Lawrence is the better player that's okay well let's find some props here and I couldn't find any that would let me they would let me compete with receivers if I wanted to and I had to pick an individual receiver but I couldn't do a head-to-head between borough and Lawrence for touchdowns passing yards rushing yards completions completion percentage no there was no statistical category and in it it allows that bet I could go in for Sunday in the playoff games and I could do that yeah and and I could have done it in other games it wouldn't let me do it here you know why somebody in Vegas knew five touchdowns to zero touchdowns is a possibility yeah it was and we can't accept that BER can't accept that action borough is but without a doubt in my mind the this is the best year from a player that I have ever seen best single year in the hundred and fifty years of college football he did not have a bad game you can call the Auburn game a bad game they still had over five George stole office it was better than this game he still had he still had a ton of stunner yards his completion percentage and almost no incompletions yeah I mean it was insane he threw what 6/10 interceptions the entire season 60 touchdowns yeah it's it seems it seems good I I have to do one INT for every 10 touchdowns I because I am currently a prisoner of the moment I would say that we will never see this again but the way that offenses are improving yeah I'm not saying we'll never see it again but I know that as an LSU fiend I have never seen it I've never seen no we've never seen it one of the stats I found funny going into halftime I saw this tweeted out I wish I could remember who tweeted I'd give him credit for it but only two quarterbacks in the history of national championship game football okay has ever thrown for 250 yards and rushed for 50 that is Vince Young jobber Oh Jo did it in the first half it's it took it took Vince Young that game sealing game-winning rushing touchdown to get him to 50 yeah and burrow had it in the first half yeah it's unreal he's he really is in and he's not getting praised like Andrew got praised when he came out and talked about how he's you know the best quarterback prospect since Peyton Manning I don't know if he's gonna do much , and stuff I don't I don't know any of that I'm gonna tell you from watching him play football I watched every second of all 15 games when you watched him all his last season - oh yeah there is that's one of the more surprising things is that last season he was okay he was good not he was not great it was good yeah 16 2006 interceptions yeah I mean it was 57 percent completion person he still had a good and he didn't have he didn't have an off season with his offense you showed up last year in May and are in August at LSU yeah in August they start playing football in August the the fourth week of August is when college football kicks off yeah he was there for three weeks he had no offseason with his yeah I mean it's it's remarkable no it's it's pretty impressive that the storyline is is just you can't you can't say anything else about it it was it was fun to see it well it's so when I say that I had never seen a quarterback do this one obviously we've never seen a quarterback do this and tell us you know there's no know if you would have thought if you would have thought who would the greatest quarterback performance ever come out of like obviously you would have came at us yeah you depictive you know picked a hundred of the 130 schools before you got to LSU yeah because they have never because I mean we've seen these things happen in like Hawaii and stuff like that but no I mean so difficult to be able to do it in the SEC against these defense against these defenses that's right the fact that it was done well against these defenses I'll tell you it not to cut you off but it's it's remarkable that the only two other players that I would put on this list are Cam Newton and Tim Tebow who also did it in this conference against the best now Vince Young also had a really really good year Vince Young had a good year but his numbers numbers wise the entire season was not was not close to Cam Newton at all camp cam is so far above Tim Tims as a body of work because he was in college for four years and he and he played a lot as a freshman and was a three year starter to be fair like with the Cam Newton thing cam did not have nearly the talent around him no bro did no burrow was able to utilize every ounce there different quarterbacks they're different cam didn't have the accuracy cams not dropping that ball 45 yards down the field in a bucket no no he's just he's just not he's dangerous in a different kind of way the other quarterback that that everybody was not everybody I think I think clay Travis's show was talking about this morning but single season Steve McNair's last year at Alcorn State that's that's a whole different thing yeah but he had I would have never watched one second or heard he like 12 games he had like 47 hundred yards passing and 44 touchdowns and like it he was he was unreal there's a reason why it was an alcohol a quarterback they wouldn't like number three in the draft that's right you know and so he was unbelievable but yet we were talking in our group note went it was it was the guys I watched the game with last night they came over I was trying to find out who the real comparison of him borough is and I and I said I think it's me yeah well so first we have to stop with the if it's a black quarterback I can only compare him to black quarterbacks and white quarterback no I really because it's not Tom Brady because tom has never been this athletic and coming out of college Tom didn't have these accolades Tom went in the seventh round he ain't going to born overall and all of the guys that's gone number one overall they don't look like Perot they don't play like borough they don't I thought last I said this last night to the guys over I think it's McNair yeah I really do yeah because McNair was I don't know how accurate mean there was but he was accurate enough he made big plays and he could do it with his legs or his arm and and he was a smart quarterback who I felt like figured the game out kind of quickly and I mean that you give that's to do and he's gonna be able to dissect whatever defense you throw at him and so I I you know if the game was obviously so different when he was playing in Tennessee just just a completely different it was more geared towards defenses that's right so but he's the guy that if you told me give me an honest comparison I I think that's it I think that makes sense to go on a wrap this up we'll end up with with discussing what a disservice the sport of college football does to their fans okay the the numbers this year were better than last year you had twenty five point five eight eight million viewers on ESPN last night last year was twenty five point two eight million so it was better by like three hundred thousand but good gracious one they do their media day on Saturday two days before the game so the game is on Monday so you have NFL playoff games on Saturday and Sunday so on all of the news all of the good stories that would come out of media day that could go out through the press through the media are completely washed up nobody cares know everybody is watching NFL stuff on Saturday and Sunday so any story that came out over the weekend nobody's gonna know like that is the first thing the second thing and I understand that this is TV right that obviously this sport has gotten bigger because of TV money and all of that but the the idea of a championship game and it's the same thing with the Final Four right and they do it on Monday night because it's Monday Night Football and Monday is a good TV night and etc etc but you had a game that kicked off at 7:18 Central Time last night that is 8-18 Eastern which is where the majority of the population is located is on East Coast time but this is a school night this is a work night I stayed up I'm used to saying up until midnight my wife ain't you know my kids ain't - put your marquee matchup two undefeated teams and all that to where the game ends at what was it 11:30 15 I think was the last snap was it yeah I don't remember being though I think the actual time was kick off at 7 18 and the last snap was at 11:14 p.m. that sounds about right 11:14 so after midnight on the East Coast I don't have such a beef with that none of that stuff bothers me I don't know when to do media day I don't know I don't know the best way around this new media day on Friday so that it can get in the news cycle but yeah if you're gonna do that's fine because you're competing with the playoffs no matter what they should have bumped it up a week yeah they should have bumped it up - it should have been last month well the reason that it wasn't last Monday is so there were all these stories about well the Saints had a game and they couldn't like for whatever reason dude this and that it wasn't that it was that if it was previously scheduled thing if it was previously scheduled a year in advance which this stuff is then this Saints know we can't have a home game this day of it it's playoff game I mean but here's no they would have had they would have the Sunday game or a Saturday game wait here they could have played the Saturday game because of that probably that would have been real easy fixes a game on Sunday the reason why the game was this Monday instead of last Monday is because initially every playoff semifinal was gonna be on either January 1st or December 31st and then they realized holy crap doing these games on December 31st is really bad for ratings so they they move stuff back January 1st we're having a different conversation New Year's Day is when the semifinals should be held yeah and we talked about this before yes but they're but they're but they're married to the Rose Bowl which in the Rose Bowl is the single Bowl that controls everything else scheduling-wise yeah because they have to kick off at 5 o'clock so that right up right at the 4th quarter you have the sunset over the mountains and it's it's what they want so therefore you can't have a night game behind them because it's too late yeah you can if it's a shitty bowl game that nobody cares about but you can't have like the other semifinal game but you also don't want the first semifinal game to be at noon so all you need is to tell the Rose Bowl but we make a billion dollars a year and you're a parade and we're paying you yes you're going to be a three o'clock game or a Dinoco eight o'clock game or you can be a December 31st game now can still you don't know I would even give them an option you don't get an option if you won't a if you want to be one of these bowl games that are going to host a playoff or you can get rotated out completely and we will find another Bowl game yeah that will take over the spot what the Las Vegas is about to have a big-ass Stadium you know what we will take the Rose Bowl and now you can put your game whenever the hell but semifinal look we're still gonna do this semifinal at this time so if you want yours on New Year's Day at sunset guess what you're going to be competing with a semifinal game so I really hope Washington and Penn State is a better draw than whatever playoff game you get yeah congratulations on that that's I'm with you I'm with you I agree like I I just push them around for the longest they push these kids around like crazy they won't push the organization's around at all they're weak as well water it's crazy it's crazy the reason that I have such a problem with this is because you should be doing things to advance the sport that that should be the goal no matter what and I feel like it is the goal what night would you have the champs up game on like you just can't you know you can't get people through the NFL playoffs but I mean what do you you just can't compete with the NFL playoffs you won't get a number I assure you you won't get a number so do you not in all of these stadiums host the NFL playoffs also are in NFL team so you're gonna end up with one of these situations where one of these teams might be in that game you don't compete with the NFL I mean having a know Monday night is not a problem people stay low people are gonna stay up late for the Super Bowl they're gonna be out till midnight it's gonna be fine they're gonna go to work the next day or they're gonna take off okay you're gonna make a business decision as an adult that is just part of it people who live on the west coast we've been having late stuff for a decade all right yeah TV has dominated things forever so so that I have no problem with that my my problem is the the scheduling of all this stuff we let a few bowls dictate everything yeah and those few bowls monkey at all that's what drags his out to January 14th yeah that's the problem this thing should have ended two weeks ago yeah I mean you're really right and all those crappy bowls that happen after the semi-final no no it's either got to be great games after that or no games after that no because everybody is done with crappy football crappy football has to be over by time you're played by time New Year's gets here crappy football still brings numbers which is why that's fine I don't mind that and all those people can watch all those shitty games December 25th December 28th December 30th right but if we're if we're talking cember 16 if we're talking about business decisions and whatnot that's part of it and the good games can be later the good games can be later there's a bunch of good games that happen December 19th yeah yeah or whatever that Saturday was it was it was really weird this year having only four games on January 1st yeah and none of them matter none of matter at all January one should be if you want to fix this January one should be the semifinal games you can have your to power six or our whatever it is New Year's Day you know bowl games that are not in the circle of friends basically you're gonna have the same four bcs bowls on New Year's Day yeah all for that those are the only bozo New Year's Day and the four bcs bowls two of them are going to be playoff games yeah this is not that hard but the somebody has to stand up and be a grown up in the room and go to the Rose Bowl to go screw themselves yeah I'm with you you're gonna take my check you're not gonna not take my check yeah so so we're gonna do it we're gonna do it at this time and we don't give a about your sunset yeah agreed agreed what was the numbers twenty five point five eight eight million viewers that we just talked about this to twenty five point two eight four last year so this year three hundred thousand viewers better than last year virtually same virtually the same and they were both you know by middle of third quarter basically over yep so yeah this it was it was interesting a towards Iran fantastic it's such a such a fantastic story I mean you can't write this no I mean you know like if Disney tried to write one of those old-school cheesy Disney sports movies it's missing and this was it somebody would have been like that's not me - cheesy that's not real get it out of here I mean you you had to have the perfect just every destiny you think this is Sun and moons all lining the Saints sent Joe Brady to Baton Rouge for a camp to kind of help them out with our POS and in whatever else and had they not sent Joe brave they did that they did that to get him some money because he was a part-time employee that made like $26,000 all these NFL coaches and analysts and I still make a lot of money when you're the entry-level guy you don't make deck boys yeah so they try to go get one of those jobs they go ask you to work for free and then the net said you knew this so you could make some money but but had they not sent him and it was just some other random guy could have been anybody could have been anybody else exactly but if it was anybody else I'd doubt that they have the season that they have this year probably but Joe burrows as I'm saying like it it's destiny it's a way it all happened had had Mike Riley at Nebraska wanted Joe Brady another borough then you don't have borough any of this like fail and Ohio State it had had borough not gotten injured yeah at Ohio State and he won the job over Haskins you don't have this had or Geron gotten the job at USC had Oliva not taking a chance on him which I don't get me wrong we still don't like Joel Eva that's fine but no I feel differently now after Evert read that article you sent me that's okay yeah because you were before that it was screw that guy it's different though man I mean there's always gonna be a pain there I I grew up in a world in which Les Miles was the most important coach in my life yeah I grew up with a person without a father without a male figure in my life and I had coaches of teams that I loved I know that's pathetic I know that's sad but I keep I think you than you I grow up I grew up with the it was basically it was basically less bill in in Terry Francona were the three men in my life that I learned how to be a man from you know like that how many kids in Alabama were the same way with burr burr yeah it's the same thing back then yeah like it's and so and he he's the guy that fired my coach yeah now am I glad that all this happened in and we even talked been like yeah he had to go he just refused to make any changes I think because he was too close situation is why you don't do friends people you'll be very careful about that so anyway and so after that he was dead to me there's nothing I mean I I physically would have pushed him out of window and went to bed the next night and just slept like a baby yeah like it was different but I understand that now yeah a little bit past a little bit not all the way past it football is a business and so was basketball which is what cost to leave his job so um but but yeah the order on stuff the the Joe Brady stuff the Ensminger stuff the fact that order on was was willing to drop Canada immediately like it where we're less miles was too close to the situation didn't want to fire his buddies yeah miles had not miles Iran has been willing to change whatever needs to be changed I mean in his first three years it's a it's it is it is crap or get off but you're going to perform or you're going to be gone everybody is held to this obscenely high standard yeah and it's what he was willing to but he was willing to pay him though oh yeah that's the one thing I appreciate it he took way less money than anybody else was gonna take but he made damn sure no no you're not just saving all this money that I'm not taking you giving it to these guys yeah you giving it to them and it has worked out he paid can look beautiful well but he helped candidate to the hiring high standard that he was getting paid for you didn't meet that hit the bricks my friend yeah you got that right now Ensminger everybody talks crap of it and I understand Ensminger way back when but will football so different from way back when when he used to be an OC yeah and don't get me wrong it was not a good OC back then yeah the game was so oh it was here forever and I'm with you but what I'm saying is he not only adapted and evolved but like when he was thrown in as the OC in 2016 or Iran set records yeah like that team set offensive records and it wasn't passing records no but it was still 450 yards yeah we look like Wisconsin it was but made me smile they they took the personnel that they had and Ensminger found ways to get them the football and it was in st. now it didn't work against Alabama and that was everybody's problem with the last few years but like nobody worked against Alabama for a long time but order on in that bunch found a way to to mesh and and I don't think that this is just a flash in the pan kind of this isn't a Gene Chizik kind of thing like go away could they win eight or nine games next year only yep absolutely that does that's not what all burned it all burn work from from we're losing the single greatest player exact not just an LSU history but in all of college football history if that's not worth two or three games I don't know what to tell you yeah I don't know then he wasn't then he wasn't that great to begin with I don't and I'll fight somebody on that I don't think that now on on the Alabama side the reason Alabama is able to maintain like I wouldn't be surprised if next year Alabama loses three ballgames yeah because you lose to uh who was the best quarterback in Alabama history and it is also the reason why Alabama never had a quarterback like that before because they built teams that did not get why that's right oh yeah that's right in LSU has never had a team that relied on one guy so I am curious what its gonna be that's why we were always able to be what we used to be but if you want to win you can't be that anymore you can be Georgia which congratulations if he went in the East he'd have three losses every damn year yeah that's the problem Georgia still went 12 and 2 we all talk like Georgia had this awful year but when the when they went 12 and 2 because they're in the East though Gary if they if all burn in them flip spots they got a worst record than Auburn because they don't beat Bama that probably not probably they would have had him early they don't they just don't know I think yeah you might be right you might be right but yeah this was a good cuz they're in these I don't think that this was a flash in the pan for LSU I think that this is something that can continue to build order on in that bunch going forward now it doesn't mean that they're gonna go 11 and 1 everyone here mom the thing that I'm most proud of with with OU and it's it's the staff he's built but the most important key to any successful business all right I know this from business there's only one attribute that everybody in the building has to have if everybody is good at the same thing you're gonna fail yeah alright but everybody can be good at different things and you still fail the single most important attribute that everybody who walks in the door has to have for you to be at least 90 percent of the people is flexibility you have to be able to adapt yeah you have to be able to change when things change and I'm gonna tell you Brady made it abundantly clear when he when he won the assistant coach of the Year award that this is Stephen zingers award people think I don't Brady doesn't call plays he might have designed those offensive schemes he played because he cost some third downs and some some third downs how many third downs did we have this year cuz I don't think it was a lot it was not a ton and if you base it off at this game he was 4 out of 14 yeah but but we don't we just don't have a lot of third downs no there's been games where I've joked with you when we speak the hell out of people are we gonna have more third downs or more incompletions and I bet both of them could be less than five just because they score so fast so often they get yeah and so I think Stephens eager is gonna be just fine he's the one I'm afraid of losing but here's the other thing and not any point in time did you see him get upset him get mad that spotlight went no he didn't give a damn he's an old school football guy he don't want to talk to the media he don't want to go up here and take that award he don't want it he don't want his picture taken no he's supposed to go to work that's it now you're a hundred percent right that's a sound trying to look up the Alabama LSU game to see how many third downs because I don't think it was very many that yeah that game or visions that's it but I can't I can't get it pull up for me that not good but at this point it doesn't matter no it's no big deal is there anything else that we need to hit no I think we're I think I think we're OK on this I uh I got here LSU third downs shoot we were eight for 15 we had 15 third downs y'all had fifteen third downs you were six for 15 yeah 15 third downs is more than I thought even still 8 for 15 is pretty good over 850 is really good but bro it's have any completions and they came yeah that makes sense that makes sense so to wrap it up obviously this is the the last that we will talk about the now we're still gonna do a recap of the bowl games we're gonna do a recap of the season what we what our thoughts were and what it ended up and all that kind of mess and we will continue talking in the offseason but congratulations thank you sir we have been doing this for four seasons now I you had to put up with with my team being in the national championship game every year every year up until this one and this year it was your bunch and I am very happy I think that you finally got this one it was this was a lot of fun it was a lot of fun seeing you enjoy football the way that you did this season that numb the numbers that come through this you know where they have they beat so they beat the four all four preseason top one two three and four yeah teams they beat five out of the top eight schools and then Auburn and Texas or we're throw-in sovereigns atop I don't know 15 school probably talk to well school yeah I am Amon and then Texas A&M and Texas this is this this is Express ease number 11 yes so this is the greatest single resume of all time people could argue is this the greatest team and I do believe that this because of what they went through the gauntlet that they ran and how they beat people I'm gonna say this again I said it for the game in the preview I'm gonna get back on this one more time this game included at no point in time did they ever trail in the fourth quarter or the other team have the ball with a chance to score and take the lead they were always at least two or three scores above everyone yeah the entire season Clemson no different they never had the ball in the fourth quarter with a chance to score and even bring it within two scores it was they had a chance to bring it within two scores but they they didn't have a shot to bring it within one so cuz by the time you got to the fourth quarter it was thirty five twenty five that's right they did have a ten point game so it was a ten point game but then I thought it was seventeen almost as soon as that's when they got the 17 so they got 17 pretty quick that's right it's alright yeah it was it was dominant that's the most dominating performance I've ever seen from a team from start to finish yeah it's uh it was it was fun to get to witness it with you I appreciate it it was a fun ride this is the greatest single this is the most fun championship I've ever had I could have like two good teams so you know I've rode some Red Sox seasons that were unbelievable and and David Ortiz is probably probably the most important athlete in my life and then all the years with Tom and the Patriots you know I got to see one great Celtics team yeah yeah but this one this one's the most fun one this one this one meant I think I was at the Sugar Bowl where they beat Oklahoma and that wasn't as fun is this alright that is gonna wrap it up of course go over to winning cures everything calm you guys know what's going on over there we've still

y-TGWxrXviw | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y-TGWxrXviw | Do this and change your life - motivation video 2021 | Lee brown | There may be a time when you want to bother a good mother a good brother or sister or you we were a bad shallow you didn't do a good job or you live you were dishonest you stole no one knows this but you know something you feel good about that you know the real dog in me to do that. Something you're just really regrets that we make a list of all those things all of us have some of that. My say there's some good in the worst of us and some bad in the best of us. So none of us the skate. Now here's something I want you to do I want you to become involved in an active process to get some water out of your life. So there's any error in your life that you need to clean up. Start working on it I'm going home tonight to clean my closets. If you got in the car because it's already you have please. Good let's go home let that be our tests this week. The first law of the universe is gonna go home and clean that closet up get the Karlstad leading some of this job go to make some room for something else no that with people there some people cluttering up your life they serve no purpose whatsoever they're just holding an occupying the space of somebody used bolt positive nurturing and contributing could be holding that space you don't even have time to look to see what else is out there because you all have all of these people surrounding you that's not in the neighboring unit grow. So look at what is it I need to get out of my life just start cleaning the stuff all getting the draws together you dress to draw just given stuff together just get him together maybe are your car got to clean the car to got a lot of stuff and I live in my car you know can't put anything in my trunk I got all kinds of things like this to my children by going to trial you know. So I just say okay let me just give this the go see whatever you have in your environment is a reflection of your consciousness. So you got all that chaos that represents some dis organized flooded section of your mind let's get all this out of there all right work to get that out clean that up any body that you feel very strongly about have some negative feelings about let's look at some good reasons to forgive them number one you must try and see what has happened see things from another person's point of view and look at it from their point of view that's that's one area that's number one. Then number 2. Holding a grudge hurts you. It doesn't hurt them. So just for good health and peace of mind let it go. Dealing of resentment or anger or hatred is called to me the load of bitterness with van. Every fall and winter 10 produces a chemical in our brains that impacts the body's immune system. And besides this person you're hating they probably are not even aware of it in some ways having a good time. I don't even know you're really hitting the mute turn. That's what I'm saying. And there you are killing yourself. Making yourself vulnerable to various types of illnesses. What are yourself in bad health and I'd say that person is not worth your sacrificing your health or one minute of peace of mind one minute of angle robs you of 60 seconds of happiness. So decide it doesn't matter let it go and experience the dignity and the magnanimous sense of character a big enough to move on and get on with your life letting it go so you can grow next up. Lack of self acceptance how does it show up how does it manifest itself see what all of us have greatness within us. But when you don't come to grips with your greatest if you don't work to develop it if you're not seeking it out if you're not finding where it is if you're not trying to located you're not experimenting with your life to try and find out what's good for you. I'm saying that you're positioning yourself to be a miserable person an unfulfilled person. How do we do it procrastination. We just put things all over and over and over again why because we haven't accepted it we don't feel deserving. We don't feel that we are good enough. So we sabotage ourselves by not ever taking care of business we get real busy doing a lot of things well we don't have any time but I never forget augmented on the book call university success is that many of us never ever discover our greatest because we become side tracked by secondary activity. We start doing so many things we just give our time away until we don't have any time for ourselves or any time to do the things that we want to do and every time you put it off and move it back while do it one day only I'm going to get to it I'm saying to you that one day you look around and there goes the year there goes 2 years their goals 3 years. So is this something you want to do do it now do it right now don't put it off don right now where you are they'll never be a perfect ideal time whatever you have going for you right now that's enough work on that I do work on it work on it work on. Another way in which it shows up. And that is that because of the relationships we form people we have around thinking about 2 guys Larry little he went to. But in college he was a football player we'll be watching high school where I graduated from Larry ended up playing for the Miami Dolphins became an all star Vincent.great guy Larry really was the most talented guy in that position ability watching high school's guiding Willie Covington that was far more talented he was stronger physically he was faster but will it coming to never ever made out of high school why last he started running with the wrong crowd. It comes with what we call stop running with the wrong crowd. People led him to the penitentiary. And ultimately to a premature death got the word few months ago he was shot and killed in liberty city on 60 second street where I was born on the floor my twin brother. Really Covington had great talent great potential running with the wrong crowd. Watch out with the relationships you have what kind of person are you becoming because of the relationship that you have right now do those people contribute to you they help you grow and develop yourself what kind of person are you become. People who have not accept greatness for themselves these people don't study ladies and gentleman these people don't study they don't have time for personal growth and development there have time to work on their minds. That too busy for that people can affect this appears can affect design firm it can affect is just working consciously to overcome the poverty consciousness that I was raised in. The feeling constantly I'm saying les brown you deserve this is no need for you to be afraid. It's not too good to be true it's troll because you earned it the old fashioned way you have worked for. But every once in awhile it comes up when I least expected my heart started beating fast and I start questioning myself and doubting myself and I have to catch myself you've got to be consciously conscious. So let's look at how we can begin to evaluate our self esteem. Also approval number one to determine the height of your self approval it's important that you evaluate yourself because you know you quite well but it's almost impossible to do it totally by itself you must get some caring feedback. Find somebody close enough to you that is a very few of them around you that you value their opinion and ask them how do they see you how do they rate Jews in terms of your self esteem and then compare what you have. With what they say. See there are things many times that people can see in Austin we can't say because it's a blind spot. If I were to be talking to you and my breath is offensive you don't tell me and then I go around not only do you know if everybody else around here. And then when I walk into what people they say well that's not the right. I don't know a lot of people say it will last winter we thought you we want you to come to the body but you can't. Now all you have you just done the service you need to gargle with ammonia something. Yeah. We have those areas of our lives that we need to get some feedback. We did some coaching with someone to let us know that. And now why don't people just volunteer that one they don't want to hurt your feelings. One they don't want to embarrass you. There are some people you know you know they don't want to hear. They're going to argue with you they're going to become defensive and you're one of those people just decide to shut up and. Next thing is a good barometer to check out how you feel about yourself it's how well you handle compliments. When someone pays you a compliment can you handle it well. When he was coming down the hallways what a beautiful dress you have a well it's nothing I caught it on sale nothing. I don't ask you did you get that on sale it's just it's a beautiful dress can you handle compliments well that's a good barometer. About your self esteem can you handle criticism. Can you give criticism. Next thing is. What are you expectations. What do you expect to get from life. What do you expect to get from your business what do you expect to get from your relationship what is your ideal day. What is it that you expect. This experience this journey veteran Bob. People that. That have a strong sense of self approval they have high expectations for themselves and from life and from. A lot of people don't expect much from life. So they don't feel so much better for much a lot of people just showing up in life a lot of people just get up in the morning and they go through the day to go to the job just to pull a check down watching the clock coming yeah. So you want to be a different kind of person are you your life you want to get something out of this if you want to do it is worth your time your energy you've got some expectations from this I will not let people waste my time so I want to meet with me with me what is this dealing with I want to get to the bottom line. Because if it does not measure up to my expectations I'm not going to invest my time. I don't have the luxury to waste time. I'm expecting some great things from life. As I have to spend some time working on myself and developing myself. So examine your expectations versus your wishes. Some people wish they could do better. But some people expect to do better.

Jtos_gu1_XI | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jtos_gu1_XI | Ep 77 'Understanding the Difference Between Common Cold and COVID-19 in Parents & Children'/ Dr Nelu | hello and welcome well during winter it is commonplace that parents are concerned about the health and well-being of their children due to the spread of colds flus and viruses 2020 however has presented an exceptional set of circumstances collectively for everyone as covert 19 has created an exceptional amount of heightened worries and concerns so the question is do you know what the difference is between the common cold and covered 19. and if your answer is no then tune in this interview is definitely for you to help explain this to us today we welcome our special guest dr naloo a pediatric doctor with over 10 years experience now dr nelu is here today to create awareness and to explain the difference between the common cold and covert something we all really need to know and understand and also to provide education around common questions you may have and to provide a credible relatable and accessible source of information to the public on this critical topic thank you for joining us today welcome how are you very good thanks for having me this is wonderful and as we're just saying this is something this time of year more so than ever um that we really need to understand the difference between this um and it's been said before um that you have a love for educating parents and and patients about common health concerns um but covert 19 is just a little more than just the common health concern as we have sort of found out in recent months so um i'd love to understand from your perspective what are the common concerns that you have found families are having like during this time yeah look this has been a really unprecedented time for everyone and it's i guess it's probably like nothing any of us have been through in our lifetime so it's quite an interesting time for the general public for doctors for parents everyone um but there's a lot of concerns and i think a lot of the concerns come from what we're seeing overseas as well and i think it's important to remember that what we're going through in australia is quite different um our rate of transmission and rate of debts is much much lower than overseas and although things are ramping up in victoria at the moment we're still we're really in a very lucky state to be in to be in australia yes and agree and so yeah yes i think a lot of the concerns are coming from that and the numbers that we're seeing overseas and parents are worried about you know what if my child gets covered 19 what does it look like if they have it what are the effects if they get it etc so there's a lot a lot of concerns out there and i'm happy to go through some of them okay wonderful now to start with we published your article and the title is understanding the difference between the common cold and covert 19 in parents and children now for someone who hasn't read the article yet can you please give us an overview what it's about and just tell us what inspired you to write it yeah well i was approached by kiddopedia to to write something on this topic because obviously it's something that's very important and relevant at the moment so i'm really glad that i had a chance to do that and the article really goes into what is a common cold and what is the coronavirus and really the the tricky thing that is that there isn't much of a difference which is what's making this all very confusing at the moment and i also discuss what the treatments are in that it's generally supportive um which means that there isn't really much in the way of treatment which is the same with all viruses and what sort of groups of children are more susceptible and and also what parents can do to help reduce the spread as best they can at home and to also just bring up these questions with the kids and use it as an educational opportunity as well wonderful and you've mentioned in the article that um coronavirus is the name for a family of viruses and some coronavirus strains we have known about for years and are harmless however covert 19 is the new circulating strain that can cause serious disease in humans so initially what is the difference between coronavirus and other common viruses yeah so look there are hundreds and thousands of viruses that circulate and every year particularly in winter we see children with any number of those viruses which i i say is harmless but i mean any illness can be harmful in any capacity in in anyone really but what we see come through emergency doors is generally what we call a common cold which can be anything from a sore throat red ears headache body aches vomiting diarrhea could all these viruses can cause any host of those symptoms um and there's about 10 or so that we test for routinely not in every child with the virus but in specific groups of children and then apart from that there are hundreds and hundreds more that we rarely test for we don't really need to know exactly what it is because we know the way that these these common viruses behave coronaviruses are a family of viruses and there are some that we've known about for years that are that do cause fairly benign cough cold runny nose fever illnesses and and we know that sometimes children who are really young so really young babies children who have other medical problems or who are on immune suppression medication for example can get quite sick with these viruses but the vast majority of children are pretty well enough to be at home with fluids and pain relief and they can manage the virus at home coronavirus as far as we've seen the current covert 19 stars virus that we're seeing circulating is generally more mild in children so it does cause a bit of a common cold type picture um i keep saying during that inverted commerce because there isn't really a common cold virus per se um so the corona the current covered 19 does cause this very similar picture in children the tricky thing with that is it does also can also cause other side effects that we're seeing mostly overseas we haven't seen that here because we're not getting the same numbers as we are overseas and this current one is causing a lot of severe illness and death unfortunately in the older population so although it is a bit like a usual virus there's that other complications that we're seeing yes and there are still a lot of unanswered questions um which is the biggest challenge for everyone at the moment and with regards to children i've read that the mayo clinic in the u.s has reported that although rare infants under the age of 1 are at higher risk of severe illness from covert 19 which as you mentioned before doesn't necessarily relate to school-aged children but studies have also showed that newborns may be infected with a virus during childbirth or exposure to sick caregivers after delivery not so much here in australia as you've just alluded to this is more so overseas but it's just important for us to be aware of what is happening overseas uh here in australia um and also older children who get the virus um have symptoms that don't either that tend to be mild and cold like um and they sort of can recover within a week so it is broad depending on the age of the child and obviously on the strain so i just wanted to ask in general what are your thoughts on this yeah i think that's what's making this so confusing you can have zero symptoms and be positive or you can be really sick with it so and i think that's what's really confusing for parents and for health professionals as well and suddenly we've gone from a winter where every snuffle is just put down to a simple virus but now we need to think of every single snuffle that's potentially being covered that's it not necessarily because the child will be super unwell because we know that children in general have more of a mild illness but we do know that the spread of it to the older population or those with other medical problems it can make them really quite sick and we're just seeing more evidence of that coming up so it's yeah it's it's really hard to distinguish the difference between a coronavirus covert 19 illness and a irregular virus yes and you've mentioned earlier in this chat that there's no common cold per se that there are hundreds of viruses that can cause a whole host of different different symptoms from cough red red throat runny nose sore ears vomiting diarrhea rash and many other symptoms so i'd love to know um what coveted symptoms should parents look out for that would present differently than a common cold flu or virus then well that's the tricky thing there isn't they all overlap so the the most common symptoms of clover 19 are runny nose cough sore throat and then there's also fatigue as well in there but honestly so many viruses can give you those symptoms so i think at the moment we have to just for the public health safety we have to assume that any of those symptoms are covered 19 until proven otherwise so for many parents we get with younger children um they have a runny nose coughs all of these things are constant um throughout winter as you've just mentioned but if it's a new cough or a new fever or a new sore throat um that they should maybe consider getting the child tested is that right absolutely i would say at this stage just given particularly if you're in victoria um given the situation at the moment any cough runny nose um sore throat difficulty breathing all of that should be tested really for covered more for the for the child's sake but also for public health safety as well so this is particularly important for those living in places where community transmission is occurring as you've mentioned um such as victoria and we've seen some numbers increasing in new south wales recently too but some children particularly through winter have an ongoing sniffle or cough and one infection can really roll into the next two so in the situa in this situation then is it um one thing to watch out for worsening of fever and cough as well this is another thing that parents should be sort of taking note of yeah absolutely look like you said it's not uncommon for a child to have a snotty noise for 50 weeks of the year we see that a lot especially with children in child care um but like you said anything new absolutely any new respiratory type symptoms so anything sort of head throat chest and i'd get that checked and consider that it could be covered 19 until you've got a negative test and definitely if the symptoms are becoming worse maybe don't hesitate to get tested then would you say yeah absolutely and i guess the other thing to remember is that just like with cover 19 or with any illness if a parent is worried about their child they should always seek medical medical support i i don't think this situation should scare parents from going to emergency departments and going to see doctors because regardless of covert 19 or anything if you're worried about your child they need to be looked at yes so just to reiterate the symptoms of covert 19 include fever cough runny nose sore throat difficulty breathing and fatigue symptoms obviously more so in adults and in that instance that may also include nausea and diarrhea and confusingly um for some people there may be no symptoms at all so and even more confusing um the hundreds of harmless everyday viruses that can cause all of these symptoms to as is a crossover and this is where many people are becoming confused is that right yeah agree agree and it's hard for parents it's really hard to help professionals but i think the safest thing at the moment like i've said before is to just assume it's covered 19 until we know it's not and children's temperature can rise above 37.5 degrees for a multitude of different reasons how do parents know when they should seek um medical advice from a practitioner with regards to the increase of temperature um rising in children yeah look that's a really good question because that's something that brings kids into emergency a lot um so we call a fever anything above 38 so and if you have to be a bit careful how you measure it as well a lot of the forehead thermometers uh can be up to a degree off um so underarm or in the mouth is probably better but yes so temperature over 38 is what we'd call a fever ordinarily i would say that a fever in itself in a well child doesn't necessarily need to be looked at unless there are other concerning features and but at the moment with the covert situation i'd say any child with a fever should and especially if they've got respiratory symptoms should have a um a covered swab done and so i'd say any temperature above 38 particularly with the snotty nose cough sore throat or difficulty breathing should always be looked at alternatively any child who doesn't have a fever and a parent is worried about should also be looked at so i think it's important to not get hung up just on the number of the fever itself a child with a temperature of 40 can have quite a simple viral tonsillitis and be okay enough to be managed at home or a child with a temperature of 37 can be really thick so i would i would never take a fever by itself to mean a child is really unwell or not it's always in combination of other symptoms how are they looking how are they eating and drinking are they making what nappy is passing urine it's sort of in combination with everything um and we see a lot of families who come to emergency with a high fever and a really well happy child that we're not as concerned about and we see children who look really sick who don't have a favor at all so it's really up to the parents gut instinct on whether there's something else going on apart from just the number of the fever if that makes sense yes absolutely um in general is covered dangerous in children then look what we're seeing is generally no and it's more the older population who get the really severe covert 19 disease but like i said with the numbers overseas we are definitely seeing children who do become quite sick with it and have some other complications we haven't quite seen it to that extent here just purely because our numbers of infection in this age group is much much lower than overseas and so in general i'd say cover 19's much more mild in children they can have anything from no symptoms to mild respiratory symptoms we're not seeing the severe disease as much but it is something that all pediatric doctors and pediatric hospitals emergency centers are preparing for just in case that does happen um the healthcare workforce is is definitely preparing for children who potentially become unwell and with regards to transmitting um the virus also i've read that children transmit the virus the same way that adults do which is through droplets when they sneeze or if they touch a surface um and then touch their face and especially in younger children we don't know we all know that they don't like to wash their hands um and that they like to be close to one another as well so in a similar fashion these droplets may be transmitted from one child to another so i just wanted to know your thoughts on that in particular yeah look i mean anyone who's got kids knows that it's impossible to get them to keep their hands for themselves and to not slobber on things and not touch things after they've slobbed on them with their hands um so transmission theoretically is really tricky in children we haven't seen as much being transmitted from child to child as you would expect and i think that's probably because of a lot of the isolation and social distancing that we've um started quite early on here which is why i think australia has done really well um but yes it's really hard to to do the social distancing with children particularly when they don't understand when a child is old enough to say wash your hands before you eat that's one thing but if they don't understand that it's really tricky which is why i think the social distancing limiting public outings you know limiting visitors obviously following the local recommendations is really important because with children unless unless the parents force them to not go into those situations there's no way that you can stop them from touching things um so that's why that's where the social distancing really is important for children great advice and in in your view i'd love to know the answer to this question can viruses in general be treated and can covert be treated yeah so look viruses the vast majority of viruses cannot be treated so antibiotics work to cure bacterial infections um we do have some antivirals for some viruses but most of them can't so most treatment that we do for viruses is what we call supportive so if a child is dehydrated would give them fluids and if they need some oxygen support we'd keep oxygen but that's not really to treat the virus per se it's to treat the side effects of the complications of the virus covert is much the same so there's no antiviral to treat covet so if if a child gets covered and needs hospitalization it would be similar sort of fluids or oxygen or breathing support and there are some medications that they're trialing here and there for more severe disease but there's no treatment as such which again is what's making this really difficult so all in all parents really just to be able to prevent um their children or anyone in the family from getting covert is to adhere to social distancing um as we know with young children this is not easy um so parents should really be following isolation rules have children avoiding touching objects in public places washing hands um often and always before meals um and keeping commonly used areas around the home frequently cleaned would you say yeah yeah exactly i mean look with child care in schools and things it's it is a bit trickier and at some point you have to it's up to the parents really to decide if they'd rather keep the child home or send them to child care of course it's hard to keep children home all the time in terms of work and lifestyle and things like that so it's just really finding that balance and you know if you can children home that would be recommended but otherwise of course children do need to go to childcare parents need to be able to get to work so i completely understand that um and it's important just to question the child cares as well just to make sure that they're trying to follow um you know they can't really distance as much in child cares but just being really careful with hygiene and hand hygiene and it's okay to ask those questions yeah i'll maybe expand on that in a little bit in just a moment but i just wanted to ask initially are there any other things that we can be doing to help i guess our general health um i've spoken to a lot of people um in in the last few months now um and a lot of them have mentioned about a balanced diet um keeping on top of um you know background medical underlying medical problems ensuring that um we have you know vaccines for children up to date and being aware of immune boosting fads per se but is there anything else besides this in particular that we really can be doing and or just all of those things that we've just mentioned yeah look that that's a really good list and you know there are a lot of fads out there at the moment and a lot of people are jumping on the immune boosting bandwagon i think really the main thing is keeping up a balanced diet uh making sure that that um you know with a balanced diet generally you have enough of the vitamins and minerals that you need for a healthy functioning immune system or supplementing vitamins and minerals if the child doesn't have a balanced diet for whatever reason i think it's really important to keep on top of the background medical problems i worry that at this stage with a lot of tele health and you know reduced contact with medical professionals that children with background medical problems probably aren't being followed up as closely as they would have otherwise so i think really important for parents to keep up you know diabetes medications or even keeping up their immune suppression medications for various diseases keeping up that medication and keeping up the health professional contact to stay on top of those background medical problems because not just for covert 19 but for any any um infection that comes up you know any child with background problems tends to be a bit have a bit less reserve so i think it's really important to keep on top of that and adults as well um i might add i know we're chatting about kids but really important for adults to keep on top of all of their background medical problems around now as well yeah continue yep no i'm just going to say i'm just ensuring i guess when when children are out in public just ensure that they're trying to avoid touching their eyes their nose and their mouth um with giving that i know that we're speaking about covert but with picking up any other bugs or anything else um and teaching children how to cover their nose and mouth of the tissue when coughing and sneezing and or into the elbow and obviously using hand sanitizer is obviously a really big thing which which is yeah that huge thing i'm glad you brought that up yeah i forgot to mention that before but absolutely hand hygiene in general is so important not just for covert 19 but for any virus really yeah and i'm really glad that we're actually we're starting to think about this a bit more because we might see less rates of other viruses as well in the future yeah and i guess it's really commonplace that children can spread um bugs and pick up all kinds of you know bugs and viruses whilst at preschool and at school in general as you were just mentioning so in your view what parents um what should parents be asking i guess kindergarten preschool child care centers and maybe even primary and secondary schools about how um they are protecting their children what sort of questions should should they be asking yeah look i think it's important to be realistic i mean it's almost impossible to have a group of kids together and especially the younger they are to make sure they don't touch each other and touch up things um but i guess it's just checking that there's regular cleaning of surfaces if the children are old enough making sure they're washing their hands before meal times and and it'll be good to know whether there's just some general education about hand hygiene there's a lot of really fun videos about hand washing and things like that so to be good to know that primary schools and child cares are trying to to take on that education side of it as well because it's a really important educational opportunity for children as well as well so schools and and day care and kindergarten preschool should have some strict protocols around frequent cleaning they should um be able to go over over and above their standard regulations would you say yeah absolutely and i think it'd be fair enough for parents to check that the child care workers and the teachers and whatnot are also being protected and that they're also being responsible that if there's someone's unwell they won't come in that they'll do strict isolation of anyone who's been in contact and you want to make sure that there's clear communication between the parents and the child care and school if there are any concerns about anyone having covert maintain and i just wanted to address the long-term biological effects of crovid 19 stress on children's future um health and development there have been many external stresses coming out from this pandemic that have left a lasting imprint on children's health around the world not necessarily here in australia but their children's well-being that can link to stress and chronic health conditions in the future and this being different things even like for example like parental stress um school closures um lower household income loss of co-curricular activities so i just love to know from your perspective on what advice do you have that can help parents support their children and adolescents just to thrive during this time with all these added things that they're adding i guess to to you know to stress and to the health and wellbeing of children yeah i'm really glad you brought that up because i think it's not it's something that we don't talk about enough with regard to covert because there are of course all of the health implications but what about all the non-medical related implications of being in lockdown of all of this uncertainty around the world um am sure that there's going to be increasing rates of mental health um issues in teenagers and children after this and like you said the family stresses as well in flowing lowering common families family violence domestic violence and i'm sure these things are going to surface the longer this continues so i think it's really important for parents to just be aware of the non-cough cold fever-related side effects of covert that's currently going on and just really keep that dialogue open where you can especially with teenagers who might retreat a bit in this situation and but also that sort of younger age group that i'm quite old enough to understand why we need to be in lockdown and you know those questions about why can't i go to a playground or why can't i do this and why can't i do that just really trying to acknowledge that it's a difficult time for them and try to use this as an educational opportunity for them as well there are a lot of resources online for parents to help them deal with how to talk to children about covert 19 and and i can send through some links as well to that if that would be helpful but i think it's important for parents to be aware that while it is very stressful for them to think about work and family and isolation and social distancing and whatnot it is equally stressful for the children and i think it's important to acknowledge that and just really talk about it yes and we've published a few big help early also they continue what were you saying to seek help early i know that you know medical and psychological support is looking a bit different at the moment because of covert 19 but i think it's important to still make sure that you're accessing whether it's through telehealth or zoom psychological sessions or whatever it is just to make sure that you're still seeking support and for parents with themselves as well if they're struggling with the partners or uh you know just seeking family family supports as well where possible and and here at qdpd we've published um over 100 articles well and truly easily now um with regards to supporting families through crowded but in particular there's been quite a few that have addressed um the psychological aside um of covert and also how to speak to children about covert and equally as you said any other links that you've got would be just wonderful as well so we can put them in the show notes um but lastly i've left the i guess the really serious and heavy question to last um which you've alluded to some of this stuff happening overseas um but there have been a lot of medical papers in the last few weeks highlighting multiple areas of the body aside from the respiratory system that can suffer long-term damage as a result of contracting covid and whilst i guess the coronavirus disease that has caused covert 19 presents much mulder symptoms um most in the in most children under the age of 18 um experts have warned that influence infants sorry are more susceptible to covert 19 um i guess a sort of more susceptible to it due to their um less developed immune systems um and many parents have expressed concerns about the multi-system um implement i hate you say the word inflammatory syndrome in children as a side effect that coronavirus can appear um three to four weeks after a child has contracted the virus um so this particular syndrome which is also known as misc m-i-s-c can afford it can cause different parts of the body to become inflamed i just wanted to ask um this initially what's been your exposure and or understanding of of this more so in children overseas at the moment yeah look there the research is still being conducted and still being gathered so i think the tricky thing is we don't really know for sure and the virus is behaving so differently in so many different people and that it's really hard to get a clear pattern of it but um i think there is emerging evidence of multi-organ involvement and that's through the blood vessels mostly and we're seeing blood you know blood vessels are everywhere in the body so although it presents primarily as a respiratory illness i think there's mounting evidence that it can involve other body parts and other organs and we're not seeing as much of it here again as i've mentioned just because of that our numbers are so much lower so we will be guided by the experience overseas and i think it's trick my exposure has been very little because i've actually been on maternity leave since all of this um started i haven't actually seen that many children with um with multi-organ involvement at all um but i think it's important for parents to just be aware of it i wouldn't be you know i would i would just take on the same level degree of concern about their child um in terms of if they present with any sort of medical problem at all just go by the normal means speak to the gp go to emergency if you're concerned of course the health professionals will always have covert 19 in the back of their mind and we're very lucky that testing is we're very forthcoming with the testing here and and children will be tested for it if there are any concerns whatsoever so i don't think there's cause to panic um i think parents should be concerned enough to be vigilant to listen to the state advice and to seek support but i don't think that they need to panic about um no everything but being covered this is it's good for us maybe just to be aware of it um more so at the moment yeah absolutely absolutely i think i think at the moment with the way that things are going particularly in victoria almost anything that comes up medically that you're worried about with the child you need to keep covered in the back of my mind um so as long as we're just we're keeping that in the back of our mind but not not being too concerned about it to the point that we're we're not leaving the house or doing anything um sort of trying to find that balance of being concerned and being on the lookout without being too overly anxious about it that would be really nice if we can try and find that balance yes and then just just to i guess finish on what the mayo clinic um and all the different research is finding about that that misc um syndrome but the mayo clinic describes it as a serious condition which parts of the body um such as the heart the blood vessels the kidneys the digestive system the brain the skin and the iron eyes become inflamed so just all in all i guess we shouldn't underestimate the seriousness of the covet infection as you just said it's just more it should be at the back of our minds but pretty much it seems like that covid is like a nose to toes disease that can affect all different things from a loss of smell all the way through our bodies to frostbite in our toes um and the number of young people in icu um definitely overseas um is is on the rise so i guess for many people this represents um a long-term scarring and disability with breathing in general health so we want to avoid anyone at all obviously getting this but in particular obviously children as well this is something that they may live with for their for their entire lives some of their scarring um so the condition is rare as we know um um in children um but um some people have actually um some uh medical professionals and a lot of the reports in some cases have been mistaken with a kawasaki disease and toxic shock syndrome that's how it's presented in children have you read anything or heard anything like that before yeah similar similar that there is there is evidence of this occurring um kawasaki release is something that we've seen long before covert 19 um and it's a very similar sort of illness but and i guess it's now if we see a child that we would have ordinarily thought had kawasaki disease of course we'd think about covert um but again i think that's that's something that happens when when a child is unwell enough to be seen by a medical professional then it's our role really to think about that i think the parents role is to just be on the lookout if there's any symptoms particularly respiratory but anything else that they're worried about just always seek the medical support that they would and just be really really really alert about it and just really um vouch for your child as well and to make sure that you're seeking the support that you need and i guess the other thing to mention you mentioned briefly before is vaccinations just keeping up the routine vaccinations because we know that flu for example influenza can cause really serious illness in children and we see much more flu related icu admissions than covert 19. much much more so just keeping on top of those things as well is really important at this stage because you know we have we're yet to see a child with the bad flu and clover together so we don't want to know what that does to your body so yes um and make sure that being preventable conditions we're staying on top of yeah and i guess to further conclude we should not be underestimating the seriousness of covert infection um definitely in children and if your child is showing symptoms you might be tempted to think it's just a cough but most of the time it will be just a cough i guess but um it's just for us to um i guess just to have that early detection and i guess applying other measures as you've mentioned before such as physical distancing staying home fun well um hand hygiene all of these things are absolutely critical for um our response and keeping ourselves and our family safe now we've touched on oh sorry yeah go go i i'm just gonna add i mean the other thing about it being just a cough in a child is that a child might have covered 19 and get away with just a cough but if that child gives it to their elderly grandparent they could very much end up in icu or worse um so although a child could be reasonably well with clover19 it's really important to make sure that we're keeping them away from other um vulnerable populations particularly the elderly absolutely we've covered a lot of information in this chat today if you were to summarize your key messages for any parent watching or listening what would they be um so i'd say be concerned enough to follow advice but not concerned enough to panic that's probably my number one um then also any viral symptoms consider that it's covered until proven otherwise so make sure that the the child gets tested and to follow the state rules um very closely for social distancing in isolation um and not just you know advocate for your child you know your child the best and if you're concerned about anything whether it's covert 19 related or not you should always seek extra medical support wonderful and if parents have got any other questions um for you and or want to reach out after they watch and or listen to this chat whereabouts can they find you um you can find me on um facebook my facebook page dr malu um or on instagram that's dr underscore another i'm sure we'll give you all the links um but yeah i'm generally fairly responsive to um questions i do have a newborn at the moment so i'm trying to do it in between all of that but um yeah very happy to be contacted on social media wonderful thank you so much for your time today and really look forward to the opportunity of having a chat in the not too distant future stay safe and speak soon see you later great thank you bye bye | Rachael Monteleone | UCUOY7602LQqqfKRWiMmDObQ | 2021-05-09 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 6,600 |

qWM1MSIEZ88 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qWM1MSIEZ88 | katie Hobbs - My Opinion of Her - AZ Governor Candidate 2022 | Arizona governor Katie Hobbs Kerry Lake in his video I'm going to talk about one of them so in this video we're going to talk about Arizona election specifically the governor candidates this video we'll talk about Katie Lakes Katie Lakes put the two together Kitty Hobbs and the other one carry a lake will do in another video that was kind of funny uh Arizona governor so I want to talk about their performance when they each were interviewed with the Arizona Hispanic chamber and the and faced the nation so I'll watch both videos both interviews and they were to sum up Katie Hobbs performance it was awful I she is she's an adult she's but maybe 50 years old ish give or take and I would assume that she has done some other public speaking but she just all she said was ums us and she never answered the question whether I guess is a is what politicians do they really don't answer questions but it was amazing you know how how when you talk to people how some people have these these words that all they do is they repeat like if you notice with me I say so a lot so or some people might say uh um like basically and a handful of other words and but like I wanted to do it right now but so see I just did it but people use those words because if it allows them to form a frame of thought or formal frame of thought to frame a thought and to be able to then transpose it into words and those who are very good at public speaking has practiced it enough that they get good at it you would think as many years as she's been alive that she would have practiced it multiple times I'm not a professional dog right so I say it a lot but I'm expecting because I'm just a I'm just a low life right but she's supposed to be in a public science she wants to be a public servant she wants to she's she's going to be doing as Governor multiple interviews on multiple different media Networks and she's she's going to be talking to all kinds of people Business Leaders and other chamber of commerces and other politicians and maybe in foreign leaders especially Mexico Arizona Mexico you know being border to each other being Neighbors Ben can you just imagine how that conversation would go um uh you know really so she's but the way she sounded though the whole interview just sounded like she had lack of confidence she she wasn't really a Serta for she she wasn't a she wasn't sure exactly how to answer things so she was bsing it she she uh she was just awful she she was not organized no attention to detail at all in the way she answered anything just I thought it was embarrassing I watched that and and putting myself in the shoes of if I'm interviewing for her for a job I'm like hmm all right let's see the next candidate she didn't win me over and if I'm even running a political campaign I'm like oh man she needs some work you know you kind of cut out the others and arms come on and if you at least cut out the O's and ohms you at least would sound more like a professional now I will add this to those two interviews she did not go through a debate in her primary with another Democrat candidate she did not debate them and she refuses to debate Carrie Lake but why would she not debate why wouldn't she debate her own party now she claims I'm not going to debate Carrie Lake because it should create chaos she's an election denier even though the Democrat Party and a bunch of media denied the election in 2016. so technically their election deniers too so it makes everybody election deniers but she I don't know she just it makes it when I watch those interviews and then I learned that she didn't even debate in the primary not even her Democrat opponent it really makes me wonder that's why she didn't debate she didn't debate because she is not sure of herself she she doesn't have confidence she's making it up as she goes and she knows with all her O's and ums that's all she's going to get out of the debate she can't express herself and when she's put on the spot when she's pressured she can't answer she can't respond so she doesn't have pre-planned answers she's clueless she can't she can't think on the Fly and that kind of worries me that means she always has to be prepared now it's nice to always be prepared but there are times when you just can't be prepared you just gotta do something you just got to speak up you just kind of whatever and she can't do that now she's a very attractive woman though I give her I give her husband thumbs up on that but still what a horrible candidate it I kind of almost get the feeling that she really doesn't want to be Governor I get the feeling that she doesn't care that she's only doing it because the Democrat Party wants her to and she's like well well I'm not really good at all this stuff but okay if you want me to I will that's kind of what I get out of it because man she really should have debated it in the primary I think that hurts her most because she didn't debate in a primary and then when you listen to her talk yeah I'll look on YouTube if I find some links on YouTube I'll put them down here on those uh on her campaign but horrible so Kitty Hobbs governor for Arizona yes and somebody else because I don't think she wants the job um uh that's her middle name so I don't know awful thanks for watching Jeff Arizona hot topics stay tuned for more stupid fun come on by the way this is only my opinion see if I have fun [Music] | AZHotTopics |

L4_LtyDDZQQ | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L4_LtyDDZQQ | Democratizing Finance -- Video Panel CommonBound 2016 | um the whole idea of this session is there there is um the the the current economic system one of the characteristics of it is the very difficult time regular folk who try to develop start businesses um build for the community and the community's needs have accessing the finance um that's required to do that so we wanted to put in perspective the the whole of that I mean why that's important and then talk about some of our thinking on how we can build Democratic Financial structures that transform that in such a way as to allow communities to better meet their needs and Elevate the quality of life um the Earth that was found it was not created it was not made by anyone it wasn't the a stroke of Genius or really hard work or or or uh discipline or delayed gratification that gave us the Earth it was out there uh that Earth was at one time available to the people of the earth to make good use of to meet their needs in fact that's the only way that human needs uh can get met you grow food in the earth you cut down trees that grew on the earth you take rocks and build bricks out of out of the earth uh you find minerals that you want to use something with from the earth the earth is needed and it's a part of it but somebody took it one day a group of folk take it they claim they own it and once they own it then the access to it is limited to the conditions in which they said but in addition to the Earth itself having been taken away and out of the control and utilization of the people to meet needs and Elevate the quality of life human labor is capable of creating value um once you take a rock and you shape it in a certain kind of way it's actually more valuable than the Rock and the dust that it was before You' you've done it once you smelt gold and beat it out in the beautiful jewelry it's more valuable than it was when it was raw stuff so we create value all the time uh value added agriculture once we take it and put it in plastic bags somehow we think it's more valuable because we certainly pay more money for it um so this this value added by labor ends up producing Surplus over time because we're able to produce more than we need and since we can produce more than we need the extra is either stored up um or appropriated or taken by somebody we're talking about the form of that that becomes mon modified at some point and it becomes financed and right now the world is characterized by having a great big pile of money in it we're talking about trillions of dollars and there's some argument as to whether or not in real dollars is something on a neighborhood of 14 or 15 trillion or maybe it's in the8 trillions of dollars but it's a huge pile of money that exists in the world that represents the dead value of human labor that is done on an earth that people found so all of this ought to be the value of Labor from these communities ought to be at the disposal of those communities again to meet needs and Elevate the quality of life but it's not um our effort is to engage in a process to start talking about building a new Commons both both of nature itself and of the wealth created by labor that is right now held in in a handful of hands around the world and make this commonly available to the communities so that we don't have people who are capable of and willing to work to meet their needs and and and take care of their families and their communities who are unable to do so because they cannot access the tools that are required to do that in this modern world and that's the situation that we have that's what we're trying to break we're trying to do it in in a non-extractive way in developing some new tools of non-extractive Finance so we have on our panel today Brendan Martin from the working world who has done an incredible amount of work over the years in developing some ideas around non-extractive finance that have been developed through some of the work he's done in Argentina and in New York and in Chicago and around the country now m Michelle mascarin Swan who is working with movement generation and uh as part of a process uh that we're going to talk about toward building a financial coroporation uh Cooperative that is involved with a political movement around creating something that she's going to describe in detail reinvest in our power and we have Kate P who is with regenerative finance a group of young people who have participated in some of the projects that we're talking about that demonstrate the capacity um to have a new idea toward the nature of finance and how it's going to going to operate so with that that was actually 5 minutes I did it so yeah excuse me so Brendon we want Brendan to start out talking about the nature of regenerative finance and what it what it means how it's important and how it is possible non extractive yeah do I'll start with non-extractive that's hi everybody uh my name is Brendan Martin I work in an organization called The Working World which provides Capital uh to mostly worker owned businesses um sometimes other kinds of cooperatives and other kinds of community-owned um Enterprise and and productive activity so to start out um to follow on what Ed just laid out there the first one made like why are we talking about um finance and money this much why does this matter so much in in the context that we're in and the answer the first answer we have is that money has become the most powerful force in the world when you want to express power now you actually do it more by amassing a pile of money than by by taking political office that most decisions on the allocation of resources are adjudicated through the distribution and exchange of money rather than through political power pyramids used to be built by incredible organizations of political um people in in States and now they're built by people who have enough money uh so money is a starting point for us of that of all the things the economy that we're trying to make new or change or old again um the money is a Lynch pin there money is is this Lynch pin of of the Nexus of power in that economy we talk about money but we're not just talking about any money we're we're going to talk specifically about Finance why because we're not when we're saying that people who have a lot of money um have power it's not just because of the consumption choices they manage to make um that they make however much we like or don't like them uh but about the investment choices it's about their it people with piles of money can make choices to uh buy your property buy your neighborhoods build your factories uh build the bridges they can people with investment Capital end up making the decisions over what affects the lives of other people in the world once upon a time to take over a neighborhood move all the people out of it um would be colonialism now it's just a market exchange with people have enough money to do that um as long as they're in your same country as you it's not one country invading another it's just a it's just someone who's wealthier than someone else um so it's really investment uh that builds the things people need those tools that Ed pointed out that are necessary to meet your your needs uh it's investment that that uh creates those things and controls those things and investment so that's the first point that for us um we're focused on money and investment because that is where so much the locus of power in our current economy is the second point about investment is that it is extractive and its nature the way investment works so as Ed um pointed out maybe in an earlier talk uh that now that I think about it uh money that is that makes money off of money rather than makes money off of Labor you put money away and you get more money out of it that is the mechanism of investment it's about having a pile of capital putting it somewhere and getting more back and by its very nature we'll say is extractive it's about um because someone's put in labor and someone hasn't they just put in capital to get more the value was created through Labor that gets brought back to the investor as extraction um extraction is where there are not everyone is the same you're not in one Collective you have different parties and one party gets to take from the other party off of their labor off their off of their property um that's that's what extraction is it it it to talk about extraction necessitates talking about a power imbalance between people and the Earth between people and each other um and we as we describe it Finance is extraction perfected people are very aware of extraction they think about Mining and such but think about Mining and extend that to the whole economy and that's what Finance um does when in a financial exchange when I decide to invest in a factory in a village um that has a ton of impact in the village that hires people or fires people it changes the economic landscap Village it maybe pollutes the river or it builds things all the things it might do to all those human beings in the planet therein are absolutely abstract from the relationship it has with the investor as in the one who made all the decisions the only thing I see as an investor is the financial return to the investor not even the financial return that it may or may not have for people in that Village all I see is what money I'm able to extract out of it all my decisions are made as a as a decision of extraction how much do I extract out of it that's why I make that investment not for the good or bad or anything any impact it has on that Village um so that's why why we say Finance is extraction perfected as we also point out um it's so effective culturally for us that it managed to convince most Americans to get into this extractive game and put their money in say a 401k when people look at their 401K that means they have money that was theirs that's invested in companies all over the world they don't look at what were the activities of those companies who what what people do they impact did they pay those people well did they fire them did they create Villages they destroy them they all they look at is the bottom line of how much money did their 401 1K return at the end of the year um it's become so culturally normal for us that no one demands their but you got this isn't what I was asking for I want to know what my investment did to the world no one does that even if you might have invested in companies that are um that are kicking your mother out of her house the same company that's foreclosing on her home your 401 KP invest could be invested in and we're not even asking that question the extraction perfected of finances become so normal um that people engage in it every day without question so if that's extraction perfect if that's nont if that's extractive Finance what would non-extractive Finance be um and in extractive finance Capital controls people capital is the agent as I said the investor the capital gets to decide what happens in that Village and makes choices based on extractive principles how much money do I get back in a non-extractive exchange there isn't an extraction there's not another agent outside the Agents of the people in the village U it's people controlling money not money controlling people uh it's people hiring and then firing money not money hiring and firing people um so non-extractive Finance um it's it looks like in in there's a place in Spain called Monon that was is a Cooperative um it's a it's a village that has now tons and tons of cooperatives and they have a bank at the center of that Village and they started in the 50s they grown um tremendously since then was a poor village with a tiny bit of money their first few hundreds they putting that back Bank have now grown to billions of dollars but that bank has an operational principle not just a moral philosophy but an operational principle that Capital must be subordinate and instrumental to the needs of people and the needs of Labor and that that's an operating principle that they've used for all that time to grow from hundreds of dollars to billions what did that mean that meant that bank is not maximizing its profit that bank is controlled by the people of that Community um and only invest in where they want to invest in and it had to invest and worker owned businesses in that Village and that's what it did it couldn't just move its money to wherever made the most in the world and move it into oil and the North Sea or anything else it had to invest in its Village and the process of that has created one of the wealthiest most successful parts of Northern Spain and an incredible Community not a perfect one but an incredibly interesting one to look at um and envy of any kind of economic development in the world why because they controled their own capital in a non-extractive way um I've been engaged as the Working World um in trying to bring this kind of non-extractive Finance um to parts of the Americas it's not it's been this is traditional to have non-extractive Finance to be clear it's the modern world and capitalism that has changed that relationship so it's also just bringing it back and trying to bring it up to to a scale that can compete with current extractive Finance um I lived in great um I lived in Argentina for a number of years where we started a non-extractive investment fund that supported worker owned businesses factories that were taken over by the workers in Argentina um still needed capital and their only choice was to go to the extractive capital markets who didn't even want to lend to them so with my colleague there Maria Eva in the front row hi Mar um we and a number of other people in Argentina uh started a fund that would invest in businesses that only got paid back if those were those Cooperative businesses were successful normally you'd say well if you're if you're not going to be successful then you got to give us your car or your house or something um or if you're not going to do that then we have to control it this was a you know if we're going to invest in it then we own it if we're going to lend you money you got to put up collateral we did neither of those things and we put the money in and said we're on the hook unless it's successful and that changed entirely the relationship we would have with the cooperatives um often a business if they're in trouble the last person they want to have to call is their creditor because their creditor if they know they're in trouble might want to call that loan I me creditors often have to require them to call them in their contracts because they know they don't want to because our the cooperatives we worked with knew we we only could be paid back if they were successful they knew we were on the hook to make sure that they could be successful we're of in their first call they're like oh we're in trouble hey guys guess what we're in trouble and we'd have to come and help um because we were in the service of those cooperatives which is the opposite of a place a normal bank is so this was our experimentation uh in trying to build a non-extractive subordinate source of capital in Argentina over many years we worked with hundreds of factories made um over 800 of these investment loans these non-extractive subordinate investment loans um despite what the financial world would tell you that well I know it doesn't seem and I'm going to end right here it doesn't seem great to have to um it doesn't seem I know we have to be extractive that's the only way we can survive or else the banks would go away and then you wouldn't have bank money that helps so much um it in spite of that they would have said well if you guys try to do non-extractive Finance in a bankrupt country to work your own businesses you're going to go out of business 98% of those loans paid back back in full and we never had a down year so I'm going to pass it on you want to introduce Michelle or so with that I'll pass it on to Michelle who's going to talk more about that experience thank you great thanks so again I'm Michelle mascaria Swan with um the movement generation just a synecology project and today I'm also going to be talking about um reinvest well what I'm mainly going to be talking about is reinvest in our power um which is something that Brendan Ed like lots of folks that are here at the at the conference have been working to build um for the past two well in the US two two years um it um so essentially we um you know Brendan began um telling the story to many folks here in in the US about what folks were building in Argentina to to create a financial uh Financial Commons essentially um what would it look like if we were able to put our um put capital in a a pooled fund that workers could access when they needed the capital to um buy their by by the equipment that they needed that the factory owners had taken out of the country for example which would happen in Argentina or they needed just a little more um investment to upgrade their Factory to make it profitable um that um um that pulling that together would give them the kind of power that in the economy that that would support them um you know making their businesses actually regenerative um so this helped us to think about um how a financial Cooperative um could be formed here in the US um that would not just um not just be part of uh building these local loan funds but actually rooted in building the kind of political power that will help to wield that economic power as as you know an agent of change in the economy that actually has larger scale and force than anyone in anyone Factory or even Loan Fund could in and of itself um so that initiative we talk about as reinvest in our power um I'm going to just go through quickly kind of the structure of it and how it operates and we can talk more about the stories in details later um so again we can think about this as two parts on the right now the left side in the purple is the financial Cooperative which Brendan um and Ed mentioned it and on the right side is reinvestment campaign so as folks know you know this is a moment in which we're all very clear that the extractive like the pillage and plunder of the planet um and her people is um has to come to an end um and we're in the midst of a transition like it or not and so um there's lots of forces that are organizing to challenge power in ways that can um can help us transform the economy and students are and young people are one of those forces um challenging fossil fuels um increasingly challenging prisons and other forms of extraction um and so um Grassroots groups from the climate Justice Alliance um folks from the south who were engaged in building economic democracy from from Boston from other places came together with the Working World um and many other groups um to talk about how could we build reinvestment campaigns that would not just force universities to divest from fossil fuels that's great but um but those are really symbolic right how do we actually move that capital into not just clean tech or Green Tech which is where we were seeing that flow but actually move it into the kind of productive Enterprises that can support communities in regenerating um economy and so the pairing of these two sets of of activities we feel is a really critical lever for a just transition um so the financial Cooperative the idea of it essentially is that um there are these local loan funds can folks me if I keep this down a little bit or is that too low okay live stream hi people um uh so the financial Cooperative is comprised by and and governed by the local loan funds this is really a critical piece of information right right now decisions are made far far far from where the impacts are felt right we know this in the streets we know this in in our communities you know the factories that spew pollution outside of our um of many people's especially black and brown communities um doors are are not asking at all the workers from those factories or the communities that that um suffer the impacts and so what we have to do actually is shift governance at the root of it shift governance of the economy increasingly to um the people who are doing that work and who live with the consequences of those impacts and so these local loan funds are about that um so as you can see we're sort of coming together there is a coming together of communities across the US um to join together in this financial Cooperative there are three kind of core oh here's some pictures actually so um that's an image from Argentina right um on the top left from the Working World um then there's the southern reparations Loan Fund which Ed and Mar and many other people that are in here are a part of um these are some of the loan funds or emerging loan funds that are part of the financial Cooperative there's cooperation Richmond that's pictures of Rich City rides and and urban tilth um and so the financial Cooperative really has three key functions it's about shared learning shared services and shared Capital um and maybe just to back up a second we think of this as as in parallel to um like a seed library right to folks folks heard of seed libraries um and what are some of the core functions or what are some of the ways that a seed library operates shout it out I know it doesn't feel very particip participatory in here but SE like what is a seed Library fored you get free seeds and you plant them that's cool to to pass on the genes of especially rare Heirloom Seeds yeah how do they operate how do they function do you just get them and then you go plant them and that's it and then okay and then you get new seeds and you give those back right so there's a critical function that you have to return more than what you took or or something equivalent at least to what you took but you don't just return the seeds you actually return the knowledge about what how you grew the seeds what the conditions were what you got from those seeds right and then and that actually returns more that that's more than just the seeds itself um the the other thing that's critical about it is that you're helping to govern it so somebody said here you know you want rare or Heirloom Seeds there's a reason for that so you're making decisions about what kinds of seeds or how you're you know how you're um managing the seeds by running a seed library in that way and the and the financial Commons or the financial cooperative is very much that way it's the commons of capital and so it's critical that shared learning is a part of it did I skip one no um that I can't read that but you can see um essentially shared learning is the peers across the financial Cooperative these local loan funds are learning from one another as they're developing and emerging so they're they're sharing best practices the Working World is the the oldest and largest of the loan funds in the Financial cooperative and so they're providing a lot of the initial like peer guidance and and wisdom and the loan other loan funds are benefiting from that from that knowledge and increasingly um the other loan funds will you know serve as peers to new emerging loan funds and so the idea is that that's a regenerative process right so shared learning is key um shared services so the backend services that local loan funds need the SEC compliance the IRS filing not everybody has to recreate the wheel um the working world has you know has to do that for their own Loan Fund they're already developing backend Services then and and we're raising money to develop like increased infrastructure to support new emerging loan funds to um you know to provide those backend services and then finally shared Capital critical um and an important thing to note about this is that um you know I think about this process process as um like this the sponge is a good metaphor for this so um if we dump a bunch of capital in a community that has been totally starved from access to Capital um and the the tools to make that Capital productive it probably won't be soaked up in the best in in like the best way possible but if we can find ways to slow it spread it sink it deeply um and that means kind of wetting the sponge first you know you don't take a bone dry sponge and try to mop up a spill a huge spill you actually wet the sponge first so that you can then take up much more and so that's the pro that's what we're doing right now and so these loan funds initially are making some small loans they're learning from it they're they're organizing around it in communities to identify right projects um but that means they're they're not individually able to take up a ton of capital yet um but collectively we can aggregate the the needs and scale it up uhoh thanks Ed um and then last I'll just talk about the reinvestment campaigns we're talking about then linking student forces with these local loan funds and Grassroots groups to create the kinds of reinvestment Demands that students can lead with that are not just about we're not just drawing downi uh money from the extractive industries but we're actually demanding then that the universities invest them in a non-extractive way as Brendan was referring to um and then I'll just end these are some of the partners um and um we are excited to talk more with you about it I I wanted to introduce Kate um one of the question always comes up is like you're going to do a what how you where are you going to get people that are going to make money available for this crazy new process and Brennan has had his own sources over the years um and one of the emerging sources is some work we're doing with the uh really interesting group of young people that have been very very helpful and that is regenerative Finance Kate po works with regener is part of regenerative finance and has already been involved in one of the loans that was structured through the work of the Working World in this non-extractive way for the development of the Renaissance Community grocery store in Greensboro North Carolina I'm going to talk a little bit more about that in a minute but I wanted to say that in talking about Kate's description of uh one of the ways that that money can come into a process like this one of the ways thanks I appreciate that framing a lot um yeah I'm definitely up here as a uh rich person that is uh somehow been roped into this project and I'm going to talk about like how that happened and why I think it's important um so so I'm a leader with regenerative Finance which is a collective of eight young people with wealth who have been organizing for the past 3 years it emerged out of resource generation which is another group that organizes young people with wealth who are interested in Social Justice and um it came out of a workshop that was co- uh organized with Goal um who's also a part of movement generation and the frame of the workshop was how can we take direct action at the scale of Finance um and how can we take risks and so we came out of that Workshop really excited but also a little unsure we were thinking about doing like an anti- capitalist hedge fund which was uh kind of shot down as potentially too complicated um and then we were talking about pooling Capital which was shot down as illegal um and so we were beginning to organize together figure out how he could take Collective action and a bunch of folks attended the Jackson Rising convening which was two summers ago in jackon in Mississippi and um there made a commitment to investing in the black South and learning from movement partners that we're developing a strong framework around reparations and why it's important for accumulated wealth um which comes from extraction to be put back and uh reinvested in communities that it's been taken from so there was this interest in investing in the black South and um understanding the history of wealth that's been accumulated as tied to slavery as tied to racism in this country as based on Stolen land from indigenous people um who were murdered and exiled by white settlers and um so there's this developed framework of reparations and a moral responsibility for taking accumulated wealth that we had access to and uh reinvesting it in communities and um an emphasis on wealth redistribution rather than wealth accumulation and and so these frames are really useful but kind of the questions came up so we want to redistribute wealth and we want to attempt to do some small piece of reparations and then we're looking at the impact investing space which has such different Norms around kind of what it looks like to reinvest wealth it was um a lot of people talking about how important it was to invest in Green Technology or these other false Solutions um that weren't addressing systemic issues and so the questions that were coming up for us were should people with accumulated wealth continue to accumulate wealth on the backs of the communities that they claim to be helping under the guise of impact investing which we thought no um and then should Rich investors um decide which projects and businesses in communities should have access to Capital we also thought the answer to that was no um and so as we were kind of beginning to figure out how to disrupt these norms and impact investing spaces um Marney reached out to us from fund for Democratic communities works with Ed and um asked us if we would be interested in investing in this emerging project Renaissance Community Co-op and um I think many of you have probably heard about that in different spaces it's a consumer owned grocery store um it's been in a food desert in Northeast Greensboro it's been 18 years since they had a grocery store um the store that was there was profitable but not profitable enough so it was shut down and the community tried to recruit a store to come in but the capitalist structures were not interested in investing in the community um and Jay Jones and Mo and lots of people involved with RCC are here at this conference if you want to connect and learn more about that project and so Marne explained that the city of greensbor was going to put in a certain amount of money and there was maybe some hedging happening or that money wasn't going to come through and so if they couldn't figure out how to fill this Gap app it's possible that the capital all this layered Capital that been set up over you know uh years and years of work was potentially going to crumble and would we be interested in raising $100,000 uh 0% interest loan over a 14 to 20 year term and we said yeah sure um and we weren't really sure if it was going to work um and we about two weeks after we talked about it we had a webinar oh and we reached out to Brendan we said is it possible for us to pull capital and move it under these terms to this project and he said sure and so two weeks after that we had a webinar um and I know everyone loves the webinar but we managed to get maybe 20 people on a webinar to learn about the opportunity um to invest in RCC and um on that 75 minute webinar after you know Marne and uh Jay and Ed shared about RCC and after Brendan explained that we were doing a thing together uh that was this investment we asked how much people would be ready to invest under those terms at 0% over a kind of 15-year term and we raised $100,000 on that webinar um that night that was about two years ago and that was a real shock to me you know I wasn't really sure if wealthy people would be willing to come into this project but I think that the story is strong enough and the moral responsibility is clear enough um that we're going to be able to move a lot of capital in that way and so the first 100K um that we raised was able to leverage about 250,000 out of the city Greensboro and then over the next year after that we raised another um 153,000 so we ended up going in 253,000 from about 38 wealthy investors at 0% non-collateralized non-extractive terms like brandan explained earlier um and that was from 38 investors total and so I think that as regenerative Finance we're learning that there are a lot of block there are many blocks to having wealthy investors redistribute wealth and commit to making reparations and recognizing the history of where their wealth um is accumulated from but there's also a lot of possibility and a lot of uh excitement about investing in non-extractive finance and investing in community controlled loan funds um and I think that um as a person with a lot of power and privilege and wealth it um I don't know it's deeply important to feel to show up as my full self which includes bringing to Bear my resources and to figure out ways of leveraging resources and access I have to move money into these projects and um it's been deeply meaningful work and I'm really excited to talk to other people with wealth that are interested in moving resources into this project um or people that are wealthy and confused about whether they want to move resources into the project okay I wanted to take about another five minutes to talk about another fund that is developing uh which is the southern reparations Loan Fund um the southern reparations Loan Fund has grew out of the work um that was started several years ago development of Southern Grassroots economies project but now it is incorporated as a was a simple incorporation in the state of North Carolina so that it can sign contracts to and a memorandum of understanding with the Working World to be part a component group of the financial cooperative and the ways that we were talking about the reason why it uses the reparation framework is because there are damages that have taken place that for which repair is needed and we like to think about the whole question of Finance as being part of that structure of repair it's not all of it but it's it's an important part of it and I want to tell just a quick story from South Africa that I heard from a guy named bugani FAA Who's involved in Truth and Reconciliation project about old man named Smith and a and a guy named Tabo and um Smith was a was a white settler there in South Africa and when he heard about the Truth and Reconciliation process he uh he realized that he could be forgiven for what he had done under this new black government that was coming in if he would just come and tell the truth so he comes to the meeting and says you know I I remember you Tabo uh I remember you had a family and you had a farm and you had a cow and I came and I I took your cow and I Know It devastated your family and for a long time you all were hardly able to eat and stuff and I realized now that this was completely wrong and I want you to please forgive me it was wrong I should not have done it and I'm truly sorry and Tabo said you I I am able to to forgive you that's all right and so they they hugged each other and they cried together and they probably even prayed together and then Smith is walking out the room and Tabo goes whoa wait a minute he said well what do you want he said what about the cow and Smith Goes you're ruining our reconciliation this has nothing to do with the cow okay the problem is it does and so when we talk about reparations we're talking about the cow the many cows that have been taken in the course that destroyed damaged families and left the devastated landscape of the South and that's where I live I've lived all my life and so the southern reparations Loan Fund is looking to create a way so we can talk about the cow the cows and put make communities whole again um so we're organized along these lines of uh non-extractive Finance our early Capital will come from part of is coming out of philanthropy with the fund for democr atic Community threw in $150,000 to start off with that the Working World say ah I got you I'll match you $150,000 uh and we have been working along with regenerative finance and have now growing access to Capital we uh fund for Democratic Community is paying for a loan officer who's traveling around and working on projects in Arkansas Mississippi and Florida right now with potential Cooperative things along the line of non-extractive finance and in particular upholding the principles of radical inclusivity which is to say we want to make sure that loans are available to the kind of people Banks wouldn't dream of lending any money to uh for the purpose of um Al the principles of non-extractive Finance so we're not taking as collateral any pre-existing business assets we're not threatening anyone's home ownership we're not even threatening their their prior existing business assets uh we're only talking about if you help buy somebody something you buy them their second truck and they decide to close a business you might take that truck back if they change their mind about it but you're not going to take the truck they already owned non extractive in those ways and also this idea of maximizing Community benefits the southern reparation Loan Fund is only interested in lending to Cooperative businesses not just worker Co-op businesses but Cooperative businesses because we also recognize that a community like this community in Northeast greensbor can decide that there's a community activity that it wants and a community need that is to be met and this need is broader just in their consumer needs it is a need both for good jobs as well as the need for access to food in the community and it can own this financial entity it can hire the management that's going to operate it in such a way that this community need can be met and Elevate the quality of life and quite frankly help build hope and and and excitement in the community which is what that process has meant to it uh we're glad that we have all the people on the stage have been involved in one way or the other together and helping to build and deliver on that dream that is coming true in Greensboro with the opening of the RCC Co-op that will happen uh sometimes uh in early fall and we are looking to let folks know I got to shut up but now we're going to open up the questions and answers make it stop make it stop we're going to open up the questions and answers and um and if you ask me some questions about it I can talk more about what I was just talking about I'm just a moderator on this panel I have no control over it because we agreed on the rules uh so are the are there questions oh I have a question how many people here are think they might be interested in starting a Loan Fund at some point wow that's good how many people here think they're interested or have some projects that they're working on that they would like to seek Finance from some kind of non-extractive Loan Fund like what we have okay another good group how many people here uh are just curious okay same guy raised his hand three times all of that that's the box is marked all of the above and he just checked it okay we just wanted to get a little sense of of who was in the room and um but now it is open to your questions to us and we can talk some more we have a little we have some time left yes sir uh I think we need to do a mic thing where somebody if you can pass a mic down and we'll run it around to the people in the audience who are asking questions just a minor ground rule on the question you know that speech you were hoping you were going to get a chance to give a common bound what we want to do is is have you ask a question that hopefully we can talk about and make sure that we make some space for everybody in the room to get a chance to ask some questions that was my mying hi for investments in the financial Cooperative our investors going to be targeting a specific Loan Fund within it and or is there an option to just kind of fund any fund that needs extra Capital because I could see some winners and some losers depending on regions and different factors um the the simple the the best is to put it in the G ener fund and the whole idea is to take the the investors is not the agent making those decisions and the the community does it together so while it it can happen um because right now the the financial coopera just in the market trying to find the best Capital can and sometimes that'll be the way it is and um it's a very locally based there's local money available from a city that has to invest in its own City could happen and we might decide it's worth taking but as much as possible Cooperative has benefited by um not just focusing yourself but by everyone getting to to then uh share it cooperatively is that make sense okay great yes sir actually yeah let's try to let's try to take two or three questions and then is that more interesting Michelle finds it more interesting for us to take well that's cool yes because we can answer two or three questions at one time because they fold into the complex ideas we're sharing got it hi uh this is super easy uh there is already One loan that has gone out sort of under through your the financial Cooperative model and maybe I thought it may be great to kind of hear how did it work uh for the folks who might be interested in joining okay that's let's let got another question so I apologize I missed the first part you may have commented on this but in terms of the ACT ual loan funds you mentioned how you didn't want to extract from the actual Co-op businesses or or other people who might submit to The Loan Fund what role does credit history play in that process for a co-op that would want to get funded or a entity that would want to get funded very good question and we let's take one more okay I just have a kind of a general question about um uh just governance and decision making within the loan funds and kind of you know how you handle issues of governance uh inclusivity representation and so on uh and and how that plays out in the real world when making decisions about which projects to fund and which not okay that's that cool enough questions at once okay he wanted a governance he was asking a question about how the governance works out in terms of of the loan funds no no you start no I just okay okay so I um I'll talk about governance so I think one key thing to note is that we are working to turn on its head the relationship between investors and the work the people who should be actually driving decision- making about the economy and on its head right we're reversing that order and so you know this relates to your question as well um it that as much as we can we are working to make those decisions through the financial Cooperative where the financial Cooperative has a governance structure that includes a committee that is um charged with um you know like like making the decisions about when a loan is ready to be funded um and that that relates to a whole set of conversations that is happening across those loan funds about what the political priorities are for political and economic priorities are for the the um the financial Cooperative as a whole that's helping to drive us towards you know where we're trying to get to um and so just as as an example I mean we just came out of a network Gathering yesterday um which was really great we had Representatives like good robust delegations from eight of the peers um some of those are already loan funds operating loan funds most of them are just emerging as as as developing loan funds and incubators um and we practiced what it looks like to govern um pools of money in this case we're talking about gift Capital because we need operating Capital to get these loan funds off off the ground and up and running um and we talked about things like what does it look like to like what are our priorities is it about getting some of the ones going that are almost there like if they just had an infusion of of money they could hire their loan officer and they could get their their Loan Fund running because we need some examples of things that are that are up and running or is it those places that have been extremely excluded from Capital like the Deep South like the like Detroit or you know other places in in the RBT or the Midwest um or indigenous you know communities are those places that we need to be prioritizing and we had a really robust discussion across our loan funds and other you know other groups within reinvest in our power about what that looks like and so I think just to just to reiterate like that the process of turning on its head um the role in this case it's of philanthropy because we're actually trying to increasingly get money out of the hands of uh you know foundations and put it into our movements to be able to drive money where it needs to flow based on movement level decisions um this was an example of that of that work and then increasingly we're trying to do that with capital as well but but through very informed um um governance where workers who've gone through these processes can can lead the the process of approving loan funds and um and and and loan officers that have been gone through these processes are approving loans from other um other sites that are are are supporting them and being loan ready um to make sure that you know we're all in this together I want to say a little bit more about uh credit the role of your your credit rating I guess that's part of what you're asking um you know there there's this whole process for traditional Landing talk about the five seeds of credit and when you get them all together it's basically it's a question of you know are you going to be able to pay this loan back and even if you were able to you the kind of person who's going to do what you're able to and in fact pay it back the credit question in particular asks the question of have you had trouble paying back loans in the past and that may or may not be an interesting question um when in fact you're on the same side of the table that the finance is on the same side of the table as the borrower because you're dependent on the success of the business the real considerations are do you have a sound business thing that you're working on doing that we can work on together and us and we'll help you figure out how to do this successfully so at at the point when regenerative Finance with working with the Working World to figure out how to help Finance the RCC I don't remember there being a credit check done in fact I know for a fact that there was not and in the course of our work right now that we have a loone officer that's working with some people again in Mississippi and Arkansas and some other places she's not asking to see People's Credit histories that she doesn't care uh we don't care uh what we want to know is what is your business plan and how can we help you make that robust enough so that this infusion of additional Capital into your business is actually going to generate the kind of return coming back so that it helps you grow so it doesn't waste your time and hours on dumping something into something that's that's not viable and is not a favor to anybody so but it's not at all based on the question of whether or not in the past you've had a hard time paying back loans um and just to try to wrap that one it's a that was a great answer the credit history one's really interesting it's funny in the credit world and they say that well if it's a higher risk then it has to pay back more which might make sense if you're saying if you been a company that's been around a long time then stable money we're given if we're going to start up we want a bigger piece the upside but when it's a person's credit rating and you say well Ed you have a bad credit so you're going to have to pay us back more money at the end but if he can pay us back more money then he's not actually a credit risk I you never understand that but if in the end he ended up paying me more interest than the guy did before he not only could he pay the loan back he could pay a higher interest rate turned out I was wrong and I it doesn't make any sense really in doing it uh that for us a credit rating will come from the experience of working like as I mentioned we make a partnership and it's relationship based where the first call you get we're not as the Loan Fund we're not going to be ever recover the money unless it's a successful project so we be end up we're on the same side of the table we have to make it work out and we create a working relationship and create trust um if the if the you know the people want to borrow money never show up to the meetings or won't bring stuff don't want to share it it becomes really hard it's a work-based relationship um it's through actual demonstration of people and it's nothing to do with anything that might happened in their past when they dealt with other financial institutions um and and then it's the ability to work with we'll work on whatever those projections are what the plans are because we're in it to make sure it works if if it doesn't pay back we lost some of that commonly owned money that the financial Cooperative so we have to try to make sure it works works out and it's the working relationship we form um that that is and and the plan we try to call come up come Co come up with that uh is how it works talk a little bit about right so the the question was asked about the first loan there's a couple of loans that have been taken over by peers uh there was a loan in La that we had done the Working World had done that got taken over by local La Pier uh there the the Renaissance Community cooperatives loans that we've done that now is being managed by local locally in the Carolinas but there was a loan that started uh that bred in Baltimore unfortunately the people who did it they were here they're gone um that was started after they became uh they joined the peer Network and they said um they there the the people in The Loan Fund in Baltimore had been working with this newly Cooperative IED um black youth owned Ice Cream Factory um and they'd been working with them working on different uh technical skills of Cooperative governance and such and they said hey there's a they have a ice cream truck that if it gets fixed up it can make a lot of money this summer but needs $15,000 so we helped them their the peer Network I was their assigned peer worked with them to put together that plan how that would work they worked with the the people on the ground into harka and and formulated the plan and then as a an apprentice peer they presented it to their credit committee and our credit committee we all talked together about the loan questions were asked and then it was approved $155,000 was sent down the ice cream truck rolled out um already last month it already turned a profit it's already bringing money back in um it's already going to repay and as that money is repaid so as I mentioned they were an apprentice member Brad is new now that money is being repaid that money is in their local Loan Fund and Brad locally decisions what happens with it in fact based on the rules of the Cooperative they're they are now eligible for matching money to come out of the the commons fund and go to Under Control in Baltimore so every th000 it comes back will be $2,000 of local Baltimore money um so that's the it was a it was an awesome story and if you're ever in Baltimore and you want the best ice cream you've ever had bye to Harker Brothers the key lime pie ice cream is incred no it really is oh it was it was so good and if you're in Chicago and want to buy worker own Windows Armando robl in the front he uh they their Cooperative borrowed up to a million dollars to to start a work or own Windows Cooperative best place to buy Windows in the country I mean it we wouldn't do any advertising from the stage here it's not ads it's it's not oh it's not ads when it's real okay are there some other additional questions yes he's bringing you a microphone thank Youk oh thank you I have a question about um getting more uh money into the regenerative Finance world and it seems like Working Families contribute a lot to Pension funds through their unions I'm thinking about people like myself I'm a teacher nurses folks like that so where our money goes is often suspect in my mind and I'm wondering if there's a way to Parlay those trucks of money to do the work that you all do yeah Shamir hey y'all um my question was um inspired by a lot of um worker owners I've been talking to and the idea of radical inclusivity which is how do we get worker owners or workers to be the ones who know how to do this um Financial investing or is that already happening like what are the examples and how do we transition to like that thing where they're the ones getting to do that maybe it's already happening okay who was next thank you yeah pass it back to him um my question is about what is the um limits and requirements of um the cooperatives that you're um is there a limit as to what type of cooperative and what are the um requirements I guess um that you have I guess the most important requirements um and if there was a time this is a three-part question um if there was a time to review during this weekend for those that are interested in giving a proposal or looking at having you all look at one okay um my question is maybe a little longer term uh I'm wondering if what what communities may be doing uh for metrics uh that um that reflect re uh regeneration so it seems like real Capital isn't in money real capital is in resilient communities whether they're forests or or neighborhoods and are there metrics that allow allow us to experience the benefits of the investment uh in the regrowth and regeneration of those those types of capital okay um let's take these and then uh you'll be next next round no go ahead let's yeah so this this is likely to be all the questions that we'll wrap ask Kate this at one time uh just in terms of indigenous communities and reparations and having funds that are really about reparations for indigenous communities are there models um or is this model going to be something you think will be transferable or is that are you not the right people to ask about that or just uh that's we're the right people to ask any question we might not have the answer but we're the right people to ask so you what uh I want to to let me start the indigenous thing first um the last will be first um I I was at American Indian mothers Cooperative in Red Springs North Carolina last weekend and they have a really exciting project that we're going to be talking to about um trying to figure out some ways to help it become a reality um that's they absolutely one of the communities that would that that we care about in the South the southern reparations Loan Fund is you know taking a pretty wide geographic area but we again have the position of having a lone person who's working pretty much full-time moving across helping with inquiries helping people think through business plans and trying to get some some loans you know ready to go out the door and so they're absolutely among the folks that that um that we are interested in working with um just wanted to make sure that was known uh oh yeah I I want to say something about the capital you know the thing about you know real capital is you know the capital that we're thinking about is the capital that is wrapped up in Machinery finance and other stuff and it's not because it's the only thing of value but that's the trick we fall into when we want to name everything that's valuable Capital uh there all kind of really incredibly important valuable things about communities uh and and they are Community Values and they're they're they're really powerful and wonderful and that's what we ought to be helping to develop but to to to want all those to be Capital as opposed to what we're talking about which is the Machinery the apparatus and the the money required to have access to that so that people can be fully productive that makes it clear who we're talking about right now we live in a world that's dominated by capital and one of the concerns that I have and I think it's something we ought to work on is redefin finding what capital means so there's actually a whole lot of good stuff so then when I'm talking about the world is dominated by capital and we live in under the rule of capital and that being wrong that Capital shouldn't rule but people should then all of a sudden Capital has got to be all this other wonderful stuff too and it's a confusing discussion and and I'm just just offering that as one of the ways to think about it so part of our emphasis on talking about money is that's the capital the capitalists don't like to talk about Grassroots folk having access to because they'll Grant you social capital and spiritual capital and cultural capital and you get all this other stuff that they'll tell you it's Capital too and then you left without this money that you need to buy the factory that you need to do to build the chairs and the furniture that you want to have in the homes of your children when they get married and so I'm just saying that that that they're incredibly more valuable things than that but that stuff is instrumental toward getting to these other real real values and again sometimes our use of the words kind of clouds what it is that we're talking about and uh yeah capital is not the most valuable thing in the world but it is instrumental and it should be toward us getting and creating the things we need for our communities go down the line and I'll go last question just want to try can I borrow that um okay so I there's a couple technical questions I to make sure to cover um about I mean I think you I think you probably do a good on the Pension funds um the worker owners getting being involved in the decision- making or or the training um it's actually one of the best ways for the the financial Cooperative to spread so one of there's a number of different peers that Michelle uh mentioned one of them is in Baltimore as I mentioned that first loan was done there U and one of the reasons they've been able to move forward very quickly is because they have a 10year history of building a worker Cooperative there called red Emma and workers from that Cooperative are are the ones who then are are the some of the core the people who formed the local Loan Fund and are actually the ones who went out and worked on building the loan for Tarka brothers so actually um Ro who's a woman who works in red Emma was the direct loan agent working with people from Tara and she had a coach coaching from Kate katib who's also a worker owner in red EMS and has been for many many years so they're um they needed a lot less resources in the end to build themselves up to be able to figure out how to do a loan because had already gone through all this before uh so you know long long run bringing people from worker cooperatives into loan funds and vice versa is going to be the best way we're going to grow um rather than just teaching people in the abstract so um there has been a there has been a lot of that we need a lot more of that of people going through that uh cycling back and forth um limitation on the cooperatives that apply we haven't had there's been all sorts of different types of cooperatives that apply it's really about it's not about admin being a Cooperative it's about having Democratic control of prod of production or of the needs of survival so of land of of productive um productive Capital if I'm going to I'm now he problematized I won't say that of productive stuff um so it's it's having it it has to have democracy and we've worked with groups that didn't even have a legal incorporation let alone um if they decided was it was a co-op because they really had uh demonstrated a democratic control internally we worked with trusts we worked with worker um we worked with consumer cooperatives product producer cooperatives so it's really about that Democratic functioning um no one did approach US during this uh that I know of I don't approach me about um about applying for a loan during this weekend but it's only Saturday uh regener B for Dr capital I think that's good and there are and I think Michelle is going to get to talk about this indigenous um there there are some indigenous groups that are involved and um this next year's group of peer uh in the peer Network gather there's going to be one coming from Alaska and maybe one from um also from Arizona but uh so there is some of now getting actually is that that's not the answer to has reparations happened that might mean like say giving all the land back and letting them letting rent be but you know it's not it's not an answer to the reparations question but there is a real space I mean it has resonated it's surprising me how often this has resonated with people across the world but as we mentioned this was not made up now in reaction to to Capital to finance capitalism these are very natural ways of people in many parts of the world have traditional ways of sharing um Finance so it's it shouldn't be a surprise I guess that it resonates in many places you go about Pension funds and I guess or anything I don't know oh um so right now the financial Cooperative can take investment from accredited investors or unaccredited investors in certain States and so hopefully in the future as more Capital comes in be able to leverage that Capital to have more access to public markets um and and hopefully Pension funds will shift all their Capital into worker controlled uh Community controlled loan funds um and yeah and I think something I was thinking about a lot when you're talking about this inversion of the investor uh Community relationship is that it's not enough to just shift Capital into communities you also have to shift power and that involves changing a lot of structures and norms and um and that is what like the work of non-extractive Finance is about um so just briefly yeah on the indigenous communities so um there's two other um groups and kind of funds that are we're in conversation with one is the indigenous environmental Network um which is a long longtime um leader Network of um indigenous communities and and some tribal governments that or well not not usually tribal governments indigenous communities um that are that are um working to transform their communities and um they're interested in creating a Loan Fund and we're in conversation with them about you know that in the context of joining the financial cooperative and the peer Network um so if any of you have ideas about how we can resource such a thing we are actively looking for support for that um they have they have lots of projects that are actually um they believe are like ready they have business plans they're ready to be funded but they haven't had the capacity to um to seek this kind of non-extractive Finance in that way so um and then the Tonka fund is another so Native American foods is a a really great model of um an indigenous Le business um and they want to be buying buffalo meat they they do like Buffalo jerky and the Tonka bar um they have to buy a lot of their buffalo meat from White land own or or Buffalo producers um because there isn't enough native grown Buffalo anymore and a lot of tribal governments are leasing their land to land owners that can rent and that tends to be land owners with a lot of access to Capital and so um they want to create a fund that can support um indigenous communities in restoring buffalo on that Prairie Land um in the dtas and um are really excited about an indigenous or I'm sorry a non-extractive um model um and it's it's a really good example because there's a built-in Market um given that Tonka brand has already achieved like market share they're just trying to um build the capacity of indigenous folks to then benefit from that Buffalo um and then I just the last thing I want to say on the Pension funds I yes totally that's that's um no question that um it's in the interest of the working class to transform the way the economy works and where they're like the wealth that they're generating is being invested um and so we are totally committed and movement generation has an initiative called climate workers that um in the Bay Area we're organizing um people in the labor movement who are wanting to support the labor movement and specifically trade unions in um advancing a just transition and you know we've seen nurses we've seen teachers really come out um in in support of advancing a climate Justice agenda in you know after decades where unions um were not supposed to talk about industries that that uh they supposedly didn't get impacted by so you couldn't talk about coal mining if you're a teacher or you're a nurse and we all know that um it's all connected and so increasingly um it's been really exciting to see service workers um we work closely with SEIU and um fast food workers and you know a lot of those workers see the many like the the layers of how the economy is working to just extract wealth and and oppress and mind from their communities both back home and here and I think are some of the leaders of these kinds of not only workplace fights but also um Pension funds so yeah we're going to have to wind it up now a couple of things I just want to say um we we're living in a time that is you know Frau with a whole lot of danger uh they devastated communities where some of the people in the communities are clearly not valued uh as members of those communities because there are armed folk who are agents agents of and enforcers of maintaining the property relations as they currently exist exist and in fact agents of capital that currently are afraid of their Authority being challenged in any kind of way 2:30 in the morning I was talking to my son talk about being tear Gass out in Phoenix Arizona with 5,000 people in a in a demonstration uh except the wind blew the stuff through the tear gas the other way and they kept going um but I I just wanted to say that this discussion around democratizing fin is ultimately a dis discussion around rebuilding communities and transforming the kind of role that is played where Capital dominates and directs the police so that people again direct whatever force and Authority there is in their communities in the direction of people and people's needs rather than in the direction of enhancing capital and it is for that reason that we have to democratize finance in order to create and rebuild the devastated communities on the basis and around the principles of of meeting human needs and elevating the quality of life within Community for all and that's what all of this is ultimately about thank you so very much and thanks to Brendon and Michelle and Kate for

happened before our very very first ever tour two years ago we started off and we were in Dayton Ohio and you know was big city and stuff and then we went to Maine and we played this tiny tiny tiny place in Main and the GPS was bringing us up this dirt road down a further dirt road which made the first dirt Road looked like the Metropolis uh and then finally when we got there I mean we were full sure we were lost and the phone signal was gone and everything was gone but you we thought we were going to same thing was going to happen today that GPS was playing trick two it was actually an hour before we got to the it was still there was still an hour left in the GPS and then it turned up this road and I'm not joking it said dead end when your GPS is telling you that an hour before you get there [Music] try a couple of real these ones are on our second album we call this one spaceships and frying plants don't don't ever ask why [Music] [Applause] he [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause]

you have to bear with us with the sound we only got electricity in Ireland about 3 or 4 years do you know how I can tell that you're all uh you're all well used to coming to Trad series is that when people come and it's their first time it's their first time playing Trad or sorry their first time seeing a Trad concert they get really caught up with the energy you know and it starts off and they're all yeah clapping mad right from the start but you know some of these TR sets can take a long time oh night it's like yeah yeah 2 minutes later it's like yeah 2 minutes after that it's just like yeah whatever two people are expert clearly you just hold it all to the end so it's the same with dancing sometimes you know some people just start dancing and they just don't know what to stuff because I mean what Irish what Irish dancing the idea is that you do a step at the right and the same step with the left and then another step with the right and the same step with the left and generally maybe one more step with the right and the same with the left and that's it we were playing in we were playing at the local pub years ago and this guy comes up and he was from somewhere in Europe thank you he was from uh somewhere in Europe and uh he says uh do you mind if I dance I said no problem sure you know you're very welcome and uh this was clearly the fittest man I've ever seen in my entire life because someone whatever like he learned obviously lot of Irish dancing but someone didn't tell him about the whole dance two steps and Stu so he was waiting for the music to stop uh and we were kind of waiting for him to stop so H just like I mean an a typical dance it last maybe a minute so after about 6 minutes we were kind of looking and going maybe he doesn't know how to that so we kind of said will we just keep going we keep going for the B the sweat was just pouring out I mean if we kept going it was just going to be two a pair of dancing shoes in a small puddle of water so we stopped and he you know he sat down and I mean I was there thinking this guy's going to sleep soundly for a week 10 minutes later he had the stupidity and the audacity to come back and get it sa do you mind if I D again you're very very welcome to do that was a long St our fingers were hurting after that you can imagine the condition he was in at the end that try a couple of jigs off our brand new album when I say brand new I mean we only actually saw it for the first time about 5 days ago [Music] my brother started telling accordian jokes the last two years and every time after a show some one of you guys come up and tell him a new accordion joke and he had a million in one accordion jokes for a finish and then he bought a [Music] bjo what you call a beautiful woman on the arm of a banjo player a tattoo they say the definition of a gentleman is someone who can play the book and accordion but chooses not to you're playing banjo shut up playing a real instrument you not he gentle and my younger brother it wasn't easy for him growing up in the shadow of a Titan you know I grew up in a shadow all right right you ready one two [Music] [Applause] w [Applause] [Music] the [Music] [Applause] the [Music] what [Applause] oh n [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] w going to try a song off our first album This is a this is an American oldtime song that uh that nobody over at home had ever heard of because we don't have American alltime Music at home so we came across this one and put our own little spill in it and we started playing it at home and people said wow that's that's great did you write that he said no no no it's it's it's American all time it's American all time everywhere place people were kind of you know did you write that did you write that you get asked so many times before you start to think maybe we did write so got to the stage of people were kind of saying did you write that and we were like Define right so we recorded it and then we came over here and our very very very first show uh we started singing it and I was this close to saying so here's a here's a little song we wrote and uh open my eyes halfway through the song and fall half the crow we singing along with us turned out to be as common as twinkle twinkle over here so here's a little song we wrote this one is called Shady Grove youd like to sing along oan R the whole thing I one is in summer time loing fall I have the girl I love don't want at all she I hading M she my she [Applause] [Music] she I so pretty girl to down [Music] jingle ma she [Applause] [Music]

experimental when I say experimental we were talking about we were stuck in the forest an hour ago so even if it's totally crap he might give us a round of applause anyway he was encouraged there was there was actually a lovely couple we met and we were stopped in the forest they are there okay I was panicking I was thinking cuz they said they were coming tonight and we had been talking about bears just before we so I was like jeez I hope they're here we don't have bears in our well there's nothing in Ireland that's ever going to catch you I mean if you were sleeping outside in the grass the worst thing you're going to catch is a cold so there's no spires there's no snakes there's no woes there's no bears there's no there's nothing really just bad weather there's nothing there yeah accordian there is unfortunately just a lot of miserable Irish people are always giving out about the weather we were in Michigan about a year ago and it was H was doing March we we were brought out ice fishing and like I mean we were surely there's no such thing as ice fishing I mean it's wet and cold in Ireland but it's never that cold you know so we just have the worst of every possible world of weather so they brought us out fishing anyway and uh as we were walking out you know there was something we just had this bad feeling and I said is there any uh is there any wolves around here no no no no no not that I know of this is the guy that was bringing us out so we were sitting inside in our little tent I suppose is that what you call it for and uh we were fishing for like 2 hours and we were full sure that they were just ah let's play a joke on the Irishman come to Ireland and you can go leprechaun hunting was ice fishing now I don't like the CLA that he did catch something he basically caught a goldfish I mean I'd say the little thing that was on the hook just ate a stone and looked a bit bigger when he pulled it back up so then we were kind of there for 2 hours me kind of started talk about how we don't have wolves and stuff in Ireland as well I said to the guy you know I said would they would the Wolves ever come down here and he goes no no no well you know they felt you know hungry as he said it they clear the oh good night and thanks we're basically back inside within 2 minutes so we're going to finish the first half of this one if you want to come say hello during the break or we CDs outside as well so please grab one sorry I keep saying grab one uh buy one I've made that mistake before sry again guys thank you for bearing with us with the sound and

[Applause] [Music] w [Applause] [Music] go woooo [Applause] [Music] is anybody here about roots in County kry uh my friend go goway close but uh nice carry is kind of like the butt of every Irish sh you know we why why do carry dogs have flat noses from from chasing parked cars this time thing you get the idea so Carri are famous for pulas and sles and uh what do you call a carry man under a wheelbarrow a [Applause] [Music] mechanic this is all on video as well so we're can we edit that actually heard one joke uh before about where the KY man wins um oh no this is one of these jokes that like at the start of it actually heard a priest tell this joke and when you first hear at your Pentagon where is he going with this one but but it's a great joke so uh so there was an Irish man from Kerry and he was over on a building side in England and Patty Englishman actually that's the only time that the the kry guy ranks above someone as when there's a Patty Englishman so so petty Irishman and Petty Englishman are over on a building site in England and Petty English man is on top of a scaffold and the Irish man is below at the bottom of the scaffold and he's got all these carry techniques and they've all got their lingo you know and they're all doing this that other so the English looks he says he looks at the Irish he goes that the Irish man looks him he goes STI quick me so where is he going so yeah where is he going so imagine this no in church so go the Irish go English go the Irishman goes the Englishman climbs down the scaffold he goes the whole way down the ladder and he goes this stupid Irishman I'm looking for a one foot ruler Irishman goes I know it's in your back pocket you e [Music] so anyway he did that the other night and I had no idea where he

_e4pAFGFDT0 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_e4pAFGFDT0 | Prayers for Strength During Hard Times|Healing for the Wounded Heart | [Music] hello everyone this is Cynthia on embracing his word well I am so happy about the goodness and the faithfulness of the Lord in my life and in my family today I will be doing a prayer and also words of encouragement to you we have been doing I have been doing a video series and reference to healing for the wounded heart so it is just amazing just how much God loves you and me he knows the very hairs on our hands he knows what we are going through in this life he is waiting on you to come running to him as a father wants to take care of his children he has his arms open wide to just embrace you and to love on you God sees you those of you that's going through a court situation a legal battle God sees you in the midst of your court situation he is God he is el Roy the God who sees so he sees the court battle that you're going through and you think that the judge will not rule in your favor ask the Lord for favor and the manifested power of God in the courtroom he will be a lawyer for you in the court room so if you are in the middle of a court case God cares he has not abandoned you he wants you to have faith in Him for direction for every situation related to the legal battle and as you face a legal battle you must choose to walk in God's righteousness his integrity his love and his word and through the the challenge stand on pray and confess the truth of God's Word as reflected and I just want to say that God loves you and he can supernaturally intervene even when it seems like there's remote chance that God will intervene if you only have faith because the word of the Lord says to him that believeth all things are possible so God wants you to just walk by trust in him in the midst of this battle so father god I just thank you Lord God for the individuals that going through legal court battles ain't pray father that you will go before him before them and send forth your spirit father Lord to begin to release supernatural favor for these individuals father what we counsel out the plans of the enemy to bring hindrance to bring trouble in their lives or in their family lord I pray O God Lord that things will go in their favor Lord began to touch their hearts Lord areas Lord that they need to surrender unto you pon I pray father that those things are surrendered unto you the repentance and through prayer and prayer and Jesus's name I pray amen now there's someone that will be having surgery soon but you are fearful that you will not make it so God wants you to be encouraged he wants to trust you that he's watching over you and that he will see you through it so the scripture is for those of you that's facing surgery God does not want you to be fearful in fact the scripture says for God has not given you a spirit of fear when he's given you power love and a sound mind so take authority over the spirit of fear by binding that spirit and also standing on the promises of God and Isaiah 41:10 says so do not fear for I am with you do not be dismayed for I am your God I will strengthen you and help you I will uphold you with my righteous right hand and so father I pray for that individual that's going to face in surgery I pray that you will strengthen them and their walk with you father strengthen their faith Lord to walk with food transfer of reliance and confidence and what you've done and continuing to do father may they Lord just relax and and have notice and no anxiety finally we just come against the spirit that wants to bring anxiety and fear we bind that up in the powerful name of Jesus and finally just lose your peace your love your joy over these individuals in the powerful name of Jesus I pray amen there's someone out there that has brought has a broken relationship or just broke up with someone and they're starting their lives of fresh or they you have been through a divorce and the Lord wants you to be encouraged and to continue to have your faith and trust in the Lord and as I stated before on my previous videos the most important relationship you want to focus on is having that close and intimate relationship with the Lord he is the one that can fulfill everything that you need in your life the scripture in Isaiah 43 verse 2 and 4 says when you pass through the waters I will be with you and through the rivers they shall not overflow you when you walk through the fire you shall not be burned since you were precious in my sight you have been honored and I have loved you these are powerful verses these are verses that I often use in the times of difficult times trials and just going through a hard time I watch on to the Word of God and this is one of my favorite scriptures that when you pass through the waters God says he will be with you and even through the rivers when it seems like everything is just overwhelming and that you don't know how you don't come you will come out of this or how you your heart will be healed and restored just put your trust in the Lord proverbs 3 verses 5 through 6 says trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not to your own understanding and all your ways acknowledge him and he make your paths straight so right here the word of the Lord says that we are to trust in him with all our heart don't try to figure it out and don't try to lean on your own understanding God is saying just trust me allow him to heal your heart allow him to bring restoration and the powerful name of Jesus so finally pray for those that are experiencing broken relationships Lord going through the voice father going through some form of rejection I pray for the healing process to begin even now father I just release that peace let your peace mount go over their mind spirit and body finally I pray that even when they lay down to sleep in the night Lord that your peace Lord Lord just surrounds them I counsel out the plans of the enemy to bring fear or torment i bind and cast that away from them in the powerful name of Jesus and finally just thank you Lord for your peace in your love over these individuals in the precious name of Jesus I pray amen well this section of my prayer is for people that have experienced loss of a loved one God sees your pain he is Elroy and God saying I see your pain and he will bring healing and he will bring restoration to you God is saying it's time for you to just come forth to him release that pain unto him and I know that grief grieving the loss of a loved one is very difficult and that grieving can be the most difficult time for people trying to balance the feelings of pain and loss while going forward with your everyday life but what I want you to do is to be honest with your emotions if your feelings that you need to voice your emotions go before God in prayer don't grieve alone and don't lose hope so be encouraged God is for you he is not against you the scripture in Revelation chapter 21 verse 4 says he will wipe every tear from their eyes there will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain for the old order of things have passed away so father I just thank you Lord for those that's going through grief experience and deep grief those that have even allowed a spirit agree to come into their lives because they have not healed from their wounds father I pray Lord God that you just began to release your healing power over their mind spirit and body but I pray that you take away the sting of the pain from the loss father Laura God that they will begin to focus on the good memories of their loved one father I pray O God that you just began to touch and heal those memories in the powerful name of Jesus and what I thank you Lord for your word says you came to heal the brokenhearted you came to bind up their wounds and finally thank you Lord that you're doing that Jes even now in the hearts of those that are grieving and Jesus precious name I pray amen so I want you to be encouraged and be blessed you | Cynthia Wilson - Embracing His Word | UCJIdIp9Bb7ZnMgRKlWg4tQQ | 2019-04-21 | Creative Commons

from a very small family it's basically all my life as being me my mom my dad and my sister with the occasional grandparents in a picture one grandmother in particular so it feels very weird every time I had to work camp Europe so I feel like I'm heading to the most the biggest family reunion on earth it's almost like it's overwhelming and terrifying and like nice at the same time it's pretty awesome and my favorite thing is how I how I can seem to go for the first three hours without being hot beverage 15 seconds it's so so awesome and then my other favorite thing is how my name gets pronounced incorrectly and super enthusiastically and lovingly every 15 seconds as well I love it it's really really great it's great to be having my coffee in Paris with you Simon said that that was the last slide of my presentation in last year's work ampere last year we were 60 people from 68 countries support camp Europe this year I think we're even more if I'm not mistaken they're like people from 82 different countries this year that's such a growth so I'm going to repeat myself and say hello world and welcome to Paris and more or less everyone that here speaks two languages with peak English some extent and we speak WordPress and I started learning English quite late and the WordPress even later but this particular story is about languages and I learned that from my grandmother that I mentioned before who because I was born in communist Bulgaria and like to tell me biblical stories as bedtime stories and she didn't really tell me they were from the Bible because that wasn't really you know that was quite frowned upon back at that time so the story is about how people want spoke one language everyone spoke the same language and how languages were created by vengeful gods that wanted to separate people because they were beginning to get too close to heaven building this amazing tower that would get them closer to the heavens so that vengeful God kind of separated them and scattered them across the world and made them speak different languages so they can't understand each other and the moral of the story granules a while also like asking me how are your English in German and Russian lessons going with that the power to listen hear and understand each other makes us do things that otherwise seem impossible in languages I really our ticket to a different show to the world of somebody else something different than what we were used to and people spend years centuries as I chose to believe in that story even though it was biblical the people spent centuries learning languages to be able to regain that power and in the meantime though religion traditions politics all of this devolved into deep roots within all of us and on top of that we got the internet and communication started being a little bit more complex just because we got that new level on top of already having to communicate in languages was poor and for most of us communicating without seeing each other luckily other languages came to be like programming languages and that's how we got WordPress today WordPress is created by thousands of people everywhere and since its inception it was quite an international project it has a global community these days and people translate it in more than 160 languages so in theory WordPress has kind of gone beyond borders right there is a passion of global community a slice of which we have today and why I'm here today is to talk to you a little bit about how can we understand each other better and a bit of the lessons that I've learned in these past several years since I got involved with the WordPress community cuz I had no idea before I had zero idea before the first time I came to France I was petrified to open my mouth because the only thing I knew that the French won't speak English to you and they're gonna frown frown at you and you try sticking with them they're not even if they understand you they're not gonna respond I don't even remember who told me this but for two days all I did was this and then somebody from somebody from my country a clever sarcastic designer called Jiangsu witkoff started mapping the world stereotypes and and I kind of got why I was so petrified to come to France you know and some of these maps you know you should look them up they're quite amazing some of these maps are quite hilarious there's there's quite a bit of like a lot of offensive stuff about that as well some are hilarious you know some are a bit exaggerated but some hit right where it hurts especially if you're watching the map of your own stereotypes and all the insecurities and the limitations that came from the fact that I grew up and grew up in a small we turn European country that had no self-respect whatsoever there is a Chinese curse that says may you live in interesting times there is a little controversy if it's really a Chinese curse but like I looked it up and there's no evidence it's like a Chinese curse the literal translation is quite different but yeah and we are quite cursed our world is super complicated especially today the vision forces forces that you know it was like a huge question mark on democracy these days and their conflicts everywhere and all that and all that's kind of pushes people back into their own shells you know and we've witnessed tools being built around us for centuries some physical or mental walls used to divide us position is different determine our different social statuses as far back as history goes there were walls being built but also torn down compared to the callus of the reality our WordPress world seems quiet amazing you know what press managed to gather a global community behind it and people somehow work together also often not knowing where everyone is coming from I'm not saying there are no problem there are no problems because there are but our virtual seems relatively safe I got involved in WordPress I wanted I always wanted to put that on a slide by the way like really really since the first word camp Europe I got involved with WordPress in 2011 but really got involved in WordPress in 2013 and Leiden I had barely been to a local word camp before before I landed lightest Landers in Leiden and I have no idea how to begin to describe to you how insignificant I felt when I first caught a glimpse of the global WordPress community hours somebody that nobody knew I was not a developer it wasn't my place there I didn't speak the language very well and I don't I didn't understand any of the programmatic socks I had only used the platform to build a couple of small sides and the WordPress community and the polyglot community somehow happens to me as contributed a naturally that was trouble with the Wi-Fi so I was like browsing around tables and looking forward to sit and reaching out the polyglot stable I found myself staring a day and the polyglot team this is a picture of the volleyball team from last year in Vienna we're quite a smaller table with Leiden but still there were people from Japan the Netherlands Brazil Georgia mania all over Europe countries that I couldn't back then even put on the map and I sat on the same table with them and I don't think I ever left that table after the person reading the Polliwog key the true polyglot master five languages somebody that someone once described as the most interesting person in the world was there that table and I asked can I sit at your table sure he said just looking for his glasses and I had never had a good understanding of people I think they told me a couple of very valuable lessons at the beginning that seemed very vague but somehow worked out I was never a patient I didn't have a good understanding of different cultures I only spoke English I never even had a grasp of any other language one thing I had was commitment to learn though and I had really good teachers I picked up the role of kind of leading the community part of the polyglot scheme I think by chance and from this guy from day and I never thought that I would be able to fill his shoes I don't think I ever will but what I was super terrified about how to talk to people I don't know anyone and I didn't know if I wasn't going to unconsciously offend anyone by saying something and and then she said this people just need someone to really listen to them I says really it can't be that simple said no it's not you have to find a reasonable one when there are conflicts there's always one don't jump into conversations without your doing your research without knowing who you're talking to there's a lot of bad history just AskMe but most of all be kind respectful and graceful I am as graceful as an elephant in the glass door and I'm never going to be grace as graceful as my mentor but I'm trying to face my demons the best way I can and I have a lot of challenges there are a lot of challenges and communicating across cultures and that begins with me not being in a native English speaker like a lot of the polyglot community for non English speakers it's sometimes hard to understand for sorry for native English speakers it's sometimes hard to understand how much it takes out of you to try and express yourself in a language different than the one you grew up with kind of adds a layer that puts are restrained on your vocabulary and ability to express yourself and sometimes it's really frustrating people face that and want to waste they either decide that they're going to be the people that are going to ask old questions like when you don't understand something you ask and you kind of risk looking as if you have no idea what's going on or they decide to not ask and risk not understanding and that's where our background cultural difference is national stereotypes and personal issues come into play because it takes something really strong to make you overcome the fear of getting there my um one of my favorite people researchers dr. Brennan Brown says that courage starts showing up and letting ourselves be seen and in the WordPress community we also have a phrase for this it's decisions are made by those who show up however if you're a non-native English speaker of the WordPress community you also know that ending of this phrase that is unspoken decisions are made by those show up and there to speak up speaking up takes a lot out of you especially the first time especially the first couple of times most of you because every mostly because every community has rules and when you're first get involved in one you don't know it their boundaries borders walls unspoken rules things that you don't know how to how to handle and I want to talk a little bit about boundaries which is like what's okay and what's not not okay and every community has some but also like every culture has them and every person has some and when there are boundaries that's actually okay because when we don't set boundaries we let people do whatever they want and ends up like kind of resentful and hateful and we don't appreciate their choices we get mad at them and for the first kind of 20 years of my life because I'm very passionate and some people get me mad for the first one years of my life I just assumed people were expecting to piss me off you know and then I spent quite a bit of time back channeling talking to people privately people that were kind of misbehaving public channels and there was one thing I kind of realized what if people are doing the best they can so I decided to try a new strategy and your basic principle when communicating online and trying to resolve issues across cultures and language barriers and the principle was the following I never know if somebody is doing the best they can or not but when I assume they are my life gets better the generosity to assume the best about people as a selfish act because the life that changes first is yours urine but it also lets you be a lot more compassionate when you communicate to people and they feel that and they bring that back so bone boundaries are important boundaries are they're not fake walls they're not separation they're not division and respect it's paying here's what's okay and what's not okay for me and we can't ever know what the boundaries of people are all of them because there's no way to know all the cultures there's no way study everything that happens to people in particular locations and say you know we're born you can never know what it is to be someone else but not knowing is never going to be a problem in our community as long as you don't assume or force your opinion but ask there's another for another thing brunette Brian taught me just imperfections are not inadequacy they're reminders that we're all in this together and the Japanese have a beautiful untranslatable phrase for this which is wabi-sabi it's finding beauty and imperfections the acceptance of the cycle of growth and okay I find that curiosity is the key when you approach people with curiosity when if you don't understand anything about their culture asking questions is always good they'll never turn you away they'll be happy to share they'll love to share and you always make mistakes you know you will bring white flowers to a Chinese person not knowing that you know white flowers are only brought to funerals in China that symbolizes that you know you're gonna you're going to show the victory side to a British person and like get slapped in the face because you know this means something else Great Britain you're gonna say okay to a Spanish person and get a really really deep brown that's kind of a way to face tell someone they're an and things and and that's okay as long as you're prepared to kind of own this and then ask how should I do it then put the empathy and compassion are three words I did not know before I got involved with the WordPress community so this is like something I kind of had to study with sympathy being when you feel for someone empathy when you feel with them and compassion the urge to step in when somebody is struggling and do something about it and compassion not a virtue the choice it's something we choose to practice I decided that and all of a sudden everything got a lot easier when communicating to anyone from any different culture kindness is a universal language and people feel it's even across chat rooms and caring caring is the coolest thing I've ever seen anyone gee somebody taught me that flask here sitting over there and speaking after me so make sure you sit around and wait for his story as well so we're let's go back to where we are today Paris have a small slice of the WordPress world today we're camp Europe has grown so much in the past four years that it has started feeling overwhelming for people I hear more and more the phrase it's not the same when I talk to the people that came for two the first one a second one and that carry mostly means it's so big that you don't really have enough time for meaningful connections with the new people that you meet but that doesn't mean we can't try so as WordPress goes beyond borders we can try and go beyond WordPress in the next two days you don't only have to tell WordPress try and form meaningful connections by sharing something personal I'm not saying that's working is not okay all right of course it is but try to share something real about yourself something unique like tell someone a personal story or share something that you need to yours and or key them untranslatable word from your language like the word that I cannot pronounce in German that means grieve bacon what does words gaffur it's that thing that you do when you're grief-stricken and like just over eat yourself out of grief there is a unique work word for this there you go or my favorites most favorites untranslatable words in the world Ubuntu which means I find my words in you and you find your with me and because we have time I think we still have time right I'm going to finish with by starting to share something personal I bought my first poetry book in maybe 15 years in Boston this March I kind of saw that I had grown up to be too cynical for poetry so I stopped reading poetry at some point but I got into a barson Barnes and Noble to warm up and it was just a book that was sitting next next to the coffee table that is fed us and caught me off guard it by 20 something-year-old Tariq a and if you allow me I'll read my favorite poem from that bhakti when they bombed Hiroshima the explosion formed a mini supernova so that every living animal human or plant that received direct contact with the race from that Sun was instantly turned to ash what was left of the city soon followed the long lasting damage from nuclear radiation caused an entire city and its population to turn into powder when I was born my mom says I looked around the hospital room with what a stare that said this I've done this before and still for someone who has apparently done this before I still haven't figured anything out yet my knees still bucco every time I get on stage my self-confidence can be measured out in teaspoons mixed into my poetry and it still tastes funny in the mouth so no matter that I have inhibit ations to fill all my pockets I keep trying hoping that one day I'll create something that I'll be proud to let sit in a museum exhibit as the only proof I existed my parents made me Sarah with the biblical name in the original story God's old Tara she could do something impossible and she laughed because the first Sarah she didn't know what to do with impossible and me well neither do i but I see it impossible every day impossible is trying to connect in this world trying to hold on to other as well things are blowing up around you knowing that while you are speaking they aren't just waiting for their turn to talk they hear you they feel exactly what you feel at that same time that you feel it it's what I strive for every time I open my mouth that impossible connection there is a piece of wall in here Shimada was burned black by the fire but on the first step a person block the Rays from hitting the stone the only thing left is a permanent shadow of positive light when I meet you in that moment I am no longer a part of your future I quickly become a part of your past but in that instance I get to share a part of your presence and you get to share a part of mine and that is the greatest gift of all so if you tell me I can do the impossible I will probably laugh at you I don't know if I can change the world yes because I don't know that much about it and I don't know that much about reincarnation neither but sometimes if you make me laugh hard enough I forget where I am and where I came from this isn't my first time here this isn't my last time here and these are the last words that I'll share just in case I'm trying my hardest do it right this time around thank you Pecha thank you it always inspires me when I see people getting up and giving a presentation like that in a second language I come here very aware of my own advantage in having English as a first language and yet to see speaker after speaker getting up and overcoming that first fear of the language and then that second fear of opening up always always gladdens my heart we'd like to take any questions if anyone was a statue something I'd like to start with on petit you kind of hinted there that there was a political dimension to the kind of community that WordPress is and has become we don't talk about that very much now we're done boy I don't know people feel uncomfortable bringing it up or just talk about it not publicly with each other to each other not entirely sure I kind of have this this feeling like there's the kind of the American community and the others and that's there's a feeling of separation that is just like little they're little pieces that happen that's kind of separate those worlds I kind of hope that that goes away soon I don't think that there should be anything like this yeah I mean we're first was after all founded on both sides of the world right so yeah I kind of really feel that it's kind of a global community non-native english-speaking global community finds with voices kind of steps up means a little bit bolder maybe those things will disappear because there's no lack of people wanting to hear each other here I hear each other out I don't think I think you're I'm having you need to look around an event like this to see people wanting to engage and if you want to call that politics maybe you can I don't I don't see anything wrong in talking talking politics it's just one no is just one way to know learn more about each other I mean last year we all hugged you guys after you know what happened it was like basically the same day of where camp Yerba the results were coming on right that's the wanna hug a bridge sweet yeah yeah they're not over it yet so if you see a British person there's like about 200 of them even Omaha they have one more you work camp you're at left in them okay do we have a question up at the top no well yeah we have a question down below sorry hello hi for your talk just a little question you say you can't say something to a French Frenchie ah I knew that was gonna come back and bite me and yeah and you can say to other and well what is it I'm curious no I wasn't I was just terrified to speak English you know actually people told me that if I speak English to French people that will be offended you know and they will not respond and you know there is it's like a common stereotype about about French people Oregon yes thank you but you don't really like you don't really like speaking a language other than other than yours which is I mean I find that stereotypes can be overcome definitely but this was like I was I don't know I was 18 I didn't even speak English that well and somebody told me like yeah they will like frown at you if you speak anything other than French at them I have so many French friends right now I don't speak French so they all speak English to me so I have no trouble speaking English to French people I cannot as I keep winning you know I've been coming to France now for about 20 years and I genuinely feel it's got better yeah but maybe it's just you guys oh but you know that as well right I know my mom so any more questions I don't see any hands raised and what we'll do Petri you will be around all through the event a year everyone's patches friend please come up and torture and if you've been watching the slides she wants to talk back to you so can I ask for one more uh applause please for Petrovich Oscar thank you [Applause] you

Gbg-qRy-6Mo | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gbg-qRy-6Mo | Enregistrer de la musique avec l'interface FOCUSRITE CLARETT + (vidéo de La Boite Noire) | [Music] my name is andrea rocha i am a songwriter producer cellist and string ranger focusrite has asked me to produce a track along with three other musicians and we're gonna all get together and make this little idea that i have come to life so sipo sent me a bunch of ideas so i downloaded a few of them and i ended up really liking this focal loop that he sent me i'll show you the raw form [Music] so yeah it just feels really cool to start with that on its own so i sped it up a bit and added some hip-hop kind of drums the first interface i had was the scarlet now i've had the opportunity to play with the claret plus and it's just like a massive step up i am sipo i make music write it perform it live it read it with the claret plus i feel like having a chance to sit down with it you know play with all the different kind of tweaks and actually being able to use the focusrite control as well it's made it a bit more interactive with my system because i found with a lot of interfaces there's no kind of rendezvous point between the two the focus right control kind of gives like a bridge so it's easier to set up it's something i could sit down in any room with and show most people how to use [Music] i'm jacob bogdan i'm a guitarist and producer i work with bieberdoobie and i'm assigned to dirty here so right now we're in sleeper sounds which is definitely one of my favorite studios we're doing b's next album here and it sounded great i've been sent this track by andrea with cpos vocals on it i'm going to have a little play around with it today try some synths out try some guitars and see what happens [Music] i've been working with the cleric plus it's a really cool interface from focusrite things i like the most about it other you can send things to reamp really easily you've got midi in and out so you can program midi on your door send it to other sims the mic pres on this interface really sound great have four so you can be recording for microphones at once this one will definitely be coming on the road with me so jacobs sent me a bunch of guitar parts kind of clean parts distorted parts for me to play with and then he sent me like a whole folder of synths i'm excited to kind of get my hands into it we're going to be going into the pool which is one of my favorite studios in london and we're going to be recording live drums and there's going to be an amazing bass player there and then sipo and i will have a top line ready that he's gonna record and perform on the day so we're gonna be working with darren hilas who i've worked with in the past and he's an amazing engineer so he'll be there to help us out on the day getting everything set up and recorded ideally a solid song and a solid kind of product is made up of anywhere from three to five very simply established things anyway [Music] i'm still trying to figure out how to breathe i love that many options for that that's perfect how did you come up with a little vocal loop sometimes you just have ideas that just never go anywhere so i think like all these ideas that i've just not touched ever since they've like been made like i approached this as everyone kind of having their own moment which is why i think it's really cool starting with just vocals and then adding guitar and then drums and bass come in quiet and then it builds into this big thing yeah i like that lot um joel i play the drums in the band called wolf alice to be quite honest with you i'm quite enjoying going in with not really thinking about it too much it's been quite quite fun for me you know following andrea's lead with it and there's some amazing ideas already floating about this morning let me just pledge to play just amazing musicians and talented people it's been really a creative process to be in the room with a band bouncing ideas off each other and it's just felt really organic and raw the difference is super clear i think music comes alive more when everyone's in the room jamming to it [Applause] i've always found that with focusrite products that it's really warm but clear i think you're dealing with really great sound yeah i think that's really audible today you know that's that's a nice kit but still like it can get muddied up and it sounds crystal clear so i'm really happy with that cool all right i'm ready when you are just giving me like a bar in is that cool i prefer the challenge sometimes it's like you'd rather be able to go into a room and like be consumed by the energy of what you're doing rather than overthinking something that you thought about ages ago and you might never run to my house solid stuff solid did the job i like it i was loving what came out of the claret plus man like the way the crew seemed to kind of interact with the with the room and and then even being able to like hear the kind of warmth drop my vocal i guess i guess that kind of came from it so we use the air function on the drums the kind of top end of the drum shaker and on the vocals to bring out that crisp high-end sound today i've been so impressed with the air function with cymbals sometimes if you're pushing the top end it just becomes a mush and i think it's so impressive to hear it kind of cutting on the top end and it's really percussive and clear and not too garish that's really important for me especially with the kind of drums i like to play well i think as great as it is having musicians in the room together it's not always the easiest thing so it was really useful for everyone to have their own claret plus interface and they were able to send me parts like the guitarist wasn't able to be here today so he was able to send me really high quality guitar stems for me to then and put into my project and play around [Music] i kind of came in today thinking like we've got these three amazing people let's just let them do what they do best they can all improv they can all play their instruments super well so i knew it would all come together i was a bit nervous that we didn't have a top line but sifu proved me wrong he's a genius and we just did a bunch of takes and let them do their thing and it turned out really well his vocal sounds insane it's not every day you get amazing musicians at your disposal so it's been really really fun having a live drum kit live bass and a singer that can just do everything the sound from the cleric plus kind of gave me that little bit more detail that you usually want when you're kind of doing something you know professional i feel good about it i mean you feel good about what came out of it you | La Boite Noire du Musicien |

1rHzHIH_-Rw | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1rHzHIH_-Rw | Alex and Jim Analyze Billy Joel Lyrics: Episode 10, Goodnight Saigon | hey everybody i hope you had a lovely uh christmas i hope you had a good new years i hope you yeah we'll just stop there for a second i hope you stopped watching tv on the 7th yes but uh if you are a fan of weird things that happened on elvis's birthday this was your year oh my goodness um uh this is episode 10. it's episode 10. diaz as this yeah yeah uh of alex and jim analyze billy joel lyrics true we do that we do it indeed we took uh christmas off and we took new year's off which you think was a good choice um i had a lovely how was your christmas by the way um fine which is my highest rating for christmas yeah was fine um here's the thing that happened my i couldn't go see my mother because of uh kovid sure so she mailed me a huge box with all my presents in it oh and it never arrived so my punishment for that has been talking to her on the phone every single day while she comes up with new ways for me to find the package so she sent me to the post office i got yelled at by the post office and she said maybe it got sent to 15th street instead of 16th street where you live so go talk to the super at 2 50. so i did that nothing and every day she has a new scheme or a new thing that might have happened besides the package being stolen which is definitely the thing that happened yeah so um i offered to just give her the money back for the gifts but i'm told it's not about the money it's apparently it's about the chase uh i happen to know it was a sweater and a wallet two things i have already um god bless her but um my christmas was fine and then everything after that has been uh this weird uh mystery that's not good i it would be awesome if you found out she revealed later just so you know i didn't actually send you any gifts i set you a mystery you know i would respect the hell out of that i wanted i wanted to bond over over loss loss and tragedy i uh for christmas i uh got chinese food which is just what you do if you're a jew best and uh for my wife purchased me crying she got a uh she got a pimping roy orbison 45. she got me a painting of my departed dog buddy such a sweet boy i mean goodness and you know how and i open it up and who i don't know who did it but they're a very good artist and lord she knows you yeah and it felt it was a good cry and it was good to like i've always said about crying you know if if like somebody breaks your heart and you cry that's a good thing because if you didn't cry then it didn't mean anything yeah and also then you get a tumor instead yeah yes yes exactly yeah yeah and i'm saving that for my birthday not christmas yeah yeah yeah it was for my special day yeah exactly they're getting a tumor yeah so and then she got me a bunch of stuff for for my birthday which was a couple days yesterday which was just a bunch of ireland stuff because i had a trip planned to ireland this year and then something happened ah something happened to disrupt my 2020 plans to go to ireland now i'm trying to remember well i couldn't uh speak the language man man i got busy your duolingo was held up i didn't uh i needed to practice drinking oh yeah and you do need practice yeah i think you're famously bad yeah i am practicing a lot but i have not gotten any better i i can like i like bourbon now which is half the problem because it's uh instant it works immediately you don't have that ramp up and i used to love it because uh i would go to parties and then you could just have a bourbon and walk around and it would last you a long time because it's very strong and you don't slam it and you walk around the party and you don't have to talk to the bartender again or get in a line so i loved it but at home you're not talking to anyone so you're just drinking it and it's like in 14 minutes i want to fight and there's no one here it's bad so i'm getting better at uh water i'm getting better at drinking water that's awesome you don't have to do uh and new year's was fine i never cared about new year's so yeah this is the new year's i always wanted which is i'm at home yeah and not trying to find an uber at 3 45 yeah yeah it's new year's has always been dumb the only thing i enjoyed was watching uh some of new year's rock and eve and watching one of the bands i can't remember hugo said um hey you at home clap along that was pretty great because i i know you're trying but no it's ryan yeah nobody knows what to do so i'm uh i'm about to i don't know how much i should disclose well hardly anybody's watching this uh i'm about to write for the golden globes oh great as i have done more than once and uh the first meeting the first meeting is usually like what should we do jokes about and this time the first meeting is what are we gonna do like the two hosts are in two different cities are we gonna have like a zoom audience like every single device is bad yeah so we're gonna have a meeting to decide how to do it oh that's well it really makes me laugh that's awesome um yeah i wish i could record the meeting because it's going to be more fun than the show probably um we'll get into this in a second but i will say that zoom shows one of my favorite things about seth and colbert and you know any of them right now is the excessive pregnant pauses because you know comedians are fundamentally insecure but you don't know that when you watch a comedian because they're continually validated throughout the show right so they hear the okay you're good at this you're good at this you're good at this you're good at this because you hear the laughs and even a guy like seth i know for sure is deeply insecure because he's a comic sure he would you know he's a lovely man but he wouldn't be a comic if he wasn't on some level like trying to prove something up to himself or to the universe or whatever and so watching him go ha is great really television it's very enjoyable uh and especially for us fellow comics who know exactly what's happening yeah every every time his eyes dart around or something and i just want to give him a hug and go that was a good joke that was good it was well told good job we're really enjoying i certainly am enjoying the freedom of uh you know normally you're about to do a joke and you are tense and then the audience laughs and your attention goes away or they don't laugh and your tension ratchets up and now we are operating with neither of those right there's no tension before the joke because you know nothing's gonna happen and then after the joke there's no reward yeah you're just like it's uh like falling through space knowing you're not going to hit anything you're just falling all the time the first couple months of doing zoom shows which are just really better rehearsals is what they are better than a nor you know um i i like it to when i had to give up drinking uh soda because my body was used to this chemical burst and not getting it would give me headaches and the first few months and even now still to a degree but the first few months were like a lot of like surprise sadness and i'm like oh because i'm not getting the endorphins of an audience yeah and now my body doesn't know what to do because it has to go back to trying to be a regular person who should be able to function right so you have all all the things you should have learned in uh 50 years yeah uh you didn't because you had a different thing yep and now uh you're a husk yeah i mean and not just you i mean one is now a husk yes um yeah i you know we talk all the time about what is going to happen to our physical bodies the first time an actual audience rolls in yeah and um a joke really hits and everybody loses their [ __ ] minds with laughter yeah i'm like we just might all our orifices might just open up and we might everything might fall out of us yeah yeah just to be crass but maybe accurate i'm pretty sure i'm gonna come yeah there might be joes i think there will be and you know it'll be natural it'll be the kind where it's super satisfying not to like i had to do this it'll be like wow i feel complete for a second yeah i can really think now yeah you know that feeling when you're with somebody who you actually care about and you're doing the thing versus the perfunctory thing yeah yeah yeah it'll be love jizz right oh that's the song we should have done oh well [Laughter] the song alex picked this week uh before this week he picked at the end of episode nine is a big bite of a song it is good night saigon the big swing i'm gonna give a little background for myself in relationship to vietnam and how i think about vietnam because that the song of course is about vietnam um yes so i grew up i was a little kid in the 70s uh because i was born in 68 so i was a little kid vietnam still existed and there were people who were still dealing with it but but it was at a time when i think probably families for the most part were trying not to talk about it because it was an open wound so of course that means as a kid i didn't hear about it that much and then it became something i heard about mostly through comedians you're george carlin's and stuff right i got vietnam the punchline and i got because of being a in a liberal family i got exclusively for a long time the perspective of a bad unjust war which certainly is a valid point of view and then as i grew up i got now we're just gonna make a [ __ ] ton of vietnam movies so i got that was part of my young movie going experience yeah and then i got mash is korea but it's really vietnam right the movie was korea by the way the movie was about korea it wasn't an allegory it wasn't substituting it was about korea the tv show was vietnam even though it was weird weird tonal shifts for that reason drastic that's just funny and it had multiple tonal shifts it went the shift from the movie to the tv show and then the tv show from the henry blake years to the elena's running everything years oh oh drastic yeah and i love the show regardless of its uh flaws i think that they're artistic flaws from good intentions alan alda is almost the actor's billy joel yes oh my god i'm thinking of there was an episode where there was a he was confronting a colonel and the colonel was very like careless with his troops like getting them hurt and killed all the time uh no sorry the colonel was in charge of like keeping track of how many soldiers died and he had a ledger and he was trying to find out if this kid had died uh and he was being very crass about it and alan alda's character hawkeye uh i was very upset at this colonel and i just remember that he had written the episode and the colonel's name was bloodworth and i was like that's too much it could be henderson you don't have to don't do all the things yeah which you know kind of brings us pretty nicely to this song yeah i wonder if it was originally blood bath and somebody talked him down it was more like alan listen yeah the network called again uh literally i'm who's going to operate on all these soldiers yes do whatever i want and now sex with nurses there was the that was the other turn that happened in the show too was that elena feminist good sure but at some point he became uncomfortable with the womanizing so he made hawkeye uh ridiculed for that which i think actually that's kind of a good creative move sure he kept him a womanizer but he made that not admirable right he made it a character flaw just a thing that happened all the time yeah um i remember the first seasons it was like all the married guys were had girlfriends yeah it was a lot about like casual infidelity anyway that's for another podcast indeed which i'm sure is accurate so getting into um goodnight saigon you're you're growing up with vietnam in a background detail it's very similar to yours in terms of where i learned different things except that i had a parent who was there who had gone to the vietnam war um late in the action and in the back lines but still very much in the warren of the war and so my growing up experience was hearing a lot about why like a lot of obviously defensive behaviors about well we had to be there it was very important that we were there so it you know i was told it was necessary and good and righteous and then shortly after that comedians were telling me otherwise movies were telling me otherwise and uh you know i got into reading a lot about it um and yeah it was a wedge in my family between myself and my dad okay when i wanted to start a fight with him which i did often um that was a good way to do it right yeah it's just a handy thing and be like well why were we even there you idiot and then immediate fight yeah um you know i would have found something else probably but yeah but that was useful wow that was useful yeah um wow and you know i don't know what it did to him i was young enough that i didn't know him before that really yeah um yeah my father was a world war ii veteran and uh a much easier war to um talk about from the sense of yeah you know we all agree we needed to do this right unless you were german you fought on the german side then it was probably rough in your family but like no we had to do this because uh they kill us otherwise yeah but they have different rules so and then before we talk and then billy joel himself and i did a little bit of normally i don't want to research what other people think of a song because i just like to know what you and i think of a song sure because that's the show but it felt like i should at least get some perspective on what other people think since it's a big the topic itself is huge and i thought i wasn't sure because i was like was billy i know billy joel wasn't in vietnam i was like was he even potentially gonna go and yeah he was he was the right age he in an interview once said he had thought about going to canada he was very honest about it in an interview he had thought about scrambling and go to going to canada but he picked a pretty high number in the draft and so he took his chances yeah so he was fairly so he didn't get out of it because of family connections he didn't have that nonsense and he didn't volunteer but he knew a lot of guys who went yeah and i have so much empathy i really do for i have empathy for guys who felt like they had to enlist because i think about myself if i had been that age knowing that my father fought in world war ii and not knowing that this war was going to be garbage right yeah that is another thing that everyone kind of forgets when they're arguing about it is like we didn't know a whole lot beforehand yeah about how unnecessary it was yeah what kind of war it was going to be how long it would last like nobody knew anything uh they just knew that their fathers had gone to world war ii and every generation went to a war and here was a war and and up until then um because you only have you know really all of our perspectives is limited to the 50 or 60 years when we're aware of it as much as we like to think we learn from history we do a little bit but it's that you know palpable history that really matters to us and at that point as far as you know the us only went to wars when they had to and it was good and righteous yeah certainly how it was presented yeah so i have all the sympathy in the world so then getting into this song i would also just like to preface this by saying a lot of veterans love this song yes um i feel like a lot of them hate it also true absolutely a lot of people i remember were mad at him for doing this song because he had not gone yeah which i think is always a little stupid to be mad at an artist you know or somebody for writing a story that didn't actually happen to them because that's all they do is write stories that didn't happen to them yeah whereas you know some version of it probably happened to him and certainly he heard a lot of these stories um but you know he got the same amount of uh pushback from allentown i think a lot of people were mad about allentown because they're like you don't know what it's like being a [ __ ] steel worker he's like yeah of course but nobody wants to hear 500 songs about playing a piano yeah and i think he gets a little bit of the you're not bruce springsteen this is not what you do yeah and i don't think that's fair either because you could like bruce springsteen better if you do i like where springsteen fine but i can't listen to a lot of it the way i can just listen to billy joel so that's just me yeah oh i'm the same i'm like yeah he i think springsteen is a better lyricist but his songs tend to sound the same because he has no vocal range yeah um so it this is better melody and this is a beautiful song melodically it yeah it really is it really is the opening piano chords are amazing yeah let's talk about talk about that and so in the beginning we hear crickets uh we hear crickets and then we hear chopper blades yeah um which is um maybe a little it's a theatrical song yeah for sure um so it's kind of okay yeah i think uh it's also a time when was this 81 81 yes um it was a time when a lot of producers were putting in sound effects and there was a lot going on in the studio for these albums quick side note it occurred to me you could take this song as we've talked about billy joel the uh musical theater guy you could take the song and put it in miss saigon and it would work it would pretty much work it would be perfect yeah i mean you have to change the arrangement it's true you just need a chorus doing it and a chorus doing and we all went down together would kill you in theater you would cry yes you would get a tony they and miss saigon already had the helicopter that came into the set so so yeah the beginning of the song like you said it's a little bit of uh crickets um we hear the helicopter from far away it gets closer and then the piano which is gorgeous the very beginning is very simple considering how much production value that part bare bones just a little teeny tiny entrance yeah nice and like sinister but operatic i love it uh it was one of the few things i learned to play on the piano was just the opening chords i learned to play them over and over again i never got further than that but it was just such a good sound so if anybody needs to hire somebody to play play the beginning of this song i'll get you started you're the guy you got to take it from there um but on the one thing i will say about this song is as we go through it it seems like a song not about vietnam but about vietnam movies yeah there are a lot of it's a little it's a little uh billy the kid in some way it's like i mean tonally the idea that we were all gung-ho and we all couldn't wait and i was like wait a minute that is absolutely not the take on vietnam yeah that everybody was gung-ho and we would all go down together i think the tone was let's get out of here yeah we don't like this i don't think you can tell from the lyrics but maybe i just don't know enough about the military but i have been told i've read that specifically just for a little background it's about marines that's what i've been told paris island parasol there you go marine training base okay there you go so that's why don't you take us through the beginning of the lyrics well that is also probably why he got some more [ __ ] for it his marines don't want anyone they wouldn't let army people sing this song we met as soul mates on paris island there you go we left as inmates from an asylum uh i want to know does that mean we left paris island or vietnam i feel like it's we left we met in in paris island and then when this was all over we were nuts we left as inmates from an asylum okay some of us then got released into the streets because reagan was a monster right and nobody wants to fund the va yeah uh in either party yeah there i brought the nation together and we were sharp as sharp as knives does it echo there it does not not yet not yet right and we were so gung-ho to lay down our lives yeah now that you mentioned the marines i'm like that more likely accurate yeah um i grew up knowing a lot of people who had gone to vietnam and they were like my dad and his friends and none of them were super invested in the outcome of the war it was more about their personal outcome and how soon they could get back yeah and or stay alive and or what they could steal and ship home in some cases uh or what like side deals they had or who they could have sex with and marry yeah um so they were a little less targeted than the marines those are better priorities anyway yeah probably a little less dangerous yeah i think um that we met as soul mates yeah i'm not sure what that means um is is it it feels like that means you're you're trying to say that are we're bond it's a it's a bad metaphor i think is what it is a little bit because soulmates it's because i know what i think i know what he's trying to say which is that we're bound together with this common yeah we're we had a brotherhood yeah um yeah the idea that we met as soul mates yeah i think it was it's do you do crossword puzzles uh not really sometimes in a crossword puzzle they'll have like a little extra game inside of it and when they do that they often have to cram in a lot of weird words that don't quite work yeah just so that the game works and that's what this is i think he read he saw the phrase paris island and then he got an asylum you know oh [ __ ] that's great and now i'm going to cram in the rest of it so i can have a sweet rhyme are you talking about like when they do like sort of cryptic crosswords within crosswords or yeah or like oh the the clues in the middle like make a picture or something or okay yes yes or it's a whole puzzle without using the letter v [Music] so they have these extra little games sometimes and it always [ __ ] up the rhythm yeah crossword puzzles always uh i like the idea of a crossword puzzle and then sometimes i've done crossword puzzles and i have thought am i just dumb and then i'm like this is not good for my self-esteem i think i'm just not going to do crossword puzzles yeah it's you get better at them if you do a lot of them and then you realize oh never about me being smart it was about knowing what crossword puzzles want like it was less fun right yeah i have a friend who made a living for a little while making crossword puzzles and right very nice books and stuff and yeah he would he designed cryptic crosswords which he tried to teach me how they work and i think they're neat but i'm just i just can't it's too much it's hard to talk me in to walk into watching a whole season of a show because i feel like there's too much commitment gotcha so yeah it's not for you yeah i like a thing that you do and then that's done yeah i think that's you know a lot of us end up in comedy it's like all right i only have to write five minutes worth of [ __ ] yeah great and then the great yeah then when i'm done telling these jokes no one needs no one's gonna ask me to tell them again until unless i want to right yeah yeah yeah you're done and we are so gung-ho to lay down our lives i like that lyric i guess the other thing i'd say about that lyric before we move on is that that's such a it is true that people romanticize war and maybe less so now but still i'm uh googling because i want to know the origin of the phrase gung-ho oh okay yeah thought to have originated from chinese huh i guess uh yeah that would have been a pretty good guess yeah and just i mean even just to contextualize that lyric with the events of the last week you've seen people who romanticized a dumb cause supporting a game show host who's lying about the election and yet so many layers of stupidity in believing and all that stuff and yet you had people who were ready to late and in a per in one woman's case did lay down her life yeah so so the lyric rings true yeah you do have to put put aside a lot of critical thinking to get that enthusiastic about something yeah again like i think to myself i'm like i like comic books right i like comic book movies and pop culture i've never gone to comic con or dressed up because i'm like i'm not gonna go buy a costume or make one [ __ ] you i'm not gonna do that and then to have them to feel that way about no i i can't imagine feeling that way but yeah i don't get it yeah the things you have to not think about to get there yeah i do i don't want to do anything yeah i mean look at this look at us now like let's take a thing we already like and know about yeah we'll sit in chairs and talk about it do you know how much i edit on this show no i don't i have never looked at it but i knew that anyway because i know you like no he's not going to go through this and cut out this [ __ ] nope this is the show hope you enjoy it you humps do you want billy joel content it's nine percent of what we're talking about that's what you get yep do the next chunk of lyrics all right we are [ __ ] like nameless horses we left left in plastic as numbered corpses i think that might that's brutal but i think that's kind of um perfectly written don't you think i think it is very much not the first draft he yeah obviously had written nameless corpses and then somebody explained to him no the names are on the corpses yeah you have to change that dummy yeah and also if you say nameless corpses you're talking about a a different issue with vietnam yeah which is bad we learned yeah filing yeah we learned fast to travel light our hands our arms were heavy but our bellies were tight i feel like it should be our arms were heavy and our bellies were tight i don't know why right yeah yeah yep that makes sense our arms were heavy i get it and our belly we were we were overworked and under fed right that's what yeah i think that's what we're going for yeah um arms uh i assume he means actual arms and not armaments yeah well i'm assuming yeah i'm picturing that your arms are heavy yeah our arms are heavy because we're loaded down with arms [ __ ] right yeah uh i have no qualms with that set of lyrics just as far as what it communicates to me it does paint a picture we left in plastic might be like the harshest thing in any of his songs yeah that is grim yeah and accurate yeah um but it he should have changed tameless horses because you think he's gonna say nameless corpses it's so glaring to me that he wrote nameless and then had a meeting and probably got belligerent in the meeting and they said nope the names are on them because dog tags yeah do you know about dog tags and how they operate in war uh so i'm familiar with dog tags being your id but why don't but go go more into it metal dog tags there's always two of them in case something happens um but every dog tag it has a notch in it at the top and what is supposed to happen i have heard um is when you come across a fallen comrade you are supposed to take that dog tag and stick it between that person's teeth and then pick their jaw shut so that the dog tag goes up inside the skull between the front two teeth and can't be easily removed so that when that body is shipped they will absolutely know who it is wow that's why it has a little notch in it yeah growing up military um is uh weird for show-and-tell in fourth grade wow yeah so not nameless numbered yeah okay wow that's intense i uh i remember coming across my father's purple heart because my father uh lost a leg i think you probably know this everybody knows this right now yeah and uh it sounds to me like you were able to occasionally at least talk to your father about the subject we just never talked about it because my dad had what we would now recognize as ptsd sure and what was at that point called uh mean father who hits but yeah but of course he never got like because like we said before we are not a good cut we are a good country if you want a country that goes to war you're not we're not the best country if you want a country that takes care of its veterans yeah it's the coming back from the wars we're not good at yep as uh yeah and you will find that uh people are like worry about the budget suddenly when it's that part of military spending yes gross gross that's the less expensive part if you were gonna do it yeah yeah uh grim but you know it's a grim song yeah um here's where i think this next uh verse i guess it's a verse it's very loose um this is where i started to think like oh he maybe watched movies about vietnam more documentaries and less uh talked to anybody um we had no home front we had no soft soap they sent us playboy they gave us bob hope two bad things and then two fine things i don't know if i'm supposed to feel the same way about all those things i liked it is they sent us playboy said with disdain or is that like at least there was this yeah i feel like or was it just like here's a thing people will recognize as a vietnam thing yeah because i saw it in three movies in a dock also i don't know who sends like well i guess people do send you playboy but i think you can just subscribe yourself if you need oh really from vietnam oh maybe you can't yeah maybe yeah i wonder the bob hope thing is funny to me because my dad was in world war ii so if he saw bob hope he was seeing bob hope the funniest version of bob hope you were gonna see yes but if you saw bob hope in vietnam you'd be like i don't like bob hope i'm 20. i'm 20. it's the 70s i want to see carlin oh he's not coming it's bob hope he very much does not want to be here got it but as far as a stereotypical thing that did happen it definitely was you know in vietnam it would have been bob hope and then six ladies with nice boobs sure joey heatherton joey heatherton yeah and uh and telling you that this is what you're fighting for boys right and like also in world war ii you got bob hope who was a little more he was a little more present to the actual situation and by the 70s the bob hope you got was the guy who was a super pro industrial complex guy whether he knew it or not he was sure he was like and that's not really what you want to see if you're stuck there and you're like oh yeah this isn't this guy's happy i'm here yeah huh um but then again you know how it is when you're in a terrible situation and somebody gives you any entertainment you're like yeah i'll go see that yep so then we go we dug in deep and shot on sight and pretty much huh already not true okay there's a very famous statistic maybe this is not true of marines but there is a very famous statistic about how few soldiers in vietnam actually fire their weapons oh there's a large percentage who just didn't shoot they just hid as they should because they didn't want to kill somebody they didn't want to kill somebody because they were draftees like well i don't want to be here in the first place i'm certainly not going to kill a guy yeah i'm also this is our most common episode yeah they kind of look understood it was you know after the summer of love and the beginning of understanding that people are all the same kind of yeah so there was the beginning of that consciousness in this country and also how old was the average soldier 19 yeah yeah remember there was a song yeah no no 19. yes the average soldier in world war ii was 27 i think yeah i'm throwing out a lot of stats that i have not looked up so i just want to put that out there as a disclaimer if anything strikes you as a something to raise a flag around check it first because i don't know but this is what i remember having heard you're the billy joel of statistics uh people love my early stuff yeah you're giving people i i just want to paint give you a sense of statistics yeah yeah i don't think he would tell you to look it up but i will but we dug in deep and shot on sight and prayed to jesus christ with all of our might yeah yeah probably most of you not billy joel if he was there but nope famously mad at the catholic church for not letting him have sex with that lady [Laughter] now maybe no i was going to say this my least favor but it might not be we had no cameras to shoot the landscape false he also vice false the most photographed war there ever was yeah um you personally maybe didn't as a soldier have a camera yeah you probably had a journalist and some of you had cameras and some of you had cameras a lot of people had cameras my dad came back with a lot of [ __ ] photos yeah uh he wasn't in combat but still um we passed the hash pipe and played our doors tapes yeah this is the movie part for sure this is the movie that's platoon yeah right yeah literally doors in the soundtrack platoon or is it apocalypse now i want to say his platoon way more 60s music right than apocalypse yeah i think so yes yeah um a side note uh many years ago i thought if i ever had wrote did a vietnam movie i would love to do it with music by like the girl groups and specifically leslie gore and i had in my mind an idea of these guys are going into combat there's agent orange there's blood everywhere and it goes sunshine lollipops and i just think that would be very funny it would be very funny and uh i also got pretty tragic and great yeah yeah it'd just be bad and like herman's hermits oh something tells me i'm into something good yeah yeah guys i'm ener oh so yeah so that's the movie and then you know and it was dark so dark at night i don't think we're to the echo yet are we i think that might be the first one yeah at night and he does the echo himself right it's not an effect i feel like he does he does in concert and i think that's weird it's weird it is weird when i'm listening to the song and i'm just enjoying the song i can let it just wash over me yeah but when i think about it it seems silly it's very silly and i think he uh was writing the song and was like oh this part should echo so in his like you know apartment or whatever writing a song yeah and it's like oh then it'll go so dark at night night night that'll be cool and then in the studio they had to say billy we can do that back here we can do that with the board you don't have to do that he's like oh right okay i won't do it and then he did it again and they're like you know what leave it in it's just you can't talk to him yeah just leave it in who cares and because if you had used an echo effect it would just be a proper echo that went away pretty quick it would feel it would feel good whereas this when he goes night night night night you're just you're just repeating a word over and over again which also isn't how yeah those work exactly they fade they fade and also it's not evocative of like being in the jungle in vietnam yeah which i is very soundproof i would think like if this was a song about being camping in a canyon yeah it'd be a different thing but this is like a weird choice yeah it it's then when it becomes well when it becomes sue a little bit musical theater at that point yeah and it feels like if those and again it's a good song and it's the intentions behind it i think are sincere yeah i think he's coming at it from uh like if you didn't go but your buddies did and you're an artist you're going to tell that story this is what you do yeah yeah and again i agree with you it's silly to be upset that why who are you to tell the story i'm like well then who is anybody to tell any story yeah if you can only tell your story then uh that's one album yep and also quit talking about rome none of you were romans yeah and uh give up acting completely yeah that didn't happen to you oh you want to tell me this bible story no i know you're none of these people yeah hello i'm jeffrey no you're not that's the character's name liar you're a liar you're not jeffrey this place sucks oh it was dark so dark at night night night uh-huh and we held on to each other like brother to brother this is better than the soul mates part yeah we all don't shoot each other like brother to brother that makes sense we promised our mothers we'd write i like that yeah this is now like that feels very real and true yeah um because you absolutely did do that if you were there yep that feels like at least uh a thing you can relate to without going to vietnam like you've all been in circumstances where you like hang on to your brothers and you're like we're together and this is us and uh and you write your mother yep um without you know i don't need a hash pipe and the doors yeah well i have been in that circumstance too [Laughter] um and we would all go down together we said we'd all go down together yes we would all go down together i like it me too it's uh absolutely how you would react you know yeah the bonding under fire um and it's as a phrase standalone it's maybe a little hokey but that's what hulk is for i think is those times in life yeah you know yep you're i'm okay with it it occurs to me too that lyric when i think about it it um you know if you're ever talking to say a marine and they're telling you a real story or just any military person and they're telling you a real story if you have any self-awareness if you haven't been in that situation you never go i can relate yeah because you can't and there are certain situations that are like that where there's nothing else like it like if you've never been married and somebody's telling you what it's like to be married you can you could go well i've been in relationships and whatever but it's not the same yeah and if you've never been in the military which i have not a lot of my family has been my father my brothers my uncle my grandfather not me so you know when people are telling what it's like guys like us who haven't been there if we're wise we go man that's some intense it's i can kind of imagine but lord yeah yeah and and that speaks to that line i think we we would all go down together because they're bonded with an experience that is uniquely theirs and it probably speaks to why some people are critical of the song yes yep because they uh have not been there yeah because it's and like he's but there's nothing i one of the critiques the song gets by the way which i find i'm also pretty sure is a dumb critique is people say he doesn't take a side in the like was it a good or bad war in the uh vietnam controversy yeah about whether or not they should have been at war at all it doesn't song doesn't say that he shouldn't have been there or should have but i mean he absolutely addresses it yeah in the next verse which has a huge built-in problem oh yeah there you go well he doesn't say who is wrong okay go ahead why don't you say this one remember charlie now if you know anything about vietnam you know that that was the name for the enemy yeah so what is he doing because the next line is remember baker so in his head is this like two guys that he went there with because if one of them is charlie you should change the name for the song so what i read was that charlie and baker are two military code word things so because i was curious about because i have always heard it the same way that you're hearing it which is remember charlie oh yeah so you're referencing the enemy um remember baker but then what i read is those are actually um things i don't know if they'd be call signs or whatever but it's a military code so i've read that do you want to google that while i read the rest of this yeah i do they left their childhood on every acre ah that's a good line they left their childhood on every acre 19 year old guys fighting across yeah that feels that's not that's nice and sad it's maybe it's not as sad as left we left in plastic but it's still pretty sad uh they are company identifiers charlie company and baker company yeah so that's what i had read huh yeah i guess so i would bet that um if we see i still blame him because it's confusing yeah but if we looked it up i bet we would learn that charlie company and baker company had some particularly brutal times yeah there or particularly difficult assignments i don't know but it's written as though that is two guys yeah and and and i think you're right in that the name charlie is complicated uh to use it in this context because it's just you know something people said to identify where you know we were looking out for charlie i do remember hearing charlie company and i don't remember what it was so here i go again googling it charlie company uh is a rifle company of american soldiers yeah it was a rifle company okay they did have a particularly difficult time 45 members of charlie company are found responsible for crimes ranging from violation of the rules of war to murder ah okay not great all right charlie that's not great i mean rules of war is already uh a problematic phrase yeah um isn't that when all the rules break down you result resort to war i don't know yeah baker company um yields results for a lot of companies that provide baking materials all right and who was wrong and who was right it didn't matter in the thick of the fight um that's a good observation um certainly true to the persons in the thick of the fight it ultimately it does of course matter yeah somewhere to someone indeed it just doesn't matter that day for sure and uh well no that still matters but on a very personal basis you're just trying to get home alive i think it's uh he's okay to say the song doesn't take a side because the person in the circumstance couldn't take a side yeah so why should i and i i agree and also i don't know that i would want because you'd hate that song more if it was just this heavy-handed yeah you know if it was just there was a lyric of like and you know it was a bad war shouldn't have been there whatever the lyrics would have been you'd be like ah yeah if you didn't go if he had gone and then written a song about how shitty it was to go okay just now that i think about it the songs that were about why about it's a bad war those songs exist and they're almost exclusively about f this and they're not about the experience the idea that that shouldn't have happened yeah and those were protest songs written by some people who just were like hell no i'm not gonna go or people who had to go so right and also a quick reminder kids this is why the hippies were wrong vote yes definitely vote don't drop out vietnam may not have happened that way if they didn't uh decide to abdicate the power to the old folks yup and the other thing is the the hippies were right do definitely demonstrate and march yes helped it helped so they were wrong and they were right exactly do the whole thing participate vote participate on all the levels yeah but don't abdicate government people now the song gets quiet um he says uh in the next lyric which i like um we held the day in the palm of our hand they ruled the night and the night seemed to last as long as six weeks on paris island that's a nice thing that's a perfect it's a perfect little it's almost like a haiku yeah um obviously it's too many syllables it is a perfect little uh bridge it's a true true thing about what it was like fighting that war from uh all accounts i've heard daytime was good we were in charge your choppers could fly but they ruled the night and the nights were terrifying and super long and six weeks of course is uh how long basic training is yeah you got six weeks of training and then they sent you to a war you're 19. you know and it's worth noting that what this lyric is alluding to is one of the reasons vietnam was so problematic as far as beyond just whether or not it should have happened yeah but was that the military was under prepared to fight in a jungle yeah so whatever training you got you didn't get you didn't get the right training because the right training didn't exist for the military there is almost nowhere in the us that uh looks like that yeah yeah you can't even recruit people who kind of are passingly familiar i mean maybe some part of florida i don't know but they could not have imagined yeah and um i've talked to a friend of mine have been talking about politics the last couple days because you know of course and uh 911 one of the failures they mentioned was a failure of imagination right yeah talking about about a thing happened partly because it was outside of your scope of experience to imagine that thing happening right and likewise the um insurrection in the capital one of the reasons it didn't get clamped down as fast as people think it should and as fast as it should have right simply because you were talking about something that you you didn't really imagine what happened so it's a failure of imagination and likewise this song is referencing a failure to imagine oh wait a minute the circumstances in which we're fighting are not what we're training for so it's not app training so yeah so you are untrained effectively yeah the the thing you were gonna go do you're not doing that right so that's awesome um and yeah now it's really into very operatic uh and orchestral yeah we held the coastline they held the highlands uh and they were sharp ooh a turn around they were sharp as sharp as knives and this is nice nice knives nice knives they heard the hum of the motors they counted the rotors and waited for us to arrive did your dad ever mention the count of the rotors thing no okay he was in the back line repairing radios there wasn't a lot of chopper traffic for him um but that idea that you know the whole song has been about us soldiers until the end here yeah and it really you know the the song kind of ends with them being in charge yeah um they ruled the night they held the highlands and they were sharp as sharp as knives um by all accounts of military with much less formal training but uh home field advantage yeah and fighting for um well the thing is they knew what they were fighting for right yeah because that's their home [ __ ] existence yeah yeah and their enemy what were not entirely sure why they were there yep they were prepared in many ways yeah uh and it yeah it was proof that you can't finance your way to victory yeah we still try yeah overall uh overall a good song musically it's fantastic yeah and it does it feels like it feels like it's a song based on songs about vietnam like it sounds without the lyrics you could play it and it's like a war song yeah it does feel like that yeah um and it closes out it's nice it's one of the songs he wrote what he's done which has an absolute ending which is nice i like that we've talked about that before sometimes we don't it closes with the same piano that we started with yeah we got crickets and then silence and you know songs every song ends in silence of course but this feels like silence is part of the song which any i think he pulls that off really well yeah i think you're right it does feel like that long night yeah so yeah there is some melodrama here but i don't think it's um there there's nothing cynical about his intentions i don't think i think this is a well this is a man our our good friend billy joel who intends who intends to pay tribute to friends of his that have gone yeah to speak to the experience as an artist i don't think he ever pretended to be the guy you know he never misrepresented his experience like i said he very publicly said yeah i thought about going to canada right yeah the song is uh you know has a lot of questions about the war but it's very supportive of troops yeah not a bad word to say about the troops yeah um and yeah it is very it's a very fair treatment and a little yeah there's a little hokiness and i think it's just what we all do where we sort of when we don't have experience we sort of fill in blanks with things we've seen in movies and books we've read yeah like oh yeah vietnam they definitely listen to the doors a lot over there yeah and then you're like wait why do i know that yeah oh that movie um my mother does this to me all the time she's an 82 year old woman who watches a lot of uh hour-long dramas so she thinks that every street corner on new york has a mugging in action and like dead bodies with chalk outlines she's like but she will say to me be careful when you go out there's a lot of mugging in new york and i will say why why do you say that and then she'll inevitably reference a tv show and i'll say well see that was made up based on a true story you gotta remember that 55 tv shows are based on one incident yeah yeah and yeah and if yeah if you watch law and order or any of those shows you're gonna think man a lot oh yeah i don't want to look in any dumpsters because they all have hookers in them oh dead hookers you know this song is on uh nylon curtain is that right and that uh which we talked about before means the suburbs yeah um the organized original suburbs where they uh excluded uh people of color um but i think that album is i'm going to call it his uh disillusionment album if you will listen to it it's kind of political and it's kind of like he's too old at this point to have all these realizations but he does sound like a kid coming home from college for the first thanksgiving yeah you [ __ ] people lied to me man i don't eat meat anymore um is this i think what else is on this album is it pressure in allentown i think so yeah both you know songs of disillusionment scandinavian skies scandinavia the disillusionment of touring yeah great way it's fantastic right it might be my favorite one yeah like oh he's in a bad mood as usual but with a point he's not just mad because he's mad yeah like no i have actions and like allentown is a very specific place and event and um you know he doesn't document historical events that frequently yeah it's a lot of like we were down at the soda shop and i had a leather jacket on this is like things that happened to other people yeah um the song is pretty economical too now that we've gone through it it's it benefits from not being longer than it should be he doesn't you know he he doesn't tell you they listen to doors and then go and also the who yeah they're really a character it's just we yeah there isn't like a guy and making it wii solves a thing that would have been a problem if it was a character because when you talk about numbered corpses then you would wonder so is the dead guy singing but you don't have to have that problem yeah no because now this is a general experience so that if one of your brothers died it's as if you died because you know my nephew was in uh iraq and he wears a band like this mine is for an allergy his is for uh a memorial for a friend right and uh he uh he went there pretty gung-ho because he you know 911 and he was the right age to go and he was also the right age to be filled with youthful passion and want to go do something and uh you know and it changed him and uh we've as a family have struggled with the va access and wanna you know so when i think about people bound together in that well he for the rest of his life we'll think about that guy and uh the band itself has broken once or twice he's gotten it replaced but he got so frustrated with that that he got a tattoo of the band because he's like i'd never want it to be gone i want to always have his name here yeah because uh you know it's impossible for us to know what that is yeah there is yeah there isn't any knowing that there isn't any like what it would be like you know we can picture almost picture the like event but what we'll never be able to picture is what it's like to have it be three in the morning and to open up your eyes and to be back there and to be feeling that particular anxiety that particular sadness that particular disconnect at full volume yeah yeah um i i think you know uh this world would be a lot better if if people could admit that they just will never know what somebody else's experience is yeah there are too many people who want to say like i'm a wealthy white person but i can imagine what it's like to be a poor black person yeah you just cannot yeah and you know that's when you have to do that before you shut up and listen to somebody and not enough people want to shut up yeah i guess there's no money in it there's no social media there should be a social media network for people who just want to listen yeah my friend was observing that they're now on youtube and podcasts and whatever there are shows where people just talk about what other people were talking about on another show yeah that sounds just like an sctv sketch that doesn't sound like that should be real life but yeah it's a real thing i've seen [Music] there's a diamond behind you there is i think that's a diamond it's just a very specific pattern it is it i believe actually this is an artificial diamond but i don't know that that matters it is indeed a diamond diamond it's a big diamond i got nothing they're difficult to make i'll say that ah yes you can only make them under uh pressure that's right i did it yup good job [Music] ah that's excellent kind of perfect right that's not bad that's that was a pretty good hint that was a pretty good one right pressure yeah good hint um you didn't have to give multiple hints no which is very good now this is i did i ended up doing the smarter version of what i was gonna do originally i got a picture of the machine they used to make artificial diamonds and i was like well that's dumb how would he know what that machine's for yeah that's a good point oh perfectly done yeah and it's a great back yeah it's cute right yeah between that background and the shirt you're wearing it's very star trek oh nice it is it's almost like a star trek uniform crap and then you're like shadowed by an inexpensive alien and this is the this is the later in the season star trek outfit where the actor is starting to get fat because he's been working all year and they're late for the summer to come up yep crap services yeah so let's get the thing to wind in front and constantly doing this there's a lot of people who like next generation one of the things they observe is that picard is constantly going it's a thing he's constantly having to pull his s so yeah it's pretty funny and then the will riker turn away people love that oh yeah i've always liked the the leg up on the chair oh the leg up for the chair is great oh fantastic now do you have a bit of trivia for us oh man you know what i failed i failed to track down some trivia here's what i'm going to do i've got to look some up and steal it while you're doing that i will tell everybody what we're going to talk about next week oh i'm excited this is yeah say more a a friend of the show who likes our little show wanted us to talk about their favorite billy joel song and i gotta say i like this song it seems almost strange for this to be your favorite considering how all the songs billy joel has done all for elena oh wow that's a very good song it is it's uh terrifying yeah now as it as a preview is that song supposed to be funny i don't think so okay we'll talk more about it because i've always taken it i've always found it to be somewhat comedic huh all right i want to do it again i know the piano is crazy yeah it is it's crazy it doesn't sound like much of his other stuff yeah uh but great yeah hey did you uh did you ever hear uh uh what billy joel's first top ten song was that's pretty simple to be a question that i never thought about and just looked up i am gonna say his first top 10 song was uh just the way you are you are correct nicely done i was weird about that song too this is how long billy joel's been part of the uh pop culture zeitgeist is that don't go changing ends up being this generic phrase if you're referencing someone who's smarmy yeah right yeah but it wasn't then it's just that this was this is a it's a beautiful song it's just an am radio song it's a soft rock song yes it was uh yeah it was definitely it was the style at the time as they say yeah uh don't go changing yeah and that's and they'll add a babe to it to hey don't go changing babe or whatever but it's a great song it's a great song and and certainly in of a certain spirit at the time but now post multiple waves of feminism it's very controlling yes just him telling her all the things she must not do yeah do not color your hair no i don't like that always have my unspoken yeah unspoken passion i don't want to talk to you because that's what women like they like they want you to care but just don't bring it up don't say it to them well we can't start a whole new episode now no yeah but that's a preview of when one of us eventually picks that song right all for elena all right yeah and i'm very pleased that somebody else picked this song that's just a delightful thing to have had happen yeah that's fantastic i would not have picked it for a long time yeah glass houses the last song on side one maybe yeah maybe yeah and you are right as the preview it is musically nice and different from a lot of stuff he does yeah it's very crazy okay and if it's and if it's about a woman he actually dated i'm glad he got out alive yeah based on just the piano of it yeah it's so scattered and crazy all right great i will look forward to it nice job everybody i hope you enjoyed and we'll talk to you soon see you next time | The Jim Bruce | UCq_zhAL8m7YE_gaHkjOfjRg | 2021-01-10 | Creative Commons

WXdjSe03Y7o | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WXdjSe03Y7o | BBBB636. What is A game about counting cats’ shapes and colours that keeps getting trickier.? | [Music] games boards games boards games i might be talking about a game about counting cats shapes and colors that keeps getting trickier but i'm not gonna shout i am starting off this streaming with a little bit of singing and today i guess i'll explain the rules and the history of this game and maybe how it could be taught if this is a game that you have bought a game about counting shapes and colors that keeps getting trickier is what i'm talking about a game about cancer cats shapes and colors that keeps getting trickier i'm not gonna shout hello good morning good afternoon good whatever it is wherever you are it is approximately 10 a.m uk time which means that's it's time for busy beats and board game leather and today i am going to talk about this game just to let you know i do not have the overhead camera working and but i will make it work and then also chris is with me and is counting up all the number of votes double checking that everyone who retweeted was actually following and presumably putting all the names into some sort of list all the twitter names amazing and um what i'll do is i will explain this game i'll do my regular bits i'll explain all about this game and then we'll draw a prize i think that seems like reasonable order to do things in so let's crack on with recent highlights recent highlights living life and seeing the sights recent highlights recent highlights playing games and other likes recent highlights so i played quite a few games yesterday they were all mine i played a game about whimsical creatures and trying to identify them after some mixed noises with four people in the pub and also as part of my pitching yesterday i did play the game about counting colors cats shapes and colors that keeps getting trickier and yeah actually we played quite a few of them we played a game about matching words to pictures but never word swords or pictures to pictures like we played the full thing because it is such a quick game and we also played a game about quickly grabbing creatures that are totally different and counting your turnips the prequel to counting your beetroots so yeah good morning josie it is lovely to see you and i hope that you are generally well um i'm actually trying to remember what's other games i pitched so yesterday i also pitched drawn together which they liked and i pitched a game about drawing creatures complementing the drawings and complements and compliments which we did not play but they really liked and the only one that they did not like so much was a game about whimsical creatures and trying to identify the author's sonic's noises and in the pub someone came over to me and said that they were interested in it so i gave them a copy so basically all the games that i took i am yeah they've got some file which is amazing and you know leading into which chris today's one of the things we need to do so for those who cannot see which is everyone chris we need to make some videos both for people who might be learning my games and also for pitching like i need to make short two minute videos and josie says i'm surprised that was their least favorite apparently what they were concerned about was that it would be a bit too extroverted like they felt like they said yeah we would do another charades game of course but something where people are making noises we feel like this might just be a non-starter and also i think that you know i've taken a lot of stuff i've taken like six totally different games i was expecting them to maybe keep hold of two of them or something but yeah the fact that they kept told all five of them and then at rights at the end of the night after i'd had a few drinks and then the person who i was talking to my mainly always on came over and started talking like how much money i could they would be likely to give me like that's a really good sign and i'm not going to discuss that exact number in public because i feel like that's kind of confidential information but um no i'm like it's just i feel like it went spectacularly well i'm just super excited by it good morning ian it is lovely to see you and um yeah that is that and berlin think brilliant thing what's a little thing which is brilliant i think that for me a brilliant thing is hearing someone else super passionate about something that you kind of know but maybe not as well as them and then it's really interesting and if you feel like you can add to the conversation so someone there was really into video games like their job right now is to make toys and their past jobs they've been like the graphic designer for the misfits and like the band and then some other bands and then they also did some fashion labels earlier in their life which like a really eclectic stuff going on and then they were talking about um triple a titles versus indie titles talking about undertale and stuff and also have you played mega man 9 and we i kind of um yeah they raised this it was just really nice having something that you feel able to contribute to and i felt and i was watching how much i spoke because i'm aware that sometimes i can not play as a conversation so i made sure that i spoke less than the person on my right which was like kind of my liaison because you know they know all these people so if i speak more than them then i'm really doing something wrong i felt i mean but yeah i just gauging that but like was just brilliant being able to chat to someone about something um so ian said thank you for um your congratulations um finchy says i love noises it's one of my favorites but i'm pleased so pleased it went well for you ian says i'm on a break that works i only have five minutes well lots of love and um i mean up lies conversation no i'm not sure if he i'm not sure if that's the sound of dismay or of ian being sarcastic do you think the lights are chris chris is thinking that's everyone thinks i even applies a conversation no [Music] i'm going to stick up my fingers at chris and i'm making a gesture at chris um and ian has confirmed that they are and being sarcastic um oh ian's drinking coffee with her cat's hands josie's putting yeah kettle ornaz at least kitkat is a red snack so it's all branded so anyway talking about um pardon me talking about yeah brilliant things and conversations and monopolizing things let's stop this because it's already been 11 minutes or seven minutes and let's talk about the main topic which is a game about ma um counting cats shapes and colors that keeps getting trickier it's like what's his name on this game for a moment so you've got let me um move this camera i again i do apologize for the lack of overhead camera but hopefully we can make it work so you've got three different shapes of cats you've got the round cats the lying down cats and so this was based off a cat that's actually falling down into photo like jumping but i call it the dancing car because it kind of looks like it's dancing what do you think should be the official name for it chris you are allowed to give it an official name right now oh oh no that's too much pressure okay um i think it's like dancing slash like stretching out yeah you know on its back okay so should we call it the dancing cats the lying cats andy curled cat sure for now yeah or the bald up cats i don't know let me kind of make sure the comments sorry about this um calling the cat josie wants it to be calling the cat i mean that could be colin's aunts and cats that could be um jess the hell lying down cats and um no i don't know anyway dark hats you've also got two colors which are this sort the reddish and this sort of purpley blue i do want well i'll get to that later on but i i'm not sure that these were the right colors i do in retrospect wonder if we should have done a darker red and a lighter kind of yellowish that might have been a good color but anyway on the other side you've got cats which are one of these three color free shapes and one of these two colors sometimes they are all the same color sometimes they are a variety of colors and this side shows the things that you will be counting so let me lift that slightly i think that's good okay so chris and i are going to play very quickly which is probably the easiest way to show how this game works ignore the cards that you are about to flip over you just look at this side which means that you can't hold a balled up cat and anyone can shout out the number and slap the pile which would mean that you would shout for example one and chris slapped and now takes the card and chris's card let's see if he can get out give me the car i'm trying to see where we can go and it's still on camera um no worries yeah um let's move that and this yep this it can be there okay so now in a free pl really this game is for free players let's say that this is alex and this is best sampling has two players so chris you flip over the card but you're not allowed to count so we ignore the top one we're just looking at the dancing cats we count so many dancing cats and alex shouts alex has a weird american accent for some reason to distinguish alex from bez is that's even an american accent i know um so alex who said wow em is able to take the cards and now alex is flipping and it's between bez and chris but the twist is that bears could shout zero and beds would win i would win but chris would have to shout too i mean one because there's one already here just like wibble you are shouting you're counting not only the one in the middle but everything you've already collected um so ian says it should be the prancing cat josie says it's looks like it's going tada and josie says nice nail polish thank you so um yeah bez shouted zero and now beds flips so it's between alex and chris and you just need to count the red cats so the wonder eight no you are counting the one in the middle plus the one yours plus the one over here you don't count anyone else's you that has to be in uh that's why it's left right gotcha sorry so normally you'd put them a bit further apart but chris made a mistake chris loses everything well chris flip over the next card i don't know what's alex and this is alex's weird accent so as you can see there was one balled up cat that's alex already had and one new bulldog cat in the middle and now alex is flipping and this time counts all the lying down perfect so you do need to make sure that um you shout the number before you slap so flip it so now you need to count both of these so both did prancing and the bald upcat so for me it would be one two three four five for alex it would be one two three four five six seven again you're counting your own that you've already collected plus the one in the middle um five day and i flip over yeah chris is right it was two because chris's previous one was totally red so there you go thank you and now you flip again the game carries on until someone gets five cards four chris is look you are allowed to laugh out loud i know you remind me it reminds me of like the penguin from batman or something um six so best managed to get one so you're counting the dancing and lying down and there's one two three four who which are pronouncing and there's one two which are lying down again i do apologize for the lack of overhead camera um let's see if i can get them both on and i will try and do another video of this another time um seven let's check so it's up to the person who was flipping to judge it um so one two three four five six seven congratulations and yes joe she says yeah alex does have the weirdest voice and yes it keeps getting triggered that is the whole point it does get tricky it gets very tricky so chris could you flip over a card maybe there um what number was that what what do you think that's alex is hard to understand no yes maybe a little bit um so it's lying down and build up cats which are one two three four five six seven eight boom so alex is on four if alex gets one more alex will win the game [Music] dance and cats oh chris has one two three four and now come on best don't let alex win so it's four one two three four yeah i managed now if chris gets it right chris will win otherwise if alex gets it right alex will win but if someone gets it wrong they will lose everything so five you got five first yeah so it is to alex one two three four five curled up cats and yeah hopefully you can see so hopefully that makes sense um josie says that could have been any number from alex um is that the trick to the game just make yourself so hard to understand that nobody knows which number you chose no that would be cheating look if we heard it from the creator themselves that you your numbers have to be intelligible yeah you have to say the numbers in a manner that people can understand but yes that's the entire game and um i had some things that i wanted to say so what is a game about counting cats shapes and colors that keeps getting trickier well he just saw it um do you have any questions about it chris does anyone else have any questions i mean it's it's a game it's a game about counting cats shapes and colors and it keeps getting trickier and i explained the rules i hope that people understand that um a bit about how it came to be um it started off with the wibble game where it that get keeps getting trickier because each person has another card in front of themself and then i really like that mechanism and it was actually some years ago and i was thinking oh you could count things and what if you're counting things okay i want a game about counting but let's try and and then it's just a really good catch-up mechanism that i yeah mix in with it um why do you stop at five is that just an arbitrary five seems like a good number that it's tricky but we kids can still count up to 15 generally it's up to 15 so realistically you might be counting up to 10 so it's not too tricky like six seems like oh that's a lot and forcing m it just seems like a good number also multiples of five are nice to remember for the human brain because like hey we've got up to ten tens like base ten we celebrate three hundred or 400 like we celebrate rounds numbers and five is count kind of scene as a round number um yeah ideas for variation so for the 2 p.m events what i did on sunday last weekend was we played one round as we just played it with about some five people and then we played second round where you flip over two cards at a time and it's exactly the same game but you need to count two more cards so um it just gets a bit faster and then after that i chose the two people with the highest scores to have a face to face head off against each other and then i played in elimination mode where if you make a mistake rather than losing everything you're out of the game and because there's only two of you that just means that the other person wins and so it's super quick like each of those games like the earlier games were maybe 10 minutes each but that game was like one minutes each and rather than saying first to three i might even say first to five at uk games expo especially if it's only two people but then there's real tension and then like oh no i really can't mess up but then if some person gets to fight then they win and yeah i quite like and if you are playing with someone sudden death from bad counting yes exactly josie and the other thing i would say is that if you're you keep playing with the same people regularly then play in matches of three maybe if one person wins two of them like if there's two of you do basically you try to flip in a fair way so don't flip like this so you see it first flip like that and obviously both people can count that's the two player variants with i actually prefer the three player plus which is a normal mode where one person is sitting out but two player variants can be really nice as long as you flip fairly and then play in matches or three play elimination mode and if one person wins two out of three games then they've just won if the other person wins the third and okay at least they manage to win one of the three but if it's knockouts if they win three out of three games then you change the what you're going for so you change your target number of cards so either increase it by one for the person who managed to win three out of three or reduce it by one for the person who unfortunately lost three out of three and that way you develop some sort of not even within one game but between games a balancing system that works for everyone um you know ideas for variations i think have gone through that um and thoughts on how it could be developed so currently and i only really realized this last weekend because obviously if you take it somewhere like i'm still really proud of it but in retrospect i think firstly i think that um it might have been nice to have like single cat single cats color single cat color single cat single cat color single cat color rather than having the two colors next to each other in the prearranged thing and but then have double cats underneath like five other cards and i almost feel like there should be slightly fewer double cats than there currently are because it is meant to be a super fast super quick game and i'm not saying that it should be changed massively but maybe like six cards or something like that so i would maybe make um yeah i'm trying to think because it's is done in one multiples or three because there's three possible doubles and there's three possible singles and so it might be as simple as saying okay three doubles turn them into three singles it would be very small tweaks but same and i'm not saying like again this is really really minor but i feel like i would like people to start off with a couple of simpler things and then when it's a double thing like whoa that's exciting and because the colors are so much easier because you count up half the cats and people do tend to be better at remembering okay i'm going to just remember i've got this many reds and this mini um bluish purple ones i don't even know what to call that color blurble um we got a great answer earlier i like black okay and um but yeah i think that i would change three maybe even six of them i think six might be too much but again like i would again this is like why it's like it this is not a first like prototype this is not like just something that i made up and then i got chris to do although there have been games where like not everything needs to be tested a hundred million times and when you actually show it to people who are considering buying it actually people who are new to games and you're just showing them games in the charity event because frankly the people at hereford were a lot more closer to the people that i imagined being the target audience than the people at uk games expo let alone the people who might come to a play test event but testing something like this at a play test event sure it's great but going to conventions and that's what this kind of allows me to do go to these places and at the end i only had them one copy left of the game at the end of the weekend so i judged like not out of a hundred i didn't take a hundred i think i took um i could actually tell you how many it took um i took um 15 copies so i mean it was my most popular game i want to say even more like more popular than anything else and i'm really happy with it but again there's just like wee things that could always be done like we think that's how he changed about wibble once i played it 100 times and something that they changed about fable after you know playing it for three years and then someone makes a suggestion as oh yeah actually that would be better so i think that's the key thing at least for me i'm always wanting to be open to these changes and i hope that i've expressed that in a way that doesn't make people think i'm selling them terrible things like they are good things but everything is read possible to be improved does that make sense okay um josie says that's going to be fun to demo let me know if you have any questions or anything about the game and if not then we have a special section today which is about choosing a winner i wish you could see chris's eyebrows we need a a number from one to twelve um would be i was going to say would you be able to um whatsapp made a list of um thingy names and but before that i'm going to see no then if i do that then it'll be confidential information i'm trying to work out how to show that information in a way that says oh could you put it in the stuff by best um like in a google document and then link me to that is that's okay is that something you could do in the next minute awesome thank you so much chris what would they uh with the twitter names yeah with all the twitter names just so that's anyone who's watching will be like yeah we're not just making this stuff up or doing it totally legit and to um josie wants to pick the number no you don't get to pick the number um i'll do it by some sort of wizzy wheel of fortune type thing um so just to show what's going on and the eldeck twitter account recently managed to get to 300 followers which is exciting and that was 300 totally organically and it's like it's a lot less than other things i don't have my own wheel of fortune no i don't but you can find a digital wheel of fortune how many numbers is it well wheel of fortune m choose 12 randomly we will find a number picker wheel okay and so what people had to do it was really simple they just had to retweet like it and follow the account and according to chris some of the people who were who liked it had not followed the account or maybe one of them would have been me i guess and he didn't include my name crow and i assumed the other person who liked it hadn't followed or something yeah that's the situation i think that for next time 333 i think we should definitely celebrate 333 when we get there and i think i would like that to be more of a hey pick um three foods and drinks that starts with these really common lectures so it'll be a simple question to answer but it'll be a quick email categorical and that might be a more fun thing to do and actually getting people commenting because when you do these retweets like follows what i noticed is there's a good number that's if you go to their twitter page they are just um doing yeah contests and that's literally all they do which kind of feels a bit yeah anyway so we are picking a number from one to twelve as you can see it goes one two three four five seven eight nine but we had 14. yeah yeah sorry another person i saw oh okay okay so we've got 11 potential winners okay so we'll see how this works come on nine says josie and can you actually send me yes so i just so people can see that it is totally legit um so we have put all the names of the contestants this is all public so someone else could work this out within a couple of minutes if they wanted and um yep hopefully my google doc there you go we've got gad about games qt games atomic automation drayer inc that's catherine dreyer nilla rear um avax max games for music code they've kind of been following random fate i think that's actually paula i know two of those three of those people and there's a couple that have games in the title so i assume they've got some interest and there's a couple that's i think we're just following because it's a contest so just so people say that it's still too legit now what we're going to do is we are going to spain and it is number [Music] oh even plays a little song that's quite cool and that was pickerwheel.com thank you so number four selected done so number four is dryer inc as chris has already congratulations to catherine dreyer and this is a person that i know i'm not so they have been on the show before they were on during that epic 25 hour streams that i did because you know their time zones a lot more amenable for the wee hours and they helped keep me awake in the wee hours and they are working on a couple of their own games and i will get in touch with them too or maybe you could get in touch with them just now to let them know that they've won congratulations catherine dreyer and to everyone else and thank you for answering and please i hope that you enjoyed the general twitter games that's for coming out and all that stuff so yeah well done to catherine dreer so for now that is the end so we've got question of the day question of the day is a little question before we go on our way question of the day which is when was the last time you spun a real wheel i mean just spinning a real wheel i mean i'm not talking about moving pedals and then that makes a wheel spin i mean talk about spinning a wheel directly like maybe you're cleaning your bike and then you spin it to get i think for me it would have been maybe around november which would have been or no december just before i moved up here i used the end of my oil i probably should oil my bike up again it's been quite a few months yeah that was the last time that i spun a wheel you know puts it on its back you know oiled it top spun it around it good fun even though it doesn't have the clark and clacky you know it's good fun spinning the wheel directly would you agree chris yeah if you spin it backwards though it does have the kind of clicky clicky though isn't that damaging no it's just uh it's supposed to be back okay cool maybe i'll try that next time and i guess it would stop faster if you're spinning it backwards or not yeah yeah maybe i'll try that just for a bit of fun the last time i did that was when i had to replace my uh fire when was that uh last year last year so when was it and you've not oil you should probably oil your bike soon if you've not soiled your bike and spun the wheel that's a good point thank you for that so we both want to spin our wheels and oil the wheels quite soon how about you and the last time that i spun a natural wheel of fortune i think was oh it might have been s in 2019 because there were multiple publishers with little wheels or fortunes and at the start of the convention going grounds on wednesday or tuesday just give it to we spin i mean they don't mind i mean as long as you say hello i mean it would be a bit rude if we just go and spin the wheel and then you know run away especially if they don't know you that would just be weird but if you say hello mind if i spin your wheel and then you spin it you know not gonna um josie spun a buddhist prayer wheel about two years ago huh i don't know buddhist prayer worlds i'm not familiar with them at all um so over to you what are you up to you can share about something if you want to is there anything you want to share i promise that i care something fun and frivolous something super serious something that you want to do something that you have to do i feel like um we are going to do a lot of this stuff that we typically do on thursday sending stuff out oh um chris there were a few people who it might have been two people who wanted to chase up orders let me um yeah talk you through those emails we'll need to spend a bit of time on that um well yeah post stuff it's always satisfying i mean there's an increasing number of people wanting stuff and i might have a conversation about things i'm going to try and make sure that i'm on top of uk games expo by the end of this week um but yeah doing a lot of recording hopefully with the wii phone camera we will be able to get some videos recorded firstly for everyone who's coming to help me at uk games expo and much shorter videos and more excited today just saying this is the way we play it and chris can pretend to be like from the point of view of someone who's just coming to learn and i can show you how i would teach this game and at the end any additional information that you might want to know um i'll try and do that for all the major games um and then i'll try and do five videos for the major company that was um pitching to last night so they need to be less than two minutes long potentially some editing but if it's like one take then that's fine and it gets everything ready um and i'm sure there's stuff that i'm forgetting but honestly like if i've got nothing else to do i would reach out to many many different reviewer people and media people because i've got like a big list and trend sorts out my preview stuff because yeah despite them saying yeah don't worry we can put the full names of your games in and don't worry once you submit something it will take like 48 hours to submit like i definitely did it like before i went to hereford like on the friday and it's been way more than 48 hours since friday and it's still not there they said 24 to 48 hours but um yes i'm going to chase them up say maybe the form isn't working maybe i just do you want me to just send you the information directly would this be better and yeah make sure that my games are up on the press preview list because that's super important that the press people know what my games are because otherwise no one will know that i'm making a game about stuffing balloons as a team without talking but it's a card game there are no actual balloons uh i think that might be the first um title that is more than one sentence because even the longest title in the world which i'm director told her of was kind of one incredibly run-on sentence that's lost 2 000 words but yes what are you up to chris is there anything else i've not mentioned that you are up to um within working at the hours and are you willing to share your evening plans with the world uh this evening i have no plans but tomorrow i'm going to see all day of brixley oh exciting yeah very amazing so um yeah josie says i am now going to look out for wheel spinning opportunities he's amazing and i'm going to see if any friends are able to play all the counting just accounting games the accounting games plural so is there more than one i mean i assume you mean just a game about counting cat shapes and colors that keeps getting trickier and um josie you've already played um the newest game so you already know all the rules to the games um chris i think you know all the rules to the games i will not make a video for the latest game which we don't have yet i don't think it's worth doing that just with business cards it doesn't it feels like it would be too confusing um yep it should have been singular but um no i'm excited by that um so recap and wrap up before we finish up so to recap and wrap up let me actually do a really quick explanation so you've got free free color let me get rid of this three shapes of cats um dancing cats bald up cats and lion cats two colors and each time you flip a card you are looking at the cards that was just revealed and counting how many of the cats here match up so that would be one that person takes it and they are the next judge they cannot count and so i would say one but next time now this person has to say um not only one but one two three because they have to keep counting what they've already collected if you get to five then you win if you make mistake you lose everything that is the game this is a game i'm proud of you can play on extreme elimination mode you can play two-player just make sure that you flip away from you and take turns to flip or maybe still the i'm not sure whether it makes more sense at that point to say take turns to flip or whoever slaps flips first i don't know um but yeah three players up to eight ish i've not tested enough at the top player account but i've definitely played it with eight and it works fine as long as everyone's able to reach and slap and what tells did we talk about we talked about spinning wheels we decided that drearing is the winner congratulations to catherine dreyer and yeah that was it i so if you want to check me out stuff by bed twitter instagram all that stuff and twitch stuffbybes.com discord tomorrow i am going to do a very quick show on my way to play testing saturday i've got tom truman an indie designer sunday parole another indie game designer monday pro a solo show i will um i will either be talking about uk games expo or a game that i feel i need to tell uk games expo people about or i will yeah i might start a new series i was thinking of doing a new series about ultimate mechanics on board game geek because there's like 100 something mechanics on and themes and settings on board geek and i thought it would be quite nice to just have hey let's look at this thing one at a time and let's kind of explore them and think about which is my favorite game do i like this have i used it myself and game design and what's the strengths what's the weaknesses although that would take me a bit of like half an hour of research and i am taking work taking time to do stuff about uk games expo so let's just assume when it's not me and someone else i am going to be talking about uk games expand just talking about some aspects of what i'm doing probably a quick show let's see i'm sure spread the word thank you everyone lots of love and um josie says i've played everything other than a few aldec games and your and the game of wearing a bladder scottish woman to talk about fostering no i've already said that you think of oh yeah we all know the ones that josie and i are talking about um so yes for now lots of love and bye bye bye bye this is goodbye so do do

2358 for Sanchez that is the best bet for the weekends parts of pitching matchups are concerned overall the Braves are hot they're the better team they will take two out of three in this series that's three here - another matchup of interest let's look at Milwaukee in Arizona Milwaukee right now is ice-cold down you can see here they are not trending very well lately ice-cold down and they have lost four of their last six although they are coming off a big win over the Braves Arizona is average at the moment and you can see that they have won for though i6 recently coming off a two-game losing streak our accuse indicator shows what well both teams are trending a little bit downward Arizona still has it was 15 the post 9h in that department if you look down here now at the volatility oscillator as far as the stability goes neither team is particularly stable just barely above zero so don't take too much consideration into their favorite underdog status there are other factors that would be more important for betting in this game these games see the weekend we go to the totals predictor over-under you look at Milwaukee's trending over and Arizona isn't games trending under so best to avoid the over/under here because they're trending on opposite sides of the line if you look at the pitching matchups Zack Greinke is the best bet for the Diamondbacks she's at post 2937 by the pitcher profit oscillator as compared to Adrian Houser who's going up against it at minus 222 Brandon Woodruff is the best bet for the Brewers on Sunday at plus 700 in general the Diamondbacks should probably win the series take them to win two games to one the Angels and the Mariners in AL West matchup you see the angels are burning hot at the moment winners a five out of the last six what can say about Seattle file says you're dead stands and that's about right losing five out of the last six you look at the Power Rankings indicator you will see a similar result here as you see that the Angels are plus 21 compared to this plus four for Seattle you go down through here the totals predictor over/under well let's see the best to do on this well you can see that the Angels are playing in games trending over the Mariners are playing in games training under so again it's probably best to avoid betting the over/under in this series volatility Mariners are the more stable of the teams so they're consistently perform a more consistent would perform according to their favorite underdog status even though she hours at home they're likely to be underdogs much of the weekend pick the A's to win the series actually pick the angel was acutely anals to win the series likely not sweep but we're not surprise me if they do anyway the Angels will win the series now let's take a look at one more matchup I want to take a look at and that is the mechs and the Giants nationally East versus nationally West well in the midst right now are burning hot you can see that they have won four out of there is six coming off a three-game winning streak the Giants are average up at the moment and they have won four in a row though including a couple blowouts in their a 19-2 to win over Colorado and eat the three win over Milwaukee so there have been played much better lately power Ricky's indicator shows what well you can see that San Francisco actually now you know the lower in the standings they are plus 13 compared to plus 10 over the Mets totals predictor overrun during this one well let's see this time you can bet your because if you notice the necks are playing in games trending over the Giants are playing in games trending well over to go for the over in this series pitching matchups well two of the three starters for the mess Noah syndergaard and Zack wheeler are profitable but only Tyler Beede on Friday for the Giants is profitable the worst bit of the whole weekend is Jeff Samardzija - three thousand eight hundred ninety nine provinces a so query did not go for him on Saturday over Jacob degrom in general the Mets are better even though the Giants have been playing better lately like to give the edge to match to win this series two games to one so again if you're not already a member please join you can join in all the fun you can see all these wonderful tools that will help you bet the game so enjoy the weekends games have a great week and we will see you next time | ZcodeSystem Free Picks for NFL, NHL, NBA, MLB | UC6EyWXUf19isJxwHrqWa_AA | 2019-07-17 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 1,720 | 9,038 |
o9ah8oR0O04 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o9ah8oR0O04 | Little Nightmares Complete Edition Review 2021 - Game plus DLC - Is it Worth buying? | developed by tarsier studios published by bandai namco entertainment in 2017 little nightmares hey this is chris at talent gaming welcome back to another video review little nightmares is a 2.5 d platformer puzzle game set in a creepy punishing world you play as six a hungry little girl who must escape the maw an iron vessel inhabited by monstrous and twisted beings despite the main characters being children this one is not for kids the complete edition includes five chapters and three additional dlc chapters which i will cover briefly after the review is complete little nightmares uses the unreal four engine which not only allows for fantastic looking games but is easy on the game requirements the game only really needs 4 gigs of ram and a modern dual core cpu to enjoy a gtx 460 or equivalent is required and make sure you have at least 10 gigs of free storage let's talk about some of the main aspects and areas of the game puzzles are the main attraction and little nightmares for the most part you'll be interacting with the environment in order to escape the maw while using your lighter as an aide in low light conditions or to light lanterns and candles you can climb swing run jump push pull and otherwise manipulate switches and levers and much more the majority of the puzzles are not particularly difficult to solve and are straightforward with a little bit of analytical thinking it does help that during your quest you can shift the camera around to see a little more of what's around you to help you find a monster or follow a power line to its source hint hint monsters consist of hideous and grotesque pig-looking humanoids gangly looking long-armed blind men leeches and one freaky ass gisha they all want to eat capture or kill you so to avoid capture at all costs during every chapter you will at a specific point fall ill to your hunger and need to eat before passing out these are some of the more morbid scenes of the game as what you will do in order to feed yourself will quite surprise you enjoy you'll get a real sense of scale in your playing of the little nightmares the character is small and the monsters appear huge and everything you interact with feels absolutely massive in the first chapter of the game you'll be moving around the ship mostly unimpeded and focused solely on the puzzles and getting acclimated to the environment once the first chapter is complete the gloves really come off you'll need to avoid the janitor with as long extended arms throughout offices bedrooms and library type settings you'll later find yourself in the midst of the kitchen where you find two very angry large ugly looking chefs preparing to feed the mass of beasts on board later in the dining hall you'll come face to face with some hungry monstrous animal looking folks who want nothing more to gorge themselves and will actively try to use you as an appetizer in the final chapter of the game you'll find yourself in the residence where the geisha the host resides this setting looks more like a cross between a series of dressing rooms and living spaces but tread lightly while they don't really impact the outcome of the game there are a few challenges and achievements to aim for to make things a little more interesting they can consist of breaking vases hugging gnomes and lighting lanterns and candles so keep an eye out for these items while you play let's get to the review graphical textures are reminiscent of something out of a tim burton movie a nightmare before christmas comes to mind with all its claim asian goodness animations are smooth and natural feeling the cut scenes are while there's no true cut scenes but the in-game stuff does go out of the player's control and looks as great as the rest of the game a few instances of clipping were noticed but are forgiveable in the grand scheme of things sound effects are pretty good and feel accurate for the game environment the little music that is present is quite good and feels like a cross between a children's lullaby and something out of a horror movie the atmosphere here is fantastic the background noises and ambience really help to put you in the middle of the story while there isn't much of a story per se what you do get is dropped into the middle of a living nightmare on the maw the game is filled with violence gore and some very obscure and disturbing imagery throughout the game you see evidence of children being kidnapped kept in cages and eaten controls can be a little awkward at times using the keyboard those using a controller may find things a little easier getting hung up and caught by creatures simply for getting stuck or plummeting to your death is something that happened to me a fair number of times the control mechanics aren't perfect the game is still extremely fun and entertaining and doesn't take too long to get situated the puzzles aren't overly challenging but they will make you think outside the box for answers as things aren't always exactly as they appear realistically you're looking at about an hour for each chapter of the game and the included three dlc in the complete edition so about eight hours in total for a single playthrough i don't think you'd play this one over and over again unless you want to show your friends what kind of cruel sadistic games you enjoy but the in-game challenges and achievements may make it worthwhile to give it a second go all in all i really enjoyed my time with little nightmares i literally laughed out loud i cringed in horror and screamed at my computer screen in anger this one will definitely get your heart pumping one way or another it's not a fast-paced game but sometimes a change of pace is more than welcome for the amount of play time you will get from it i'm not sure i would pay full price but when it's on a steam discount it really is a can't miss if you like solving puzzles survival horror want to change a pace or a bit of a sadist then you'll want to give little nightmares a chance i'm sure you'll enjoy it as promised here's a little preview of each of the three dlc chapters included in the complete edition the depths as the title suggests you'll find mostly water-based puzzles obstacles and monsters look to use the waters both in escape and as a solution to various puzzles avoid the granny the hideaway this one is where you really get to be friending the gnomes who together will help you solve the puzzles once you've made some tiny little friends they will become an invaluable part of your journey and last but not least the residence this is home to arguably the most difficult puzzles in the entire game while it's not entirely difficult in its own right the puzzles do require a fair bit of thought more than anything previous in the game it's quite interesting and a genuine challenge as always thanks for watching everyone don't forget to like comment and subscribe to let us know what you think this is chris from talent gaming signing out | Talon Gaming |

HFGlCDOUCWA | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HFGlCDOUCWA | Shaykh Claims Christians are BETTER Muslims (Unbelievable!) | save 10 with my code Bobby 10 on raw organic grass-fed and grass finished freeze dried organ Meats from grassland nutrition Link in the description box [Music] [Applause] all right guys welcome back to the channel if you're new my name is Bobby guys upon popular requests today we're gonna check out Sheikh Hassan Farhan El Maliki from quranic Islam who's going to discuss the topic do only Muslims go to heaven so this is of course a question of utmost importance to my viewers here because I know for a fact that not only Muslims watch this channel we have Christians we have Jews we have new ages Buddhists Hindus and what not of course is a very intriguing question to know if only Muslims go to heaven but moreover what I am truly interested in is the definition of a Muslim is a Muslim truly somebody that is born into an Islamic family and now by default by name he is a Muslim or are we going back to the real interpretation of the world somebody that is submitting his will to God and then we have to ask our question could there be a Muslim is submitter to God amongst the Jews amongst the Christians I personally do believe so however I'm very curious to hear what Sheikh Hassan Farhan and Maliki has to say with no further Ado let's have a look so this is the first time that we're reacting to an Arabic video with subtitles I'm gonna put the sound down a little bit and read out the subtitles for you Allah has clearly put Faith as a condition to enter Heaven not true it's not just faith says the Sheikh explain the idea first just to be clear in regards to the people of heaven and people of hell the debt must be based on statutory verses such as Allah Almighty saying Allah does not charge a soul except within its capacity and adhere to the fitra basic nature of Allah upon which he has created all people so when you find a simple elderly woman in Sri Lanka working her Farm who has never heard of Muhammad or Islam and seen nothing but evils bombings and disputes how do you expect her to believe in Islam and so Allah would only judge her by Universal values regarding Injustice dishonesty and such good deeds do not go unrewarded because Allah is ultimately Lord of All Mankind not just the Lord of Muslims and the Quran is For All Mankind let me finish there is universality in Islam and the Quran absolutely man and this is really the impression that I got whilst reading the Quran there is the religion El Islam if you will absolutely no doubts about it we see it how it is spreading now all across the globe however that being said there is a deep underlaying red threat if you ask me the question of who truly believes in God the question of who is really submitting his will to God and I'm of the firm conviction that we can find such people within any religion people that did not fall into shirk people that were good-hearted people that wanted to obey their law that intuitively knew that there is only one God Etc I really come to the conclusion that there is a clear distinction to be made between religious affiliation and who is truly a submitter of the lord of the worlds it emphasizes is the phrases the prophet is Mercy to Mankind and Allah is Lord of All Mankind this was hijacked by the politicians such as the umayyad Dynasty and others due to the discrimination and ignorance of the authorities and their jurists they made it so that Islam Allah the prophet and the Quran belong only to us when it's supposed to be Mercy to all fair enough man because the Quran itself addresses the Christians it does not say hey Christians stop being Christians no it simply corrects their beliefs it does not tell them now you will have to convert it's very interesting man thereupon there are different atheists the one who is arrogant doesn't do research and a denier who reviles religions sure most of them and the serious researcher who died before finding the answers and never heard anyone aren't they different Allah is the all-seer of his servants so an atheist researcher can possibly be in heaven is the question here of course why not says the Sheikh so according to you we may find Muslims Jews Christians and atheists in heaven of course the atheist won't be an atheist anymore when he is in heaven or hell yes which is why I mentioned Allah does not charge a soul except within its capacity the atheistic inquiries have become deeper and I've been approached by young men I may have insufficient knowledge in Natural Sciences but I emphasize to them other matters such as confirming invariables but speaking of invariables Allah says and whoever seeks a religion other than Islam it will never be accepted of him fair point let's see how he answers Allah does not forgive ascribing Partners or worship unto him foreign non-belief truly means one who knew but denied the truth is a cafe a non-believer now the people of Japan America and Europe I do not call them kafirs but people because the kafir must first know the truth not be ignorant of it then denies or covers it up absolutely correct a careful is somebody that denies God existence even though he knows that God exists the best example of a carefair would of course be iblies somebody that saw God first hand and then denied his existence that of course does not apply to somebody that never saw God or moreover than that didn't even hear the message of one God there are two meanings of kuffer in the Quran either denial or covering up and shunning signs of Allah but the ignorant is not careful but one of the people and is under Allah's will yes of course everything happens within God's will so therefore we do have to have atheists as well I think that perhaps there are more people in heaven from other nations than from the Muslims yeah we do not know there are more non-muslims in heaven than Muslims he asks I said perhaps it's a possibility because I find the goals of the Quran and what are they they don't know the goals of the Quran are monotheism to worship Allah Without Partners yes that's the main message for sure okay great these are the goals even the purpose for creating humans and even jinns and all creation is to worship here's a fair point excellent but hear me out Almighty said I did not create the Jinn and Mankind except to worship me all right all right but the next question comes up why do we worship Allah the man thinks deeper yeah I like it you won't find any Muslim who can answer but the answer is in the Quran I personally do have an answer for myself however I want to hear him out first all mankind worship your lord who created you and those before you why that you may become righteous righteousness is refraining from inflicting harm and aggression according to the Quran not the common definition of having a protection between Allah and his servant with these broad definitions they gave worship righteousness and piety all the same definition what is righteousness according to the Quran cooperate in righteousness and piety but do not cooperate in sin and aggression it's in the Quran as well when you examine the verses of righteousness you'll find them as a counter to aggression very true so I absolutely love what the Sheikh points out here going against the mainstream with this statement however yet again I'm simply going to say what I saw when I was reading the Quran no I'm not a scholar not a Christian one nor a Muslim one I'm simply saying what I saw when I read the Quran and I have to say that absolutely resonates with what this man here is claiming the prayer itself was not for God even though we are created to worship God Alone no God does not need our worship whatsoever he is self-sufficient he doesn't even need us therefore why would he need us to worship him to boost up his ego of course not God does not have an ego this is a thing of creation that we are battling with so God does not need our praise God does not need our worship however still we are created to worship him this worship is for us of course because it humbles us and makes us righteous yet again what is the point of praying five times per day and then you go out and commit adultery commit criminality commit all kinds of degeneracy what is the reason for prayer then this prayer should remind you of course of becoming righteous and a righteous person of course abstains from aggression if not needed there is always a time and place for everything of course if we have to go to war you have to be vicious you have to be a killing machine no doubts about it there you will need aggression but in your daily life you should Aspire of course to become just you've mentioned positive values regarding aggression and Injustice but I'm talking about the one issue of Faith monotheism and polytheism what is polytheism you'll find that we might be more polytheistic than they are I absolutely love the point that he makes here let's think about this rationally let's think about this logically if we look at certain Muslims no of course not all Muslims just certain Muslims hear me out certain Muslims worship Prophet Muhammad how can that be you will say that is not true worship belongs to God Alone absolutely on paper this is what it says on paper it claims that you should only worship God and Muslims some tell themselves that they worship God alone but the questions truly do they if you look at their behavior I talked to a few Muslims back in the day when Jesus was mentioned they didn't say peace be upon Him however when it came down to Muhammad they couldn't get enough of him of his stories consistently repeating how great prophet Muhammad was in indirectly worshiping Muhammad yet again guys I know that people do not want to hear this but we have to be rational and logical about things and atheist does not believe in the principles of worship think about it logically man an atheist does not believe that worshiping even is a real thing do you understand they believe in pure materialism therefore worship is just an exercise for them it's not even real however indirectly of course they worship science and their politicians and their Superstars and what's not don't you understand even a person that does not believe in worship worships and this is why the Sheikh has a great Point here even Muslims that yes on paper do understand that worship is only to God Alone can worship other things maybe prophets maybe money do you understand how many Muslims yet again I met in Germany that were a dick to money addicted to gambling addicted to and whatnot all of those things become our top priority and if they become our top priority they become Our God indirectly don't you understand therefore we worship those things yet again and the Muslim quote unquote yet again is not free of that sin either it's not enough to be a Muslim on paper we really have to submit our will to God polytheism is not just about worshiping Idols amen exactly but also ascribing Partners to Allah such as rabbis priests and we obeyed our masters and our dignitaries and they led us astray polytheism is a big issue do you think it is so simple as for the goals yes there is the goal of worship but above it is the goal of righteousness which is refraining from aggression so I don't necessarily agree here that the goal of righteousness is higher than the goal of worship I would rather rephrase it and say the goal is worship but the goal of worship is righteousness however yes he mentioned here do you really think that shirk is so simple look around you man we are living in paganism we are living in polytheism how so because people worship their desires it does not matter for God what you call it those people back in the day they worshiped Sticks and Stones certain statues certain figures so what it's worthless it's worthless to God as well it has no power of course man May made things and the same applies to this day and age just look around you men made things oh look at my Ferrari look at my Lamborghini look at my chicks so now you don't call it Gods but you behave like they are you upload pictures of your cast to Instagram look at them look at them you're pointing away from God this is shirk therefore prayer keeps one from immorality and wrongdoing that's the purpose is there another goal after righteousness yes Allah mentioned gratitude be Pious righteous to Allah that you may be thankful exactly foreign the Quran does not say be thankful that you may be righteous or be righteous that you may worship the Quran is a rigorous system this is the quranic culture and its goals but the issue of goals righteousness and gratitude are not that big compared to no no brother brother hear me out the entire goal of worship is righteousness in the Quran all right but now I'm asking you a specific question Allah does not forgive ascribing partners of worship unto him so he may forgive all sins except poorly theism but now you're telling me that an atheist or poorly theist the verse says Allah does not forgive ascribing partners of worship unto him please note the verb ascribing it did not say the noun poorly theist fair enough it is the amount of polytheism that Allah does not forgive but limitation wise religions other than Islam will not be accepted and you tell me atheists can go to heaven what is Islam in the Quran according to the Quran Islam is made up of three stages dedication to the truth as they may Believe it or renounce it you can know it by the opposites the second stage is submitting to the truth the third stage is the Good Deeds that reflect from the submission if you examine this kind of Islam submission do you find it in other nations or in US dedication to information submitting to True information and the Good Deeds that stem from it this is the quranic meaning of Islam all right guys and this is it for today's video absolutely amazing watch unfortunately it cuts off here I wished that it would have continued that being said as you heard during the video I agree with most things that the Sheikh mentions here this is not about reforming Islam this is not about a new understanding of Islam quite the opposite I would make the claim and yet again I'm not a scholar that the Quran is so deep that we as people as flawed mere human beings will continuously learn from the Quran you see it here on YouTube a new video about science in the Quran a new video about miracles of the Quran a new video about mysterious numbers within the Quran and what's not new understanding is arising almost on a daily basis and this is the absolute Majestic Beauty of the Quran of course that we cannot say hey we understood it completely even the Quran itself elf claims there are certain verses that we cannot understand but only Allah knows their meaning therefore this is an exploration that never ends and of course by reading the Quran reflecting upon it it is not to my surprise that this Sheikh came to the conclusion that hey it's not only about blindly worshiping go figure it is not only about being a Muslim by label what does it mean to submit yourself to God he beautifully displayed here that it is about truly submitting your will and then becoming righteous Pious and doing God's will if you look at Mount autos for example I visited those monks now you may think about them what you will you may say God didn't tell them to go there why do they do this why don't they have a family etc etc you name it but then you look into the Quran and the Quran says as well that amongst the Christians you have humble people the monks the monastic lifestyle is praised as well within the Quran it is acknowledged and yes those monks dedicate their life to God now you will say yeah but they believe in the Trinity that is their cultural upbringing that is their cultural understanding but nevertheless those monks stay away from all kinds of degeneracy that we are inflicting Upon Us in this modern day and age they live in seclusion and I'm gonna sit here and say yeah well but they are not Muslim by label this wouldn't make any sense whatsoever if you ask me personally I personally really do not care for the religious label I care about if you are a good righteous person as the Sheikh just said genuinely who cares that you're born into an Islamic family man I said it before in Germany I saw so many Muslims involved in degeneracy you wouldn't believe it man the violence the aggression and what not don't you understand this this cannot bring you to heaven just because you are Muslim by default all right guys but this is it for today's video absolutely amazing watch please let me know in the comment section what you think about this and as always if you like the video leave the thumbs up if you haven't subscribed

rGF4xw0UBuU | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rGF4xw0UBuU | thank you akira toriyama. | so if you've literally been living under a rock for the past 48 hours there's no surprise that the creator of Dragon Ball uh Cur Toriyama had unfortunately uh passed away and I was shocked I mean I had got my tears out the night I found out um and it was a complete like the world froze you know what I mean like Aur Toriyama you know is wasn't just a manga artist he wasn't just you know this guy who just made these you know these Japanese cartoons like this man is responsible for a lot of things you know that you see in anime now in the industry like if you if without Dragon Ball you wouldn't have bleach you wouldn't have Naruto you wouldn't have one piece you wouldn't have you know all of your favorite anime um you know coming out right now if it wasn't for Dragon Ball Z because one way or another their designs or their character arcs are inspired by Dragon Ball or Dragon Ball Z you know of course this man was responsible for doing Dragon Quest which I never played before I would love to get into Dragon Quest one of these days and obviously he was doing the character designs for Chrono Trigger which I actually played a little bit of I never finished the game but I know it's like one of the best jrpgs of all time and I would love to play that game but he's been such responsible for a lot of you know of your beloved um video games and of course your shows as well too so instead of just you know giving you guys like a huge like of like this man's like you know life because you can go online and just find out what happened to him um I just wanted to share my Fondest Memories of you know Dragon Ball uh the Dragon Ball franchise as a whole I mean I'm going to talk a little bit about carel trigger really cuz I had a little bit of that experience with that game but mostly um my experience with Dragon Ball as a whole um it's no secret um if you guys been with me close friends loved ones whatever I am a huge anime fan and the first anime that I ever watched obviously was you know was po Pokemon you know this before I didn't even know this was [ __ ] that was an anime or whatever but you know um it was either Beyblade it was Pokemon Yu-Gi-Oh uh Naruto but mostly Dragon Ball Z I watched the [ __ ] out of especially as a kid it used to be come on on tunami uh used to

Saga the San Saga like hell even like you know stuff from Dragon Ball and even Dragon Ball GT which actually I watched a little bit of I know a lot of people don't like GT because actually I don't

Dragon Ball Z would literally just be on the screen or you know late nights you know of course you know I supposed to be in bed you know I'll sneak around watch a little bit of Dragon Ball Z here and there or whatever you watch the movies especially when I was in Middle School and you know even when we have to go to church cuz you know when I was a 7th Day Adventist so like on Saturdays I had to go to church on the in the mornings I would literally it would literally be like the the Frieza Saga or The namk Saga like just showing on my screen all the time and like it just used to be so fun seeing Gohan and Krillin and and dende like just just travel around just trying to find the dragon balls while you know they're onest while go Chas chased with Vegeta like and Doria and you know it was so crazy like just watching that as a kid like the energy like just on the screen when you ever just saw Dragon Ball Z was just frenetic it was just like all inspiring it was saw was so like like H like you just couldn't like get your eyes glued off of it and you know know me and my sister were like huge fans of it as well too like I remember um I actually was starting to get it into drawing because I know I was a very creative kid and I used to actually have like a a sheet of paper like a trace of paper and I used to literally like draw like you know like go you know Google or whatever I would literally like find Goku pictures or like Gohan pictures and I would literally Trace like the character models because I really wanted to learn how to draw like him like his character designs always kind of evoke this kind of adventurous Whimsical nature like you always knew when you saw trunks when you saw Gohan when you saw Piccolo or you saw like the earlier designs of Dragon Ball you knew something [ __ ] was about to happen like his designs and his style was always clean even when they did you know the the Android Saga like their designs are very unique like you don't really see a lot of like designs especially nowadays you know replicate stuff like that of course you have animated stuff like that but that was like this laid the groundwork for it like even you know when we got got into like the the newer movies the character design still you know remained fresh it still remained new it still remained like you know we were just seeing these characters for the first time and it was just an awesome experience to just experience that [ __ ] as a kid like you couldn't tell me like your nephew or your son your even your daughter or your nieces did not at least did the Kamehameha at least one time I don't care how old you were I don't care if you were 9 10 I don't care if you were a teenager [ __ ] even some adults you did the KEH hameha at least one time or shoot if you've been on the internet for a long time you know you at least went Super Saiyan at least one time you thought man if I you know gathered my hands up in the in the sky like when Goku was you know fighting Vegeta or Frieza or you know even cell not even cell K Spirit mom with cell it was more so with uh kidoo you put your hands up like a Goku take my energy and you know you you when Goku turned into a Super Saiyan 3 you like just along with him and I mean shoot you know you see Ju say jayen I mean come on now this man literally like tried to transform on in camera and like I I'm not going to lie like I used to try to do that [ __ ] too cuz like Goku was like a father figure to a lot of us you know what I'm saying Hell even Piccolo too he was the dad that stepped up type [ __ ] and you know even though Goku is like a very basic character like by Design and hell even you know by personality um his character Arc like I love the fact that he's just like this basic like just one note linear character cuz like you know when you have a story like Dragon Ball Z where he always comes through to just save the world I mean how complex do you need to make a character like Goku like I mean he's strong he has a good you know head on his shoulders he wants to protect his family and his friends you don't really need to make Goku like this crazy super like super you know philosophical character like you know he's strong he trains and he's ready to kick it some ass just like he always does and you know just seeing Goku on the screen you know when he first touched down the Namek oh my God I was like man he about to destroy the gin Force he about to you know we going to take the dragon balls we going to wish back all the friends that you know died on on earth when he was fighting you know the Saints and whatever whatever and just seeing Goku just on screen was just so exciting because you just know [ __ ] was just going to go down and you just know like he was going to be in there for a good time there was going to be a lot of powerups there was going to be a lot of trials and tribulations there going to be a lot of like hard times you think oh our characters already a pinch you don't think they're going to win but you know after a while you you know of course plot comes in and they're going to like you know show you know uh sh uh take the stage take the show and of course they're going to you know come out big and Grand as ever and you know that's is the [ __ ] that I you know you really used to grow up you know watching you know what I'm saying like he taught us never to give up even when Goku was just like man like I don't think I'm going to win type thing like even against Frieza cuz Frieza was always like hyped up to be like this big bad guy like he blew up fre like Vegeta's Planet you know annihilating the whole Saiyan race and you know they they propped up Frieza to be like the crazy [ __ ] like and you know he did not disappoint like even by Design I always thought Frieza was a girl I'm not even going to lie hey hey me and you both all right I thought he was a girl too but then after you know I heard him I was like oh oh okay he like that okay got you you still felt the the the the freaking Terror of Frieza like even when when he got to his second form and his third form and even his final form like he could just feel like the evilness his voice his demeanor the way he carried himself like he repres presents evil and then when Goku just came through and just even like try to like fight Frieza it's like oh even like he thinks that he can't win because he's not even fighing at 50% I'm like yo all right bro I don't even think I'm going to win it makes me feel like yo like what's about to happen and it just kind of always like you know kept me on my toes even though you kind of always had a feeling what was going to happen still like no one could have predicted that you know Frieza was going to kill uh Piccolo no one was going to you know not really Piccolo just kind of random conscious but no one was going to predict that you know Frieza killed uh Krillin but then when Goku like tapped in into this unwielding potential like this this power seeping inside of him because he was a good hearted counted type of person he turned into a Super Saiyan like you know he was just like I'm tired I'm not going to let you get away with this and he just like tilt his head cocked his head back a couple times and you said felt the lightning you felt the music swelling up you know shout out to Bruce fuler cuz that was the type of music that I really listen to Back in the Day man and you really felt the intensity in when Goku just yelled out this this monstrous roar like that bro you just feel like oh my God bro he actually did it he became the Super Saiyan Legends like it man the Frieza Saga I don't care it's one of the best sagas of not only just that like of Dragon Ball like the franchise of Dragon Ball but just like in anime period like you canot tell me you cannot replicate Arc that just incap Inc capitalizes how what the Frieza Saga was doing like Frieza was literally like just hyp the from the beginning of the D namic to now it's like even like even before with the sa sag it's like man like it was just a ride to just go through man I will never forget like my favorite Dragon Ball Z moments I know I'm hopping around but I'm just going to talk about really about the show a lot is uh when trunks came through for the first time like just seeing him with this you know capsule Corporation purple jacket you know he got the boots on and he had that sword and he's just like yo what who is this [ __ ] like why is Frieza back like who is this [ __ ] King Cole he's that's his daddy whoa and then you just see this [ __ ] he can turn into a Super Saiyan too I'm like oh no it's clip and when he was slicing and dicing one more and then like he stopped and then he put the sword right back into the [ __ ] and everybody fell off I was like oh my God he about to see bro it's lit it's actually clipped and then like when you turned into a super Sai I was like oh [ __ ] things about to go down like there's another Super Saiyan and then like of course you know like when he dis you know when Frieza was trying to like attack him he disappeared and of course everybody did the the burning attack oh my God and then he like jumped up and then freaking slashed Frieza in half oh my God and then just like oh man like trunks's introduction in Dragon Ball Z is one of the badasses introductions like in fiction period bro you could not tell me like you did not get any shills on seeing trunks on screen like you he just admitted badass of course you know they probably nuked him a little bit like in super or whatever but still even at that time like you just always felt like they was like like there was like this Mystique around this boy like cuz who where did he come from who who is trunks like why why is he here like why who how how does he have like you know around the same power as like zires you know what I mean so yeah like that was always cool of course um you know uh Gohan turning Super Saiyan 2 like that's my personality trait I related a lot to Gohan uh because he was like the sweet kid that just doesn't like to fight he always got you know and speaking of Gohan that's actually one also another one of my favorites uh not only just turn him turning Super Saiyan 2 but him fighting Frieza in the namic soo especially Frieza in his second state and he was just like yo like I'm not going to let you hurt my friends he just like smacked Frieza and just punched him in the stomach punched him in the stomach and he just like kept on throwing barges of key blast like I was like oh my God just seeing Gohan like at his like his most Peak is just it's it still gives me chills to day and of course like when he turned super saiyyan 2o like it just was so poetic because of just the type of person he is he does much to fight like when he always he's a reactionary type of character like where you know Goku is more the action character um Gohan is just like you know he wants to just spend time with his Dad he just wants to you know chill but it's just like he doesn't even want this life that his dad is perpetuating on him so when he gets pinched into a corner where it's like oh the the his answer is anger and then when he sees like you know um even like the people around him like getting hurt he wants to Leach his power he doesn't know how to do it yet Andrew 16 just like yo Let It Go like like I know that you want to you know you don't like fighting but if you're fighting for the right cause like you know there's nothing wrong with being upset at all D D D D and then of course just you know you know uh sell stuffing on his head and then leashing his power like and then the bird like obviously symbolizing what you know of Android 16 but then also just him as a you know uh go on as an individual he's like sweet as a bird like that's like the you know the bird that you know that got locked out of his C you know that's locked that not locked in his cage but you know he's he's out of his cage and it was just so amazing to just see that on stage and see that on you know screen and just seeing him yell was just so amazing and just obviously sing off the cell Juniors and cell fighting off cell was just so amazing the the the Father's son Kamehameha man just a beautiful beautiful beautiful moment um it always gets me emotional all the time when Goku is like you know like you know he's he sacrificed himself off obviously you know for Gohan and you know all the Earth and everybody else and you know just seeing him still talk to Gohan even in other world just you know tele telepathically through Gohan like yo like I still believe in you like you're the strongest warrior in the universe like you're even stronger than me and it's just like just seeing that Father and Son Dynamic even in the other world this was so beautiful even when you think that the world was about to end Goku still like being a f you know what I'm saying it's just like oh now the Goku want to step up whatever whatever we ain't going to talk about you know character flaws right now just talking about Great Moments I always thought that was always an endearing moment and obviously you know we got to talk about the Goku versus Vegeta fight I mean literally one of the best fights of anime period I do not care the kaio-ken versus Kaio Ken Kamehameha versus you know the G gun was just amazing like the the fight like the choreography like everything man about the animation like ahead of his time honestly even the stances like you know the legendary stances with Goku and you know stances with with Vegeta like is is is like you just never like bro like go like you have no idea like Dragon Ball Z is just not just a manga it's not just an anime show like this [ __ ] is so like revolutionized like you see battle rappers even rappers you know still like you know dropping anime bars you know like cuz even if you don't watch anime like you know about Dragon Ball Z like hell if my grandmother or even certain people that don't watch anime know who Goku is like you literally like you dropped something very very special cuz like like how does you know people like like just know about the character Goku or is so familiar with his design um even like you know in pop culture like you see freaking soccer players you know basketball players football players doing the Fusion dance or whatever even parades you know of this man Goku like on you know on high display whenever you just like you know see him you know um shoot even I think there was like a Mexican thing that got seats fire because of like the you know tribute to cor Toriyama um you know he's referenced in you know again like I said Sports you know music um he's like Dragon Ball Z is like it's not just like it's a pop culture phenomenon like you know all the kids you know just wiring the Dragon Ball Z t-shirts you know uh kids wanted to get their hair like go go like Goku you know styling it up you know dying it so it could be like a Super Saiyan or whatever like so many other great things man it's just like Dragon Ball Z was really that [ __ ] series that really popular a lot of [ __ ] a lot of [ __ ] even like your favorite cartoons like you know kidne con kidne store um I can just name a few uh Billy and Mandy um damn uh the adventure The Amazing World of Gumball like there's so many like super saiyan type of references that is laced around pop culture hell even Sonic with the 7 chaos seals him collecting all the to become supersonic like come on now like like it's around everywhere it's not just with gaming it's not just like I mean it's with gaming as well too but it's just like with everywhere everywhere like this man's influence you could not Escape it like at all and I I'm just really blessed to just kind of like be in a space where like Dragon Ball was really like a part of my childhood like just playing the games freaking Super Sonic Warriors 2 one of my favorite DS games of all time and just you know playing it with my friends was always like a great ride Raging Blast 2 playing it on a PS3 was always a ride as well to like spending hours countless amount of hours in time on that game whenever our friends play through we just be like grinding that out playing the story mode trying to unlock characters and you know playing music at the in you know in the background whether it was like you know uh uh what's it called um Lincoln Park or even just you know listening to like Kanye or like Jay-Z or like niik like you know just like the old school like you know like that time period when it was like really making like their Peak music ever like I will never forget those moments just having ra and Blast 2 in the background and just coming home from school just rewatching episodes you know whenever I just got into a depressed movie [ __ ] pop up Dragon Ball Z I'll rewatch the movies too [ __ ] like I would do you know what I'm saying it doesn't matter like Broly come on now like everybody like I thought Broly all those really dumb of how he got his power because Goku cried for years and then he got mad that's why he says kagara uh okay but like his design the way he was beating the like the the the the Z Warriors ass I'm like yo this [ __ ] is crazy like oh man like you can't you can't even lie you can't even lie that [ __ ] was fire when I first saw like just super saiyan Legendary Super Saiyan BR freaking we got to talk about Ultra Instinct man I mean shoot when that [ __ ] happened the music is like that [ __ ] is like it's it was like this series second win or even this third win if I'm going to be honest like God damn like that design is just just so amazing to Goku and just the way he attained it I didn't really watch a lot about a super but just seeing that was super amazing to me and I I enjoyed every single moment of it uh even playing like Dragon Ball Xenoverse as well too I I used to play a lot of Dragon Ball Xenoverse like back in like high school and just you know the you know scrolling through the character menus like listening to the music and you know seeing all like you know the references from like you know just the characters from the S Saga to the all the way to boo Saga and you know even GT like with Mega Shenron it was just always like a sight to see all these characters like all in one Bunch like even Fighters I love Fighters so much I mean I played a lot of it you know back in like you know back when I was like in college and [ __ ] is it you know Fighters is such a fun game 2D game you know that we haven't gotten since like buai 10 ten kaichi I mean we've had other like 2D you know uh Dragon Ball Z games but like not like Fighters I feel like Fighters has his own flare has his own energy to it that I really really enjoyed and you know speaking of Bill think kaichi come on now like though that game is one of the goest like anime just fighting games period And the fact that we're getting a new like you know buddai 10 kaichi game very soon is like really really exciting like um and I'm I just can't wait to like you know see the the future of like Dragon Ball Z fighting games and of course you know we got to talk about fut uh super you know I really enjoyed you know uh seeing a couple of like you know the the movies you know a resurrection f or you know the Battle of Gods you know when Goku's like I will never let you destroy my world I just see him scream like that like was just super awesome to me um goddamn uh just freaking like him fighting beerus of course Goku going Super Saiyan God to going against golden Frieza was really awesome uh black Goku like when he went Super Saiyan Ros was awesome as well too just uh so many great moments man from Super of course not my favorite out of like you know the um out of the the franchise but I really did enjoy the series I think it had a lot of good moments you know just you know I would say you know I wish it was a little more consistent of course you know you had like the tournament Arc or whatever but you know either way I think you know super was still a pretty good and decent watch if they were going to revitalize you know the series in some way but how I grew up with Dragon Ball Z of course not only just tunami and cartoon nwor but it was also Dragon Ball Z Kai and I love Kai so much I mean that was the way to see Dragon Ball Z at the time and that and also team fourstar like I freaking love team fourstar so much the parody that they would make U when I was like you know 10 11 12 years old I remember literally when they were like wrapping up the Frieza Ark like that [ __ ] was awesome and Sho a lot of people when they actually you know they watch some people you know first introduction to Dragon Ball Z was Team Four Star so it's just like they made my child out cuz I I watched the series so much it was like man I knew these characters and just how they kind of turn you know made their spin around the characters and like the overall story and like like the jokes about the muffin button and making Goku like so dense but like so funny at the same time making Gohan like this smart ass and you know making Krillin like of course you know it was just like a nice little turn of like how they you know uh how they view the characters and like you know you you always saw them you always like oh man like I'm always going to be in for like a great time and uh like I love team for stff same thing was you know uh uh even like I said the the battle raps there's so many like you know battle raps with like you know um with Goku and like Vegeta and like you know all these little like U makeup matches um I can't remember what the matches are called but you know you have like Goku versus like Naruto or this that this character versus that character like you know just making up all these charact like you know these uh these madeup battles and just seeing like which you know anime character would win against this anime character all the discussions of like oh like who's stronger Goku or Veta D D D D like just the anime discussions I would have in high school and middle school would always be memorable to me and um you know even this uh RDC world one just you know all the the skits that they did centered like you know around Dragon Ball Z whether it was like a for minute when they did the burning attack or turning super saiyan or whatever like just Dragon Ball Z is just such an amazing series you know it's obviously it's the Godfather of all anime again you wouldn't have your favorite favorites right now if it wasn't for Air toriyama's Design his story the way he wrote his stories the way he wrote his characters the design the music orchestrated the the the overall animation the just excitement that you always just saw when you were seeing Goku versus Vegeta or Frieza or cell or even you know Majin Buu like even you know when the series has his low points you know you always you know grew up in some form of Dragon Ball Z I don't care if it was the original Dragon Ball Z or gt or super or whatever you know game that got you into it or even what like even if it was the soundtrack or even if it like a rap battle or even like a a stupid like you know who was going to win type of B like those type of YouTube videos or even like a anime music video you know Dragon Ball Z was everywhere and you could not Escape its uh you know influence and I'm just really happy to have you know growing up with the series and you know being 24 you know I can probably say that you know this series saved my life you know what I mean I mean if it was you know I I even like rewatch you know Dragon Ball Zai every now and then and you know I always like you know tune back to the the the soundtrack I love Android 16 soundtrack I love like when Vegeta went to Super Saiyan for the first time because he was struggling for the longest and I think veget is one of my favorite characters you know of anime period you know like he was just struggling so much like internally with him you know settling down having a kid and having you know a wife and you know he didn't really know how to settle into the Earth realm and then even his sacrifice oh my god dude how can I forget his sacrifice easily one of the best moments of Dragon Ball Z period like I feel like the boo Sagle was just for Vegeta like period um and just you know it's go start fighting you know Kid Buu and just you know having like that final uh Spirit Bomb was just a sight to see was always a sight to see so uh just to conclude cuz I'm kind of going all over the place Dragon Ball Z and just Dragon Ball in general will always have a special place in a lot of you know uh a lot of people's hearts especially black kids who look like me especially a lot of just people who just you know never really had anybody around um even if you you were in a really bad place in Life or you wasn't a really great place at life you know Dragon Ball Z always you know left you happy at the end and always left you motivated to just you know do something with your life and to just never you know give into the societal pressures and Norms like it was always like a an escape from like just the harsh realities of of the world and you know if you just turn on tunami if you turn on Cartoon Network or you turn on whatever like it just escapes your mind for a little a little bit you get to wander you just to have your your imagination run wild and you go you got to thank a curry Toriyama for Paving the way for a lot of marle artists and a lot of Japanese animators and just a lot of you know storytellers and in in general as well too his presence will always be on this Earth and you know although we are really sad that he is gone because he had a lot of projects and stuff that he was working while he was alive I couldn't be any more happy that he left uh such a wonderful series such as Dragon Ball onto this Earth and of course you know uh you know Coro trigger as well too which I'm gonna again definitely into that I played a little bit of Chrono Trigger and like I could tell like there was a lot of heart that guy went into that game and I wish I finished it but you know the man had such a wonderful vision for animation and I don't think it could really be unrivaled so to end this video um you know appreciate y'all manga artists appreciate y'all uh y'all creators while they are still alive you know we had lost the um the creator of Gus um not Gus um berserk a few years back and uh also the creator of Yu-Gi-Oh a few years back as well too so you know whether it's Oda or Masashi Kishimoto or the creator of bleach or Pokemon or whatever you know got you into anime at first cherish them while they're still alive because you just never know what they're going through um you know behind the scenes um and I am just grateful that Dragon Ball Z next to Naruto uh did so much for my childhood saved my life countless amount of times and that uh you know connected me to a web of friends memories that I will never forget so thank you a koriyama for all the years for all the games for all the shows you will never ever be forgotten and your legacy and your impact will always always be remembered so thank you so much for everything rest in peace and that's my experience in my memories with dragon ball and uh the overall franchise so yeah | MYSTICWOLF | UCpa7kt8ZDmwaWX0wImh8b_Q |

qzl-ar51xTs | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qzl-ar51xTs | 7. JHANA - Attaining Higher States of Citta (consciousness) | things this week we thought look at how these states of chitta are attained in particular how the higher states of Chitra are attained using the practice of Samata meditation and certain objects which are suitable for this practice so the word Samadhi or summit er is important the other word which is important if the word jhana the Sanskrit word is Diana it has two meanings the first is to contemplate a particular object and to examine its characteristics closely and the second is to eliminate hindrances not one meaning of the Jama is to burn it burns away defilements in the mind so to attain what we call jhana jitters we have to practice according to Samata meditation summit above Anna and to do this if it's being undertaken by a very serious committed meditator first of all the meditation object has to match the character of the meditator and we recognize six different kinds of character first three are described by terms I think we already familiar with the first one is somebody who is lustful or greedy or passionate Polly buddies raga or lova the second type is hateful or angry that's dosa and the third type is deluded or ignorant that is MOA the next three have some qualities in common with the first three so number four is the faithful character or sada number five is the intellectual or intelligent character Budi and number six is the agitated speculative or pondering character vitarka and these kinds of character can be assessed by a meditation teacher watching how the pupil conducts his daily activities like how he dresses how he eats how he sleeps sweeps the floor just mundane activities but the way we perform these actions can reveal the kind of character we have I would emphasize that these characters are not judgemental we're not saying that one character is better or worse than another but the both the lustful and the faithful types have in common a favorable attitude towards the object one is unwholesome and one is wholesome both of these are gentle polite clean neat tidy both are fond of luxury they prefer sweet aromatic and tender food but the the lustful character is attached to sense pleasures is cunning proud and greedy whereas the faithful character is truthful honest and generous the second pair are the hateful and the intellectual types they both turn away from an object in an unwholesome way but the intelligent type does so through the discovery of genuine faults both these types are crude unbecoming untidy both like sour salty bitter strong tasting food they do not like unpleasant sights and sounds they can react with abusive words or hatred and violence but the hating character shows grudges resentment and the jealousy slander pride whereas the intellectual type is free from grudges and jealousy he's willing to take advice and likes doing good deeds then the third pair the deluded and the speculative temperaments the deluded character vacillates due to superficial understanding whereas the speculative type is due to empty speculation so the deluded character is forgetful confused cannot distinguish right from wrong is incapable of making judgments he follows the opinion of others he's inclined to sloth and torpor whereas the speculative type is also following the opinion of others but is lazy wastes his time and engages in useless chatter it is important that the object for meditation should be suited to the character or the ability of the meditator there's a very well-known story concerning two brothers called pant Iike maha pant occur big vantika and tulip antica little pant occur ma hepatica had already ordained as a Buddhist monk and then later his younger brother true LaPenta wanted to do so as well now to repent occur I had a hard time he practiced for about three months and showed himself to be unable to remember anything and so his elder brother told him I think you better go home to another because you're not making a good effort this monastic life and so Rob sadly his younger brother started to pack up and get ready to leave when the Buddha saw him and said what is going on and chulip antica explained that he had not been able to make a success of monastic life and was therefore returning to lay life and the Buddha said to him can you remember to repeat just one simple phrase Rajah Herriman Rajjo Haruna which means defilements go away and should reduce it yes okay I will try to remember that and so that was his practice now the Buddha had realized that in a previous life he had been a king and he had developed the habit of wiping his face clean with a cloth and he used to say defilements go away defilements go away and so when he continued with this practice he did in fact become enlightened all the Buddhist monks except for true Romantica were invited one day to go to a meal by a supporter and when they got there Buddha said where's where's tulip antica oh we left him behind in the vihara because he's not very good so the Buddha said okay send somebody to call him a man sent to find to Atlantica and when he came back he was asked did you find who'll Avantika well I saw a thousand tool appendages and of course by this stage Tula panting had become an enlightened being and around and it also developed a special power by which he was able to multiply the form of his body so people could see many different forms so that's just an example of how it is very useful if the object for meditation is matched to the temperament of the meditator in the case of the Buddha of course he was the supreme teacher he could always identify the state of the mind of anybody he was talking to and he do therefore could give him a suitable object or suitable teaching that is something which was a very special characteristic of the Buddhist but the 40 objects of meditation they are subdivided first of all into ten what are called Katsina cocina is a device meaning an entirety or a whole or complete or a totality and this device can be made from one of the four elements earth water fire air it can also be colored blue yellow red or white and the other two objects which can be used or space and light but in the case of say the earth Katsina a disc is made and positioned a few feet in front of the meditator and he just looked steadily at the disc and repeat silently earth tries to maintain his concentration on that object what happens after that becomes in the moment then there are ten objects of impurity the word is our super these are ten stages of decay in a corpse at that time in India it was apparently not that difficult to see or find corpses maybe being taken to the channel ground for cremation and of course because of the the higher temperatures the rate of deterioration would be more rapid than it is here but there were ten stages through which the corpse could pass and they are listed as a swollen corpse discolored festering assured mangled dismembered cut and dismembered blood-stained worm-infested and lastly a skeleton I think you can see very easily that this kind of object might very well be suitable for people who are of a lustful disposition but if this object were given to somebody who does not have a loss for this position then it could be that best unproductive but he could also be damaging some people say that you can use either an animal corpse you can't find a human corpse or you can use your imagination and do the whole exercise through your imagination so even if you can't get access to a real human corpse there are alternatives the next set of ten are called a new city or recollections the recollection of the virtues of the Buddha the Dhamma and the Sangha recollection of ethical conduct recollection of liberality or generosity recollection of the Devas the heavenly beings recollection of the qualities which they must have developed in order to be reborn as a heavenly being and then peace peace of mind tranquility and the quality of Nirvana which is also peaceful as the cessation of suffering and then the next one is Mariner death the uncertainty of life death can arise at any time but he will arise sooner or later one can reflect on the inevitability of one's death and prepare for it it suitably in a suitable fashion and then number nine is kaya the body the thirty two parts of the body starting with bits of body which are easily visible like hair of the head hair of the body teeth nails and so forth then going into internal organs lungs heart etc and then the liquids which flow around the body like blood and by understanding that the body is made up of nothing other than these different parts then one can reduce one's attachment to it as my body all it is is a collection of bits and pieces and then the last of these ten Alyssa T's is mindfulness of breathing on Aparna Sachi which is probably the best-known most widely practiced object the nur of the four brahma vihara the for divine abodes the buddha said that if we can develop these qualities here in this life now then we can live as if we are divine beings and for meta loving-kindness karana compassion mudita sympathetic or appreciative joy and Oh better equanimity this is a very high level of equanimity the highly developed mind this is not the same equanimity which we found when we were looking at the first few chapters arising in the Karma of utter of the sense Plains where we had more or less indifference as the translation for equanimity here is a very much higher developed State then the next four are the four are Roopa John's the form les Jana's of infinite space infinite consciousness nothingness and neither perception nor non-perception we should have come to these in more detail later and then the thirty-ninth object is perception of the loathsomeness of food this might strike us as a little bit peculiar because we spend a huge amount of time and effort finding preparing cooking and eating food we make this into a very enjoyable activity but this is all forms of sensual pleasure sensual attachments and monks are taught to regard food as simply fuel fuel to keep the body going so that the meditator can continue his spiritual development and then the last one is Vava Tama the contemplation of the four Great elements earth water fire and air or solidity fluidity heat and motion every material thing is composed of these four elements in different degrees and by contemplating the nature of material objects including our own body we can see that they are all devoid of any lasting permanent quality because they are always in a state of change when one of these objects is taken for serious meditation practice and this can lead do these higher states of mind we call jhana the sequence of individual thought moments is not the same as the 17 thought moments which were described in the very beginning in the first class when we are perceiving usually objects coming through the external senses in this case we have the first three as they were in that explanation was the bolphunga then as the Vivanco Challinor or the vibrating Belanger and then the Bhuvana aparte de the arresting vivanco then number four is the marled Varuvaayaa thus turning towards the mind door and then the next thought moment is called parikamma this is the preliminary or initial thought moment preparing for what is to develop from this then number six is Patara sometimes known as access concentration or proximate concentration because this is close to the state of Samadhi at this stage five hindrances are temporarily suspended and then the next thought moment an Aloma is called adaptation or conformity this is adapting the mind to the next state to come now these are all at this moment still in the karma voucher the sense fear planes but at number eight the fourth moment is got rebel gotra means a lineage and got rabu means breaking the connection with the sensible world transcending the central sense of a world and crossing over into the Janik plane and then at number nine we have the apana jhana ecstatic concentration this is the first Rupa Jean and it goes by the name of Magda Magda cheetah the next to the follow Paula chapter so path consciousness and fruition consciousness and after that there can be another five by Vanga moments to make up the total of 17 the problem we have is our mind is spoiled by what we call hindrances or me Verona and this process of developing jhana suppresses these hindrances on a temporary basis the five hindrances are tamo Shanter sense desire via pada ill-will fina mid sloth and torpor Mucha cúcuta restlessness and worry and lastly VG kita sceptical doubt they have each been likened to various states of water which can be such that I cannot see ones reflection in the water and in the same way the hindrances we cannot see what is to our own benefit and the benefit of others so Tomich under senses are is likened to a debt or water mixed with various colours so we can't see clearly via pada sometimes called a disease is like boiling water the mind is in a state of turmoil seen amid this imprisons the mind so this is like water covered with moss overgrown and we cannot see through it who - a Capuchin restlessness and worry like him to be in the state of slavery this is like water perturbed and blown up by the wind and the Chiquita sceptical doubt like being lost in a desert without a map and this is likened to turban or muddy water again through which you cannot see anything all of these hindrances arise due to ah Yanis so mana Saqqara unwise attention if we pay attention to things in an unskilful way then these hindrances arise if we can however develop young is so normal Saqqara why is attention then we can begin to work on the hindrances and prevent them from arising there are five Janak factors which arise during this process of meditation on an object and the first of these is called vitarka the initial application of the mind to the object its likened to somebody who wants to see the king he cannot just go up and see the king he needs somebody to give him an introduction to the king and so this is vertical it is the initial application of the mind to the object be well to analogous the first is is like a bee landing on a flower or it's like a shipwrecked sailor making landfall coming to dry land at last and this first factor cannot be achieved by a lazy mind so this can only be done if there is no sloth and torpor so this particular jhamak factor vitarka suppresses the hindrance of sloth and torpor the second factor is vichara the sustained application of the mind to the object the continued pressure of the object of the mind on the object so now the object is being studied more carefully in detail the bee starts to explore the flower where exactly is the nectar that the B wants or the Salem now starts to explore the island that he's reached where could he find water where can he find firewood he he conducts a thorough investigation and in the course of doing this the meditator thinks hmm this practice is working so I no longer have any doubt about it so the hindrance of doubt which teacher is now suppressed the next factor is joy oh btw delight a pleasurable interest in the object call it elation and go resist this refreshes the mind it creates a positive interest in the object therefore this overcomes the hindrance of via pada anger and displeasure and dislike mentioned here but some people criticized the the teaching of Buddhism because it mentions too much Dokka suffering gloom and doom misery unhappiness etc cetera well this factor of PT is a very important part of the practice and this is a very positive enjoyable stage the PT then goes on to change into soup which is a pleasant mental feeling we can call it happiness but this is not connected with sensual pleasures or material pleasures this is really the outcome of renouncing these pleasures that leads to the arising of this state of soccer so now while while PT had a rather excited state this is now the calming down of the mind the mind becomes peaceful restful and so this leads to the suppression of the hindrance of restlessness and worry we can say that the shipwrecked sailor sees a clear pool of water that is exciting for him that is PT but when he actually gets to drink it or bathe in it that is more like sucker so now the mind is becoming very calm and peaceful the concentration becomes well-established and this leads to the development of a computer or one pointedness this is the essence of concentration one pointedness has been present in the four previous days but now it becomes more prominent and this leads to the suppression of sense desires together with us the the hindrance of karma Tundras and then also there arises woodpecker true equanimity if you have your chart number one point five you will see all of these jhamak factors listed across the top of the chart so when all of these five Janak factors i have arisen and all the five hindrances have been suppressed we have obtained what is called the first state of Zhang Rupa Jana Jana based on a material object if the practice is continued then the states of mind become more refined so the first thing to happen is the initial application vitarka that drops away it's like the person wishing to see the king now he's had an introduction to the king he doesn't need to keep on having an introduction to see the king so the the first jhana factor of the taka falls away and we're left with just four driving factors if the practice is continued even the sustained application of the Chara there is no longer necessary and that drops away so now we have just three factors bt suka a character when PG goes away then the mind is one stage more pure and we have just sucker and opec turn and then lastly even the suka subsides and we are left with impeccable this is a very pure state of mind in which all these hindrances have been suppressed not eliminated but they have been suppressed the mind is now very calm and the concentration is very deep and the meditator may choose how long he wishes to stay in this state but the problem with it is that these states of jhana are not permanent and they were known even before the time of the Buddha and the Buddha talked about them as dicta Dhamma sukha vihara Pleasant living in the present moment so these states of jhana are very enjoyable and they can be even seductively enjoyable people can get hooked on them and so a form of attachment develops and the Buddha himself found these to be excellent ways of training the mind and also very pleasant experiences but because they are impermanent they are ultimately unsatisfactory they don't lead to what the Buddha was looking for which was the state of permanent happiness enlightenment so these states are very enjoyable but they are impermanent and when these states subside then the hindrances will come back and wish me back in the everyday world with our normal mind states | London Buddhist

MzKkCtmL9vk | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MzKkCtmL9vk | Panel: FOSS in Asia – Updates & Forecasts (SFLC Fall 2019) | to everybody who said and even more to everybody who thought gee this is a very Eurocentric discussion you should stop doing now is the time when we stop doing this Misha said quite correctly earlier in the afternoon that lots of people don't live here in fact the majority of the human race lives elsewhere that's certainly right but that's not the only reason that thinking about Foss from an Asian perspective is now required by you know it's more than demographic gravity it's more than the question what is the driver of the global economy it's that we are watching in real time as the world trade system is being disrupted in the western edge of the Pacific Rim even more than here in very dangerous and complicated ways and Foss is caught in the middle of it it doesn't matter where you live in the world the fate of Foss in Asia in the societies that build and serve and contain all of that part of the human race the fate of Fossen Asia is the fate of freedom in the world so in taking an Asian espect ivana subject we may of course be doing some violence to our normal assumption that English is the most important language and that here is the most important place but we are beginning to get to the central concerns that both the Foss ecology in business and the free software movement have to address among the three panelists we have here we are um well I am privileged to have been able to convince the people I'm most wanted in the world to be here one it is true as my law partner she has fewer choices but but but but but this for me is also a sign of what it means to have spent your life well because you have met good people Maggie why and I met in Shenzhen because Chloe and fell she began to have a relationship with one another at the beginning of this decade and Maggie was the lawyer Chloe who was capable of helping me to understand what was really going on around me as I began to deal with this new company for the first time Maggie then went on to translate for us the SFL see compliance guide for copyleft licensing and GPL 3 and became our linguistic and cultural lifeline to the enormous WeChat community of Chinese IP lawyers that I would never have been able to reach without her kid on salt on the other hand well that's the beauty of being a law professor carry on turned up in my law school class because he came to take an LLM at Columbia Law School and eventually we decided we ought to do something together in Korea so I said to him go learn some stuff about fostering Korea and let's see what happens and next thing I knew he had got us a whole lot of opportunity to learn and even to do a little business and to understand the state of the phos world in Korea let us say five years ago so here are two people I was fortunate to meet expert in the things that you would like us all to learn about and stop being so ethnocentric that we can't hear the very best bunch that I could possibly offer for a beginning of the conversation we're all going to have a lot of to follow Maggie do you want to begin shall we start with the Chinese situation okay sure I thought I'm the math one okay but you have slides I do okay did you like okay so the force start I have to let you know that maybe some of you don't know in China we don't have facebook we don't have children we don't even have access to Google or even Wikipedia so my talk is biased in some way okay but I try to give some ideas about China and I try to I try to talk from you know another not from my personal view but I try to give some date data to show you the whole picture of China in false area first this is a photo of Chinese family having meal together I want to say that China China has always had this custom custom for sharing and open-source is all about sharing and and I think the way of people eating is very important it affects how you do things this is a friend of mine mr. Roboto he's the chief architect at the Xiaomi technology a phone company so this is a he he personally sent me a message about this and last year so he says the power of open source coming from China is getting tremendously stronger in the fields of cloud computing and big data as well as AI so I think even if we are we don't have all the access we can have we still are a part of the technology innovation in the world this is a data from a report by by Chiron Shaw Crenshaw is a community in China which is very active in recent years and tomorrow or maybe today in the evening there's a conference called cost Kong it's going to start in Shanghai China which is held by Chiron sure and I asked her Evan to give a one-minute speech and I took a video of him this video will be shown in the conference this is a kid star ranking I tracked the dis ranking from last year you can see that Alibaba was ranked the number in eight last year and now is number five and ten cent is in the top 10 list spar committee committers you can see that more Chinese developers are on the list even on what the there there are even some Chinese names with the non Chinese companies you can see when licensees are growing in China as well last year and financial Alibaba joined and I think this year more companies joined Hawaiian I think this is a way to look at the technical side of the country because more companies are open to the outside world sponsorship with major foundations you will see the names of Huawei by - Alibaba attention all the major players in a technical field and organizations in China that attract attentions kiona is the most active also there are some which had official accounts which are sponsored by different companies or with or some of them are individual accounts from the legal side lawsuits in China about open sources just non-existent basically there was a case that people got aware of because it mentioned GPL but it was just used as a defense to - just to I think to differentiate what what is the proprietary software what is open source it's not really enforcing rights in GPL so the open source is used basically as a defense for identifying copyright ownership or trade secret and no case is found to claim rise in open source software and there are some other cases mentioning open source but not really relative to claiming rights in open source there is one case that relates to trade secret League in open source community some guy who left a company and he published the companies treat trade secret and github so that's another case and not well this is a photo we took last month fr way it was a joint event by Huawei and open open chain project you you you can see Shane in the photo and you can see Keith at the end of the table so we basically invited all the major companies and ginger also companies like Baidu alibaba's and people here so this is an in-house meeting it was very well received and I gave a speech about in-house management of open-source software well I had the feeling that almost every technical company started to realize open-source was very important to them and some of them were trying to be compliant and some of them already started to contribute to the community and they wanted to do more these are the important the recent issues that also caused China's attention everything we talked about today please be aware that in China we know about that as well especially you know in the legal the legal field actually I have something here I want to talk about [Music] well I learn aloud to this today so I think this in China we really need to collaborate with the outside world and it seems that there is no you know no nonprofit organizations really active in China I know oh iron and Linux Foundation did a lot of work in China they sponsored some meetings and those were really nice and the Chinese companies really need that I just well I met these fantastic people here today I just wish that we could have access to all these professionals in China but we don't so I don't know how we can deal with this but I believe that with the development but those companies when they realize that open source compliance and contribution are getting more and more important they will send people to important meetings like this or to Japan there will be a summit in December I think really we we need collaboration so to summarize I think Chinese companies started to shift from compliance to contribution legal risk is still very low but but people do realize that licenses are important compliance awareness is improving as as I get other questions and because because I worked at far away and people know that I had experience in dealing with compliance and they some other companies later found me and they asked me all sorts of questions and I go to different companies to talk about open source as well and so I think really compliance awareness is in is improving in recent years and supply chains are gradually requiring compliance because even if a company he doesn't know about it his he probably the company probably has the clients who require compliance so they gradually have to follow rules so that's all I wanted to talk about thank you [Applause] hi I'm song my first name is kid ohm but everyone called me song when I was here so I prefer to guess be called song when you can't think of it just think about singing a song then I'll pop up the issue that I was asked to analyze and explain was the current situation of Korean farts and based on that analyzation to give a forecast of Korean fast in the future so I prepared some slides the contents is going to be first as usual like a brief explanation of my firm but I'm gonna make a very brief and as the content says they pass in present situation and then the future prediction but between I want to give a Korean unique situation which is gonna like help you understand why Koreans are thinking in which way in a certain way and then the conclusion okay my firm is the second-largest one in Korea we deal with all sorts of legal matters that happens in Korea so whenever any legal issues if you encounter just sing the song second in my firm there's a team called open-source software team we're composed of nine we call him experts which are for partner attorneys two associates and three advisers like me sorry and like we're working together as a team it depends on the task or case which case falls into which partner and who gets involved so I'll just make it that brief the second part is the past and present situation of Korea what I want to explain is in Korea you have to it's going to be easier for you to understand the if you split it to public and private sectors in public sector of course the government and in creates a unique situation which the government has a very strong role in father also like every other sector in Korea and up to this point as you know Microsoft is very successful in Korea like over 80 percent of the PCs are run by Microsoft Windows and technological dependency is always like a problem from our viewpoint that we're too dependent on what we call the foreign technology and in the private sector as you know we have global manufacturers like Samsung LG and SK and at the same time we have a lot of middle and small-sized companies which which are always wondering what Samsung is doing and are in Korea up to this point the actual problem regarding open sources license problem how we're going to be compliant that was the and is the biggest issue up to this point so I want to I want to explain the uniqueness of the Korean culture first there's a wee culture and in this we it's not just doing the project together it has to be pure Korean and if it's not made purely by a Korean company it's not regarded to be as inside the we groups so that's a starting point so it it comes down to is it is a Korean or foreign so I don't want to say localization that's too weak a word you know we have to say Korean ization it has to be made inside Korea that's what we tell Koreans regard or we Koreans regard as truly Korean our made inside or localized so the Korean uniqueness based on this the government has the lead it always has a lead in the past this government leadership made it possible to made it possible for Korea to might build up its economy in a very short time and in Korea like the minister there's a ministry there's a department called Ministry of science and ICT which has a budget of 510 billion USD a year of for a year and then underneath it there is an iPod national IT promotion agency which spends 316 more than 360 million a year just in promoting IT businesses and especially for fast there's open source software competency Plaza which spends over 12 million dollars just to promote open source and my firm is working with this open source software come competency Plaza we work last year we're working this year and we're expect it to work next year too and also there's another government branch and another government organization called KCC Korean copyright Commission when I was a s FLC we used to work together with KCC and they also spent over millions of dollars just to promote open-source compliance and governments and at the same time I want to not only the government side but on the private sector I want to say it coexists companies and complexes which the government and private companies are combined together the global players and midsize and small side players they're all in the same RIT market and they're competing against each other and most of the small sized ones are sort of subordinate to the conglomerate Samsung and LG and they have a huge influence over the little size IT companies and the one of the unique unique thing in Korea is they are government built IT complexes for example there's G Valley which stands for Kudo which is the area name and also the V Valley the venture Valley and there are over 30,000 IT companies in these two areas alone so Korean Korean government is building up these IT complexes and giving a lot of benefits to the IT companies which go in there and like for example tax exemptions or other like export subsidiaries and so on but what I want to emphasize is open source in the in other countries are sort of done in the private sector not government led but in Korea the government is very emphasizing the need of open source also like the private sector and among the private sector there's a organization called cosa Korean open source software Association and over 150 open source companies are inside and a member of this association Samsung is a member of this association and a lot of little size companies are also member of this they do open source support which means compliance support governance support they do open source education last year and this year they gathered up about 30 programmers from 30 companies and then they sent them to Boston FSF and other places to do the actual field trip and go back and get motivated and get some other like more positive influences and like do more open source activities when they go back to Korea and this cosa is a kind of opinion control tower they gather the opinions of the companies or the companies that are sort of related to doing open source business and they give it to the government and try to make it possible for companies to get a better touch of open source the government is always asking what they need more the companies need more and the companies are saying they need more subsidiaries in a lot of kinds so this is how the usual like fast development occurs inside Korea so based on this I want to give my my own future prediction I think more government action more government engagement is going to happen in the future because the ultimate goal for the Korean government is overcome technological dependency especially what is called the fourth revolution fourth Industrial Revolution blockchain and a I came out as a hot key word and those key words and the goat the Korean government is really thinking that if the Korean government uses or can be able to use these new technologies wisely it's going to be able to overcome the technological dependency towards other nations and the current situation for example the current situation is the Korean government is really putting emphasize on what is called the open type OS it's sort it's not exactly the same but very similar to open-source software operating system harmonic OS is made by the Ministry of science and ICT and it's going to be replacing the Korean military computers which are over twelve thousand pcs by number itself and it's already their government is already implementing implementing this plan and another one is Coulomb which means cloud Karuma OS is developed by the national security tech lab and it's replacing the post office is the post services computers already and also there's a team X OS which is a combination of open source and proprietary software together and team X is also starting to replace a lot of government computers and another phase is the Ministry of Interior and safety which is like they took the agency that governs the whole Korean government system it's it made a task force several months ago which is combined of ten software companies and security IT companies the purpose of this task force is to figure out what security threats are going to be in those pre mentioned OS is that the government created and which at the end the task force is also going to be a like making efforts to do whatever is more productive or beneficial to the in open-source community itself so that was the government side and also the civilian side I think it's going to be more active participation change in the way of thinking in the past the Korean companies were only focusing their efforts on using and how to use it more efficiently and now they learn by experience that other huge companies are not only using it they're leading the communities and groups like Samsung they're trying hard Tizen and a lot of other projects but we're not seeing the results as we wanted it to be so we're just trying to put more efforts in this sector but still the English English language is a barrier for the programmers they are not that much fluent in speaking English so they have this fear of jumping into the open-source communities but the government is trying to one of the reason why they're gathering the programmers and doing overseas like sightseeing site visiting is to get rid of that kind of barrier for educational purposes and the third one is investment in IT Ventures M&A the pre-existing large IT companies are sort of absorbing the middle or small size companies and they're figuring out and there's trying to thinking I started started to thinking that that's the easiest and fastest way to catch up in the fields that they lack expertise in and a lot of a lot of times it's not that successful but still these companies are pouring money into these M&A fields so my conclusion is the South Korean public sector it's going to be more hours in the Korean term our term so the strong government movement overcome technological dependency is going to continue and get stronger and stronger in the future and heavy investments in new areas right now if you say I have a venture or venture IT company or I'm going to make one there's a lot of government money you can just get get like for just submitting a plan for that so the Korean government is very eager to get rid of the past subordinates of the in technology and in the private sector as I said change in the way of thinking to trying to lead the open-source communities is going to be stronger and more IT venture activities is expected and my thought so that was the short and brief analysis any questions well I have no slides and you've heard enough from me but it's convenient for me to take out one hack and now put on the Hat of India I am the founder of s FLC Diane but no longer the executive director which is great because we have a 15 members team and now they can run on their own I've been doing this work for quite some time in 2015 I was in Hong Kong invited by Asia Society to talk about our work obviously I'm not important so General Petraeus David Petraeus if you're familiar he was the one who came and gave her just give a talk and he said mostly on the lines of this is all nonsense the next decade or the next two decades don't belong to Asia they're still in North America and I was like maybe General Petraeus wants to know how to actually save his email and we're to act and how to encrypt it then he won't also he won't also be making these predictions about the future I don't have much numbers but I can talk a little it might sound like we've had a lot of success but we've been at it for a very very long time and that's just as Kiran said and Maggie began with this beautiful slide about culture I think we all at least in Asia have this great culture of sharing and so the share and share alike is not a new concept but like everything else people from the West come and then tell us here you have a great idea basically it's another recycled idea but before that we'd already had the advent of intellectual property and we'd been told that innovation only happens if you have copyright and patents and soft IP and and there's a lot of money I was an IP litigator there is a lot of money in that and then an open source game so India's had a very robust open source community free software foundation India was very active before my time before I'd started doing this work there are many other FSF's in India which are state wise we always win in numbers so don't be envious every time we will quote something we will always be talking about a much larger population because that's where a lot of the world lives so Kerala where the entire state government runs on free and open-source is only 31 million people and there are 28 states in India so there's there's been as I said a tradition of free and open source the community got to it because communism is not a bad word in that part of the world still and and neither is socialism so a lot of those political parties those knowledge workers got very attractive to this philosophy so there's been a very robust free and open-source after community I don't think I need to tell you all of your software or back-end offices or even front-end offices a lot of stuff is being done by us in India so we've been big producers big users for a very very long time I see that these are not my numbers but 80% of all open source contributions today come from outside of the US and the top two markets for open source development outside the US are India and China and the markets are growing at 30% year over year average because these numbers are github you'll obviously trust them and they're more credible so that's the numbers we are growing we see open source everywhere in fact Indian government is the only government which has an official policy of adopting and making sure in all our contracts open sources the preferred one Red Hat is very very successful in India the first time I saw a red hat was in Delhi High Court and Supreme Court of India where all computers were being run by red hat and this is 2001 sorry I'm just aging myself but there are various new companies I think it's an accepted thing that there is no other high quality cheap raw material like open source provides all businesses are made on that this is to our success I would say there is no software patents in India and that's been a big success of Communist Party which had a lot of seats earlier when 2005 before the deadline for trips compliance was running out for us there is no software patents in terms of legislation they are not recognized they're just pure math but obviously they are irregularly granted as a fallacy Diane has challenged several of those many of them are still pending the which I filed in 2011 because Accenture has more money and so does many other people and patent offices run even at a much more sluggish pace than this but that's not where the fun is because we are very envious of our neighbors across the Himalayas so our fun is now about data and we want to keep everybody up and that's why data localization is a big big deal in India and because we are 1.25 billion people and when I call for an open chains first conference meeting 25 major companies show up and Reliance Geo already has a plan for it so who are now big users of open source and understand it and have money to throw at it but are also very much aware that US can only tell us that six billion dollars of the trade is what will be the price if Indian government doesn't take its data localization initiative back and Indians are like really 1.25 billion people and six million dollars go home we're not even talking but that's that's where we are moving there is a ton going on obviously it is the most important market for many of big platform companies they're not allowed in China so we are the big people and India loves using other people's things because we learnt it from the best most Indians have been trained in the US so it's good to use everybody's thing but to your own advantage and that's where we are going what SAP has the largest market right now the number of Indian Internet users and this is mostly mobile cloud to mobile architecture not really broadband like it's here it's 420 million people only total feature phone users are 950 million so that's the only market we have that's the market and that's a big difference that's why it's attractive encryption fights are being fought their content takedown like I read somebody and now I quote all the time is in terms of politics and what companies are doing and like the theme of the conference whatever Iran India and us are watching the same reality TV we are just two seasons ahead both in terms of our politics and both in terms of what the companies have done and because I'm also the timekeeper I am going to stop talking let's do around them information questions people want to learn something from the experts before the house Sam - um at least a couple of the speakers we have been focused very much on the commercial side of things and at least at the beginning this free software movement actually was a you know community movement and to those who didn't cover it what's the community aspect what's it like for the individual developers how much does this have outs influence outside of the commercial context it's not a proud thing but in Korea most of the developers they're so busy doing whatever their company work they have and it's pretty hard to join the international community or pure open-source communities unless it's sort of one way or another related to their actual work so in the past the participant rate was really really low but now companies like Samsung or LG they truly get the notion of how important it is to become a member or a participant in the community inside the community so they started to create several starting from several years ago they started to created jobs purely open source or purely community participants and those big companies they have the money and time and manpower to pour in to those actual real open source work but for little size companies I doubt that they have that kind of resource and the situation hasn't changed that much and those developers which are sort of so busy soaked up with the pre-existing work they're not that active in participating in community works that's how I see ok in China things are a little bit complicated I think the community is still more on the commercial company side instead of individual developers I think you know China has been developing so fast and young people feel it's hard to survive in big cities but the only big cities offer good job opportunities so they are fighting hard to get good jobs with companies and they don't a lot of developers don't really want to contribute either because they are with this company and company has policy that you can't contribute to the community or the even if they are individual developers some of them are students they need they can do it as a hobby but only probably for a short period of time and they want to move to commercial companies I have to say that is because Free Software Foundation India existed as a fal'cie Diane has existed for a very long time we have a lot of Debian country contributors our current CTO is very actively involved among before was in the Mozilla community I think there's a lot of pride in being able to contribute to any of the projects and it's not that we don't have the gender imbalance or diversity problem but it's not like in the u.s. in India obviously our choices our doctors or engineers or software developers whether you're a boy or a girl so we we do pretty well there and and there are a lot of avenues I don't think enough because I don't think that's ever enough until we actually reach numbers which are perhaps better than anywhere else but there are regular events there is a lot of support there is state support not so much but I would say that there are definitely either corporate support or community support itself there are some times at institutions who have believed in this for a very long time or their political party support as I said knowledge workers are organized and they do believe in this very much so the freedombox foundations the project in Andhra Pradesh which is actually a completely Microsoft captured state for a very long time but has seen such great development and that's not because of companies that's mostly because the community believes in it and the ethos are so important that I'm sure some of you who've been coming to this conference have heard Evan many-a-times talk about America computer Community Center this is a community center based in Islam in Bangalore behind IBM's office where engineers who work in these big companies all of your companies who have spent their evenings and their weekends building a community of kids who would have never found any other way of life if it was not for free and open-source software it's I I used to Evan you're the white man who just gets emotional about everything that's not how we do it but I understand that community how much it teaches not only itself but everybody else also is just the power of sharing and learning nagarjuna who's the chairperson of free software foundation is is a professor at Tata Institute of fundamental research I also will say that I've had the privilege of getting all the free software foundation big giants in India to sit on SSLC Diane's board which is which is a great thing and a lot of them are members or contributors and but he always says I've seen him sit on the floor and start teaching people that free and open-source is about teaching and making things together so I definitely feel very much more encouraged in terms about people community and the philosophy of freedom and I must say that is also given way to the larger movement of Internet freedom which is not going to be possible without free and open-source and the point about freedom is now can be underscored much more than just show me the code I just want to add one more thing regarding Korea I spoke to dark about Korea but I also see a bright future regarding the younger generations which our students and youngsters who are growing up like in elementary school or middle school they're due to the internet and github in every like opened software a lot of young people inside Korea there's a coding fever so a lot of people are sort of trying to or starting to do coding and in colleges there are a lot of open source lectures being taught and among those young people I also see a bright side inside Korea even though the current situation is not ideal from my viewpoints so I say the situation I hope and also the situation is going to get better inside Korea hi thank you um that was really fascinating I myself grew up in Korea actually primarily um so you know this is a fresh and I've been to this conference multiple times so that I think this perspective was long overdue I want to say um it's all said you know obviously I think in in the regions that you guys are representing Oh perhaps relatively you still at its nascent stage and you know if we have to have a narrative about it that's it you know what's interesting for me is growing up I I feel like the big vision and movement was to respect IP right so educated and trained to enforce IP respected and this open source in some ways it's saying all right well revert back to whatever you guys are doing right I'm overly simplifying it of course but obviously there is that tension that the two philosophies I think that we all acknowledge and you know here we went through the conversation through the evolution of its development etc and I think there is a community based sort of negotiation mechanism that helps us to like me want to go to enforcement hopefully as much right of things um of licenses we could just actually have a conversation about it if there are issues arising from it because there are institutions in the place of sort that said you know you know we talked about you know from Korea like a government based approach you know where it's more gone from top-down promotion and obviously each of the different communities have their own institutions that are different from here so you know what sort of import not enforcement but in mediating potential conflicts in the future between OSS and proprietary as the communities know of who do you think would be the key players in mediating which I punch in the conflict there would it be the government would it be corporate based you know standard oriented or you know well I think in China at least the community itself is where you can you know you can enforce your rights it's not like in legal system it's just people companies care about their integrity and they care about whether you know they have a a good name in the community because they want to attract more developers to join their projects or they want to attract the talents to join the company you know so I think community itself plays the most important role as I said they're in we don't see litigations about open source in China so I I don't see any other way to enforce it and and if you you're in China you know that if if you want to enforce your rising commercial software it's difficult already obviously not going to court right doesn't always happen I won't say that there has there's not been a case so far which is good if they had been we would be there considering we are always in court and that's the place we feel more comfortable but there are also quite a lot community efforts when I have to keep get oh i n in India five six years ago the idea was exactly this to explain to them there's an alternative way of doing this you don't have to go through the same process patent pooling works in fact he met the equivalent of the PTO head in India who wanted to come up with his own patent pool for other such stuff India also has a very interesting thing called open drug discovery because for the large pharmaceutical corporations our diseases are not sexy there are evidences ten drugs for diamonds and dogs I haven't confirmed that fact but but malaria tuberculosis these are third world diseases but open drug discovery did this for those kind of diseases tuberculosis mostly we're the same ethos were taken and then transferred so if for enforcement I would say again it will be the copyright law and the courts are going to look up to what's happening in terms of software patents we've had the equivalent of reexaminations for sure some of them actually all of them brought brought by us the other things for just to come up with data about what were these patents being granted we've had quite a lot of success at the policy level at executive and not we don't have to go to the legislative level one of the current equivalent circuit court judges who was a lawyer that time also call me a traitor to my own IP community because I had done this in a newspaper which was fun so you can never guarantee who's going to go to court and but the idea is there is a place there are in India at least there are institutions there's a why and basis of el-sadat I am there is a force F people have at least some history and a lot of people from India do travel and do talk about these issues and as you see we do have access to everything and that's why we talk too much I just want to explain the Korean situation as you said the Korean situation is affected a lot by the government compared to other countries and I don't think in my opinion there's not a single like most important factor that's going to affect the enforcement problems or like later on make it more important or less important because if the court gives out a sample case which is going to be like which is very strong in its result or heavy heavy and imposing some kind of penalty the whole open source community or company private companies are going to move if the government sets out strong movement the private sector is going to move also if the conglomerate Chi bars they move Samsung LG they move in a direction it's going to be a huge movement also because as I said a lot of small-sized companies are sort of getting the works from those huge companies and in that sense I see a bright future in some like movements that are getting started in world worldwide worldwide Lee getting started for example open chain I see a very big and good opportunity which a lot of companies are going to be able to lower the cost of compliance and get much much less risk compared to the past and I think in Korea those several like a lot of other factors are going to affect for example foreign enforcement organizations they can also like make choices or put the control the level of how enforcement is going to be done inside Korea so it's gonna be not only one main player it's gonna be a lot of other players let me make one quick comment in to address your point from a different direction what happened here and I don't just mean here in North America also to a significant extent here in Western Europe what happened in that broad West was that the civil society determination to make software by learning how to make software that is the relationship between young people's learning activity and the resulting software was the driver of everything that happened whether it was leanest or vaults in a dorm room in Finland or it was MIT as a hub of software learning engineering and making whether it was the forms of technological education at Stanford University that led to the spinouts of the great platform Giants of Northern California the root of the activity in creation was young people learning what you have seen in all the discussion that we had here is how different that is from much of the environment to the east Misha's point about the relationship between teaching and software learning in India is to my mind crucial there is the one place where civil society originates software learning as a form of individual human growth and businesses come along whether in China or in Korea or if we had been talking about the Japanese situation we would have discovered that that process was reversed that industry took up the need for the software whether as user or as contributor as profiteer as national champion and the resulting job market activity that begins to have some effect on how education is conducted when I was working as an advisor to Samsung SDS through all the good work that kieran did in order to help us adapt ourselves to Korean circumstances I watched a company which had been making essentially Java middleware for some group for 10 years begin to cope with the fact that it was going to need a ton of Python programmers for things that they wanted to do and I said to them yeah that's really it gonna be a big problem because you don't have any Python programmers because nobody teaches people how to program in Python in Korea and as Kieran rightly pointed out young people didn't do things that weren't going to lead directly to employment the consequence was that business itself began to shape the market in ideas and for labor in directions which came weather from business first or from government first from old people first so I will tell you what I think the real question of the future of free software in those parts of Asia is the question is how can we make the children the leaders how can we make the process and education first process which is how the culture changes we face different obstacles what kiran has said about the importance of government influence throughout the economy means that government will try from a top-down point of view to determine what children learn and how they go about understanding the technology of their world and they will mostly succeed what Maggie has told you is that the Chinese Communist Party's way of ruling China depends upon closing access to certain kinds of knowledge and depends upon an assumption about what civil society can do which requires the leadership of the Communist Party before civil society can do anything one of the most difficult parts of my relationship with the Chinese government over the last several years has been the difficulty of coming to a discussion about how we make free software in the West because it is ideologically difficult to have a conversation with the Chinese Communist Party's leadership over the fact that we make software in vast on hierarchical arrangements of young people working together by pure cooperation with no hierarchical control to the extent that the party understands that is how it works they don't want to admit to the understanding and they certainly don't want to reproduce the understanding the idea of large technologically powerful enabled bunches of thousands of young people working together without hierarchy control is not on their list of things to do today this is a cultural question these are all cultural questions what Misha says about the nature of the relationship between workers who grew up in the slums in Kerala or in Tamil Nadu and who now work as remittance workers in Karnataka and how they understand what it means to give knowledge back to the people in communities like those they come from is absolutely constitutive of an Indian technological culture it's the reason why in Kerala the only place in the oil I ever go where there are signs on the telephone poles along the road advertising for PHP and C++ programmers because if you want a programmer who knows PHP or C++ just put a sign on the side of the road because everybody's learning it in Kerala the concepts of free software begin at age six in the schools the teaching of free software as the technological material of learning begins in fifth grade if we want the whole of the human race to benefit from what we did we have to reproduce that understanding and in doing so as both Maggie and Kieran have shown we have to encounter cultural and political obstacles which are unique to the situations in which we find every time we have this conversation and I promise you we're not going to go another year without having this conversation we're always going to be having this conversation and every year we do it we are going to be addressing in different contexts the sociological and cultural differences in societies which determine how they use and understand free software and how much the word freedom matters and how much the word software matters and how much the words economic development matter and how much the words human development matter mushy is correct to point out that the core of freedombox development has been in a Hyderabad these last four years partly through funding from a Western technology company thought works and partly because the young men who came to it and the young women too came to it through their desire for human capital improvement the improvement of their skills the improvement of their ability to raise and help their communities this where we started in our own little suburb of the human race this place where we started is where they have to end we are reversing processes of development that we took for granted and trying to do that in a way which puts our knowledge at other people's service without putting our culture at their subordination is the great task of the free software movement in the 21st century

BAyD3lfRLok | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BAyD3lfRLok | Austrian Economics for Managers | Peter G. Klein | Welcome to the Mises Academy podcast. I'm Danny Sanchez, director of online learning of the Mises Institute. In this episode, I talk with with Peter Klein about his upcoming online course, Austrian Economics for Managers, which is available for enrollment at academy.mises.org -Sanchez: So, Peter, in a lot of neo-classical economics courses it can seem really dry for practical people who are planning on going into business community. -Klein: Oh absolutely, I think a lot of that is the way economics is taught. So, it's typically taught in a way that's pretty dull and un-engaging, and there are a lot of charts and graphs that don't seem particularly relevant to real-world decision-makers.There's also the substance of neoclassical economics itself, which is centered on these highly abstract and artificial models with deliberately false assumptions, equations, and curves that are supposed to represent production or marketing or whatever, that don't really have any real-world analog. And I think business students and other people trying to get practical insight from application to the economics if that's what they think economic is, they quickly get frustrated and think they need to go with just their intuition other gut feeling, or some guru books that pick up at the airport. -Sanchez: And there are some things that neoclassical economics take as given that economics is supposed to be able to answer how that comes about in the first place. -Klein: That's right, I mean even the basic phenomenon such as the business firm. Why do we have firms, what do firms do, how are firms organized, what kinds of strategies do they use. These are mostly questions that are uninteresting to neoclassical economists trying to build competitive equilibrium models in the economy and so on. So, they stick in little abstract representations of things called firms and plug them into their models and off they go. But, if you're really interested in what a firm is, what a firm does, or as a practitioner, how to set up a firm, how to run a firm ,how to organize a firm, how to strategize, those kinds of models, those kinds of theories are not likely to be very useful. -Sanchez: And Austrian economics can shed light on these kinda questions, can't it? -Klein: I think so, I mean Austrian economics because takes a different approach, it emphasizes causality, cause-and-effect, it's very realistic, it focuses on real phenomenon. Austrians do, of course, employ abstraction as a way of sort of, reasoning about how one kind of mechanism might work, or how one a kind of action might affect some- might bring about some particular result. But, Austrians are always interested in developing their theories and applying their theories in a realistic, real-world context. The purpose of employing abstract economic theory to the Austrians, is to explain the real world. Not to build a little models that amuse ourselves and guess published in scientific journals and so forth, but to explain the world around us. How things work. Why things are the way they are. How we can change things.How we can make them better. -Sanchez: Could Austrian economics help someone to become a better manager? -Klein: Oh, I think absolutely. Austrian economics helps us to understand how people behave, how people act in different circumstances, how they respond to different kinds of incentives, what kind of information they need to make good decisions- and, of course, this is basic management. Management is about people working with people, understanding what makes them tick, why does a person tend to choose a, rather than b, how can a manager set up the environment, provide appropriate incentives, feedback, and so forth, to get people to cooperate and work together. Austrian economics provides a lot of insight into these kinda interpersonal relationships. -Sanchez: Yet, theoretical knowledge isn't a substitute for judgment, correct? -Klein: That's absolutely right, and no one would claim, I certainly wouldn't claim that taking a few courses in Austrian economics or even mastering Austrian theory, is a sufficient condition for success in the real world. Austrian economics, like other kinds of Economics, deals with abstract situations. How you apply the theory to one particular context or another takes some intuition, it takes some common sense or to use a more technical word, it takes some judgment and experience. So, of course, there are lots of successful entrepreneurs who have not studied Austrian economics, and there are a lot of Austrian economists for whom I would not want to work in a business setting, but I think that knowing a little bit a basic economics from the Austrian point of view, gives the manager a lot of insight into how to set things up and how to do things and that insight is complimentary to the kind of intuitive judgment that a successful manager will have. -Sanchez: Do you think some people go into their management career after having taken neo-classical courses are with the mistaken belief that what they've learned about production functions will help them to just be sort of like a technocrat; just plugging in for certain variables and and then making decisions based on that. -Klein: Yeah, I think that's probably true. I mean, related to that is the whole credentialing function of higher education. In a lot of established companies, big companies Wall Street companies and so forth, having a MBA degree from a good university is almost an entry requirement, and there's lot of lore about experienced managers and other professionals who have not gotten a Harvard MBA. How they react to these young Turks who come in freshly minted out of business school, with a whole bunch of wildly unrealistic theories and models and jargon words and techniques and so forth, that really aren't very useful to business. So, I think one of the reasons that mainstream business programs that were founded on neoclassical economics are so popular is because the value of the degree at least as perceived by people on the market, but there's a lot of a backlash against that, particularly MBA programs. A lot of skeptics who think that the kind of knowledge you get going to Harvard or Stanford and getting a professional business degree, is really not very useful for for some fields, for many fields. And I think that's why studying sort of a more rigorous foundational knowledge that's based on the Austrian School, we're not focus and focusing on trendy jargon and buzz words and cute diagrams that you might read in a magazine, we're looking at real business and looking for real solutions. -Sanchez: Do you think people who are hiring who come across MBA holders like that will be refreshed to meet someone who has an Austrian perspective and who takes a course like this? -Klein: Oh, I would think so. Most to the students that I've taught in many years have teaching business students and executives, find that the language and the way of thinking that Austrians employ, makes a lot of sense. It's congenial, it's intuitive for them, it seems to be realistic, it seems to apply, and so I think, yeah, the more students who are trained in Austrian economics or some exposure to Austrian economics, who are going out and getting experiences entrepreneurs and managers. I think that's going to help to bring more people, to attract more attention to the Austrian School. -Sanchez: Now, the first week you're going to be covering micro economics, and how is it useful, do you think, to really start with the fundamental principles first before you go into managerial economics? -Klein: Right. Well, like any Austrian style course, we do things in a sequential and structured manner, so we're gonna start with some basics. Basic economic concepts about scarcity and opportunity cost, and thinking on the margin and so forth, students who have already had the economics courses will be familiar with those concepts, already, but some will not. And before we can talk about things that managers want to do inside the firm, we need a little bit of basic knowledge of how market works. Where do market prices come from, how does consumer demand constrain what the entrepreneur wants to do. Entrepreneurship, whether in a small enterprise setting or in a large company, is ultimately about producing goods and services that consumers will want to buy. So, understanding how consumers express their preferences in a monetary economy through demand, what determines the characteristics of demand like elasticity for example, those are building blocks that managers need to start with before they can get into more specific strategies about in sourcing or outsourcing, or how they want to design their compensation programs, how they want to evaluate employees, and so on. -Sanchez: One other early readings that you've assigned is by H. Edward Wrapp, it's called Good General Managers are not Professional. Could you briefly summarize what that title means? -Klein: Sure. This is a classic article from the nineteen sixties that sort of circulated underground for a long time. Wrapp was a professor in the business school at Chicago for many years and the title is a little bit obscure, but what he meant by professional managers was those who have been to a place like the University of Chicago Graduate School of Business, like we're talking about before, who know a lot of jargon, who know a lot of buzz words, who know theses sort of mathematical models that they learn in school, but don't have any good judgment. They don't have sound instincts, they don't have experience. What Wrapp calls a general manager is someone who really knows how to motivate people, knows how to make decisions, can rely on gut instinct when necessary, knows how to get a overall understanding of the data. What he calls a professional manager is sort of a younger person whose fresh out of business school, who knows how to collect data and do some quantitative analysis, but doesn't know what the data mean, doesn't know how to interpret, is not good at making actual decisions that have to be made day to day, moment by moment. So the pamphlet, I like to assign it as an introductory reading for a managerial course. It's a little bit of a polemic, but it's sort of a fun read to give us a sense of the proper limits of kind of formal technical analysis in dealing with real problems. You know, over the Christmas break I took my kids to see the newer Walter Mitty movie with Ben Stiller, which is OK movie, not great, but there is a particular character- set of characters in the film. The main character Ben Stiller, is a a mid-level employees at Life magazine which is being shut down in the movie, and the company has brought in a cadre of young restructuring consultants whose job is to make some changes, and to fire people, and to help to bring closure to the the print version of the magazine. And they're portrayed as smug, arrogant, uninformed about how anything in the magazine actually works and the movie makes fun of their appearance, their manner of dress, their manner of speech and so forth. It's really good good fun, but I think in many ways that those obnoxious consultants represent the kind of thing that H. Edward Wrapp is talking about when he refers to a professional manager. He means somebody like that who's all about style over substance, is trying to make himself look good with jargon and so forth, doesn't really care about the performance of the organization itself. -Sanchez: Now, in the third week you're covering competitive strategy. Would you like to talk a little bit about what you're going to be discussing that week? -Klein: Right, strategy is- of course, managers have always employed a strategy because of the formal analysis a business strategy is a very, very hot area in the field of management. It really took off in the 1980s with some important work by Michael Porter, a professor at Harvard Business School. We'll read one of Porter's articles, which is interesting, from our perspective here, the way Porter approached strategy for business, was to start with neo-classical microeconomics very explicitly until we can use this as our analytical framework, but just flip it around and tell it from the firm's point of view, rather than the regulators point of view or society's point of view. So for example, in a traditional industrial organization course, students learn that competition means lots and lots a little tiny firms, monopoly means a few big firms, the anti-trust authorities have to step in to reduce barriers to entry, to reduce concentration rates, to allow for a greater number of firms in the industry, et cetera. So, Porter said, 'We'll that's right, but from the point of view of the incumbent firm you want to limit competition. You want to erect barriers to entry. You want to increase the concentration ratio and hear some different tricks and tips that you can use to try to keep other firms out of your industry." I mean, there's a lot of interesting potential inside the can come from thinking about that way, but several scholars and many practitioners have thought, well that's the wrong way to look at competition. Austrians look at competition as a dynamic rivalless process of entrepreneurship and innovation. It's not a static thing where you look at the number of companies in the industry right now, rather we're interested in the conditions by which new firms could potentially enter in the future, were interested in how firms innovate to stay ahead, the whole dynamics of the constant flux of a market economy. If we take that perspective, we get a very different view of strategy, but what a firm needs to do to be successful is not to try to increase concentration in a static sense; not to rest on its laurels, but rather firms have to innovate. They have to experiment. They have to be aware of the threats of potential competition from rivals in the future. -Sanchez: Sort of a implicit competition. -Klein: for sure and so I get it I think thinking about a static versus dynamic competition is a useful framing. Now, some scholars began to look to Austrian economics as a way to get new insight of strategy. There's a very famous article, which we'll read, which is published in the Academy of Management Review, the most prestigious theory journal in Management Studies in the early nineties, called the Austrian School of Strategy. Which is a very explicit attempt to take concepts from Austrian economics and use them to help managers make more money. -Sanchez: And they have sort of, a very limited view of what entails competition, don't they? That they sort of, don't realize how products that aren't exactly then same can still be competition. -Klein: That's exactly right, and just as the neo-classical, anti-trust approach- the industry studies approach. You know, who mistakenly thinks that if a firm like Wal-Mart for example, is large and has a large share of the market for discount retail, that by itself is an undesirable outcome. That is an anti-competitive phenomenon. Austrians and others have pointed out, we have to look at how did Walmart get to be large. If a company is large because consumers prefer to patronize it rather than some more expensive rival, then that is a very competitive situation. It's the outcome of competitive behavior. Likewise, from the manager's point of view, if you think that being large equates to being successful, that Walmart has market power [so] no one can effectively compete with it, if you have that mentality and you're running Walmart, well then you're just going to rest on your laurels. All we need to do is stay big. We need to try to crush any little guys who come in. But, if you don't understand how you got to be big, in other words by being efficient, by cutting costs, by being more innovative in adopting information technology, and so forth. Walmart, by the way, is an extremely innovative company in adopting all the sort of logistics innovations, supply chain management innovations that allow it to get its cost down. If you forget about all that and just look at your market share numbers, well then you don't know how to innovate and you're not likely to persist in your strong market position. You're goning to be out competed by somebody who is more aware how firms get to be big. -Sanchez: In the Pixar movie, "Wall-E" there's sort of, going back to Walmart, there's sort of like a a Walmart equivalent that eventually grew to become the one company in the whole world and and basically, almost like a one world government, but it was a corporation. In your fourth week you're going to be discussing firm boundaries. Is that conceivable? Can Walmart eventually, not only take over target, but just basically take over every company and become the only producer in the whole world? -Klein: Well, not only is that highly unlikely, there are sound theoretical reasons to think that that could never happen. In fact, that's one of Murray Rothbard's great contributions to the study of industry structure, and not one of his best-known contributions. But, Rothbard shows in, "Man, Economy and State" and a couple of other places, how Mises concept of socialist economic calculation, how Mises argued about the need for private property, the need for private ownership of resources and competition among owners of resources from which come market prices, that are needed to allocate resources effectively. Rothbard shows how Mises is argument is not just about socialist countries, but it's really a more general statement about the need for private ownership and competition among factors. And Rothbard showed that if the kind of thing you described were to happen, if a company were to acquire other companies and keep expanding and growing and growing, at some point, if it found itself the only firm in a particular sector, if it found itself the only user of particular resources, then it too would face the economic calculation problem faced by the Socialist manager. It would not be able to price its inputs appropriately, it would not be able to know what's the most efficient means to produce goods and services, and it would find itself becoming less efficient, less profitable and it would be out competed by smaller rivals. So, this is a good example of how theoretical and practical insights developed in one context. Mises analysis of socialism actually had very powerful application to a very different context, namely mergers and acquisitions, whether a firm should acquire a competitor or not, whether a firm should be vertically integrated or not. It's a good illustration of how we can use more Austrian theory to gain insight into a very important and a very practical managerial problem. -Sanchez: So, that is a upper limit for firm size. Are their theoretical lower limits as well? -Klein:Sure. I mean, one of the things we learn from the study of cooperative human action is ways in which people sometimes find it better to coordinate on a voluntary basis, rather than engage in all kinds of interactions at arms-length. So, the reason that we have companies in the first place, and I'm addressing this in my own theoretical research, the reason we have organizations is because in many cases, it's easier to produce things, it's more cost-effective to produce things in tightly coordinated teams where we designate people into different roles, and we give particular individuals some kind of supervisory capacity. We call them managers or we call them the boss, and many of us find if we sort of work together and we allow the boss to assist us with our coordination, we can get more stuff, we can produce more stuff, and we can individually be better off, than we would if we try to associate with each other at a more distant a kind of relationship. -Sanchez: Now, some on the Left, they really criticize corporations and they say that, really it's not the the shareholders that really control and and own the company on a fundamental level. That it's the the managers, and that there's this conflict mostly between on managers and workers. So, are there Austrian insights that show that that's not really true? -Klein: There are small companies in a mixed economy like we have today, but also they get some of these benefits. So, I don't agree with their point of view that the large hierarchical company is automatically or necessarily the product of some kind of artificial state regulation or intervention, though in some cases it clearly is. Mostly what, we'll talk about some of these legal restrictions in the course, interested listeners might want to take a look at the archives at a course that Art Carden and I did a couple of years ago, I believe it was called, "Big Business, Friend or Foe?" where we got a little bit more explicitly into some of the politics of big business. So I think our course is going cover most of that ground and I think it will be very interesting to people who are curious about that debate who want to know if corporations, per se, or private hierarchies are consistent with competition and the free market et cetera. But we won't focus explicitly on the political or legal aspect in this course. -Sanchez: Well, another aspect of that debate is the principal agent problem and so that's what the people on left are saying is that shareholders, they're only principles in name, but really it's the managers who are controlling things. Doesn't Mises shed some light on that that's really a misconception? -Klein: You're absolutely right. This is an old argument that goes back to the 1930s. There's a famous book by Adolf Berle and Gardiner Means that articulated what we now call the separation of ownership and control. That the kind of principles that we've been talking about up to this point, might apply to smaller organizations, but not to larger ones were you have shareholders owning stocks and you have professional managers who are kind of running the firm on a day-to-day basis, then the true owners of the firm are not getting their wishes. Their wishes are being frustrated because they're not actually operating the firm, there are too many of them, they have other things to do, they don't devote all their time to this company. Heing a professional manager, you're really sort of running the show. Mises has some really insightful remarks in "Bureaucracy" and in "Human Action" about the role of financial markets. How the stock market disciplines and constrains managers of large companies who might want to act against their shareholders interest. And so, we will cover later in the course, the more general topic of compensation. So, that includes not only compensation for executives and how shareholders can design the CEO's compensation plan to make it less likely that the CEO will engage in the kind of discretionary behavior that Berle and Means we're worried about, but also we'll look at compensation throughout the organization. How entry-level workers are paid, how mid-level managers are paid, evaluated, do you use bonus systems, do you pay hourly wage, or do you pay based on output? What kind of evaluation systems can be used? are there ways that employees can try to game the compensation system? How can managers design compensation practices, or human resource practices more generally, to get the best performance at the firm as a whole? So, people who are interested in labor markets might enjoy this course as well because they're certainly a big labor aspect to the running any large organization. -Sanchez: So, at the beginning of the interview we talked about what potential future managers or present managers might get out at this course. How about academics or future academics or someone who is interested in studying this kind of thing at University, would this be useful for them too? -Klein: Oh, I think it would absolutely for students who are interested in of course, learning more Austrian economics and getting them a better and and answered more rounded perspective on Austrian economics. I think they would benefit. Also, researchers, scholars who are interested in domains or applications of Austrian theory, might find this material interesting as well. One thing that I've said for a number of years is that, while the economics profession remains at least to some degree, closed to Austrian insights, not entirely, but is not certain certainly not as friendly to Austrian theorizing as we would like, research and scholarship in management, both in entrepreneurship and strategic management, human resource management, corporate strategy, et cetera. In those academic disciplines there's a lot of receptivity to Austrian thinking, to Austrian style analysis, to the great Austrian books and articles, and so forth. Management as an academic discipline tends to be a lot more kinda eclectic. From a theoretical point of view it's, maybe call it multi-paradigmatic; there's not one dominant paradigm. They're open to a number of different insights, not only from economics, but also from sociology, or psychology, anthropology, and so forth. So, Austrian economics is a viable player in that game of sort of influencing that profession. So, Austrian scholars, graduate students, professional scholars, researchers, private researchers, who are interested in what are some areas were Austrian economics is having influence and can have even more influence, might be interested in looking at the managerial sciences as a very potentially fruitful area for applying Austrian insights. -Sanchez: And even more open to Australian insights than other realms like macroeconomics. -Klein: Oh, I think so absolutely. Like other people outside of mainstream economics, departments management scholars, and people in business schools are increasingly dissatisfied with or disenchanted with the kind of stuff that they hear from Paul Krugman, and that they might read in the American Economic Review. And so, I think they're very receptive to the Austrian School and we should look to build- look for allies there and try to to build relationships there. -Sanchez: Well, thank you so much Peter. I encourage everyone to sign up for your course. It sounds fascinating. -Klein: Thanks a lot. Thank you for listening to the Mises Academy Podcast.

dsK5LZggRlw | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dsK5LZggRlw | Debsources as a Platform | large infrastructure I'm going to share the talk with but you can I so the first part main thing you can do is to actually just navigate to an individual source code file which is part of Debian or fast and you will see that source code file very important like the cows a utility which I'm pretty sure something up that file is and do some fancy stuff like adding messages as I'm going to show you later but at the default message you will just see the content of the file syntax highlighted in this interesting so to just do a Pitta gate source and obtain on your disk other devices so I think I web app to do that it's actually pretty useful because it's where we can standardize and give access to people to the source code of Debian independently on the machine you are using to actually go through that specific piece of source code so an alternative to that you can just go to source is Debbie Annette with whatever browser you want so we care quite a bit about graceful degradation so it also worked with text only web browser and you can do that on a wide number of machines I will briefly go through the features that you find on Deb sources so the basic feature every dimension is a source code I lied so you might wonder which languages are supported so we use a framework to do syntax highlighting in the browser client side which is called eye light dodgy yes which support like 110 languages and you actually welcome support for additional languages so all the well-known languages are in there we have managed to add support for other stuff which was not supported like the scilab source code file thanks to kentucky's by Delian users and this is what you will obtain by default so which part of them are included quite a bit so actually you will find all sweet that we call live sweet so basically all debian releases you can actually find on the Debian mirror network are included from all the old stable to experimental okay so everything which is on the table mirror will be in there and actually every time the Debian mirror is updated we receive a push notification so the content of the sources is immediately updated but we have more than that we also have all the archival is going back to Han okay the reason why we don't have the releases beforehand is that there are some differences in the format of source code back source packages so we need to do some fitting with the pkg source to be able to extract that it isn't the working but all well is is starting from ham to experimental actually included which is quite a bit of course source code so in addition to actually just browse like file by file and version by version to the specific file you want to see you can actually also search so all this amount of source code and you can search by various ways so you can search by package name and we do support like incomplete matches if you don't know exactly the name of the package you are looking into you are looking for you can search by by files and you can search the content of file so how do you search the content of file where we index them in various ways the native index indexing we do ourselves is actually see tags so every single time we add a source code file to that sources we run see tag on that on that file and that means that all symbols which are defined by developers such as variable names or constant names or type names and all this kind of stuff can be used as keyword to actually search for content in in-depth sources and additionally we have a integration with code search Debian net which actually allows you to do irregular expressional searches on the actual content of source code file and you can use code search that debit not that from this source is Debbie Annette interface to actually search for the content of of source code just a caveat debian dotnet does not index all the source code we have in-depth sources it only index I think unstable and it's not updated every time there is a mirror push so the amount of source code you search if you use code search Debbie Annette is actually a bit smaller than what you find in the resources but is usually what you want to to search through for bugs or that kind of stuff the search of course is not done on the fly so it's done in parse go so get pretty big indexes and I'm gonna show you some numbers later but it's actually pretty fast this is the actual user interface you can use for for searching and it allows me to point out that there is another kind of search that they haven't mentioned so we do sha-256 indexing of all the source files which are in that sources so if you want to check whether a specific source a specific version of a specific source file is included in in the browser you can do that and just enter the the ash of the file we do support not only displaying of the content of the specific source files but we offer some additional features which serves different use cases so for instance you might be a developer which one wants to point other developers to specific line of a source code file and some annotation like hey I found a bag here or you might be a user that stumbled upon some Seuss code related her doing the you're using their living machine or you might be a tool you might be using a tool that does some static analysis of files and you might want to associate specific lines of code with error generated by by those tools so we support that with a syntax which allows you to call into web sources and adding specific message in the URL so in this example you say a URL in which we've added a message which is double rocks okay and we associated it to a specific file and the specific line of that file okay so you can do those sort of annotation and you can also ask the associate to ilight those lines for you so you can actually use that so this is a static code base of the Debian source code and just point into that using links from other web applications you can do so these are examples so you can add a message here between at associated light 17 and another example your static analysis example in which you might have find error and you can just add it to a specific line and everything is documented there is a specific URL scheme you can use and it's it's actually pretty simple so you just get parameters you add to the URL thanks to the fact that we compute checksums for all the source code files that are in that sources we actually can find duplicates okay so when you go to specific rendering of a specific file in-depth sources you will find here maybe with the light you cannot see it very well but here it says duplicates 4309 so this is because it was fairly common file which is the content of the textual version of the gplv3 license so that Susan knows that within the content of all the files indexes there are about 4,000 different copies of this life okay sorry it's 4,000 identical copies of throughout all the source code indexed by by their sources so it's an example of a very large number of duplicates but it might be interesting to find out that specific files actually shipped by many different packages and we have the information to do that you can the sausage itself in the applications in the data infrastructure but it's actually also already been integrated into a number of other services in the dynamical system so I've already mentioned code search and the way we have an integration with it is that you have a search form on the DEP sources where you just when you enter when you enter search queries in there you will just be redirected to code search and will recognize that you are coming from sources so when you find a result on concerns to Debbie on dotnet you will be redirected back to Sue's is Debbie Annette for rendering the results we have encountered and this is actually pretty nice because it avoids having to reinvent the wheel of having a lot of different application doing display of the best source code with syntax highlighting you can just talk to us and we can integrate the service into into depth sources it is already integrated into the package tracking system or the new package tracker which is a tracker dot debian dot org so you will see a nice link which is browse the source code and when you click in there you will be redirected to the specific version of your package or you're visiting actually sorry in the PDS you'll be redirected to the latest version of the source code of the package which is available in depth sources you can also just embed the specific windows of web sources in your web application so we do have an API where you can just use an iframe and have the syntax highlighting of a specific source code file embedded in your application this ditch works but it might be a bit clumsy so not every Debian developer lives actually not I'm sorry what developer like using iframe so if you want something better you can talk to us and we can see if we can find better form of integrations we do have some statistics so what we that we have we actually do some statistics which are both specific to individual packages individual version of packages and also aggregated through all the data of them sources so for instance when you are within a specific version of a package on that sources you will find what we call an info box so it's something which is floating on the right while you're browsing to the source code and it contains information about all the data we extracted from that specific package so for instance you will find general the main information line links to the pts or the version control system you will find information about the area so these packages in main you find information about which suite the spectra diesel is available from suggestions see it in this case and you will find information we have computed ourselves after integrating the package into lab sources so for instance here you can see that chromium is actually 2 G 2 gigabytes of source code when if when you want to extract it on your machine that it contains about 2 million there are lot very defined symbols so name a function name of constants name of variables and so on and so forth and you will find the result of slug count so we compute how many lines of code of each languages are available in this specific package so you will find that the the topmost language in chromium is about 10 millions of C code you will find sorry 10 millions of C++ you will find 3 millions of ANSI C and then Python and then go on descending so these are the statistic which are specific to a given package and then you have statistic which are aggregated for all the content of that sources so you can go to associates that depend on that slash stats ok and there you will find metrics how much how much does it take to actually add all the source code of Debian just on your machine this page knows so the amount of lines of code which are in current scene this page will tell you so as an example these are stats for CID as of yesterday I think so in CID we currently have about 11 million source code files we have 23,000 source packages it will take you 228 that's gigabytes right of this to have all the source code on your machine about 127 million of developer defined symbol and a bit more than a billion lines of code this is what we ship when we ship said to our users if your career is the most popular languages in CID so the topmost is a c plus plus and then python and it wasn't the case a few years back so we also have nice trends showing the evolution of programming languages over time and we do as the distinguished are not aggregated to all it is but also studies dedicated to specific religious we do some fancy graph where we're not that good at graphing but we try so this is the evolution for instance of the most popular programming languages over time so you see squeeze here you see wizzy you see just used seed and those in between actually the smaller sweets like the update sweet or the LTS sweets last thing before passing the mic to mature is so everything I discuss is available essentially via user interface so it's something you use in your web browser and the user built on top of HTML and JSON basically but all the information we expose on the user interface are also exposed to developers beyond API so there is a JSON based API which you can use to extract any kind of information you might want to have from the sources and used it programmatically so for instance you can if you are interested in statistic we have in the info box of specific packages like how many lines of source code in C are part of chromium you can use an API to extract that information and I mean saying that passing the micrometer for the upcoming news Thank You Zack went one too okay I'm going to present to you now the new features which have been integrated into depth sources since that's Def Con so the having a lot we had first an outreach G student in ji-yong and we one of the walk of to jisuk students claimed on China on Oasis away no we had also many X ton lot of many new external country you can see the list of the but she's here so this feature enables many pop-up messages included in the sorry in the in the code so this is useful for instance with compilers if they found many errors they can point the user to many places in the code this was not the case before something new that needed a lot of refactoring has been by our outreach to students the blueprints so we use flasks internally in Python to display the web app and now we have many blueprints which are prepped together and these neighbors to to have new applications working on the card base and all the code we archive in depth sources so more this later ok nice fancy fancy feature is the detailed listing of files so you can see the rights and the files and the sizes just like in LS dash L file edition now through chromium or Firefox plug-in you can edit directly the files in your browser with a Java Script magic and now you just click a Boonta a button and the pathogen generated which you can send the gun maintainer of the package that means that the entire Debian archive is editable through JavaScript based browser thanks to refer guys for this ok about jisuk now we have a new blueprint blueprint application which is plugged to all the archived codes in-depth sources which is about the copyright files so there is a part of the archive that uses machine readable copyright files so why not pass and display this information in the web interface compute statistics about the usage of licenses generate SPD x files they are licensed exchange formats never be developed by the Linux Foundation oh and also an API to to get this same information about licenses through the web interface it looks like that so you can actually click on the files click on the licenses and they will they will point you to the right places a second external blueprint application is the patch tracker maybe you've heard of the old patch trachea which is not nine anymore so as a new blueprint made by Isis out jisuk student it does Molly the same things with a couple of new features for constant phone now it only supports the quilt format H will syntax highlight the package just like the source code in-depth sources and you can sub-query it via an api to get the list of patches and the content a it looks like that so you can see that you can view and download the batteries directly and get the list of the descriptions a file a deltas aggregate in on one page of second ji-suk student china walked about and a synchronous up data because until now we had synchronous of data so it is a rewrite of all the stages of the l data it's packaged and compute stats or garbage garbage collection are just examples we're using the celery Python package to actually spawn independent and asynchronous tasks if you want to get more information about these features they have presented it in the ji-suk session this afternoon you can see the video and they will be really soon available on sources at the end of net we are nudging them currently of new features that we are not there when you go so a bit of refactoring now this is a top-level Python module this is intended for packaging the processes which will happen one day a new configuration later now we are flake eight companions which is a bit of Python code for all test coverage today we have 85% of test coverage I don't remember the number for last year but that's way better you can look for package names case-insensitive this is my new feature we have better statistic charts thanks to our looking for a very ancient package or actually I do one sorry bit of Statistics charts thanks to our district student patterns Rhys Ifans I think it's almost there modulo dependency and now the road map so the new features we would like to have in the coming month so the big picture is use the processor as a platform at the displayed platform of something bigger which which is called Dibble to run automatic runs of static analysis tools so the proces could be used to display the results of these tools along with the message this would produce so we can embed this message in the pop up proper feature we saw before we could also gather statistics about the bugs evolution and how they disappear from release to release you can check the build project for that we would like to have more live statistics stats on eyes about licenses patches the evolution file name so this is currently not possible and the link between all the binary package and the sauce package for now we you can only look for sauce packages it would be nice to have the automatic link if you don't know the name of the suspect you're looking for the tab all in double support which is not trivial for instance what we do is double in double in doubles that's never izing oh well 100 dozen test coverage this will happen one day as well now file develop deduplication so we have a lot of similar files the gplv3 we mentioned before with an example you can see that the the duplicated core of the code Arcas is about 45% this is many due to the file scope eight two different versions of a package so if you could do this to the file system level we would save a lot of disk space okay about the technologies behind the box so everything is almost inviting the web application uses the flask framework with blueprints ginger to templates and all the web related technologies like HTML CSS and JavaScript PostgreSQL is behind to store the data in the database we use Apache web server SQL alchemy as an where I am to talk to PostgreSQL and that's a picture of the shema behind Deb sources so you can see as a user that you have access to the web so C is web app as a miner you can have access to the web app through the API to get JSON results and when I show compute SQL directly and the GB if you talk to us some kind of special request for some interesting statistics for instance so we do have a local mirror and a copy of this mirror with all the exported package this takes a lot of space as we will see after and well other details for updating with the mirror and getting the information from archived at the end of our Xterra that's a couple of tables from our possible SQL so you can see there are lots a lot of information in there and then in for instance we have almost 400 millions of different key tags well that's the bigger table the biggest-ever sir okay about this Q's age the impact source is currently take more than eight hundred gigabytes repository SQL almost 150 gigabytes and the sauce mirror 100 gigabytes in total it needs 1.1 terabytes and it's increasing it was eight hundred gigabytes one year ago so that's the evolution of the disk usage on our machine the peak is due to the injection of all the suits in archive the debian dot-org so that's no more okay last point we also use data sources as a research platform especially about the statistics we gathered another content so that source is a huge software collection it's homogeneous because all the software I'm there respect the Debian's packaging format it is up to date so we have there 20 years of source code evolution and plugins to compute stats and all this source code so we can have nice charts for example what other trends in programming language and how they have changed in the last 20 years this is all the plugins we have so you can see the evolution of the number of package the number of files in the archive the number of friends of code of C tags and the disk usage about the sea tides there is a something different with squeeze it's a very supposed to be there but we don't know currently where it looks like that so it's been increasing no surprise there and that's a file size a language so it's actually quite interesting to see the shell scripts really big and became bigger and bigger and before actually becoming smaller in the recent releases that's the absolute evolution of lines of code per language so almost every language is increasing you can see notably C and C++ that are bigger and BL on the other hand we have also computed the relative evolution of this language and C is decreasing there is more and more of C file but not compared to the rest and notably because there was more and more plus plus Java and Python it's not getting bigger from Jesse at the time we computed this just she was testing and there were things like two times the chromium package there are other Linux package so that explains this small peak on the right if you're interested in this you can read the research articles I have written the first one is about the last chart showing you the second one is about the depth of these data sets and how you can use all the data that is in the sauces in a reliable way PDFs are online finally a last point if you want to hike under sources will have first you can clean the git repository which is in the QA team everything is written the hacking file oh you can use doclet actually set up at the sources instance on your machine with a couple of lines to execute the source is the club build and run you will get a container which contains deb sources with a taste data included which contains something like ten or fifteen different packages so you can begin writing color and the dosage without setting up the entire thing which takes one point went zero bytes then you can actually contribute existed there you can write your plugins following the plugin examples we joined the repository you can add new features and sit around it would be glad to to see that thank you very much if you have any questions [Applause] yeah hi thanks for the presentation do you have any statistics beyond the copyright file about Debian holes for instance like which build system are used or anything which is quite specific to Debian sway or Debian patches or stuff like that for the bin patches we are currently managing the work of Mt success to compute them for the beyond rules no we don't but it's quite easy to write a plug-in to to get these statistics because the beginning will be executed for every new package which will come into the archive so that looks like something interesting to do his Deb sources in the Debian archive know it's some packaged yet it's a materialist but actually so the the biggest part of the work was after they were factoring in using a proper top-level vital model which is now done so I guess it should be easy to do that and when they will be able to brute obsesses and obsesses that's a great contribution for something interesting we bootstrap you are him right now wrote an email today to debian devil with an idea to make debian sauce packages available as its repositories each source package should be one TEKT commits in such a git repository and he wrote in his email that he would target snapshots as a source and now i am asking myself he's not here unfortunately whether sources would be a better source to get reliable data what was in source trouble at a specific version in a specific speed and make tech commit out of this and provides this as git repositories may either pre generated or dynamic on request so I can take that so actually no it would be better to do that with next-gen Debian or because our history here is much more coarse-grained than what there is on snapshot they can arc so in section together or you have every version that have ever existed in a given that mean already is at a given time here we only add there is the allowed to say their releases which were a specific package which were available when that release was made so we have one packaged version for edge one for Jessie one for him while in snapshot you also had all the releases that have been developed during the development time of a given release so we have much less religious of any packages than what is available as an option to get on the snapshots also go that far back in time no so that's a different problem you're right so no we go more back in time but that's because I think that should they be an Argus data only since 2006 I think but what is not to the option to be an org is on archive Debian org so for old stuff yes it would be the same to actually use what we have or a caveat to be on or thank you just some what a silly question heaven heaven your accumulated this many files did you do stats like how many files collided am md5sum but their existing files and then how many inch are well you know longer checksum would be different so we only add sha-256 right now so while you know we haven't done that yet actually right so we would be fun to do I don't think there will be any collision by the way when not even with with md5 but hello would you be interested in contribution which imported so no I said yes before the end up because we are always interested in contributions alright so we there is an open bag about integrating into Deb sources source code from other derivatives and let's actually something which is really cool but before tackling that we actually need to implement duplication so I mean need to be essentially the key we are using is like the sweet name so as long as we have a clear naming scheme which differing shades packages coming from other derivatives there shouldn't be a problem I'm curious about any uses of your service by excellent people like where there are any publications by academics team and also for instance for people looking for copyright litigations whatever used so the publication web shown you have still pretty young so the oldest one is like last year so no I'm not aware of other publication except to add from other ones that has been made I know I've been contacted by researcher interesting using the data set but I don't know if they have yet published anything regarding the the licensing information so one of the use case which motivated our work on the Debian copyright tracker in a way is that we have both the license information and the file check zones so we can provide information about license and copyright information as they are seen in Debian to other people and we have an API that allows to do that it doesn't mean that our information are correct because we might always have bugs in dead and copyright files and actually we don't have that many machine readable Demyan copyright files yet even though in seed is more than 50% of their hive these days but so that's one of the use case and actually one a very interesting use case we also have C tags so you can do like fancy stuff like every binary let's look with nm the symbols which are in the file in this binary and let's see if in that sources there is a matching file which have all these symbols and let's see what's the license of that file in according to data so yes those use case you are one of the reason why we're doing this work but and we have been contacted by the as PDX working group about working together but we don't have anything publicly available yet oh maybe you never know other questions okay I would say it's eat so thanks a lot to talk thank you very much thanks [Applause]

zCi4IQvpQbw | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zCi4IQvpQbw | Episode 21: First Things First, But Not Necessarily in That Order | hello everybody and welcome to another confusing edition of Club moffatt talks I am one of your hosts Chris the it's one of the instruction librarians and I'm Joe and I'm also an instructional librarian here at Moffett library and I'm Ryan I am the associate University librarian for public services today we're doing something a little bit different we're not going to be really talking about anything going on uh on campus we're not going to be talking about uh uh academic kind of topics uh today we're actually since it's the first of the year it's a new beginning it's a fresh coat of paint on life I don't know I'm babbling um basically we all just got back from break and we're all still trying to um become alive again so we're going to be talking about uh other things that were uh that we um experienced for the first time or our first experiences was something else um and I guess we just jump right into it unless there's something else that either of you wanted to talk about before we got into the list no we can go for it okay and I'm going to intersperse these with a few of the other things that you uh sent us earlier uh these legal firsts and I would not do them otherwise if not for the fact that I was watching a television show that kind of talked about some of these so uh let's go ahead and jump into this the first album that you bought Ryan first album that I bought well the The Prompt was the first album I ever owned and then it was the first album I ever bought so let me let me do this real quick um but this is the first album I ever owned okay mostly because my parents saw this in the theater when they were drunk and thought it was the most hilarious thing of all time so they went out it wasn't near as funny as they thought it was so this was in the house when I was my earliest memories of being three and learning how to put this on the record player to play it wow first Monday first movie uh first record I ever bought was this also an album an actual album album so and I would have been 12 or 13 when I bought this one okay okay yeah um my I got I got a portable uh record player for Christmas um when I was in fifth or sixth grade and with the portable record player I was given the Glen Campbell album Rhinestone Cowboy now let me just say and this is not any comment against Glenn Campbell or his music at all but that particular album rhinestone Rhinestone Cowboy is probably the happiest song on that album it is a terrible terrible album to give like a 12 year old kid it I mean it's just depressing terrible now with my own money like my next birthday my I spent my birthday money and I bought a soundtrack album and I got the soundtrack for uh for Dr Doolittle this would be the 1967 Rex Harrison musical um and that yeah that's the first one that I I bought interesting uh the first album I ever bought was um The Tomorrow Never Die soundtrack I think so I wanted to hear the James Bond theme not the theme of Tomorrow Never Dies I wanted to hear the the main like the theme that's been for James Bond for forever sure yeah it was just it was just out I don't know probably should have bought GoldenEye but that's the one that was in the store um or or was it the Godzilla 99 soundtrack no that might have been the first one I ever owned actually um I think actually the first one I ever bought might have been Pink Floyd The Wall okay which these days not even in my top three Pink Floyd albums I don't think but but it was a good introduction it's probably the one I would still say is the best introduction of Pig Floyd um but yeah somewhere since the next question actually is the first album you own so I'm going to say one of those three I don't remember but um you could you could probably uh just toss it in the air and it's going to be one of those I don't remember Tomorrow Never Dies Godzilla 99 soundtrack or uh uh Pink Floyd The Wall I remember by the way Joe if you'd asked me what my first song was that I'd love to hear on the radio it would have been Rhinestone Cowboy actually okay I mean I I remember listening to it on the radio and stuff um but yeah that's not not really a kid-friendly album I I can say that way now this song was perfect because I would have been what five or six I'm a little bit younger than you a little more than five or six when it came out and I just love that song sure yeah uh I mean I I may still have the lyrics memorized I mean I'm not gonna attempt it now or anything but I probably still have that in my head I will say about your Robin Hood album um when I know or believe that I'm alone in the library uh like in the stairwell or in a bathroom or something I will whistle the music from from that Robin Hood it's a good album it really is yeah but since you mentioned the you liked that was your first song that you liked to hear on the radio mine was uh Smells Like Teen Spirit um never mind would have been the first album I bought but um my parents had a real big problem with the album art um so I had to have a friend uh obtain it for me which did not have that cover art uh it also didn't have lithium for whatever reason he burned the CD and he didn't have lithium on it so it was imperfect um but yeah that was that was the one and by the time I was really into Nirvana that song was almost completely off the radio because it was in that weird limbo between classic and modern rock so you would hear it like maybe once a week and whenever whenever I heard it it was like stop everything listen listen to it smells like teen spirit then go about my day I have no recollection as to what the first song I Really listens to non-stop I know that in high school I didn't go a week without listening to the entire uh album of uh meatloaf spat out of hell well in high school I actually woke up because I had one of the first digital tape player radios that would actually play a song for you to wake up instead of an alarm and I actually had uh the Yes album uh 9012 uh uh I'm gonna say 90125. um uh album uh actually uh but that's not it um uh in my in my in that tape player that woke me up every single morning throughout the high school how furiously annoyed are you now that the that yes's entire cultural um existence is uh JoJo's Bizarre Adventure is it okay yeah uh it's the the intro to roundabout is the uh well actually all of roundabout is the the closing theme to Parts one and two but um that little like the guitar intro is the uh that became a meme on its own so hey at least their grandkids are getting paid so good for them there you go yeah yeah um you two want to talk about the first albums that you owned or is that kind of just wrapped into yeah um soundtracks were popular again I was into Star Wars return the Jedi was the one where actually I I I went to the store looked around picked it up and bought it with my own money that was the first album I remember buying with my amount of money I may have had some albums before that I might have asked for for Christmas or for birthdays or something like that but I remember that one being the first one I I paid for um like that um I could have gotten it because in the cassette and I struggled between the um getting the vinyl or getting the cassette and I went with the the album actually you went with a better choice how often did you skip uh nup yup or yep nup or whatever that song is uh that was at the very end so I could I didn't have to but what I listened to a lot was the one where um Luke is on the um being thrown into the uh the mouth basically oh it drops down and it goes don't don't done and then suddenly it hits and there's it's this a spectacular um um thing going on um Empire Strikes Back which I wanted that one too because that had the emperor's March in it which is [Music] yeah but but Return of the Jedi is where they they uh first introduced the um the emperor's theme the the chorus okay I think so I think that's what it is but yeah that the Luke falling into the so I like that where it does the the trumpet and then it's like it pauses for a second and then it goes into Luke's theme right before he he Force pulls the lightsaber I love that that uh a little bit sorry if no one is aware yet I love the original Star Wars trilogy so let's go to our next one uh the first book that made you cry first book that made me cry I don't know I had my first book that I that I had I ever got the first one he bought yeah I have the first one I bought yeah which was before I could read I don't remember the first I don't think any books ever made me cry Joe the first book that I remember making me cry was uh Johnny Tremaine uh by Esther Forbes it's a historical fiction book uh takes place around the American Revolution main characters uh like a silversmith uh I remember seeing the Disney movie for it yeah yeah um because I think I saw it in school yeah and I'm pretty sure the first book I bought was the uh first Witch World Book uh by by Andre Norton well I'm going to share my screen again because I have the first book I ever owned actually I've ever bought basically and it is this book oh okay sure which explains why I said I couldn't read yet so sure yeah I mean you look at those pictures I mean that's that's half the reason why they had those detailed pictures and then those in the first place yeah I like the ape on the cover the ape with the wings and the cover it reminds me of the flying monkeys from uh Wizard of Oz yeah yeah that's fair oh yeah mine was the ninth book in the Red Bull series the pearls of letra I think now speaking of which um one of the things I mentioned we should have done is the first book you ever checked out the library you guys either want to remember what that is um might have been Willy Wonka in elementary um could have been a Dr Seuss book yeah I don't remember yeah I don't really remember going to a library until I was in high school uh our house was full of books and I belonged to the children's versions of the you know like book of the month club and stuff like that so he had books in the house and I know that like uh the like elementary schools or whatever had a school library but I don't really remember going going to the library to get books until I was in high school and I went to the the public library in Burke Burnett and it's entirely possible that the first book that I checked out was like um Erica Young's fear of flying well I do remember the first book I ever I ever checked out the library and once again it was before I could read sure was this oh nice of course yeah I've never read The Wizard of Oz I've only seen the movie again this is the great illustrations by WWE denzelo they're just fantastic um this by the way is the first Library I ever went to this is um the Bennett major library in downtown Lincoln Nebraska and this is the water park that was next to it that had that sold popcorn and ice cream after we went through the library I think my mother was trying to do phys was trying to do um positive reinforcement about how wonderful libraries were so nice it worked I I you know I like the kind of brutalism of that library but I much prefer the water the water park water whatever whatever thing yeah um before we go into the rest of this list let's go on to our legal firsts that you just sent us today Joe yeah um did you know the first time a woman could open a bank account uh wasn't until 1950 or the 1950s although um well hold on um oh no I misread that uh although in 1950 the number of working women was on the rise they were still not allowed to open a bank account uh they were making their own money but they weren't allowed to have a bank account to save it it wasn't until the 60s when women gained the right to open their own bank account yeah I I was mentioning that I'm watching uh I'm watching Mad Men right now and um that's becoming a major plot point is like women's suffrage and women's rights like just to be able to do all this other stuff and yeah it's really start to see all that stuff that like where it looks modern madman's a really good show it's it's really like the costume design is great but um the fact that it's like women are not taken seriously in the workforce they can't have uh like bank accounts they can't have their houses and their name it's it's really striking yeah that's my plug for Mad Men watch it if you haven't it's really good yeah I I had pulled some of those uh legal firsts just off uh you know uh off the internet and uh I was surprised by how many of them were within my lifetime uh because you we like to think that we're you know a Civilized Nation uh and and we prefer to not think of ourselves as a third world nation with you know horrific systemic issues uh we don't like to think of ourselves that way but you know I mean like anyone that's listening to our broadcast or watching it uh was born before same-sex marriage was legalized because that hasn't even been legal for 10 years now when I was born uh interracial marriage wasn't legal so you know uh and you know we without giving numbers or anything I'm not old you know and uh so so so for these things to come so late uh is sad yeah when you hear stuff like like I I think about my grandfather being uh in World War II or whatever but then I'll I'll hear some stuff where it's like like I'll see a picture of like desegregation and and like the Civil Rights movements and then like you'll see pictures from that stuff but it's not until you see something that's like here's a picture of current Cowboy or Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones fighting desegregation in a picture and the only thing he had to say in defense was it was a different time that makes it feel a lot a lot more recent than just it was you know something that your grandfather or your great-grandfather went through it's like this is a person who's extremely rich with a lot of uh even political power right now like Jerry Jones does a lot of uh political fundraising and donations and stuff in charge of one of the biggest franchises in the country if not the world and it's really shocking and kind of disheartening to to see that that stuff's so fresh in our history on the other hand I'll go to their opposite direction the fact that we've moved so far in such a short period of time people forget the other side of it the fact that people are like you know why aren't things happening more quickly than kind of like have you realized how quickly things have happened in the last 50 years or so yeah yeah that's also a really good point to think of it like it's that can make it seem a little I don't know a little better like the Civil War is only what 160 years ago 150 and some change like that's when you look at the total length of human history that's not long ago if you really think about it yeah 140 yeah yeah in that area oh no you're right you're 150 you're right you're right you're right it is the year 2022 uh it's much later on it's 2023 23 23. my daughter is a year old foreign all right I'm gonna I'm gonna talk about mine and first off I'm hesitant to do this one because I know this is going to become the thumbnail or the uh for the thing um when I was a when I was a young child again most of my answers would be very young um I was really into dinosaurs and so I cut every single dinosaur movie ever and this is the first time watching a movie where dinosaurs weren't the thing that was really enticing me to watch this movie and I didn't quite know what was going on why why was I interested in this this has nothing to do with Dinosaurs this is from the 1977 film The People That Time Forgot and this is Miss Dana Gillespie in that film yeah you know what you've shown me this image before you show me this uh I have where I Carissa and it was it's interesting because I had forgotten about this until I saw the film again and suddenly I had this like a flashback of being like I must been nine at the time or something like that and going oh wow that was the first time I became aware that I was attracted to people well it was yeah the first time you're like oh yeah what hold on yeah that that one it feels like your heart stopped for a second yeah and uh this it did have an effect on me because all throughout the 80s I remember all the various when he had was celebrity crushes and I remember all the celebrity crushes were all British burnetts I don't know why but and then I saw this again I'm like oh that oh yeah that's why okay that's why all my celebrity crushes were were British Burnett actresses during the 1980s okay okay well you've both seen my wife so this is not going to be any any shocker to you that this is uh my first celebrity crush but um my first celebrity crush was uh Alicia Silverstone oh okay which that was a joke she doesn't like a thing like my wife or or even the the types of women that I've dated in the past I don't know um I was built different back then I don't know uh but yeah no I remember uh going home for lunch one day and um I like I was going off to to make food or whatever and like I caught something out of the corner of my eye and I said is that Alicia Silverstone in this movie right now and Hannah was my wife was like yeah it's like oh okay I just sensed it I didn't even see her on the screen I was just like like I had the new type Flash from gundam like there's Alicia Silverstone on the screen right now um that's it that's my whole story my my first celebrity crush as far as I can recall was uh Christy McNichol she was doing a TV series called family and she would run around in her little tracksuit jacket ride on a skateboard and she was just so cool well I'm sure everyone's having a great time listening to a bunch of um old white guys talking about the the women that they have a crush on so let's go into our next category of first first fictional character Crush yeah but just to dive bomb deeper into this subject Bulma from Dragon Ball I'm just gonna say that I couldn't think of like who my first fictional Crush was was like I don't know boom has been around for a while yeah I started watching Dragon Ball when I was in early middle school I think so it's the first time I think I can really like as far back as I can remember um I I think and and I wrote down two answers to that because I actually wrote down my answers um and I think it was either Morticia Adams oh yeah Barbara Gordon I'm stupid yeah it was Morticia foreign how about you Ryan I don't know if I have an answer to this because my imagination was always so much more fruitful than anything that I could see on TV sometimes see that was by the time by the time I was I was I was Crush aged my imagination was going full blast beyond anything I saw on television see this is this is I joked saying Alicia Silverstone but then I I remember I remember Morticia Adams and I say oh that's right there you go um oh here's a this is a fun one what was your first job I got paid for yeah sure I'll I'll give two answers here because it was my first job I actually had is this was interesting This was um the Parks and Recreation Department of my hometown would basically they had a um a thing they do every year where they'd get volunteer kids in and they teach them how to make and manipulate puppets oh and then what they would do is they drive around with a trailer which was a big puppet stage on Wheels basically and we would perform for other smaller kids in the neighborhood and I did that from the age of 13 to the age of 15 I think wasn't paid for it because it was because it was basically it was a way for early teenagers to go do something interesting and stuff like that but looking back on it it was a job I mean I was strictly speaking doing a service for the uh Parks and Recreation Department to some extent and you had to apply skills and oh yeah no it was the first time where the person who was the director of it headed me a a electric saw and go went just looked at me and went yeah go to it and I'm like you're not gonna supervise or anything no how about it that's your first internship yeah uh my first paying job was the summer after that I became a bagger and um yeah I bagged groceries until I got hit by a car stumbled into the uh into the supermarket bloody with my pants ripped just looked at the uh the management thing I just said I quit I think I called my parents to have them come pick me up that'll do it yeah um this is this might come as a surprise I actually have two answers as well this this actually will come as a surprise though my first job was um uh handyman at a uh a uh gardening like potting uh like local owned business uh I worked there for about two months um I started to get kind of sick in the last few like weeks there and the last day I worked there I um I was asked to mow their front lawn and I caught bronchitis pretty much that day like it was it I I went from kind of feeling ill to like I couldn't stand up anymore and then I heard one of the owners uh this this nasty old lady talking about how lazy and worthless I was being so I said you know what I'm out I'll come pick up my last check tomorrow and then I went to the doctor like a week later and they were like yeah you're like you're like this close to pneumonia at the moment so yeah we need to get you on antibiotics really bad um then after that a few months later I started working at movie gallery um or Hollywood Video whatever they call it uh most places had a Hollywood Video and my uh Hometown we had a movie gallery same company or whatever but I worked there for a year and a half two years maybe um I actually I didn't mind it but it was really dull and the customer base and my small Hometown was really uh cruel and argumentative so yeah I didn't I didn't quite enjoy that job as much as I thought it would I uh I did I mean I did babysitting and lawn mowing and stuff like that I and I uh started my own neighborhood newsletter but I know subscriptions for uh but my first paycheck job I worked uh fast food I worked at Hardee's [Music] um like as soon as I could when I was 16 or whatever and I worked there for a couple of months and then um stopped because I was doing a summer session of college I was still in high school but there was a thing that I was able to do back then where I was getting college credit hours over the summer and I didn't think I could do that and work at the same time first time I ever had a Carl's Jr Hardee's whatever Burger I took a picture of it and posted it on Facebook and I said this is they should call this hardly a burger it was a small Burger that's the whole thing I I I got that yeah I gotcha yeah um so I'm sorry that you had had that experience I mean I am no longer a paid representative so I can't really compensate you for that yeah the rest of this is gonna be me telling you my grievances over my very small Burger my first my first and only experience with Carl's Jr Hardee's um the age of your when you had your first kiss yeah if we're going for me but that's the one I remember as my first kiss I don't remember past that and I did but I have no idea that's that's what stuck my mind as my first kiss to somebody on the lips first make out was uh like that that was on a high school bus after a band thing and I was 13 I think um otherwise yeah like five kindergarten like little kid kiss if we're going that far back yeah I I don't have a memory of that and honestly I don't think I I did that I I think my first was like freshman year of high school I was like 14 or 15. yeah yeah the freshman year yeah that seems like the yeah uh uh live concert first live concert in wheel let me share mine was the big generator Tour by yes in 1988. okay wow very nice Joe that was a oh sorry that was that was I didn't have a poster for it that's the that's the t-shirt that I actually I didn't buy that t-shirt but that's the style of t-shirt I bought my my first live concert was life Garrett who is who is probably better known for his acting and nowadays isn't even known for that um and uh I I bought a a 45 record album uh a little single 45 of of his hit song come back when you grow up a girl um yeah it was in it was like 1980 yeah hmm oh I went to a lot of uh live like local shows like local heavy metal Rock whatever stuff with my dad and I highly regret it uh when I was in high school it was like 14 15. definitely a bad choice um first real real band that I saw live probably was um I took um my current wife then girlfriend to um RiverFest in Little Rock um oh no I went to I went to um American Idol um with the year they had that Chris Lambert got the second place I think with an ex-girlfriend um that's whatever it's American Idol who cares uh uh first one that I can that I can think through is like really like I finally gone to a live show yeah it was a Riverfest it was like I don't know 2013 2014 maybe I can't remember exactly when but we saw Chicago uh The Wallflowers um bunch of bunch of uh really neat bands there um we actually got to see uh Chicago play um uh what's it called the inspiration is that the song yeah uh yeah yeah we got to see that live uh You're the Inspiration that's it um so that was the song that my wife walked down the aisle to uh whenever we got married so yeah that one was a very very important first show or technically for a show for me um but yeah a few that's the one that I would most prefer to consider my first uh live show though I was gonna say I I have seen better concerts than that one but but but that that was the first yeah the first big one yeah uh that same year I also saw Jethro Tull I saw rush I saw Pink Floyd I saw um I think that was everyone I'd love to have seen Pink Floyd back then I mean I wasn't born but one of the worst nights of my life everyone else um dropped out of seeing it with me so I went there alone uh my car stalled out because there was a three mile backup to get into Texas stadium to see the uh to see Pink Floyd my car overheated and I had to push it off to the side basically um and I had to walk the rest of the way in I stood up late and then I had to walk all the way back to my uh to my car again hopefully get it fueled up with water again hopefully it started again it did I didn't get home until about 4 a.m on a school night my mom was beside herself about it yeah I'm surprised you're still among the living really uh yeah that that sounds like an overall terrible experience was was did you enjoy what part of the concert you saw I did um now there was a haze and funny smell throughout the entire um Stadium at the time so that that may have been why I enjoy it more and didn't kind of got to relax after that harrowing experience before that sure yeah must have been the recreation of the trial but I was only 17 when I did that too if I remember right well yeah uh we're gonna we're gonna step aside and go back to another legal first and this one's just mind-boggling uh same-sex did not become same-sex marriage should not become legal until 2015. yeah I that's basically yesterday um it's frustrating and really saddening especially that we've seen some politicians in very very recent like months say that that they find that to be to have been a mistake uh that's just horrible and dehumanizing and disheartening but it's basically codified into law right now so it's I I hope that we never go back to that time yeah what was the first type of pet you had my first pet that was actually ours because we had we had uh access to like a neighborhood pit when I was younger it's like just this dog like like in the Disney Lady and the [ __ ] he just roamed around and everywhere he went somebody fed him and you know like that uh but the first pet that was ours was a was a border collie oh that we got from like the uh from the shelter those things are uh those things require a lot of space to run around to be really happy yeah and we did not have a lot of space uh at the time we were in a townhouse apartment uh so we had a relatively small yard um but uh that that that dog was mostly an inside dog uh we are we're actually also up north then we were in Ohio and uh so so mostly just stayed inside hung out on the couch and stuff just went outside when it was necessary but yeah yeah uh my first was if you attack my first first was three tetras which is a type of fish in an aquarium named Huey Dewey and Louie oh perfect um it was no it was not perfect as a young child that was they did not meet my emotional needs so a year later we got a um a Shelby uh Golden Retriever mix wow two very cute my mom's raised pit bulls forever so that's all the pets I had when I was a kid were all pitbulls hmm yeah not the not the cute kind either with the big fluffy ears because or the fluffy ones because my mom liked to show dogs and yeah they're not as cute when they're mutilated like that it's it's amazing how mutilation reduces cuteness yeah yeah wouldn't you think wouldn't you isn't that kind of crazy how mutilation can can make things not quite cuddly and cute anyway uh what's the first did we did we say first movie that we remember seeing did we say that no no we haven't yet I'll start because I've got my shared screen thing okay uh first movie I remember seeing was the television premiere of this film and I was obsessed with it um so cool I also the first movie I saw the theater which I'll do as well real quick yeah there shouldn't come to any surprise I I actually had to go back and actually look at all of the uh all of the various films and when they came out and I'm pretty sure this is the first film I went to see in the theater ah actually I take that back this is the first film I saw in the theater this is the film I wanted to see that is that is a good one remember this looked awesome yeah this looks stupid that looks lame uh actually the one the edit of that that someone did of uh Seinfeld is I think a much better poster um but my dad said no we're gonna take a Star Wars uh we're not going to take you to Sinbad in the eye of the tiger and I was like oh that's not what I wanted grad uh first movie that I both remember watching and that I saw in the theater for the first time was Jurassic Park and I think I was three that was also a mistake uh apparently I threw popcorn and some lady's hair in front of me I went down the aisle telling people to shush uh uh I was told that I uh made a condescending noise when uh Samuel L Jackson said hold on to your butts no one should have taken me to see that film at three there's a Samuel L Jackson gets his arm ripped off and you see it dangling bloodied on a fence a kid's film it's got dinosaurs in it should have taken me to see Tammy in the T-Rex uh my my dad took me to see jaws when I was like 10. okay so that cap yeah that tops it uh well I will say that the first movie I ever saw at the drive-in theater this would have been when I was eight Damon omian okay too I I I I had a better Drive-In experience than than that then but the first movie that I remember seeing it was was at a drive-in and it was like I guess it was probably during the summer when they were showing old movies you know and it was a Disney double feature and I don't remember which order they were in but it was uh Alice in Wonderland and uh 101 Dalmatians um the first movie that I know that I saw in a theater and honestly there were probably ones prior to this that I saw with my family when I was younger but the first one that I remember seeing in the theater was Doc's Savage man of bronze oh that's actually okay yeah and and uh we we like went to see it as part of a family friend's birthday celebration all right so I I I have a an image in my head of of people in the audience like Googling this stuff and being like what are they talking you almost got me doing that um what is the story behind your first scar okay I've I've got mine I have a tiny scar on my heal the heel of my palm here uh and that's that's the oldest one that I remember where it came from uh I was about eight years old and I fell on a trail uh in at Flint Mountain and and sliced my hand open on a rock oh yeah I don't know what my first scar was I have a scar on here but that that's basically from a little pull top that I remember scarring up but I used to skin my knees every summer as a kid and probably got some scars from that I also remember the first time I went to the hospital because of an injury I had they had to pull a like a three inch splinter out of my leg when I was like four or five so um that probably counts sure yeah yeah yeah um I can't remember which of these came first so we'll just say both of them um I was talking to a friend and like I think I was eight or seven or something I was really really young and I turned my face directly into like one of those uh the push door locks whatever and I got like a really deep scar right here under my eye I don't even know how it got like how it's scarred like that but I still have it the other I have uh I'm not going to raise my middle finger to the audience because that would as funny as that would be am I gonna do it um I have a scar on this finger here where I was watching the Transformers movie and I had my feet up on the entertainment center and the giant TV we had felt directly on me and I remember trying to get up and run away from it and it fell directly on my back and somehow it scratched right across my my middle fingers so um foreign I still really like the Transformers movie for what it's worth but uh yeah I'll never forget that yeah I'm not sure which of those came first but yeah they're both pretty vivid what is the thing you bought with your first paycheck I'm gonna do this uh to be more professorial well I'll start with me because my answer is kind of boring I'm pretty sure I put my first check of paycheck directly into the bank it didn't spin on anything yeah I mean I did the same thing but uh I um I think I bought the the remake of the first Star Ocean video game on PSP pretty sure that's what I bought with my first uh paycheck still like that game a whole lot too but yeah I'm fairly positive this may not be the thing that I did actually first spend money on from from my paycheck but the thing that I remember buying with with my my paycheck was a pair of shoes um not for work just shoes that I liked that I thought were cool um I think they were British Knights um and they were fairly expensive to me at the time anyway well of course the first thing that you buy always feels like this this giant like colossal pile of money that you're putting down for a good yeah I do remember the first thing I bought with my allowance when I was a kid oh yeah and that is once again I'm going to share what's this oh nice that that guy's a star now I've seen him in a movie let's see what's the first thing you do when you go home when you get home what's the first thing that you do if you do anything consistently take off my shoes yeah uh I I that's one of the first things but usually the first thing I do is take all the stuff out of my pockets simultaneously yeah but yeah I like like I'll take off my watch and you know take out my wallet and phone and keys and yeah and then kick off the shoes then the next thing for me is check the mailbox in front and then I go about my business whatever I'm doing at home sure yeah it's that that is a thing and it's it's it's a it's a sad thing because I I don't actually like wearing shoes I would rather be barefoot but I have a really soft sensitive feet so I can't do that and the way that you make yourself not have soft sensitive feet is to go around in dangerous places without your shoes on run around develop them into so that you have your a whole callus on your foot you know um and and I'm not I'm not willing to do that when I was a child my parents had a gravel driveway you could you could bounce bullets off the soles of my feet I mean uh my daughter and give her a kiss on the cheek oh and then I go find food like if we have to cook something oh like I'll hold I'll hold her with one hand and like go through the fridge and you know depending on whatever it is that we're cooking that night I'll start getting getting it ready yeah then I put her down and she cries and screams at me do you want to say the thing you mentioned to me the other day of oh yeah uh yesterday we took her to her one-year appointment and um we're trying to get her to respond to her name more often um so I mentioned to the doctor that like we we try to say her name and get her to like come over here and do stuff and like you know um acknowledge that that's what her name is and the doctor said oh no no but I can tell from the way that she like like her mannerisms and stuff just now she did hear you she's just ignoring you she is your daughter yeah really that's I looked at I looked at Hannah and my wife and I said which one of us did she get that from and she was like ah could be either way yeah it's a toss-up uh oh this is fun what's the first thing you learned to cook I have no idea I mean I know it was cooking by the time I was uh freshman or sophomore in college but I have no idea what what how I learned it or or what I was doing to get to that point omelette omelette yeah the first thing that uh that I ever cooked for my wife too is uh our first date our first date I whipped up an omelette I was like here you're gonna love this and she loved it that's great and now look there learn how to cook an egg dish that's the that's the one advice I could give for you cook something that's really good and involves eggs well now eggs are expensive so I know how weird is that yeah it's yeah uh I I do know that uh eggs are one of the first things that I learned to cook uh my grandmother my my mom's mom uh got me started cooking she and her husband my grandfather were both pretty good in the kitchen and I would go when I was little I would go to their house sometimes before and sometimes after school both um and like in the afternoon we'd have marienda and then sometimes if I was there for a long time uh they'd be starting to cook supper and uh they and So eventually she started teaching me how to do things uh and and most things were cooked in a cast iron skillet and started with butter um and uh yeah uh egg eggs was a like and not scrambled but like just a sunny side up Aid oh wow I think is the first thing that I learned and then like right after that uh like tortilla soup that's good too you know what only recently I I realized and discovered how my mom made uh egg sandwiches every time I tried to make a deck sandwich I would just like it would just turn out like a flat scrambled egg that was just in one piece and then I realized like I guess I asked her or something like really like very recently uh she was like well just don't crack the egg when you pour it in there first just let it Harden and then you crack the egg and I was like wait hold on so I did it like the next day and I was like oh I didn't even think to do that I must be stupid uh we have two other firsts before we get to our last one that Ryan actually introduced it was the first what is your first franchise that you got into or the First Media property you got into I guess you could do both of them if you want but they're for me it's the same thing it's a final fantasy the video game series definitely like I got into that when I was uh third grade maybe um I still love Final Fantasy it's definitely taken a huge dive in quality in the last decade or two but uh I I still really enjoy um most of that franchise we're doing franchises okay yeah uh when I was a kid I was really into superheroes as you saw by the first uh um uh first book I bought I was also really into dinosaurs as I mentioned before so when I saw this on the television I knew this was everything this was like crack cocaine foreign because it was it's superhero alien dinosaurs yeah interesting yeah I like gloop I would draw pictures of these and post them all over my house I would write stories about them uh you know yeah that's awesome um I I know I know that I was into Comics before I was really into like um well I mean that's not true I I mean it is true but I I was aware of uh uh franchise things in television early on uh really as reruns but um you know the The Batman series The Adam West live action um I know that I was into that I got into Comics basically as soon as I could read um and was mostly into Spider-Man and the X-Men the first TV that the first film franchise that I remember getting into uh is Star Wars and I had wondered if it was Star Wars or Star Trek because I did see the original movies of both of those in the theater but I looked it up and I saw that A New Hope came out in 77 and Star Trek motion picture came out in 79. so it would it would have been Star Wars yeah so that's that's that's interesting because I know you're much more of a Star Trek I I am I am well uh and uh here's the thing uh and this is and and this may help explain that um I feel like that Star Wars the Star Wars universe is probably more realistic I like Star Trek better because it it is actually more hopeful there's there's there's less war less political upheaval uh and and Star Trek than in Star Wars well Star Wars does also have um religious ESP ninjas well sure but you could argue that Star Trek does with like the Vulcans and stuff oh yeah okay I mean you could make an argument for it but uh yeah I I I appreciate I appreciate hopeful fiction I feel like I do too actually um I started going through some like I started reading a lot of manga a couple of years ago like I've always Read Manga a lot but like a few years ago I was like you know what I'm just gonna like save some money and just get into a whole lot of stuff and just read some of the classics and I realized that I was really really bouncing off of a lot of the stories that are like needlessly dark or like edgy or whatever and I've said before berserk is one of my favorite the stories ever but berserk is very hopeful like that's kind of the theme of it is it's it's very dark and the world is very dour but there's like there is an undercurrent of like being hopeful and and like looking forward to the future and kind of fighting for that hopefulness uh whereas something like um there was another manga series called good night pun pun that everyone just just loves and goes nuts over and I read like a chapter of it and I was like this is this is just way too much in in that direction of like just dark and edgy and brooding and I just I couldn't handle it yeah only you would say berserk is is optimistic it's we could get into this yeah we're getting toward the end of our time yeah we're very much leading into the hour mark so uh I'll just go on to our last first that we've got listed what was your first under undergraduate college course which is weird because um I I didn't take one undergrad College course I guess I only passed one but uh uh yeah I didn't just take one as an undergrad you mean you mean in a semester you you had more than one at a time exactly and when I went to I went to school I was at the University of Texas at Austin and pretty much I didn't I couldn't take anything that I wanted to take I was required to take certain classes right and all I remember is it was analog at the time you actually had to show up at a stadium and try to find the table with that particular class and see if there are any classes left at times that were actually usable for your for your schedule so it was more like what is available finally and by the time I got there it was it was literally because the Freshman got the last choices too so literally what's left there was very little Choice whatsoever in my freshman classes I the first college credit that I got was not for a class um I was well not for a specific class I got two elective hour credits of theater or going on a theater tour of uh New York uh when I was a junior in high school it was done through Eastern New Mexico University uh and and yeah they gave you two credit hours uh for for going on the trip with them oh if we're talking about that then I was advanced placement math advanced placement English advanced placement then uh the that semester the the the semester of college that I did when I was still in high school I did intro to computer science and psychology so that's a fun slate yeah um I took like like 12 credit hours and I passed one class I think my first semester and it was uh intro to government or something um I actually failed English I um I didn't want to do the paper it was like uh it was like do a deep dive on the two well hold on it was 2007 and for some reason it was like do a deep dive on the presidential candidates and for some reason like I told myself like if I do this like I have a feeling I'm going to like like I don't want to get boxed in with like like making a whole political argument my first semester at this new College like I don't know I was really I was really like hesitant and and kind of uncomfortable about it so I just didn't do the assignment and I went to turn in something uh for the professor and she said well you can just toss this out because you failed the class so I was like okay so I took it with another teacher and made like a b or something but uh yeah I just flat out like I was like I don't wanna I don't want to do that assignment I don't feel comfortable doing it at the times times have changed uh yeah working at the University now we are basically we're doing everything we can to return retain students yeah a lot of us when we were in college they were doing everything they can to flunk students out of classes yeah and they I mean they this this professor retired the year or maybe even that semester after I I took that course so like she was she was very much an Old Guard type of Professor and uh yeah you everyone listening if you're a student here you're very lucky because you have a lot of professors who really appreciate you and enjoy having you in their class and are doing their their utmost to help you uh succeed in your life so because significant change that's happened over the last few decades it used to be anybody who wanted to go to college could yeah but they would flunk two-thirds to class basically is what they would do yeah I did want to slip in one more pop culture first question all right if you have watched any of the Doctor Who who was your first a doctor Tom Baker I mean I mean um I lived in Dallas uh uh um k k e r a was the first uh station to actually show Doctor Who in the United States and it was it was a Tom uh it was a Tom Baker years that being said my favorite is actually pertly um oh okay solid Choice yeah uh I dated a girl uh who was super into Doctor Who and got me to watch the first two Chris Eccleston Eccleston yeah episodes of Doctor Who and then I said um I'm not really into Doctor Who that much and I never watched another episode okay it's not for everyone yeah I'm not being disrespectful I'm just saying I tried it sure I watched two episodes no that's I mean no that's fair I I have watched some of the things that you have said that you're very much into and I have had less enthusiasm I'm I'm surprised you got through the first Gundam movie I did get through that I also watched the first episode of Chainsaw man oh I've not watched any more of it okay that's very fair because um that's uh although I'm shocked to see that it's like the most popular anime of the season right now because I thought that it was going to turn away a whole lot of people and apparently not yeah uh my my first doctor was also Tom Baker um and he's pretty much the one that I look at as being my doctor uh even though when I talk about things that are quintessentially the doctor to me he's not the person that I talk about I actually talk about Davidson uh but Baker had a quote uh during his tenure that's appropriate for this episode which was first things first but not necessarily in that order okay do do we want to talk about anything else do we want to mention anything that's going on in town or do we want to just skip it um well I don't know what's going on in town right now I I if anyone does though right here all right
