1jr2MmO_EYQ | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1jr2MmO_EYQ | High Commissioner Dialogue with Ben Ferencz | ladies and gentlemen a good day to you i am zed rad al-hussein the u.n high commissioner for human rights today with the distinct privilege of interviewing a friend an inspiration a teacher ben ferenz who is known very well to all of the international criminal lawyers who are applying their trade to bring justice to victims ben as many of you know was the chief prosecutor of the einsatzgruppen case and he succeeded in convicting all 22 defendants brought before the nuremberg tribunal he also devoted the early part of his life to supporting the victims of those enormous and colossal atrocities visited upon the jewish nationals of europe but not just them the roma and others who had suffered at the hands of the nazis and in subsequent years led a campaign for the creation of an international criminal court and that's when i had the honor of meeting him many years ago so ben welcome and thank you for agreeing to this interview well thank you very much i appreciate the honor of being able to sit next to the high commissioner for human rights thank you and to be given such a warm welcome thank you ben so can i begin uh first of all by stating the reasons for this interview go back to the universal declaration of human rights we will be celebrating its 70th anniversary in december along with the 70th anniversary of the adoption of the genocide convention the day before the universal declaration was adopted i was up in hyde park with my children back in the summer and i visited the fdr home franklin d roosevelt and eleanor roosevelt's home up there and in the museum i saw a copy of the universal declaration and it was the kassan draft and what struck me ben is the first line the first line of that draft of the universal declaration was was stark and it said ignorance and contempt of human rights have been the principle among the principal causes of sufferings of humanity you knew kassan the universal declaration is often portrayed as a aspirational idealistic document but like you kassan had experienced war firsthand what do you remember about him and and do you think that this view of the world that if you reject human rights you open up the possibility of much wrongdoing beginning with with war which you have spent most of your life if not all of your life fighting against well thank you very much for the question it's quite comprehensive by coincidence not coincidence i always carry with me what i have now in my pocket the universal declaration of human rights i have it in my bag which i'm sitting on together with the united states constitution and the us the the united nations charter and those have been my guides and i recognized immediately that the original draft is not in the final text exactly exactly but now to answer your questions rene kassar was a visionary he had experienced the war he knew the horrors of war as a decent human being he recognized the need for universal principles because the world war covered many countries but not the whole universe and we are all members of one small planet and we should deal with the problems in a planetary sense i wrote a little booklet with that title planet hood no longer think in terms of neighborhood or nationhood but think in terms of we are all inhabitants of one planet so he grasped that then of course listing all the various rights takes a book and of course some of them are a little bit ambiguous in just general principles but it's a crying out um for what i now call prohibition of crimes against humanity it's an appeal of humanity to law and i use that phrase yes uh and i was inspired by people like rene casa who were following those guidelines and they were realists but they were also very aware of the horrors of war having experienced it as a witness or the victim and so they were able to feel deeply about that and i very much regret that this universal declaration of human rights unfortunately is being violated in more of the principles than it's being accepted yes you're absolutely right the the text that i quoted was redrafted and became the second paragraph of the preamble what strikes me of course is when you look at the world today sadly alas notwithstanding everything we've tried to achieve that you've devoted your life to we still see some terrible crimes being committed in northern rakhine and myanmar what we've seen in syria what we've seen in other parts of the world in libya and yemen in the democratic republic of the congo and is this not a a validation of the view that ignorance and contempt of human rights provides then for wrongdoing on a massive scale and if we can only have a recognition that we as humans as you said planet earth that we are we belong to one team team human beings uh that only if we have this vision can we keep the world safe but the idea you know put forward by the president of the united states but uh not just him others that there is a first america first you know these chauvinistic nationalisms it sort of in one way betrays the sense that we all have universal rights that ought to be respected by all governments well you have touched upon the crucial problem facing humankind today and that is the conflict between what you've expressed here as human rights uh and the glorification of non-human rights the glorification of war making what we are trying to do is to reverse something which has been glorified for centuries centuries ever since little david goliath and i had with a rock and became the king thereby if that were all the condition of the world today i wouldn't object somebody in the head with a rock but it's even worse than your characterization because the capacity to kill human beings has grown faster than our capacity to meet their urgent and vital and justified needs and so we stand on the verge of having used nuclear weapons which are now obsolete because we're in cyberspace and from cyberspace i have it on very reliable authority secret message to me by american general 15 years ago so i can talk about it now we have the capacity to cut off the electrical grid on planet earth imagine what this planet would look like if somebody in cyberspace turns ahead and says no more washington dc all the lights go out the hospital stop working the water stops flowing no traffic lights everything stops how long would it take and i asked this general who was confiding this to me many years ago how long would it take for everybody to die yeah and he said well i'm not aware of any studies to that effect but i assume that it would depend upon how much water they had if they had water they could probably live for about a week if they didn't have water then of course it would be much shorter yes so there it was an awareness that we have the capacity to kill everybody on this planet that's right and become like all the other billions of planets lifeless in space that's right we have the capacity man to create it don't we have the capacity to stop it and to stop creating it that's the issue that's right that's right i mean there's this odd paradox isn't there where the more the world relies on technology the closer we bring ourselves to that very possibility that if used malevolently we return ourselves to the stone age and worse as you said to human extinction essentially there are other returns to the stone age i recently read the position of the united states the strategic position of the united states with regard to one piece it was signed by the secretary of defense but it spoke come true for the country and there were two major points which struck me in that i only read the 20-page summary the pro itself is much longer but i got the point main point was make sure we have enough budget to cover the needs of the pentagon that's point number two and the second one struck me as being most interesting he said also have to be sure to win the war i paused when i read that and it appeared at least four or five times in the report i said to my win the war what do you win who wins a war does it mean you kill everybody else you kill millions of people and you say we won including millions of our own and we say we won the war the whole concept and this is the secretary of defense i'm sure he's a very fine gentleman he served in the marines all of his life he was trained to think we have to put in the budget and win the war um and he's a noble hero he is the secretary of defense our highest ranking officer and he speaks certainly for at least half the people in the country so how do we turn that around you say you cannot win a war everybody loses in the war the only winner in war's death and i have seen it in action and they have seen it in action don't they see the connection and it's getting worse and more dangerous all the time that's why now as i'm approaching very soon my 100th year yeah i'm still trying to stop that and reverse that because it'll take a long time but you now have gone to the heart of the issue that intelligent people intelligent human beings can rationalize actions and policies which would seem to be which would seem to be appalling in their consequences and yet it sort of fits a certain logic i'm always reminded and i whenever whenever i watch charlie chaplin's speech in the great dictator at the end and he says the world doesn't need more clever people it needs kind people it needs people who care who are empathetic when you were prosecuting the the 22 defendants and perhaps you tell us why it was only 22 when there were 3 000 killers who who ravaged eastern europe and why did you select those 22 but among them were some highly educated individuals otto rash had two doctorates in law and economics otto olendorf had two degrees as well um and paul blobel had had at least he practiced architecture so he was a a seemingly refined individual and and yet they were capable of the most heinous barbarian barbarity and blah blah of course baby yar and and um the killing of children the 90 children and um i think it was called that circa the the um uh i might have to remind myself here uh the bill at zverka massacre so how do we reconcile the fact that these are intelligent human beings that are capable of committing such outrage you have combined several difficult questions your presentation the first one that struck me is uh how do you rationalize law making and i've given you the quotation from the highest officer in the united states it's something which we have glorified for centuries america is a great democracy it's inevitable that there will be differences of opinion and it's as it should be and all of the opinions are entitled to respect uh it doesn't mean you have to follow them or you have to agree with them if you think they're wrong and that's the condition we have in the world today with the united states being a principal leader in the thinking and acting on these principles it's not that the people who glorify war are evil people or stupid people they are not they are patriotic people carrying on what they can seem to be a great tradition and giving us the power that we have now to control the world uh and deal with it as we see fit and those who are not fit to be cared for will just push them aside that's a mentality which has existed in many countries it existed in nazi germany of course where inferior people want to be exterminated useless eaters they call them habitual criminals and so on so we have a basic philosophical problem and how do you deal with that it's deeply felt you cannot end it by saying i think you're wrong the same well i think you're wrong you're a dreamer you're an idealist you want to you're reaching for the moon to which my reply is haven't you heard we landed on the moon and as as distant as it may seem i think it's possible and i don't agree with those who take let's call it the conservative view i don't share that because i see the impact of it on the people and the impact is enormous you're killing millions of innocent people who never did anybody any harm the current system current system is if you don't agree the heads of state don't agree president or whatever it is doesn't agree with another one what do they do they send young people over to kill the other young people whom they don't even know who may have done them no harm who may have never harmed anybody who live in a country you probably may never have heard of and they kill each other until they get tired of killing each other then they pause each side declares victory then they start again and they continue killing each other and they spend all their money on improved weapons to kill more people instead of using it to meet the legitimate concerns of the people who are so distressed by their living conditions that they cry out in in panic and in fear help help us and we'll commit all kinds of acts which we call terrorism in an effort to improve their own condition so instead of using the funds to help them eliminate their justified complaints we use it to create more weapons to kill more people that is crazy in my opinion i may be a nut but that is totally criminally insane and that is the policy followed today not only by the united states but many of its allies and other countries so that's the world in which we live and you ask the question all right benny boy how do we change that if you want a one-word answer it's slowly but that's really a cop-out because there is no quick answer to it and i am an optimist people ask me are you a pessimist or an optimist i say i am a realist as a pessimist i see all these legitimate complaints and they are legitimate it's crazy what we do as i've just sympathized simplified but explained it it's totally insane what we do it's murderous it's genocidal it's suicidal it's whatever it is is terrible and there however i move to the realest point of view the realest point of view is for example we had nuremberg which said law must apply equally to everyone that aggressive war is the supreme international crime yes that crimes against humanity deserve to be deterred by punishment this was hailed by the whole world after a hundred million people or 200 million people got killed nobody knows how many people die in war there's nobody i've been participating in shoveling them into a ditch and how many die of heartache and how many did i have disease nobody knows but we had progress since those days and the progress and these are part of the faults which still exist in the system but we do have we had nuremberg we have international courts which people told me when i began work on this 70 years ago they said it'll never happen ben it'll never happen and i said you're probably right but it should happen and it's right and i'm going to work for it anyway and we've made enormous progress i agree now let me give you one example of the enormous progress yes you mentioned the einsatzgruppen case i was 27 years old that was my first case i had never been in a courtroom before i was 27. i worked on trying to create a permanent international court in recognition when that court got its first international case in the hague they called me to do the closing remarks for the prosecution i was 92. that told me several things first of all somebody had been listening and it's happened and it's gone forward second takes a long time yes and it doesn't mean we've gotten perfect justice in a perfect court we haven't we have all kinds of problems but they are being overcome and i see the progress and when i see the progress i get optimistic no i think i mean this is you know what you've just said ben is so important and you made me think of isaiah berlin's short credo the speech he gave in 1994 at the university of toronto because he said what you were saying he said beware of the quiet philosopher who creates a philosophical ideal and to reach that utopia you may have to clear the path of a few obstructions including people who opposed the idea and and and he said in in the speech the search for a single overarching idea because it is the one and the only true one for humanity invariably leads to coercion and then to destruction blood eggs are broken but the omni is not in sight there are only an infinite number of eggs human lives ready for the breaking and in the end the passionate idealists forget the omelet and just go on breaking eggs so these are people who have sort of rationalized that there is something to be attained by violence and what you're saying is violence brings no good and as humanity we need to graduate to a point where war becomes unthinkable not as a tool for achieving certain objectives because ultimately in itself it engenders so much criminal activity that it has to be basically rendered unlawful completely and as you said aggression is the supreme international crime you've gotten the point he hasn't gotten the point i'm not just breaking eggs i'm trying to save the planet yes i'm trying to save the lives of all the people on this planet yes and so our hope lies with the young people the young people who will recognize that what i say is true and that their lives are in danger and increasing danger every day as we perfect the cyberspace weapons we still don't know what to do with the nuclear waste because that will kill everybody by itself and as our capacity to kill increases and our concern for human rights and human needs is brushed into second place they got the sequence wrong you'll never get to the second place unless you reverse the first one get rid of it because that's what's causing the problem and if we took the money we spend not only the united states but other nations on killing machines killing weapons and use it to meet fundamental human rights maternity rights the right of a mother to to feed her children uh the right of a person to go to school the right of taking care of health taking care of old people if we use that money for those purposes there wouldn't be the kind of discontent which makes them determined to kill and die for their particular cause can i can i go uh ben to another passion of yours not just the search for justice the end to all war but to the protection and the justice done to victims in the form of restitution trying to you know create for them a semblance of some form of reconstruction of their former lives one of the things that has been troubling me a great deal is that when you have a judicial process where alleged wrongdoings have been have been highlighted and charges have been pressed is that in the context of the trials when you see a defendant express no remorse and you've spoken about this and i wish you'd convey to the audience that what it was like to sit with otto olander or otto olendorf when you see no remorse the the victims themselves for them the pain must be even deeper to see someone presented with all the evidence unassailable the argument is you you concluded your your your arguments in two days and yet they refuse all the stubble stubborn refusal to believe that they have done anything wrong it it must create deep pain for the victims and and i'll get to another question i'll ask in a few minutes but if first of all you can convey to us what it was like to talk to him for a few minutes and then um what do you think we could do to have in place a system where people recognize their wrongdoing if you're a victim of of the most of the most superficial sort of wrongdoing you'd like to see the person say sorry that they've done you wrong and they apologize for it when the crimes are colossal you really want to see that and when it isn't forthcoming it hurts i would imagine but if you could convey that well i could convey that very simply by simply giving your viewers my website the website is my name benforens.org everything on it is free you can plagiarize it you can copy it you can print it you can burn it if you like um and that answers or tries to answer the questions would you pack together in such a compact pack that i don't know where to begin so let me begin by giving you a quick overview and see if i can remember uh some of the specific points the quick overview is the outline of my life i was born in poverty in transylvania which doesn't exist my sister was born in the same bed she's a hungarian i was born in the same bed a year and a half later i'm a romanian by birth we fled to the united states to escape poverty and persecution in transylvania which no longer exists yes came to the united states we were lucky my father who had been trained as a shoemaker discovered that they don't wear boots in new york there are no cows in new york and he was lucky to be given the opportunity to live in a cellar if he became the janitor for the house and he became the janitor in a dungeon in hell's kitchen and that's where my life in america begins where the walls were wet because we lived under the foundation of the house from there i jumped quick to went to a special school i was a gifted boy i didn't know what a gifted boy was i never gave me any gifts when i went to city college i applied to the harvard law school for some reason they accepted me the first exam on criminal law i got a scholarship to the harvard law school and i finished my education the war was already on i was trying to get into the military service they wouldn't take me i was too sure that i wouldn't see right in any case eventually i would get it as a private i'd finish my law school i had passed my bar exam i was assigned the army with all their intelligence had done the research for a book on war crimes i knew all about war crimes so they made me a private in the 115th aaa gun battalion which had 150 millimeter cannons built to shoot down airplanes we did shoot down airplanes most of them unfortunately were either british or american but we didn't hit a couple of germans i guess um so that's my educational background prepare me for life to be okay and it starts in the army and i see the horrors of war but i see them up close very close not only you know people dying and come but i landed on the beaches of normandy you find bodies floating in the water face down wearing the american uniform the tanks mired in the mud trying to go through i went through the marginal line the siegfried lion i crossed the rhine on a pontoon bridge driving a jeep final battle of the bulge this was all part of my life but then toward the end of the war as we were already occupying german-held territory my assignment carrying out a promise made by roseville churchill and stalin that there would be war crimes trials for the atrocities being committed which were well known uh in the united states and certainly in germany as well we'd promised more on them they were going to be trials they didn't know how to begin they went to this harvard professor i had done the research for his book on war crimes he said find benny he's out there somewhere so they tapped me on the shoulder i was there by that time promoted they recognized my talent to a corporal and the same as hitler and the same as napoleon and they transferred me out to the judge advocate section and the colonel said to me what's a war crime i said sit down sir i'll explain it so i was the first person in the united states army to deal with war crimes in world war ii yeah and that was it that was the war crimes branch pretty soon we began to get a few others not many and my job was to go out first the allied flyers cases flyer had been shut down he was almost invariably beaten to death by the german mob on the ground sometimes he wasn't he was dead at a farmhouse the soldier was away to the war the widow or the wife was there was glenn to have help he was treated relatively well most of the time the mob got out of him beat him to death i would go out get the people together tell the burglarizer whatever official i could get we had occupied the town bring in everybody who was near that area i want to interrogate them and put them in a room i didn't speak german then i said somebody speaks english sherman you're the translator tell them they're going to write out exactly what happened no lies anybody who lies will be shot oh then said these days the human rights say ben you didn't threaten to shoot them did you i said yeah i shut him to shoot him because what am i going to tell him anybody who lies i'll be i'll cry or i'm going to a naughty naughty i mean i had no other weapon i had to tell them they're going to tell the truth i only want to tell the truth i didn't shoot anybody in fact but i was intending to scare the hell out of them and i did and they sat down and they wrote and then i knew what happened then i go try to catch the guy he invariably fled usually but i had the witnesses and i had the evidence that i had the bloody shirt and and so on so i prepared the dossier i found the bodies yeah that was no fun yeah finding the bodies locating them they had been thrown into a river thrown into a ditch and covered over digging them out in the cold winter the hard ground had to dig them out without coming out with just a foot and a limb is no fun uh and i did that and this was just the flyers it wasn't other prisoners of war it was essentially the downed flyers these were the downed flyers these were the victims and we have pictures of them in the holocaust museum in washington yeah the signal corps came in and took pictures i was so shocked when i saw them i couldn't i couldn't look at them anymore because i recognized my head dug them up and it was a very grim very grim indication of what war is like and uh after that we set up military tribunal trials in the daha concentration camp about which very little is known and it's just as well uh because they were quick trials we'd take all the guards who had been caught in broken walls let's say and uh a duck hull and put them in a room like a basketball court and land them up sit and got different places put a number on them summary of trump yeah a summary trial schmidt he recruited to be in a garden tahoe and one of the other camps where inmates were being beaten regularly were tortured and killed and murdered what have you got to say for yourself oh i was only obeying orders or i wasn't even there was it my grandmother's funeral uh i hear it here for the first time one of them tried that on me uh you know and they then take them out three officers a captain and two lieutenants come back in ten minutes all the defenders are found guilty and sentenced to death and then they were taken to landsberg prison and shot yeah nobody knows about the future of those trials the trials of the allies these were the trials of the allies the french had some significance as well that's right uh but these are the army military trials trials that's right which has got to do with anything he would do about it that's right okay but this is part of my experience so i have the first thing is to end the war as yes our current secretary of defense says we've got to end the war okay the next step what do you do then you want we caught the criminals and try them yes put them on trial prove what had happened right the next step which had also always been forgotten is what do you do for the victims that's right what happens then and in the german instance all the jews have been divested in their property and you could not own property it was illegal it was taken over by somebody else either neighbor bought it or they seized it so the next section was the restitution of unidentified an airless property or if the former owner was alive he would claim it right his family couldn't blame it so the restitution program was part which followed logically after education and stopping the war restitution is to help yes then also compensation for the victims themselves not the property owners but for damage to their health people who are totally disabled they never have could hold a job after that they would be shaking troubling or whatever and they developed all kinds of diseases so you have to set up a program to compensate them how are you going to do that germany is totally defeated we bombed the hell out of them they had no bread for their inhabitants the housing was gone how do you do that that was the biggest achievement of my life i set up those programs and it was not easy it required a great deal of imagination but i operated on a very simple principle which had learned in torts one in harvard law school if you do an injury a wrongful injury you have an obligation to try to make good either repair the injury or compensate the injury with that principle i built on that principle i set up restitution programs for the nazi victims as well as legal aid societies to help them with their complicated claims to prove that they were really there and that they did suffer so itself medical reports etc i set all that machinery up with the staff of about a thousand people i did that acting as the agent of a consortium of the leading jewish organizations of the world who asked me to take on the problem first of getting back the airless and unclaimed property so we could use the proceeds for the benefit of the survivors and that seemed to be a worthwhile thing the nuremberg trials were over i didn't want to stay in germany i had four children born in nuremburg people said how did you manage that well the court was often in recess i stayed on and set up that program i had a staff of over a thousand people working on that in every major office in countries 19 different countries around the world where the victims had fled and that was you asked me what would be the major achievement of my life that was it when i left there after doing it for about 10 years uh the germans had paid out 50 billion dollars to the various partly to israel took the people and partly to the victims themselves and they continued to this day there was no nazi victim jew and non-jew equally there was always the always principle was not out of religious grounds uh there is no nazi victim who is not a beneficiary of that program they have no idea that i was in any way connected with that and that sort of tickled me um all right i'm gonna i'm gonna press you on this point uh then because well the next point is how to prevent it from happening again okay let me but i'm going to sort of swing you uh back to the point that i i raised beforehand because it you know your incredible efforts to provide restitution this form of thinking when we put the international criminal court together there was a very determined attempt to not just seek retributive justice but also to have a victims trust fund and to make it clear that the victims it's not just seeing justice done in terms of the perpetrator but also as you have shown in the context of the suffering of those i mean the jewish nationals of europe but beyond that that they had to be something else when i uh recently a couple of years ago had the honor because it was an honor for me to sit in seoul the republic of korea with the victims of sexual slavery the so-called comfort women and we were talking about what would they need what would what are their demands to ensure that somehow their suffering can be recognized one of them said to me you have to believe me it's it's not the money the money and we are elderly now the money can go to other victims we want to see a genuine recognition of remorse and so i'm going to take you back to that because this idea that you're sitting with one of the chief architects the uh commander of group d otto olandorf and who's just blank-faced and sitting i mean you presented all the evidence it was indisputable and yet no sort of recognition and i want to raise this because i think this is the part in everything that we're doing that is still missing and i think there is an answer but it may not be in the form of sort of the the judicial systems that we have in place the inkling comes from an interview that gita serenity did with otto sorry with france stangle the second commandant of treblinka where in 1971 she was he'd already been convicted by western german court and he was serving his sentence and he was never going to see the light of day again i mean he was he was going to be in detention for the rest of his life and she conducted a series of interviews the last of which she decided instead of asking him questions she would let him talk and she said to him you know what have you learned from all of this and very slowly he began to begin to recognize his guilt but there were long pauses half an hour between each answer and then he sort of said you know i i am guilty and then he sort of uh went on to say of having lived this long in other words he could got himself to the point and he should have said of having murdered millions of people but what gave away the sign that he eventually recognized is his body sagged completely and it's almost like he collapsed inside in courtrooms the world over including in the international criminal court seldom do we see this recognition this contrition which i would argue the victims sort of need to see as well do we need to think like that and and we know you have led the way in having us focus at all of these different components but do we need to because perhaps if we begin to see that we begin to sort of make those who are contemplating wrongful acts of recognizing before they were to conduct these um these or exercise uh or perpetrate these actions make them contemplate these issues in a deeper sense um is there something in in that way of thinking well you've raised a very profound question of human guilt and recognition of it and of course i faced i dealt with that problem as well when we got through with the complicated program a year-long program of compensating individual victims for provable injuries as you would in an insurance case that was prompted and made possible because the german chancellor conrad adenauer a devout catholic made a public speech in which he said terrible crimes have been committed in the name of the german people and it imposes upon us a legal and moral obligation to try to make amends yeah with that opening yeah we began to sit down and negotiate with the germans we said how do we organize this now what does he mean how much who's going to pay how's he going to settle it and so we set up a small group i was counsel to the group i was a key player i was not alone but i was captain of the team most of the time and so we sat down in the hague because we wanted neutral territory we were under careful guard by the secret police of the germans of the hague of the united states and uh i don't know the united states we're germans in the dutch anyway we'll very carefully guarded because there was a terrorist group who's who said what are you doing you're going to sit down with the murder of my parents and negotiate about money have you no shame yeah we'll kill you all yeah and they set about to kill us all yeah and that was their plan and we had a guy on the inside so we knew what was going on and that required tight security they had some measure of success about which i don't talk yeah um but it was a very tense situation and one of the leaders of this what we would now call a terrorist gang was a gentleman by the name of menachem bacon who became the prime minister of israel was the nobel peace prize you touch on the problem what goes through the mind of the people are they guilty they won the nobel peace prize for threatening to kill me because i was trying to get compensation some compensation for the victims yeah all right that's another point but let's go on to the problem itself of compensation i have personally donated money to the victims fund yes i was the largest single contributor of that time i was very familiar with the negotiation for the farm they had no idea what they were doing exactly exactly and i was one of those people who had no idea no idea that's complicated enormously complicated you know if you if you come to a german doctor you say look this guy is survived the camp and he gets up every night he starts to cry and he does crazy things prove to us his grandfather wasn't insane you know yeah and okay i think it's that kind and then one wants to kill you for talking to him the other one he said you didn't get enough right exactly exactly and there's no money to pay with and where did you get the money for it to invent the money we invented the money for it well i said i got 50 billion dollars by the time i left that was quite a trick my salary remained the same i couldn't feed my family on what i was earning so the 50 billion was fictitious almost at least initially it was a real figure because we bought we primed the german industry every every taxi in israel and built but then but then you had the monies available then or you potentially got the goods and you had the money there the goods we set up a system of border and trade and priming the pump in germany and it worked out very well germans we didn't dare publicize it because the germans would object they said we're hungry and you're giving away money to these people you told us we should kill so it's very complicated psychologically physically biologically financially we overcame those problems and that was a damn good trick benny i don't like to talk about it because it sounds like you're boasting but but anyway that was the next phase compensating the victims and never had happened in human history no victims had directly been compensated they had reparations which they usually went to the government and that didn't work very well either but to have been able to put through a claim and i can say to you and sit here that there is no nazi victim and didn't have a right to claim except those who lived in the eastern territories if they were already in the eastern territory they cut them out which i thought was outrageous too i sneaked a couple of in there victims of catholic victims of medical experiments i did that with the help of the red cross in geneva since you lived in geneva and they have all the records there uh and so i'm giving you the overall picture first to come through your complicated question about how they were boss robots see uh and i will give you or lack of remorse or absence of remorse i would say the following first of all i lived in germany to do all these things a period almost 10 years during that time no german ever came up to me and said i'm sorry none and as a smaller side when a few months ago i met the ambassador of rwanda a very nice lady she was a speaker and i was a speaker here until she i introduced myself for her and i said i want to apologize for what happened in rwanda and she was so impressed by that i mean i said it's a shame it's just disgrace to humanity eight hundred thousand people butchered after the jewish genocide and they let it happen knowing that it might happen and i said that's a disgrace to our community and i want to apologize so she began her remarks she was in prison she said i was very impressed by ben friends i met him for the first time the first thing he said i want to apologize so now the german apology no individual german said i'm sorry okay it would be asking too much uh because the people had asked either their father was involved or most likely themselves were involved the german government decided i was going to they were going to give me their highest civilian award for dean's croissant cluster very fancy thing it looked like rommel used to wear that i said i'll let you know so i met with various groups and i said the german government wants to give me that medal what's your reaction i was not surprised to see that most of the people said are you crazy uh you're going to sit down because the same group wanted to kill us when we negotiated and you're going to let them hang a ribbon around your neck for the same people who murdered my parents this was what year 1952 1952 and uh uh 52-53 and uh maybe even 54 by the time of the medal the negotiations began in 52 western the treaty of west german government only yeah and the west german trials began later in 65 and so forth the treaty of reparation was 1952 1950 okay and it was after that it was fairly recent i mean maybe 10 years ago yeah um and uh i met with the groups and uh most of them said are you crazy you're not going to get to let them whitewash themselves at our expense by giving you a medal yeah using you as the patsy for that yeah and i thought about it and i said i'm going to accept it yeah and i'm going to accept it because this is another generation yeah this is their way of saying i'm sorry and it would be asking too much to ask the individuals who themselves were the murderers to say i'm sorry because they couldn't live with themselves they murdered children by smashing their heads against the tree it was common practice and i said this is the new generation saying i'm sorry and i will not spit in their face by saying no yeah and i accepted the price so a profound and elegant response a profound and elegant response by you okay then i met i had already met with olindorf i never talked to any of my defenders i meant to man i died i had captured their records i had their daily reports from the front top secret how many jews they killed in which town and the other people they killed gypsies as well and other opponents of the rush presumed opponents uh and these i had totaled up to over a million people at that point i had been my assignment had been because i had that experience during the war to collect evidence of crimes so general tilford taylor who was a follow-up on just jackson the imt international military tribunal trial was already over but he was got 12 additional trials to give a cross-section of german lives to see how it was possible that a civilized country like that could commit these crimes that's right so he said ben look when he hired me uh he said before he hired me he said i've checked on your record in the military and i see that you are occasionally insubordinate i say that's not correct sir i'm usually in support but i've been checking up on your record too and i don't think you're going to give me reason to be inspired he said you go with me anyway you will collect the evidence yes and i had the evidence of these and he promoted you to an officer you went from being corporal to at that time they wanted to get me they offered a rank of a full colonel i don't go and you didn't have to go through the offer he said we'll give you a simulated rank i said what's that i said can i again tell the lieutenant colonel where to go and she said yeah okay and how long do i have to say you name it i said okay and i called my lady to him i've been happily went for the last 73 years without a quarrel i called her up said i would like to go to europe for a brief honeymoon but i'd love it she'd been waiting about 10 years but you did i have to interject here because you did have a quarrel at some stage and you perhaps tell the viewer later in the discussion uh about your parachuting uh uh emergency well that wasn't tomorrow well but that you jumped ahead of your i was at the door trying to open the door and kelsey taylor was behind me and he was pushing the door the wife was standing next to me the first thing i know the door opens and i fall out but you left your wife behind in there i felt very guilty about that the door closed behind me oh my god i'm going to survive and they're all going to be killed you got me there leading you through okay so you're collecting evidence now no i collected the evidence of the trials and i didn't talk to anybody i didn't want to except otto orlandorf he was the lead defendant yes he according to his testimony the report said they had killed 90 000 jews yes i asked him would you that's correct he said no so what do you mean by that well occasionally the men used to brag about their body count they were so proud of having killed more they added more to it which i thought was very revealing as to the argument of superior orders so for them accuracy he was felt that these numbers were inaccurate they were he he knew the man had bragged about the body count i said would you say seventy thousand eighty thousand yeah that could be it so killing of innocent human beings wait a minute he was a very humane man for example he told me his humanity when he said some of the men they would just take an infant smash his head against the tree he said i never let my men do that i told him when the woman's got an infant and she's crying and the baby's crying you aim at the at the baby you shoot through the baby you kill both of them with one shot you save ammunition and you've solved the problem and he said i told my men no more smashing against trees you just shoot directly that's an indication of humanitarian approach anyway girl okay so i got this guy he's sentenced to death [Music] he made a very interesting argument very interesting because it's appropriate today he said look hitler knew more than i did he had information and when she told us that the russians plan to attack us therefore would be necessary for us to preempt that an anticipatory self-defense is legally permissible i have german gut achton expert opinion saying it's permissible and therefore we acted in self-defense by beating him to the punch and attacking that's what we were doing and i would do it again under similar circumstances and he answered the judge's question if it was your daughter your sister you had to send would you kill her yes he would so he was a very patriotic german right intelligent well-educated i selected the 22 defendants on the basis of their education and their rank i had about six or nine generals and others all had brash had a double doctorate degree yes uh dr doctor so i selected them on basis these were top guys i couldn't try three thousand people because maybe he's still sitting in nuremberg with a sampling and so olindorf gave me that argument the next time i heard that argument was when the president of the united states the current president addressed for the first time the united nations general assembly since we're sitting here in the united nations i watched the thing and he explained that north korea he said if they threaten us or our allies including some little island somewhere i will totally destroy them and somebody had butted up the speech by saying first we're going to ask the united nations to take it you know they should be responsible to that really you know and so he did put in that sort of talk talk as well but the threat was there i will totally destroy them and i'm watching this and i said mr president and they didn't care what is republican or communist so i don't care who what are you talking about are you going to go in and kill all the people like the nazis tried to kill they were aiming for 12 killing 12 million jews uh how do you destroy a nation you pick it up and throw it in the ocean what are you talking about you're supposed to make them they're not afraid of us and not to try to scare the hell out of them by talk like that and i was shocked by the uh what i thought was the stupidity of that kind of a first address by the president united states i cannot deny that i'm i'm i know that people are entitled to a difference of a point of view and then they should be respected but to go threaten that you will totally destroy a country are you going to drop another nuclear bomb on them you're going to hit them from osiris space or wipe about what do you have in mind why do you threaten such a ridiculous thing such a cruel and inhumane thing your president of the united states and that was my reaction to that i didn't say anything but i wept inside and so now let me come to the end of the story the germans had given me their highest award that was their expression of regret i took it as that of saying i'm sorry because why pick on me i mean you know i stuck the restitution program down their throat yeah and i hang some of their favorite customers and yet they did that and and i accepted it and i i don't wear it but i happen to draw along with other battles it's a story that i hadn't heard before but you you in in speaking about the president's address to the general assembly uh and in the work that i do with my office uh ben when we when we see the return of the thinking that somehow peoples are more exceptional than others that that they are uh entitled to rights that somehow differ from uh the rights entitled or should that that should be could be claimed by migrants for instance or those who are from ethnic and racial minorities or somehow different and we see throughout europe again sort of this almost relapse into a way of thinking which is to my mind and i'm sure it's yours um deeply troubling because in one way it sort of uh shows the lack or the absence of any deeper thinking about the history of the continent so and i've gone public on this we have the prime minister of hungary saying that he doesn't want his people to be mixing with people of another color when there are barely a thousand three hundred afro-hungarians in hungary a country of ten million people and he's just won his third election we see anti-semitism rife again throughout europe we see hostility to of course immigrant communities again emerging from the far right and even in a country like italy the birthplace of fascism in terms of its philosophies there's this group casa pound which is which is openly fascist and and they are being interviewed and they go around and harass immigrants so so once again the fight is on maybe it never left us maybe this is a continuous struggle for those of us who believe in humanity without distinction without placing labels without differentiating we're all humans entitled to equal rights and we we deserve to live in dignity without deprivation discrimination or fear um and in that um as a a proud american someone who served this country in war and in peace represented the united states in the most arduous challenges i noticed that you put out a statement in the same way that we put out a statement when there was the separation of families taking place in the united states a country that really ever since the end of the second world war has been at the forefront in terms of the advocacy of universal rights and the universal rights agenda it must have been painful for you to have seen this it was very painful for me i knew the statue of liberty i came under the statue of liberty as an immigrant sent me you're homeless you're tired the wretched refuge of your teaming shaws send these the distress to me i lift my lamp beside the golden door the lamp went out when they said no immigrants allowed unless they meet the choir the rules that we laid down it was outrageous i was i i was furious and anybody would think that it's permissible to take the young children four or five years of age and take them away from the parents and say their parents go to another country they shouldn't go to another country will get you together maybe at some later date it's a crime against humanity when we list crimes against humanity in the statute of the international criminal court we have other inhumane acts designed to cause suffering great suffering what could cause more great suffering than what they did in the name of immigration law it's ridiculous i have to change the laws that's in the law so i was furious and we should be furious and the students were furious and that gave me a lot of encouragement because frankly i may be sitting here in the united nations but i don't place my hopes on the diplomats to make change they are dependent upon other countries their alliances their own jobs and they don't depend upon the national politicians either uh because the countries are divided ever since time immemorial some glorify war making that's the only answer for malka is the one i gave you and i can go to the peloponnesian wars it was the same it's existed for centuries this glorification of what i'm now trying to turn around with your help thank you very much but we need more help and the students are with us and i think the future lies with them young people they are very busy now watching competition ball games and jumping and jumping they call it music okay whatever it is let them enjoy themselves but some of them are thoughtful enough to recognize they're in great danger and i warn them and i talk to young students as much as i can i have a network through the harvard divinity school and through the buddhists and others trying to reach out to the young people telling them we now have the capacity to kill you all right and if you don't change the rules and make it clear that the law has to be changed to meet the needs of the society it's supposed to serve that's what law is all about so it's illegal to do what they are doing they are threatening you they are wasting your assets and resources and killing machines when you needed to pay off your your school tuition tuition which should have been free for everybody and i think the students would be responsive to that but it requires a mechanism of re-education and this is an example of it your broadcast will be heard by many people i hope and we need you ben to keep fighting for us as well i never give up i know i know i i wish to recall how when i was chairing those negotiations on the crime of aggression and a few years ago in kampala and it was at the end of a very long day uh the discussion was tortured there was very little agreement between the 193 delegates and in the hall and as chair of the working group i was frustrated and i reached 6 pm just about to end the discussion and i needed inspiration and i needed a pep talk and i said call ben ferrance and you walked up to the podium and you gave the delegates an inspired talk but a dressing down as well and you reminded us what is at stake that this is not just battle over a few words here on a text but we're talking about the future of humanity the future of this planet and two or three days after that we reached an agreement you were very unhappy because you wanted more and it's your presence that it's a constant reminder to us how we have to achieve and try to strive for something better ben ferenz thank you so much for this i thank you very much for the compliment of her awareness i don't i i i'm glad to hear it i don't pause to see if it's having an impact i do the best i can and i never give up and i got a slogan law not war and i'd have that on my license plate in florida and the front and the back of my car and i never give up and that's my advice to the students three pieces of advice i give them one never give up two never give up three never give up that's correct ben thank you so much it's a true honor thank you my pleasure thank you so much | UN Human Rights |

wrFzAYnXnRk | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wrFzAYnXnRk | Trump’s Islamophobic Nominee for Director of the OPM Can Not Be Confirmed | i would like to enter my opening statement uh for the record uh and i would also like to enter a document from the muslim public affairs council relating to the nomination of john gibbs for the record without objection i appreciate the brevity i'm proud to represent uh michigan's large vibrant arab-american and muslim american communities and that's why i'm concerned about some of your past commentary regarding muslim americans and i introduced into the record earlier a letter from muslim public affairs council expressing their concerns about your nomination as well and they expressed concern that your appointment will quote create a non-inclusive biased atmosphere in one of our most essential government agencies end a quote so mr gibbs do you believe that your past statements regarding muslims will impact your ability to effectively lead a very diverse federal workforce senator peters uh thank you for that question and i do share your concern that we want to have a federal workforce that is welcoming to people regardless of their background so that those who are capable are the ones who are able to move up and uh and really serve so i can assure you that throughout my career and throughout my life i have never tolerated never accepted any type of discrimination and if confirmed as opm director i also would not tolerate any type of discrimination um mr gibbs i've read some of the very incendiary tweets that you have sent federal employees have a range of personal and political beliefs which obviously may differ from yours how will you defend career federal servants such as postal workers who face political pressure or retribution in the workplace for personal beliefs that are at odds with the president or other political leadership again senator i do thank you for that question and i do agree with you that we do not want to have any type of undue influence operating so let me just say that during my career i have always successfully worked with people from a variety of political backgrounds i of course of the current 700 employees that i oversee as acting assistant secretary i do not by any means go around asking people what their political beliefs are but i have to assume that we have people all across the spectrum and we have a very good team i work with my team very successfully i think it's really important to distinguish here between working together which is obviously very important um and being a leader who protects one's employees from political retribution so can you give an example of a time that you protected a subordinate from undue political pressure during your federal service again thank you senator um i don't know that i can recall offhand a time on one of my subordinates was the target of political retribution uh however i can assure you that regardless of the political beliefs of my employees i do i do protect my employees i empower my employees to the best job possible and we have no issues with anything like political retribution or whatnot so that is something i have not had to face thankfully if it ever did happen i would do what i always do i protect my public servants i protect my dedicated civil servants that are under my charge and make sure that they can do their job as effectively as possible and if confirmed as director i will do the same there have been things that you have written in the past which have been disparaging of the uh of islam uh at the same time have have uh fostered or promoted some relatively extreme uh if not bizarre or nonsensical um conspiracy theories uh including the idea that leaders of the democratic party had participated in satanic rituals of some kind and and i i wonder do you believe those things and and if you do how can those possibly be separated from a responsibility a human resources responsibility to people who who represent a wide array of backgrounds how do you how do you square such unusual personal views with a responsibility to a federal workforce which is highly diverse senator uh thank you for that question and i i do understand your concern there uh let me just say that so with regards to what you mentioned an individual wrote a book and invited in someone to a dinner that is what we know as a political commentator i reported on that at the time but i'd just like to point out uh that is something that is behind me that is not my current role um i can assure you that i have led in a non-partisan fashion over the past three years during my service in the government and i've confirmed as opm director i will continue to lead in a non-partisan fashion uh mr gibbs um i think and you might have addressed this before i was able to uh to get uh become part of this uh hearing today but i'm concerned about some of your past social media posts uh which contained offensive anti-muslim and anti-semitic rhetoric uh it's clearly something none of us can condone so if you can you can can you sort of can you explain some of the uh state things you've said in the past and how how you think you can do your job if you have those um beliefs and the impact it would have on your ability to work with others and do your job um yes senator um thank you for that question and let me just say that i do share your concern about this and i'll just address this by saying at the time i was a political commentator and um and i commented on the issues uh of the day every american has political opinions i certainly have my political opinions and do have them um so that is a fact but one thing that i can assure you above and beyond that is i have always led in a non-partisan fashion and always will lead in a non-partisan fashion i look at my track record over the past three years i've been successful at that and i can assure you that if confirmed as director i'll continue to do what i've always done which is treat people fairly as individuals and never tolerate and never allow any type of discrimination whatsoever clearly some of the words that you have used in the past have caused harm and fear for some uh americans even if that was not your intent so just yes or no do you regret your part in promoting anti-muslim sentiments yes or no i regret that it's unfortunately become an issue and let me just say that like all americans i have political opinions that i've expressed in the past but i'm very proud to say that during my service in the government i've always led in a non-partisan manner i've always treated people fairly and i've never allowed any type of discrimination so if confirmed as opm director i would continue that i look at my three-year track record of that stand on that and build on it if confirmed as director very good thank you thank you | MPAC National | UCtcaCu3VbYmFWvzxJNCDHUw | 2020-09-14 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse

-xsYjL9NZRw | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-xsYjL9NZRw | Kristen Stewart on the Howard Stern show, *{Spanish subtitles, full interview/video, 2019}* | is there Kristen Stewart of course I became aware of her during the uh Twilight Twilight yeah vampire movies love that and I follow her all the time let me let me take a look wow that's you huh well I'm so used to seeing you every day when I check every hate good seeing you hey what's up nice to meet you Kristen Stewart that's Robin I want to introduce you to Fred no one ever wants me do you want to meet Fred you don't want to meet Fred see I told you no one likes meeting Fred it's really weird to meet you because uh I have to confess I do look at all your pictures on The Daily Mail every day oh fun when I follow your life you're one of those people that I I look at the paparazzi photos but you look really annoyed in them yeah I've been cast as that character in the comic book of whatever the [ __ ] that is because you don't you really don't know what to do when somebody's photographing you I've been you know like if I go to La and I come out of a restaurant they start you know shoot my picture I feel very awkward I don't want to smile I understand why you don't smile I I just want to act like I don't even know what to act like yeah it's a very confusing thing yeah I know and so like often fairly arbitrary as well it's like maybe it was bright or something and I look like this and then you're like oh she looks miserable it's like no I live in L.A it's like sunny out I don't know I don't know I don't even know that person was there sometimes I know it's very unfair but I I don't know you're one of those people I have to look at I like when you're going in and out of the gym and you're wearing a crop top and I like to read what they write and all that other stuff in fact you're fascinating wow to me um is much of it true or is it just they make it up as they go along I feel like typically what's actually I mean the actual content is pretty thin yeah I feel like it's like Kristen Stewart flashes her midriff looking skinny or looking nice like I wonder what that's about she looks really tired today it's like yeah I mean the stories are yeah that's true yeah I mean yes absolutely yeah I've created a whole life around oh wow yeah it's really pathetic it's really weird but I I have and then I'm like well what's going on with Kristen today well she's in her crop top showing off her midriff and I read these things and it's crazy but you're not showing off your midriff you're just being somebody who's trying to live their life wearing half a t-shirt that's right yeah it's just you being you anyway um you know I have to ask you about this before I get into your whole life when you're when you do a movie with Woody Allen yeah and he's gives you Direction and he says to you hurry up um I'm getting bored I want you to do this does that blow your mind as an actress or do you sit there and go well he's Woody Allen he must know what he's talking about because I thought good directors aren't supposed to tell you what to do right yeah everyone's different I feel like um in that particular circumstance I agreed with him and so it didn't put me off in any way I wasn't like like I I know what he means I know he definitely wasn't designed to sort of like put me off kilter even though a lot of people might be sensitive and weird actors are very delicate usually I'm not like I do want to just service the thing yeah and uh oh I forgot my responsible water bottle you want a water bottle a responsible yeah you know I'm I'm having a hard time you won't drink from plastic white no yeah I mean I really try not to that's cool uh you should go ahead have some water you can have it I promise you'll recycle it you know I'm having the same problem I'm into this weird thing I'm off meat I'm off poetry I won't eat birds all that kind of stuff because we do so much animal rescue yeah you know my wife and I yeah and then with the plastic bottles I mean the whole damn ocean is filled with plastic but yet I don't trust the water coming out of my sink so what are you doing um there are these like really cool like filter bottles that apparently make the water all right you live here yeah I live I live in many places yes right yeah I feel like the tap water isn't it like classically people are like you can totally drink the tap water in New York in New York you're supposed to be able to yeah I think it's [ __ ] it doesn't trust anything it is so goddamn dirty around here I can't imagine that the water is clean here and the old pipes and everything and I think so it tastes good though it just does and then I recycle the bottles and then I find that from someone they don't like after I do the whole step or anything they say oh when it goes down to the dump they just dump everything all together anyway that's what they're saying yeah I've heard this as well yeah I don't know what to do I have a filter bottle for you yeah I don't but I don't trust the filter bottle because then I won't clean it enough you just buy a new one when it comes out I'm so [ __ ] up and afraid of germs you know those water stores I used to be like driving around in the valley when I was like a little guy I was like what are these how are these places stay open you go buy water from a water store and now I'm like yes you go to the water store with a big huge glove thank you so much what is that that's your filter water I guess so this probably came from a bottle what do you mean there's water stores how do I not know this do you know what I mean do you know what I'm saying like I can get you can get alkaline water different those filters and they have big jugs big jugs that you can put in your own like sort of make it cold things right yeah oh yeah is that where you're going water stores what how normal or abnormal is your life now since Twilight I mean can you I like it seems to me that you would try and you don't seem like a person who wants to attract Paparazzi but it seems to me like where everywhere you go even working out how do they even know where the [ __ ] you are who do people just report to on you is that what's going on uh yeah I mean it was born like something I don't know how you function it I mean they like just outside my house and um there's really like there's really no getting there's no getting away so at some point you just kind of forgo the care do you have a gate I live in a I do live in a small gated community but they just sit outside every single exit I think there are a couple of us in it so I think that I'm not the only one they wait for so we all get kind of screwed so when you get in your car to drive somewhere you got people following you yes I would have a [ __ ] car accident I used to be out of my goddamn mind about it and now I'm not you're not no you have to just chill it's not safe like you like really you just have to like breathe through it and realize that like who those people are not to me people they're a sociopaths that we're all very aware of that do not care about other humans they're they're imitating people those people are imitating people I can't imagine that they have families I genuinely don't understand how you do that to people they're thieves yes because that's how Princess Diana died I mean there was a guy chasing her and they went crazy trying to avoid this guy it's disgusting and that story absolutely turns me inside out and makes me like I could start crying that's uh yeah it's a horrible story it really is and I think think about you because I I know you know on the one hand you've got to say to yourself hey thank God Twilight happened I can get any part I want you know not any part you want but it it definitely UPS your um ability to get great scripts in Hollywood isn't it you know and then but on the other hand you're a young girl and especially when Twilight came out probably about 20 one two I was 18. 18 yeah and the way they're covering your romance with Robert Pattinson and all this I had him on the show he was talking about he said no relationship could survive the intense scrutiny that we were under it was insane yeah yeah it was I mean we wanted to like keep it ours and so it was like this thing of going like well do you do you live like openly and share your life in a way that actually entitles you to living it sort of more freely and naturally or do you like put it on lock because you hate the idea of perpetuating this like commodified version of your something that feels real to you and you're like no I'm not selling you [ __ ] and like and then but then you actually deprive yourself of like so many experiences like we didn't walk down the street holding hands because we were like we don't want to give it to him but then we didn't get to walk down the street holding hands of course it sucks because the best part of a relationship with anyone is walking from the rooftop I'm in love yeah and I'm walking around holding somebody's hand and it's so exciting I remember when I first met my wife we'd go out and I just said you know just being walking down the street with you is an exciting thing oh my God I know that I know and that takes away the experience you know it it truly does and and it's a there's no lessons you can take on how to handle this stuff right I mean who do you turn to when your Fame becomes so intense it's a weird thing because Bradley Cooper now he's a big star but I know how Bradley lives he's on the subway here in New York I went out to dinner with him one night he's walking down the street with me we're just strolling along it seems for some reason like he can walk around and not get the kind of attention you get my theory on this is there's a couple of women in Hollywood who are so attractive and so mesmerizing like in the Julia Roberts category you being one of them that they just they're consumed with you I do know for a fact that men get approached in a very different way because they're uh I don't know more intimidating or just um there's like a certain I don't know there's a respect thing where people go like oh no I wouldn't wear as women are like we're like it's like fodder like if I I um I mean I've seen the difference between how people approach men versus I hadn't considered that yeah I hadn't considered that you might be right no that you're bigger like guys are they're bigger they have this the stature of like excuse me I sort of command a certain thing especially like successful famous men like there's a certain sort of like you know I don't know there's a dominance they're genuinely dominant and we're not and so it's like there's just more entitlement and also it's like wait give us what give us what we want like you're a girl you should be happy to be here you should be smiling it's like you know it's kind of an old story but it's like it's like yeah you know what you should be happy you're famous and everything's perfect in your life so therefore you should sit here and pose for us yeah but it put you here we own you now and it's weird too because then when a guy who they don't normally bother gets into a relationship with a very famous woman they become a couple and then suddenly the paparazzi are way more interested in them well yeah stories people like to you know it's storytelling yeah exactly it's like projection and it is weird yeah and it does seem weird when especially when it happens to a girl who's 18 or 19. it felt wrong yeah it feels like a rape in the sense that you don't say that well well doesn't it it doesn't it feel like a complete Invasion I'm not comparing rape to being photographed no totally but I did that once because I I it was just sort of like this easy word to pull and then you're like obviously I do not mean in the in any remote literal sense right oh God forbid you said yeah right but yeah which I understand completely is like there is nothing there is absolutely there's like incomparable scenario but right theoretically yes you're stolen from and you're forced so am I wrong to look at these pictures on The Daily Mail should I stop if you tell me who I will what do I supposed to do don't give them Quicks or I don't genuinely I don't even care all right I'm gonna stop how do you like that I'm gonna do that for you great it's another Outlet I don't know I take pictures willingly all the time look at those I know I know that that is true I um you know what movie that you did that I'm really fascinated by the Joan Jett movie The Runaways thing well now now when you play Joan Jett versus a character in a movie that's got to be a weird thing and the fact that you hung out with Joan Jett is even weirder like in a way it almost if I was an actor I wouldn't want to hang out with Joan Jett because it would intimidate me and I'd say oh how the [ __ ] am I supposed to be this person yeah and then she's going to be looking at your cross eye because oh you're not being like me yeah but the way you prepared for that role is to just hang out with her all day and night yeah like like live with her almost 24 hours she was she was with me the entire shoot I never there was there was um really never a day that she wasn't there yeah isn't that weird in a way if you had to do that movie all over again do you want the person you're doing in essence you're doing the story of their life do you really want them hanging out with you commenting that doesn't feel real that feels real that doesn't in this case I would do it again the exact same way because she's so um she's so intimidating like staggeringly so like when you mean you're like oh like she has this armor on that is just like it's kind of penetrating she's tough she's really tough yeah but then you realize that the reason she is that way is because she is a delicate little angel baby like she's she's very like it's a self-protective thing because she's super Soulful and like sensitive and very she's such a yeah exactly and so like we really got along really well so our suit of armor is this tough girl kinda thing but if you get to know her and you get under the hood she's very emotional oh yeah and a delicate person oh yeah no the reason that she has the reason she is who she is is not because she's like yeah tough It's because she's like a poet yeah when I hang around people like that and maybe you even get this rap too that like uh people think you're super cool they think that like with Joan Jett too like oh she's just a super cool woman and and you get weird around people like that because you don't know how to be you feel like you have to be someone other than who you are because they're judging you you know what I mean and so playing Joan Jett and hanging around with her all the time to me would be tough just because I wouldn't want to disappoint her it was no at first it was awful like I can't rehearse I can't commit to rehearsal I can't show anyone anything before it happens it just feels like ridiculous until it's like until it's go time I just find it to be an absurd act I get it and so she was like we're rehearsing Cherry Bomb and I was kind of like barely half-assed like doing it and she was like I could see the worry in her face because she doesn't know my process she hasn't made a bunch of movies you know what I mean so I was just like I saw her face kind of fall and genuinely question whether or not this was gonna go down and I was like oh like I started crying and like I was like I promise it's gonna be okay as soon as we started shooting it was like not only did she allow me to kind of live in it and like she kind of handed her stuff over to me in a way that I didn't have to be exactly like her because that would just be that would suck that would suck it would be you doing an impression exactly and that wouldn't be really him but but that's the weird thing I understand that when you're pretending before the camera's rolling you almost want to give it about 30 of your energy yeah because it feels stupid it's ridiculous yeah yeah yeah and and then when you get in front of the camera then you feel like that's my job and I know what I'm gonna do yeah yeah well then you can really commit to it and really be swept up in something that kind of is beyond your control that's why I would be annoyed if Joan Jett was hanging out with me the whole time because I have to sit there and explain to her how I work how I do it did you learn how to play guitar for that luckily I already I started playing guitar when I was on set like as a little kid my dad played a lot yeah but there was some other movie you played guitar and two I'm trying to think of or something it wasn't a movie what am I thinking of do you know what I'm talking about I play guitar and into the wild too yeah yeah and you really but on the Joan Jett movie you're really playing we didn't play Live no no but I mean I knew the songs and we yeah we we pre-recorded them it was like such a run and Gun movie it was Tiny and I see yeah what was your favorite movie to do was it Twilight do you think I mean just in terms of the process or was it working with Woody Allen or maybe I would think maybe with Jody Foster when you were what how old 11 when you worked with Jody Foster I turned 11 on that movie you were really good in that you're talking about the safe room where you guys yeah you guys lock yourself in a room yeah and you kind of look like Jody Foster in that movie in a weird way I could believe you were her daughter yeah it felt that way and it was weird because she was actually cast after I was um we rehearsed with someone else for several weeks and then it fell through and she came on and I was like oh this is perfect casting you look like me yeah you could find some lady who looks like me yeah oh look you did a really good job she's perfect for my mom were you nervous like you had no concept at 11 years old that Jody Foster was as big a deal as she was right I actually I um I thought I had seen Taxi Driver at that age which is what I don't know how that happened how does that happen well you know I was a curious kid I was the youngest in my family and like there's [ __ ] lying around and you consume it you know what I mean like my parents were never super like Sheltering also I read I feel like I read chunks of definitely saw private parts when I was like really little and it was like formative I genuinely was like I I remember like the image of like you on the cover I just fully remember being like what is that like private parts was in the house as like a DVD or a video or something and the book oh the book yeah Oh I thought you meant the movie both yeah yeah like I saw the movie on TV I definitely but I remember reading parts of the book too and it was like I really enjoyed it thought it was like I was extremely curious and like [ __ ] up it's so [ __ ] up yeah I know and I was like way too young but at the same time like I turned out fine and but it was super developmental is what I'm saying seriously like it was a thing oh you know yeah don't blame me if you're seeing a psychiatrist you see a shrink to deal with all the fame and to deal with your your stepping out of the house and having people chasing you around all day do you go to see someone I should I think anyone who can afford it should probably be in therapy but I don't take that advice I don't know you've never been to a psychiatrist no I've been to like you know I don't know I like I self-help I I like I I enrich my life and sort of like compartmentalize and consume art and make it and I love my friends and I have a dog and when I look into my dog's eyes I feel like probably go to therapy yes you're absolutely right I don't even mean switch they're really is there someone you can turn to but whether famous or not I would think they'd have to be famous that could say to you listen I went through this this is how you handle it this is how you handle yourself I mean I know there are PR people who can tell you how to be on TV and there's people who can tell you this and that the other thing but I'm talking about someone who you trust because I would imagine in your Stratosphere there aren't a lot of people you can trust yeah um I mean my publicist has been my publicist since I was uh like 13. really who's that her name's Ruth she's here really yeah does she represent other people are you her only client she represents uh yeah she has a big age yeah yeah right um but she's like my sister like she's one of my best friends and she's she's like uh protective of you extremely and I know for a fact that it's definitely in no way like sir she it's not like self-serving and it's not she definitely doesn't like tell me how to b b in in order to get any sort of like pre-designed it we function from a really natural and like instinctive place that feels super true and so Ruth is the person you would turn to and say listen I went to the gym today these guys are out here photographing me then I got my car and they followed me and I had the worst [ __ ] day because I didn't know what to do and I didn't know how to handle it Ruth would be the one she's the go-to person yeah definitely I mean absolutely yeah or just like you just go oh you call like friends like good friends and just take me you just have to sort of put it out when you were a kid in school and you started acting so young were kids hostile to you in the sense that uh oh big shot now you're you know you started out very young your parents were in Show Business um behind the camera right yeah if Dad was a set designer I want to say stage manager stage manager and what was your mom doing uh she was a script supervisor right so in a way it's weird like my dad was in radio and when I'd see other guys on radio I go that's what I want to do but it made me think I'll never be able to do that because they're so accomplished and they're so they're so magnificent yeah I remember I remember I remember that in in this in in private parts I remember it freaked me up so like I can completely relate to that feeling of looking up to your parents and sort of like what they do as a as a complete like as as an ideal as an aspirational like God I want to do that you were excited by what they did extremely they would come home smelling like they had just been out in the world like really like just had been like traversing crazy distances in order to like achieve a story thing and they're like part of a circus and they come home with like you know mini candy bars in their pockets and like a script bag and they don't come home for 16 hours and they leave eight hours later like to me I it was intoxicated it was sick I loved it I was like all I want and they would bring you to the set yeah yeah and you would look at this and just I've got to be an actor yeah when I was little I wasn't like I didn't I wasn't like really keen on performing I just wanted to be on the crew I I de-glorified that job in order to sort of be a part of like a blue call I was like yeah I mean we're glorified Liars you know we're just like we're we're like really good at pretending but we're just another member of the crew and then I got a little older and I started really like understanding how you could be like fulfilled as an artist in that way and how it is somewhat different at times to just having a more sort of technical job and I was like now and then I became like a more sort of pretentious like actually you never trained as an actress like did you did you have formal training when you were a little kid you were doing it just kind of like by feeling it yeah that's weird to me like you could go into a commercial audition I guess you do commercials at first and you do little Walk-Ons where you don't uh say anything I didn't ever get any of those I only ever got one commercial really yeah what was the commercial Porsche oh no kidding it's pretty cool boys are cool yeah I was sick it was really cool did you get to speak yeah was it hard for you to learn how to memorize lines and to compose yourself I mean I was very shy and nervous but no I could remember lines like yeah because when I first got on the radio I saw a [ __ ] mess I mean there was just nobody banking on me I can't imagine at that young in age to be poised enough to be in a Porsche commercial I was not poised not in any sense like I was like literally like thrown out of any like typical commercial or like Disney like type of like kid stuff like right little kid shows or never not even close the first movie I did was called the safety of objects and it was like dark and bizarre and sort of heady didn't you do something for Disney didn't you once have some kind of interaction with Disney or did you audition for Disney and that kind of thing no never I mean maybe I auditioned when I was younger for some Disney stuff but you had a lot about it oh my God yeah I auditioned for I auditioned for like a year and a half and didn't get anything and it was also like it's a it's a demoralizing and brutalizing process going in as a little kid and having all these like girls be like and they're they're they fit the yeah they're like bouncing around and dancing and they're fully able to somehow um not feel shame and I was just like drenched in it and then I found my people you know yeah because you're self-conscious when you're a little kid too oh my God yeah no I was like a mess yeah when you uh sang the dreidel song at a school holiday show are you Jewish so I did 23andMe and I am I'm 24 Ashkenazi Jew oh you are my Mom was adopted so we just didn't know you don't know what you are but she was adopted by Ben and Norma irman in Van Nuys California in 1953 so I was like Mom I'm pretty sure that they probably would have at that stage adopted a fellow Jew and I could be wrong about that maybe not but I feel like I feel like back in the day people were quite I don't know anyway it's on her side and I'm thrilled and like now I'm you know you were at school you sang the dreidel song and an agent saw something in you and decided that he would represent you is that how it goes yeah it was more like kind of a cattle call situation like some someone's mom worked at a thing where it was like come buy headshots and like a few uh audition classes to learn how to like put yourself on tape or go give your like name and slate right and my mom was like do you want that and she definitely didn't think that I was gonna say yes and I was like yeah I do I definitely want to do that and she was shocked because I was like I was like super shy yeah extremely yeah I get that vibe from you for some reason I feel like you're a very private very shy person and then yet you're able to go on and act when you go to a party anymore yeah I know I'm like definitely not like uh when you go to if I show you at a party in Hollywood would you be sitting in the corner somewhere kind of like uh just they're too intimidated by everyone to really speak up or would you would you be having a conversation with people I talk to people you do yeah depends on how [ __ ] up I am I'm kidding I'm kidding will you live in California weeds legal do you like weed yeah I do the first time I ever um was photographed after the Twilight thing happened uh my I was on my front porch with my first my like high school boyfriend and my dog and I was hitting a pipe and then like his family who lived in Staten Island that were far uh less you know accepting of stuff like this than my [ __ ] up hippie parents from from L.A right um were like you guys were on your front porch smoking pot and I was like what how do you know that oh my God it was like in the post it was like the first thing and then Ruth was my my girl my publicist was like maybe take it inside from no one I mean I think things are like changing rapidly you know it's a weird thing with Hollywood with with pot when you see that picture everybody's smoking pot and yet in Hollywood they're so afraid of addiction and all that kind of stuff yeah you want to like perpetuate that yeah yeah yeah I get it but it's weird because uh very well adjusted it's all good I can smoke weed it's no biggie yeah it's no biggie but people probably because you're a leading lady people are constantly probably telling you what to do and what not to do to not affect your career um yes and no yeah I think I can kind of feel it in a sort of like um undefined way I mean a couple of times I've had like a few conversations that run me the wrong way but like typically people around me are really supportive and and loving people say don't be photographed with a girlfriend people just say don't be photographed with uh weed or something that was sort of a conversation that happened like a number of years ago and it never I kind of never got over it right um and then I and then in this rapidly developing and progressing time it became absurd and I was like that was only three years ago uh I I used to have conversations where people would be like if you don't want to talk about it and you don't want to Define yourself then you need to stop setting yourself up for that by going out and whatever and it was just like well here's the thing now that question is it's a ridiculous and ignorant question and it's a sort of like violent like okay my yes my my well a friend of mine has a kid and she was like hey um I asked my kid if he was like Gabe it was like in like the nicest like sort of most I was just curious I just want to know him I just want to be as close to him as I possibly can and he's really young and he uh is really self-possessed and very clearly already feels comfortable in a way that feels fluid and cool and kind of like you don't know where it's going to go and he was like this is child abuse and I was like it's true it's like you know on some level the the sort of fervent question that was demanded of me for so long is now ridiculous that's true it's it's a non-starter but that's a Hollywood thing I remember the days you know Rock Hudson was a gay man yeah um there's a couple of guys in Hollywood who are Leading Men Who were gay it was pretty well known but if the general public found out you were [ __ ] right no one could accept you in a heterosexual role it just was weird like you're an actor you're pretending to be something what's the difference but yet Society hadn't gotten there so I could picture in your life you got a couple of people in Hollywood who say listen you got a great career you want to continue to have a great career don't [ __ ] up make it easy on yourself yeah don't be photographed with a with a woman and that conversation did happen to you and I always said I I would love to ask you about that because [ __ ] it I mean what you're doing yeah it's got to be okay it's just got to be okay to be whatever the [ __ ] you are I am so coincidentally lucky to be like living in in this time and I look at literally just like kids people five years ten more like people people five years younger than me have it so much easier than I did three years ago like when it was just like it was just this ridic people change every day there is no reason why anyone needs to like provide an easy narrative for other people to digest it's like there's no why why would I simplify something very complex just in order for you to feel comfort more comfy it's like nah I don't want to diminish this like cool thing which is like discovering yourself and your sexuality and like how that changes like yeah yeah I actually really do admire your courage because I'm old enough to remember how horrible it was when people would come out and especially in Hollywood oh man the way you live in your life is a beautiful example you were like hey [ __ ] it I yeah coming off Twilight I can I can do movies I can do this but I'm not gonna sit I enjoy holding the person I Love's hand in public yeah I like it yeah and your life would suck if you didn't do that and I admire your courage for doing it because I think a lot of people would have said [ __ ] I don't want to [ __ ] up my career yeah totally and what's cool is I'm really lucky I was never I never was in the closet like you know me and Rob never we like really kind of kept our our stuff like unlock which was really painful but it was never I never was like I never felt like ashamed of I I never felt I I luckily I was raised by loving parents that were fully accepting and whatever but like I never parents or something else didn't they they took in Strays right I mean when I say Strays I mean in the sense that if a kid was having trouble in his family or just wasn't getting as long at home your parents would let other kids live in the house yeah I mean very unusual yeah my best friend had a really rough um upbringing and just didn't have really any options and I was like he has to be here I mean nothing else and they say okay yeah they even did that with some of their friends like were they were very uh my mother would never allow them she would not because you know what my mother would have gone and consulted and said you know in a way bringing a kid into your house can be really hard on you too because you want attention and you want the love of your parents yeah in a way maybe maybe sometimes a kid shouldn't be allowed in your house but your parents seem to have a really open attitude yeah these were like kind of dire situations and then yeah we were just kind of a like a communal what's it like what are the what did the kids parents say when your parents are now keeping their kid in their house I mean my best friend's mom and dad both die from drugs oh so they had nowhere to go away yeah and then and then his grandparents subsequently were just like not yeah it wasn't a it wasn't a feasible sitch and so that kid would have been in the system absolutely if it wasn't for your parents yeah absolutely wow they're pretty heroic too yeah yeah who would take on the burden of another kid uh not too many people yeah I guess so yeah I mean I have that too like I I feel like um my in a much less sort of dramatic uh dire way I I have all my friends like we have a very tight-knit thing like I do feel like I kind of have this umbrella thing going on that I've got like a certain number of people under and I think I got that from my parents it's a nice way to live like a communal sort of lifestyle is what's it like uh having a best friend who's both their parents both both this person's parents die from drug overdoses and now they're living in their house there had to be tremendous sadness brought into that house yeah he was going through a lot yeah yeah and I mean that had a way on you I mean that had to be a heavy emotional burden no um to be honest like fully like you know uh just yeah he yeah I mean like I wish that it didn't still follow him there's no way that that's not like a shaping and some kind of devastating thing yeah I feel bad yeah I still feel terribly for him but why did you drop out of school and uh get homeschooled in seventh grade were you his school is miserable he's scary it's terrible but I couldn't I wouldn't have had that option I know I mean so lucky you really are lucky I know why was school horrible for you in seventh grade was it because you were acting with the kids like kind of singling you out and saying oh who you think you are big shot is that were they trying to shame you for uh acting at that stage I hadn't done anything like very big panigram was like kind of an adult movie and it was a couple years since then time is what was the difference between kids what was going on in seventh sixth grade fifth grade what was going on that made you feel so uncomfortable I think just the age I just think God like I was not somebody who um like I had my friends I think because I was like gone and then back it was hard to sort of oh you know it was hard to like fall in right when it was so staggered um I didn't have my friend group I changed schools it was like sort of I went to this one school in a really nice area and I was like not wearing the jeans I was like such a weird little like self-conscious like pimply scuzzy gross you know when you just feel [ __ ] gross yes what are you kidding of course do I know oh man like no matter how many times you shower you're just like I hate this oh my God you see I see you is so uh you know physically beautiful that I figured you went to school and you were the prom queen like I I really figured you just had it easy because of your beauty and I always think people who are good looking get that Advantage at school like like you should no my seventh grade pictures are are real oh man yeah not not cute but I see you as this cute kid in panic Roma Jody Foster when you're 11 so I just figured the world is your right like like my wife modeled it she talks about school the principal was worried about her every minute you know my principal didn't know my name so it's it's very surprising to me that you would have a bad time in school I was like really bad at math but really great at other stuff like I couldn't get to my ultimately the reason I stopped going to school is because my teachers actually resented the workload that I provided them because they would have to like I was in public school and so they had to like put packages of work together so I could leave and then I would come back and they were like giving me like low C's when I was working my balls off and then like like I failed a class and I was like okay I I I actually have to drop out yes and do independent study and I was able to like design my curriculum and it was really cool and it was like educationally speaking it was so much better because I could focus and I actually liked it when I went to school I was in like full-on special ed math because I just my brain doesn't work like that and then I was in like AP English and they're so far from each other in the school I would be like running to my last period And I would get in trouble every day for not making it I was like it is physically impossible for me to get here you don't understand and then like I wasn't the type of kid who could speak up for myself then so I would just be like late and in trouble and I'd be like somebody help me yeah exactly and then you're like maybe if you tell your parents they can help you but you don't do that when you're a kid why is that I don't know your parents I know but you blame yourself but there's something there that you just want to be a hero and be a martyr and act like you take on so much as a kid if I ever have a kiddo I'm gonna be like every day and be like what's going on tell me everything what happened in school nothing you liar like come on I can help you trust me like yeah I mean it's uh it's it's it's weird your whole life is is kind of interesting to me because to start that young and you've said like you never got to go to college right do you regret any of that do you do you um do you say gee wonder what that would have been like what I could have learned academically maybe it would have been kind of a fun time no I have this a massive chip on my shoulder about that you do because I know in Hollywood there's a lot of people who kind of lay out what they've read um what they know there's a lot of actors need to tell you how well researched they are that I basically I am an auto-didact like it's just like yeah for sure but also you could just be an actor and that would be cool too yeah that would be fun yeah I'd be fine yeah there's a lot of that going on yeah but same I'm always telling people about like all this [ __ ] that I know because I'm like so when you started with Twilight which is a defining moment you said that was like a college education and I I don't think it's the education yeah it was like hanging out with all those kids yeah that was like the period of time where I was like you know drinking too much beer and like rolling to class like you know cross-eyed was it so much fun in the camaraderie I mean not only were you falling in love with Rob on the set which by the way I think is the biggest mistake an actor can make there was nothing I could do yeah it was just it was just the director was even nervous because the first time you guys kind of auditioned you together or you would have already had the part but they had they put you together to see the chemistry it was immediate chemistry between the two of you yeah yeah it's weird it's so weird like like actually being honest about this is like it's been so heavily consumed and it's like I have this fear that people would assume that maybe I'm like you know it's kind of a tension like oh cool you're still like pushing that narrative or whatever it's like no I've actually never been allowed to just say what happened right because I was so self-conscious about seeming like an attention seek like somebody was like trying to or taking advantage yeah exactly the fact that you guys were dating and stuff people I mean I we were together for years that was like my first you know love yeah I mean like I was super in love with my high school boyfriend super super [ __ ] in love with him but me and Rob were like a little older and it was just like um but uh he's a Charming guy I mean he's he's really he's the best and you know the the bat movie especially the first one the way you played it and maybe it you know it was just perfect I love scenarios where this Superman the vampire is Superman and this woman now is finally realizing that he has superpowers and you couldn't have played it better oh thanks like you played it perfectly like you you just were like oh my God I want him to bite me I don't care if he [ __ ] kills me I just can't let get enough of this guy and the scene that I watch over and over again from that movie is Die Hard yes I am the first scene where he uh pushes the the car so that you don't die so you don't get hit by a car and you realize this guy's got super strength that like sounds it's [ __ ] and then when he takes you out into the woods and you you know and he he comes to your bedroom he's you're jumping out the window with him you're holding on to him yeah [ __ ] amazingly [ __ ] romantic that's what it feels like I mean that's like when you're that's yeah man that's totally what it feels like even though I mean like I was super aware that we were doing like a teen movie and I had never done that before I've done like very over serious kind of like dramas pretty much my whole life and then this I was like I wanted to do like a culty weird indulgent just like full-blown you know I don't it's weird to use the word girly now for anything because I don't even know what that means are we talking about what is that like it is a girly role but it is the traditional and it feels amazing yes it's Julia Robertson pretty woman when she you know sees Richard Gere's super powers it's Lois Lane it was seeing Superman it is a girly it's a traditional Hollywood girly role yeah but it's also like a Romeo and Juliet yeah 100 but because it's so girly which is amazing that's why it's even more Brave that you came out with your life and lived your life authentically because people want to see you over and over again as that that romantic girly role I think you know there's a there's a temptation to keep falling into the same part sure but like I have that in there too you know what I mean I think um I'm about to do the uh like let's do like a gay Christmas movie that's a studio film and uh wow yeah it's it's doing that what studio Maybe I'm Wrong I actually couldn't tell you that's cool when you reach a level where you don't know what studio it is I'm like clear Duvall right now like my my friend Cleo who wrote and is directing this movie is probably like Kristen you idiot yeah what is a gay Christmas movie though the fact that any Studio backs that though now is just such a cool thing um well there's a big audience for that yeah I mean there's a lot of gay people yeah and I always there have always been yeah what is a gay Christmas movie in other words it's following a couple that's gay in the movie yeah it's it's like a couple goes back home for Christmas and it's uh they're kind of trying to Traverse um the family one of them coming out I was like basically my character goes home with her girlfriend she wants to propose and she gets there and she's like uh by the way they don't know I'm gay but thank you so much for coming and I'm so sorry and I'm like what and it and it just sort of like goes like downhill from there um I have still friends who are gay who will not come out yeah it's not it's you know everyone thinks oh everyone who's gay comes out I know I could name 20 people who are gay that will not come out yeah they're just afraid they just don't want to deal with the [ __ ] they just don't yeah so gay Christmas movie is a great idea the thing is they don't have to deal with the [ __ ] if they don't want to just ignore it yeah they don't see it that way yeah I know yeah trust me I get it yeah but yeah I mean like you you don't have to you literally just like it's like if you you know you can look at all the [ __ ] in the world or you can look at the beautiful things it's sort of like you have to like kind of take take those and you have to like dose yourself with I mean that's an individualized experience but all I'm saying is it's not that bad like don't surround yourself with that [ __ ] and then you don't have to focus on it yeah I know and and you've certainly lived your life that way so I I believe you when you say it it's it's for them it's hard to believe it it is hard to believe but you just do it and then and you deal with it yeah um the uh getting back to Twilight though yeah so this whole thing is explode so this whole thing is exploding because at first when you're shooting it you don't know that that's going to be a monstrous movie that grows hundreds of billions of dollars right you don't know no it was an independent movie like it was we were I mean it was like kind of like an indie movie I mean what we were with Summit entertainment at the time and it was like and you get small and you get that part because you had worked for Sean Penn right Sean Penn really liked you as an actress as a young actress I think this is tell me if I got this right and you were recommended to the director of Twilight is that the way it worked that Sean Penn's recommendation or do I have it wrong I'm not sure I think maybe they would yeah they know each other I can't remember if I'm being honest Sean Penn good director oh my God yeah why why is he a good director I don't know because you just do any it just feels unhinged it feels like you know protected and controlled yet sprawling and my favorite types of directors Make Me Feel Like Anything could happen and we're on like some sort of like holy path what a strange thing to be so young and working for like these adults and these adults are telling you what to do your parents must have been nervous about all of that because they don't know Sean Penn from a hole in the wall and you're suddenly like now he's your Guru and yeah I'm just thinking it's a weird thing but they Revere filmmaking and also my mom was with me all the time they were really protective like she was she always like joked around she's like I can't believe you forced me to become the evil stage mom that we all like sort of notice on set and and cringe at and now she's on set being like that's it she's going there's no overtime and I'm like I want to stay and she's like shut up maybe because you were a kid I don't know if you did or not but did you ever experience any of these me too kind of moments that we read about nope because maybe because you were a kid and your parents were with you you've kind of been protected that way I don't know I don't know I'm so lucky yeah I've never ever been made to feel like I don't know I was like as shy as I was as a little kid if anyone ever I just don't think that I this is a slippery slope because nobody has ever brought this upon themselves I just genuinely think like I just seemed like someone you didn't want to do that to I would have been like what the [ __ ] like I I had like such a potty mouth as a kid I was like so direct and like I only got self-conscious as I like became a teenager and then I like finally I'm getting back now getting older is great you become like like you were and you're a kid yeah um but no I've gotten so lucky I've worked with really really I've seen people do it to other people on set and it's like made me kind of been like enraged like I've seen crew like line producers like people like DPS like like making stand-ins do weird [ __ ] putting their arms around them and stuff I would literally I sit on set and I'm like she probably doesn't want you touching her I'm just saying right and then everyone's like whoa I'm like yeah I mean what like call it out like you're being a weirdo stop good yeah man my makeup artist was dealing with this [ __ ] [ __ ] once and I was just like I literally every day on set I'd be like here it comes nobody feels comfortable and he was like oh my God I can't believe I was like yeah I mean stop it thanks guys do not see themselves at all they're almost not even Wicked people they're just completely just stupid dude they're just shaped by all of the reasons why you know like white male privilege is a thing and they're like what oh you're so lucky I don't know a woman that hasn't been molested or it's an epidemic it hasn't been molested or raped it's just unbelievable how many women I meet that have had this experience I know yeah it's pretty crazy getting back to Twilight though so this thing this script comes to you it's like it could becoming a bit no no no no no it's not a bit because I'm fascinated about this one I love the moment where things get out of control in other words you're doing a little movie you've worked with Jody Foster in Panic Room you worked for Sean Penn this and that you get this role and you get it pretty easily because people had seen you work as a kid I auditioned for Twilight too like pretty heavily oh you did yeah the only person I ever heard who was up against you was Jennifer Lawrence you ever hear that story I think everyone kind of auditioned for that movie and at the time it wasn't even like a coveted because nobody knew it was going to be such a big thing it was sort of like everyone get up harder you don't you know what I mean like at that time I mean look I could be wrong maybe there were a few girls that had read the book and like wanted it I hadn't even read the book when I started making the movie I see were there movies that you really wanted that you never got like that you went in for and when you experienced rejection like were there movies that you just said I gotta get this [ __ ] role and you didn't and get it yeah for sure but I can't think of what they are because I had such a like let's like let's like real like be honest about ego here if I didn't get a part right I would literally be like oh my goodness um I was totally wrong you're an idiot uh you're gonna make a movie that is not the movie that I wanted to do because the movie that I wanted to do I'm in it's not like you like that's true I'm like wow dodged a bullet there speaking of movies you didn't want to be in Rob when he was here told me with Twilight that they wanted to go on a whole other direction they wanted you to be Smiley and him to be Smiley and be lovable little uh he's be a lovable little vampire and he said it was tremendous pressure to act that movie the way he wanted to yeah he was honestly like thank God he did have that like I mean he like he wouldn't do it the other way and I don't think he even had that in his wheelhouse like his body wouldn't do that and uh I mean mine either I was so over raw and like I was like the only reason this is good is because it's like ah and they were like no but it's not fun and we took a lot of slack like we were constantly being like reprimanded and thank God we like sucks for our guns because that's why the movie Works yes yes that's exactly why the movie works yeah your two characters really played it well yeah and I can't imagine that I'm like yes exactly well no it's true kind of not brooding teen if not I would not have liked the character I wouldn't have bought it that's why I said it was Romeo and Juliet yeah it did it was some tragedy exactly yeah yeah no it really worked and and and uh you know I can't believe I'm like looking at you and talking to you about it it's like very trippy to be here looking at Rob just every day I say to myself very trippy um but let me just this thought of course okay the thought being that oh yeah the audition Rob comes in you go to the director's house and you're on the director's bed oh it was really weird this is what I'm talking about this might be the closest house and be making I don't know if you're making out but if you're rolling around on a bed with with Robert that's a weird who auditions in a director's house no it's almost supremely [ __ ] up yeah right yeah you have weird feelings about it no I'm so into it oh you kind of [ __ ] up yeah he was so into it yeah it was amazing dude making movies is a very occasionally um I have had like real experiences and and and um I I retain memories that feel like they're part of my parts of my life that actually occurred while filming movies like acting is not for me when it's bad you're lying and you're pretending and when it's good you're like going through something and um so yeah we set ourselves up for a very strange experiences so can you go watch any of your old films and or is it too emotional for you because it depends on which one but yeah sometimes they're very triggering yeah like would you go back and watch the first Twilight just to reminisce and say hmm this was you know this reminds me of a time in my life that was pleasant yeah I mean I've seen parts of it like it'll be on TV or like oh man um yes I've seen it since and like it's such a weird movie it's like so it's so particularly itself and then like kind of culty because it is it's so clunky right it has a spirit but it's like what the [ __ ] Jesus like it's it's hard to watch yourself at 17. it's like a very you know do you do you would you recommend to other young actresses that they fall in love during the movie or should they avoid it because that's my point uh you say you couldn't have stopped yourself I mean I'm in love with Rob I was gonna say I don't think it's really a choice yeah but isn't it dangerous because the set is such an aphrodisiac it's like a maybe it's not real it's not real but then but then you could apply that to any other what is what is real yeah because they cater to you they're treating you like you're a star they're no no it wasn't like that at all you have to start smiling [ __ ] I'm like nope but did you have a sense that you were in trouble now that you were in love because you're like oh this is cliched I'm falling in love with myself I thought it was the coolest thing ever and I was so proud of it and I was like we are like rock stars dude we're like like I was like yeah you wish that you had this but you know when you just have that thing and you're like this is the coolest well it's cool too because you're really trapped in like high school like you say or college and at least you have you have this great outside romance going on at the time it was fun but it's always doomed isn't it because it's just too much pressure when you got as famous as you did so quickly talk about the financial aspect you go from being I guess you were a comfortable kid growing up in terms of money it wasn't like money it was a huge issue but still you weren't wealthy your parents were okay yeah we're okay we lived like at the at the base of Topanga Canyon in Woodland Hills like it was not very a very nice upbringing but it wasn't like I didn't like my brother went to Calabasas high school and we would like go into those neighborhoods and be like Jesus like you get lost in a house or like right yeah that we didn't I mean you know I rode in my bike to school I always went to like public school like you know a pretty normal life but very Suburban normal lifestyle yeah when money starts rolling in hey I mean you've never been a you're a kid and all of a sudden you have Financial Freedom I gotta feel like this is mind-blowing and sort of liberate like incredibly liberating because on all of those subsequent movies you're getting a percentage of the gross they couldn't have made those movies without you they couldn't go ahead if you you know you could have gotten whatever you wanted financially because you were the movie you know you and Rob with the movie do you know what you're doing at first or do you go [ __ ] crazy and start buying everything in sight um no I have a I have like very sort of like menial um what do I spend my money on like food like I have I'm into this house I'm house in L.A that's I'm never gonna move out of it's perfect for me yeah and we're concerned about Ellie burning down right I mean uh Los Angeles California everything I mean it's on fire out there I know I just was out there I never go out there but it smelled like fire I know it's a real bummer I'm so sorry for people that are like would you love your that's the house you bought with that money that's what you did you bought a house at our house do people start hitting you up for money does your life change that way that people start to say oh you're rich come on yeah I mean not like hey you're rich come on but it's sort of like I I have like dependence but I don't mind that I like I I don't feel taken advantage of you're grateful that you can do that yes very so that brings us to Charlie's Angels which you're out promoting right Charlie's Angels yeah you didn't watch the old TV shows no I think why why not though is it because it was too goofy or or you just don't want to fall into the Trap of pretending or acting like those people you want to bring something new to it no I mean I kind of like familiarize myself I think I like watched a few minutes of be like it's just from a different time and I totally you you can watch one episode and get the gist of what they're doing right you know what I mean so I didn't I didn't I didn't commit to like a season I would think that's fun as an actor to be in a Charlie's Angels movie so fun right because you get to shoot everybody you get to kill the people you get all that everything yeah yeah we get to kill the bad guys yeah it's awesome when is it coming out it's coming let's see I got that information November 15th and theaters everywhere whenever that is when is November 15th a couple of weeks couple of weeks and promoting a movie like that you just did Saturday Night Live we like doing that we we do that you don't like doing it uh I it's weird okay so like I sometimes sometimes you just sometimes it's just mood oriented like if you're if you wake up and you actually just don't have like the I'm a people person I love people I love talking to everyone whatever but if um there is there is a sort of ceiling that when you hit it it starts to feel so absurd and you're like oh man I can talk about this thing anymore because it's also the most important thing in my life is like my work is like so personal and it's not work there's no separation between like my I'm not I don't it's not I'm not professional it's I'm very like feeling like I never have to be like okay I'm at work I'm gonna do this I'm gonna like really I'm gonna put on my game face and be a pro it's like no I never want that I want to be really available and really present and never trying to put anything on so sometimes it's gouging out sometimes it literally feels like someone's gouging out your insights and you're like get the [ __ ] away from me wait a second but then sometimes it feels amazing you talk about acting no I'm talking about promotion live or promoting in your career you never got promotion in fact when you were in that movie with Jody Foster and you're 11 years old and then they tell you after you shoot the movie and you love the whole experience when you went out to promote that movie you were you were even as 11 year old I don't understand what what am I doing I couldn't even handle I literally like doing interviews I like was just why because you don't want to be judged yeah that way you don't mind being judged as an actor not at all but you don't want to be judged as a person yeah it scared me I was really like I didn't want to seem stupid I I had no control over like what was gonna happen I also had like a lot of anxiety as a kid that I've grown out of so doing promotion is anxiety producing and so part of because Charlie's Angels is a is a big movie you feel the obligation to promote it totally and I want to I really like the movie I want I want people to see it but to go on Saturday Night Live that was scary that's scary the first time you did it I loved the opening monologue you came out and you showed all of the tweets or some of the tweets that President Trump had made about you and it was hysterical it was the best monologue because you came out and I thought this honesty was great you know because so many actors and things won't talk about what's going on their personal life and this and it was so fabulous because Trump was consumed with the fact that you and Rob Pattinson had broken up sure and he started tweeting against you saying hey Rob you can do much better than Kristen Stewart forget her yes I had to fight I had you kicked [ __ ] tons of girls basically like his man he was like what you he was like this measly lady has has yeah no no I was talking weird is it that the president of the United States is saying hey Rob Kristen Stewart forget over her man she's no good I mean and then you commented it on Saturday Night Live I thought that was [ __ ] terrific you would think that he had um you know more important to do yeah it's it's absurd when the president is nursing for him when the president United States is going after you and basically saying hey you know what you're not so hot yeah sure which is what he's saying he's judging you I'm literally gonna like gag right now yeah he's like hey you know he's like hey you know what I wouldn't [ __ ] her oh my God I'm literally gonna I have to like not be a human anymore but you don't want to go to bed with President Trump you don't think that would be good what's worse what's worse people like actually having to [ __ ] him or everyone for the rest of your life thinks that you did I cannot imagine I honestly I'm like what would be worse [ __ ] that guy or having people be like like she [ __ ] Donald Trump like well you know Don I don't know if he's the catch of the century oh I know no he yeah and I think he was very sincere I think you know that's uh that's what's so weird I think he was very sincere that Rob don't worry about it you're gonna do much better than Christmas he believes in the things that he well I don't I can't finish that sentence I know sometimes those things seemingly reflect what he think I don't yeah it's ridiculous it must be surreal for you to have that happen though but it was great that you addressed it did you ever talk to Rob about it did you ever say can you believe the president of the United States is carrying on about our relationship yeah well we got back together like we like went through a thing and it [ __ ] sucks but like we really wanted to like be together and so yeah I was like I can't yeah I don't remember that particular conversation but we definitely were talking about everything in that time that's kind of an exciting conversation actually like in the one hand it's disgusting and on the other hand it's like oh my God can you believe we're that focused on yeah yeah it's pretty wild maybe you can use a little more time yeah I yeah I still need a little more separation from that yeah that's that's pretty intense yeah well that was the thing that was so amazing to me was that you know all the Twilight fans were so invested in your relationship as well yes yes it's too much oh it is it's too much it is Stories We like watching stories you know and everyone it's like a choosing or an adventure story too is like what you believe I had people genuinely asking me like if that relationship was real or fake no like the movies uh um fabricated a thing for publicity yeah well they did used to do that in the old days I know it's such a weird like Studio system like old school way of thing it's like you really think at this point after all these years like that I am like that's how I live my life there's no way a relationship could survive the types of scrutiny that you guys had really I have we were also just so young you know what I mean like there are stages life is long like it yeah was there a point you would have gotten married do you think I don't know I wonder imagine I wanted to yeah no I mean like I think I've never been opposed you would have been you would have gotten married I don't know a super duper traditionalist but at the same time like yeah everything I I've ever every relationship I've ever been in I thought that was it I've never like casually I mean maybe one or two do you think I'm giving everyone that do but like I've never really been the most casual person you know do you think you'll get married one day yeah for sure that appeals to you like it never did and yes absolutely now it does yeah absolutely and in no way that's tied to like any weird sort of conventions more just like I when you know you know you know what I mean but why do the traditional thinking get married I'll tell you why I did yeah I I recommend marriage I think it says to people this is the person I hold above all others that's how I feel too and I want to announce that to the world there is nothing like feeling sure about anything because we don't know anything and that is the only thing you can feel like you know is that if you're in love with someone and it elevates I don't know what it is about that tradition it elevates the relationship beyond what you could have imagined I completely agree with you it's romantic yeah and it's I don't care about like who I it's being recognized but not in a way that's like I don't feel like I'm cow telling to a sort of patriarchal standard I don't fit but I do feel like I wanna like that honoring that and having other people recognize it [ __ ] the government but just people and you're yeah your family that means a lot to me I was hung up on the way people treated my wife when she wasn't my wife yeah I didn't like it yeah they were like oh she's gonna be the bimbo of the week or something no no I want to be on a team and I want the team to have a name I don't want to like yeah and for everyone to feel in the relationship completely yeah this is beautiful I like what you're saying he's such a romantic I am a romantic yeah you know you look at me you think oh God how is this guy a romance I mean it's just but but it's true when you did Saturday Night Live the first time the big thing was all in rehearsal you were cursing up a storm like a sailor yes [ __ ] this [ __ ] you were nervous so you start to you don't I was embarrassed yeah I was like I was like yeah yeah you were embarrassed it's so embarrassing sketch comedy's [ __ ] ridiculous why is it ridiculous I it's so not what I do like literally watching those people do that is it is it is baffling they are Genie like they're it's it's brilliant yeah they're brilliant Kate McKinnon fabulous right I am like floored by that I'm literally floored by that person insanely uh talented it's weird it is weird it's weird yeah it's weird yeah it's sick and it's a unique Town yeah she can't do but what you do first of all if you weren't born with that face this is the other thing that's got to freak out you gotta there's only certain women that have the look and only certain men who have the look to be leading actors and actresses yeah I figure out something else but yeah I mean it's got to be a bunch of things it's got to be a bunch of things I mean you gotta have a certain look what's the matter you're drinking bad water no I'm just trying to think uh why are you feeling you'll jinx it is it feel funny for me to say that to you no I just don't want to sound like an [ __ ] like yeah no you got the look when do you know you have the look I guess when you do when you I guess after Twilight and you're the leading lady I guess you know I was I was genuinely such a sort of like um uh weird not like popular not um classic like I wasn't like traditionally my best friend was a cheerleader and I felt like a [ __ ] troll right and um for a long time uh so I like I think like when I you know I think when I turn like 16 or 17 and like the guy that I had a huge crush on liked me back um I couldn't even believe it do you know what I mean I was like that's weird I don't understand why does someone like me yeah yeah um so yeah no I I uh um I'm super lucky that I get to do movies where I get to do love stories but if I didn't have that I you know I so it's fair to say that Saturday Night Live is a very uncomfortable situation for you but your greatest Comfort must be when they do those film little bits yeah that's fun yeah that I could tell you were comfortable but you're saying when you come out especially when you come out to do the monologue that's the easiest part for me oh it is yeah but that's when I think would be the worst because you got to come out as you you're not playing a character at all and you got to sit there and talk about something going on in your life well I'm not a sketch comedian um right so like if it was a sort of like improv or like a sort of um if it was like a um like a dramatic Workshop or a sort of exercise situation that was broadcast I would go I would be fine with that um I'm not I I'm not yeah um going out and shooting the [ __ ] with an audience and being like I put no pressure on myself for that like it's not my job to like be hilarious and I don't think anyone really expects that I think like the coolest thing to do is just go people say you kick it your friends say you're funny they say that the Charlie's Angels character kind of most reflects who you are in real life yeah yeah totally but sketch comedy is like outlandish you know what I mean like it's like I don't have like I don't I don't do a bunch of Impressions and you know I mean maybe I can get a little better at it in time but it's not like my default setting you know do you go who who tells you what to wear when you come out because that was a very provocative outfit I liked it thank you the sexy it was that's what I was going for bra you were though weren't you [ __ ] yeah yeah you're wearing a bra but I'm seeing the bra you're showing some skin the skirt was kind of tight you like that oh hell yeah dude yeah I like women yeah you look good yeah yeah I mean but who helps you with that do you have a stylist I have a stylist that I've been working with since I was like 14. wow yeah so we really know each other we have we like yeah and what about Coldplay do you hang out with them at all uh when you're when you're doing Saturday Night Live or is it just it's a crazy schedule it's a tremendous time commitment you've got to be there a couple of times during the week for rehearsal right I mean you're honestly one Monday when Monday starts that's it until until Saturday at one o'clock in the morning you're are you in this yet are you in the writer's room when they're writing these sketches you can be if you if I I'm I'm more hands off because I I feel like as soon as I start having something to do with I don't even writing things or being too um in the developmental process of filmmaking starts to sort of take me out of it as an actor I need to sort of believe it in a way that like feels I don't know like if I make it up I don't believe it anyway but and also it's not what I do and I think that for me to sort of try and say like hey do you think you could incorporate this sort of half-baked idea into your writing right because you do this all the time and how annoying that must be to have some [ __ ] [ __ ] after coming what you did what if you don't have to ask you to they want you to but I was like you do your thing and I'll just like kind of follow your lead but let me alleviate some of your pressure in life if you do a particularly good impression like maybe you do Impressions I don't know maybe I don't know that about you but maybe you do why not go to the writers and say on Saturday Night Live listen I do a great impression of Ariana Grande and it would be really funny if I did that why not why not insert yourself into the process because I probably have like an inferiority complex about having a superiority complex and I'm overly self-conscious I have a huge ego oh my God Oh my he goes like ba and then I'm like no like would you clear up a rumor for me about you yeah it was some story where Harvey Weinstein of all people was was we had a charity thing yeah there was some I don't know or Saudi Arabian Prince yep who said I will give 500 000 Harvey to your charity if you get me 15 minutes alone with Kristen Stewart that sounds terrifying and that happened it happened yeah did you go through with it to raise money for the charity unbeknownst to me um this occurred I had sort of been sidestepping this person for a while uh in other ways like I I can't remember how but like this was some like I knew about this person I was like no no no no no because it wasn't at first it wasn't um a philanthropic thing at all right in other words someone was trying to get a hold of you yeah exactly pay anyone anything in order to just like kick it with me for a second and so um probably in his mind he's thinking if you just met me for 15 minutes oh yeah you'll be in love maybe this will be it this will be it you will run off with him yeah I wonder what his thought process was I really don't know you try to keep that out of your mind exactly yeah but um uh so I I went to this fundraiser that I was invited to and he was there and I was like oh I've just been fully harpooned and it's fine I'm like I was ultimately it was well intentioned but it was um it was definitely uh a lie it was it was like I was uh I was coerced into a really good thing if he had just told me I probably would be like okay [ __ ] it yes that will raise a lot of money for this thing I'm down I'll come see him as long as there's like people around and I'll like shake his hand and be like totally bye but to do that to someone and not tell them is like um so so you had the 15 minutes with this guy I guess you made good on it uh you were alone I walked into a room and he was there and he was there no and I was like oh my God yeah did you have security around you yeah always yeah oh yeah you did yeah it wasn't a dangerous or procure it wasn't like a weird it was a very weird situation but it was not a threatening situation it was just like this is sort of wrong you could have gone about this in a different way you psycho oh my God yeah wow yeah you see that's when you get used yeah that was weird users used for a good thing but yeah but no no it's [ __ ] up yeah you must have a crazy life do you get proposed to a lot I mean you have a lot of guys doing that kind of stuff where they're like hey come on just you know go out with me once no no I don't think I put that off wow Jesus what was the conversation like by the way that would be a really [ __ ] up movie we actually married the guy oh my God yeah oh my God yeah was it a horrible conversation I don't remember I don't think we talked about much no I think I was like nice to meet you oh my yeah it was a flirt yeah yeah of sorts I definitely was not flirting no no not you yeah yeah yeah oh my God what a life but really he didn't have anything to say I don't remember I think I was just like probably staring at Ruth and being like Oh my God right now yeah yeah Kristen you've lived full life and you're only 29. think about it think about what's going on I wonder what the future will hold I feel so crazy lucky I've I've been saying it a lot like recently I feel like it must be a simulation and I am somewhere designing my little life like yeah it's going it's going great it's going great yeah at the end of Saturday Night Live you were jumping up and down was that relief yeah you really hate it that much no I don't no no here's the thing it's just scary but I am such a everything I do is scary I put myself in like very high pressure situations and I thrive on it I love it but it's but it's a lot I I wouldn't I wouldn't want it any other way I mean I I would go back into like Lauren said like you can totally come back if you want to and I was like I'll be back and everyone's like why would you do that to yourself you're kind of you have to really breathe your way through that like you're huffing through it I'm like yeah well you know I understand it I do that with painting I try to paint things that I'm not comfortable painting because I want to be able to do everything yeah and in a way you got to challenge yourself you got to keep challenging yourself what do you paint watercolor oh cool yeah but uh you know I'll see something and I go I don't think I can draw that and then I go and draw it because that's the way you get better yeah I think oh my God absolutely I don't want to say no to stuff like it makes me feel bad about myself I would rather [ __ ] up at something rather than avoiding it and then feeling like Yeah but isn't it hard even deciding to do Charlie's Angels because like you got so much on the line now you have so much success when you [ __ ] up it's real there's a big Spotlight on it so it's like probably the decisions are a little too tight like you just can't go off and do any film you want now yeah I definitely um was like pretty aware that if this didn't turn out good that I would be like super bummed but I've made a lot of bad movies it's fine like I really I don't mind I know that like bad movies you feel the movie is bad but your performance is good or you or you're critical of your own performance both both depending on individual yeah I mean what's the bad movie you made oh my God I made so many sort of what's a bad movie you made I don't want to be mean to people be mean to yourself what's your worst performance my worst performance yeah oh man okay let me see I I look back at certain things and think that there were missed opportunities like um or just times where I kind of my body let let me down um I'm really embarrassed when I watch Adventureland and I love the movie and I love Greg matola and I love Jesse Eisenberg he's one of my favorite people to work with and I want to do it forever but there was it was a certain time that I'm like dude but and then people love that movie and and I guess if I can step outside of myself it's fine let me see what else am I bad in I don't think you were bad in adventure wow no I don't think I'm bad in it there was just a few things where I was like dude you could have done them better yes absolutely um certain parts of Twilight New Moon I totally screwed up the like devastating I was so in love with Robin so happy that I couldn't imagine losing him yeah you're right and then I and then like but now I'm like oh man I could have really like done better work in that movie and nudity not a big deal to you no no you've been doing a lot of uh a lot of movies yeah no I'm definitely not like a mo I'm not a like I'm not like a mod I was gonna call myself not prude like I'm like some sort of no no the first time you do a movie they say okay you got to show your titties for lack of a better word no I want people to like really appreciate like no I like living openly I I have nothing to hide let me put it that way like I I want to Bear myself for sure I admire you yeah yeah look at what's going on with you very admirable I think it's kind of a reaction to being such a shy weirdo as a kid I just went like if I it's all or nothing you know no you're doing great yeah well after Twilight you did a lot of independent films and smaller films was that by choice or you know because you could have gone just and made blockbusters yeah um there aren't very many good viable Blockbuster options you know what I mean so yeah I just want to make good stuff if it's bigger or smaller that movie uh the [ __ ] was it the the one with um Charlie's there and um uh Snow White the [ __ ] movie made like a half a billion dollars did really well yeah and then they didn't ask you to be in the sequel um we lived in a different time then you know what I mean I feel like now like the [ __ ] shaming that went down was like so absurd and they should have put me in that movie it would have been better not to be a dick but you're saying there was slut-shaming of you in that well they didn't put me in that movie because like I went through a you know highly publicized Scandal so they were like scared of touching yeah they were scared of touching that that's why they didn't have you in the sequel that was a dumb move I think so they didn't have you in this isn't that wrong though not to put you in a sequel because you fell in love with the director I was kind of a weird thing but I definitely um think that that movie I it wasn't that big of a deal do you know what I'm saying it's like literally wasn't no because I've actually forgotten about this yeah like I people at the time think it's a big deal the work is so so much more important it's like what do you care about I I just thought that that movie actually we could have made a great second one and we could have done it in a functional and healthy way um and then we didn't ultimately do that and that's okay because I did other stuff and it's fine but yeah that was weird so you were blamed for you not being in the second move just because you had sex with somebody that's what you're telling me I did not [ __ ] him oh you didn't [ __ ] him okay we're the most candid interview we're just gonna be like take it easy she just had a heart attack no but oh you didn't [ __ ] no I didn't even oh so why don't then why not clear that up why not say that well who's gonna believe it doesn't even matter I'm honestly I feel like you do and I actually feel like this is the most honest setting I've ever been involved with you have been so honest through this I believe you so so why did you get pegged this [ __ ] you were because it looks like you know you like make out with a dude in public definitely looks like you oh oh so it was an innocent sort of thing the the media made it out to be a big deal yeah I mean look it wasn't innocent that was like yeah you know it was that was a really hard period of my life you're like you know that I was like really young and like um well it's understandable you're a young woman yes okay you were going out with Rob yeah I didn't really know how to deal with that I made some mistakes hey guess what everybody does yeah exactly right and honestly it's no one's business and people get over it [ __ ] like that you know what I mean it's like it really is not a big deal and basically what I'm saying is like the work to me genuinely was like um ignored in a really sort of frivolous like silly Petty Way for a for a group of adult people who are like supposed to be running Studios and making films that's what you're I mean honestly like the film industry in Hollywood is so fear-based and it's so like there are equations that lead people to massive decisions that you assume are creative that are not at all yes and so like that didn't fit in their equation they're idiots because if you take a little risk and you make something good people will watch it and like it and pay you that's why I said you were Brave in the beginning because you you're brave about your relationship with your girlfriend and because I know even being photographed smoking a joint can actually keep you off a movie even this day and age so yeah you know any of this stuff well listen you've said a lot yeah well by the way uh uh what's your name uh Ruth Ruth yeah she quit she uh I love you man uh look you're coming here yeah Kristen Stewart is in Charlie's Angels what she's really here to say is look she wants you to see the movie you're proud of the movie Charlie's Angels is sexy right yeah I mean hot chicks no yeah these [ __ ] are taking it back yeah are they taking it back absolutely I mean the movie's about like a network of women across the globe that have like I always thought there was one Bosley you're saying in this film shockingly there are multiple bosleys yeah and multiple teams and networks and just like fully connected like anyone who's like really slaughtering like any any woman in power in our movie probably an angel like we're all together we're like power in numbers is like a real warm fuzzy feeling and you like the message I do the whole message is that like Charlie isn't even a real I mean like he started the company years ago but like he's doesn't Charlie's a movement in our movie it's not it's not like a man powerful company and owns a bunch of women that he sends off to go do his bidding we run the company and it's a the Angels run the company yes that's the difference yeah did you kick ass with karate yeah do you know how to do karate for real um no but I can fake it really well like I can do a tornado kick and what do you train for and when you hold a gun have you done some training with guns a little bit that was less into those kind of screw me up a little bit but isn't that an important lesson I mean Keanu Reeves when he plays um uh John Wick this kid knows what he's doing yeah we were really responsible like we didn't like there were every bullet is accounted for in our movie like we're not like shoot him like we're not just like oh there's a bunch of people over there you try to look before you shoot if you use your firearm it is like oh [ __ ] like they're they're you know they're you know in other words it's not we're not killing goons like they're not nameless goons we know you know what I mean like yeah yeah you're trying to kill actual people in the movie and and to have some uh gravitas behind killing them they need to be stopped they're they're they're they're posing a threat and they need to be taken out how long a shoot is Charlie's Angels uh we were there for um four months I think no Kenny was it where do you shoot somewhere warm uh we were in Berlin oh got a [ __ ] up place I yeah well that makes sense well look at me it's weird it's definitely like a CR it's eerie but I I love that City it's just not where you want to like flounce around in like small outfits I was like really Eastern Europe like come on why because these guys will hit on you and uh it's cold oh that's why it's yeah it's like you know the the idea of Charlie's Angels like I think like convertibles and like sunshine and beaches and we did not do yeah you must be miserable because what I get from watching you in the paparazzi you like wearing uh you know warm uh closing hot weather fair to say yeah it totally depends like my style is all over the map like sometimes I look like like a yeah sometimes I put on like baggy [ __ ] and then sometimes I like want to wear my wife lived in Berlin and loved it it's cool she thinks it was great yeah it's very liberated yeah when they tell you Belinda I'd be like oh [ __ ] can't we just shoot somewhere warm yes that's what I thought I was like are you serious Charlie's Angels in Berlin yeah I mean it's cool it's sexually in the Bahamas and bikinis agreed but that's kind of obvious yes yes what's going on in the Bahamas not what's going on is warm weather and all kind of things but if you want entry you go to Berlin for sure I like what you've said today thank you it's been raw you've been honest you went out you tackled a lot of topics yeah so many I don't know what the hell I don't even know how to sum up is there anything to sum up Robin have you learned anything I think we've got it all I think we got it yeah and I expect you to be married soon are you in love right now yeah you are like like yeah I mean the answer is yes will you propose absolutely when I can't [ __ ] wait really yeah I don't know it's big yeah I want to be like sort of somewhat reasonable about it but I think like good things happen fast and yeah proposed yeah it's been a yeah yeah I mean like look let me put it this way will you get down on one knee and traditional uh proposition no I can't say right now because she'll find out she's listening probably not but I feel like that might get back there and that would be a really bad idea have you told her you want to marry her you have I also know exactly I have a couple plans that are like the just the coolest things to do that like I don't think it'd be is pretty undeniable yeah I [ __ ] mine up really how did you do it this is this I'm embarrassed to tell you because you're gonna think I'm an [ __ ] but I can tell you're not an [ __ ] I got naked and I asked Beth to get naked now why did I do that what the [ __ ] was I doing where at least they were in the house oh yeah yeah no we were at the gym no no no no I mean we were in and I said I want to tell you something and I think we should be naked when we do it and I mean imagine what I look like naked that's I'm surprised I didn't get a flat out no all I'm saying is don't be naked when you do it I saw a romantic thing the other day I'm at a restaurant with uh with Jimmy Jimmy and uh Jimmy Kimmel and his wife Molly we're sitting there in Brooklyn and uh a guy just got down on his knee at the restaurant and he proposed and right in front of us yeah and it was very romantic traditional but romantic yeah maybe that's what you should do I'm I'm really impulsive like I don't know when that's going to be but the first time I told her that I loved her and we were like sitting in this random part I'd only been like I have like I've known her for like six years but we started like seeing each other it was like two weeks in but it was like it was literally like the day that I met her it was like all bets were off I mean you were friends for a while like yeah I met her years ago on a movie and I hadn't seen her in six years and then she like rocked up at a friend's birthday party and I was like where have you been and how have I not known you she's been like living in L.A alongside my life somehow but not ever converging and so yeah the first time I told her I loved her I was just like it was like really late and we were in some like shitty bar and her friends were there or whatever and they like walked out and I was just like oh man I'm so [ __ ] in love with you like done just like that and yeah yeah it wasn't like a thing and it also was like so obvious like it just is yeah it's sick I'm sure that that's how it'll happen although I do have like a really good idea we're both from LA and we like really love LA and we're both like we're both kind of like scumbags like we both felt like trolls as kids we're like so similar but different she's a writer's brilliant like um but I I have this like really cool thing that I'm gonna do that I want to tell you but I just can't yeah well I just repoposed to my wife on Jimmy's show and they got remarried on Ellen I mean talk about uh borwin yeah wait what yeah you got remarried on I was on Jimmy show and I I've proposed to my wife many times I said let's get remarried she goes no it's [ __ ] up people always end up getting divorced after that so I said to Jim I go on vacation with Jimmy so watch me propose to Beth and I'll get down on my knee you know propose and she'll go no in front of all of our friends so I went on a show and I thought she could be funny to watch her say no to me and instead she said yes of course yeah you see what I'm saying yeah that's pretty romantic it's really sweet is that what you're planning more romantic than that I don't know oh yeah why don't you come on this show and propose that would be great for me I mean how awesome would that be I really need that from you um mine is it's just I've got a different idea but with a ring yeah the idea for that is actually it's super wrapped up in what I'm yeah I'm trying to get no no no I know he's he's worming his way around he is yeah pulling off uh it's a jack-in-the-box thing Cracker Jack ring now we should run this by me I mean as soon as we are off the air I will tell you exactly what it is it's really cool really yeah I have two things that I like I've I've even told her like God there's two things I won't be able to tell you until I can tell you and she's like what you might as well do it already you've basically told her you're gonna marry her totally but like I want to like luxuriate in this [ __ ] I want to like I don't want to rush I want a romance yeah I want to draw it out yeah you're right you're doing it right yeah I feel like that I feel yeah I feel like that now listen I wish you luck with that I'm a big proponent of this it's time to get married it's time to just profess Your Love yeah and time to tell the world this is my wife whatever it is I mean I completely agree with you I want to make like movies and kids with this girl and that's like I can't believe I'm so like I

HPsn1Eu1-PU | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HPsn1Eu1-PU | Beautiful Stamped and Sealed Concrete Patio Slab | hey everybody mike here in this video we're pouring a colored concrete patio and we're going to stamp it ashler slate so you're going to get to see the stamping process so right now what darin's doing is he's mag floating the surface we're getting out all the bullfloat lines we're basically just preparing the surface for the stampin right here this is what we do so we'll mag float it we'll get it nice and smooth and then we can start dusting this thing now we stamp a lot of concrete we also pour a lot of concrete floors slabs patios so if you like that kind of stuff you know go ahead down there and hit subscribe if you're a regular viewer well thanks for coming back now what darin's doing is he's dustin it we mostly use powder release on all our stamp jobs he's using a charcoal release the concrete has a color of land and stone in it it's kind of a tannish type color try to go with the house so the first thing we'll do is we'll dust it and then we'll texture our edges using that little roller that's a pretty handy little thing now what darren doing right now is he's setting that first stamp so that stamp is what we're going to go off from for the rest of the patio because all these other stamps kind of lock into that corner this is how these ashlar state stamps work this these stamps are from butterfield there's all kinds of different manufacturers of this type of stamp but we like this butterfield one it's a pretty big one so it covers a lot of ground the stamps are pretty rigid so you can walk on them pretty nicely without sinking down through as you can see luke right there is walking right on it and they got these nice handles for setting so they that makes it stamping pretty easy the whole key to stamping is just timing when knowing when to get on it you don't want to be too early you don't want to leave uh divots in there with your feet you can see he's wearing some stamping shoes now you can step right in those they got really nice flat soles though those help make it easier for stamping also now the concrete's not hard enough yet to use a tamper we'll you'll see that a little bit later on in the video you're also going to get to see us clean and wash this saw cut it and then seal it at the end of the video so you're going to get to see the complete process of the stamping right here now right now i'm out front stamping a walkway so the guys are just using like two-thirds of this set and when as soon as i get done with that walkway i'll bring out the rest of the stamps and then we'll be able to go right completely across this whole patio which which makes it kind of nice when you can set your next stamp off from one of the other stamps you're less likely to to run off that way you can see how luke's setting those stamps right there off from each other and this is basically how we do the stamping process he's got a touch-up tool with him he's touching up some of the joints if he needs to he'll continue the joints up to the foundation powdered release is a little bit messy but we like the way it leaves the finished product when we're all done sealing you can see i'm done out front now and you'll you know this is part two part one of this series is us pouring the colored concrete i'll have a link for that at the end of the video if you want to check out the pour as soon as you get done watching this one it's pretty interesting the way we pour colored concrete also tea is over there on the edges just making sure that the edges are all done good broadcasting some release for us there isn't really room for four people out there not at least not four people our size anyway with three people you can move along pretty fast on something like this this is about a it was about a 800 square foot patio and walkway [Music] there yeah [Music] my [Music] hey here we are washing the back patio ashley slate stamped concrete we got land in stone for a color and then we use the deep charcoal release this is what it's going to end up looking like we're not quite done washing it yet we still got to scrub it but this is the beginning of the washing the release powder washes off pretty good but you still got to scrub it with some we use dawn dish detergent that's going to get most of it off so that way when you go to seal it your sealer doesn't fail see how nice that looks though [Music] hey guys so to see our stamp concrete we're using deco crete's d1 penetrating sealer plus an acrylic compound so it penetrates down into the concrete and it leaves a sheen on the surface so it you kind of get the best of both worlds for protection it can be used for stamp they got it for pool decks colored concrete here overlays exposed aggregate so it's it's a pretty versatile sealer we're liking it it's uh it you know really pops the color on the on the stamped concrete once you give it two or three coats we always use a stainless sprayer when we do it but this is the sealer we've been using right now guys deco crete's d1 so we ended up giving this three coats to finish it off here's what it's going to look like right here in a minute again thanks for watching guys come on back and we'll see on the next one | Mike Day Concrete | UCem87zDMe98Cmypjd6PVf9A | 2021-07-12 | Creative Commons

HsnH5PTT68M | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HsnH5PTT68M | Breaking Dawn - Part 1, Happy Feet 2 and J. Edgar: Two Teens and a Movie (plus Mom) | thank you hi I'm Corey and I'm Colin and welcome to toe team and a movie the movie that we'll be reviewing today is Twilight Breaking Dawn I am not doing that forget it wait wait I will I will let me review it I can do that okay so I'm going to be reviewing as a mom Twilight Breaking Dawn Part One Breaking Dawn is the fourth and final installment of the Twilight Saga Breaking Dawn part one gets Twilight fans exactly what they've been waiting for the marriage and the honeymoon of Bella and Edward finally but this is no simple Union as you can imagine It's Complicated by the fact that Bella is also going to give birth to a child that's not entirely human I don't want to give the rest of the movie away but I can tell you the ending is exciting and thrilling and will leave you on the edge of your seat and you won't be able to wait until the second half comes out in November 2012 for the final installment of Twilight Breaking Dawn part two as my boys would say there's a few things that you need to be concerned about and you might want to consider whether or not you'll let your child or teenager go to this movie I would highly recommend that you are a teenager up because there's some sexual themes and there's also some graphic violence particularly at the end there are some scenes that I even had to turn away because it was too much for me to to handle or to look at so for the things that I liked about the movie I love the fact that it was true to the storyline in the book the character development was solid and the special effects were amazing they just keep getting better what I didn't like about it was a couple of the scenes were just too graphic and too hokey for me the graphic scene at the end with the childbirth was way over the top and there's some hokiness when the wolves are talking to each other and it just doesn't seem to fit with the rest of the movie okay so now it's time for my favorite part of my boys movie reviews giving the movie its grade so you might be wondering what I'm giving Twilight Breaking Dawn Part One well I'll tell you a B plus it's not the best movie that I've ever seen of the Twilight series but I really liked it so B plus it is hey boys it's your turn okay we're taking the show back foreign let's try that again welcome to two teams in the movie the movie that we'll be reviewing today is Happy Feet Two wait I haven't seen this movie well I have get out of here on Happy Feet Two is the sequel to the original Happy Feet the story is about what happens to a colony of emperor penguins when global warming creates chaos in their lives and in their habitat this is a heartwarming great family film let's cut to the Chase and get the parental concerns there is nothing wrong with this film inappropriate wise unless you're offended by dancing Penguins this film is completely fine there are two things that I especially loved about this movie one they're Penguins who doesn't love penguins second of all they're dancing Penguins what is cuter than a dancing penguin overall I thought the story was excellent and the actors were extremely extremely funny if you liked Happy Feet one you'll love Happy Feet 2. usually I give grades with my brother but this time I'm the only one so my Grade Rules so I gave the movie A B plus even though the movie was funny there were only a few issues the ending was very cliche and the beginning was um not as funny as I thought it should be so from two teams wait wait I haven't do my movie yet get out of here sorry about that after getting rid of that minor annoyance I'll be reviewing Jagger Jagger is a powerful film from Clint Eastwood this movie is based on the life of a man who ruled the FBI for nearly half a century played in a stunning performance by Leonardo DiCaprio J Edgar tells the professional and personal life of a man from a conflict he was feared admired reviled and revered but it was his personal demons that would eventually destroy his life and ruin his legacy now for Parental cautions parents should be advised that this film contains homosexual themes including one graphic homosexual kiss along with some foul language because of these issues this film is recommended only for older teens and up here's what I liked about the film Leonardo plays a magnificent role as J Edgar in fact the makeup was so good I didn't even recognize eyes Jaggers Leonardo DiCaprio until we got to the flashbacks I will be definitely surprised if this does not get nominated for best makeup at the Academy Awards well I did not like about the movie is it kind of put me to sleep for a minute because they dragged things on a bit too long and they kept shifting back and forth between the president and the past and so I wasn't sure what time period I was in at first now here comes my favorite part the rating I give Jay Edgar a B plus now this is normally hired and I would have given it since the film was just too long but however because of the astounding performances by the actors in This film I can expect some Oscar nominations at the Academy Awards for Best acting two teams wait wait wait wait wait wait I get to say this part in the movie well see you next time | bainbridgehawkins | UCCV5cPeE4wRRmL75kqHy7YQ | 2011-11-28 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 995 | 5,179 |

does not cost you a single dime hello folks welcome to your channel add value to lives walking is a remarkable cardio workout and a positive way to kickstart your metabolism according to a medical journal walking helps reduce the occurrence of continual ailments in fact strolling at a speed equal to or increase then at 8 km/h expands greater electricity in your body than walking at a normal speed or a velocity so keep listening to this video till end to find out the levant benefits we are working on food benefit number one it assists weight loss now walking is an outstanding way to burn calories and lose white researchers at a university in the USA designed a test that the concerned overweight sufferers or patients would stroll collectively to their destinations in and around the city and after this strolling and walking for about eight weeks their weight was checked and more than 50% of individuals lost on an average about two plus kilos of their weight benefit number two promotes heart health walking helps improve heart health find out about or a test was performed on females or ladies in rule New York and it confirmed a superb correlation between walking and improved biomarkers of cardiovascular health many other studies also suggest that taking walks reduce the hazard of cardiovascular diseases or ailments by at least 31 percent each and every grown-up or an adult has to do a moderate amount of intensity exercise like brisk walking for at least 30 minutes a day five days a week benefit number three controls your blood pressure walking can additionally assist lowering blood pressure by way of improving your blood circulation in a test performed on few people in Japan with mild hypertension they were in about 83 people who had worked or rusev were supposed to walk 10,000 steps a day for 12 weeks and at the end of 12 weeks they confirmed a substantial drop in their blood pressure and had an increased amount of stamina if you cannot walk 10,000 steps per day at least stroll for 30 minutes each day to hold your manager to control your blood pressure and keep it in check benefit number 4 monitor and manage blood glucose level now going on quick walks on a normal discipline or daily basis can assist improve fasting and post Millie blood glucose level health experts endorse no less than 5,000 steps a day and within those 5,000 around more than 3,000 of those steps should be a brisk walk that helps to manipulate assists or manage your diabetes type 2 diabetes benefit number 5 toughen or strengthens bone and relax joint movements regular taking walks strengthens bones by using or enhancing the lubrication and between joints and strengthening and firming your muscles benefit number 6 builds lung capacity now walking can additionally amplify your lung capacity when you walk you breathe in more oxygen as compared to when you are stationary now this change of oxygen and carbon dioxide at a large extent can assist make your lung capacity bigger better stronger and thereby it helps you grow stamina and workout performance benefit number 7 strengthens your immune functions now walking helps minimize regular attacks of contamination and it boosts immunity in a study few individuals were asked to stroll on treadmill for about 30 minutes twice a week for 10 weeks at the end they showed extended immune function and infection risk was kinda reduced to a good extent benefit number eight better gastrointestinal function apart from preserving desirable meals habit and consuming water you additionally need to stroll or work to improve gastrointestinal function studies have proven that low intensity exercise has a protective role in the gastrointestinal or disorder it improves the more the the gastrointestinal motility and blood flow in the the tract however there is a very limited or very very constrained evidence on its impact on irritable bowel syndrome IBS and constipation benefit number 9 reduces stress and improves mood walking can help limit stress levels with the aid of improving circulation which in turn provides nutrients and oxygen to the cells now these cells are to a tune of 30 to 100

QxfL33YDGU4 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QxfL33YDGU4 | Dr Kevin McGuigan: The Human Body is the Ultimate Physics Laboratory: Part 2 | biology students in the class what's saliva for the digestive system if you talk to a biologist say oh well saliva is the first part of the digestive process the enzymes in the saliva digest proteins and carbohydrates complete rubbish it does do that but the primary function of saliva is to act as a lubricant to get the fruit food from your mouth to the stomach and i can show you very easily why that's the case with a little challenge do we have two volunteers and preferably i'd like to get a lady up to do that as the other volunteer i've given this talk six times in the last three days i've never had a problem getting a volunteer and all of a sudden in carlo i need a second one come on or alternatively alternatively we could ask the teachers to to nominate the most poorly behaved student but the honor of carlo is at stake we need we need another volunteer okay maybe another bloke then if there's no ladies well done thank you very much so what we're going to do is the cream cracker challenge and it's very straightforward all you have to do is eat four cream crackers but you have to do it in two minutes and i have the cream crackers here a fresh practice i should you open that and give yourself four and four for the lady now i also have to do some ground rules if you feel you can't go any further and you need a drink there's a bottle of water for you each but if you go for the water you forfeit the challenge okay so you you lose how many have you four and you have four right it's okay it was the ten second rule if so the other thing is people are often sometimes what they do is they shove all four into their mouth at the same time and that that always ends poorly because people tend to gag so if if you think you're going to be sick that's what that's for so the bottle of water is for the end anyway so you won't be sitting there with a mouthful of sawdust so what we're going to do is we're going to start it's a competition see how many you can eat in in two minutes five four three two one oh where'd you go now the thing is cream crackers absorbs the saliva very effectively so these people will be able to eat the first two quite easily the third will be a struggle but the fourth one will be almost impossible it will be a bit like trying to swallow broken glass don't worry go on far ahead don't so we've got 30 seconds gone how many do you have not even one eaten yet okay so the it's the battle of the sexes here now and i noticed you're you're a very messy eater you see you're losing a lot of thrones on the floor that's a really sneaky trick that one is i was uh in court two days ago when we did this and the lady was losing so she just went over and she grabbed his cream crackers and he wouldn't let me finish the last of two but you leave his crackers alone all right we've got 35 seconds left how many cream crackers there's still two left 20 seconds left now there's one thing it's it's one thing it's one thing getting into your mouth it's a whole different business getting it swallowed five four three two one there you go thanks very much you can see you never really thought about saliva as a lubricant but there it is it's a vital part of of the whole process right now that you've eaten thinking about the thoracic cavity you've got your lungs inflating you've got your heart pumping everything's moving and it's rubbing up against each other you have to make sure there's no friction that's going to cause any kind of abrasions so you can see on the outside of the lung we have this glassy membrane whose sole function is to act as a lubricating boundary to stop any problems so the body is a very sophisticated uh engine where friction control is concerned so back to mechanics if you do mechanics almost the first thing you learn about is uh newton's laws of motion and his first law is probably the most important one objects at a fixed velocity prefer to stay at that velocity and will resist efforts to change this resistance is called inertia and we can see an example of it here here comes the cat now with a skid it's a funny thing because you're relying on frictional forces to keep you on the road a particular type of friction called static friction even though the wheels are going round it's static friction but then if you start to skid it changes the frictional force to a thing called kinetic friction and the kinetic friction is always less than the static friction and it's the ultimate practical joke that physics plays on drivers the moment that the skid starts that's the time when you need as much traction as possible but the science takes away half of the force you need to regain control so most kids as soon as you started the skid you're at the mercy of inertia you're just going to continue in a straight line at a fixed velocity until something decelerates you it might be a tree a bridge these kind of things newton's second law anybody know what newton's second law is oh very simple force is mass by acceleration fear not there's going to be no mathematics here we can muck about with that and we get an equation like this now i want you to think of another situation granny mcguigan is going to the shops in her car and she hits a tree so she's decelerated from 60 kilometers per hour to zero and the extent of her injuries is determined solely by this term here this is the force that she's subjected to that's her mass that's her final velocity zero her original velocity one the size of the force she's subjected to is determined by the interaction time anywhere where you have a very sudden change in velocity you need a big force to do that and if you apply a big force to the body that usually results in injury so sudden acceleration sudden deceleration usually means injury | Institute of Physics | UCPKnBhy8PqPLapWIZ7orlKQ |

Dy9l1g8pc1c | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dy9l1g8pc1c | Massive Mars Asteroid Impact: 2 Billion Craters Unearthed | #Studio64Podcasts | [Music] hey everybody Welcome to Studio 64 podcast my name's David and uh been searching around the web for some more science space and Tech news to share with you and I found this over again at space.com yes very interesting giant Mars asteroid impact creates vast field of Destruction with two billion craters yeah sounds like Christmas time with my relatives visiting yes an asteroid struck Mars 2. 3 million years ago throwing debris across a region of the planet equal to four times the length of the Grand Canyon wow absolutely incredible yeah you wouldn't want to be wouldn't want to be there you know going about your daily business look up and see that coming out you would you no over 2 million years ago a giant asteroid slammed into Mars scarring the surface with one massive crater around two billion and about 2 billion smaller individual craters these secondary craters appear across a region of 1,000 M or 18800 km making this asteroid event one of the biggest impacts seen on the red planet in relatively recent history asteroids massive enough to create widespread destruction like this are estimated to impact Mars Just Once in every 3 million years so yeah it looks like they're headed for another one yes the impact occurs at the equator of Mars in a region humanity is named elisium Pia H isn't that will say the name of the uh floating dock from Star Trek where all the ships go to get repaired H if I'm wrong let me know any trekkies down there um yeah any um planetary science or astronomers or astrophysicist out there feel free to comment on these uh these videos CU I absolutely love to hear from you it's awesome thanks yes it left behind a main 8.6 mile 13.9 km wide and a 0.62 m 1 1 km deep crater named corinto the secondary craters from the impact on the other hand ranging size from 656 ft or 200 M to8 of a mile 1.3 km in diameter and extend outwards in a large race system according to the scientist behind the results now aspite being 2.3 million years old the crater in its secondaries some of which are carved into lva flows originating from the summit of the extinct Martian volcano alium mons are considered to be extremely young by the team now corinto crater is a fresh impact crater in alysium pla that produced one of the most extensive systems of thermal rays and secondary craters on Mars extending around 1,243 miles or 2,000 km to the South and covering a nearly 180° archon Mars the team wrote in a related study look at that yeah the Mars little illustration shows the Mars reconnaissance orbit of collecting data in situ around the red planet God I love this stuff not a scientist myself as I've said before I just love it all planetary science astronomy you know aerospace engineering computer science all Sciences this it excites me and how they all tie together as I you know you've got you know EXO geologists looking at rocks on Mars but they they they couldn't get information on those rocks without the aerospace engineers and the computer software guys you know it's a team effort even the people at back at bloody home base that bring you your Cups of Tea or something it's you're all you all do different jobs but you're part of the same team so you could be down there working on ways of eventually land on Mars you know growing Hydroponics for food probably other things at 420 but we won't go into that but you know it's a it's a massive team effort from multiple disciplines is what I'm trying to get at and it's very exciting and I love all of it the authors explained how they employed both thermal and visible Imaging data uh collected by NASA's Mars reconnaissance Rover to describe the crater and blanket of fragments or ejector thrown into the Martian Atmosphere by the impact ejector refers to any material that's ejected from a crater as a result of some impact in this case the ejector of pieces of Mars shot out from the giant main crater cavity formed due to the asteroids crash now this data gathered by the spacecraft's highresolution Imaging experiment or highrise and context camera CTX instruments was given to a machine learning program that separated this impact ejector cause um this impacts ejector cause craters from other Martian craters originating from asteroid strikes um events specifically yes you'll have to excuse me my fumble my words sometimes because I got to bit carried away with myself I just get so excited with stuff this information was then used to estimate the age of the impact and the total number of secondary craters the initial impact generated measuring the distribution of secondary craters extending out from corinto the team found that the greatest concentrations to the South and Southwest of the main crater there are there is a lack of ejector to the north of the crater which scientists think indicates that the asteroid caused this Devastation um uh entered the red planet's atmosphere at an angle of around 30 to 40° from the North or Northeast now the furthest secondary craters found by the researchers indicated that some of the objective from the impact were launched as far as 1,150 Mi or 1,850 km that's about 4 times the length of the Grand Canyon that's interesting isn't it yeah a little image there of graphical representation of the ejector debris field extending from corinto Wow cool all right so the secondary craters didn't just vary in distance from the main Impact Zone and size however the team behind the findings also classified them in relation to their shape some were found and semi round and semi circular While others others appeared flattened circular or elliptical now the researchers determined that the shape or morphology taken by the secondary craters related to the speed at which the fragments that created them were ejected the size of those fragments and the surface composition of the Martian region on which they crashed now close to corinto the secondary craters took the form of semicircles with elliptical shaped craters found it further from the main Impact Zone yeah that's incredible isn't it and it's interesting that we'd probably be due for a very large impact crater at some point here on Earth uh we're lucky that our atmosphere burns up a lot of them otherwise you know there'd be a lot more damage but uh yeah it's it's very very interesting the large number of secondary craters formed by corinto are consistent with the most with most of the ejected material being strong competent bassal the team wrote bass salts are volcanic rocks formed by the rapid cooling of lava rich in magnesium and iron oh that's something I didn't know yeah I'm as I said you know just understand basic vulcanism but that's really about it I know it gets hot and you burn yourself Just Don't Go Near it that's about as much as I know so the fragments likely represent lava that previously spewed from the volcano that the asteroids slammed into now the composition of some of the ejector launched from Mars's service by Surface by this asteroid impact indicate the space rocks slam down into water or ice this is also indicated by pits spread across the floor of the cinto crater which imply the drainage of water or gas released by the effect of the impact on Ice Rich materials yes the team's results were presented at the 55th annual Luna and planetary science convention in Texas earlier in March this year absolutely amazing stuff isn't it and as I said love sharing this um this uh you know the space news with you and Science and Tech stuff it's just absolutely incredible we're learning more and more every day about our own solar system which in turn teaches us more about our own Planet absolutely incredible all right well my name is David thanks for joining me for another Studio 64 podcasts science space and Tech news update I shall see you in the next one and if you enjoyed this video please like share subscribe I greatly appreciate and if you're up for it drop a comment down below the video cuz i' love to hear what you think all right take care and as I always say if you can't be good be good at it and as I also always say I'll be back | Studio64 Podcasts | UCHQxQ6fc8bVXH8pewcCAoRA | 2024-04-03 | Creative Commons Attribution

JhEkLhxEPIc | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JhEkLhxEPIc | Democrats Keep Letting Republicans Steamroll Them: Incompetence or Malfeasance? | so as many of you know on Tuesday the Senate reached a deal on phase four of the corona stimulus package and predictably Chuck Schumer and the Democrats got absolutely nothing now I shouldn't actually say that they got nothing because they think that they got something they think that there's victory and their defeat or at least that's what they're telling us that they think they got something but in actuality this is embarrassing and I think that this story it's really forcing people to come to terms with the fact that we need a new explanation for the way that Democrats are governing because we can't just keep calling them incompetent if they never learn from their mistakes we have to at some point assume malicious intent we have to assume that maybe things are panning out exactly as they'd want them to pan out because it's not like they don't know how to play politics we just saw the entire Democratic Party establishment coalesce around Joe Biden to crush the left so their strategic their savvy they you know how to play politics it's just that in instances like this maybe they're doing exactly as much as they think they need to do to appease their donors so let's take a look at this Jeff Stein of the Washington Post explains these were the things not expected to be included in the build hazard pay for frontline workers additional funding for states and cities election security which would probably include vote-by-mail because that would keep Americans secure during a pandemic assuming it goes on until November more oversight of the previous bailout additional revenue for food stamps Iran frees another stimulus check I mean you could make the case that they shouldn't agree to anything if all of these things are not included especially after they just went along with a multi trillion dollar bailout I mean I don't think people fully grasp the ramifications of that right so after they went along with that either willingly or unwillingly to get people that twelve hundred dollar check I mean I would not agree to anything if we didn't get at least four of these things but let's just like take out one and really think through the importance let's think about election security and vote-by-mail if this isn't something that gets codified into law by November Democrats are basically throwing this election away if the pandemic is still going to you know require us to self quarantine because thing about this there's a growing contingent of the Republican Party their base in particular that doesn't even believe in coven 19 like put aside the people who think that we should sacrifice our lives for capitalism there's people who just outright think it's a hoax so if given the choice between staying home and you know playing it safe not voting or risking your life to vote in a pandemic in November who's going to be you know the one who is hurt by this the most if we don't get vote-by-mail Republicans are gonna come out no matter what they're gonna vote for Republicans but if Democrats don't get vote-by-mail do you honestly think that more rational people theoretically speaking are going to risk their lives no it's gonna be the people who think that we should just allow the virus to wash over America and that's even if they believe it's true in the first place so like do you understand if they don't get vote by mail and this pandemic persists until November this election is a wrap Democrats lose and I mean think about this a hundred million people didn't even vote in 2016 Republican voters will not be deterred because of kovat nineteen so if you don't get this done if you don't throw it into any bill then I mean you're throwing this election away but Chuck Schumer doesn't think or he doesn't want us to think that they didn't get anything because he tweeted out the bill before us is an interim measure it has hard-won provisions Democrats fought for but it's a building block in the weeks ahead Congress must prepare another major bill big bold and ambitious so don't worry guys we know this bill isn't great but in the next bill it's gonna be better we promise now the hard-won provisions that he's referring to here I mean these are objectively good things that are needed increased funding for hospitals increased funding to the tune of I think 25 billion dollars for test kits for kovat 19 but imagine being naive enough to think that that's a victory that you won this is something that Republicans need as well right they can't continue to look competent if they don't propose some sort of additional funding for hospitals additional funding for test kits so basically what I can imagine happening is Mitch McConnell was probably trying to make a deal with Chuck Schumer and said hey look we'll we'll give you 25 million for COBIT funding test funding and Chuck Schumer just thought that he won when Mitch McConnell was probably going to have to give some funding away anyway like they think that they won and they lost but yet he's still thinking that we should appreciate all of the hard work that he put in when he rolled over and died immediately not once but now twice or excuse me four times because what what phase are we on now this is face form I mean this is just it's genuinely embarrassing and I want to go through what this contains here because it really is like even what they managed to get here if we're gonna assume that they should take credit for the additional funding for hospitals and test kits um even what they got wasn't sufficient so if you're just going to draw that line add you know Hospital funding and test kits why not get an adequate amount of funding but they couldn't even get that so as Owen Haggard's of common dreams explains the bill does include 321 billion for small businesses seventy-five billion for hospitals and 25 billion for coronavirus testing but the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities president Robert Greenstein that's not enough while providing needed support to small businesses and hospitals the new kovat 19 package announced today falls short even as an interim measure failing to deliver crucial state and local fiscal relief and food assistance Greenstein said in a statement Tuesday critics of the bill pointed out that House Democrats could have moved to pass their own bill addressing issues important to progressives but did they choose to do that no so it doesn't matter that they have the House of Representatives and they could do something like that they could propose their own stimulus relief package and say look we just passed a clean bill that provides every single American $2,000 per month for the duration of this pandemic and they could just hammer Republicans over and over again on every cable news show like they could easily do that and force the Republicans to actually give them this victory even if they're taking the other shitty bailouts for large multi-billion dollar companies but they won't even do the bare minimum they won't even do the bare minimum and what's insane to me is that after they passed that massive multi trillion-dollar bailout with the last bill they went along with it with almost no oversight they didn't even try to improve the oversight in this new package they just threw their hands up and rolled over and died again and what's really astonishing is that after they got no oversight they're not really trying to get any additional oversight as staff writer for the Atlantic atom sewer put it Democrats in Congress are doing no oversight over Trump's mishandling of the pandemic and I've had to Trump millions with no strings attached but at least there are also caving on everything else so in other words they got no oversight of that multi trillion-dollar bailout last time no oversight of that multi trillion dollar bill at this time and what did they get in exchange for giving up oversight nothing zero zero concessions nothing oh excuse me they got additional funding for hospitals and Kovan 19 test kits something that is also mutually beneficial for Republicans as well and okay I shouldn't actually say that they got no oversight because according to them they have oversight that they're really proud of so there's a five-person oversight Commission and there is what 262 I think Democrats in the House of Representatives so Nancy Pelosi is tasked with putting people on that Commission she could have chose any one of these individuals who does she choose perhaps one of the least qualified members of the House of Representatives freshman congresswoman Donna shillelagh who doesn't have any expertise when it comes to the regulation of the financial services industry on top of that she is a criminal because she didn't disclose the sale of her stocks last year which is a pretty brazen violation of the stocks act and after Nancy Pelosi chose to name this crooked politician to oversee crooked industries making an even bigger mockery of the so called oversight Commission there were expectedly calls for Pelosi to replace her with anyone else I mean Nancy Pelosi literally has hundreds of options anyone she could replace Donna shillelagh with but what was her response when this huge corruption scandal broke out as she's going to oversee a multi trillion dollar bailout no I'm not gonna withdraw this nomination of Donna shillelagh what not joking so as roll call reporter Kris Marquette tweeted speaker Pelosi will not withdraw her nomination of representative Donna shillelagh to the congressional oversight Commission after the Miami Herald reported she failed to disclose her stock transactions a requirement for all members of Congress under the stock Act drew Hamill a spokesperson for Pelosi said congresswoman shillelagh has the speaker's complete confidence as she works to hold the administration accountable to the taxpayer through the cares congressional oversight Commission since coming to Congress congresswoman shillelagh has taken aggressive steps to avoid even the suggestion of a conflict of interest over her personal investments Hamill said in an email representative shillelagh has taken responsibility for her mistake in missing filings required under the stag Act and has been working with the ethics committee to address this issue since she became aware of it he added there are no words to describe how absurd the situation is and think of how brazen they are in trying to Gaslight you like this is gaslighting 101 they're peeing on your leg and they're trying to convince you that it's raining so in response to Donna shillelagh not disclosing the sale of her stocks which is illegal mind you they end up praising her saying how moral and ethical she is because she doesn't want there to be conflict of interest because she sold her stocks no you don't praise her in this circumstance you lambaste her you punish her strip her of her committee assignments because she just broke the law Nancy Pelosi and now you're rewarding her with the seat on this toothless committee I don't even know what to say and I think that David Dan journalist for the intercept put it best 16 months of violating the law but as soon as she was aware of doing it a day before her spokesperson lied to me about it she took action amazing yeah I feel amazing and now she's being praised this is unbelievable like this is things that you see in a movie she can pick anyone else I mean it it honestly doesn't matter it's a simple gesture to your base to communicate to them that you still care about morals and ethics throw a [ __ ] dart at the board it doesn't matter pick anyone but she won't do it so getting back to you know all of their incompetence this isn't just incompetence this may be malicious right it's incompetence at best maliciousness nefarious behavior that's intentional at worse but this is really irresponsible for them to keep caving I want to repeat to you they are in control of the House of Representatives they have leverage they have power they can pass their own stimulus bill easily $2,000 a month scream about it on every single cable news show they have their own propaganda outlet MSNBC badger Republicans for not voting on your clean bill to get every single American two thousand bucks a month no questions asked but what are they doing instead Nancy Pelosi is going on late-night television shows bragging about how both of her $11,000 a piece refrigerators have been restocked with ice cream that's what they're doing at a certain point the left needs to acknowledge the likely reality that they're not just incompetent they're not just really really bad at politics they don't know how to play chess they're doing this on purpose they are willfully throwing these fights with Republicans because they're content with the status quo economically speaking they're aligned with Republicans there may be a lot of disagreements with Republicans at least when it comes to rhetoric on social justice issues but on economic issues the Democratic Party and the Republican Party they're simpatico so it's not like they don't have the tools that they need to fight it's not like they don't have the leverage to pressure Republicans to give us a little bit more than crumbs or at least more crumbs they're doing this on purpose you can't just keep assuming that they're incompetent are they incompetent yes but they're doing this on purpose they're losing on purpose they're fighting as well as a boxer who shows up to a match who's paid to throw the fight so stop assuming automatically that they're incompetent even though it's really easy to do that because they're just so painfully seemingly idiotic they're doing this on purpose they know how to play politics they play politics hardcore with the left when it comes to the right getting any sort of policy concessions that would benefit the American people like tangible goods in the hands of Americans money they're not doing that they're rolling over and they're dying and it's just people have to realize what's happening you have to understand that they're also people who must be defeated it's not just Republicans you have to fight Democrats as well because they're clearly not operating on your behalf they're not doing that there's no other logical explanation for their behavior they're not fighting for you and that's on purpose that seems intentional at this point it's just time to people realize what's happening and not accept the gaslighting as we usually do [Music] | The Humanist Report | UC7Q4rvzJDbHeBHYk5rnvZeA | 2020-04-23 |

g3t_lO4_NkE | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g3t_lO4_NkE | DEMONIC ATTACK ON THE CHURCH, PREACHERS & CHRISTIANITY! | i want to respond to the young lady in this video right here i couldn't respond to her on tick tock because for whatever reason she had the stitching blocked so i really couldn't um respond to her video but i'm going to respond to it here and hope that she sees this video all due respect sir i don't understand why christian christians go so hard especially meditated christians go so hard for a religion that was conditioned to hold marinated people down myself personally i've never felt held down i'm 61 years old and i've never been held down if i was ever in a place in my life where i felt held down it was because i kept myself from advancing forward i can't blame someone for holding me down now i may run into um if i'm pursuing a certain career or a job or uh yeah they can stop me from getting that but that don't stop my grind i'm gonna always find a way around that legally doesn't necessarily mean that you have to do something illegal to make it in life and see that's the problem with a lot of quote unquote melanated people is that they put their life in someone else's hand i've always had control of my life and my decisions now i don't recall ever saying that i was a christian see you got my comment right above your head and you keep saying the problem with christians when did i ever say that i was a christian not only that you said especially melanated people i don't color code my life and the color of my skin does not dictate the choices and decisions that i make in life see my life does not revolve around the color of my skin that may be good for you but not for me so don't put me in the same category as a lot of black americans because i'm in i'm an entirely different person i'm an individual i think for myself color does not dictate my life they use that bible for slavery there is no why would god be jealous why would he be a jealous god when he made man in his image yeah the bible makes sense to me well now there's a script in the bible that says if this gospel be hid is hit to those that are lost so when i hear people say the bible don't make sense to me and then they have all these excuses as to why they don't follow the bible or as of why they don't attend church or why they don't believe in god to me it's an excuse so if you don't understand it that tells me right there that you never studied the bible you've never studied the bible if this gospel be hid is hit to those that are lost i did it i did about this i did christianity i did a pasta i did muslim i did jehovah witness well maybe you need to settle down and stay in one place and learn something you've been in all of these so-called religions and you're still complaining maybe the problem is not the religion itself maybe the problem is you so maybe it's not baptist or uh catholicism or jehovah witness or muslim or islam maybe it's you maybe you're the problem and not the religions because if you were in all of those religions and you didn't learn nothing and you're still not content it goes back to that scripture i told you about if this gospel be hid it's hit to those that are lost and it just never made sense to me it just it never made sense to me spirituality i'm home now like i mentioned in a prior video about spirituality see a lot of y'all like to use spirituality but spirituality is comprised of roaches and rats and stink bugs and maggots and feces and flies and you get my point it's a combination of a lot of things and a lot of y'all are always talking about demons and tapping into your demon energy and calling upon demons and all of this nonsense but have you ever seen a demon in its true form because if you saw a demon in his true form you wouldn't be making this video seeing a demon in his true form changes your whole outlook on life itself you're never the same when you see a demon in its truest form and it's not a pretty sight sorry can you go and look up is the geist on youtube that z-e-i-t-g-i-s-t the guys i've already done my research on zeitgeist okay long time ago a long time ago i've already done my research on zeitgeist as a bunch of crap now you just got done talking about melanated people and slavery and white men and all this nonsense whose belief system is that that start that was started by white folks it wasn't started by melanated people as you say so did you do your research on zeitgeist or did you just see uh one chapter or video that you're trying to reference me to see see you don't know what you want to do you don't know who you are or where you are i'll continue the documentary look at part one documentary okay and they'll show you they're gonna tell you why christianity was invented who was they you mean the white people that's in zeitgeist those white people the slave masters children okay it's not real it's to brainwash in control catholics y'all christians and catholics look at all the molestations the child trafficking i bet your democrat and the democrats are heavy into child trafficking how do you think your ancestors got here through slavery the democrats but yet a lot of you so-called melanated people is holding tight to the democrat party joe biden says if you ain't if you don't vote for him you ain't black but what do you do for black people since he's been in office right but when he started talking about child pedophilia and sleeping in the church the preachers sleeping with people but yet what about the democrats what about your people i'm gonna say that's in the same sex relationships now you talk about preachers that's sleeping with women now that tells me right there that you hadn't studied the bible because the bible tells you about the wolfson sheep clothing tells you about the false christ and the false prophets that's supposed to come it's going to deceive many so that tells me right there that you really didn't study the bible okay but at least that preacher that man is going after the opposite sex at least he's looking at women and he's not looking at another man see so you could talk about who is sleeping with who in the church but what about you have you been with the same sex have you committed adultery or fornication and not to even mention the number of you folks out there that's into bestiality but that's another topic by these preachers and pastors what about the past i was raised up in the church where the pastor was sleeping with all the women in the congregation then why were you still in that church why did you remain in that church where the pastor was sleeping with every woman in the congregation and if he slept with every woman in the congregation that means he slept with you and your mama am i wrong what god told him to do that you know to each his own we do we have our own that's the thing about free will we have the choice to choose what we want to be in go sir please go look at that documentary our foes being praying to these our oppressors god not ours not meditated god not ours theirs so you want me to go look at the the white oppressor that started zeitgeist you want me to listen to those people and be very brainwashed by those people be conditioned by zeitgeist the slave masters children is that is that what you're saying to me black christians they be the main ones like pounding the most hatred stuff i'm not saying it's you i'm just going by the experiences that i have had with meditated christians i'm not even talking about the snowflakes not that i'm talking about my own people spirituality ain't it so are you telling are you talking about the blacks that kill blacks right because there's a lot of that going on more blacks have killed blacks have killed more blacks than lives that were taken i say in the vietnam war and all the wars that were here in the united states and all the blacks that were killed during slavery are doing captivity see the black on black violence and crime and killing supersedes that not to mention the number of abortions where black females or better yet as you say melanated females are aborting their children they even have signs of to say the most dangerous place for an unborn child is in the womb of his black mother that's the most dangerous place for an unborn black child is in the womb of his black mother and you're talking about christians and preachers think twice about that you haven't really done much studying have you ain't for everybody it really not just like christianity if that's what you want to do all means do it just don't knock nobody else's stuff please go look at that documentary it's going to change your whole mind your hope is going to change your whole outlook if you all right so that's enough for that but um it's quite interesting huh so it's sad that you have a lot of so-called melanated people that's got the same mentality she does i mean you complain about the church you complain about the preachers you talk about what the preachers are doing what their christians are doing but yet you are democrat you support your bible you know you guys black on black murder you got black females against black men and black men against black females you got black females rejecting their children murdering your children from the womb not even giving your child a chance to live and you have the audacity to talk about the church see no everybody at church is not perfect but those people are in the right place to get right so you you can't come to church and expect to be right you if there's a if you find a perfect church anywhere any perfect religion then it's not perfect anymore because now you're there see so at least they're in the right place to get right but when you have people that's drifting like that he was catholic muslim christian jehovah witness church of god in christ church of god by faith methodist apostolic you're all of those things but you haven't learned anything so maybe the problem is you and not the church | ELDER FEARLESS EXTREME🎤 ⚔️ | UC285YSZFy5lJkQ-4fnXbI4Q | 2022-09-02 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse

YCxSM135w20 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YCxSM135w20 | Digital Communications 4 (ENG 4052) | hi this is a video demonstrating the transmission of an image over an air gap using ofdm as part of this we are required to convolutionally encode our data into an audio file in preparation for the transmission we are going to be using these speakers in this microphone and this amazing cardboard box to transmit the audio through the boxes so that there will be inter-symbol interference created and the jacket in here is to slightly reduce these reflections it is also to make sure that there is no direct line or sight between the speaker and the microphone this is us preparing our data for transmission we're about to take an image this image here and we're gonna um encode it into our wav file for transmission using this transmit or fdm matlab fail to run there we go let's test the wav file that we've produced and there's no speakers plugged in so this speakers have been plugged in so we will just cut to the actual setting of data this is our transmission side this is our receiver side we're using socks on both sides on both transmission and receiving sides so in the box you can see we've got a microphone and a receiver side speaker on the transmission side okay so let's get to it ready on three two one do so that was the end transmission and now we're gonna go ahead and try and decode the received audio file all right so we've got three different m files for three slightly different methods of decoding our received signal the first one we've got is um it's called receive ofdm no phase it's not using the phase of the pilots to correct the start of the signal it's just using the cyclic prefix it detects the peak of the cycle previous and then says all right okay this is basically the start symbol and then it um reads the whole peak it says okay that finds the max says this is the symbol start and then goes through the rest of the decoder so it's basically you know doing the band past modulation right there and then it's uh remapping the furrier spectrum and that bit uh getting all the frequencies in the right order and then going skipping the pilots getting rid of the pilot tones convolutionally deep down it's conflictingly decoding the data just in the same way we're composting encoded it's you know the receiving side is completely decoding it and with the pseudorandom data and that should give us well should you know and then there's an attempt at getting our image back so just give that a run all right so that's gone through and tried to record um it's not a huge amount of success you can still kind of make out his face but it's inverted it's not exactly been a good decoder basically and that's uh yeah it's not great so there's all our peaks from our cycle prefix and we can see it's taking like 32 seconds until to run so let's move on to the next method percent error rate as 89 for therefore only 11 retrieved obviously so now we're going to go on to our second m-file our receive m-file which uses the phase angle of pilots at the current position and then uses that to adjust the phase of the complex frequency signals and we're doing that with this line here in particular again we're still using the cyclic prefix for coarse tuning up the top if we run this file this takes roughly the same amount of time as no phase however it has a much better bet error rate or much less better rate we should see around 14 or 15 error we can already see it's much much improved there we are it's recognizable taking almost almost the same time just slightly longer but vastly improved image recovery okay and from there we've got our final method what we do here is um it's slightly more computationally expensive so our code is exactly the same we're still finding our each one of our cyclic prefix starts here this is becoming our symbol star so we run through it for each of these symbols and what we're doing here is on this line we're taking our course detection and we're checking the areas around there to see if the symbol has shifted slightly one way or another this means that the code will take much much longer to run as we are for each possible start selection we are decoding every single one of them therefore we're doing this around 20 times for each so this loop here should take about um 20 times longer than a single pass in the other time however we expect to see far greater results as we're finding the exact um symbol start again we are using um our phase error to adjust the the frequency samples here before it is put back into a bit stream okay that's all the same let's run that run and tame it yeah two seconds we're just running the wrong fail okay we ran the wrong file bear with us okay double pass run in time okay and here we are on the receive side of the double pass as you can see very little error here and you can see einstein there and all its glory um the statement only gives us a seven percent

8WG4gF36aEE | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8WG4gF36aEE | Gold Vein discovered with quarts. You can see several quarts rocks indicating gold from this whole. | thank you all right so I found an old digging here pile here y'all lots of uh courts I actually have some of these quartz registering his gold on the gold Monster 1000 you can see I got some big pieces of quartz here you know you know they they did quite a bit of digging in here you can see the big hole in here yo and these big pieces of uh cords that came out yo so I got my gold monster back in here doing some more testing these rocks here these pile of rocks over here they actually all indicated that there was gold in them yo it's probably about 10 pieces I got another piece there that I took home last weekend they were all indicating gold as you can see there's a good quartz vein in there right in the middle yo and it's nice and thick yo of course this has been here for years as you can see there's lots of uh debris and the hole itself we have different rock formations on it yo somebody made a nice big old pile of uh the rock here but I got a nice signal over here we're gonna see if we can dig it up and see if uh there's any gold in there let's see if we can find any gold we've got a nice good at Cold indication actually it's wavering back right now it's solid the solid gold indication oh looks like a little piece of metal a little piece of metal let's check it again okay so that's all that oops so an indication there so let's uh see what's in that indication there oh yeah oh okay another little piece of metal [Music] s I'll take you around with the gold monster show you those rocks this is that rock is indicating gold in it let's move it out of the way so we can check it a little further this is assistant of course you can see is right on the rock but so we're gonna take that rock put it over in the other pile give you a little better close-up view of it foreign if we got anything else in here there's another one let's move that one out of the way get some testing done see as you see the gold monsters completely reading gold I'll take that one and throw that over in the pile as well this this that one's kind of wavering this is it that's not indicating gold on that one that indicates gold that's a showing a hot rock on that which is same thing as that showing hot rock but there shows indications of gold the gold Monster 1000 picks up the the smallest amount of gold that will register even though I may not see any gold here on this rock it does indicate that there is gold in it you know now could the gold be in there yeah it is possible foreign because that's pretty solid that's indicating hot rock there actually it's wavering back and forth you know and just to give you an idea so that of course is put in the pile you know a little better close-up view of it you know I mean obviously you know it's a with a regular eye it doesn't fully show if there's gold in it but I can't dismiss uh when the gold monsters registering gold I gotta I gotta collect it foreign | Mr. Nuggets | UCKU0ENNqNyNDI8egd7NbP2w | 2023-03-06 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 589 | 2,913 |

this show is dated December 21st 20,000 and 18 and happy Holidays to everybody the news this week the big news of course was that Ringo and Ron would join Paul on get back at Paul's show in London at the o2 arena on the 16th which was Paul's last show the live show of the year Paul told the audience ahead of time he had a little surprise for him and then an extra drum kit was brought out and Ringo and Ron would join the band [Applause] fantastic mister Ringo said I don't know about you but that was a thrill for me Stella McCartney had spilled the the secret that Ringo and Ron would were there when she posted a picture with Paul backstage before the show Paul also released a new video for who cares from Egypt station his song speaking out against bullying the video also featured Emma Stone he said my hope is that if there are kids being bullied and there are maybe by listening to this song and watching this video they might just think it's not as bad that's the kind of thing you can just stand up to and laugh off and get through in other news Billboard revealed their top 10 best reissues of the year and the deluxe White Album took the top spot they called it a quote a wonderful Wonderland of relevant revelations they ended their comments by saying quote Giles Martin indeed does his father George a wonderful honor by making this most important work in the Beatles Canon all the more essential unquote the wings wildlife and Red Rose Speedway boxes were listed under worth checking out so they did get mentioned and in case you didn't know about this just out at the end of November with a new album called impressions of pepper it's a cover album by a jazz artist of the Beatles Sergeant Pepper album we're not going to read through the whole tracklist but here's a couple

gciMT72M1wY | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gciMT72M1wY | Blender Tutorials | Appetizer series 7 | Materials - Wine - Wineglass | hey guys and welcome to number seven in the appetizer series um today we're going to take a look at how to create the materials for the glass and for the wine um so yeah let's just open up the file we prepared last time which is called episode seven and that's what we're at right now we um textured and materialized now we just we create the material for the table and now it's all about this glass and the wine okay so those materials are a little bit advanced maybe and by the way we're also going to use a texture which might sound weird because it's glass so glass doesn't use a texture but in our case we do because we are going to basically separate this glass into two materials one one glass that is well just glass and the other one that is red because the wine actually touches the glass and it gives just a much a much nicer result if we're actually texturing the glass as well you'll see how that works so let's just start with the wine first let's just take the wine and then let's just hit the slash key okay slash key so now everything except for this class as for this wine is hidden let's just go to solid and that's what it is what it looks like and now just to be to make sure i can't see any wrong things but let's just go into edit mode select everything ctrl n to recalculate all the normals so we are sure that there's nothing wrong because that can give us quite a few problems and once we did that let's go into the materials okay and now um i'm going to set up this material a little bit differently than we did in our in in the picture i actually showed you because i noticed the wine is a little bit too dark it doesn't really let through enough light so we're going going with a slightly lighter color you won't really notice in the final render i believe we'll see we can still adjust it so let's create a new material and now about the color um wine is red and it is really red okay so let's just give it a really really red material like this okay but it's not quite that light it's a bit darker it's something like i'd go with that okay so in my final file that i already showed you the picture it's somewhere around there okay which looks realistic but it's kind of too dark i thought so we're going with a slightly lighter color like this okay about the specular part uh once again an intensity of 0.5 is okay in this case but we're making the specularity a little bit colored okay or actually quite colored to something like there which is quite a strong color but it's going to look quite all right we can still change it later on as well um we just have to change that to word iso and i think that's called word ice so i'm never really sure and let's just change the slope to 0.04 okay um yeah then under the shading tab as always let's just leave that as it is and then we get to transparency and this is actually slightly tricky to set up now for those of you who don't know there is c transparency and ray trace okay see transparency if we um turn the alpha down over here you can see it just becomes transparent like like ghost or something and that is not what you want you want to go with ray traced change the alpha to point zero points actually just to zero um and change the ior to 1.33 okay now 1.33 is the ior for water and in our case it's wine but wine is fairly similar to water i believe and anyway it's uh we are artists we can create whatever we want um if it's not if it's not entirely accurate that's okay and then the ior is actually influenced by the density of an object the denser the high dior and wine is nearly as dense as water so it's not really a big difference and now um the big thing here is filter okay right now you can see this looks like water with a strange red reflection but if you change the filter up you can see it starts to turn red okay and we're going to go with a value of 0.9 for now okay and now about limit and fall off they are a bit tricky to understand limit is kind of um how far light can travel into the wine before it gets completely filtered okay and the falloff is kind of um the follow for the filter effect it's it's a bit weird we're going to talk more about that in the first steps and preparation series in well in the next 10 episodes or so it will take a while because it's quite bothersome or not not bar so it's actually fun to make them but it's quite quite quite intense work to actually figure out all the details so yeah it'll take for some more episodes but um for now let's just set the limit to one and fall off to actually let's just test render this and um to test run we actually need something in the scene so let's just um with slash unhide everything let's just take this glass and this as well and actually everything besides that and the table and all the light because without the light it's fairly boring like this ctrl i h now everything is gone except for the wine um well the camera is gone as well but we don't need the camera we don't need to adjust the camera we can still use it like this now let's just press f12 okay that didn't work my fault i didn't want to press h actually i wanted to press alt h to unhide everything m and then let's move all this to a second layer like this okay once again f12 and now you can see this is supposed to be our wine um it's not too bad it looks a bit weird right now um because of the way it's actually refracting things but that's basically okay it will change quite drastically once we enable the mirror i will see it in a second now one thing i want to change for sure is um the depth okay and the depth is a bit tricky to explain it's like right now if you're looking for with the camera from over here then the light ray passes through this surface and then through this surface and then it shows what's behind over here and that is possible with a depth of two because it's two surfaces that it passes but if you have the glass also then you have a glass glass wine wine glass which means six okay so we would have to work with the depth of fix of six in my opinion um we can still adjust that later on but right now let's go with six and you can already see um right now it took um 3.75 seconds and now it will take 3.74 okay that's not really a big difference but it will change some some after actually including the rest of the the objects okay now this is still fairly dark um but i i i used some reference images and actually um it tends to be pretty dark red wine okay now here towards the edge it should be a bit lighter let's just see if we can actually achieve that in a way okay um so i made a few adjustments here because as i said i cannot really take those numbers from the other file because i'm trying to achieve a different result and i found what works best is if you go with a color slightly lighter than what you had before so um with just about uh the brightness in the middle you can also copy the hex code 880800 if you want to have the exact same colors i have and then a filter of 0.9 falloff one and limit one and depth of six um yeah it's just it's much redder now and the other thing just was too dark for red but you can still change it afterwards it will it will change with the mirror as well after all okay now about the mirror um and by the way what you also have here is the fresnel okay and that just decides on as in mirror um different viewing angles of this object for example if you see something here that's like facing straight to you compared to this thing that's facing over there um a different transparency is achieved but in this case it's kind of not a good idea to use that because there's going to be the mirroring anyway and you won't see it in the end but it's quite an interesting setting after all once again we'll cover that more in depth in the first steps in preparation series then now about the mirror first of all let's enable it and now we want to change the reflectivity to about let me see 0.45 okay and now you can see if we render that i will take some more time probably yes it does you can see it's just a completely reflective thing and a little bit of red shines through but that's not really really what we're going for so that's way too reflective now but we want to keep this 0.45 setting we just want to change the um the threshold okay and one other thing i also wanted to make it want to make it so that it receives transparent shadows okay because it's surrounded by the glass and if it doesn't receive transparent shadows um then it can give problems okay now you want to make it so that the freshly set to 0.1.6 for now and the blend to 1.6 as well and the fresnel kind of decides um after what angle it actually starts to become reflective okay you can see the faces that actually face you straight on they are not reflecting at all reflective at all and then towards the outer regions where they are actually facing away from you they start to be very reflective and the blend is actually deciding how strong this transition is okay and how sharp it is with zero you can see it looks like this again and with 5 you can see that was a bad example with 3 you can see it's a very sharp transition with 1.6 actually in my opinion works best let's just see if that is true and i guess it's not okay and you can see why in a second first of all we have too much reflectivity going on over here and second of all that's the important part if we look at um the original image let me just find it then you can see we got this very nice kind of wave effect going on okay wherever there's a wave we have this uh slightly more reflective area and then a less reflective area and right now in our case everything is you can also see the difference but it's well it's pretty much too reflective overall so and we want to change that we want to change this to 1.9 for now and the blend to 1.8 now let's just render this let's let's save it for change it's always a good thing to do f12 again and let's see what we get and that looks much better but i think we also want to turn down this value here to 0.3 and that actually to one point let's just go with 1.9 so it's supposed to be a quite subtle effect but uh at the moment it's still pretty overpowering yeah now you can actually see um the refractions from the wood table shine through there you can see the reflections and it looks quite nice okay so let's leave the wine like this for now actually we could make it a little bit it's a bit too red right now let's make it a little bit darker like this like somewhat like this let's see once again and yeah that looks that looks pretty decent okay now you can if you want give it a slightly purple touch if you're like a very some wines have a slightly purple chapter but anyway you can that's up to you can use whatever you want you can also make it a white wine anyway that's it for the material for the red wine now with alt h let's bring everything back oh no we cannot do that we have to grab the glass over here move the glass to the first layer go over here and move the wine to the second layer for now okay like this now for the glass material we are going to use a texture for the color okay so this color here has no effect at all afterwards but for now um it does because we don't we did not yet assign a texture to this material so we're going to leave it at white for now because this way you can see it won't influence the color if you use the filter effect that we just did with the other material so we are going to use the um the diffuse shader as it is oh by the way i did not explain that with the other materials yet diffuse is kind of like what is lit and what is shadowed what is what is litmus darkness speckler is just the reflection where um you know the straight reflections from the lamp so diffuse is quite usually especially with the transparent materials it really doesn't matter a lot what you use over here okay so lambert is quite all right next thing is specularity once again word iso and actually quite similar settings to before 0.04 for um slope and intensity of 0.2 at this time class isn't as reflective as wine is that true i don't know but it looks it looks just great the way it does i believe um we can leave the color here as it is because we don't have a colored glass and even if glass usually doesn't color reflections anyway shading as always leave it as it is and then the transparency once again ray trace and then we want to go with a ior of 1.618 okay the ior of glass is essentially a 1.45 i guess but we are artists we can do whatever we want and i thought 1.618 gives us a nice result we can play with that afterwards or you can play with it if you want and see how it behaves now about the filter we want to set the filter all the way to one okay and alpha to 0.05 by the way we don't want it to be zero because usually glasses aren't completely transparent because even if you have them in the washer just for once they already start being a slightly milky okay so 0.05 is really very subtle influence of the diffuse color yeah what did i want to say exactly we're going to set the filter to 1 which means that this color affects um the color of the uh of the material 100 but since this is white we cannot see the effect okay between one and zero you can see it's a slight difference actually let me just put that all the way to white now you can see it's no difference at all and that's okay because we're using a texture to actually influence that we're using a falloff of one as well and we can actually leave those things by div as default okay except for the depth okay because right now if we render this you can see that's what we get now it looks quite nice over here and over here but as you can see over here as well we have the diffuse color of the material which is white and it's it appears gray because it is slightly shaded and you can see if we look oh here we have the problem and here we have that issue and that is because the rays have to pass one have to pass um one surface two surfaces three surfaces and from here on it only renders things in diffused color because we have only a depth of two same over here the ray passes uh this surface and this surface and then over here it renders this part just as solid okay which is not what we want of course so we have to think about the depth um in this case four seems to be an appropriate number one two three four but we also have the wine in between which makes one two three four five six okay so six seems to be appropriate once again um however we'll see if that's if that's enough let's just render this and yeah this looks actually fairly nice um cool cool google if you know albert from um community college anyway um next thing we're going to do is we are going to let me just see uh select the mirror okay because right now you can see there it's not mirroring anything and that's usually not the way it is we have a slight reflection going on even with gloss or actually in our case quite a strong one because um i'll show you that later in our case we have a reflectivity of 0.6 which is fairly high actually a fractional effect of one 1.6 i'm sorry and a blend of 1.6 as well you can see what that looks like over here a slight reflection on the edge going on there which looks quite cool oh and one thing i forgot to adjust is the depth of the wine let's just do over here the wine and if we increase that depth then it allows inter-reflections okay and that just means let me explain it on the glass here if i look to over here okay then i can in on here i can see this part being mirrored okay and then in here i should see this part being mirrored okay and then in here um i should see is the environment being mirrored but it could also be that i felt if i take a glance in here and then the rays kind of bounce back and forth okay and that just describes how often those boats bounces can happen and still be considered in the reflection okay and two is not enough let's go with three um that was the wine material right okay one do the same thing with the glass material that just means it can it can bounce like boom boom boom and that's enough we can still adjust that as well let's see what that looks like let me just pause okay and that's what we get um and you can see this nice reflection here towards the outer edge of the glass and you can also see this gradient effect here from white to slightly bluish and that's actually quite cool because you can see over here in the final image you can then with color with color correction and get this nice um transition from blue to a slightly darker blue okay that's i think that's always quite a desirable thing and now that we're okay with that as well we might as well bring both things together let me see if i forgot something no of course not one thing we also need to set that to receive transparent because it's supposed to shadow itself and then we also also tack it over here perfect now let's just bring back the the wine and one thing to consider is that it took 12 seconds before using this the reflections and now it takes one minute and seven seconds okay so you can see um calculating reflections is quite a time intense thing it really increases your rendering times but it just gives a great effect and it really adds to the realism now what i don't like in this case is all those reflections okay so we'll have to turn that down later but for now let's just see how it turns out in the end okay so let's just um did i not just move that to over there oh we have on both layers that's okay as well and now let's just render that and once again going to pause the recording cool so it's finished and you can see now we have a stunning two minutes and 18 seconds so you can easily see where all the render times have come from especially from mirrors and now that we have two mirror objects in the same scene at mirror things it's even more intense but it is necessary otherwise you won't get the right idea and now you can also see the specular reflections are now being um colored by the wine and it gives quite a cool effect in my opinion um if you don't want that you can just change it you can just turn that reflections on the glass because they are not even i mean the specularity on the glass because they're not even that important since we have reflections but or you can just um turn down the intensity if you want but i i actually like it this way but you can see one problem um this this wine is basically red or at least very dark but it doesn't really influence the color of the glass of course and if you can see on my final image it looks like this and i really like this dark effect on the glass itself because on this red effect on the glass itself okay so how to achieve that we need to make it so this glass is basically the way it is right now except for the area um in here okay where the wine touches the glass okay this area has to be red or i want it to be red okay um so how to go about that let's just hide the wine or let's just unhide it and move it to the second layer only again and let's look at the glass we need to create a texture that is then uv mapped onto this glass so that it makes everything white except for that part in here that we were talking about that has to be red okay and to achieve that the first thing we have to do is we have to set up a seam okay and we can do that best by just going into edit mode by alt clicking on one of those edge loops and then you can see it actually create an edge loop from top to bottom splitting the whole thing in two now we're going with control that's the wrong button ctrl e mark c like this then we're going to split the view we're going to open the uv image editor we are going we're creating a new image no image let's make sure we have alpha unchecked because already it's going to be a transparent image let's go with 248 actually by 248 124 would be enough as well but yeah that's just a little bit better and let's call it um colored colored underline glass now i'm never really sure if it's color colored or colored because there is like an american than the british version i'm just going with colored which it's basically the same thing right okay so now we have a new image here now let's select everything and you can see it's already automatically unwrapped in a very strange way let's just hit u and unwrap and you can see this thing going on and actually if we just select this edge over here and if we control plus and you can see where it is you can see that's the lower end and this is the upper end okay and somewhere around here we want it to be red in the end okay because that represents this part in here but we will achieve the red effect in the texture a note texture node editor so here we're just going to make it white so we have an um a factor factor texture so to say afterwards let's just select everything let's with r rotate it so it actually fits better we can even scale it up a little bit the better you can use the space uh well the better because um a texture takes a certain amount of space in your rom while rendering and um it takes the same amount of ram whether it's um whether it is a very colorful texture or not so the more you can use this texture the better okay but yeah we could also go with something like this okay actually let's just do that let's just go with something like this okay like this cool now you can see over here it created a uv map uh in the object data tab uv map and that's what we're going to use now we are going to switch to and this is again a bit advanced we didn't we did not yet talk about that at all in the first septum preparation series but you're going to the um text to the texture paint okay and now you can see what happens over there and now we want to make it so that um we can actually paint okay so the way we do that is quite easy we are going to tap into edit mode we are selecting only those edge loops that we actually want to paint on in this case this one come on and then with control plus i think our wine went up to there let's actually hit one more so we are sure control i and h and now if you go back to texture paint you can see if we go to that thing there you can see on this button there only the things unhidden are actually being displayed okay and now we should be able to paint in in here okay um yeah and you can see a funny optical illusion going on over here it appears as if those lines were actually going like this because of the overlaying net anyway now we can go to texture uh to over here and uncheck all of these okay because they are basically make sure that you cannot paint through faces but because we hit everything we don't need you can just turn those off and then we can essentially start painting but you can see nothing happens and that's because we need to actually change the image choose the image first in our case colored glass you can see it's black and now we can we have to go to edit mode i'm sorry edit mode select everything colored glass and that doesn't work let me give you just a second here alt h select everything colored glass here it works okay now you can see we have the colored glass and we have this thing laying over it now once again we need to select that edge loop there come on like this here we go ctrl i h everything else is hidden so like that let's go back to texture paint and now we should be able to paint into that and you can see this way just let's just go with the strength to 1 and the radius to something like 80. and now you can see if we paint over here it automatically paints in the corresponding um space over here in the texture and uh yeah and if later on we use this those coordinates to map that texture onto this um glass then we actually have it in the right spot and now one other thing you have to do actually we have to um go back to object mode we have to go to the second layer we have to choose the wine m move it also to the first layer let's go back to the first layer let's go once again back to texture paint okay that's wrong object mode let's select the glass again texture paint and now unfortunately we cannot see the wine but now if we go back to object now we should be able to if we go to textured you can now see uh this white part there and that is from what we already um painted in okay let's go to black over here let's just paint that back a little bit and let's just make the um the uh the curve okay this is this thing defines the curve how the falloff of our brush is right now it is quite soft we want it to be more like a little bit sharper okay so let's go with that for a second oh that's even worse let's go with this one okay that's way too sharp okay you know what i'm kind of making a fool out of myself here um let's just paint everything completely white with a very sharp edge and now let's go in with um a black a black a black brush let's go with a softer um with a softer brush a little bit like this so we have a slight fall off that's not enough like this is not too bad and now let's just paint in up to exactly just above the wine okay like this that shouldn't be too bad okay now the reason why we have this stuff over here okay which looks completely wrong is because um we mapped this according to that this texture according to that uv map to over here but then um this um text is actually being repeated over the whole material and therefore giving us this those weird and wrong um texturing things okay but we don't have to worry about that the important thing is that if we hide the wine you can see the part where the wine was is now actually white okay it appears to have different colors but that's just because the lighting isn't always the same from the lamps okay and even in opengl mode in texturing mode you can see the lamps actually affect your scene okay cool now we have this image and now we have to create a texture that actually um that's actually put together according to um to this uh to this texture to this image so the way we do that is the following we are going to node editor and we're going to to texture and you're going to new actually let me just see here we're going to new texture and now we create a new texture now we are going to use nodes and you can see checker which is kind of the input and the output now recently for me blender crashed when i tried to delete the checker let's just save the scene let's just delete the checker over here and it seems to work fine this time and now let's just go to input a texture or actually in the texture i'm sorry input and image okay open and that's this one this is the image which looks like this cool now we want to make sure that according to this according to this texture we mix together two colors okay and we do that by using by using two unicolor textures okay and that is a bit difficult to create now the way i found works quite well is just to create two textures set them both to blend okay then let's go to the to the ramp on both of them and then let's just delete this second thing with delete and here with delete as well now you have two completely white textures and now for theater003 we're going to change the color and we're going to change it to something like let me just see something like there something really really red like this like this okay that looks quite all right now we have those two textures and now back in the texture notes let's just select the previous texture again we're going to import two textures actually shift they duplicate that one is zero zero three and one is zero zero four actually the other way around now we are going to use um a mix node shift a input color mix like this and we're going to use that as the factor and that and this is the white part okay now you can see what happens over here and now the important part is that we actually now using this texture and we're going to use a uv uv map and use the uv map to map it onto the glass and we're going to use projection flat that's okay and actually one thing i don't like is that i cannot change how it is being mapped um i'm okay so we have one problem here let me just explain that for a second right now if i um you can see this this is what it looks like with the uv mapped um texture the problem is that the image we we mapped onto here is smaller than the actual uv map if you look at what it's like in the uv map editor a uv image editor go to edit mode it should actually show that you can see that goes over this therefore we can see this white part also on other parts of the glass where we don't want it okay and that is a problem now apparently we cannot really adjust that over here because there should be a separate tab called even image mapping and since we cannot do that we need to change one thing we need to go to the node editor and we need to change this to be a texture okay so let's just duplicate that again okay and now over here we need to create a new texture imager movie we need to load in this image over here we need to set it to uv okay and we need it to i think just clip like this should be okay perfect you can see now it doesn't repeat because if we change that to repeat and you can see we've got it several times we don't want that we don't want it to be clip perfect now um next thing we have to do we have to go to uv map there and now in the node editor we have to delete that and we have to use shift you have to use this new texture as our factor value and now you can see it should work theoretically now what we're going to do we are going to make sure that all those are disabled because we don't want them to influence the color of a glass only this final one now we're going back to solid view for now and now we're just going to render this like this and i just go i'm just going to pause the recording okay so um it finally finished after four minutes and now you can see what happens now we actually have this red um coloring of the glass over here and you can also see this line down there now this line is a bit too thick in my opinion and in order to change we're not going to adjust the the texture which would be a pain we're just going to um unhide the wine going to textured mode we're going to edit mode there we're going to grab this most outer region in in edge select mode this one as well and let me just see that one as well no not that one ctrl said this one crap where is it oh here it is actually this one okay back out of um wireframe let's just pull it up a little bit and we want to go to texture that's what we said textured like this should be fine it doesn't matter if it's not completely even i mean after all wine is not completely even on the surface of the of the glass i like that that's actually perfect i guess cool now um we are pretty much done with those materials as you can see it looks not bad um right now it still looks a bit weird and not quite the way one and also one problem i noticed now that i've actually um used transparent shadows you can see you don't really notice them anymore and that gives an appearance as if this glass is floating in the air so maybe we have to adjust that later on in a way i'll try to figure something out and if i'm just going to um increase the alpha value on the glass and if that doesn't work either we have to use a second glass without transparency to actually create the shadow and so on there are lots of ways to achieve the same effect one thing's for sure we cannot use caustics which would be very nice but that unfortunately doesn't work so yeah that's it for this tutorial i'm sorry about it being such a messy tutorial it was a bit difficult to create this one because sometimes i found myself i found myself being unsure about certain things as well and also because i changed certain things from the original script so to say but anyway i hope you learned something i hope you enjoyed it if you have any kind of questions or comments or suggestions or whatever post them in the comments below the videos thank you for watching and

too often when the airport's this small first impressions of the airport here in bozeman is it reminds me a lot of the alaska one if you look up here they got ducks in the overhead there was a bison at the top of the escalator lots of wood structure in the overhead and there's a that's pretty cool but we are here to see brandon and we'll check these things out later but brandon's probably outside

9AD-KEyio8Q | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9AD-KEyio8Q | Rich Piana Motivation | [Music] question are you truly doing whatever it takes to reach your goals now I'm gonna talk about bodybuilding but this goes for anything in life are you truly doing whatever it takes now whatever it takes obviously everyone has a different version of what that entails now as far as bodybuilding goes whatever it takes I would say are you eating eight to ten meals a day are you the answer probably to 90% of the people out there is no I'm not eating that much okay are you training twice a day are you working out three to four hours a day 90% of the people out there are gonna say no I'm not working out that much are you doing cardio no I don't have time to do cardio 90% of the people will say now whatever it takes when you look and you see the guys on the Olympia stage it's very easy to say oh they're taking steroids they're taking more drugs than me that's why they're up on melee no [ __ ] they're working harder give people credit where credit is due they are working harder than you they have been doing it longer than you they are willing to do whatever it takes now yes they take steroids of course they do but give credit where credit is due these guys are training like maniacs they're eating like maniacs they're on the step mill an hour a day some of them two hours a day have you ever written the step bail get on that [ __ ] and write it for an hour straight and you'll see what I'm talking about it kicks your [ __ ] ass eating eight to 10 times a day is hard and of course we can only add enough time to eat that much you know I work and this and then well then you're not doing whatever it takes and you know it's just if you if you have a goal in mind and you want to achieve that goal you have to be willing to do whatever it takes and if you're not you're never going to reach that goal you're gonna be the guy sitting on the couch saying oh they're taking steroids that's why they're taking more steroids than me the only reason they're better than me is because they're taking more steroids and that makes you feel better you feel okay about yourself now because you're saying to yourself that you work just as hard as them they're only better because they're taking drugs or they're taking more drugs guess what wrong wrong they're working harder amid that [ __ ] admit that you're not willing to do whatever it takes you're not willing to do that you're not gonna work out for three or four hours you're not gonna eat eight to ten meals a day you're not gonna get on the step mill even in the offseason and [ __ ] get on there and [ __ ] go to work for an hour now oh yeah but the step mill you know when you do cardio in the offseason it burns no it doesn't burn muscle that's an excuse so your lazy ass doesn't have to [ __ ] and do the step mill you know what I'm saying man out you're not willing to do what it takes at least be willing to a [ __ ] admit it drives me [ __ ] crazy when people take credit away from people that are truly working their asses off so do whatever it takes reach your goals make your dreams come true and whatever it is in life and you can always do more and the biggest [ __ ] policy of bodybuilding is this whole thing of you could do too much if you workout too much you're overtraining not [ __ ] that for lazy [ __ ] people to say that [ __ ] oh it's I've been trained in an hour better not training you longer because I'm gonna be overtraining and I'm gonna [ __ ] tear my muscles down so you leave the gin oh you [ __ ] workout for three or four hours the more you put into anything the more you get out and this is supposed to be motivational I'm not talking [ __ ] to people out there I'm motivating and I'm waking people up to understand that you need to do whatever it takes you're working on opening a business you need to be working on that [ __ ] 16 hours a day you want to make that [ __ ] successful then you need to be busting your ass doing whatever it takes putting everything into it otherwise your business will fail 80% of businesses fail why because people aren't willing to do whatever it takes if you're willing to do whatever it takes you will be successful when it comes to body building trained three or four hours a day do the step mill a [ __ ] hour in the offseason if you're eating [ __ ] eight or nine thousand calories you're not gonna burn any muscle you're turning your body into a [ __ ] machine your body is a [ __ ] machine you're digesting food faster your body is [ __ ] growing faster that's what it is doing whatever it takes so if you're don't fool yourself and think eating 3,000 calories a day five meals a day working out an hour a day means that you're a hardcore bodybuilder you're doing whatever it takes to achieve your goals when you get that [ __ ] fifth place trophy or you don't make top five [ __ ] face reality and realize you're not working hard enough to [ __ ] get that first-place trophy a real quick story the last national show I competed in I was talking to the winner backstage and Chris Osito was doing his [ __ ] diet and his training program okay and he said rich I do the step mill an hour a day I do five units of insulin before I get on the step mill on an empty stomach and I do it for an hour okay I do that twice a day you know what I said to him I said you know what this was that this was this was before prejudging I said you know what I said you deserve to win this show whether you win or lose you deserve to win it because what you put into this [ __ ] show is unbelievable because I wasn't doing [ __ ] two hours of the [ __ ] step of the day and I wasn't [ __ ] taking insulin before I did the step though that's [ __ ] suicide [ __ ] die you're dropping your blood sugar and doing [ __ ] cardio what the [ __ ] I was not willing to do whatever it takes when it gets to that degree in this sport so I looked at him and I said you know what you deserve to [ __ ] win that's when I made my exit the [ __ ] out of body bullying because I realized I'm not willing to do this [ __ ] it's [ __ ] I'm sorry but that's too much so I'm gonna go into something like [ __ ] opening the business [ __ ] buy-in for things that I can put everything into it you know what I'm [ __ ] damn happy I made that decision because I'm making lots of money and I'm successful and I'm [ __ ] happy anyway I hope this helps [Music] | Inspiration Nation | UCSrkPWye-eVvSAji_rK1I0A | 2017-09-02 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse

es01T1wcqPc | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=es01T1wcqPc | From History to Fiction (Books! Books! Books!) | [Music] aloha and welcome to books books books where we discuss reading writing and everything in between and beyond i'm your host dr rita forsythe coming to you from maui on the think tech live streaming network series broadcasting from our studio at the core of downtown honolulu the title of today's episode is from history to fiction joining me today is jill engeldau author of non-fiction books and other publications about hawaii she's launching a new career and a new endeavor writing fiction based on maui welcome jill hi hi rita it's nice to be here so happy to have you yeah jill you were born in england and grew up in texas and guam and then you moved uh with your family to hawaii in 1959 your dad was a newspaperman who covered events like the volcano eruptions and a major tsunami on the big island could you tell us how your move to hawaii transformed your life oh it transformed it amazingly um i had been living we had lived in a suburb in el paso texas is in the desert and it was a very flat new suburb not that interesting a place we used to take hikes in the desert that was our big adventure and to move to a place like hilo which is just uh you know green jungle i always remember um going in the ocean uh in keaukaha where there's lots of um lava rocks and reefs and look opening my eyes under the water and being absolutely amazed anyway i also made friends with a lot of hawaiian kids in kaukaha and was able to spend a lot of time with them and fell in love with hawaiian music bought myself a little hawaiian dictionary and tried to translate songs from the king song books and just it just really made a difference in my life i had a really wonderful time because i've been really kind of a bookworm living in a boring desert and then i went to this wonderful place and then of course we had things like record-breaking um eruption kilauea iki and the tsunami which was tragic but incredibly exciting the whole thing was just amazing it was great so i imagine those things inspired you to begin to write and uh tell me about uh what inspired you specifically to begin writing about maui well um i always like to write and i'm actually a third generation newspaper person my grandfather had newspapers in little towns in east texas and then my dad was newspaperman so it kind of came with the genes maybe i don't know or just the way i was raised and so i always enjoyed writing and um when i got i got to maui in 1968 i was living out in the country i was raising chickens and vegetables and i was trying to make money making like crochet bathing suits and homemade bread stuff like that and it dawned on me i know how to make things other people don't know how to make i know how to make a story because i just had learned it as a child my father always sort of coached me you know so um and i there were so many stories to be told on maui it was just amazing i could just as my my news person's eye constantly looked around seeing stories everywhere and i uh first wrote something and approached a little weekly on maui called the maui sun and lo and behold they bought this story that i wrote and then they called me and said do you want to write another one and so pretty soon i was working for them part-time then eventually um in 1980 i went to work for the maui news which of course was the newspaper record on maui and was in its golden bays then before the internet when newspapers were still a really big deal and it was there that um well of course i i covered all kinds of things as a reporter i went all over the island i got to know all kinds of people and then i met inez ashdown and started writing history have you ever heard of her no tell me more about her yeah she she was born in 1900 on the mainland her father was a rancher and he won the world championship roping contest and this right before eku purdy and them the other hawaii cowboys went and they beat his record but he came to hawaii as his big celebrity cowboy and got a job at ulapalapu ranch and she grew up there and in various other places on maui and by the time i met her she was 80 because she was a century and it was about 1980 and uh she asked me to help her write her memoirs you can imagine that was um amazing what i learned yes just just from hearing her stories and trying to help her with her memory which never will be published unfortunately yeah i learned i learned to just have a sense of maui history that i don't think you can get any other way than by listening to somebody tell their stories best way right yeah well now the first book of yours that i read was the island decides yeah i believe in fact that maui does decide whether a person is right for island living uh in my novel under the monkey pantry i wrote about that how the island decides and i think i think that was the first conversation you and i even had uh that connected my work to your work yeah yeah it's uh it's something that people used to say a lot when i first came to the island and um i don't know if it's as true now as it used to be then because there are so many people coming and money means so much now i mean if you don't have a lot of money you you can't just like rent an old house for 75 bucks a month anymore and people who have money sort of want to have things their way and the way um things work best on maui is if you don't try to change the island you let the island change you yeah so when people struggle with that and they can't get what they're used to living on the mainland or whatever a lot of times even money doesn't keep them there i have a lot of traffic stories that really uh drilled at home lately so here's a question from our viewer where did you find information about hawaii when you researched your books well let's this goes back well first of all i had that like i said i had a sense of the history from inez and also i had a sense of the history from the people i met because when i got there it was sort of a turning over time a change time where maui was just starting to switch to tourism-based kahului had just been populated so i've heard a lot of stories but then when i left the maui news i left them on my news in 1998 because i wanted to go write things i want to write long things not little short news stories my first freelance job was with the maui news they hired me uh to write a history of maui in the 21st or the 20th century and because the maui news was founded in the year 1900 and we were coming right up on the year 2000 and it was going to be 100 years old so this through the pages of the maui news you could see the history of maui in the 20th century so i spent hours and hours and hours at probably my main source of information which is the maui news unfortunately it's just not accessible anymore for reasons having to do with dead microphone and dead microphone machines hours and hours and hours reading through stories now i knews and fortunately i printed a lot of them because i used them to create this thing that ran in the maui news for almost a full year every couple weeks um and i kept them because i'm glad because it would have been lost forever so i'm glad you did it yeah yeah i i and i'm i'm hoping that eventually the company that owns the paper will get the entire people paper digitized it is digitized you can get it on newspapers.com up to 1923 i think and then after that it's kind of spotty i just found some stuff from the war years online oh my gosh here's the pages of those newspapers it was amazing newspapers are a great source of information if you want to know and then you know there's books interviews there's websites so well um i here's another question um your award-winning book haleakala a history of the maui mountain uh contains vintage photos and contemporary pictures so some viewers want to know how how you got all of those is it is that again a new newspaper source or what's your secret on their photos well photos unfortunately back in the day the maui news did not value its it's not the nine news but certain people who were in charge didn't value things like uh having a clipping file what they call a morgue in the newspaper business or keeping old photos and so it's again very very iffy where you can get photos but i have learned um we talked about uh when we were speaking earlier we talked about um uh exploring historic upcountry and here's this is the book that has become this one can you see that and it started out exploring historic wailuku lahaina and upcountry and i did the upcountry one that's when i began to learn where do you find old pictures so the museums the um bailey house holly holy um ambi museum lahaina restoration foundation those all have photo collections um then of course on the up country one i got a lot of private photos also well i get and that kind of leads to my next question because i bet the sugar cane museum which we're going to talk about next uh has some interesting photos and your book sugar cane days remembering maui's hawaiian commercial and sugar company will be of interest to anybody who lived in hawaii over the past i don't know maybe 100 years or more yeah can you talk a little bit about this book there before that they wouldn't be here to appreciate it hopefully not well actually that one i i mean there was a woman who lived on maui until a few years ago named roz lightfoot and she first ran bail the bailey house museum and then she moved over to the um b sugar museum and i was i i needed um some pictures a picture i need a specific picture and i couldn't find this image that i knew had to be out there somewhere and i called her and said do you have it and she said yeah we do why don't you come on down so i went to the museum and she found me the picture and then she started showing me on her computer a bunch of other pictures that had been scanned and they are black and white photos that were taken for mostly probably other reasons too but mostly for a little in-house newspaper that the museum or the plantation ran between 1948 1968 they are gorgeous that was like before sugar i mean before a color film and the photographers were masters of the art and here were hundreds of fabulous photos well you remember when the sugar came when hcns closed right this was six months before it closed oh wow and i saw these pictures and i went oh my god she says yeah i've been thinking you should do some books with these and i looked at them and knowing the economics of books i knew that no i couldn't do more than one but i thought i've got to do one about the great you know this really were the golden days of plantation life um the golden age yes yes yeah well and uh two of your books maui 101 and island life 101 um they have they're just full of suggestions for people that are moving here people that are just visiting uh can you share your reasons and i'm sure they're good for writing these books yes and i we didn't we didn't get graphics for everything so here's island life 101 right below your chin there you go um so we were talking about how the island decides and how so many people are coming now and it's kind of you know the island has lost its localness in so many ways overwhelmed by multitudes of newcomers and um i was working after i left the maui news i worked at hawaii community foundation we talked a lot about social capital which is the bonds within a community everything from public meetings to knowing your neighbors and going on a picnic together to playing bridge on a saturday night all kinds of informal connections that are what make a healthy community and the fact that having so many people come in that didn't know the history didn't know the culture didn't know the customs was putting a strain on it so i got the idea to write this first i wrote maui 101 and then um i sold that out and then i thought well there's so many more people in the state i'll write it for the whole state so i expanded it and made that island life 101. you know it would be great if they took tidbits from your book and shared them with people on planes coming here because it would be it'd be lovely if if people understood a little bit more before they landed so uh my husband and i were in lahaina today and we were having lunch at the paella fish market and we thought about you we talked about you and and your work and i was thinking that many people that visit lahaina really don't know a lot about its rich history your book the story of lahaina made me see the town in a whole new light oh good well you know i got to tell you that that inez ashdown who i mentioned previously she wrote the original the story of lahaina booklet she helped with the renovation of the baldwin home right there on friday yeah and um and then she wrote this book but and it but it was really really outdated and so i wrote a new one and to to honor her i kept the name but you know we were talking about the uh lalalier fish pond where you live i live right on the banks of that i'm trying to figure out how i can make this work right against your face there it is it works and i really wanted you to see this i don't know if well you have seen it because you've seen the book right this is this um picture that is on the cover this book is a watercolor by what is his name gilman anyway he visited maui in like 1852 and he did this wonderful picture and it shows that wetland that was mokula or mokuhiniya around the island of mokula which is the and the myth that that has a a hawaiian mermaid slash lizard creature that's the same mo that lives in our pond here when i wrote my novel under the monkey pantry so and i think all that same mo lives in hana too right i don't i'm not sure but there's it's a pretty strong story and and there's even stories that in lahaina i don't know about you know in uh keh but in lahaina there are even stories about people seeing something in the water in historic times where it was you know people could write and record it so i don't know so i got chicken skins just thinking about it yeah in your book there's that all these strange things that keep happening and you get the feeling there's somebody here that's like whoa it's watching you [Laughter] so um i was think also thinking about because i was in up country a couple days ago and it's a bit of a drive uh there for for me and i bet you put a lot of miles on your car when you were researching your book exploring historic upcountry i did indeed on um because we uh we i would go up country well for example we're talking about where to get where did i find pictures and stuff for example churches of country often have pictures and i would go there and visit a church and look at their pictures and then beg them please could i borrow these pictures i'll bring them back i promise and or a family or who else i get them from ranches just all kinds of places up country i mean i would drive up to oolapala cool and get a half a dozen pictures take them down to wailuku and have them professionally scanned and then drive them back on in those days oh my gosh uh so i'm fascinated by your book the spirit lives on and that's the history of the old maui high school well in my research they say the beautiful ruins are haunted what do you say um i say if they're haunted they're haunted with good times because they have diamonds i brought i got that one too let's see if people can see this is that a yeah it is it's still and i just saw a picture somebody posted on uh facebook that um showed what it looked like before they cleaned it up because oh yeah it was so overgrown and that there'd been a fire and everything but the the structure the basic bones of that building are still there and someday they'll find a way to do something with it but it was designed by um c.w dickey who was a very famous hawaii architect and it was just this beautiful oasis for plantation kids to come to and learn and study play and they did the most amazing things they took classes in things like french and latin i've heard a story i don't know where i heard this story but when when the nisei soldiers of world war ii went to italy they were able to get around fairly well because they had learned latin at maui high and no kidding they could kind of work their way through italian just basic stuff because yeah uh so what accolades uh have you received for your writing some of your awards um you know i i don't there's somewhere i have a list of them i when i was at the maui news i covered health and human services all the non-profits and you know the health care associations and stuff i got a lot of rewards then um partly because those are people that like to say thank you a lot you know social work people um i i did receive an ippy for uh which is the independent publishers award for the haleakala book and then the sugarcane days won an award from the historic hawaii foundation well congratulations on that and i know you collaborated with other authors in writing some of your books yes a lot um going all the way back to the 1980s uh i don't know if you've heard of this book magic maui the best of the island oh no no this was this my friend mj harden had been a travel writer and i first met her when she came to maui because she had a new boyfriend on maui and and um she said that in all her traveling there was always a certain kind of travel guide that she looked for when she went to a new place and there was no such book about maui and since i had local knowledge and she knew what to write in a travel book we got together and really i helped her it was her book and i helped her with this book and this was early in self-publishing days mj went to san francisco and literally ran around town learning how to publish books and we published it and it was very successful but by the time we got done other guidebooks had turned up so it didn't it didn't we couldn't retire on our earnings unfortunately now the spirit lives on the one about maui high that was a collaboration because barbara long who was the president of that organist uh the friends of o'malley high which commissioned this book um she helped a lot she she did a lot of writing and research she she had a lot of ideas um oh here's another one this is one i collaborated on oh beautiful i never saw that one book of lavender it's and unfortunately it's not a print it's about um the aliikula lavender farm oh that's such a beautiful place yeah it was written with ali the founder and um with lonnie uh weiger who was the marketing director at the time so we put that one together and then i've helped people with memoirs and stuff along the way so excellent well um my final question a little off the topic of your books is what are you reading what's on your bedside table well you know i said i don't read non-fiction very much but because i'm up to my ears in research for rose's war which is about world war ii on maui and believe me there's a lot to say about that and rose and her um farm manager and firm manager's wife have to deal with a lot of stuff including the fact that he gets interned and so in order to understand what that would have been like um he's he's a nisei japanese-american i've read a lot of books and a couple that i would highly recommend anybody's all interested in learning what it was like to be a japanese american during world war ii one is called facing the mountain and it's by daniel james brown it's amazing and it's got people from maui in it so it's that makes it even more interesting to me and it's it tells about internment and about the nisei soldiers going off to work and what they had to go through oh my gosh and then the other one is called remembering our grandfather's exile and it's by a woman named gail y okawa and this is about her tracing the journey of her grandfather who was a christian minister japanese of course who was interned and sent to the mainland and she follows in great detail his journey and that of other of the men who were sent off to the mainland the community leaders who were arrested at the time both of those books are just amazing pieces of work they're heartbreaking they're inspiring and i just really recommend both of them i think i'll i think i'll order them on amazon and by the way where can we find your books uh they're on amazon or you can look on my website which is just jillingeldow.com and the novels will be available in a lot of other places but this is a slow process of getting the proofreading done and getting them distributed and everything but at this moment they're both available as ebooks on amazon and soon other forms will be available excellent well that's all the time we have today i'm going to repeat my goodbye speech i want to thank jill for being my special guest our broadcast engineer our floor manager and jay fidel our executive producer a special mahalo to our sponsors and thank you for joining us books books books we'll be back in two weeks with my friend and host elaine gallant i'll see you next month until then read write and create your world [Music]

good man trading the Mets for bucks Rory gets his bucks I'm automatically I'm not waiting for Rory to confirm because that's his team so I'm assuming he's ok with that I honestly don't know if this is

maria alberto au Henny Oh Ferdinand Oh Tommaso di Siviglia the 14th of March 1822 the 9th of January 1878 was king of Sardinia from 1849 until the 17th of March 1861 at that point he assumed the title of king of Italy and became the first king of a united Italy since the 6th century a title he held until his death in 1878 the Italians gave him the epithet of father of the fatherland Italian Padre della patria the monument Altare della patria or Vittoriano in Rome was built in his honor biography Victor Emmanuel was born as the eldest son of Charles Albert Prince of Karen Jana and Maria Theresa of Austria his father succeeded a distant cousin as king of Sardinia Piedmont in 1831 he lived for some years of his youth in Florence and showed an early interest in politics the military and sports in 1842 he married his cousin Adelaide of Austria he was styled as the Duke of Savoy prior to becoming king of Sardinia Piedmont he took part in the first Italian war of independence 1848 to 1849 under his father King Charles Albert fighting in the front line at the battles of the strengh go santa lucia Boyko and Cousteau's ax he became king of Sardinia Piedmont in 18-49 when his father advocated the throne after a humiliating military defeat by the Austrians at the Battle of Navarra Victor Emmanuel was immediately able to obtain a rather favorable armistice at vineya by the Austrian Imperial Army commander Radetzky the treaty however was not ratified by the Piedmontese lower parliamentary house the Chamber of Deputies and Victor Emmanuel retaliated by firing his prime minister Claudio Gavriel a de Launay replacing him with Massimo does Aglio after new elections the peace with Austria was accepted by the new Chamber of Deputies in 18-49 Victor Emmanuel also fiercely suppressed a revolt in genoa defining the rebels as a vile and infected race of canals in 1852 he appointed count Camillo benzo of Cavour count Cavour as Prime Minister of piedmont-sardinia this turned out to be a wise choice since Cavour was a political mastermind and a major player in the Italian unification in his own right Victor Emmanuel the second soon became the symbol of the resurgent Oh the Italian unification movement of the 1850s and early 60s he was especially popular in the kingdom of Sardinia Piedmont because of his respect for the new constitution and his liberal reforms Cree mean war following Victor Emmanuel's advice Cavour joined Britain and France in the Crimean War against Russia Cavour was reluctant to go to war due to the power of Russia at the time and the expense of doing so Victor Emmanuel however was convinced of the rewards to be gained from the alliance created with Britain and more importantly France after successfully seeking British support and ingratiating himself with France and Napoleon the third at the Congress of Paris in 1856 at the end of the war count Cavour arranged a secret meeting with the French Emperor in 1858 they met at Columbia's les Bains in Lorraine where they agreed that if the French were to help Piedmont combat Austria which still occupied the kingdom of Lombardi Venetia in northern Italy France would be awarded nice in Savoy Wars of Italian unification the Italo French campaign against Austria in 1859 started successfully however sickened by the casualties of the war and worried about the mobilisation of Prussian troops Napoleon the third secretly made a treaty with Franz Joseph of Austria at Villafranca whereby Piedmont would only gain Lombardi France did not as a result receive the promised nice in Savoy but Austria did keep Venetia a major setback for the Piedmontese in no small part because the treaty had been prepared without their knowledge after several quarrels about the outcome of the war Cavour resigned and the king had to find other advisors France indeed only gained nice and Savoy after the Treaty of Turin was signed in March 1862 cavour had been reinstalled as prime minister and a deal with the French was struck for plebiscites to take place in the central Italian duchies later that same year victor emmanuel ii sent his forces to fight the papal army at Castel food our dough and drove the Pope into Vatican City his success at these goals led him to be excommunicated from the Catholic Church then giuseppe garibaldi conquered Sicily and Naples and Sardinia Piedmont grew even larger on the 17th of March 1861 the kingdom of Italy was officially established and victor emmanuel ii became its king Victor Emmanuel supported giuseppe garibaldi x' expedition of the thousand 1860 to 1861 which resulted in the rapid fall of the kingdom of the two sicilies in southern italy however the king halted Garibaldi when he appeared ready to attack Rome still under the papal States as it was under French protection in 1860 through local plumber sites Tuscany Madonna Parma and Romagna decided to side with Sardinia Piedmont Victor Emmanuel then marched victoriously in the mark' and Umbria after the victorious battle of Castile for dardo 1860 over the papal forces the king subsequently met with Garibaldi at keno receiving from him the control of southern Italy another series of plebiscites in the occupied lands resulted in the proclamation of Victor Emmanuel as the first king of Italy by the new parliament of unified Italy on the 17th of March 1861 he did not remember himself after assuming the new royal title however turn became the capital of the new state only Rome Veneto and Trentino remained to be conquered completion of the unification in 1866 Victor Emmanuel allied himself with Prussia in the third Italian war of independence although not victorious in the Italian theater he managed anyway to receive Veneto after the Austrian defeat in Germany in 1870 after two failed attempts by Garibaldi he also took advantage of the Prussian victory over France in the franco-prussian war to capture Rome after the French withdrew he entered Rome on the 20th of September 1870 and set up the new capital there on the 2nd of July 1871 after a temporary move to Florence in 1864 the new royal residence was the key renal palace the rest of Victor Emmanuel ii s reign was much quieter after the kingdom of italy was established he decided to continue on as king victor emmanuel ii instead of victor emmanuel the first of italy this was a terrible move as far as public relations went as it was not indicative of the fresh start that the Italian people wanted and suggested that Sardinia Piedmont had taken over the Italian peninsula rather than unifying it despite this mishap the remainder of victor emmanuel ii s reign was consumed by wrapping up loose ends and dealing with economic and cultural issues his role in day-to-day governing gradually dwindled as it became increasingly apparent that a king could no longer keep a government in office against the will of parliament as a result while the wording of the statute o Albert II no stipulating that ministers were solely responsible to the crown remained unchanged in practice they were now responsible to Parliament Victor Emmanuel died in Rome in 1878

wpfh0CjciLY | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wpfh0CjciLY | 100 Ways To Motivate Yourself by Steve Chandler Full Audio Book | 100 ways to motivate yourself change your life forever written by Steve Chandler read by the author I hope what I'm about to say doesn't offend you but you have no personality that each of us has a fixed personality is a complete myth we make ourselves up as we go along Charlie Chaplin once entered a Charlie Chaplin look-alike contest in Monte Carlo and the judges awarded in third place the choices we make for our thinking either motivate us or they don't and while clear visualization of a goal is a good first step to success in life self motivation demands more to truly motivate yourself and the life you want to live actions required as psychologist and author dr. Nathaniel Branden has written a goal without an action plan as a daydream self creation happens once self motivation is mastered one flows directly from the other motion creates the self in my experience as a teacher consultant and writer I've accumulated a hundred ways of thinking that lead directly to self motivation I now present these thoughts to you number one create a vision Arnold Schwarzenegger was not well known in 1976 when he and I had lunched together at the Doubletree Inn in Tucson Arizona he was in town publicizing the movie stay hungry it was a box-office disappointment that he just made I was a sports columnist for the Tucson Citizen and my assignment was to spend a full day one-on-one with Arnold and write a feature story about him so at one point I casually asked him now that you've retired from bodybuilding what are you going to do next and with a voice as calm as if he were telling me about some mundane travel plans he said I'm going to be the number one box-office star in all of Hollywood I tried not to show my shock an amusement at his plan after all his first attempted movies didn't honest munch and his Austrian accent and the awkward monstrous build really didn't suggest instant acceptance by movie audiences so I asked him just how he planned to become Hollywood's top star it's the same process I used in bodybuilding he explained what you do is create a vision of who you want to be and then live into that picture as if it were already true now notice that Arnold said create a vision he didn't say that you wait until you receive a vision you create one in other words you can make it up number two tell a true lie recently my 12 year old daughter participated in a poetry reading in which all her classmates had to write a so-called live poem about how great they were they were supposed to make up untruths about themselves that made them sound unbelievably wonderful I realized that the children were doing what Arnold did to clarify the picture of his future by lying to themselves they were creating a vision of who they wanted to be so if it's hard for you to imagine the potential in yourself you might want to start by beginning to express it as a fantasy like the children did who wrote the poems think of some stories about who you'd like to be without a picture of your highest self you can't live into that self number-3 leave your comfort zone our society encourages us to seek comfort and yet only challenge will test our skills and make us better only challenge and the self motivation to engage the challenge will really transform us in every challenge we face creates a more skillful self so it's up to you to constantly look for challenges to motivate yourself and it's up to you to notice when you're buried alive in a comfort zone then break free and fly away number 4 find your key I stabbed the feeling that everyone else in life had been issued struction book on how to make life work and I for some reason wasn't there when they passed the books up still struggling in my mid-30s with a pessimistic outlook no sense of purpose I voiced my frustration wants to a friend of mine dr. Michael Killebrew he recommended a book to me the name of the book was the master key to riches by Napoleon Hill what the book actually did was a lot more than increased my earning capacity although by practicing the principles in the book my earnings did double and less than here Gil's advice ultimately sparked a fire in me that changed my entire attitude toward life without fully understanding it I was engaging in the process of completely rebuilding my own thinking I was thought by thought replacing the old cynical and passive orientation to life with a new optimistic and energetic attitude so what was this master key to riches Napoleon Hill tells us in his book quote the great master key to riches is nothing more or less than the self-discipline necessary to help you take full and complete possession of your own mind remember it is profoundly significant that the only thing over which you have complete control is your own mental attitude maybe the hill book won't be your own key but I promise you that you'll find your own instruction book if you keep looking you'll find it when you're ready to seek it's out there waiting for you number five plan your work many of us think we're too depressed right now to start on a new course of self creation or were too upset but Napoleon Hill says that's the perfect time to learn life's most important rule there is one unbeatable rule for the mastery of sorrows and disappointments he says and that's the transmutation of those emotional frustrations through definitely planned work it's a rule which has no evil once we get the picture of whom we want to be definitely planned work is the path to self motivation definitely planned work contains the energy of purpose one hour of planning saves three hours of execution most of us don't take the time to plan for an hour we don't understand that it will be the most productive hour we spend instead we wander into the workplace and react to crises and ironically most crises are a result of a failure to plan well it is impossible to work passionately with a sense of purpose and feel depressed at the same time successfully planned work will motivate you to do more and more than you ever thought possible number six move your goal posts most people are surprised to learn that the reason they're not getting what they want in life is because their major goals are too small and too vague and therefore have no power your major goal will not be reached if it fails to excite your imagination what really increases motivation is the setting of a large and specific power goal a power goal is a dream that drives you people who have created power goals are living on purpose they know what they're up to in life how can you tell if you've got a big enough and real enough power goal simply observe the effect your goal has on you it's not what a goal is that matters it's what a goal does number seven dribble with your other hand if you've ever coached kids who play basketball you know that most of them have a tendency to dribble with only one hand the one attached to their dominant arm when you notice a child doing this you might call them aside and say hey Billy your dribbling was one hand the defender can easily defend you your options are cut off you need to dribble with the other hand so that can't happen at which point Billy says I can Dohee it's not that you can't it's that you haven't then you explained to Billy that his other hand can dribbled just as well if he logs enough bounces it's just the simple formation of the habit after enough practice dribbling with his other hand Billy begins to learn you're right and the same principle is true for reprogramming your own habits of thinking thinking is just like bouncing the ball on the one hand you can think pessimistically and build that side of you up it's just a matter of repeating the bounces on the other hand you can think optimistically one thought at a time and build that side up the overall pattern won't change after just a few positive bounces of the ball but you do change one thought at a time number eight play your character how you act is who you become consider these thoughts from Star Trek's Leonard Nimoy whoa Spock had a big big effect on me I'm so much more Spock like today than when I first played the part in 1965 that you wouldn't recognize me I'm not talking about appearance but thought processes doing that character I learned so much about rational logical thought that it reshaped my life now just like Spock we too can gain energy and inspiration by doing the character we want to be we can become who we act like we are number 9 don't just do something sit there sit quietly absolutely alone for a long time all by yourself completely relaxed don't allow the television or music to distract you be with yourself observe insights starting to appear observe your relationship with yourself starting to get better sitting in silence allows your true dream and life to take shape and clarity in modern interactive civilized life today you're either living your dream or someone else's and unless you give your dream the time and space it needs to express itself you'll spend the better part of your life living the dreams of other people number 10 use the right chemicals not real drugs of course instead get into those energizing chemicals already in your system they get activated when you laugh or sing or dance or run or hug someone when you're having fun your body chemistry changes and you get new surges of motivation and energy don't keep trying to go out searching for something that's fun it's not out there anywhere it's inside yourself if you can't immediately see the fun in something find a way to create it once you've made a job fun you've solved the problem of self motivation number 11 leave high school most of us think we're stuck in high school forever before high school in our earlier and more carefree childhoods we were creative dreamers filled with a boundless sense of energy and wonder but in high school something got turned around we began fearing what others were thinking of us all of a sudden our mission in life became not to be embarrassed we were afraid to look bad and so we made it a point not to take risks most people end up designing their lives based on what other people might be thinking of them but we can leave that habit behind as Emerson asked why should the way I feel depend on the thoughts in someone else's head number 12 lose face you can create itself that doesn't care that much what people think you can motivate yourself by leaving the painful self-consciousness of high school behind the actor Rene Auberjonois said show me a guy who's afraid to look bad and I'll show you a guy you can beat every time number 13 sing without feeling become a performer act like you already feel like you want a feel American philosopher William James put it very clearly we do not sing because we are happy we're happy because we think if you want to be happy find the happiest song you know and sing it it works number 14 kill your television if you're watching too much television and you know it you might find it useful to ask this one question which side of the glass do I want to live on when you're watching television you're watching other people do what they love doing for a living those people are on the best side of the glass because they're having fun and you're passively watching them have fun they're getting money and you're paying Groucho Marx once said he found television very educational every time someone turns it on he said I go in the other room to read a book number 15 read yourself a story Abraham Lincoln used to drive his law partners crazy every morning he'd come into the office and read the daily newspaper aloud to himself why did they do this morning reading aloud he discovered that he remembered twice as much when he read aloud than when he read silently and what he did remember he remembered for a much longer period of time anytime you have an opportunity to read something that's important to you try reading it aloud see if you don't make twice the impression on yourself number 16 get on your deathbed many of us including myself keep pretending that our game has no end we plan to do great things someday when we feel like it confronting our own death doesn't have to wait until we run out of life in fact being able to vividly imagine our last hours on our deathbed creates a paradigm physical sensation the feeling of being born all over again and that's the first step to self motivation number 17 be lazy to begin with Henry Ford used to point out to his colleagues that there wasn't any job that couldn't be handled if they were willing to break it down into small pieces and when you've broken a job down remember to allow yourself some laziness in beginning because it isn't important how fast you're doing it what's important is that you are doing it the irony is the slower you start something the faster you'll be finished when you first think about doing something hard and overwhelming you're most aware of how you don't want to do it at all in other words the mental picture you have of the activity doing it fast and furiously is not a happy picture so you think a ways to avoid doing the job altogether thinking about starting slowly is easy and doing it slowly allows you to actually start doing it therefore it gets finished number eighteen leave your friends politely walk away from so-called friends who don't support your goals when you're in a conversation with a pessimist possibilities seem to have a way of disappearing and a narrow sense of cynicism settles in President Calvin Coolidge once said cynics do not create everyone knows that enthusiasm for life is contagious and being in a conversation with an optimist opens us up to see more and more of life's possibilities number 19 plan your game design your own life's game plan let the game respond to you rather than the other way around be like Bill Walsh the former head coach of the San Francisco 49ers everybody thought he was the kind of eccentric because of how extensively he planned his plays in advance of each game most coaches would wait to see how the game unfolded then respond was ways that seemed appropriate not bill Ross Ross would pace the sidelines with a big sheet of plays that his team was going to run no matter what he wanted the game to respond to him Walsh won a lot of Super Bowls with his so called eccentric proactive approach but all he did was to act on the crucial difference between creating and responding number twenty find your inner Einstein the next time you see a picture of Albert Einstein realize that that's actually you every human has the capacity for genius to experience Einsteins creative level of thinking all you have to do is commit to using your imagination you know this is sometimes a difficult recommendation for grownups to follow grown-ups have become accustomed to using their imaginations for only one thing worrying grown-ups visualize worst-case scenarios all day long all their energy for visualization is channeled into colorful pictures of what could go wrong worry is a misuse of the imagination what people don't comprehend is that the human imagination was designed for better things people who use their imaginations to create often achieve things the Warriors never dream of achieving even if the Warriors have much higher IQs dreaming is the design stage of creating the future imagine yourself living a motivated life number 21 feel good first most people think they'll feel good once they reach some goal they think happiness is out there somewhere the problem was putting off feeling good about yourself until you hit a certain goal is that it might never happen by linking happiness to something you don't have yet you're denying your power to create it for yourself in the moment your happiness is your birthright it shouldn't depend on your achieving something start by claiming it and using it to make your journey fun all the way and not just fun at the end number 20 to run toward your fear the world's best-kept secret is that on the other side of your fear there's something safe and beneficial waiting for you if you work through even a small fear you'll increase the confidence you have in your ability to create your life General George Patton said fear kills more people than death death kills us but once and we usually don't even know it but fear kills us over and over again suddenly at times and brutally at other times the rush we get after running through the waterfall of fear is the most energizing feeling in the world if you're ever in an under motivated mood find something you fear and do it and watch what happens number 23 just be unexpected most people don't see themselves as being creative but we all are one of the reasons we don't see ourselves that way is that we normally associate being creative with being original but creativity has nothing to do with originality and it has everything to do with simply being unexpected so if you're willing to accept that you are creative you can begin to cultivate that side of yourself you can start coming up with all kinds of unexpected solutions to the challenges that life throws at you number 24 create your relationships the italian artist luciano decrescendos said we are each of us angels was only one wing so we can only fly embracing each other we can't create our truest selves without creating relationships in the process relationships are everywhere in relationships most of us think with our emotions not our minds but anytime you take a relationship problem up into the mind you have unlimited opportunities to get creative conversely when you send a relationship problem down the elevator into the heart the gut you risk staying stuck in that problem forever this doesn't mean that you shouldn't feel anything feel everything notice your feelings but don't think with your feelings when there's a relationship problem to be solved travel up the ladder to the most creative view you'll soon realize that you create the relationships you have in your life they don't just happen to you number 25 be where you are most of us don't ever focus we constantly feel a certain amount of psychic chaos because we're always trying to think of too many things at once focus on what you want and it will come into your life focus on being a happy and motivated person and that's who you'll be number 26 opt like a hero we need heroes in our lives they're not a sign of weakness their source of strength Bernard Malamud said without heroes we are all plain people and we don't know how far we can go hero show us what's possible for a human being to accomplish therefore heroes are very useful to anyone interested in self motivation you don't have to have just one hero choose a number of them put their pictures up become an expert in their lives collect books about them let your heroes lies inspire you there only people like we are what distinguishes them from us is the great levels they've reached and self-motivation to just passively adore them is to insult our own potential instead of looking up to our heroes it's much more beneficial to look into them number 27 except your willpower you know a lot of people say I don't have any willpower but if you think you have no willpower you're undermining your own success everyone has well power to be listening to this program you've got to have willpower the first step in developing your willpower is to accept its existence the second step is to know that your willpower like a muscle in your arm is yours to develop you're in charge of making it strong or letting it become weak willpower is not strengthened by random external circumstances willpower is an inside game make a promise to yourself to be clear and truthful about your own willpower it's always there number 28 say no to yourself a lot of people are afraid of the word discipline but at the root of the word discipline is the word disciple when you're self disciplined you simply decided in matters of the will to become your own disciple once you make that decision your life's adventures get more interesting you start to see yourself as a stronger person you gain self-respect psychologists Abraham Heschel said self-respect is the fruit of discipline the sense of dignity grows with the ability to say no to oneself Emerson said that when we say no to a temptation the power of that temptation passes into our willpower and William James recommended that we do at least two things every day that we don't want to do by doing this we stay powerfully aware of our own willpower number 29 make new word connections if you associate the word willpower with negative things such as harsh self-denial and Punishment you'll weaken your resolve to build it now to increase your resolve it's really useful to think of new word connections for example to weightlifters failure is success unless they lift away to a point of failure their muscles aren't growing so they've programmed themselves through repetition to use the word failure in a positive sense language leads to power so be conscious of the creative potential of all the language you use and then guide that language in the direction of more personal power number 30 deprogram yourself if you're a regular consumer of the major news programs you belong to a very persuasive and hypnotic cult you need to be deprogrammed start by altering how you listen to the media program out all the negative cynical and skeptical thoughts that you now allow to flow into your mind unchecked when you hear the news once you've gotten good at factoring out the negative aspects of the media today take it a step further make your own news be your own breaking story don't look to the media to tell you what's happening in your life be what's happening number 31 open the present practice being awake in the present moment make the most of your awareness of this moment don't live in the past unless you like guilt don't live in the future unless you're like fear just stay focused on today watch what happens to your motivation number 30 to serve and Grow Rich you can motivate yourself by increasing the flow of money into your life most people are embarrassed even think this way they don't want to think and grow rich because they think they'll be thought of as greedy or maybe they still believe in the thoroughly discredited Marxist economics superstition to make money you have to take it away from somebody else or else they don't want to come across as being obsessed with money but you know who's really obsessed with money people who think they don't have enough they obsess about money all day long it's in their family discussions it's in their minds at night it becomes a destructive part of their relationships during the day George Bernard Shaw said our first duty in life is not to be poor the road to not being poor always travels through your professional relationships the more you serve those relationships the more productive you'll become and the more money you'll make allow yourself to link financial well-being with an increased capacity for compassion for others if I'm living in poverty how much love and attention can I give my children or to my fellow humans how much help can I be to others if I'm always worried about being in debt number 33 imitate Columbo in your professional life whatever it is always be curious when you meet with someone think of yourself as a bumbling but friendly private detective like Columbo us ask questions by asking questions in your relationships you're already creating the relationship and you're already self-motivated you don't have to wait for the other person to make it happen number 34 give away some power motivate yourself by giving someone else the ideas necessary for self motivation you can have any experience you want in life simply by giving that experience away to someone else John Lennon called it Instant Karma if you want to be motivated shift your inspirations someone else point out their strengths offer encouragement and support watch what it does for you number 35 talk to yourself we've been a little nervous culturally about talking to ourselves we associated with insanity but Plato said that thinking was the sole talking to itself there is no one better to talk to than yourself if you really want to get things worked out no other person has as much information about your problems no one knows your skills and capabilities better Nathaniel Branden suggests that we get our creative thinking going each morning by asking ourselves two questions one what's good in my life and two what is there still to be done because thought always precedes action talking to yourself is a proven way to get motivated number 36 schedule your comebacks progress toward your goals is never going to be a straight line it'll always be a wavy line you'll go up and then come down a little two steps forward and one step back now most people get discouraged when they slide a step back after the two steps forward they think they're failing they think they've lost it but they really haven't they're simply in step with the natural rhythm of progress now once you understand this rhythm you can look ahead on your calendar and block out time to refresh renew recover schedule your comeback while you're on top build in big periods of time to get away even to get away from what you love because coming back it's going to be that much more exciting when you've been renewed number 37 live your true life the psychologist David visco wrote when you say you fear death you're really saying that your fear you've not lived your true life this fear cloaks the world in silent suffering how do you know what your true life is how do you know how to live it first find out what makes you happy and then start doing that now if writing makes you happy and you're not writing for a living you might want to start up a company newsletter when I first realized that speaking and teaching made me happy I started a free weekly workshop I didn't just wait until something was offered to me there's no goal better than this one - no as you lie on your death bed that you lived your true life you did what it was that made you happy number 38 get up on the right side of the bed since I was a child I've always been intrigued with the idea that you could have a great day just by getting up on the right side of the bed today my fascination is not so much for the right side of the bed as it is with the right side of the head or to be more precise the right side of the brain in the 1930s brain surgeons discovered the different functions of the two halves of the brain while working on epileptics in 1950 Roger W Sperry made the greatest breakthroughs in discovering that dreams and energy and creative insight come from the right side of the brain and linear logical short-term and short-sighted thinking came from the left side of the brain the best explanation for how whole brain thinking surpasses left brain thinking or right brain thinking is in a book written by British philosopher : Wilson called Frankenstein's castle Wilson reveals that we have more control over drawing vital energy and creative ideas from the right brain than we ever realized and what stimulates the right brain the most is a high sense of purpose if you had to carry a heavy sack of sand across town your left brain might get upset and tell you while you're doing something boring and tedious however let's say your child were injured let's say your little girl were injured badly and she waved the same as a huge bag of sand you'd carry her the same distance to a hospital with a surprising surge of vital energy that energy would be sent from the right brain and that's what purpose does to the brain self motivation increase when the left brain gets good at telling the right brain what to do number 39 use your magic machine most people wait for an external crisis a threatened bankruptcy or attack on the street or the burning down of their home or an unwanted divorce to finally kick in their whole brain thinking but you know that leads to a life of reaction rather than creation the three best ways to activate whole brain thinking are through goal-setting joyful work and revitalizing play so rather than wait for some external crisis to appear you can create an internal challenge of your own goals and games goals and games motivate you more than anything else in the world number 40 get your stars out Kerry Hill the New York writer has been a friend of mine since the sixth grade and he gives lectures and seminars on creativity his advice to his audiences on the subject of creativity is from JD Salinger and that is make sure you get your stars on and this is another way of saying let the universe that is in you shine freely don't try too hard to force things just get your stars out and let them shine number 41 be a finisher do you want to know where fatigue really comes from it doesn't come from working to her all the research shows that fatigue comes from not finishing your work William James once wrote nothing is so fatiguing as the hanging on of an uncompleted task I was giving a self motivation seminar recently during one of the breaks a man came up kamini said hey you know what my problem is I never seem to finish anything I'm always off onto something before anything's completed he then asked whether I could give him some affirmations that might alter this so I said do you think affirmations are what you need I mean if you had to learn to use a computer could you do it by sitting on your couch and repeating the affirmation I know how to use a computer I'm great at using computers I'm a wizard on a computer he admitted that affirmations would probably have no effect on his ability to use a computer so the best way to change your belief system is to change the truth about you I told them to believe that you're a good finisher you've got to build a personal record of finishing tasks he followed my suggestions and he followed him with great enthusiasm he bought a notebook and at the top of the first page he wrote things I've finished each day he made a point of setting small tasks and finishing them whereas in the past he was inclined to start sweeping his front walk and leave it unfinished when the phone rang now he let the phone ring so he could finish the job and record it in his notebook the more things he wrote down the more confident he became that he really was becoming a finisher consider how much more permanent his belief change was than if he tried to do it with affirmations he could have whispered to himself all night long I am a great finisher but his right brain would have known better we motivate ourselves by finishing things number 42 invent games so whatever it is that you have to do whether it's a major project at work a huge cleaning job at home turning it into a game will always bring you higher levels of energy and motivation number 43 interact there's a huge difference between active relaxation and passive relaxation active relaxation refreshes and restores the mind it keeps it flexible and toned for thinking great thinkers have known the secret for a long time Winston Churchill for example used to paint to relax Albert Einstein played the violin they could relax one part of the brain while stimulating another when they returned to work a day pursuits they were fresher and sharper than ever most of us simply deaden the mind in order to relax we rent mindless videos or read tabloids we drink we smoke we eat until we're foggy and bloated the problem with this form of relaxation is that it dulls our creativity and it makes it hard to come back into consciousness but when we find ways to link thinking to recreation our lives get richer we become players in the game of life and not just spectators number 44 live a whole life today John Wooden was the most successful college basketball coach of all time his UCLA teams won 10 national championships in 12 years Wooden created a major portion of his coaching and living philosophy from one thought a single sentence passed on to him by his father when Wooden was a little boy that thought make each day your masterpiece while other coaches would try to gear their players to some kind of important game in the future Wooden always focused on today his practice sessions at UCLA where every bit as important as any championship game in his philosophy there was no reason not to make today the proudest day of your life today is a microcosm of your entire life it's your whole life in miniature you've got eternity in the palm of your hand life is now life is not later on and the more we hypnotize ourselves into thinking we have all the time in the world to do what we want to do the more we sleepwalk and the more we miss life number 45 welcome your problems every solution has a problem you can't have one without the other so why do we say that we hate problems why do we claim to want a hassle-free existence deep down where our wisdom lives we know that problems are not to be feared problems are simply tough games for the athletes of the mind and true athletes always want to get a game going if you learn to love the opportunity to your problems present then your motivational energy will always rise every solution has a problem number 46 drive a library one of the greatest opportunities for motivating yourself today lies in the way you use your drive time with a huge variety of audio tapes now available you can use your time on the road to educate and motivate yourself at the same time maybe that's where you're listening to this tape right now if we leave what we think about the chance or to an r-rated rock disc jockey then we lose a large measure of control over our own minds audio cassette learning is one of the surest ways to reprogram your subconscious mind it's one of the best ways to design an action-oriented belief system the kind you need to inspire ongoing self motivation number 47 rewind your thoughts perhaps you've noted some idea in this program or some recent book you've read that you want to hold on to even a single phrase if you place it prominently in your home or in your office can have a huge impact on your life so write things down put things up write down what motivates you and put it up where you can see it number 48 make yourself up one of the ways to get started creating goals and action clan's is just make them up like it did as a kid think of creating in simpler terms than that think of it as something that all humans do very easily the French physician Emile kuai said always think of what you have to do as easy and it will be number 49 get small most people participating in the free enterprise system has become thoroughly convinced of the power of setting large and specific long-range goals for themselves career goals yearly goals and monthly performance goals are always on the mind of a person with ambition but many people overlook altogether the power of small goals goals set during the day that gives energy to the day in a sense of achieving a lot of small wins along the way by increasing your conscious use of small objectives you'll see the larger objectives coming into reality much faster than you thought they would number 50 get out of the box all of us tend to look at our challenges from inside a box we take what we've done in the past and put it in front of our eyes and then try to envision what we call the future but you see that restricts our future with that kind of restricted view the best the future could possibly be is a new and better past great motivational energy occurs when we get out of that box and realize that the possibilities for creative ideas are infinite to create the best possible future for yourself don't try to look at it through a box containing your own past create the future from nothing number 51 advertise to yourself sports psychologists rhod Gilbert says quote losers visualize the penalties of failure and winners visualize the rewards of success without advertising our goals to ourselves we can lose sight of them all together now I'll often start the day by drawing four circles on a blank piece of paper the circles represent my day my month my year and my life inside each circle I write down what I want it can be a dollar figure it can be anything and the goals can change from day to day it doesn't matter there's no way to get this process wrong but by writing the goals down unlike an airline pilot looking at my map before takeoff I'm orienting my mind to what I'm up to in life I'm reminding myself of what I really want now when you get on a plane I mean would you poke your head into the cabin and say to the pilots uh just take me anywhere I mean that's how we live our lives that's how we live our lives when we don't make a mat number 52 don't stop thinking motivation comes from thought everything we do begins with a thought and when we quit thinking we lose the motivation to act we eventually slip into pessimism and the pessimism leads to even less thinking and so it goes a downward spiral of negativity and passivity feeding on each other pessimists think so negatively about doing the whole thing perfectly that they end up doing nothing and becoming passive whereas the optimist always does a little something always takes an action always feels like progress is being made pessimists continually use their imaginations to visualize worst case scenarios and then concluding that those scenarios is so hopeless that there's no cause for action therefore pessimism always leads to passivity optimists agree with : Wilson's point of view he said imagination should be used not to escape from reality but to create it begin to have it in yourself of saying no to negativity when negative thoughts start their argument in your mind which they always do even for optimists don't stop thinking real creative thinking is going to lead to optimism and optimism is always self motivating number 53 debate your dark side negative thinking is something we all do the difference between the person who is primarily optimistic and the person who is primarily pessimistic is that the optimist learns to become a good debater once you become thoroughly aware of the effectiveness of optimism in your life you can learn to debate your pessimistic thoughts if you catch yourself brooding worrying thinking pessimistically about an issue build a case for the optimistic view pretend you're an attorney whose job it is to prove the pessimist in you is wrong if you really want to open up your life go optimistic number 54 make use of trouble you know I think all of us have heard so many stories so many incidents were bad events looking back in retrospect were strokes of great fortune a person who breaks her leg skiing meets a doctor in the hospital falls in love marries and has a happy life what seemed horrible turns out to be unexpectedly great we begin to see the truth in what Richard Bach says every problem carries a gift inside it now by choosing to make use of seemingly bad events by asking yourself how can I use this what might be good about this you can get to the gift inside your problem a lot more quickly number 55 learn to brainstorm by yourself so try this put a goal on the top of the page and then put numbers 1 through 20 on that page and begin your brainstorming session list 20 ideas they don't have to be well thought out they don't have to be reasonable give yourself permission to flow your only objective is to have 20 ideas scroll down within a certain period of time if you do this for one week you'll end up with a hundred ideas are they all usable no of course not but who cares when you began the process you probably didn't have any useable ideas number 56 create your own voice other than time some have been told that I am lucky to have a good speaking voice many people are impressed sometimes I don't even use a microphone I speak to hundreds of people in the audience boom out to them and you know people will say boy you've been blessed with a powerful set of vocal cords I have to tell you it's not true my voice used to be no better than some feeble monitor and it really was really awful I mean I would talk like this and you know am I wearing I would love to see you today now look I said about to change it I always carry a number of cassettes in my car I always sing along with them I cranked them up good and loud by the way it's best done while you're driving alone and I sing at the top of my lungs I make certain I do it every day even when I don't feel like singing see that's the point don't let your feelings ruin your life keep thinking strategize plan you can create anything you want you can even create your own voice number 57 live on the frontier we've always had a real fascination with America's frontier days shows like Little House on the Prairie movies like Dances with Wolves I mean it reflects a real yearning for the was adventurous times now what's exciting what's really exciting about today is the new frontiers here the technological explosion our entry into the Information Age have created a situation in which employers are no longer interested in our job histories at least is not as much as they used to be what are they interested in right now our current capabilities for example let's say my company is trying to enter the Chinese market to sell its software and you at age 70 can speak fluent Chinese know all about software and have energy and zest for success how can I afford not to hire you times have changed this is the new frontier it's all about what you can do not about what you've done number 58 replace your habit self motivation is much more difficult to achieve when we're held back mentally by certain bad habits but here's the catch bad habits can't be gotten rid of because they exist for good reasons they're there to do something for us even if that something ends up being self-destructive is he down deep even a bad habit is trying to make us operate better that's why bad habits have to be transformed and built upon they can't be killed they can't be eliminated we have to go to the beneficial impulse that drives the habit and then build on that to make the habit grow from something bad into something good what we then achieve is habit replacement now where bad habits are concerned replacement is the only thing that works I've known people who quit smoking without even intending to maybe they took up running some form of aerobic exercise and soon the breathing and relaxation they were getting from the exercise made smoking feel so bad to their bodies they quit they quit smoking because they'd introduced a replacement subconsciously you don't even think your habit is bad because it's fulfilling a perceived need so the way to strengthen yourself is to identify the need and build on it honor the need by replacing the current habit with one that's healthier and more effective for you number 59 paint your day self motivation is much more difficult to achieve when we're held back mentally by certain bad habits when you wake up try picturing your day as a blank artist's canvas ask yourself who's the artist today me or blind circumstance if you choose to be the artist how do you want to paint your day number 60 swim laps underwater when bobby fisher' prepared for his World Championship chess match with Boris Spassky he prepared by swimming laps underwater every day he knew that as the chess matches wore on into the late hours the player with the most oxygen going to his brain would have the mental advantage so he built his brain by building his lungs sometimes all you need is the air that you breathe just to motivate yourself going for a run or a walk a simply deep breathing gives the brain the fuel it feeds on and motivation comes easy number 61 get some coaching after a disappointing round on the golf course Jack Nicklaus would often take a golf lesson when I first heard about this I said to myself who could give Jack Nicklaus a lesson in golf but that was before I ever really understood the value of coaching and then a young business consultant named Steve Hardison taught me something Nicklaus takes a lesson not because his coach is a better player but because his coach can stand back from Nicklaus and see his moves objectively so if coaching is appropriate for your golf or tennis game it could also be appropriate for the game of life as someone you admire to be honest with you and coach you for a while let him tell you what they see it's a courageous thing to do and it'll always lead to growth number 62 leave home once when Steve Hardison and I were discussing a few of my old habits that were holding me back from realizing my business goals I finally said to him but why why do I do those things I mean if I know they hold me back why do I continue to do them and he said you do them because they feel like home when you do those things you do them because that's what you're comfortable doing and so you make yourself right at home doing as they say there's no place like home home can be an ugly place if it's not kept up and consciously made beautiful home can be a dark damp prison smelling of bad habits and laziness but we think we're safe there however when we inspect the worn-out house more closely we can see that the safety we think we're experiencing is pure self limitation and you might want to identify the habits that keep you trapped identify what you've decided is your final personality for example understand that it might be a hasty construction built only to keep you safe from risk and growth see once you've done that you can leave you can leave home you can get the blueprints out and you can create a home you really want number 63 perform rituals as you listen to these various ways to motivate your so if you might have noticed that action is often the key doing something is what leads to doing something it's the law of the universe an object in motion stays in motion my own ritual for jump-starting the brain is walking many times in my life I've had a problem that seems so overwhelming it seemed too overwhelming to even do anything about but my ritual is to take the problem out for a long long walk time and time again during the course of the walks something comes out of nowhere some idea for an action that would solve the problem so try making up a risco for yourself anything that will act as a self-starter rituals will have you in action before you feel like getting into action rituals always override your built-in laziness they always get you motivated in a predictable controllable way number 64 start your life over if you catch yourself thinking that you're too old to do something you want to do please recognize that you're now listening to the pessimistic voice inside of you it's the voice of a liar talk back remind the voice of all the people in life who started their lives over again at any age they wanted to john houseman the Emmy Award winning actor in the Paper Chase he started acting professionally when he was 73 years old don't listen to the voice inside you can start your life over right now number 65 keep all your promises one way I used to motivate myself was to make some unreasonable promise to go to someone I cared about either personally or professionally and promise something really big something that will take all the effort and creativity I had to make it happen but you know there were times when those huge promises I made weren't kept and I realized over the years it's not really an intelligent way to self-motivate today I'll make commitments to other people but their commitments that I know I can keep but to motivate myself I've replaced promising others with setting goals inside myself the power of goals is that they can be outrageous they can be huge and they can free up really wild possibility thinking without setting large goals internally what I tend to do is just live a life of things that I think I have to do number 66 some luck away basketball coach John Wooden used to say you cannot live a perfect day without doing something for someone who will never be able to repay you I agree with that and there's a way to make sure you can't be repaid that's doing something for someone who won't even know who did it now this gets into a theory I've had all my life and that is you can create luck you can create luck in your life by giving it away see if you can't begin creating your own luck number 67 draw your universe if you use my four-minute four circle goal-setting system that I talked about earlier you can create your own goal-directed universe try this after you wake up in the morning wipe the sleep from your eyes sit down with a pad of paper and draw four circles now these are your own planets label the first circle lifelong dream your lifelong dream might be to save a half a million dollars for your retirement years so put that number in your life circle then look at the next planet in your solar system circle to that circle you're going to label my year what do you need to save in the next twelve months in order to be on course to hit your life savings goal now that you've got your first two circles filled with a number move to the third circle my month what would you have to save each month to hit your year's goal then put that number down and go to the final circle my day what would you need to do today that if you repeated it every day would ensure a successful month you can't help but see that each circle have done successfully guarantees the success of the next circle if you hit your daily goal every day your monthly goal is automatically hit in fact you don't even have to worry about it and if your monthly goal is reach the yearly goal has to happen it's mathematical and if your yearly goals are hit the lifelong goal cannot not be reached then you can see proven for you that your life and your day are the same thing you can create your own universe any way you like the system itself is not the motivator your understanding of your responsibility to be a creative planner that's what the motivator is number 68 get up a game if you're really interested in motivation there's nothing more fun than competition competition has a bad name these days it shouldn't it teaches you the valuable lesson that no matter how good you are there's always somebody better than you that's the lesson in humility everybody needs and it teaches you that by trying to beat somebody else you reach for more inside of you trying to beat somebody else puts the game back into life and if it's done optimistically it gives energy to both competitors it teaches sportsmanship and it gives you a benchmark for measuring your own growth so in your life let the games begin have fun winning and losing and when someone has insulted you or underrated you don't just get even get better use your victory not to hurt them but to create you number 69 turn your mother down in dr. Martin Seligman's studies of optimism pessimism he found out a remarkable fact we first learned how to explain the world to ourselves from our parents and more specifically our mothers I'm quoting from dr. Selig young children listen to what their primary caretaker usually the mother says about causes and they tend to make this style their own if the child has an optimistic mother this is great but it can be a disaster for the child if the child has a pessimistic mother fortunately selling them studies shows the disaster only needs to be temporary that optimism can be learned at any age now it's not self motivating the blame mom if you find yourself to be a pessimist blaming someone never self motivates because it strengthens the belief that your life is being shaped by forces outside yourself love your mom she learned her pessimism from her mother but change yourself number 70 face the Sun Helen Keller wrote when you face the Sun the shadows always fall behind you this was Helen Keller's poetic way of recommending optimistic thinking what you look at what you face grows in your life what you ignore falls behind you but if you turn and look only at the shadows they become your life number 71 look inside most of us wait to find out who we are from impressions and opinions we get from other people oh do you really think I'm good at that we ask somebody complements us if we're persuaded that they're being honest I've made a good case we might alter our self-image upward that's great getting feedback from others especially positive feedback but your journey should be internal travel deeper and deeper inside to find out your own potential your potential is your true identity it only waits for self motivation to come alive number 72 go to war Anthony Burgess was 40 when he learned he had a brain tumor that would kill him within a year he was completely broke and he didn't have anything to leave behind for his wife Lynne who was soon to be a widow Burgess had never been a professional novels in the past but he always knew it was inside him to be a writer so for the sole purpose of leaving behind royalties for his wife he put a piece of paper into the typewriter and he began writing he had no certainty that he'd ever even be published but he couldn't think of anything else to do Burgess wrote energetically he finished five and a half novels before that year was through but he didn't die his cancer had gone into remission and then it disappeared altogether in his long and full life Anthony Burgess wrote more than seven any books without the death sentence from cancer he might not have written anything you know it's funny but research shows that during kinds of war suicide rates go down we don't have to wait for something tragic we don't have to wait for a war to attack us from without we can get the same vitality by challenging ourselves from within Joan of Arc said all battles our first one are lost in the mind a useful exercise for self motivation might be this ask yourself what would you do if you had Anthony Burgess's original predicament if I had just a year to live how would I live differently what exactly what I do that question can inspire surprising flaws it can reveal skills inside you that you're not using today number 73 make small change when I first begin working on self motivation a long time ago I'd go through all kinds of emotional mood swings I get really high on the idea of who I could be I'd set out to change myself overnight and then my old habits would pull me right back to who I used to be that I'd become demoralized later in my life I finally caught on to the idea that great things are often created slowly create paintings great buildings so why couldn't great people be created slowly so if you're willing to see yourself as a masterpiece in progress then you'll love small changes you'll be excited by a tiny thing you did differently today if you want a stronger body and you took the stairs instead of the elevator celebrate you're moving in the direction of self creation number 74 do something badly sometimes we don't do things because we're not sure we can do them well we feel we're not in the mood or at the right energy level to do the task we have to so we put it off or wait for inspiration to arrive we're so afraid to do things until we're sure we'll do well we don't do anything this is the source of all writer's block by the way this tendency led GK Chesterton to say if the thing is worth doing it's worth doing badly if you're not motivated to do something you know you need to do just decide to do it badly add a little self-deprecating humor be comically bad at what you're doing and then enjoy what happens to you once you're in the process number 75 be a Visioneer a few years ago I began working with motivational speaker and author dr. Dennis Keaton and he allowed me to learn and even teach his principles of vision earing which he defines as engineering dreams into reality by the use of active mental imaging the principle is this you can't do anything that you can't picture yourself doing vision earring is just another word for picturing yourself once you make the picturing process conscious and deliver it you begin to create the self you want to be number 76 shine your light justesen used to say that taking things lightly was the most spiritually advanced thing you could do to improve your effectiveness in life after all said Chesterton it's because God's angels take themselves so lightly that they're able to fly and if his angels take themselves that lightly imagine how much more lightly he takes himself your own motivational level will always be lifted with humor anytime you're stuck ask yourself to take things lightly ask yourself to come up with some funny solutions laughter will destroy all limits to your thinking when you're laughing you're open to anything number 77 be a list writer never hesitate to sit down with yourself and make lists the more you write down what it is you want the more you can dictate your own future a goal gains power when you write it down and it gains more power every time you write it down now we're always looking for motive and what others have written but if you become a creative list maker you learn how to motivate yourself by what you've really number 78 be the change don't try to change other people it doesn't work you'll waste your life trying we talk to our children for hours about how we think they should change but children don't learn from what we say they learn from what we do by being what you want them to be you can lead by inspiration what you tell people to do often goes right by them who you are doesn't the change in you is contagious when you yourself change watch how the people around you change number 79 see the goals in every circumstance we can look for the gold or we can look for the filth and what we look for we'll find opportunities are like those subatomic quantum particles that come into existence only when they're seen by an observer your opportunities will multiply when and only when you choose to see them number 80 simplify the Great Green Bay Packer football coach Vince Lombardi was once asked why his World Championship team which had so many multi-talented players ran such a basic and simple set of place it's hard to be aggressive he answered when you're confused when you simplify your life it gathers energy number 81 pin life down recently I was working with car dealer Henry Brown of brown and brown Nissan which is a nationally celebrated Nissan dealership he was telling me a story about his son a high school wrestler now his boy had been getting only fair results in wrestling this year so Henry went and talked to him and he learned that he entered each match completely prepared to counter anything his opponent tried and no matter how gifted Henry son was at countering most countering was still countering so finally Henry suggested to his son that he try entering a wrestling match with a plan a series of moves that he would initiate the meta Waters opponent tried and the boy agreed and the results were remarkable he began winning match after match pinning opponent after opponent the young wrestlers goal had always been to win he didn't have a problem setting big goals but as Nathaniel Branden says a goal without an action plan is a daydream before any adventure take time to plan let life respond to you if you're making all the first moves you'll be surprised and how often you can pin life down number 80 to strengthen your purpose energy comes from purpose if the left side of the brain tells the right side that there's a sufficient crisis the right side sends energy and sometimes superhuman energy and that's why there's such a difference between people who set and achieve goals all day and people who just do whatever comes up whatever they feel like doing to the first person is always added purpose to the other there is boredom and confusion the two greatest robbers of energy because we are totally responsible for our own sense of purpose that also means that we're totally responsible for the energy in our lives number 83 go on a news fast I first heard the phrase news fast from dr. Andrew Weil now he actually tells his patients to stop watching the news for a few weeks and he gets great results they sleep better their whole systems are better my own recommendation for a news fast has to do with self motivation if you go for periods of time without listening to or reading the news you'll notice an upswing in your optimism about life you'll really feel a lift in energy your mind is yours to fill with whatever you want the more you accept the responsibility of filling it the easier it will be to build an optimistic and effective mindset number 84 choose an action when you find yourself worrying about something always ask yourself an action question what can I do about this right now and then do something any small thing anything that worries you should be acted on not just thought about even small actions start to chase away your fears and put you back in control of creating what you want number 85 be a thinker I was doing some seminars for a large office company in Las Vegas and the president told me something that was really interesting he said he had basically two kinds of people working for him the whiners and the thinkers the whiners were often very smart dedicated employees who worked long hours but when they came into the president's office it was always to complain here's what he said they're great at finding fault with other managers and telling me what's wrong with our systems but they're a drain on me because they're so negative I end up trying to make him feel better and after that I'm depressed now the thinkers on the other hand had a different way of coming into the office with problems here's what he said about them the thinkers come to me with ideas they see the same problems that the whiner see but they've already thought about possible solutions when you're committed to self motivation you'll follow into the realm of the thinker naturally you'll be more valuable to your organization and to yourself number 86 choose enjoyment there's a huge difference between pleasure and enjoyment and when we're absolutely clear about the difference we can grow much faster towards who we want to be what we do for pleasure for example routine sex eating drinking all kinds of short-term stuff that's different than what we do for enjoyment enjoyment always involves the use of a skill and it always involves facing a challenge things like sailing gardening golfing any kind of activity that involving skills meeting a challenge result in enjoyment people who get clear on the difference begin to know how to consciously put more enjoyment into their lives number 87 read mystery novels the first one of the highest IQ ever measured Marilyn Vos savant recommends mystery novels as brain builders here's what she says not only is this exercise fun but it's good for you I'm not talking about violent thrillers or police procedural novels but instead I'm directing you to those elegant clue filled intelligent mysteries solved by drawing conclusions not guns unquote Marilyn Vos savant believes strongly that the brain can be built as surely and as quickly as the muscles of the body so the next time you feel like curling up with a good mystery don't feel guilty you might be doing the most productive thing you've done all day number 88 express your thoughts go ahead and feel your feelings but when it's time to talk be thoughtful and express your thoughts number 89 use your weaknesses make a list of your strengths and your weaknesses on separate pieces of paper place the list of strengths somewhere where you see it again because just looking at it alloys pick you up now look at your list of so-called weaknesses and study them for a while stay with it until you feel no shame or guilt about them allow them to become interesting characteristics instead of anything negative ask yourself how each characteristic could be useful to you when Arnold Schwarzenegger became a professional actor he had a weakness his thick Austrian accent it wasn't long however before Arnold incorporated his accent into the charm of his action hero persona on the screen and a former weakness became a strength his accent became an identifying part of his character and people everywhere were imitating it now there isn't anything on your weakness list that can't be a strength for you if you think about it long enough number 90 try becoming your problem whatever type of problem you're facing the most self motivational exercise I know of is to immediately say to yourself I'm the problem because once you see yourself as the problem you can see yourself as the solution by seeing ourselves as victims of our problems we lose the power to solve them to activate the power inside ourselves we need to take only two essential steps one on the problem and to create the solution number 91 inflate your goal there is another self motivator that must be used as an intellectual tool only take a certain goal of yours and double it or triple it or multiply it by 10 and then ask yourself quite seriously what would you have to do to achieve that new goal now I've often used this method for self motivation with myself if I have a goal of signing say two Seminar contracts in the next three weeks I'll often get out a pad of paper and ask how would I get 10 contracts signed in three weeks it always puts me at a different level of thinking and because I'm solving the problem of 10 I always get at least to remember it's just a self-contained game not a promise to anybody else but it is a game that's fun to play why because it works number 92 come to your own rescue there are two ideas that are contained in the work of psychotherapist Nathaniel and devar's Brandon that have helped me incredibly here's the first one you can't leave a place you've never been and here's the other one no one is coming I used to believe I could run from all my frightening thoughts and beliefs about myself but all that ever did was create deeper internal fears and conflicts what I really needed was to get all my fears into the sunshine and demystify them once I systematically began to do that I was able to dismantle the fears like a bomb squad does to a bomb acceptance and full consciousness of those fears was the place I've never been once I was in that place I could leave now the notion that no one's coming was more terrifying that idea sounded too much like abandoned many of us even as grown-ups devised very elaborate subtle variations of the theme I want my mommy the Brandon's showed me that I could be much happier much more effective if I valued independence and self responsibility above dependency on someone else so when you accept the idea that no one's coming it's actually a very powerful moment because it means that you're enough you can handle your problems yourself you can grow you can get strong you can generate your own happiness and paradoxically from that position of Independence truly great relationships can be built because they're not based on dependency they're not based on fear they're based on mutual independence and love see how much better you are at self motivation once you've begun to celebrate the news that you are enough number 93 push your own buttons motivation never has to be accidental any form of motivation a lot of people like to motivate themselves musically for example but you don't have to wait for hours until a certain song comes on the radio that picks up your spirits you can control what songs you hear if there are certain songs that always lift you up create a greatest motivational hits tape for yourself you've got much more control over your environment than you've ever realized learn how to push your own buttons number 94 strengthen your rehearsal the harder you are in yourself the easier life is on you there isn't anything life can challenge you with that you can't challenge yourself with in advance you can set yourself up to succeed if you have to make a presentation in front of someone who scares you you can always rehearse it first in front of someone who scares you more if you've got something hard to do and you're hesitant to do it pick out something even harder into that first watch what it does to your self motivation going into the real challenge number 95 improve your vision Robert Fritz said it's not what a vision is it's what a vision does so what is your vision do does it give you energy does it make you smile when you're tired does it take you that extra mile a vision should be judged by these criteria the criteria of power and effectiveness in other words what does it do what do you want to bring into being if your vision isn't giving you energy then picture another one keep at it until you develop a vision that's so colorful and so clear it puts you in action just to think about it number 96 build your power base the more awake you are the more conscious you are and the more you pay attention to how your own efforts at self motivation are succeeding the more powerful you will become your knowledge of self motivation is power in and of itself respect your knowledge and build on it number 97 link truth to beauty to me the best case for honesty is how beautiful it is how clean and clear it makes the journey from current reality to the dream truth leads you to a more confident level in your relationships with others and with yourself it diminishes fear it increases your sense of personal mastery lies half-truths the lowest weight whereas truth will clear up your thinking and give you the energy and clarity needed for self motivation number 98 take no for a question ask the universe for what you want don't take no for an answer take no for a question when you ask for something and it's denied to you imagine that the know you heard is really the question can't you be more creative than that never accept no at face value let rejection motivate you to get more creative number 99 walk with love and death whenever I need to get through something face something or create a courageous kind of action plan I always take long walks when I walk long and far enough a solution always appears I eventually get oriented to the most creative course of action and drew while in his book spontaneous healing says when you walk the movement of your limbs is cross patterned the right leg and left arm move forward at the same time then the left leg and right arm this type of movement generates electrical activity in the brain that has a harmonizing influence on the central nervous system a special benefit of walking that you don't necessarily get from other kinds of exercise I call it a walk with love because love and fear are opposites most people think love and hate are opposites but they're not the ultimate creativity occurs from spirit of love love is always creative and fear is always destructive and I call it a walk with death because it's only the acceptance and awareness of my own death that gives my life the clarity it needs to be exciting take your own challenges out for a walk feel yourself motivation growing inside you feel the electricity in your brain feel it harmonize with your central nervous system you'll soon know for a fact that you do have what it takes you can walk courage into existence number 100 buy yourself flowers buy yourself flowers and every time you look at them let them remind you of how colorful your future is going to be how fresh your thoughts are how easy it is for you to honor yourself how much power you have to make your environment beautiful and how sweet the smell of the universe can be [Music] you | AJ SIMMONS - Clean Biz Network | UCHLYt_LJmvvmsyp-wKYX0lw | 2017-08-04 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse

SxpxuBLuieI | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SxpxuBLuieI | #Parks | Leviticus: Sacrifice and Communion | 30/01/22 | Matt Winbow | today we're continuing in our series looking at the big story of the whole bible from genesis through to revelation and today we're going to be doing a deep dive into leviticus i know right i mean it's everyone's favorite book isn't it um as i said previously in uh when we were looking at acts in acts 15 the apostles felt led by the spirit to ask non-jewish christians to obey the laws within leviticus that are for resident aliens or foreigners living among you so in your readings this week perhaps pays special attention to those sections and you see that you know that's just summarized of in acts 15 and the apostolic decree there as we look at the animal sacrifices it's worth noting that god in history works with people within their cultural setting god could have spoken to bronze age israelites and said i know everyone else around you is offering incense and they're offering sacrifices but i just want your obedience why didn't you just assemble once a week have you know half an hour of music followed by a bible reading torah reading and then just get someone to explain it why don't you just do that god could have done that that would have been very weird within a bronze age context and god didn't do that rather he lets israel approach him in the language that they already understood incense and sacrifice god accommodates down to our level and god chooses to communicate with bronze age people in bronze age ways so that people can understand and they can respond to him in a manner that they understand and priorities dealings with israel god continues to tell them through the prophets that obedience is better than sacrifice and in psalm 51 verses 16 through to 17 we read this certainly you do not want to sacrifice or else i would offer it you do not desire burn sacrifice the sacrifice god desires is a humble spirit oh god a humble and a repentant heart you will not reject so god through the prophets through the psalms is trying to shift people into a new understanding about what he is like and how he's fully revealed in jesus of nazareth for a moment i think it's very important to talk about what sacrifices actually are and i've said some of this before but imagine you're a stone you're in the stone age you're a hunter gatherer tribe you're just walking through a forest somewhere and then you encounter another group of humans you've got a number of options available to you you could attack them you could take all their stuff or you could offer them food offer them hospitality perhaps join together perform an alliance or or peace or do some trading that's the very heart of what sacrifice is about if you come across a spirit in a certain place you can't kill a spirit they're far more powerful than you but you could befriend them sacrifices not about the killing but the eating it's about fellowshipping with spirits getting them on your side to help with your issue so the main purposes of all sacrifices then is to offer hospitality to spirits through rituals to keep them friendly to keep them on your side so they will fight in your battles so what we're discovering through places uh through archaeology through like 12 thousand year old gobekli tepee in turkey is that the first centers of humanized human civilization are built around ritual sites places of pilgrimage for hunter-gatherers historians used to think civilization came first and then religion came out of civilization but it's actually the other way around humans encountered spirits they built shrines those shrines became pilgrimage places that then needed round-the-clock care which caused towns and cities and farm to develop around those ritual sites so temples then we should understand is kind of like guest houses for spirits and those who want to eat with them you would offer a roast lamb and spirits would get the blood and the fat as their portion and then you would eat the meat in the temple in their presence sharing the meal they have their portion you have your portion and that's true for israelite religion as well so if we have a place like ezekiel 44 we read there in ezekiel um 44 verses 6 and 7 say to the rebellious of the house of israel this is what the sovereign lord says enough of all your abominable practices o house of israel when you bring foreigners those uncircumcised in heartening flesh into my sanctuary you desecrate even my house when you offer my food the fat and the blood you've broken my covenant with all of your abominable practices and so here we see the concept which the translator is getting at is that god is describing the blood and the fat as his food it's not because god's hungry but because that's what sacrifices are that's what they're about they're about fellowship they're about communion which is why the apostles tell people not to eat meat that's been sacrificed to idols they don't want christians fellowshipping with demonic spirits paul says you can't eat at the communion table and then at the table of demons you've got to choose which side you want to have fellowship with and within the levitical system of sacrifices there's a number of different types of offerings there's incense offerings sin offerings peace offerings and these offerings are often given for very specific events or circumstances that are taking place and as i've said if primarily sacrifice is about feasting and sharing food with god it's not about the killing but the eating you kill it only so that you can eat it then the killing is not the ritualized part but the eating is it's about fellowship it's about mending a broken relationship say you have a falling out with someone at work and their relationship is a little bit strained one way to resolve the situation might be to go out for a meal together chat about what's happened and how we can fix it and if things are going bad it might might be a steak meal you know take them out get them the works but if things are going very bad you might need a whole oxen okay it's an oxen sort of dinner because things are in very bad repair so you might have to pay a bit more go to a nicer more fancy restaurant and we need to see sacrifice in these terms often a sacrifice is described within leviticus as being a pleasing aroma to god it's cooked it's literally burnt on on the fire um and the blood and the fat are given to god as his portions there's other things that are also offered there's oil grain wine these things aren't killed because you can't kill them in that sense you know so again sacrifice isn't about the killing it's about the eating that's why you do sacrifice wine it's why you do sacrifice oil that's why you do sacrifice grain because it's about the eating not the killing if you understand it's like having a big barbecue with god in a world where blood represents life force the israelites are saying you know hey god the crackling you know the fatty bit is the best bit so that belongs to you and since you're the source of life here's the life of this animal also returned to you it's blood so the fat and the blood belong to god now passover for example the lamb will be slaughtered at the temple parts of it given on the altar and then the rest is given back to the family so they can go home and eat it and have fellowship with god part of it is on the altar with god but the other half is with the family so they're eating it with god it's a meal that is shared with god and the family okay so one of the major differences between a sacrificial meal offered by israel and the pagans around them is that the sacrificial system in israel also have this ethical dimension since every single human is an image of god how you treat another human is a religious act because if you're treating it you're doing it to god because they're an image of god so pagans for example they won't let you desecrate their temples they don't want you offending their gods by defacing an idol or something israel didn't want to desecrate another human being because they're the image of god god doesn't want his image defaced so how you treat another human affects your relationship with god because they're his image so part of how we understand sacrifice is also linked to how we understand sin often paul in the bible talk about sin not sins and this is important in genesis chapter 4 verse 7 cain is told sin is crouching at the door it desires to dominate you but you must submit you must subdue it in the bible sin is often presented as this power or force that is active in the world like a disease it has a corrupting influence and we commit sins when we partner with sin we like cain allow it to dominate us which is why paul in his letters talks about you know we can either partner with sin or we can partner with the spirit and use the spirit to put the power of sin to death in us you know so that we've got these options am i gonna cooperate with sin and its power or with the spirit in its power you know how you live your life and the levites are not hanging around in the tabernacle waiting for chaps you know noah saul you know isaac or whatever they might be called to come in with some lambs because they've happened to do something naughty sin offerings are constantly continuously being offered in the tabernacle let's just think about sin as a disease suppose someone's caught covered we might socially distance from that person so that we don't catch it and we'd also clean the things that they've touched so that they don't spread the virus onto other people in exactly the same way the blood of sacrifices is spread around the sacred space the tabernacle the temple to cleanse it from the pollution the disease of sin that people bring with them just naturally into the area into the holy place and blood represents life and so in a world view of these bronze age people it's the best cleaning products you're literally splashing life a life force everywhere you know um it's silly bang eat your heart out you know mr muscle you know not a touch on that the idea is for god to live among his people a sin free area a sanitized area a coveted free area as it were needs to be maintained because otherwise god is going to break out his holiness is going to consume the camp which god doesn't want to happen he doesn't want people to to suddenly be overcome with the holiness of god that he can't live with them anymore or he's just going to have to leave like he does in the exile so they had to keep cleaning up this sacred space splashing blood on it in order to keep the sacred area clean so that god could dwell there often we think about the sacrifices are thanking god for things particularly grain and wine offerings thank god for the harvest let me take you out for dinner thanks god for the birth of my son let's have a roast dove meal together on me you will notice that the priests also get to eat the meat and so does the person offering it and the the idea is having this shared meal with god and his representatives the priesthood in malachi chapter 1 verse 11. god speaks of the nations turning to worship him and he says my name will be great among the nations from where the sun rises to where it sets in every place incense and pure offerings will be brought to me because my name will be great among the nations says the lord almighty and christians from the very very earliest time have taken this passage to speak of holy communion and incense as a symbol of prayer like we find in the book of revelation where prayer is rising as incense before god the hebrew word for pure offering here is translated elsewhere as a meal offering in exodus 30 verse 9 or is the grain offering in leviticus 9 verse 4. and so the word used to describe the male sacrifice without blood it's a bloodless offering so within rabbinical judaism itself the expectation is in the coming messianic age sacrifices will cease but the thank-offering will never cease so for christians the concept of the thank offering of grain and wine lives on in the fulfillments of malachi's words as holy communion and the earliest name for communion is eucharistia meaning thanksgiving one early christian justin martyr that's not his surname is what happened to him um writing about 155 a.d so that's 212 years before the final books of the new testament were finalized writes regarding this passage in malachi he says this speaks of the gentiles namely us who in every place offer sacrifices to him the bread of the eucharist and the cup of the eucharist affirming both that we glorify his name and the you profane it so paul writes in first corinthians chapter 10 16 is not the cup of thanksgiving the cup of eucharistia for which we give thanks a participation in the blood of christ the meal itself is a cup of thanksgiving another first century jew philo of alexandria described the passover as a festival of thanksgiving he writes this festival is instituted in remembrance of and is giving thanks eucharistia for the great migration that they made out of egypt so in the same way the christian new passover the eucharist the communion since we've been set free in christ from bondage of sin and death and hell the real difference however is that the person asking the other person to go out for the date has been reversed in leviticus is human saying thanks god for the harvest let me buy you a meal this is god saying in the new covenant i'm gonna provide the sacrifice and the food come and eat with me the roles have been reversed one a very very old christian communion hymn it goes like this let all metal mortal flesh keep silence it says christ our god to earth descendeth our full homage to demand king of kings yet born of mary as of old on earth he stood lord of lords in human vesture in the body and the blood he will give to all the faithful his own self for heavenly food and the idea at the heart of sacrifice is that by sharing a meal the fellowship is restored okay you make up over the meal that broken relationship is mended over the shared meal and that's why in paul says in first corinthians chapter 10 verse 21 you cannot drink the cup of the lord in the cup of demons you cannot have a part in the lord's table and the table of demons the question is who are we going to eat with christ himself says come and eat let's restore the relationship it is christ himself who offers himself his food for us in the body and the blood as bread and wine so in first corinthians chapter 10 verse 15 to 18 paul rights i speak to sensible people judge for yourself what i say is not the cup of thanksgiving that which we give thanks a participation in the blood of christ it is not the bread that we break a participation in the body of christ because there is one loaf we who are many are one body for we all share the one life consider the people of israel do not those who eat the sacrifices participate in the altar and paul's point here is that israel ate the sacrifices and so had fellowship with god and with one another in exactly the same way as we who are in the messiah eat his flesh and blood and so united with god and each other by eating of the sacrifice so in paul's words we who are many are one body because we all share the same loaf of bread so in conclusion friends you're invited to a banquet christ has provided the food he gives himself as bread and wine to restore our relationship with the father he's a high priest and he offers a sacrifice of himself come and eat come to the table of the lord come and have fellowship with him let us pray heavenly father we just thank you for the sacrifice of your son for us that we receive as bread and wine and we thank you that we are united with him through the sacrifice that we have the forgiveness of our sins the cleansing on the inside as the blood sprinkles us on the inside cleansing us from all sin and that we are his body because we share in the bread and the where for we're his image in the world let us live out that calling

CJNdNrrEnFs | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CJNdNrrEnFs | (LIVE!!! GTA V me being an idiot | w we did you invite me to your uh SES yet [Music] or can you send me an invite to the SES cuz said invite only Wolfie I'm just going to start up a close close friend session wait what would happen if the human race didn't exist if the human race didn't exist nothing would happen cuz we didn't exist and the Earth would be flourishing it wouldn't be dying because you got to think about it there's such thing as invasive species invasive species are things that overpopulate and take over ecosystems and Destroy things what do we do what do what are we we are overpopulated we have destroyed a lot and nature is trying to balance itself out by killing us off and every time it does we just build something to protect us from it life isn't balanced on Earth it's imbalanced that's why the Earth is going through so much right now it's because of all the stuff we're doing to it we're not treating it the way we need to treat it and for [ __ ] sakes I know I sound like a [ __ ] tree hugger saying that but to be honest if we want to live on this Earth for a little bit longer before the sun explodes I mean we'll have to stop using everything we won't be able to drive cars we' have to go back to horses for a year uh we wouldn't be able to go out cuz if you didn't notice uh when Co happened if you didn't notice our climate the climate around the world started going back to normal and it's not climate change really it's just the effect we have on the earth it's nothing to do with climate change uh climate change in a way is something that we need to worry about but not right now the polar ice caps aren't melting because of climate change it's melting because of all the heat we're producing uh all the mining we're doing all the operations we're doing on uh in the at the polar ice caps it's altering its ecosystem which is causing it to melt we need to stop going there or else the polar ice caps are going to melt completely there's nothing we can do to stop it besides stop going to the polar ice caps cuz we're generating too much heat we're changing the ecosystem we're terraforming it it's another form of terraforming you're terraforming its ground by drilling holes into it you're terraforming it by introducing new elements to its ecosystem for example uh the polar ice CS ecosystem is used to being extremely cold so no heat nothing you bring in housing that creates generates heat which generates uh greenhouse gases that's going to cause the polar ice caps to heat up which is going to cause this ecosystem to become terraformed which means it's going to turn into every other land there is but unfortunately if the polar ice caps melt will'll be flooded for 3 to 4 years can you come pick me up uh yes just let me enter my garage but it's like people are blaming these polar ice caps melting and all that because they don't want to take responsibility for their actions all these science groups all these people saying oh yeah we're there just to benefit it if you are there to benefit it then stop [ __ ] building housing you go there you leave you don't build housing you put up a tent okay you don't need lodges you put up TS you don't need heating you insulate it be smart climate change uh the way the polar ice caps are melting and how like shit's changing cuz wolf be brought up uh if the Earth didn't exist and I said I mean if humans didn't exist the Earth would be flourishing because the human species is an invasive species an invasive species is is a species that destroys environments and overpopulate the human species destroys environments and overp populates we are an invasive species the Earth has been trying to balance us out by eradicating us to balance out the balance of life but it can't because we ke on keep on building things that protect us from Mother Nature so if we if like like I said if you didn't notice when Co happened all the ecosystems started going back to normal weather started becoming more peaceful like it is mainly just because no one was driving cars there's no greenhouse gases going around really no one could fly around everyone had to really walk or take public transportation or drive and you weren't really allowed to go anywhere unless it was important grocery shopping otherwise you couldn't do anything you couldn't go out and do activities and all that didn't have to drive everywhere I noticed that the weather in Canada Australia uh actually the polar ice cap started freezing again during Co like if you paid attention to the weather everything started balancing out [Music] again that's just how I am in well yeah to you sounds like blabbing to it's all actually it's what it is technique it's a lecture I'm explaining something that really you don't understand that well but you understand it but to you it's just someone [ __ ] blabbering on I'm giving I'm giving people like a [ __ ] education about this starting of this stream Jesus but like all we like like I said if you looked at the weather patterns during Co before and after you look at the weather patterns before and then after Co and then look at the weather patterns during Co you'll notice that it started smoothing out uh in Canada here our Winters started being less harsh in certain provinces and started being a little bit nicer um the Summers here in Canada weren't too scorching hot like it was semi balanced and it was still balancing itself as it went but then all the restrictions went away and now we're back to square one which is why people are trying to influence the the flux of uh electric cars but we're doing it wrong we're using lithium batteries we're taking minerals from the earth which is still going to induce Terror forming changing of the planet and it's still going to hurt the planet we got to stop taking [ __ ] from the planet to power our Automobiles and start making it ourselves we it's either we figure out how the [ __ ] power power harness the power of the Sun or we start using vegetable oil the power our cars the bar of the sun yes it would be Health it would be better because it would also what it would do the radi not just the radiation but the expel of the power cuz it's pure energy would also revive and re vitalize the Earth because of all the nutrients they're getting from The Offspring from the power of the sun power in her cars so if we ever figured out how to harness the power of the Sun the power of vehicles and electronics and all of that which we will never because you also got to remember it would be free free Power they' have to figure out a way to monetize space but there's a law that says they can't do that so they're never going to try and figure out how to harness the power of the sun because they can't make money off it just think about it our entire Society is all about money everything is monopolized even things that were Le that have laws in the United Nations that aren't supposed to be monopolized are monopolized uh grocery shopping that's monopolized and there's a law within the United Nations that no country can monopolize uh groceries or things that are needed to live so for example rent housing we countries are monopolizing off of that but legally they can't they can't technically make your rent over 2500 $2,500 a month because that's unlivable you can't afford groceries that way now because your groceries are hiked because they're monopolizing off it they're putting taxes on it so you have to pay the money just to have food like your government always needs a [ __ ] cut it's like oh wait no no no no give us some money we want it y you're growing crops give us some money we want it they always need money we need a [ __ ] I mus said this we need to start having a one coherent currency so nothing can be monopolized and to be honest at I trust and at the same time don't trust youi must to make it but Elon Musk if you ever [ __ ] see this do it otherwise all the things you're trying to do to make the planet safer and livable for years to come for future Generations is going down the [ __ ] drain you're not doing [ __ ] with your electric cars trust me you may have kickstarted like an entire thing in the automotive industry but you have yet to change your climate you have yet to change anything about the Earth everything is still the same so you ask if you ever see this which you probably will never see this make that currency you've been talking about and then enforce it you have the money too do it mhm yeah yeah but the only thing is the laws of Freedom they can't do that it takes away [Music] Freedom more safe yeah like uh like it's just the the fact that if they start enforcing more uh restrictive laws then that's when it becomes like oh our citizens feel unfree oh we feel like we're in a dictatorship which in reality it's nothing like the the um what's it called uh the North Korea nothing like that like we would still have a democracy like we still vote in our Prime Ministers and president it's not I mean they enforce restricted laws yes but it's just because of their the leader but if we found a way to like make communism and uh not communist um dictator dictatorship and um democracy work we could fix everything like Society wouldn't be broken we could balance everything out it's just because dictatorship and democracy is so different we can't balance find the yin and yang in between the two so it's kind of hard to bring a Communist dictatorship into into um uh a monopolistic democracy like we need to create an entirely different democracy it would need to be a communist democracy which is hard to make because of the Blurred Lines like for example with Communism we share everything uh break and Enter doesn't exist you can just walk into someone's house and they can't do [ __ ] you just can't steal anything you can't take anything uh but they can just walk in your house and say hi cuz you share everything in a communist community in a communist Society everything is shared so even money is shared so like you never hit a debt ceiling your money is always recycled everything's shared that's the whole point of a communist Society but the only problem about a communist Society is it most mostly comes from a dictatorship type of government so a communist decide with the dictatorship government well the dictatorship well he's the only person in charge and he gets to change everything whenever the [ __ ] he wants now if it was a democracy it'd be different it'd be a democracy uh communist and it' be like you voted the primary Ministers of the presidents and they change what they what needs to be changed and it goes through a voting system and everything and if it doesn't pass the vote then it's fine but we're still Communists we're not one we're not a monop monopolistic uh democracy we still share everything uh there's no taxes and money is still recycled and the economy is still flourishing like the only reason why Russia is so self- daining as it is it's because it's communist it's a Communist dictatorship but it's still the money has been the same like they've never really I've never heard anything about Russia a de cealing like they've they've been rich and they've had pretty good economy like I'm pretty sure even during the Great Depression their economy was still pretty good I'll have to fact check myself on that later on but like [ __ ] like that it's harder to fix Society than it sounds like it sounds easy but it's completely like complicated and insane at the same time because you got to figure out how to make a communist country communistic a communist Society work with democracy instead of dictatorship because the communist country communist Society works better with a dictatorship country a monopolist society works better with a democracy so like it's hard to combin the two a monopolis take away the monopolis part and make it a communist democracy instead of a monopolist democracy that's all we really need to do is change from uh a monopoly type democracy and just bringing communism where we share everything just Chang the rules to where no you can't walk into other people's house that's still a break and Enter that's still against the law but like use the stuff where it's like oh um no taxes on produce but taxes on all the things that you don't need like wants so for example uh TVs would hike in prices significantly they won't be like the $300 they are now they would be like at least $2,000 for a nice decent at just a decent flat screen TV um but still the economy is balanced and life is balanced in a way cuz most of the money doesn't go into military it doesn't go into research it goes back into the people uh but some of the money still goes into Medical research and stuff but is another thing uh with the Communist uh communist type Society with uh the Democracy it's more complicated to do that because of the way a monopolist a monopolistic uh democracy does is Monopoly monopolistic has all the taxes the fund the the hospitals and all that but you'd have to figure out a way to make enough money to fund it through Healthcare and all that here in Canada and not have to hike to healthcare like there's a bunch of ways we can try and change our our monopolist democracy into a communist democracy but I just have this feeling that no matter what way we try to do it we'll turn into a dictatorship so there's no point there's no point in trying if every road leads to a dictatorship CU it does like I've thought about it for a long [ __ ] time oh yeah right I don't live in this apartment on this account way you're still waiting for that dude like I said before at this point unplug the cockal but you'll probably be grounded okay well then go go unplug the console and tell her you want to go play catch with her tell her you need attention well go tell her you need attention Go Go say Mom Mom Mom Mom your child needs attention I want to play catch uh all right that's good ah I forgot about how [ __ ] messy I was as a kid too I mean I'm still [ __ ] sometimes I turn myart I turn my apartment into Jurassic Park sometimes [ __ ] like damn but I mean I still keep it clean though it's how it works wait what Budd but isn't isn't that why there's like a special like thing drainage thing there like right above it so it doesn't overflow although up I'm going to see if my tub has it cuz maybe not all bathtubs have it oh wait no my bathtub has the little drain thing but my sink does it so my sink can overflow and flood my house huh I guess it's not mandatory on everything that's weird because our bathtubs here there's like a metal like casing like right below the faucet and it has holes in it and it drains water into it so the bathtub doesn't overflow and it will never overflow I just did the educational stream it wasn't even me screwing around or messing around I just did an entire educational stream holy [ __ ] this is the first time I've done a stream that wasn't just jish [Music] bud I was going to suggest that to you like why don't you just make it a realm so you don't have to leave your console on all the time I mean yeah the PS5 has like water cooling in it but still it's why my PS4 sometimes I keep on I mean my PS5 I keep on for 48 hours it has water cooling in it actually speak the which yeah like my my PS5 isn't that warm it's actually pretty cool but it also could be because like it's winter but I think I'm going to hop off and watching TV I haven't watched Cable in a bit and I pay like 100 and something $130 yeah I'm going to I'm going to hop off and stream and just take a break till 11: for an hour take my hour break now that's all good I'll probably either be doing Five Nights at Freddy's or uh Roblox I really don't want to do Minecraft today I've done that too much oh my God especially with the music you listen [Music] to so it's just nostalgic yeah n o s t l i g i c I spelled the completely wrong yeah I I I I spelled it wrong I I I I spelled it wrong no I I spelled it wrong I probably did I most likely spelled it wrong my grammar sucks so when I trying to spell a word I don't actually know how to [Music] spell yeah oh my [ __ ] god [Music] holy [ __ ] no I don't I I I clearly don't know they're they're they're probably going to like one day find this stream years and years from now and they're going to hear your voice saying their names they're like hey we're mentioned in this guy's dream yeah and you know how many people who probably three people with those exact same names have probably passed that test biscuits and Bon now I want to make toast but I'm out of Booter well yeah this this motorcycle is customized oh wait I got to call in the car I purposely destroyed Morse Mutual Insurance how can we help you I'm sorry I couldn't help me uh I used to have a good pitching arm but uh nowadays I don't know like not the not even past 30 m hour I'd say like 20 20 or 10 m hour one of those holy [ __ ] [ __ ] don't make toast with an evil toaster trust me I I'll definitely listen to you evil those two cu the you name really damn hold on I got to go rob a convenience store not in real life in in in game in game I'm playing GTA I'm playing GTA I'm playing GTA I me I meant in the game it's all good what the [ __ ] this isn't a 24/7 this is a liquor Mark and it's a grocery store that I'm about to robw well [ __ ] I murdered the store attended by accident he was in the way of the blast I didn't mean to murder him he was supposed to rob the cash register for me but now I got to rob it the most stupidest thing rob a grocery store quickly put it in your bank account and I'm on a dirt bike I mean I have more Mobility over the cops than they do but I mean a I landed that properly too on the side of the the tire up at an angle oh you [ __ ] you popped the front wheel the dirt bike now it's not going to turn properly oh you suck yeah I drove off a cliff but I L I landed with the tower up and had an angle I should have landed that I shouldn't have fellen off like I did at Old zigzag tactic yeah get out of the car just get out of the car give me the car give me the car give me the car give me the car give me the car thank you oh [ __ ] there's nothing I can do there's nothing I can do there's nothing I can do oh wait [ __ ] that didn't [Applause] work wome stop ah [ __ ] he wasn't dead oops hello this is Morse Mutual Insurance I think we can handle that oh I mean at least my motorcycle getting getting pounded I was going to sell the dirt bike originally but then I remembered I could rob a corner store no I haven't done that trophy yet Rob all the quarter STS in GTA Los Santos I might do it am not I'm not customized in this car it's off the street I used to have so many cars off the street in my freaking garage before when I first started play GTA I think we all did at one point H this is my car collection right now on this account I have like two cars customized I have one bik customized but this is a birthday gift from Wolfie and then I had this dirt bike here I still need to customize I still need to put the lost and theft correction I I need to ensure it if that's insured that car is insured this car isn't insured I need to Ure it still so I'm going to go over to Los Santos customs and Ure this car now let's go down to the L later what the [ __ ] but I mean at least the lost and theft prevention is automatically installed onto it when you park it into your garage it becomes a personal vehicle hello there hi every time I even watched a video yesterday about this you got to go go to the Los Santos customs and online and you always go down the wrong back [Music] alley what Miracle did you want me to perform I just bumed my head I just let me go through my character didn't even fall off good to go I need two grand to do this look like I'm selling the dirt bike you're through to your garage you uh need me to bring you a ride it's coming at [Music] you I didn't even notice that I was tuning that out oops what's wrong with her now hey that's pretty Grand let's go 40,000 I just realized I'm pretty sure GT is real world current real world Logistics and stuff like [Music] that you calling for some Wheels I'm Johnny on the spot I'll hook you up I'll bring it to you how many GTA plus things there are there's this there specific GTA plus places there are for think is that the garage that I'm seeing oh it's this the Vinewood car club Gary leave my head alone I know you guys need food I've told you like come on wait you got to wait till tomorrow you got to wait till tomorrow my boy like I can't tell if you're doing this cuz you want attention like I don't know like you guys if you guys think you're being punished you're not my boy you you're not you guys aren't being punished at all I promise you that it's just we don't have food right now and I'm sorry we won't have food for you till tomorrow okay I mean if you want to you can eat dad and his sleep plus you guys still have a bowl here that still has a bit of food in it oh wait no you guys ate it all well that should last you guys till tomorrow then cuz that was enough food in there to last you two days so like all the cats so you guys should be fun till tomorrow but till then dad doesn't have food for you like I can make you guys some of Dad's food it's about it I have what do I have I got zoodles you guys like zoodles I'll make you [Music] zoodles I'm making you guys zoodles I know you guys need to eat I am making you zoodles I just got to rinse out your bowl first before I even put it in here I'm not going to put human many food in a dirty Bowl I don't do that for me so I won't do that to you guys it's that dog cat food and stuff in it I don't I don't eat dirty food [ __ ] out of my stuff I clean my [ __ ] before I put real food in it so if I'm giving you guys human food I'm cleaning out all the cat food out of it so you guys have a bit of human food let's give Dad some time to make it for you guys okay yes it's for the first time I'm opening a can of human food and it's for you guys it's not for me CU I can I can survive I am fine no it's still human food I still need to warm it up it is still human food I still need to warm it up so you can get all the nutrients yeah lick the can just don't cut yourself while look in the can cuz you do that all the [ __ ] time [Music] Pearl now you guys got to wait 2 minutes before you even get to eat just don't get your head stuck in the can like you also do Pearl Pearl Blazer are bad for that they get their heads stuck in cans all the time [Music] for [Music] excuse me here you guys go go e Misty eat I'm only doing this because I don't have cat food for you guys right now all of you go eat Misty come here my girl you can eat too this is for you guys if I bring you to it it means it's for you it is for you not for me for you yeah I just gave my cat some zoodles they're going to have crazy shits for like a week what a um I'm be ending stream taking my hour break soon or a 2our break actually cuz I'm going to take a little nap as well I'm a bit tired so I'm going to take a little nap as well while I watch TV I'm just going to quickly do this get the prevention on this and then what brings you in today as uh as go take a nap but all the power the power just customizing the birthday present of it for here we go hi Gary see you making a special appearance there okay I customized the bite a bit to the colors I wanted but other than that it's still the same as Wolfie where Wolfie got brought it to me Gary you guys have [Music] food [Music] hey I could have been lazy returned it that' be because this is a present from Wolfie I wanted to show them how much I appreciate it so I drove it all the way back all yes my boy okay I can't tell if it's attention you want or you're just upset that that's not the food you wanted ah it's attention see Gary always gives me a sign when he wants attention he doesn't but you'll be getting attention cuz that's ending stream so I'm ending stream now uh I'll see you guys like to an hour or two uh as always stay safe stay positive most importantly stay stay happy and enjoy life you only live once and if you believe in reincarnation like I do you still got to die before you give life another try so as always it's your boy green ghost out peace | GREENGHOST | UC86110QKDs8GAYNMJfc5Urw | 2024-04-07 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 4,751 |

H5XgbKuk0j8 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H5XgbKuk0j8 | Roe Deer Hunting in Sweden with Kristy Titus | beauty surrounds sweden's breathtaking landscapes from architecture that's rich with history to the lush green countryside in vast burial forests which are part of the baltic sea archipelago wildlife like the roe deer that call this home are flourishing and the diversity found here offers hunters like myself an opportunity for a trip of a lifetime and hunting experience [Music] traveling to sweden to hunt with my favorite person yogi from j.r hunting was the perfect welcome to this incredible country so [Music] [Applause] [Music] yugi and i are out checking cameras doing some repair work we got the trailer and um so far in this field there's a good road here buck and some pigs and he was going to try to fix this let's see there's nothing that builds more excitement for a hunt than scouting my first trip to sweden over the summer time allowed me the opportunity to get to know the landscapes and plan with yogi a strategy for our upcoming road deer hunts here is a road earbuck going to it head down let me just be clear what yogi is realizing is that i'm not a carpenter we're done working on the tree house get such a beautiful view i call it a tree house it's beautiful so rude all she did was stand next to me and left our summer scouting paid off and we set our sights on two bucks both for very different reasons the first is a massive buckness prime and the peak of his potential the second is an old buck deemed a killer buck for the goring potential of his antlers and while i leave for a quick trip home to the states yogi is keeping a close eye on these two bucks it's our first night hunting over here in sweden and the weather sucks it's not going as planned this episode is going to be completely different than normal episodes because we are filming it yes there's no professionals doing it it's just us so don't have high expectations people we had originally planned to film this hunt prior to the kovid 19 pandemic however due to travel restrictions yogi and i are on our own with a storm rolling through overnight the morning brings with it a much welcomed bright blue bird sky and buck showing off full of red [Music] buck activity it's definitely him but he's still about 300 yards away i'd like to try to get a little closer this grass is too tall like when i look through my scope it's just not it's not good i don't have a good angle and i want to make sure i get a nice clear shot wind is absolutely perfect [Music] okay [Music] i just shot this buck and his domes are on here on the edge of the field it's still feeding um he went straight down but i obviously want to be cautious when i approach them grab our sticks and head over here the grass is so tall that once those deer put their head down you really can't hardly see them so just work slowly and try to try to find them wow my first rodeo they're so tiny it's a beautiful buck look at how his um he has no gap in between here they're like touching it's perfect i don't think i've ever been so nervous we have put yogi has been watching this deer all summer and we hung stands this summer we've done so much work and he's done so much work i can't believe it i think i was more nervous on this hunt because i didn't want to mess it up for yogi because i know how hard he's worked on it like i didn't i just wanted it to be perfect and it's perfect now we get to set our sights on relocating the killer buck for yogi the camera set up here and the other week i was out there calling and this big old killer buck we call him came outta the timber here straight out there so i put a camera here now and we'll see if there's any pictures of them on that camera so in the young ones all right pigs there he is that's him perfect so he does frequent this area 24th of august but we're definitely gonna sit up sit up on the hill there and see if we can find him again tonight [Music] last time i saw this pack um he was on a tri-camera picture about 150 yards from here down and that piece of bush over there he also was in this area the time before i saw him i called him out of the timber down there he came out of that same trail where that camera is sitting and he's living around here definitely [Music] [Applause] for me one of the best parts about this entire hunt was yogi's reaction after shooting the killer buck as a guide and outfitter he rarely has the opportunity to go hunting for himself making this hunt success so special [Applause] [Music] and this is what we call it a killer buck because when they fight normally the front forks of the two bucks would lock in but with him not having that he will gore any other buck that he's finding and to make this trip truly the hunt of a lifetime together there in the swedish countryside we committed to living the rest of our lives together with many more adventures to come [Music] | Pursue The Wild with

IBgkKX6DUTM | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IBgkKX6DUTM | CS162 Lecture 15: Memory 3: Caching and TLBs (Con't), Demand Paging | hello everybody welcome back to uh cs 162. we are um going to pick up where we left off and uh that is uh talking about caching just to remind you a little bit uh from 61c and before we get there though we've been talking a lot about virtual memory and one of the things i wanted to show you was what i like to call the magic two-level page table which is uh works when you have 32-bit address space 4 byte pte's page table entries then you can do this 10 10 12 pattern you have the root of the page table pointing at the root page and then the first 10 bits basically select one of a thousand 24 entries and uh then that points to the second level page table the next uh 10 bits point to an entry there one of 1024 entries and then finally we point to the actual page and of course on a context switch you have to save this page table pointer and that's it because the rest of this is in memory uh and there's valid bits on the page table entries so you can in fact page out parts of the page table if you don't need it and so you can basically just set uh an invalid bit in the top level page table entry and then you can page out the second level all right were there any questions on this so this works particularly well when you have 12-bit offset which is 4096 byte pages you have uh and four byte page table entries okay good now by the way there was a little question on uh piazza about paging out the page table or putting it in virtual memory i'll say a little bit about that later but i do want to point out that the nice thing about this particular layout this is all done in physical space physical addresses are actually in the page table in this case you still can page out part of the page table so it's pretty close to being like virtual memory except that the actual addresses are physical ones so the other thing we were talking about was we talked about the uh transit uh translation look aside buffer tlb and we've talked about it as looking like a cache and so when you get a virtual address coming out of the cpu we quickly look up in the tlb to see whether uh that virtual address has been cached and if the answer is yes then we can go right on to physical memory and by the way this physical memory here uh can be a combination of cache and dram or whatever and uh this can be very fast it can be at the speed of the cache for instance on the other hand if the tlb doesn't have our virtual address in it then we have to go and translate through the mmu which usually involves walking the page table once we get the result back we put that in the tlb and then we continue with our actual access and subsequent ones assuming we haven't kicked that address out of the tlb will be fast and of course the cpu in when you're in kernel mode can basically go around the tlb to uh look at things in in the physical pages okay and of course the question is does there exist any page locality that could make this work because the only reason the tlb would work as a cache on addresses is if there was an actual locality and basically what i said here was well instructions clearly have page locality stack accesses have locality and so really it's a question of the data accesses which also have locality so in many cases they don't have as good a locality as the instruction in stack but it's pretty good okay and can we have a hierarchy of tlbs yes so if you remember from 61c you could have a two level cache a first and second level so you can also have a two level tlb okay and i'll say a little bit more about that later so what we're going to do now in the early part of the lecture is i want to remind you a bit more about caching and and then we'll talk about tlbs and then eventually uh maybe about halfway through the lecture then we'll change to uh how we actually use the tlbs and page table entries to get uh demand paging and a few other really interesting aspects of the the memory system so we uh at the very end of the lecture last time we were starting to remind you of sources of cash misses and uh i like to put these down i call these the the three c's plus one because mark hill uh when he was a graduate student here came up with these three c's representing the source of cash misses and he went on to be a very well-known computer architect faculty member in university madison wisconsin but um the three c's that he came up with in his phd thesis were compulsory capacity and conflict a compulsory miss is one that basically has uh represents an address that's never been seen before and so there's no way the cash could have had it in there because it's never been accessed the only way getting around a compulsory or cold mist sometimes it's called is basically if you have some sort of prefetching mechanism that can predict in advance then you could possibly get around compulsory misses the other two capacity and conflict are uh more interesting so the capacity miss basically is a miss that occurs because the cache is just not big enough so you put your uh your data into the cache the cache is giving you very fast access for a little while and then eventually you try to put too many other things in there and you kick something out and so when you miss again that's going to call the capacity miss because the cache is too small now that's a little different from a conflict miss uh and a conflict miss is a situation where it's not that the cash was too small but that uh the places the slots and the cash that you're allowed to put something were too few and so you put something in the cache and you're happily using it but then you put another couple of things that were in the same slot and i'll show you that in a moment um just to remind you again and it kicked it out and then when you go back and miss again it's a conflict miss okay and of course um the the plus one portion of this is coherence miss this was not talked about mark hill's thesis but um i like to put this down just to remind you that this is another source of miss where if you have a multi-core let's say with two processors two two cores one of them loads something in the cache and it's reading it the other one goes to write that item the only way to keep the cache actually coherent is for an invalidation to kick it out of the first cache so that it can be written cleanly in the second one and at that point when the first processor looks again it's a miss and that's a coherence miss all right so um do we have any uh questions on this okay these are all reminding everybody of 61c i hope so um now when we're using a cache this sort of generic uh way of looking at addresses is the way that uh we often like to think of it so this full width uh from left to right is the number of bits of an address so for instance in a 32-bit processor this might be 32 bits the bottom portion let's say five bits represents an offset inside a cash block okay and so once you basically store things in the cash at a minimum size maybe 32 bytes or in a modern processor can be 128 or 256 bytes that all of those bytes are pulled in at once or kicked out at once and so the block offset really just says well once i found a block in the cache where do i access it from the next two fields the index and the tag are somewhat more interesting so if you imagine the bottom part is within a block then the the top two pieces are about finding the block for you the index basically is uh selects the set and then the tag sort of says well within this set of possible cache entries let's see which one might match the one i'm looking for okay so the block is the minimum quanta of caching it's the minimum thing that goes in and out think of that as for instance 32 bits excuse me 32 bytes or 128 bytes and many applications don't really have um the data select field in them because actually this is sort of the whole quanta goes back and forth but if you look at a processor accessing a single byte then you need the offset the index is used to look up things in the in the cache and identifies what we'll call the set for you that are remembering and then the tag is used to show you the actual copy so um let me give you this in figures because that's always easier here so let's look at the first things called a direct mapped cache and a direct map cache is a two to the n byte cache uh for instance where the upper the uppermost 32 minus n bits are the cache tag okay and the lowest m bits are the byte select so let's take a look at this so here's an example where we have a one kilobyte direct map cache with 32 byte blocks okay so if the blocks have 32 bytes in them we know that there are 32 entries how many bits do we need to uh represent 32 entries quick do your log base 2 everybody five very good so um here's the layout of a direct map cache so what i'm going to do is my cache data has room for 32 bytes uh it has room for a tag and it has room for a valid bit and there are some number of these okay and what we do is we take this address which has five bits as was mentioned by folks on the chat okay and uh the cash index is uh going to be used to look up in the cache and then we're going to match the tag so the first thing we do is we take the index and in this case there's five bits of index and so that's going to select one of 32 cache lines and um then once we've picked a target cache line then we'll check and see the tag match or not and if the tag matches then we know we're good to go and at that point we can actually say well this cache line is valid so i'm now going to use the byte select to pick which of the 32 bytes and i'm good to go okay and notice that there's only one slot here uh to put in the cash for something that has this index okay so that's why it's called a direct mapped cash because you give an index that only gives you one possible cash line and then that cash line or cash block is then a single tag is matched okay does that remind everybody about how this works okay so now let's go a little further on this unless there are questions okay this is pretty straightforward and again again the reason it's direct mapped is there's only one full cache line that comes out of the cache index so here's a set associative cache where we do oh and the other thing i want to say about this is notice that we have five bits in the byte select and five bits in the cache index so that's a total of ten bits which is 2 to the 10th is 1024 which you all have memorized uh quite well now and that's a one kilobyte cache so our cache total if you add all this up there's 1024 bytes in there and that's because there's 10 bits that are selecting it okay now let's go to a set associative cache where in general we could have n-way i'm going to show you two and i'm going to make the same size cache total but i'm going to do this as a two-way set associative so we're always going to have in this set of examples five bits down below but now instead of five bit index we're going to have four bits and the reason for that is we have two separate banks of cash and so that index actually selects two different cache blocks one from the left bank and one from the right bank and then once we've got it now we got to compare the tag with two different tags and so that'll say which of these two lines that are in the cache represent what i'm looking for okay so this index now is selecting two things i check the tag on both sides as a little comparator and assuming things are valid that's why i'm checking the valid bit then if i match i get a one out of here that selects for the mux and so in this example um the left one matches the tag the right one didn't and i get data out okay so that's a two way set associative cache two ways uh set associative because we have a set that's got basically it's not direct mount okay questions good reminding everybody of 61c i hope oh yes you have enough questions so go ahead type questions into the chat please oh okay thanks so um go ahead okay so why we call this the cache tag the cache tag is basically all the other bits okay it's basically everything that is uh not the byte select or not the offset and the cache index the rest of that's the tag and you need to check that the tag matches because that's how you know that this block is the one you're looking for as opposed to representing some other part of memory okay and so this tag will be big it's going to be basically everything else and the tag is not in the data it's it's separate from the data you could think of this as metadata on the cache okay we good on that everybody so now um well we could do this uh arbitrarily where we keep shrinking the index and we have more and more banks until we basically have zero bits in the index okay and that's called fully associative it looks kind of like this okay so um here we have uh 32 places that in the cache 32 blocks just like we did before but they all have a tag and they're all checked in parallel so notice we take the tag which now is 27 bits because we totally eliminated the index and we compare with all of the tags and we pick one and that's the one that's going to select for us which cache line is valid okay and so think of this as the extreme case of a uh set associative cache where we completely get rid of or we we have one complete set which is basically the whole cache okay now can anybody tell me uh which one of these associativities either direct mapped two-way set associative or fully associative is faster and why okay i'm seeing a bunch of people saying the direct mapped is faster but look it's getting all of these hashtags in parallel why is that not faster by the way you're right direct mapped is faster does anybody know why direct mapped is faster okay so now i'm seeing some folks are kind of on the right point here but it's there you go last person got it here it takes a long time to propagate so you got to think like hardware not like software so first of all what you see here on the screen here the fact that we're checking all the tags doesn't take extra time because it's all happening in parallel okay so you gotta you know the cool thing about hardware and you know i'm a hardware architect so i think it's cool but is we're not we don't have to do this serially one at a time we're doing all this in parallel so you might think off the bat that the fully associative was faster but in fact what i didn't show you on the screen is once i've done a match then i have to take this data and i have to um select from it uh in parallel based on the matching of the tags and so i'm selecting sort of one cache line out of 32 which is slower because it's multiple levels then this other case which i'm selecting one of two which is yet again slower than the direct mapped case where i don't have to do any selecting at all so direct mapped is actually faster in hardware okay and the other thing i will point out is that fully associative because it's so much bigger we're checking all of those uh tags in parallel actually takes up more space on the chip and as a result there's speed of light issues and so it takes a little longer for the signals to get around and so the fully associative is actually slower as well because it's bigger okay so propagation speed uh and size of things on the chip actually can matter when you're thinking about hardware so the thing to keep in mind is direct mapped is faster but notice there's something interesting about the direct map cache i there's a whole bunch of possible addresses okay that will all map on top of the same line here in fact anything that has the same index basically all of the well how big is this this is got well we took out 10 bits it's got 20 bits so there's a million addresses that all fit in the same place in the cache and so if i access any of them that's called a conflict miss so when we were looking earlier about conflicts i get a lot more conflicts with the direct mapped because there's only one place that i can place those million cash lines that have the same index whereas in the two-way there's two places i can place it so that's less conflicts and then finally in the fully associative there is i can put it anywhere and so there's basically no conflict misses in the fully associated okay good so hopefully that's helpful so now even though fully associative is slower it will have less conflicts in it and so when you start thinking about tlbs we may want to make that decision if the result of a conflict miss requires a miss which is really expensive i might be more have more tendency to want to go to fully associative to avoid misses even though it's a little slower and you might start thinking a little bit about whether a tlb would make sense to be fully associative because the result of missing is going to be going and walking the page table which could be very slow so where does a block get placed in the cache okay this is going to show you those three options here pretty clearly so suppose we have a 32 block uh address space here um and this particular entry is uh one that's going to map a bunch of different addresses so if it's direct mapped then block 12 basically can go only in one place uh this is the address space here's the cache i've got eight entries there's only one place for block 12 to go that's 12 mod 8 is exactly there if i have two-way set associative there's four sets so there's two places that block 12 can go and in a fully asses associative cache there's eight places that block 12 can go okay so this is another way to look if i have the same size cache physically the the associativity this is a direct mapped two-way set associated fully associative the associativity says something about what i have flexibility to put an item from the memory space up top here into the cache okay good hopefully this is all similar to everybody so what do you replace on a miss so if you're gonna um load something new into the cache and you've got to kick something else out of the cache well with direct map there's only one place you can load right so in this case if i now go to something else like uh address 20 and i try to load it here in the direct map cache there's only one choice of which one to kick out it'll be this one so that's easy but if i get to two-way set associative now i gotta pick one i could pick either of the them or in fully associative i have to pick one okay and that's called the replacement policy and so direct map there's only one chance for said associative or fully associative there's lots of options excuse me random least recently used et cetera so um what you can see is that for a cache oftentimes the difference between random and lru is very little especially when you get a larger cache and so random works pretty well for cash is when you get a lot of us when you have a higher associativity and bigger cashes and so the cost of remaining of keeping track of what the lru is is often not worth it in a cache that's not going to be the case when we get to page tables in a moment in paging okay the other question is what do you do on a right so we have two options one is right through and one is right back so in the case of right through when i go and i'm writing data from the cpu i write it into the cache and into the dram so it's writing through the cache to the dram okay that is good because it makes sure the cache has always got the most up-to-date data it's bad because it's slower so the speed of writing through to the memory is uh is going to be as slow as the dram than is then as slow as the cache right or as fast as the cache the case of write back i actually just put the data in the cache and i keep tracking the fact that it's dirty or written and then i have to make sure so that's very fast but now i have to make sure that when i kick it out of the cache because i'm replacing with something else i'm writing it back to dram or i'm going to lose my data okay so pros i've write through is read misses can't result in writes because the data is always up to date in the cache and you don't have to save it cons is the processor rights are slower right back the pros are repeated rights are not said to dram and rights are fast the cons is a little more complex to handle and so the difference between right through and right back they're used in different places so oftentimes for instance right through might show up at the first level cash but right back is the second and third level cashes um because that cost they're going all the way through can be very expensive okay good now there was an interesting issue that came up on piazza after last lecture and so i figured i made a new slide uh to represent this just to show you i i'm going to tell you something and i at the risk of confusing people i don't want to do that but there is a difference between what's called a physically indexed cash and a virtually indexed cash and so here's what we've been talking about this is a physically indexed cash so what does that mean that means what comes out of the cpu is a virtual address it goes to the tlb and assuming the tlb matches we combine the offset oops with the physical uh page frame and we go directly to the cache and we've basically got we look up in the cache and it's physically indexed so what that means is the addresses we hand to the cache are physical if the tlb misses well we go to the page table just like i showed you that multi-level page table at the beginning of the lecture we go to the page table and what happens there is um it walks the page table but those all of the addresses in the page table including the top level uh is cr3 is basically physical addresses and so we can uh when we look in the page table we're just going through the cache just because we we do it just works that way right because everything's physical and the cache memory mechanism of caching dram in in the cache that's all handled by hardware and so nothing has to worry about that so this is a very simple organization and by the way it's the one that the x86 uses and it's the one that we talk about in class most okay the other big advantage to this which i'll you'll see what i mean in a moment is that every piece of physical data which means something that has a location in memory has only one location in the cache okay that's a physically indexed because the cache really is just a portal onto the memory there's nothing special there okay and so when we contact switch we don't have to do anything special with the cache we might have to do something with the tlb which we'll talk about in a moment but we don't have to mess with the cache okay challenge to this as you can see here though is that assuming that we've made our cache really fast maybe we have three levels of cache and it's you know carefully tuned into the processor pipeline and all that sort of stuff to make it fast the problem is that we have to take the cpu virtual address pipe it through a tlb before we can even look at the cache and so this tlb needs to be really fast okay the other option which came up in piazza was this idea of a virtual cache okay the this is uh more common in uh higher end servers that aren't made out x86 processors i would say this is less common these days um but you take the cpu and the first thing you do is you just look up in the cache okay and that looking up in the cache since the cache has virtual addresses to the index is just fast you just put the virtual address in there you either get it or you don't if you miss then you got to do something when you miss then you got to look up on the tlb and notice that i intentionally put the cache and the tlb kind of uh on top of each other because you can actually be looking up in the tlb at the same time you're checking in the cache so you can overlap that and then we look up in the tlb and assuming that the tlb hits then we can just go to memory find the physical data and put it back in the cache these uh these arrows are all for addresses which i don't have a reason i don't have a data arrow coming back and then we're good to go if we miss in the tlb then we got to do something and if we want the same advantage of caching the page tables then we can have the page tables made of virtual addresses and then we do a recursive walk of the page table by looking up virtual addresses which may in turn cause tlb misses uh which cause page table walks and the key there is you got to be careful so that ultimately the root tlb pages are pinned in a way that this uh finishes okay and and uh so that's a little more complexity there okay so the challenges of the virtually indexed casts well first of all the benefit is this can be blazingly fast because there's no tlb lookup between the cpu and the cache the challenge though is that if you think through this a little bit you'll see that the same data in memory can be in multiple places in the cache because remember every process has its own notion of zero for instance i've said that several times this term and therefore if two processes are mapping to the same memory then they'll actually they'll be in different virtual address spaces and that could be messy okay and in fact what you need to do with this cache layout is when you switch from one process to another you actually have to uh flush the cache okay and that that instance where you might and that instance where you might have the same data in multiple parts of the cache is when you actually tag the cache with process ids we won't go into that here but now you've got aliases where the same data can be simultaneously in different parts of the cache and that can lead to all sorts of consistency problems all right so i just wanted to make sure everybody saw these two if uh if that was too much information we're going to stick with the top one i might who knows i might actually ask you a question about this lower one but for the rest of the lectures we're going to be mostly talking about this physically indexed one up here it's uh it's popular because of its simplicity but we need to figure out how to make the tlb fast okay so why is the page table virtually addressed here well just because if we want to cache the page table which we do we because remember we're pa we're walking through a bunch of memory we don't want to go as slow as dram so we want to be in the cache but to be in the cache that means a page table has to have virtual addresses in it rather than physical addresses like the ones we've been talking about okay and that because that's the only way that we can come back through the main cache okay now we could pull some other tricks where we have a separate cache just for the page table or we have a separate pipeline that tries to make accessing dram faster than otherwise but the simplest idea here is to make this virtually addressed okay and it's actually not so crazy and it's done by definitely some server machines the trickiest part about this is not what we just said there the trickiest part here is the aliasing uh of the cache and that's kind of it gets messy quickly okay so the top cache doesn't have to be invalidated on a process switch because this cache up here is purely just a portal into the underlying memory and so one one location one memory location one location the cache one location the memory um there's never multiple cache locations that go to memory all right that's another reason this is a simpler organization we do need to do something about the tlb though we'll have to come up with that in a moment so adventist trivia as we discussed uh in the chat before um before lecture a little bit uh it does seem like midterms keep coming and i'm sure you're getting them in all your other classes too but yep we're coming up on midterm two uh on thursday at 10 29 and topics are basically everything up to lecture 17. i've listed a bunch of them here if you know basically it's just everything up to lecture 17 there has been a discussion um in piazza about whether these exams are cumulative or not the answer is we focus on the new material but don't forget everything you learn the first third of the class because you never know we might um you know ask you something that meant you had to remember how to synchronize or something like that so don't forget everything you learned but most of the material will be focused on these new lectures the other thing is we're going to require your zoom proctoring to be set up and so um i think what we're going to be doing is generating your zoom rooms for you but make sure you got your camera and your microphones and your audio all set up in advance because we're actually going to be uh requiring that um during the exam all right um there's a review session on the 27th tuesday and um there is a zoom room just like the last one uh neil will put it out he's got all the information for it i don't know that we have yet but we will soon um i you know i guess it was a silent announcement a while back but i do actually have office hours these days from two to three monday to wednesday there's a there's a zoom link that's posted both on the course schedule and i think i have a piazza pin piazza statement about that but um definitely feel free to come by and chat about computer architecture or life the universe and everything or quantum computing or whatever you like probably don't want to come with questions about detailed code aspects of your projects you should stick with your ta office hours on that because this is more for general discussions and interesting questions and and if you do want to come with whatever questions you have and if you want to set up something private with me as well we can do that all right and then i put the best for last the election's coming up please don't forget to vote if you have the ability to vote uh this is the one of the most important things you can have as a u.s citizen and uh take advantage of it you know what whatever you vote is is fine um but uh today is actually the last uh day to register if you haven't done that uh so you do need to do that thanks for pointing that out and um be safe when you uh when you go if you go in person or fill out your forms and and mail them just don't put them in a fake ballot box make sure that somebody like the post office actually gets it and what's cool in california is you can sign up uh and you'll get texts all as your vote works its way through the system which is also pretty cool you know post office since we received it and then the state administration says that you know we've got it it's ready to be counted and so on so you get to find out about that okay all righty please vote so let's go back to some questions now and i'm going to be talking physically index caches again so here's our here's our schematic of what that looks like and uh we got cpu going to tlb going to cash going to memory and the question is kind of what tlb organization makes sense here um clearly the tlb needs to be really fast because it's in the critical path between the cpu and the first level cache okay so this is uh this needs to be really fast this seems to argue for direct mapped or really low associativity in order to make that fast now you have to have very few conflicts though because every time you miss in the tlb you have to walk the page table which even if the page table's cached could be you know four or eight memory references just to do a single reference so you don't want to miss in the tlb when you can which means you want as few conflicts which pushes your associativity up and so there is this trade-off between the uh the cost of a conflict is a high missed time um but the hit time is is slow if it's too too associative and so there's a lot of tricks that are played to make the tlb fast and this is kind of a 152 topic but i thought i would say a little bit about this and the other thing is we got to be careful kind of in the tlb you know what do we use as an index in the tlb you know if we use the lower order bits of a page as an index in a lower associativity tlb then you can end up with some thrashing um and that could be a problem if you use the high order bits you'll end up with a situation where big parts of the cache are never used so uh you know you got to be a little bit careful about this the tlb is mostly a fully associative cache although these days i'll show you in a second these days for instance the x86 has something like a 12-way set associative first level and then it's backed by a large second level so um so how big does it actually have to be so it's usually pretty small and that's basically for performance reasons uh 128 512 entries are pretty standard one of the reasons that there are more entries these days than there were say 10 or 15 years ago is that people use a lot of address spaces including micro kernels which tend to have a lot of address spaces and so there's a lot of tlb entries you might need the other problem is as your dram and your overall memory get really large then there's going to be a lot of pages involved and so you need more tlb entries so that combination of a lot of different address spaces and a lot of memory kind of pushed the tlb up and uh that's why in fact the modern systems tend to have a two level tlb which is a slightly smaller one at the top level and a much bigger second level one to try to make things as fast as possible small tlbs often organized even as a fully associative cache this is often called a tlb slice where you have a little tiny tlb that's direct mapped at the top level and then you have a second level that's a little bit uh much much bigger if fully associative is too slow then you do this two-way set associative called a slice here's an example of what might be in the tlb it's a it's a fully associative lookup for instance for the mips are 3000 that's very old processor but it's easy to look at here you might have a virtual address you know a physical address and then some bits for lookup and the trick is the virtual address comes in you associate fully associatively look it up to find that tag and then you get the rest of this represents the match and the tlb the thing i wanted to show you about the r3000 is the r3000 handled the question of how to deal with a fast tlb in an interesting way that was kind of possible back in the old days which is basically you need a tlb both for the instructions and for the data and what they did was they arranged the tlb lookup was a half of a cycle and so although you in 61c learned about a five stage pipeline with you know fetch to code execute memory and write back here are the actual cycles up top and if you notice what really happens is the first half of the instruction fetch cycle is actually a tlb lookup then there's a whole cycle that overlaps the last half of instruction fetch in the first half of the code for the icash lookup okay in the case of the data tlb what happens is the address is computed in the first half of the execution cycle and then the deal the tlb lookups in the second half okay and so they were able to confine the speed of the tlb to half a cycle and be able to deal with that by rearranging things in the pipeline a little bit but in general that's uh much harder to do these days and there are many more pipeline stages as i'm sure you learned so the thing to ask yourself is if we're going to go with a physically mapped cache and we're going to um not be able to split cycles that way then what are we going to do and really as we've described this we're taking the um offset and copying it down of course but then we're taking the virtual page number looking it up in the tlb and then copying the physical page number into the final address and the question is how do we make this faster in general and the answer is well one trick is take a look at this i'm showing you the virtual address and the physical address okay and that physical address i'm showing you is actually split up into a combination of the tag and the index and the byte remember we just showed you that and the virtual address is the virtual page number in the offset and if you can arrange that the offset overlaps the index and the byte in the cache then you're golden because this index this offset doesn't get translated by the tlb so you can pipe this offset into the cache and immediately start looking up the index while you're looking up in the tlb so you're overlapping the cash access and the tlb even though logically you have to do the tlb uh lookup before you do the cash access okay so this is the example of the tricks here's a picture of that so in fact when you take um this is with two byte uh with uh four byte pages but if you uh take a look excuse me four byte cache lines 4k cache uh 4k pages what you see here is we take the page number we start looking it up in the tlb and meanwhile we uh use the 10 bit index to look up in the cache thereby giving us a two a four byte cache line okay and you can rearrange this any way you like but so we can basically then get out of that cache we can get our tag and out of the tlb we get the tag which is now the physical page number we can compare the two and we can look at this kind of after we've done both cache access and tlb so there's there's how that parallel thing works isn't that cool uh galaxy brained as it says on the chat yes now if things are 8k in this organization this is a little tricky um but there's all sorts of tricks that people do in fact they might divide the 8k cash into two banks so if you lower the association or if you raise the associativity the two-way is set associative this still works right there are other things you can do you can pull tricks where you look up uh part of the cache access and you finish the rest of it later and there's all sorts of stuff okay now uh the other option of course is if you really want a really big cache and you're running into this problem then you might actually go back to your virtual cache in fact intel has managed to do this very well with all sorts of tricks in how to make the tlb work fast okay good so here's the actual um previous generation processor that's pretty cool if you look at the front end instruction fetch and the back end data what you'll see here is here's the data tlb here's the instruction tlb and these are first level caches as tlbs that are basically backed by the second level tlb cache so when you miss in the first level tlb you first look in the second level and it's only when you miss in the second level which is by the way much bigger that then you do your table walk okay and so this is a way to make that faster and so that particular processor for instance here's an example where the l1 icash is 32 kilobytes the data the l1 data cache this is level one is 32 kilobytes second level is combined megabyte uh third level cache is actually 1.37 megabytes per core and oftentimes you get like 50 58 cores or whatever you can get a lot of cores in these particular chips and so the tlb just to finish out what we've got the level one instruction tlb is 128 entries eight way set associative the level uh one data tlb is 64 entries four-way set associative and all of this is backed by the second level shared uh stlb which is uh 15 136 entries 12 ways associative and so you can see how they pull all sorts of tricks to meet their pipeline timings and thereby basically keep a direct mapped excuse me thereby keep a um a physically page indexed cache which is much simpler than dealing with the virtual one okay a core in this way in this case by the way is a combination of a processor and a slice of the third level cache and some cache consistency hardware and some bit of networking that's often called a core and then the processor core is the small piece of that and then together those are all put together on a chip to get um multiple processors okay so you can either think of a core as a processor or a processor plus some extra stuff that's associated with that processor okay and this by the way is the processor portion of a core there's a whole bunch of other stuff as well so what happens on a context switch in general you got to do something so assuming for a moment that we have physically addressed caches we don't have to mess with the cache so that's cool but the tlb still has to do something and the reason for that is really that we just changed the address space from one process to another and so all those tlb entries are no longer valid okay because gee that for process a it mapped zero to um a particular part of the address space and um you know you switch to b and now zero gets uh mapped to a different physical part of the physical space and so we gotta do something we have a couple of options one is you can flush out all of the tlb uh with special flush instructions as soon as you contact switch a lot of early processors and by early i mean as early as seven years ago you had to do this so every contact switch you actually had to flush the tlb out and you can see now why a process switch from one process to another might be actually expensive because you're flushing a bunch of stuff now more modern processors which intel has made much more common these days actually have a process id in the tlb and so when you switch from one process to another and you switch an id register in the processor then it knows automatically to ignore the old entries of the tlb from the other process and put new ones in there and by the way when you switch back to process a from process b it's quite possible that a lot of the tlb entries are still there so this is a much better sharing of tlb amongst multiple processors and it has the advantage you don't have to flush the tlb out when you go from a contact switch okay now if the translation tables themselves change which basically means the uh you know page table changes then you gotta do something okay and uh in that case you really gotta invalidate the tlb entries and i'll show you more about that in a moment and that's because the tlb is a cache on the page table and if the page table gets changed in software you've got to do something about the tlb which is still in hardware and this is typically called tlb consistency all right and of course with a virtually indexed cache you also have to flush the cache or you have to have process ids in the cache okay so that's also potentially tricky all right now i'm going to show you this in a second so um let's look at this particular example i'm going to show you here and uh there's question in the chat about the difference between the uh tlb and the page table and hopefully this will help a little bit so the tlb is a cache now on the page table but if you look here let's put everything together so our virtual address uh has and this is going to be that magic 1010 12 layout so our virtual address has this piece in red is the virtual page number it's going to have two pieces to it the offset is of course going to get copied to an offset in the physical address so this is the easiest part of translating from a virtual to a physical address so uh always remember that okay that's a way to get yourself some points right so um now let's look at what happens here so physical memory is over uh in the the mint green on the right there so we have a page table pointer pointing at the first level page table we take the index um that lets us get a page table entry that page table entry is going to include a physical pointer to a next level page table and so then we're going to get use that to look up the physical page number okay and now that's our physical address so what are we going to do with that physical address well the physical page number is actually pointing at a page which is for instance if this is 12 bits uh this is going to be four kilobytes in size and then um the offset will pick a chunk inside the page and that'll be the thing that we're accessing so i hope that everybody kind of sees the analogy here right off the bat between paging and caching right because remember in the case of a cache uh we looked up the cache line this light blue thing and then we had the offset to look up the dark blue thing this is almost identical idea except that these offsets are bigger than a typical cache line okay and we're going to bring the cache into this in a moment just everything in one figure right so now this was all fine and dandy okay except that we had to walk our way through this page table which is uh expensive so now this in uh the question that was in the chat is what's the difference between the tlb and the page table this is the page table and to access the page table i have to do this lookup this is a tree of tables and i have to do multi-level lookup to get this physical page number which we do not want to do okay um oh yeah and so the question here here is how much uh of this offset will we use that depends on the loader story you're doing so it could be it could be 32 bits it could be 64 bits it could be a byte uh you know it could be any number of things that's going to depend on um it's going to depend on what we're doing now we're going to get to the cache in a moment in which case we might pull a chunk of this into the cache uh in that case it's going to be a cache line chunk okay all right so let's hold off for a second i'm worrying about buffering so this is the page table but this is too slow because just to do a load we had to go through multiple uh lookups in a page table and this can be four to eight levels so that's not good so i'm graying this out so now we want to get from this virtual address to this physical address quickly how do we do that we put a tlb so what we're going to do is we're going to remember this translation okay down here in the tlb where we actually take the virtual address this red thing and we put that as the as the tag and say a fully associative cache and this yellow thing is going to be the physical page and now uh we've just sort short-circuited the multiple memory accesses by just taking the virtual address quickly looking it up in a think of this as a hash table if you want a fully associative lookup that gave us our physical page and we're quick okay now so hopefully this shows you the tlb is a cache on this more complicated page table lookup but this doesn't show us the actual cache itself which is the data cache so this is the tlb which is a cache the real cache though the data cache is this one and remember this we talked about at the beginning of the lecture so here how are we going to look up the data in the cache itself well this is the physical address that's been translated but that physical address can be divided up into tag index byte everybody remembers that from the beginning of the lecture right this is 61c and so that index would be used to select a cache line the tag will be checked and assuming that matches the byte index will then decide which part of that cache line we want okay and so in that instance in a prior access we've taken a cache line block out of physical memory here put it into the cache and now we go ahead and do the actual access uh out of the cache all right so notice there are two caches here it's their tlb and the regular data cache so i want to pause just long enough to make sure everybody has absorbed that so the dark blue on the right here actually corresponds to i guess you could say it corresponds to either this dark blue piece here if i'm looking at only a little tiny bit of this physical memory or you could say maybe it corresponds to this whole cache line but actually if you look at this offset as being down to the bite and there's a particular bite here then this could this bite the dark blue piece could be the same as this dark blue piece okay so during a contact switch where do we flush the tlb2 um outer space it goes into the bit buckets and little ones and zeros go draining out the the uh the waste bucket in the back of your computer now uh basically when you flush the tlb you just throw things out here because uh if you look if you think about this thing in the tlb let me back this up a little bit here if you look at this this cache is is in some sense a read-only cache on top of the page table so you can throw out the whole tlb at any time and you can always be correct because there's no up-to-date information the tlb except except when we start talking about the clock algorithm there are things like the use bit and the dirty bit that do have to be maintained to some extent okay all right now where are we storing the tag plus index part this isn't stored what this is is this is just a reinterpretation i take these 32 bits and i mentally divide them up into these three pieces so i can do my cache access all right are we good okay so i thought i'd throw that all together so you saw it all in one place good now let's move up a level so we've been talking about the page table translating from virtual to physical but we haven't talked about what happens when there isn't a translation okay what does that mean that means that one of there isn't actually an entry in the page table for every possible mapping and therefore some of these are marked invalid which means that we're going to get a fault we're going to try to do this access we're going to get as far as looking you know the last level page table or maybe the top level page table we'll encounter an invalid bit and at that point the hardware is like game over i can't do anything about this okay and that's called a page fault all right and um what happens there well the page table entry is marked invalid um okay or in the case of intel not present right and at this point that's a problem another problem could be we try to do a write but the page is marked as read-only some other access violation or doesn't exist at all these are all possibilities and what's going to happen there is we're going to cause a fault or a trap it's a synchronous fault which is not it's not an interrupt interrupts are asynchronous this is a synchronous fault because a memory access failed and at that point we have to do something to move forward okay and in that case other page faults actually engage the operating system uh to fix the situation and try to retry the instruction now good question what's the difference between a page fault and a segmentation fault so typically a page fault occurs when you try to access a page in the page table and it's not currently allowed okay and what happens there is the operating system gets a page fault and it can now do something just because you get a page fault doesn't mean that you can't do something you might pull something off of disk you might do a copy on write operation you might do any number of operations so a page fault isn't necessarily fatal so that's one thing oftentimes a segmentation fault is thought of as fatal so when your program dies with a segmentation fault it's historical it's called a segmentation fault because typically you're working outside of the segment well it is exactly like memory segmentation but when you try to go outside the segment if you remember back to a few lectures ago that's can't go on and that's a segmentation fault okay now in modern systems uh you could get either a segmentation fault in the kernel or you could get a page fault depending on what the what the current situation is you're gonna get the segmentation fault first because the that's the first thing that's checked are you is your address within the segment and then from there you check the pages okay all right so segmentation faults um either generically talk about game over uh to kill your program or do talk about a fault that comes because you've violated some about the segments all right so let's not dwell on that too much um we'll mention it again another uh possibility here this is a fundamental inversion of what we're talking about here the hardware software boundary because the hardware is trying to move forward and it can't move forward until software runs okay so that's a little different than we normally think right normally software has to use hardware to run here the hardware stops and says i can't do anything and the software takes over the thing that's important is when you get a page fault that's the hardware saying i can't i can't do this you can't then in the handler cause other page faults or at least you can't do it recursively in a way that will never resolve because in that case you go to an infinite loop and that's bad okay so we have to be a little bit careful about page faults especially in fault handlers so let's let's look a little bit further on an idea that we might do with this page fault idea okay so um the demand paging idea that i'm going to talk about next harkens back to the cash so here's a figure i've shown you many times over the course of this last several lectures at least which is um the idea that we have many levels of caches in the system okay modern programs require lots of physical memory uh memory systems have been growing at a 25 30 per year for a long time but they don't always use all their memory all the time this is the so-called 9010 rule which means that programs spend 90 of their time with 10 percent of their code or 90 of their time 10 of their data not always a perfect statistic but it's a way to think of things and it'll be wasteful to basically require you to have all of that huge amount of storage that you're not using in instructions say or in libraries that you've just linked but not used in the fastest memory and so this memory hierarchy is about caching it's about making the speed uh of the system look like the smallest fastest item but have the size of the largest item now the largest one i show here is tape i know that's probably way before your time but instead of just disk we could have ssd and then spinning storage and then there's still people still use tape in some very rare instances but um so the idea here would be can we use our paging tape is much larger than disk potentially um although discs have been getting awfully big and so pretty much tape is is a legacy thing now but the trick we're going to do here is we're going to use main memory which is smaller than disc in almost all cases as a cache on the disk and so we're going to think of the image of the process as large on disk and we're going to pull in only the parts of the process we need into physical dram and what we're going to do is we're going to try to make it look like even though our image is huge we're going to get the speed of the small thing with the size of the big thing let's say disk for instance and we're going to do that by using page faults cleverly we're going to basically say we're going to start with all of the pages invalid or small number of pages invalid for a process and then as we start executing we're going to get a page fault for a page that's not currently in memory and then we're going to pull it off of disk into memory and then mark the page table entry as valid and we're going to keep going and if we do this correctly we'll eventually get the working set and i'll show you what that means in a moment of the process into memory uh and so that only those things that are actively being used have to take up space in dram okay we call that uh demand paging and so by the way um caching is uh called different things depending on who does it so when you hear caching typically and especially in 61c you were talking about taking the dram and using the second third you know first whatever levels of cache as a higher speed version of the dram and all of that's done in hardware we are now going to do the same idea where we have disc as our backing store and we're going to use the the operating system to pull in the parts of the disk that we need and put them into dram and mark the page tables appropriately so we can get the same idea of caching but it's going to be done in software rather than this other typically called caching that's done in hardware okay so let me just show you an idea here so here we're executing an instruction you know we get a virtual address we go to the mmu uh in the good case we look up the page in the page table and hopefully this is in the tlb so it's fast although that's not relevant for this current discussion this all works we basically go to memory and we access that instruction so that's good because we've basically put the uh the current instruction we want in our dram now however it's possible we go to this and it's not there all right and in that instance what would happen is we um get a uh page full because we try to look it up in the page table and it's not working you know basically come back invalid which case we get a page fault and we enter the operating system with an exception okay and in that case we have to deal with the page fault handler what's the page fault handler do well you're all very familiar now with what happens when we do a system call into the operating system same idea with a page full handler it's going to be running on the kernel stack it's going to identify where on disk that page is and it's going to start loading the page from disk into dram and it's going to update the page table entry to point to that new chunk and then later we're going to run a scheduler put this back on the ready queue which will then try the instruction again which in this case will work and we win okay so this is demand paging all right and notice by the way that um i sped this up a little bit obviously when we've started when we start the million instruction load off of disk into memory we have to put that uh process on some weight queue and then when the data is actually in memory we wake it up from the weight queue and that's the point at which we can fix the page table and then put the process back on the ready queue so that it can run okay all right so this is called demand paging questions now let's look a little further along here so demand paging is a type of cache and so we can start asking our questions and by the way why is this a cache look when we missed originally it wasn't in the cache that was a cache miss and then we put it into the cache and now we have a cache hit right so this is just like a cache it's just being done in software and we're pulling things in not in cache line size things but in pages off the disk and so that's our first question what's the block size one page which is now four kilobytes not 32 bytes or 128 bytes okay what organization do we have here well this is interesting i hope you guys can all see this is a fully associative cache because we have an arbitrary mapping from virtual to physical because of the page table so the um the page table gives us a fully associative cache because we can basically put that page pretty much anywhere we want in the memory okay how do we locate a peg well a page we first check the tlb then we do a page traversal and then hopefully we found it and if we still fail after all of that then we might do something more drastic like kill off the process so earlier we were talking about in the cache we could think about randomly replacing or we could think about lru the question is what's the replacement policy and this is actually going to require a much more interesting longer term discussion which we're going to start tonight and then we're going to move our way next time in more detail but um you know is it lru is it random it turns out that the cost of a page fault that has to go to disk is high right a million instructions so we got to be really careful when we uh have our dram is full of other pages we have to be very careful of which one we choose to replace and so the replacement policy we can't just say yeah random works pretty well or lru works pretty well we have to do something else and it turns out we're going to want something like lru but we're not going to be able to do that well and we're going to show you that in a little bit okay maybe next time so what happens on a miss well on a miss you go to the lower level to fill the miss which is you go to disk okay what happens on a right well here's a good example earlier i talked about right through versus right back and maybe at the top level cache you do right through to the second level cache here you absolutely cannot do right through okay why can't we do right through for uh paging anybody guess yep that means that a write from the processor which is supposed to be really fast is going to take a million instructions worth of time okay so absolutely not no right through to disk what we're going to do instead is write back and that means we're going to have to keep track possibly in the page table entry which pages have been written to so that we know which ones are dirty and have to be written back to disk they can't just be thrown out they actually represent up-to-date data okay right so now we want to provide the illusion of essentially infinite memory so in a 32-bit machine that would be 4 gigabytes and a 64-bit machine that'd be exabytes worth of storage okay and we want to do that by using the tlb and the page table with a smaller physical memory so i'm showing you here four gigabyte virtual memory and a smaller 512 megabyte physical memory that represents uh only the data that's in memory and has to be shared amongst a bunch of different processes okay and so the page table is going to be our way of giving that illusion of an infinite amount or a maximum address based filled amount of memory okay and the way that works is in the t the tlb mapping through the page table is going to say that while certain items are in physical memory others are not and they're on disk and it's going to be up to this page table to help us with that mapping okay now the base the simplest thing it's going to need to do is uh do a really quick mapping for those things that are actually in dram we talked about that earlier for the things that aren't on dram then there's more interesting flexibility here one is that maybe you put something about which disk block it is into the page table which are mostly not page table entry which you're mostly not using the other would be maybe a special data structure in the operating system these are all options for locating on disk once you've once you've missed in the tlb page table combination okay so disk is larger than physical memory means that the virtual memory in use can be much bigger than physical memory and combined memory of running processes much larger than physical memory more programs fit into memory more concurrency okay and so the principle here is a transparent level of indirection of the page table supporting flexible placement of where we want to put things uh the actual physical data and which things we want to have on disk or not okay and that's going to be what we're going to try to figure out how to manage now so i've up till now we've talked about all the mechanism tlps page tables etc to make this work and now we need the next level which is what does the operating system do to manage all those pages well so remember the pte i showed you this one earlier this is an example in our our magical 10 10 12 example here's a 32-bit page table entry the top 20 bits are the physical page frame number either of the page itself or of the next level the page table and if you look down in here you see that the valid or present bit is down at the bottom we have whether it's a writable page whether it's a kernel or user page whether it's cachable or not and as we move our way up we have some interesting things like the dbit which is is it dirty or not and the d bit is going to get set in the page table entry when we modify the the page okay and in that case when we're about ready to replace the page we'll have the d bit to tell us something about uh do we need to write it back to disk or not the a bit or the access bit is another one that we're going to use for the clock algorithm we'll also talk about that in a bit okay so submit mechanisms for demand paging so the page table entry uh makes us do all sorts of or gives us the options to do demand paging so valid means the page is in memory the page table points at the physical page not valid or not present page is not in memory you're welcome to use the remaining 31 bits at least in the intel spec for anything you want and one thing you could use it for so notice that if this guy is zero down at the bottom these remaining 31 bits could be used by the operating system for instance to identify a disk block if you wanted or something else in internal data structures that you happen to have in memory in the kernel if the user references a page with an invalid page table entry memory management unit is going to trap to the operating system giving you a page fault what does the os do any number of things chooses an old page to replace for instance if the page is modified uh if so d is one it's got to write the contents back to the disk uh it's going to change the page table entry and the cash tlb to be invalid so notice that what we're doing here is we're picking a page to kick out maybe writing it back to disk at that point that page is going to go from valid to invalid so we're going to have to go and modify the page table entry in the page table to be invalid and since the tlb is a cache on that we're going to have to invalidate that tlb entry otherwise we're going to end up with you know the tlb giving us the wrong answer it's going to claim that a page is valid when it's been overwritten and then we're going to load the new page into memory from the disk so we uh we caused this page full because we're trying to access something that wasn't there we pulled it in off of disk put it into memory uh overriding the one we got rid of we update the page table entry for uh that new page to be valid and point at the physical page we took we invalidate the tp the tlb for the new entry why well because that tlb was invalid when we got the page table uh page fault and then finally we continued the thread from the original faulting location and we're good to go and so all of these things here are basically what makes the thing we're talking about here a cache okay this is how the combination of tlb and page table entries can be turned into a demand page caching mechanism when the thread goes to execute again after it was pulled off the ready queue the tlb will get reloaded that time because since we invalidated up here the first thing that happens is you get a fault in the tlb you rock the page table you get the new one okay so now the good question in the chat here is so in the program that was referencing that old page starts running again what happens it causes a page fault and it picks a different page to replace and pulls it in off the disk okay so the crucial thing here is to not have so much memory and use that the only thing you're ever doing is pulling pages off of disk that's called thrashing if you do that and in that case there's no actual work that happens uh only paging okay and that's the worst possible scenario assuming that we're not at that point all that we've done by pushing out a good page and that's where replacement comes into play is we're we're readjusting the working set of the running processes to be the things that are actually in dram so that we get really fast access for all those pages that are actually being used and the hope is that very rarely do we kick a page out of memory that's in active use by a process okay so hopefully that case that is being worried about in the chat here is not uh too frequent otherwise we're in trouble okay and of course when pulling pages off of disk and so on uh we want to run something else because we've got a million instructions to wait all right now so where does the sleep happen so the sleep is going to happen uh on the disc uh weight cue okay so the process that's basically trying to page in off of disk is gonna its uh tcb is for that uh thread is gonna be placed on the weight queue for that disk and it will get woken up when the block comes back from the disk and when does the the sleep happens after you uh start everything in motion and get the access starting on the disc and in that point uh when now it's all up to the disc it's at the point at which you put that thread on the weight cue all right and then it'll get pulled off the weight cue when uh when the thing comes back so now the origin origins of paging here are pretty clear um you had this is back in the really really old days where you had you know really expensive piece of equipment many clients running on dumb terminals um a small amount of memory for many processes and discs have most of the storage so in that scenario what we want to do is keep most of the address space on disk and um try to keep the memory full of only those things that are actually needed because memory is incredibly precious okay so a lot of the original paging mechanisms came up in that environment okay and you're actively swapping pages to and from uh the disk today we're very different right we have huge memories we have machines that rather than being owned by one uh by owned by one organization and used by many are typically owned by one user and basically working many processes on behalf of that user and so when we were talking about all the different ways of scheduling part of those different ways were reflecting the changing needs of of resource multiplexing and the thing the same thing is true of paging okay if you take a look for instance you do something like here's a psa ux type thing you might get off of a unix style operating system what you'll see here is the memory if you look here at physical memory we've got about um 75 percent of its use 25 is kept for dynamics and a lot of it's shared so there's 1.9 gigabytes shared in and memories distributed memories you can see that up here distributed memory excuse me a lot of it's shared in shared libraries that's what i meant to say that's about 1.9 up here and so really there's a lot that's working on behalf kind of of one user and so we're not so much uh optimizing by trying to get things out to disks that aren't used as quickly as possible we're trying to keep things in and we have a lot more memory to work with and so we want to keep that in mind when we start talking about policies for paging so there's many uses for virtual memory and demand paging we've already talked about several of them you can extend the stack you can allocate a page and zero it you can extend the heap you can do in process fork you can use the page table by setting all of a copy of the page table to read only then only when somebody modifies a page you actually copy it and so fork is a lot cheaper because of the page table um we've talked about exec where you can basically only bring in parts of the binary that are actively in use and you do this on demand okay we haven't talked about map yet but we'll talk about that for explicitly sharing regions to access the file um access shared memory um almost as uh as a file we'll talk about that a little bit and you can also access a file in memory too so let me just show you and if you'll bear with me a little bit we'll finish up kind of here maybe we won't plow into too much new mechanisms after this but so classically you kind of took an executable you put it into memory and uh that was you know you did this for a small number of processes if you look at um what we're gonna do while we're doing that today is we take a huge disc we've got our executable which has got code and data and it's divided up into segments and we loaded it and we want to map it excuse me into a process virtual address space and that's going to happen because we're going to map some of the physical pages off the disk into memory okay and so if you take a look for instance when we start up that process we have a swap space which is potentially set up that represents the um the memory image of this process and notice that that memory image on disk mirrors what we have in our virtual address space okay and the page table points at the things that are actually in memory for say for instance the dark blue process here okay and for all the other pages the operating system is going to have to keep track of where on disk they are so that if the user tries to use other parts of the virtual address space that aren't currently in memory then it needs to know how to pull them in okay and as i mentioned you could use the page table entry partially for that if you like or you could use a hash table in the in the operating system so really here's an example of the page table entry actually those extra 31 bits pointing back to where these are on disk and they could actually store disk block ids or something like that okay now um what data structure maps non-resident pages to disk well it turns out for instance in linux there's a find block which can be used to um basically take the process id and the page number you're looking for and give you back a disc block that can be implemented in lots of different ways as i said you could store it in memory you could use a hash table like an inverted page table just for that data structure and you can map code segments directly to the on disk image so that for instance when i start this thing up i don't even have to load the code into memory what i do is i point the um virtual address space entries for that process directly at disk and then the first as soon as i start page faulting them they get copied into memory from disk and i don't even have to do [Music] anything on starting up practically okay um and i can use this to share code segments with multiple instances of uh a program across different processes and so i want to show you an example here here's an example where the first virtual address space is the dark blue one it's got some code which is going to be shared that's the cyan color and then there's going to be a green process i'll show you in a moment okay here's the green one so it's got its own image on disk and if you notice it's got sort of pointers back to where things are on disk okay and the code here is pointing to the same disk blocks which can actually be part of the original image your linked image that you stored the adot out that you stored on disk both processes can backlink to that okay and um so that that way they both can end up having their code point at the same part of memory that's much more efficient since they're the same process or this gives me the same program that's running in different processes all right here's an amusing thing just notice so we have the active process and page table here might be the blue one and what happens when we try to execute an instruction or look at some data that causes a page fault well we go to the page table entry it's the data's not there we cause a page fault we figure out where the data is and we start the load happening okay and that load is started on the disk controller we'll talk about that in a couple of lectures meanwhile we start the active process we pointed at the other guy and he runs and eventually the data comes in okay it gets mapped into the page table entry we restart this page this uh process and we're good to go okay and if at that point we we allowed the light green one to run for a while and then the dark one uh was put to sleep and then it got woken up when data came back from disk so those that's kind of showing you all of these little pieces we've been talking about all put together um kind of in a big image are there any questions on that hopefully this helps a little bit okay are we good so um the steps in handling a page fault just to show you this in one last way is basically that uh our program's running it causes a reference that looks up in the page table which traps with page fault at that point we figure out where the page is it's on the backing store on the disk we start the process of bringing it into a free frame how did we get a free frame well we replaced it or ultimately we're going to be more sophisticated we're going to have a free list of free frames but we bring the page in after it's brought in we fix the page table entry and we restart okay where's the tlb in all of this well the interesting thing about it is the reason i haven't shown you the tlb in the last several slides is what can anybody give me a good reason why i haven't shown the tlb well you could say this is all with physical addresses that's true but the reason i haven't shown you the tlb is the tlb is just a cache on the page table it's making the page table faster just like i'm not showing you the cache in all this either the cache is just making the dram faster all right so the uh you could think of the tlb is part of the page table that makes everything faster and when we talk about the hardware mechanisms then we have to talk about the tlb but here for this level of abstracting i said we pull up a little bit we don't even have to worry quite yet about the tlb there are some cases that i mentioned in that slide where i showed you why this was like caching where we have to remember to invalidate the tlb to keep that caching illusion alive okay all right so some questions we're going to need to answer and we're going to do that next time during a page fault where's the os get a free frame well might keep a free list there might be a reaper that's busy pushing pages out to disk and keeping that free list maybe as a last resort we're going to evict a dirty page first there's going to be some interesting policies there how do we organize these mechanisms we're going to have to work on the replacement policy that's going to be our major topic next time how many page frames per process that's another question sort of how much of that precious physical dram do we give to um to each process that's going to be a question all right um all right so to finish up we talked about caching we finished that up the principle of locality of temporal and spatial locality is really present in regular caches it's also present in the tlb how do we know when we have enough locality that the tlb works as a cache we talked about three plus one major categories of cache misses compulsory misses conflict capacity coherence we also talked about direct maps set associative and fully associative organizations hopefully hopefully they uh reminded you um basically from 61c we talked about how to organize the translation uh look aside buffer we talked about organizations we talked about the why it's fully associative typically and what to do on a miss and we are next time we're going to start talking about replacement policies and we're going to start with some idealized ones like fifo and min and lru it turns out is also an idealized one for reasons we're going to talk about next time all right i've gone way over so i'm gonna let you guys go um hope you have a great evening and we'll see you on wednesday | John Kubiatowicz | UCnhpOONF1c1FtipDF8LPdqQ | 2021-08-31 | Creative Commons Attribution

zKZPobVWwZI | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zKZPobVWwZI | Speaker Series: Doulas for Skeptical Dads - Elm City Doulas Proud Fertility Surrogacy in Canada | matter of proud fertility and we're in the heart of New Brunswick in Freddy Fredericton right Fredericton is the city in northern New Brunswick ish and we're here with I'm cat with Elm City do it Elm City doulas is the state of the art the most amazing doula agency here in Fredericton and we are filming live from Fredericton in the store endeavour slash pink play so it's amazingly thank you for letting us use this place to film this so today as you can see we have our unicorn baby which took a lot of time to birth and so I'm gonna play the role of a sceptical dad in need of a doula or not really wanting a doula to begin with so just try to enlighten me yes I'm gonna convince the skeptical dad why do Lazar awesome alright so true story guys when I was having my first baby I was in labor Oh primal and feeling like I had this and I was loud birthing like a goddess yes I was in my zone making all sorts of noises that my husband had no clue why I was making those noises he'd never heard me making those zones before so it kind of threw everyone off in the room these noises probably sound like yeah let's do it alright demonstrate yes that's pretty song I thought about it I don't want to go in the store though yes they really do and they're spinning so that's exactly what I sounded like okay so get this guy for the nurse told my husband keep her quiet we have to get things done I guess they wanted to put an IV in or something and I was being uncooperative if you said it like that no my poor husband now felt like he had to kind of take me out of my zone or what to make me be quiet anyways that's not good for birthing women we don't want to be told to be quiet we don't want to be told to not do something that's working really well for us so we didn't have a doula it was we just didn't think about it so if we have had a doula she would have been able to help us navigate that situation you how mean yes and our baby are you baby but the thing is even if I mean aren't there lots of medical people already in yes there are making hope yes doctor doctors are amazing we love them they do an awesome job but their job is to make sure that baby and mom are healthy and safe they can't sit there and give you massages for hours on end massages yes massages let me demonstrate okay I get this I don't I'm not sure about wait is this for dads as well it's for moms and surrogate moms surrogate moms as well yes and their partners and their partners continue to demonstrate well I can moan as well if you'd like me to back massages because a lot of labouring women feel a lot of tension in their back so we're really good at that so you know they can't vet nurses and doctors can't really sit there and massage your feet your back your shoulders for hours and hours on end you know if your Labor's long so the other reason why let's cost a lot though well yes some dads and partners feel that the cost of a doula is a bit much but oh it's not free no because it's a profession we're professionals who need to earn a living and we do this yes we're very passionate about it and yes we love to do our job but we also need to pay for childcare and you know our certifications and the duels are a recognized profession they're gonna help you and you so I know it's an investment because dualist actually not only help you get through the labor by supporting you physically and emotionally but we help reduce the need for interventions so that you have an easier recovery after we also help reduce the need for c-sections so that you know you and your partner have an easier time after you have me me and you can look up those studies if you don't believe me it's true you were telling me something about going to Everest and then yes so another reason why I can convince skeptical dads is with this analogy so you don't show up a Mount Everest just saying I'm gonna hike this peak and I'm gonna wing it you can do that as a skeptical partner who won't have such an awesome time and you might get lost and you might not know what to do in certain situations and you might feel really scared or really nervous or really helpless so a doula can help you feel prepared feel confident feel informed and knowledgeable so that you can be an awesome partner and an awesome support person to your partner oh yeah a lot of partners and dads ask me you know like are you gonna take my space and I say no dude I'm gonna help you be oh dude I'm gonna help you be an even more awesome support person so nobody wants a dad that's passing out or not going to spawn or just not a lot of know what I could probably go check my score for the football game yes not them that's the kind of guy I am I love football you can have guilt-free breaks you can take naps while they do a beer maybe I wouldn't recommend chugging a beer but yeah you can go have you know a break or go outside to get some fresh air cuz sometimes flavor takes a long time so well thank you so much Kat for joining us today in Fredericton tatis from Elm City doulas please check out her page and we are in endeavor arts and thankful and think place in Fredericton New Brunswick hi everybody and bye everybody thank you bye | Proud Fertility |

cUB5qNdUFh0 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cUB5qNdUFh0 | CRLSchool2020 Introduction to shear-wave splitting with Pyhteas | so today uh we will see some things about crow splitting and uh we'll analyze some web forms with the fps software to see the isotropic effect on the recorded waveforms now um it's very important to talk a little bit i know this is a hands-on session but we need to talk a little bit about what zero speeding is so uh very briefly what's cry splitting it's a property of the propagation medium which in our case is the upper crust and cereal it's the phenomenon when a cr wave splits into two new let's say waves with orthogonal polarizations to understand better you can see in this picture that you can see my pointer the brush okay thank you so um you can see that we have an initial cr wave here an isotropic medium it enters into the anisotropic medium and splits into two different waves which travel with different velocities so you can see here in this uh let's say cube that there are two waves one here one here which are orthogonally polarized when they exit the anisotropic medium they keep this uh this split so we have two new waves that are recorded in the station and what we see at the seismological station is this phenomenon right here to the right these are recordings from two horizontal channels and they're synchronized so all these uh waveforms are at the same time and you see that i at one perform the cr wave arrives earlier than the other so this is splitting we have two waves um some key concepts to understand to understand what we're going to do so the first one is the polarization direction of the faster wave which we will call from now on fee this is the polarization direction of the fast of this wave you see here to the left this direction and another very important property of surface splitting is the time delay td which is the difference between the arrival times of the fast and the slowest wave now now sure splitting uh which is a part of sizing and isotropy um is very well studied in the western gulf of corn and crl has helped a lot in that because we have a very very dense network there with a lot of earthquakes so the amount of data that you have in our disposal is massive so um some other key concepts it's the fluid-filled microcracks in the upper crust that are related to shareware splitting this is what causes or at least we assume that that causes the crow splitting the upper crust of the gulf of corn and this can function as a proxy for stress variations which in turn can be related to forecasting of earthquakes and volcanic events now i've talked very briefly about all that i'll give you some literature next if you are interested in reading more so um the software we're going to use today is called bethes it's software we have developed in the cosmological laboratory of the university of athens and it was it was released last year and contains manual seminar fully automatic splitting analysis methods there's also a graphical interface for easier use and it can be used either for research purposes or as we will see today for educational purposes and it is built of course with seattle data which means that um all the seismological data that we used for developing for testing and for what for whatever um they are from the crl network so here this this very short presentation will be uploaded so you can do some further reading if you're interested and here are some references for uh studies that have been conducted in the worcester capital corn and concern survey splitting so that was a very very brief introduction and give me a moment to swap to the actual software okay okay so um if you have installed for the instructions that were provided for this exercise the pts software and all the prerequisites prerequisites you should be able to start the soft the program right now and see this initial image now according to this according to the exercise what we'll do today is to use some serial data try to determine the polarization direction the time delay and then validate our results and see whether we have done a good job or not so to start you can open the catalog through the toolbar menu you can open the catalog and then you need to provide three different paths the first one concerns the data that you will use which means the waveforms which are either in the sac or mc formats then a catalog file we use an xml file which is used internationally nowadays and then we can specify sorry we can specify the um the database file this is where our results will be stored and archived so you can either browse to it through this menu or you can simply do what i did so you can just copy and paste the path to the catalog and then change the extension of the file so just like that and then change the extension all these that i'm talking about are detailed in the given exercise file so you can start then the software like so and after it reads the catalog and it finds all the waveforms you can see the very first data and now i'm going to cheat a little bit and i'm going to i'm going straight to the good example to the good waveforms but you can after i show you how we do the analysis you can do it for all the data there are um there are four events provided with betheas that you can analyze and play around with the software so um we opened the first let's say event station pair this station that is located in the western south corn it's called mala and um it is a powerful station that belongs across the crl network and we have been using it for uh for many years so the first step after you open uh the waveforms is to apply a filter we need to clear up all this noise a little bit to be able to perform a scary splitting measurement because we need the very impulsive arrivals of cr waves so this is the initial image of the waveforms and i just use the shortcut control and f which applies i just did it which applies a band a bandpass filter between 1 and 20 hertz now with uh with the wheel and this while holding the shift key and using the wheel you can manipulate the x-axis the time axis and you can either zoom in like i do now or zoom out in the waveform you can use um just the wheel without any other key to change the y-axis meaning the amplitude of the waveform and so you can play with the wheel either with shift or without safe best view of the cr waves as it shoots you so i'm going to zoom in a little bit more okay so now it's time to talk about what we're seeing right here the first diagram the first upload is the vertical component of the seismogram the second one is the north component and the third one is the east channel you can see these are marked to the left of the of the y-axis now um what we see down here is what we call the polarogram the polarogram is just a synthesis of the amplitudes of the two horizontal waveforms in other words this diagram its vector its line shows us how the ground a ground particle would have moved if we were there to see it and in the last row of figures right here you can see what we call the holograms the particle motion diagrams so these are for different time intervals but you can see to the top left for its diagram but here you can see even better the continuous movement of the particle motion so what do we use these diagrams we'll use these diagrams to determine in the first place what we call fee the polarization direction that we talked about earlier so the first step after we clear up the waveform uh with the with ctrl f and after we have zoomed in for a better view of the cr waves is to pick the arrival of the sear waves of the fast cr wave so you see here there's an arrival of zero waves here i can identify and one other here i don't want this one i want this one because we want the polarization direction of the fast cr wave so um to pick the arrival this is a by the way this is an already picked arrival from the catalog so there is no measurement associated with it yet so um to pick the fast cr wave you can use control and left click and as i will do it now you'll see that the line moved which means that i picked the s arrival now when you pick the cr wave arrival at the same time here to the top left you will see that the fee value changes this is because the program automatically determines the angle the yeah the angle of the vector so for example if i pick another vector it's going to change it's going to be 56 obviously we don't want that and we want this direction so this is the arrival of the fast crm wave now this is the first step the second step is to determine the time delay as we talked about earlier to do that after we have picked the arrival of the fast of the fast cr wave we can use control and two to go to the second stage of the measurement i'll do this one more time so this is the initial stage and with control and two we go to the second stage of the measurement now at this stage what we have done is we have rotated the horizontal seismograms according to fee so these are the seismograms that we would have recorded if the north was oriented according to the polarization direction now we do this because in this case when they're rotated we can see the time difference more clearly so as we are at this stage of the second stage we use the arrow keys to move the bottom waveform the slow waveform so for example if i press left you will see that it slowly moves because the software moves temporarily the slow the bottom waveform by one step and the steps are very very small in our case it's step that the way the waveform moves is 10 milliseconds so what i'm trying to do is i'm trying to match the arrival of the fast of the cr wave in this component with this component so i'm going to start again from there we go this is the initial stage where there is no time delay measured now i want to move the bottom waveform and i move it with the left arrow key until i see that the cr waves match and i am happy there we are okay so how do i see the cr wave mounts to do that you can find um a trough or uh or a high amplitude let's say uh part of the waveform and try to mask them in this case i'm trying to match this trough with this peak and i see that they do much well um i'll always zoom in mount with changes in amplitude whatever should you better to identify cr waves in the waveform so i believe that i did a good job here by matching those two this trap in this peak and also note that while i move this waveform the bottom waveform the particle motion diagrams the polygon changes as well what you want to achieve at this stage is ideally a parallel uh polarigram so these vectors that correspond to the cr waves should be completely parallel or at least as most parallel as you can there's always noise there are always factors that don't let you do that so in this case i believe i did quite quite good job you can see they're almost parallel and we can proceed to the validation stage with control and three what this does is that it rotates the horizontal waveforms back to the north and east system but this time we have removed the effect of anisotropy so these are the waveforms that we would have taken if there was no anisotropy in the propagation medium and the goal here again is to have these vectors as much parallel as you can and as you see here this these are parallel between them now i can see that the two waves arrive at the same time so i'm going back to the first stage with controlling one you can see that there is one wave here and one wave here there is some time difference between the arrivals of the sheer waves now i go to the corrected stage with control m3 and you can see that yeah i did quite a good job apparently because you can see that the cr waves arrive at the same time now the last step in this process is to press ctrl and x and you can set a grade a being the best and a being the worst i'm gonna set a because it was a perfect example and this is how you've you've taken a crystalline measurement as you can see um well it's a very good example but if this especially with experience it can go really really fast so um this result now is automatically stored to the database and you have the following options here in the database menu you can either export which means that you can export all your results into a csv file to use them in excel or you can export figure which generates a summary figure of your measurement that you want to display for example in a paper or your presentation or whatever and now how much time do you have um i think we're still 10 minutes 10 minutes okay and i don't know if before i go to the next if there are any questions let me see the chat okay so i'm going to summarize the process really fast and this is uh okay let's go to a different measurement what else you can do with this software um this is not for analyzing just one pair of station events so there is if you press shift and e there is uh you can see the whole catalog that you have loaded into the program for example i'm going back to the first event and then if you press shift and s you can see all the available waveforms that you can analyze so this program can be used for mass analyzing data for foreign splitting and of course there are many many more functions for whoever is interested for example automatic analysis semiautomatic analysis uh which are beyond the scope um [Music] so to summarize if you want to take a measurement the first thing you do is you apply a filter to clear up the waveforms then okay then you pick the arrival of the fast waves of the fast cr wave then you go to the rotated stage where you measure the time delay with the arrow keys which measuring time delay means that you move the bottom waveform and then you can validate your results in the first third stage by seeing that the cr wave in both both components have arrived at the same time um so this is a very brief introduction share with splitting and pithas and i can see that in the exercise we have provided there are some questions that [Music] you can you can answer for example you can measure you can take a measurement and what what is the polarization direction what is the time delay just measure and of course uh for everybody who is interested in other zero sierra splitting [Music] or using the program in general we are both available me and professor kavirz for any questions or any other issues that you may have you | CRL School | UCHNfg0AacFi8UswHjhRSn0Q |

eQdSHc1bl9Y | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eQdSHc1bl9Y | Drought, Meal, Oil, and Resurrection | so first kings chapter 17 verse one elijah the titulate who was in the happiness of gilead said unto ahab as the lord god of israel liveth be whom i stand there shall not be dew nor rain these years according to my word now elijah causes the drought he says according to my word and this is this a side note this is interesting because elijah is going to show up in the tribulation period with moses james said that there i think it's three or three and a half years of no rain elijah's going to cause in the tribulation period no rain and any water left over moses is going to turn into blood so what happens is there's no rain there's no place to survive and god sends uh elijah to the brook and the raven's feeding movement that we're going to look at today converse that verse 8 and the word of the lord came on the scene after the brook dried up arise and get to this zipline which belongs to dinah and dwell there behold i have commanded a widow woman there to sustain thee now you find this in the gospel of luke when jesus is in his hometown and he mentions this gentile woman to jews helping elijah and they get angry here's that story so god sends elijah to a widow woman a gentile to take care of him and god said verse 9 i have commanded the widow woman to sustain thee so he rose and went to zephyrus and i don't know how to say it and when he came to the gate of the city behold the widow woman there did was gathering of sticks and he called to her and said fetch me i pray thee a little water in a vessel that i may drink and she was going to fetch it she's listening she's obeying he called her saying bring me i pray thee a morsel of bread in my hand i want something to drink hey wait a minute hold on can you give me something to eat too and she said as the lord thy god liveth he is a gentile woman claiming the lord god jehovah of the jews god couldn't send elijah to a to a hebrew to a jew they weren't faithful they were living in sin god had to use a gentile because look what she said lord thy god living she makes an oath to jehovah god i have not a cake but a handful of meal in a barrel and a little oil in a crook sir i don't have any cakes but i do have the means for a cake and behold i am gathering two sticks two sticks i may go and dress it for me and my son that we may eat it and die well there's not a lot she's gathering two sticks for a fire to make a cake for her and her son to die after he eat the cake and we read up here that god said i have commanded a widow woman to sustain me here's this woman she and she's kind she's right and she's listen i don't have any cake and what i do have these two sticks and what i have that's the last of the meal i have for me and my son as any mother would be you know that her love for her child would be she would make what she can make and the kid the son will get more than what she will have and elijah said to her fear not words of jesus christ words found throughout the scriptures go go that's an interesting word go it's a verb it's the shortest english sentence that can be made go and many times when god says go many of god's people don't go in all the world and preach the gospel and they don't go fear not go those are three words that identify god and jesus christ in the scripture fear not and go and do be doers of the word and not hearers only as thou has said go get the two sticks make the cake but make me there of a little cake first oh elijah how rude are you she just said she got enough for her as her son go make it but make me first bring it to me and after make thee for thy for thee and for thy son elijah you weren't paying attention she said she didn't have enough for thus said the lord god of israel there's jehovah god of israel talking to a gentile woman you gotta wonder because he asked for a cruise he asked for a water in the vessel are they at a well that's assumption i don't know but jesus sat at a well with a woman who was half jewish and half gentile and asked her for water and he never got it but thus saith the lord god of israel and there's no fight there's no well you know your god that's your god my god is better my religion but what makes there's no debate the lord god of israel the barrel of meal shall not waste neither shall the crews of oil fail so what little meal you have and it's like a flour kind of cake and what little oil you have it's not going to empty until the day that the lord sends rain on the earth and she went and did according to the same elijah that's faith that is faith she believed god enough that here comes this man out of woodwork used to be expressed when i grew up hey i like a drink of water okay hey wait a minute make bring me a cake too well start we ain't got enough what i got is for me and my son well that's okay you make a cake give it to me first and then you make cake that you don't have enough for you and your son and god said that meal that oil it's not gonna run out and god commanded her you know she could even after god command she could have said by the free will elijah no i don't believe you no i'm not gonna for me and my son we have that free will elijah said go and there are christians that god says go no don't want to do it can't do it listen there have been times that god says go give that person a gospel check go leave it and even i don't do it all the time don't think because you know i'm a street preacher and i i do i don't think i'm 100 all the time i'm not now god already commanded spoke to this woman and i don't know what god told her i don't know how god told her but elijah said water give me your last cake but it's not going to be your last cake she went and did according to the lunch she and her and her house did eat many days and the barrel meal wasted not neither the cruise of oil failed i know a lot of preachers even myself you wanted you know at two o'clock in the morning is she that she lift the lid so somebody added something in there house is happening how much is in that barrel how much is in that cruise cruiserwood i mean is the barrel she said there's only enough for me and my son so when she opens up that barrel i would assume when she scoops out the meal she's hitting the bottom of that barrel and when she scoops it up i would assume that she sees the bottom of that barrel scoops it up puts the lid on it makes cake for her and her son and elijah and they eat and i will assume maybe that oil maybe just enough gets poured out and that's it that last little drop and she puts the the the container down and then the next day she opens up the barrel and she scoops out scrapes the bottom of that barrel and puts the meal there and and pours out the oil and that last drop comes out and then it's it and she puts the container down and this happens many days a gentile woman who honors the hebrew god taking care of elijah and it all started with give me your last cake that was going to be for thy son and for you and she does it and she doesn't question she doesn't bad mouth she doesn't kick the the dirt and she went and did according to the saint of life and then god rewarded her for her house to be fed now her house did not get t-boned steaks they didn't get fast food they didn't get pizza delivery they got cake enough cake probably to feed them and there are christians out there and there are preachers out there if you give it to god god will give you blessing god will load your story out and everything will be honking great and apostle paul said the perils of this and the perils of that he said i fasted and then i i forget the expression i had no food i starved as a christian as a christian serving jesus christ paul had moments where he fasted and paul had moments where there was no food at all and it came past after the things that the son of the woman verse 17 the mistress of the house fell sick oh come on lord she's taking care of your prophet lord she's doing what you what you told her to do lord she she and you're going to have sickness in the house maybe it's because she lacked faith no she had enough faith to give elijah all her food don't you tell me she didn't she lacked faith don't tell me she gave elijah god gave to god through elijah all she had she gave her two mites her two mice wasn't coins it was oil and cruise in a cruise and meal in a barrel to make a cake that she said her and her son are going to die she gave it to elijah for god that took things when elijah said hey it's going to stay it's going to last i mean it'd be like i got this coffee cup here all right you're gonna drink coffee you can wet my throat that's what i'm saying and you'll never have to feel that cup again it's always gonna have coffee now friend that's what happened to her so now her son is sick that there was no breath left in him now the lord laid this on my heart the other day to do and i went to the doctor's office says i'm having some i want to say severe medical issues now i am not the same person i was at least from march this year and come to find out that one one of my major troubles is my lungs and my breathing and i've had two episodes in march in april where the doctors told me i was not supposed to die but i was on my deathbed that i it was one time in april april 1st this year i'm in my house and i'm trying to breathe and i can't breathe i remember in march this year i remember i opened up my mouth and where is the air where is that and that that happened to me in the 1990s with my wife and my son we'd gone somewhere we're walking to the car we parked in a parking garage in new london and there and they're walking to the car and i passed out on the hood of the car i couldn't breathe i got emphysema and copd thanks to smoking my sin this young man we don't we're not told how young he is no breath in him he died and she said to elijah what have i do to the old loud man of god she got angry hey elijah i'm taking care of you hey we extended my son's life that he may die now are thou come to me to call my sin to remembrance and slay my son now she has done something that runs all the way back to grandpa adam adam what did you do she did it it's the woman that thou gave with me eve what happened uh it's the serpent saul what happened king saul what happened what was my truth she's playing the blame game and the fact is that verse 17 is not her sin it's not elijah it's the wages of sin is death not her sin people die and one of the most common things for people to do when somebody dies is we got to blame my first wife died of breast cancer and still to this day the cancer that she had they could never pinpoint the cause that there are so many things in her life growing up as a child and and the place that she grew up in the history of that and this is the many different things that she died of breast cancer but we can't say okay what caused the breast cancer and she comes up to elijah elijah what my son's dead because of a sin that i did no and i'm not going to tell this woman to relax because no listen greed this woman has done what god told her to do this woman has taken care of a man of god she has been faithful and the only thing she's got in her life and being a widow woman she's already lost her husband and now her son has died and he said to her give me thy son uh he's dead and he took him out of her bosom she's holding the child in her lap the dead child she loves this child she's got that child hug against her body up against the breast that would have fed that child when it was an infant she's holding that child wouldn't you why is my son dead because it was something i did you remember the cakes all the cakes and i fed you god i listened to you and carried him up into a lot where he abode i don't know the son or elijah and laid him upon his own bed i don't know if that's elijah's bed or the son's bed and he cried unto the lord and said oh lord my god has thou also brought evil upon the widow of whom i so adjourn now evil is not sin there it is god doesn't sin you brought death to this woman who i'm so now that when he says i saw adjourned who run back up here where is it okay verse 9 i god speaking i command a widow woman to sustain me there so elijah verse 20 whom i sojourn god you said this woman would sustain me this woman will take care of me i am being taken care of by of this woman and her son god you've taken care of the three of us i'm living this woman's house and god you have slain her son we're playing the in the garden blame game well elijah you called to remember my sins and slay my son and elijah walks up to god god why have you killed this boy now god you know god makes alive god kill him by slaying her son elijah is heartbroken the man of god the strong elijah god what on earth did you do here what on earth just happened that woman she she's nice that woman she's taking care of me that woman has listened to you and you killed her son i don't know but this son has touched the lives of his mother and has touched the lives of the prophet of god that his death is like what on earth we are in the middle of a drought and we've been feeding this child from a meal and oil that does not run out and yet his breath has ran out god that don't make sense i don't know what you're doing god and he stretched himself upon the child three times that's cpr you want a biblical scripture for cpr there it is in the bible and cried unto the lord and said lord o lord my god verse 20 said it i pray thee let this child's soul come into him again the soul has exited the child the child is dead i don't care what the jehovah witness is in there is the dead body the spirit is gone because there's no breath in him and his return to god that child's soul i don't know much about that child that soul of that child is in abraham's bosom or it's in hell as elijah's right there right now i don't know about the job something of that widow woman or something of that child has got her all in distraught it's her only child it's her only family and even elijah's like come on god and even myself with my wife lord come on you can't why'd you take her why'd you kill her why i never did you take my wife so early come on god you got is anything too hard for the lord yeah you can't make my wife come back to life come on god and if you've never had a spouse die and you never had a child die you shut up you don't know what you're talking about and i say that because i had people whose wife is holding their hand and they sleep with their wife and they go home to their wife and their children and they tell oh you are not act like that oh shut up you don't know this with a woman and or this son the man of god elijah's like three times cpr oh lord my god come on you know elijah's got hope elijah's got faith that god is able to resurrect that child why would he be doing it if he god didn't tell him to do it and we stopped right there and there was no rest of this right and there was no resurrection god answers our prayers sometimes no we know that god resurrects his job but there have been plenty other deaths and the lord heard the voice of elijah and the soul the child came into him again he revived resurrection whether that soul went to abraham's bosom or that soul was in hell it came back into that child and the spirit of god came back into that child that child that's what the word revived revival you were dead and you brought back the light you had dead walk you had a dead living you're in sin and you're going to renew yourself and you can be saved and be revived and say you know what i'm just tired of flesh i'm serving too much of the flesh i'm going to walk in the spirit that's revived elijah took the child and brought him down to the chamber into the house and delivered him unto his mother elijah said see thy son liveth that woman had faith to say okay i'll go make a cake elijah had enough faith to say hey god you're going to resurrect this child and the woman said to elijah now by this i know that thou art a man of god that the word of the lord's in thy mouth is true you mean the meal and the oil didn't do it enough that wasn't enough it was enough but her son was better her son was so much better you see they didn't die of starvation god prevented the death by having that meal and that oil and what got that woman's attention was death you know sometimes people die in our lives and it's god and it may not be a resurrection and probably won't be a resurrection to the rapture sometimes god may have to cause a death to get your attention it's hard i've gone through two deaths of two spouses and yet i look for a third and when we look at luke chapter 4 verse 24 jesus is in his hometown and they're angry with jesus who is this guy who's he thinking isn't he you know the son of joseph and mary no he's the son of god and he said to him he shall surely say me this proverb physician healed thyself whatsoever we have heard done in capernaum do also here in thy country he said verily i'm saying to you no prophet is accepted in his own country your own people ain't gonna lie jeremiah's own hometown of antanas didn't receive them but i tell you a truth many widows were in israel in the days of elias elijah when the heavens was shut up three years and six months when great famine was throughout all the land but unto none of them was elias said saban supperta let's say we just read a city in finals onto a woman that was a widow you know god knew that child was going to die but that child did not die by what the widow woman thought he was going to die that the prophet lived with him the prophet dwelt with them and that child and the widow woman touched the lives of elijah that when that child died of other causes it caused elijah to get closer to god and claim out to god the power that elijah had to bring that child back to life look at verse 28 and all they in the synagogue when they heard these things were filled with wrath you mean that there was a story of a resurrection there was a story of a woman saved from starvation and her son was saved from starvation that elijah survived the starvation that made you angry that was a pharisee every time something good jesus did they got angry but we have a woman here and her faith is that she took what she had and this is the gospel account of the widow woman who had two mice this is the story of anna the widow woman all she had was to go to the temple and take prayer requests and go before god with those prayer requests you say what is meal and oil and took care of a man of god elijah now don't expect god on this earth that when you give little what you have which is much don't expect god to roll out all the heavenly bank accounts and open up all the saves and drown you in riches and honor that some false teachers will teach because when you look at the life of paul let's go there real quick all right now we would say that paul was a great christian okay paul gave all that he had everything his life his family everything and let's look at the riches that paul got on earth second corinthians 11 24 of the jews five times received i forty stripes dave one thirty nine stripes rice three times i was beaten with rods once i was stoned thrice three times i suffered shipwreck a night in the day i had been in the deep the sea this is not your prosperity gospel here and this is why many christians don't go because all they that the godly in christ jesus i'll suffer persecution marvel not my friend that the world hates you and never mind the world you'll have other christians and you'll have churches that hate you paul wrote to christians in the church have i become your enemy that's spoken the truth and journeys often paul was all over the place in perils of waters in perils of robbers you mean god didn't stop the robbers you mean paul had to deal with robbers in perils of my own countrymen the jews in the perils of the heathen the gentiles in perils in the city and perils in the wilderness you mean paul had wilderness of all he gave and everything he'd done for jesus christ you mean to tell me paul had wilder he didn't have the bright and shiny wonderful great life with tulips and and bambi's and all kinds of things and wonderful and great he didn't have all the riches and the perils of the sea in the perils amongst false brethren friend this is not taught in many churches i don't care what denomination in weariness you know elijah had weariness if you're going to serve the lord and do to serve the lord as best as you can and you set out to do you're going to have enemies you're going to have enemies of satan the world and other christians and they will give you weariness painfulness well come on sally i mean you've been in the street ministry for many years you've been in the prison ministry you teach you preach you study your bible you do well and your lungs are not doing well you have problems with your breathing you are missing two toes you are losing feeling in your feet in your hands you are growing old your body is defiling the teaching of evolution you mean god has not given you a perfect body to serve him not yet wait till i get the glory that the lord carries this body is going to drop dead one day and you're going to bury it i know many christians that end up in a nursing home oh but they're christians i know they're christians in washington's office in hungary that's what i was looking at in hunger paul had times of hunger in his ministry and thirst he had times of third there was no water there was no food elijah had cake and water with the widow woman in fastings off of you see fasting is not hunger and hunger is not fasting and cold even king david when he got elderly he got old they had to saw a young virgin a young woman to lie next to without sexual relations to keep king david warm the king david a king of israel after god's own heart shot on the throne shivering freeze oh man come on put another log in the fire will ya come on freezing oh man yet poor circulation you mean a man after god's own heart yes jesus christ without sin no fault in him god in the flesh suffered and died according to scripture nakedness paul had to be at times naked i would assume that was as a prisoner without clothing i don't think that nakedness was something paul wanted i think it was forced upon the christian life is wonderful great blessed hope but in this world there's misery pain sorrow sin there's discouragement there is anxieties elijah had that there's troubles and problems when you set forth to serve the lord that woman said elijah i'll take care of you and the devil said you want to make a bet job wanted to oh i say what yeah that woman down there that gentile woman that was mine and she honored you yeah you take her son away from you she'll curse you to your face god what the devil went down and took that breath out of that kid's mouth elijah prayed god brought life to that child again but that child died that child died later that woman she's out picking up two sticks she had no idea what was about to happen you don't know what you have any idea i'm gonna run to the store get some eggs or you know what for whatever reason god wants me to go get a big mac i don't know why he wants me to get a big man he wants me to run to the store get some ice cream we've had that happen but let's go get some ice cream we had to be able to get gospel track or encourage or get encouraged by another christian i don't think that woman wanted to give and in all reality would you want to be with listen i'm going to make a cake just enough for my son and me to die elijah get out of my face well yeah i got my own problems and that's the flag sometimes saturday mornings i wake up it's a part of my oh come on man i can only sleep one more hour two more hours i can just stay in bed now get up and serve me and then god will bless you now the the great reward for serving god is at the judgment seat of christ that's where we get gold silver and precious stones crowns and maybe an inheritance don't look for the gold silver precious stone here but let me tell you but god will also take care of you here if you give to the lord not grudgingly you give the lord not unnecessarily you give to the lord because you want to and that woman you guaranteed she would have i don't want to hear elijah but okay god said it god spoke to my heart to take care of you she went and did look what happened and then when her son died she got angry oh what on earth it's okay to get angry be angry and sin none i've been angry and i've sinned i've been angry and dancing that woman has the same problem i have i get too soon angry if if her and i would just have to sit down all right here's the problem god how are you going to take care of it i do that but even elijah the man of god god why'd you take this child you know what we see we see in in in the bible we see a woman give her meal in a famine we see a woman give her oil in a in a drought and we saw the sustaining of life a miracle how many widows died how many other children died during that and then her son died and she saw the miracle of the resurrection and we see the faith of that woman we see the faith of elijah and we also see the anger did you see the anger be angry and said no i've gotten angry at god many times god's of heaven you don't know what you're talking about you just shut up forgive me lord if we confess our sins he's faithful enough to forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteous at least one thing that woman was honest elijah was honest and i try to be honest now everybody doesn't have a barrel meal everybody doesn't have a cruise of oil everybody doesn't have two mites but everybody everyone everyone that is is of the human race god has given talent use your talent for god don't expect god to give you a fortune in this earth he might just give you a little cake to sustain you god i want a steak for me would be pork ribs i don't like steak god i want pork ribs no no no no you just sit there with that little cake okay you know the point in the whether the children got tired of the mana oh hey man man i'd a casual man a suit man of this man or that oh man it's toastman uh gloria get tired this man apparels even paul had barrels they're going to come troubles and problems are going to come what are you going to do with the lord | Looking for that blessed hope, | UCZb0L7xGlrUUhs0PlnAwERA | 2021-06-18 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 5,408

7ze2p100D9U | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ze2p100D9U | Nintendo Switch 2 Announced Next Week... Yeah, Time to End the BS | today we're going to be talking about what is misinformation being passed out there by a major Outlet out of the UK uh they're claiming that I'm L looking at the article right here the Nintendo switch 2 could be unveiled as early as next week and yes folks this is complete misinformation and we're actually going to have a conversation uh after we go over this about a broader Viewpoint of how I cover stuff around here and why it is sometimes frustrating for me when people uh accuse me of having a lack of journalistic Integrity uh based on my actual process we're actually going to talk about it because you guys probably don't know the process that goes behind why I post what I post on this channel whether it's leak's rumors or actual news and in the case of like yesterday when I told everyone that Mario Wonder had leaked and you guys should look out for it and people were saying that uh no it didn't actually it did yeah it actually leaked yesterday but we'll talk about that in a moment after I remind you hey we're on a road to 150,000 subscribers so I'd appreciate if you drop a like subscribe to the channel and you know what go ahead and smash that Bell icon to be notified of all future uploads so yeah I'm in my casual Weare today you know what's not cool misinformation and you see it here at the express website this is out of the UK as you're note in the UK website and it says Nintendo switch 2 specs Nintendo's console is more powerful than you think and then it goes on to say it looks like the Nintendo switch 2 and this is the key line which could be unveiled as early as this week and I presume they mean next week at this point it says you know Friday October 13th presuming they mean next week because I don't think they meant it's being unveiled today anyways we'll be able to match the power of the Xbox series s oo this sounds like a tantalizing article but as you go through it it'll say new details emerged no no link to where those details are from uh rumors 2024 release date information has started the leak thick and fast um look as a thick boy not sure I appreciate the thick and fast remark there come on Express you can do better than that anyways um as you as you see here the latest report shed some light talking about Gamescom behind vent notice that they're not actually sourcing anyone here they're they're talking about the Gamescom news which at this point is over a month old uh yeah according to uh the editor of a Brazilian site Universal Nintendo you know you could say his name Necro fipe Lima anyways the new console will launch within impresso 12 GB of RAM again this is old news but it's fine this is a major outlet they might get to these stories a bit later and the stories have been out there longer and more easily to be vetted so it's okay to cover this late that's not really what I have a problem with uh uses less than 16 gabes of ram it talks about the other Platforms in addition to a sup version of breath of the wild Nintendo will demonstrate the power of switch Sho by running the matric awakens on the device switch to version of make uh you know unreal 5 instead of been running the D LSS 3.1 instead of 3.5 this is actually hotly debated It is believed to be dlss 3.5 but considering that he referenced Universal Nintendo he probably just got all this information off the tweets from uh necro Felipe Lima when because he was the one who brought up 3.1 anyways this is all old news right we've we've covered all this stuff Ray tracing yada yada according to a previous report by Chinese site money GA a company called hongen is manufacturing metal cases for a successor which yes that absolutely is a thing out there but again you say where you're getting the information from but you don't link to it which leads to some doubt the console will reportedly cost $3.99 $100 more than the price of the switch swi she will have an LCD screen Microsoft court documents speculate Swit Sho will have a 2024 release date and nothing so so up in here you said which could be unveiled as early as this week and then nothing in your article supports it being unveiled as early as this week there's literally nothing in here you just threw a tagline out there to combine with your title it's misinformation I'm not saying the information in the article is misinformation although it's improperly sourced when you're sourcing things in journalism online you can't just mention where you got it from you have to actually directly link to the actual articles and the information that you're referencing he didn't do that and I'm not here to put him on blast please don't go attack the guy or attack the outlet it's just not great and then on top of that obviously that that tagline I mean I I don't think that this is going to affect most hardcore Nintendo switch owners that obviously follow content creators and other people that can clarify this stuff but a more General consumer level like if my mom lived in the UK and she saw this she might legitimately think the Nintendo switch 2 is being announced next week and that could affect her ability in her shopping this holiday season because she might be like why would I buy people a switch if switch 2 is being announced but it's not being announced this upcoming week as far as we're aware it is not being announced this upcoming week and there is nothing in this article that even gives us the suggestion it's being announced this week this is what we call obvious misinformation put out there to get clicks this is clickbait I know there's that term we talk about it quite a bit sometimes and there's a lot of you out there that think I massively participate in it and we've already talked about in the past how we be changing up our titles we're not going to be calling rumors leaks and leaks rumors we're going to do a much better job clarifying that stuff in the uh moving forward and all of that jazz and that is stuff in the title but I don't try to promise things that don't exist I will never put out a title that says switch 2 could be unveiled or will be or might be unveiled next week and then in the video not even talk about that that is misleading misinformation and and unfortunately it happens and I'm not here to uh r on anyone or make fun of people because that's not really what we do here I don't believe in attacking anyone but what's interesting is yesterday I put up my video which you guys saw and if you didn't you should go check it out it's a pretty good video and it talks about you know a AAA game coming to Nintendo switch shoot it's Call of Duty of course because you know that deal is now closed so we can actually say hey Call of Duty is going to be coming to switch 2 but more than that it talked about the fact that Super Mario Wonder had leaked and in there I was really wishy-washy on my talking CU I said hey I you know can't confirm this cuz I wasn't going to download a ROM uh believe it or not it's illegal and I don't need to risk my career and pissing off Nintendo so yeah I'm not going to download a ROM to confirm that oh this really is the ROM but I can tell you what went into me making that video so there were leaks already out there of the demo and stuff like that that I saw on Twitter and then people were making all these speculation videos about the voice actor and uh articles and turns out the voice actor for Mario was completely Incorrect and is not what all those videos and articles said it was and that that's misinformation as well but I'm not here to chastise that I chose not to cover that because the way that it seemed they were trying to figure out who voiced what in the game seemed like a really flawed process and I don't know how nobody else seemed to notice how flawed that process was but anyways I chose not to covered that but what that did Le me down was the rabbit hole of finding out hey I had heard the demo was the complete game and that the demo has leaked all you got to do is remove the 15-minute timer also I noticed a few of our users mentioning to me that they were getting their retail copies early even from Amazon so I sat there and I said I need to see if Mario Wonder has leaked online now I was all over the tears of the Kingdom stuff back in the day you guys know this and I know I remember distinctly how tears of the kingom leaked all right to give you an idea before the day before all the reports came out about tears of the Kingdom leaking and it being widely available and you're seeing live streams everywhere the day before that happened in actuality the game had already leaked it was on a Discord server there was only one to two people actively doing private live streams on it and one link being shared with very very few people actually playing the ROM file but the ROM file existed and was technically out there and obviously once it's out there it's only a matter of time before it becomes massively and widely available so it's interesting because I saw people say oh it's not out there unless this website says it or that website says it I'm like no that's when the file hits the public servers when you're talking about a private distribution it's not really like that so I saw somebody playing a ROM file they literally went to desktop and then loaded up an emulator and played the so like I knew someone was playing a ROM file on a private Discord server now how did I find this private Discord server what did I do well whenever you want to find things that maybe you shouldn't be looking for because it can be dangerous I went to forchan and yeah I spent over three hours scouring forchan digging through fake claims of it leaking all of that to find a link to a Discord server that went I joined sure as [ __ ] Mario Wonder was there and being shared I didn't download the file to confirm I saw the person load it from desktop into an emulator that was good enough for me to say it's going to leak because this is exactly what happened with tears of the Kingdom the day or really hours before it massively hit online and then guess what happened roughly about 10 hours after I put my video up it was massively and widely available online but there were distinct people going down in my comment section their comments getting 20 30 40 plus likes being like fake news game didn't leak you got to stop being Missle you're not doing your research and it turns out no I actually did do my research and was on top of this before it became widely available the point of that was obviously to warn people about spoilers and now you're seeing today a bunch of websites a bunch of uh videos going up about the leak even though it happened late last night where uh it became widely available it was actually available more than and there's probably people down in the comment section right now that could tell you that they were one of the select early people that maybe was dealing with it before it became fully public I have a process when I'm covering news of trying to really really dig into things and I don't I am not perfect I am not infallible and it's kind of like this article here it's not perfect it's not infallible and it made a claim to get clicks that isn't supported by anything in the actual article and I try not to do that even when I'm calling a rumor a leak at least what's in the title is actually talked about and shown in the video I always am super transparent about all of this stuff even if you know you mix up the rumor and the buzzwords out there to try to get clicks I know all about getting clicks this video was probably titled in a way to get clicks it it's just it's interesting to me to watch um a lot of harsh judgment come down on people like me and this happens to other content creators well as well who work very hard to verify and do our best to bring you guys the best information our interpretation of information isn't always the best we don't always have the best takes and we clearly make mistakes as I said bunch of people sharing you know who was the voice actor of Mario in the Mario Wonder game and then it turned out that that was completely incorrect we're not perfect we're not infallible we all make mistakes I mean I think it was uh one of my good buddies R gt85 yesterday who put up a video about Best Buy and and something about them removing video games and that's not what they're doing so that was misinformation as well they're removing movies and DVDs and it was already announced by Best Buy but again at the time that he was making the video he had to work with the currently available information and the website wasn't loading and he showed the website wasn't loading the original Source cuz it was being overloaded so I I I don't even blame him for that we we make those kind of mistakes when it starts to spread because it did originally when those Best Buy stuff came out it started to spread that oh no they're removing all physical media including video games that wasn't actually what the rumor was that wasn't actually what was being said and then when Best Buy came out and confirmed it again they reconfirmed they're not removing video games I I I just I think we need to do a maybe not jump to conclusions so much uh in the case of the story of the leak the primary reason I was probably getting called out yesterday was because I did not provide a source to the leaks down in the description but there's a reason I didn't provide a source because in order to provide a source say a link to the Discord or whatever or to even show you the Discord on screen I could be risking Nintendo coming after me this is a very serious thing Nintendo hates that their games leak out there and it is illegal I am not going to provide links to illegal things and I'm not going to show where you can get access access to those illegal things on my screen so I mentioned a Discord server not going to show you it I'm not going to show you how to get to it I can explain how I found it but that's about it like guys this is a process of protecting myself while still trying to provide you the most up-to-date information and that's what I do here at my channel I try to provide you as upto-date information as I can might be some bad takes might be some inaccuracies here or there and I might make a reference or say something that's wrong and you guys are awesome at correcting me and I really appreciate it but I what what I don't appreciate obviously is when people are man fake news you're such a bad journalist you're such a bad this meanwhile Not only was I correct the entire time um I did research that you didn't and you weren't aware of and I think it's important that we remember that we don't all know everything and that includes myself and when I make mistakes I comp to them I comp to the issues I've I've had in the past I comp to um I think it's an important part of growth so next time you want to yell at a content creator about fake news or this isn't real or yada yada y maybe check their sources and if they don't provide any maybe decide if you want to put in the research to find out if it's real or not checking around on social media and clicking a few websites isn't enough especially for stuff like this when people are sharing illegal files all right guys thank you so much for tuning in uh hopefully nobody believes this absolutely fake story someone probably does unfortunately and uh we'll catch you in the next

Luke 24 this is called the road to Emmaus this is the day that Jesus Christ was raised from the dead and he began a series of showing up in real time in people's lives and almost saying surprise our greetings and he did it uniquely to each person and I think real quick have y'all seen any of the line of which in the Wardrobe movies read the Narnia books CS Lewis one thing you'll consistently see from Aslan who's Jesus one thing you'll consistently see is Aslan telling other people I only tell you your story I'm not here to tell you everyone's story I'm not here to for you to read that they'll to see everyone's laundry you know everything about everyone in the church I'm here to talk to you you I think it's interesting how often we want to know what's going on everyone else's lives without knowing what God's doing in our life and so this happened to two men there's some parallels to be drawn to us but this is their story now that same day two of them were going to a village called Emmaus about seven miles from Jerusalem they were talking with each other about everything that had happened as they talked and discussed these things with each other Jesus himself came up walked along with them but they were kept from recognizing him he asked them what are you discussing together as you walk along they stood still their faces downcast one of them named Cleopas answered or asked him are you only a visitor to Jerusalem and do you not know the things that have happened there in the past days what thinks Jesus asked about Jesus of Nazareth they replied he was a prophet powerful in Word and in deed before God and all the people the chief priests and our rulers handed him over to be sentenced to death and they crucified Him but we had hoped that he was the one who was going to redeem Israel and what is more it is the third day since all this took place in addition some of our women amazed us they went to the tomb early this morning but did not find his body they came and they told us that they have seen a vision of angels who said that he was alive then some of our companions went to the tomb and found it just as the women had said but him they did not see he said to them how foolish you are and how slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken did not the Christ have to suffer these things and then enter his glory and beginning with Moses and all the prophets Jesus explained to them what was said in all the scriptures concerning himself as they approached the village to which they were going Jesus acted as if he were going farther but they urged him strongly stay with us for it is nearly evening the day it's almost over so he went in to stay with them when he was at the table with them he took bread gave thanks and broke it and began to give it to them then their eyes were opened and they recognized him and he disappeared from their sight they asked each other or not our hearts burning within us while he talked with us on the road and opened the scriptures to us they got up and returned at once to Jerusalem there they found the eleven and those with them assembled together and saying it is true the Lord has risen and has appeared to Simon then the two told what had happened on the way and how Jesus was recognized by them when he broke the bread we know these words to be trustworthy and true amen so this begins you've got two guys walking and the Greek puts two words together that are a strange combination but I think it's it's very descriptive of many of us first it says he's two guys and it uses this word to show that they had a long-term relationship as a conversation partner he's describing that one or two people you have that you talk to all the time that's the person you call this the person you text it's the person you go get coffee with these two men have a long-term relationship where they're consistently having an ongoing conversation the second word that's used is debate they're kind of arguing I've joked that disciples of Christ have three sacraments baptism communion and arguing they're debating they're hashing it out they're talking so they have a long term relationship where they talk to each other and then they are engaging in an ongoing debate as well particularly debating what just took place one way to look at this is that they were both preaching at each other you've been preached at are you being preached at but you're getting I mean you're pretty you preach what you think and someone's preaching what they think and you're declaring proclaiming the truth as you know it that's what they're doing well scripture says in this state Jesus Christ appeared to them he came up and walked along them they did know it was Jesus they were kept from seeing him and so Jesus said what are you discussing together as you walk in the Greek he's saying what words are you exchanging back and forth it's almost like I don't want to use weirdness but kind of regurgitating like it's a y'all aren't getting anywhere are you like you're talking in circles woody what are your what are you saying what words are you backing for thing and it said they stood still in their faces were downcast now it appears that Jesus is saying I want to know what you see and what you know but what he's really asking is tell me what you haven't seen tell me what you don't know the men began to say well here's what we know there is a man named Jesus he was a good man he's from Nazareth he was a prophet he told the truth he was powerful his words were good and so were his deeds many people gathered around him and so did God God approved what he was doing they went on to say but the problem is you see at the height of his ministry the worst thing possible happened he was taken and he was crucified and he's dead it's gotten so bad now that it's the third day and the Jewish custom was back then within three days there could be a miracle where your life could come back you might be in a coma the Lazarus thing where you could come back to life resuscitated because it was the third day even in their customs that these men were saying Jesus is irrevocably dead I'm changeably dead they go on to say to the living Lord they tell him and even more his body's missing someone said they saw an angel or something that he's alive and so we went to go see and all there is is a missing body and here we are talking Jesus is saying what don't you see and what they don't see is him they don't believe in a living Lord as we begin this story Jesus has located that part of us that isn't founded upon loving Christ and walking with him based on his work and resurrection instead we look at him as a life coach that part of us that's attracted to Jesus teaching to what he did to what he said what he meant to so many people but after that were about stuck that part of us that either believes today are used to believe that the primary means the primary reason Jesus came was to show us how to be better human beings how to progress we don't live and rely upon Jesus being resurrected from the dead having died on the cross intentionally instead we focus on his life and his ministry I hear that a whole lot why do I need the cross why do we need the blood preacher can you I had somebody even asked me at our last church can we do communion that leave the word blood out like let's just not do communion we don't like the body in the blood part we we went Oreos and milk you know there's a temptation to be attracted to the man from Nazareth to Jesus Christ there's a temptation to be attracted to what he said and what he does to treat him as the means of being a coach for us a guide for us a life coach so we can learn how to live our lives better we can obey his teachings and if we obey his teachings then they'll be peace on earth not if you thought that before and even kind of still think that a little bit yeah right I mean that's if that's in us well when Jesus showed up he heard he's been preaching at each other they just spent a long time walking behind Jesus they were probably two of the seventy that were sent as missionaries they weren't the original twelve but Jesus had other missionaries they saw him they knew him they'd come close to him so they're preaching memory memorizing him talking about him but when Jesus shows up and he says hey what are you preaching their immediate response was to stop walking and to put their head down in tears that's a pretty good gospel the gospel of crying the gospel of death that is always going to be the conclusion of believing in the teachings of Jesus without believing he's alive believing in the teachings of Jesus the the the power of Jesus the the miracles of Jesus the hopes of Jesus without believing that he'd actually been raised from the dead he descended on high he's enthroned and he is sovereign that sermon still is preached and it's always ending up with tears how do y'all feel right now about the state of the human race feel pretty good we're good good to go possible war with South Korea or North Korea at some point hatred figuring out calling people illegal illegal people fighting over I mean completely split upset distrustful we don't trust our leaders if we had leaders on the other side we wouldn't trust them either how you feel about the human race right now have we progressed I mean our I know we can talk to people up in the International Space Station I know we can fly across the United States on a jet and in just a couple hours but have we gotten any more decent is there any more peace Jesus Christ did not come primarily to be a life coach to teach us how to live our lives and then there would be utopia if that's what we believe if that's what your heart is set on ultimately that part of you that believes that we'll end up walking alone on a seven mile walk crying looking at the ground our hope is not in the human race getting our act together that's who Jesus met he met two men who were enamored with what he thought in where he came from from Nazareth with with all of his miracles and signs but they didn't see the most important part and that's what Jesus is here to show them Jesus listened to their preaching and then in a way that only Jesus could do begins his reply with how foolish you are a-pink's a Luis you are how slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken first sentence how foolish you are how slow of heart to not believe that all this other things that the prophets have spoken another way to say that is why are you putting so much weight on your intelligence in your own preaching and your own ability to predict the ways of the world why are you putting so much weight and authority on what you think happened in Jerusalem and putting no weight on the scriptures and the prophets and the days of old Moses and the likes of them why how foolish you are to completely throw out any external Authority and believe that you're your own Authority the truth resides in you how foolish you are to look at a scenario and interpret it on your own when these things have been prophesied you're just sermon right there not trusting what is written not trusting what was promised not trusting what was spoken all we do is trust on how we feel on what we think how foolish you are says Jesus do not believe have slow of heart you are did not believe then he goes on he says two sentences that then the next thing did not the Christ half to die did now the Christ half to suffer all the things you mentioned and then enter his glory did you not did you Jesus doesn't say a thing about all the things the Christ would say and teach all the things a Christ would show and reveal all the things Jesus explicitly said this is why the Son of God came to earth the Christ to die whereas your preaching he says to them says that the worst thing that happened was the cross Jesus is the best thing that happened was the cross well you say the cross is the nuisance but he died on a cross and he still did and even though the angel said he's alive wait a minute it's his look but I don't believe them he's still dead and the women said he's loved but I don't believe them either he's dead and because he's dead the worst thing that happened was his death on the cross and the best thing that happened was what he taught so let's remember what he thought and Jesus said no the best thing that happened is that the Son of man came to die on the cross so that your sins could be imputed unto him and his righteousness could be imputed onto you and you could have life in his name and then listen to his teachings that's what Jesus said one of the biggest transformations I went through as a Christian was when I quit fighting the atonement scripture says that the cross is offensive embrace it I had all the arguments how could God he's a child abuser how could he huh how could he do that to his own kid how could he then Jesus did on the cross and I also thought if God is truly sovereign and he's truly good why did he have to do it through death why can't he do it another way have you thought these things okay well what's the deal consistently offended I can't believe in that I can't believe in that I love Jesus I love what he taught I love that he's raised from the dead but I cannot believe that the cross has any value I've been there that's what these guys were take up the cross everything spine add the cross everything's ruined and Christ Jesus says if you don't embrace the cross by faith if you can't get over the offense and just cling to it you can't claim the blood of Jesus even though that's a foreign concept to you don't understand it if you can't do that then none of the Scriptures will make sense and when I break bread you won't see me don't you know that the Son of God the Christ had to suffer these things and don't you know that this was part of his glorification Jesus Christ is not our life coach he's not primarily a blueprint at a do-it-yourself seminar he's not Google I want to build a head a headboard google it let's do it yourself build the headboard here's how you do it Christ isn't he doesn't show you how to do life and that's the only reason he came Jesus Christ came to live the life you could not live to fight the fight you could not fight to defeat the enemy you could not defeat he did what you couldn't do and so these men walked and they heard their preaching quit and they heard Jesus preach when you'd love to hear him preach himself they heard Jesus Christ preach and then it says Jesus opened the scriptures to their eyes from Moses the prophets and all the rest and he explained to them that if you grab hold if you quit if you quit cursing the cross and cling to the cross everything makes sense he dealt with the reality that we see in st. Paul's writings that the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing it's a stumbling block to the whys but is the power of God for those who are being saved jesus said foundationally at day one the cross the cross is it if you flash back about three or four months before that he was on the road to Jerusalem before the cross and one of his best disciples Peter they were walking together and Jesus said hey what do people say who do people say I am and Peter said oh some people say your prophet and Jesus said to Peter well who do you say that I am and Peter said you are the Christ gods and Jesus was taken back up here flesh and blood didn't teach you that that's from God well done but then Peter went on to say or Jesus went on to say now that you see that now that you've confessed that I'm the Christ you know these things then right you go maybe God told you this - great we're going to go to Jerusalem and we're going to have a great festival and we have a great time there and I'm going to dine across I may be rejected I may be spit upon him to be whipped I'm going to dine across right you've read the Bible right Peter I'm glad you talked to God right he just told you in the krusty you know this part - and then Peter said forbid it Lord that cross business no no you're the Christ who's going to come and teach us how to live you're the Christ is going to come and dominate the Romans you're the Christ is going to come in and give us the life that we can predict you're that kind of Christ and you don't talk about a cross that's what Peter said quit talking about the cross and Jesus looked at it and said get behind me Peter Satan give let me Satan get thee behind me Satan could it be could it be that Jesus even before he took the cross for he cling to that rugged cross before he did that he saw and predicted and prophesied that one of the most perverted twisting false gospel preaching that's going to come is trying to do Christianity without the cross see that could it be that he called it right then first Proclamation he's the Christ awesome and in weakness get behind me Satan as in Satan's there Satan showed up the same Satan that was going to sift them like we showed up and said yes but no cross he's dealing with the same thing in the story dealing with this and the same thing in your heart say quit trying and I'm I'm a lefty too I was raised in the far left and I and I love the teachings of Jesus and hippy Jesus and must be nice to everyone and all that I get that feed the hungry clothe the neck I get that social justice I love that stuff but Jesus is saying you cannot have a deep relationship with me unless it's on the basis of my cross is central you over embrace it you love me or do you love the version that you've built about me and so jesus taking the cross taking the atonement taking this truth that's God's mystery executed by Jesus perfectly Jesus takes it and now the Bible makes sense all the Scriptures make sense and then he went home with these guys he's going to walk on and the guys say his Heon late he should walk out on the road by yourself they don't know it's Jesus he can do whatever he wants but he says okay I'll come in and he reclines with him and he and he and he gets to know them and it says that their hearts were open to them open and Greek it's only used eight times this exact word it's the same opening which is the same use for an opening of a womb or the opening of the heavens because their hearts were open to him as in the full process if you'll bird the baby before you as a process is not not without pain and the hearts are open they're fully aware they're seeing Christ and then the breads broken and Jesus physically appears to them I'll tell you what happened in that moment and it's something that's happened to me Jesus of Nazareth in that moment became Jesus Christ who do you say that I am Jesus of Nazareth has to become Jesus Christ for you he's not I mean he'll guide you and he'll give you some guidance and all that Holy Spirit but Jesus Christ the Anointed the Messiah was not a life coach primarily he is the Savior that's why we say when anyone joins the fellowship do you believe that Jesus is the Christ not do you believe that Jesus is a profit or do you believe that Jesus did a lot of good things or do you believe that everyone lived like Jesus we have peace well it's not in there it's do you believe that Jesus is the Christ son of the Living God Lord and cross day one Jesus Christ when the gospel was being drilled into the church day one he deals with the problem of Peter that the cross is not to be rejected it's not the worst thing that happened it was necessary it was his greatest work it's painful it's ugly it's bent it's cold it's hard because it's sinful it's covered in your sin I don't want to look at my sins either but to leave the cross out is to reject the work and supremacy of the work of Jesus Christ and so this Easter this Eastertide we're living in right now that's the question who is Jesus to me who is he see a friend see a life coach or is he my life either he doesn't give me hints he is my life he's not an attaboy on the back he's my hope he's not a suggestion he's the truth he lived a life I could never live and because of faith in him I no longer live I died with him and Christ now lives in me and when we stand before the Lord in the end he's not going to ask how often did you obey my son he didn't ask won't ask what would Jesus do he an F did you try your best they'll say when you look at my son who do you see you see an object of scorn see fool you see someone you like in your fan of or do you see the Christ the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the earth let's pray father in the name of Jesus who is the Christ we ask that our hearts would be seared and pierced with the truth it's an embrace Christ to walk in Christ to have life in him includes his cross it includes the mystery that Jesus Christ actually took upon himself every bit of our frailty and sin every bit about our adultery he did these things and at the same time the same mechanism that took away our sin also imputed his good standing before you upon us so that he heard condemnation that day and we now hear acceptance if we plead anything but the blood of Jesus god help us nothing but the blood we ask in the name of Jesus Christ that in that freedom we're we're no longer proving ourselves no longer fighting scrappy trying to make sure we have a plate a place on the Southwest Airlines flight before anyone else takes them all instead we trust that if we're in Christ that you have taken up a place in heaven for us we have an Avatara waiting keeping our spot for us where you are there we shall be also we don't have to defend ourselves we don't have to earn our spot we just have to trust in Jesus Christ made that freedom that okayness enable us to be kind and generous to lean toward outsiders to share the gospel and to recognize we have nothing to gain from this world all we have is to give through the love of Christ Jesus we love you father and we thank you for revealing this truth for Jesus personally defending it and for the church to reside upon it for all these centuries in Christ's name we pray amen | FCCLubbock | UC4ke-gPkivfyM8jnbrxdiPg | 2017-05-01 | Creative Commons Attribution license

Si5vsF_I8ro | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Si5vsF_I8ro | DIY | Halloween/Fall Decorations 2020 | hi everybody welcome back to my channel um today i'm going to switch it up a little bit instead of i'm showing you how to decorate what i bought i'm going to do some halloween and fall diys so i'm going to show you everything i bought and we're gonna do three projects so first i went to walmart to grab a few things they carry these in the craft section um these are the round wooden sticks that we're gonna be using we're gonna be making a fall candy bouquet a halloween candy bouquet and we're going to do these wine glasses make them into candle holders we're going to do a ghost one a pumpkin and a frankenstein so these are pretty cool these are like a dollar 47. um you can get 16 or 20. so um i had a couple left over but i grabbed them because you need them to make the bouquets they had this cute little girl scarecrow look at her cute little pigtails she was a dollar so i thought that was really cute that we can incorporate that into our fall okay and then i found this spider at walmart this was a dollar 24 and you can move it around and adjust this leg so i thought that would be cute for our halloween bouquet i grabbed these box candies movie theater candy ones you need four of them because we're gonna make the halloween one into a box we're gonna create it and grab some paint from the craft section um these are acrylic paints and they're only 50 cents and they have like 100 different colors so i grabbed an orange one to make the pumpkin candle and a green one for the frankenstein i have some other ones uh paint already so i'm gonna use a white one to make a ghost i have these left over these are from the dollar store the googly eyes and i'm gonna attach them for the go size and maybe frankenstein so then i stopped at the dollar tree i found this cute sunflower can which i really love and it's pretty big so that i can insert the styrofoam to create my fall candy bow pack so this is only a dollar it walks over to get some um daisy sunflower type looking flowers so you get like five on here for one dollar then i found these pumpkins so they are on sticks already you get four for a dollar they have glitter on them so i'm gonna use them i'm gonna split it up between the fall and halloween bouquet next i found at the dollar store was these cute little witch hats and you get three of them for a dollar and i thought that would really really be cute on the halloween book and then the dollar store i found um the purple roses with the eyeballs so we're going to incorporate that into our halloween candy bouquet so you pretty much want to grab um the fun size ones you get five or six in a pack so you want to grab a few of them because you're gonna make different ones to make it all have three or four pieces of candy on the wooden stick so i just grabbed you know a whole bunch of reese's that's my favorite um skittles milky ways and m m's so um those are going to be separated to make the two bouquets and then i found a pack of tea lights which was pretty good you get 20 of them for a dollar and they are going to be glued on top of this or you can just set it on top of it because once it runs out you can replace it so we're going to turn this into this dollar wine glass which really nice from the dollar store got three we're going to make these into spooky candle holders so let's get started uh make sure you got a glue gun if you don't you can buy this at walmart a couple bucks and they have glue sticks so i've got all my stuff to get cracking and you are going to need some wire cutters or such very strong scissors because when you cut these apart so you can pick this up at the craft section at the um walmart or any like joann fabrics make sure you have that ready your glue sticks your glue gun and then you want to kind of separate everything to know what you're going to do to create it put it together and then we're gonna decorate it and make our projects come all together so we're getting started with the candy we're gonna pick three a piece and stick it onto the stick so i like to get all the candy ready so the glue can dry because it takes a little bit you want to have a good glue gun mine is not the greatest i need to upgrade but it does the job so i'm just gonna quickly go through the candy once i have that all set we're gonna start creating the bouquet so um get a different you know a couple different varieties of candy my favorite is reese's but it's always great so then i'm just going to stick these all together kind of create a little scene i used the little scarecrow as the centerpiece and i added the pumpkins and flowers and it just came to life i really thought it was cute and i hope you like the finished product as much as i do [Music] so next i'm gonna work on the halloween one so i put all the box candies together i'm gonna glue them very tightly to make sure they stick because they're a little bit heavier so make sure you fill in all the gaps even if you have to go over it once you put it put it all together you can go through the sides to make sure it all sticks together so once we have the box together stick the styrofoam in the foam and then i am again gonna start putting my candies on the stick so i'm gonna make about six of these again use three candies each get the hot glue stick the stick and let it dry you want it to harden up a little so they don't fall off once you start sticking them in the candy bouquet so um again you know quickly just organize your stuff so that it can just flow really good for you so once i have all my candies set up again i'm going to rearrange and figure out how i want to do this halloween bouquet so after the candy is setting i'm gonna start with my main thing which was the spider and then i'm gonna create again a little uh i don't know a little scene so i love the little witch hat so i put them in the front with the eyeball and then i'm just going to quickly make sure everything's even add some more flowers for the decor and then once i have it up i'm going to add another rose to the top stick another reese's in the back and this little pumpkin and here's my finished product for the halloween bouquet i hope you guys like it i think it's super cute and that spider just sets it off [Music] next i'm gonna start painting so i forgot to get a paintbrush so i had this sponge brush so get a couple different brushes it'll be easier because i had to go over it a couple times it's going to need a couple coats so let it dry and repaint um definitely get a few more brushes because i had a wash in between and that just makes it more time consuming so this one's gonna be our ghost one so i finish up i'm gonna leave the top clear i'm not gonna paint that um that's where we're gonna place the tea light on you don't wanna glue it on because once tealight runs out you're gonna wanna replace it so next i'm gonna do the orange for our pumpkin and again you're gonna have to go over it again to make sure um it's completely covered because it's once it dries it looks all like streaky so you want to add more paint to it and then i want to paint the top to look like the stem of the pumpkin so i'm doing the green again try to rotate it and once that dries you might want to have to go over another coat or two depending on how well your paint brush is i'm using a sponge brush so it went on a little smoother but again you're going to need to do an extra coat or two so once that is done i am going to start on the frankenstein one so after that i'm gonna paint this one all green and again you wanna apply another coat after it dries just to make sure it sticks and there's no gaps in between so i'm trying to make everything smooth but sometimes it drips because it's a little thick but we're gonna leave the top of the stem to kind of create frankenstein's hair [Music] so when i'm done that i'm going to take another little paintbrush and i'm going to start painting the top black and i'm going to make some hairline so it looks like his hair so again i'm just trying to fill in all the top of the base of the glass and it's kind of hard to paint upside down then i'm going back to the ghost after it dries a little and i'm going to start adding the face so i just did a simple three circles for the ghost size frankenstein i'm going to do the googly eyes i thought they were pretty neat so we put on the googly eyes and then i made just a simple zigzag for his mouth and then i wanted to give him some scars on the top of his head looks like stitches and it was easier with the thin brush so if you can get one of those if you're gonna paint faces that helps really good so then i went to the pumpkin and just gonna do the triangle eyes and a triangle nose and then the mouth i'm gonna try to do like you know crooked smile with looks like the teeth so try to keep it simple i'm not the world's best painter but um i try so once that's finished we're gonna let them dry for a little bit and then we'll place the tea lights on top and then everything comes together here's my finished product we have the fall bouquet the halloween bouquet and the three candles with the tea lights on top i hope you guys all enjoyed please make sure to like and subscribe to my channel and if you have any um comments leave

0ECqAg6sl-4 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ECqAg6sl-4 | 10 Reasons Why Australia Is The Best Country In The World | ah australia the land down under the sixth largest country in the world by land size but only the 55th most populated australia is one of if not my favorite country in the world after visiting there multiple times throughout my life i can truly vouch for how amazing it is australia has it all big fun cities tropical beaches rainforests desert and interesting historical culture so in this video we've made a list of 10 reasons why australia is the best country in the world and this is coming from a brit if you disagree with any of our points or perhaps you are australian yourself and you can confirm them then let us know in the comments section below we love reading your comments so starting off with number 10 it's population density although it's major cities like sydney melbourne and brisbane may be rather densely populated australia as a whole is one of the least densely populated countries on earth i think we can all agree this is a positive thing as who would want to live in a crowded congested place australia has roughly 3.3 people per kilometers squared making it the sixth most sparsely populated country on earth western australia is even lower at just 2.5 people per kilometers squared perth the main city of western australia is one of if not the most isolated city in the world the nearest city with a population of over 100 000 is adelaide over 2100 kilometers away number nine the lifestyle the australian lifestyle favors the enjoyment of free time with family friends sports and contact with nature work is a fundamental value of society but must be accompanied by the necessary time for rest and recreational activities the majority of australia experiences fantastic weather year rounds meaning that barbecues outdoor socializing and swims in the sea are a part of everyday life try doing that in the uk in the middle of january you will end up with hypothermia number eight high minimum wage and great salaries nowhere else in the world would you get such a high minimum wage when you compare the minimum wage of australians to any other country you would find that the pay rate is more than ten dollars higher than the competitor countries this includes large countries like the uk the us france and any other country in between jobs that pay quite decently in the uk are usually super highly paid in australia especially jobs in construction and finance number seven high health score australia is one of the world's healthiest countries for several different reasons australia offers its people one of the world's best health care systems it has one of the lowest infant mortality scores and a high life expectancy smoking is low in australia too with a continuously declining number of smokers the vitamin d that they get from the sunshine surely must be a factor too being outside being active and healthy in the sun is a lot better for your mental and physical health than staying indoors in the freezing cold dark nights like we have in the winter in the uk number six the beaches where else in the world can you go to a new beach every day and it will take you 27 years if you want to accomplish that well that's australia for you there's so many beaches it would take you 27 years to visit every beach if you visited one every single day what is more an aussie beach is hard to beat from the magnificent city beaches to the pumping surf of the unspoiled wild and natural beaches every beach is a contender to be better than any other beach in the rest of the world number five major attractions it is impossible to live in australia and wonder where you could go for your next vacation because there's so many choices this country certainly has it all from sydney to melbourne to the great barrier reef to the giant lake the majestic outback and the unblemished beauty of the northern territory you will love australia australia has something for everyone number four it has every type of climate and terrain from mountains to beaches to rainforests to deserts quite similar to the usa australia is so big it has every type of climate and terrain there is to offer there is no need to leave your country if your country offers everything the world has to offer for example in the uk we do have beaches and forests but we certainly do not have those tropical beaches that australia offers number three the people in my opinion aussies are friendlier than most other citizens from around the world sometimes even too friendly some say it's the weather others say it's the carefree attitude the aussie motto is she'll be right which means don't stress it's all good in australia you're someone's mate until proven otherwise this includes your boss as well as that annoying next-door neighbor you'll be amazed by the welcoming and laid-back nature of the natives aussies and brits are like two brothers they do argue and they fall out sometimes but deep down we really do like each other number two tasmania has the world's cleanest air the north western tip of tasmania on the cape grim peninsula is where you'll find the cleanest air in the world this is because the air is cleaned while it travels for thousands of kilometers over the ocean before arriving at the tasmanian coast heck it's so good they even sell cans and bottles of air to other countries who have polluted air and finally number one wildlife australia horse a high biodiversity compared to other regions in the world it has very unique wildlife such as kangaroos koalas quakers and many more native animals and plants are waiting for you these squirrels in london's hyde park are adorable but would you miss the opportunity to meet kangaroos hug a koala or take a quacker selfie on rottnest island off the coast of perth yes australia is home to deadly creepy crawlies and snakes but they are extremely rare in urban areas so there we have it 10 reasons why we think australia is the best country in the world of course just like any other country in the world it's not perfect it does have some drawbacks but we believe that australia ranks highly in so many different areas thank you so much for watching have a great week and we'll see you soon and of course remember to like and subscribe if you want to see more we've got plenty more to come thanks so much again and we'll see you soon | The Geography Bible | UC4lnpEse_SnqheLmcbbumig | 2021-05-11 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed)

XRDJCZkpGfA | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XRDJCZkpGfA | 02 Machine (Robert Cowherd CC BY) City13 | city as a cosmos is dominated by form and formalism form is the dominant factor city as a machine which is this lecture is dominated dominated by the operation of one or more systems and the city as an organism is dominated by a set of forces that are small relative to the other two it's not a singular preconceived form it is not the operation of a system it is actually something at a more molecular level like the DNA of an organism that there is a code embedded in social or other relationships that naturally generates formal relationships that are characterized by a sense of emergence and so formalism system and emergence are the three characteristics of design that we are talking about in the context of cities but those three the one of the reasons why I'm emphasizing this in this version of this course is that these three aspects are increasingly a very conscious aspect of architectural design after a period of which in which form was the be-all and end-all of everything a lot of Architects are experimenting with the idea of systems that are having a greater impact on the design process especially architects who are exploring the areas of landscape urbanism or other areas of urbanism where the urban systems have an influence on what the design with the designer proposes and then the third thing the more organic or emergent aspects of design have recently become very important to many people and that can be seen in the rise of parametric design methods also the engagements people designers have had in disaster relief or informal settlements in the developing world and so in that context we delve into our second paradigm which is the city as a machine and we go back to Greece and the city of my latest despite the fact that this site is extremely irregular a very difficult topography a very non orthogonal form of a peninsula this city is laid out according to a grid pattern now why would why would a grid pattern be the pattern that is favored even though the topography is so difficult and you can see it blown up here in this joint I think of San Francisco why does San Francisco of all places have a grid pattern and so that's the key question to bear in mind as we move forward some if no one had ever invented the grid we would invent it cities didn't emerge from one place and then spread cities emerged in multiple places they emerged in the sense of they organically were produced because of the needs of the local population and local situation the most famous gridded city and gridded civilization that we study in the history of architecture is wrong and Rome's grid is a very specific grid and it had a huge impact globally especially in Europe so even though the grid system has so many natural advantages that if we didn't know about it we would invent it it's kind of like the wheel the wheel is very useful because there are corners and so it lied smoothly over even a rough terrain similarly and in a way the opposite grids are extremely useful because they generate regularity and they have advantages that outweigh other geometric forms of settlement the specific historical grid of the Roman system starts with the these grid under the cardo and the decumanus crossing at the center of Roman idealized Roman settlements and even when the dominant form is internally a grid the exterior boundaries are often not and so even though this is the idealized form of the Roman settlement often Roman settlements ended up being not bounded by a grid the brilliant invention of the geometry of the grid was in part due to the Roman system of serving in which they used a groma this device in order to establish through sight lines the grid across the surface of the earth and one of the things that is key to many of the principles of both architecture and urban form is that light and vision travels in straight lines you knew that when you were 2 years old it's important to continue to know that but now that we're in college to be able to talk about it light and vision travels and straight lines when a street is straight you can see from one end to the other when it curves you can't it's as simple as that it's an extremely powerful phenomenon of our experience Rome itself is a lousy example of Roman planning it's seven hills there's a whole mythology around the relationship between the hills there's the Vatican they definitely use sight lines to organize what they do but it's basically a mess so it became important to when extending its impact its power and control of a larger territory that the Romans establish a pattern that can be easily replicated and so the form of the Roman camp followed the ideal versions of the Cardo the decumanus and the grid pattern that forms around it and at the center of many especially European cities that were once settled by the Romans at the center to this very day you can still see the imprint embedded in the city of the original Roman encampment on the river at the crossing this all came much later and so this is true in Florence it's true this is Florence you can see the original position of the Roman encampment and the cardo and deco man is still imprinted on the city northern Africa you can see everywhere where the Romans had military control and they basically established colonies I'm really sorry some of these slides got too small they basically establish a road system and a water aqueduct system that is across the Mediterranean world reaching as far north as Scotland and is in into northern Africa and so it was a vast terror centered on the Mediterranean that the Romans conquered and continued to control in part through their infrastructure now their infrastructure was simultaneously pragmatic and it was a profound undeniable demonstration of Roman power they established their grids across the landscape and and the grid continues to be evident in the agricultural lands of Italy because the original lines of demarcation are still there but they demonstrated their divine power in that they created they were capable of creating geometric perfection through the use of the drama they established a geometrically perfect form on the surface of the planet thereby clearly demonstrating their superiority over all other races and societies and so they quickly came to dominate in part because of this power oh this is disappointing there we go so part of this so this is David and Callie's view David and colleagues and architect graduate of wrist Eve's become famous writing supposedly children's books but full of insights in terms of these types of things the Roman encampment would have its idealized form Mikado and decumanus the gateways out would aim towards the other settlements and so even when if we went back and looked at the views of Florence and London and other places that have ancient Roman settlements at the centre of their cities you will be able to identify where the gates of the former walled city was because the die streets of the city continue to converge on the former locations of the gateways so when you travel to Europe with friends or your parents you can look at a map and say there used to be a gate here there used to be a wall here because you can see in the map that's where the diagonals of the streets come together and meet and so the idealized Roman encampment becomes a permanent settlement and then becomes embedded at the core of a town sometimes the encampment came first sometimes it came later and the streets were were adjusted there are architectural of uses building types that characterized the Roman town Thermae baths the forum the market the theatre and also the aqueduct system was crucial and I hope we have yes we do the aqueduct was another remarkable achievement of engineering that this time rather than creating a perfect geometry on the horizontal plane it is a perfect geometry that creates the ability to transport water across long distances even through over mountains it's a remarkable system that very carefully controls the rate at which water flows so it doesn't erode the masonry yet it needs to flow fast enough to maintain forward motion to supply the cities at the proper rate and to prevent stagnation and so the pitch of these aqueducts were very scientifically measured and very carefully produced through a extraordinary system of innovations the street system of the Roman city also had a lot to do with dream this is the original zebra crosswalk there were basically stepping stones for when the streets were flooded and the streets were part of the drainage system that many cities of the world still struggled to achieve this level of sophistication that was part of the Roman system here we go they engineered roads that were built to last they invented the crown in the street that leads water to the edges that we still use all this the identical profile when they created a road system that covered northern Africa the entire Mediterranean world and deep into the United Kingdom you can still see those roads in modern-day maps they were a primary factor in Wars and conquests this is just a map of some random place in Italy it still refers to the Roman Road and the grids that emerge off of the Roman Road now we go to the United States what is a good reason to use a grid well when you design a building for a rectangular lot that is 25 feet wide and 100 feet deep you have automatically designed a building that fits on every lot that is 25 feet wide and 100 feet deep and so it's an extremely efficient mode of mass production so when is the form of a city or the mapping of a territory a mechanism of mass production it's a mechanism mass production when it is a grid people Jefferson was the first one to propose the grid system for the continental United States and it was eventually established in this territory and became a dominant system of that of miles measured in miles and acres quarter sections it's a very elaborate system and it it depends on very strict set of monuments that establish the corners that you still see embedded the towns we already found out that no one is from the Midwest but if you were from the Midwest or if you spend any time there you would be able to identify this pattern wherever you go and this was the pattern of selling land so this land was sold to people who never saw it this system of the grid allowed land to be sold in the land markets in Chicago or New York or Philadelphia before anyone had ever been near it so people could purchase land without ever seen the system is highly codified and the baselines that create the reference points for the maintenance establishment maintenance of these grids are located are very important locations sometimes they are centered on mountains but it allows people to confirm the limits of the land across vast distances and so when you fly over the United States you see the outcome and this is an interesting relationship between mapping the abstractions of mapping and the natural landscape and in a way it reverses the traditional system it used to be that what we do is we we look at the landscape and we map the natural features and register it on maps this is a reversal of that this is we take the abstraction of mapping and we impose that on the landscape no matter what physical features refined and we also have to accommodate the fact that the earth is a curved surface and so there has to be these corrective jogs in the road system in the United States that results in hundreds of deaths every year but this is the abstraction as imposed on the physical surface of the earth and you will find these markers everywhere throughout cities across the nation it's illegal to remove these markers because these are the markers that establish this order that is part of the machinery

FgMXyueUbkM | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FgMXyueUbkM | The one brand I DIDN'T EXPECT this from | you know sometimes we ignore clubs just because they aren't from the top brands but still products get ignored from top brands and that's when they perhaps built a reputation in a specific market area so therefore when they release something that they're not quite known for or we still choose to ignore them i reckon that's a big mistake certainly in today's video you see if i mention a brand like mizuno then the first thing you're going to think about well it's going to be irons cobalt said and whilst mizuno's reputation has certainly grown in recent years in terms of their driver and the fairway woods i would argue that they're making a few products that are definitely going under the radar a little bit unnoticed and they're probably some of the best in the business now i've got to say that um over the last couple of years that a statement i never thought i would make and that is that mizuno putters are very much the real deal right now only two years ago did i first try a mizuno putter and this is the kind of second iteration if you like and i've got to say they're really really impressive and in today's video i'm going to tell you why you shouldn't be overlooking these things now i rarely feature any putters on this channel and there's got to be a good reason to do so so stick around and i can assure you that what i'm about to tell you about the mizuno in terms of the technology that's built into it is really interesting there's also some negatives that i will also reveal that are in my opinion but seriously this is a putter range that was well worth a video let's put it that way right okay so like i said second iteration of what was the m craft putters as far as i've seen at least anyway and these are the m craft moi i know that's one word you're supposed to say i have no idea how that's pronounced all i do know is first of all let's have a look at these things because they look incredibly good they're milled from 1025 forged steel the face milling on the front and the detail and the precision of that milling is so so pretty they look superb there's three models to choose from in terms of the head shape and in terms of the head shape there are three different color options so there is a very reduced range if you like and i'll talk about that later but first of all i think we can all agree these are some of the best looking putters that i've ever seen come to market right so the first thing to discuss is just how good these things feel as you would expect nothing feels like a mizuno in terms of the irons well i can also tell you nothing quite feels like their 10 25 mil steel in terms of off that putter face it's super soft which was the thing that really drew my attention to last year's model the three models silver blue and black they all have a very much a specific exact color name to them but they all are a really really nice finish and that's going to be very much what suits your personal eye read that one wrong hand but there's a couple of things that are really interesting to me first of all it is a very much a forgiving putter and the way they've done that is they've increased the weight their head mass and to do that they've reduced the weight in the grip and also in the shaft so that you certainly do feel the putter down at address that is one significant thing that they have done and what they claim that does it makes the putter ultra stable in terms of its weight but then you'll notice these things on the bottom you see with every purchase of putter you get one of these little kits and inside of there you'll get a little tool which will remove those weights the standard weight you'll see in your putter is eight grams but you get the option of two three gram weights and two 13 gram weights and they can make a considerable difference obviously to the weight of the put ahead and change how it feels in your hands so i love the idea of that little kit that gives that bit of customizability to a putter you see the thing is for me golf is very much about individual requirement individual needs and what that weighting system does is allow you to very much build that putter to a headway to a swing weight to very much your own custom needs now one thing i'm going to show you is the three models each have very much a different sort of toe hang and it's a considerable difference from very much a sort of face balance mallet to some severe toe hang there in in the opposite end of the spectrum and each of those will obviously uh well suit a particular type of putting stroke go out roll out roll out oh for me personally i would always be the sort of mallet style and that's very much a sort of straight back straight through put in style and the more toe hang depends on that sort of curve and arc in your swing path so they cover each of the bases but in a minimal way and that is perhaps one of the negatives as well and i see one of the negatives because in fact in my opinion there are two so the first being that uh limited choice in terms of options very much three classic style arguably two style of putter heads yes there's a change in the color and a change in the neck but that's very limited when you compare to some of the bigger boys and the choices that they offer you could argue that that's where mizuno are just going to fall down a little and they're very much classic in terms of their their sight lines and their alignment age there's nothing fancy going on there they're classic style putters and arguably again people sometimes just want a little bit more assistance in terms of alignment and the final negative for me is the price point they're coming in at 269 and for me that's a high high price point even though looking at each of them the quality of the build is superb i can understand how mizuno might justify that price in terms of the quality of the product but they're trying to get into this marketplace as far as i'm concerned and to do that i think they need to be a little bit keener in terms of what the end user pays in terms of that price point oh no actually just gone through to the back fringe playing proper links fiery conditions here at garden park right now fast and firm anyway enough of my game about the putters i said i rarely do a review on putters only if they really are something just a little bit special and a little bit different and i think they're probably both they're really special in terms of their build quality quality the way they're put together they feel absolutely superb look really really good and without repeating this whole video again my only negatives are like i said about the price point um and perhaps the limited amount of options they've got but certainly for me if you put head to head any of these putters against some of the premium putter lines out there mizunos would stand tall i'm telling you now they're really really impressive in terms of how these have been put together so if you're considering buying a putter if you're willing to shell out that sort of 269 and upwards price then i would certainly put these into the mix right thank you for watching i'm going to finish off and see if we can hold that one up for birdie and that last few holes here at cardone park thank you for watching and i'll see you all very soon | The Average Golfer | UCwfGb-FXG66ZCRrS-VMc4oA | 2022-07-25 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 1,404 | 7,299 |
93GJXq1XDjE | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=93GJXq1XDjE | Georgetown University | Wikipedia audio article | Georgetown University is a private research university in the Georgetown neighborhood of Washington DC founded in 1789 as Georgetown College the university has grown to comprise nine undergraduate and graduate schools among which are the School of Foreign Service School of Business Medical School and law school located on a hill above the Potomac River the school's main campus is identifiable by its flagship Healey Hall a National Historic Landmark Georgetown offers degree programs in 48 disciplines enrolling an average of 7500 undergraduate and 10,000 postgraduate students from more than 130 countries Georgetown is the oldest Catholic and Jesuit affiliated institution of higher education in the United States the Jesuits have participated in the university's academic life both as scholars and as administrators since 1805 however the university has always been governed independently of the church the majority of Georgetown students are not Catholic Georgetown's notable alumni include US President Bill Clinton US Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia CIA director George Tenet and King Philippe of Spain as well as the royalty and heads of state of more than a dozen countries in 2015 Georgetown had 1190 alumni working as diplomats for the u.s. Foreign Service more than any other University in 2014 Georgetown ranked second in the nation by the average number of graduates serving in the US Congress Georgetown is also a top feeder school for careers in consulting finance and investment banking on Wall Street Georgetown is home to the country's largest student-run business largest student-run financial institution the oldest continuously running student theatre troupe and one of the oldest debating societies in the United States the school's athletic teams are nicknamed the Hoyas and include a men's basketball team that has won a record-tying 7 Big East championships appeared in five Final Fours and won a national championship in 1984 the university also has a co-ed sailing team that holds 13 national champions chips in One World Championship title topic history you topic founding Jesuit settlers from England founded the province of Maryland in 1634 however the 1646 defeat of the Royalists in the English Civil War led to stringent laws against Roman Catholic education and the extradition of known Jesuits from the colony including missionary Andrew white and the destruction of their school at Calverton Manor during most of the remainder of Maryland's colonial period Jesuits conducted Catholic schools clandestinely it was not until after the end of the American Revolution that plans to establish a permanent Catholic institution for education in the United States were realized because of Benjamin Franklin's recommendation Pope Pius the sixth appointed former Jesuit John Carroll as the first head of the Roman Catholic Church in the United States even though the papal suppression of the Jesuit Order was still in effect Carroll began meetings of local clergy in 1783 near Annapolis Maryland where they orchestrated the development of a new university On January 23rd 1789 Carroll finalized the purchase of the property in Georgetown on which dagger and quadrangle was later built future congressman William Gaston was enrolled as the school's first student on November 22nd 1791 an instruction began on January 2nd 1792 during its early years Georgetown College suffered from considerable financial strain the Maryland Society of Jesus began its restoration in 1805 and Jesuit affiliation in the form of teachers and administrators bolstered confidence in the college the school relied on private sources of funding and the limited profits from local lands which had been donated to the Jesuits to raise money for Georgetown and other schools in 1838 Maryland Jesuits conducted a mass sale of some 272 slaves to to deep south plantations in Maringa Louisiana from there six in Maryland ending their slave holding President James Madison signed into law Georgetown's congressional charter on March 1st 1815 creating the first federal university charter which allowed it to confer degrees with the first bachelor's degrees being a war two years later in 1844 the school received a corporate charter under the name the president and directors of Georgetown College affording the growing school additional legal rights in response to the demand for a local option for Roman Catholic students the medical school was founded in 1851 topic civil war the u.s. Civil War greatly affected Georgetown is 1141 students in alumni enlisted in one army or the other and the Union Army commandeered university buildings by the time of President Abraham Lincoln's May 1861 visit to campus 1,400 troops were living in temporary quarters there due to the number of lives lost in the war enrollment levels remained low until well after the war only 7 students graduated in 1869 down from over 300 in the previous decade when the Georgetown College Boat Club the school's rowing team was founded in 1876 it adopted two colors blue used for Union uniforms and gray used for Confederate uniforms these colors signified the peaceful unity among students subsequently the school adopted these as its official colors enrollment did not recover until during the presidency of Patrick Francis Healey from 1873 to 1881 born in Georgia as a slave by law and mixed-race by ancestry Healy was the first head of a predominantly white American University of acknowledged African descent he identified his Irish Catholic like his father and was educated in Catholic schools in the United States and France he is credited with reforming the undergraduate curriculum lengthening the medical and law programs and creating the Alumni Association one of his largest undertakings was the construction of a major new building subsequently named Healey Hall in his honor for his work Healy is known as the school's second founder topic expansion after the founding of the law department in 1870 Healy and his successors hoped to bind the professional schools into a university and focus on higher education the School of Medicine added a dental school in 1901 in the undergraduate School of Nursing in 1903 Georgetown Preparatory School relocated from campus in 1919 and fully separated from the University in 1927 the School of Foreign Service s FS was founded in 1919 by Edmund a Walsh to prepare students for leadership in diplomacy and foreign commerce the School of Dentistry became independent of the School of Medicine in 1956 the School of Business was separated from the S FS in 1957 in 1998 it was renamed the McDonough School of Business in honor of alumnus Robert E McDonough besides expansion of the university Georgetown also aimed to expand its resources and student body the School of Nursing has admitted female students since its founding and most of the university classes were made available to them on a limited basis by 1952 with the College of Arts and Sciences welcoming its first female students in the 1969 1970 academic year Georgetown became fully co-educational topic modern-era Georgetown ended its bicentennial year of 1989 by electing Leo Jo Donovan SJ as president he subsequently launched the third century campaign to build the school's endowment in December 2003 Georgetown completed the campaign after raising over 1 billion dollars for financial aid academic chair endowment and new capital projects John J Dodd Julia Georgetown's first lay president has led the school since 2001 de julia has continued its financial modernization in has sought to expand opportunities for intercultural and inter-religious dialogue in 2005 Georgetown received a twenty million dollars gift from a Saudi businessman there too for the second largest donation ever to the University to promote the study of Islam in the Muslim world it was used to expand the activities of the Prince Alwaleed bin Talal Center for Muslim Christian understanding in October 2002 Georgetown University began studying the feasibility of opening a campus of the Edmund a Walsh School of Foreign Service in Qatar when the nonprofit Qatar Foundation first proposed the idea the School of Foreign Service in Qatar opened in 2005 along with four other US universities in the education city development that same year Georgetown began hosting a two-week workshop at Fudan University school of international relations and public affairs in Shanghai China this later developed into a more formal connection when Georgetown opened a liaison office at foodon on January 12 2008 to further collaboration de julia also founded the annual building bridges seminar in 2001 which brings global religious leaders together and is part of Georgetown's effort to promote religious pluralism the Berkeley Center for religion peace and world affairs was begun as an initiative in 2004 and after a grant from William R Berkley was launched as an independent organization in 2006 additionally the Center for international and regional studies opened in 2005 at the new Qatar campus you topic Jesuit tradition Georgetown University was founded by former Jesuits in the tradition of Ignatius of Loyola it is a member of the Association of Jesuit colleges and universities Georgetown is not a Pontifical University though seven Jesuits serve on the 36 member Board of Directors the school's highest governance Catholic spaces at the University fall within the territorial jurisdiction of the Archdiocese of Washington such as dal green Chapel the university's principal Catholic place of worship 52 members of the Society of Jesus live on campus and are employed by Georgetown mostly as professors or administrators Jesuit heritage week has been held every year since 2001 to celebrate the contributions of Jesuits to the Georgetown tradition the role that Georgetown's Catholic heritage has played in its policies has been controversial at times even as its influence is relatively limited stores and university owned buildings are not allowed to sell or distribute birth-control products the university hosts the Cardinal O'Connor conference on life every January to discuss the pro-life movement Georgetown University Medical Center in Georgetown University Hospital operated by MedStar health are prohibited from performing abortions however as of 2004 the hospital did perform research using embryonic stem cells Georgetown has been criticized by religious groups such as the Cardinal Newman Society for not following the teachings of the church the school has come under particularly strong criticism for hosting prominent pro-choice speakers such as John Kerry and Barack Obama Washington's Archbishop Donald Wuerl also criticized the University for inviting pro-choice Kathleen Sebelius to be a commencement speaker religious groups have likewise denounced Georgetown for being too LGBT friendly and for allowing provocative gay themed events including a performance during which a male student went as a high-heeled Mary and danced to Madonna's like a virgin while Jesus a woman looked on between 1996 and 1999 the administration added crucifixes too many classroom walls a change that attracted national attention before 1996 crucifixes had hung only in hospital rooms and historic classrooms some of these crucifixes our historic works of art and are noted as such according to a mom Yahya Hendy the school's on-campus Muslim cleric pressure to remove the crucifixes comes from within the Catholic community while he and other campus faith leaders have defended their placement the intercultural Center is an exception to this controversy rotating displays of various faiths and culture symbols in the lobby in 2009 Georgetown's religious symbols were brought back to national attention after the university administration covered up the name of jesus in preparation for President Barack Obama's speech on campus topic academics as of 2014 the university has seven thousand six hundred thirty six undergraduate students in ten thousand two hundred thirteen graduate students bachelors programs are offered through Georgetown College the School of Nursing and Health Studies the Robert Emmet McDonough School of Business the School of Continuing Studies and the Edmund a Walsh School of Foreign Service which includes the Qatar Campus the School of Dentistry closed in 1990 after 89 years in operation some high school students from Georgetown visitation are permitted to attend classes for Advanced Placement credit Georgetown University offers undergraduate degrees in 48 majors in the four undergraduate schools as well as the opportunity for students to design their courses of study all majors in the college are open as minors to students in the College the School of Nursing and Health Studies and the School of Business students in the School of Foreign Service can complete select certificates which complement the school's focus on Foreign Affairs and attained a minor in one of 12 languages but do not have

OYFjIC96IDE | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OYFjIC96IDE | Scooby-Doo on Zombie Island movie review w/ Andrew Hays | so on September 22nd 2018 scooby-doo on Zombie Island has turned 20 years old and because it is Halloween and because it turned 20 years old why not make this both a Halloween and anniversary review [Music] hey everybody this is 22 Tiger dude here and welcome to bursary reviews where I review a movie and celebration of a certain anniversary that it has reached and the movie I'm gonna be reviewing is scooby-doo on Zombie Island so scooby-doo on Zombie Island is by its three directors and I hope I pronounce these names right but it is directed by hero Sheen Oriana Kazumi Fukushima and Jim Stenstrom so scooby-doo on Zombie Island is about when the mystery Incorporated gang they've gone their separate ways because they just got bored of mystery solving Fred and Daphne the writing this television series Velma is working at this mystery bookstore and Scooby and Shaggy you know they're doing their own thing to say the least and since it is Daphne's birthday Fred reunites the gang and so the gang is back together and because Daphne wants to do a story at this island that is apparently haunted they go over there and let's just say when they are on this island there are more things than they expected to really discover while they're there so before I do review scooby-doo on Zombie Island I did bring in a guest ER and that guest star is none other than Andrew Hayes so Andrew you take it away dude what is going on guys Andrew Hayes here and before it gets started on my review I've got to thank my boy 22 Tiger dude thanks man definitely want to be a lot of fun reviewing this and you know scooby-doo on Zombie Island is something that I watched a lot as a kid it is war was going to be very interesting you know to watch this again it definitely a lot of fun watching this again as I haven't seen it in years but anyway scooby-doo on Zombie Island is the first of a long-running series of directed video scooby-doo movies this one I came out in 1998 so that was over 20 years ago and I they're still making these direct-to-video scooby-doo films today the first four is what I consider to be you know its own series you know this one was the first one and the one after that was Rich's ghost and then alien invasion and then cyber chase those were like the real four ones that I watched a lot as a kid and definitely you know before that I think most people consider to be you know the ones that everybody remembers like I said it was very fun revisiting this because I haven't seen it in years I was wondering if I would still feel the same way as I did and I gotta say yes I did feel the same way I definitely had a lot of fun with this I still love it like I did you know when I was a kid you know some odd years ago and I I definitely loved what they did with this movie and again what I I think the big thing why I like what they did was that they present a real threat in this movie the threat is something supernatural this time it's not fake or anything it is something supernatural and I think that added a nice twist to things and I like how they were all like you know we want something real like that's why we do this we want to see real ghosts real ghouls but every time it ended up being fake and I like that aspect of it and I think that really added to the movie and to the characters I and you know for and for this one to be something supernatural and whatnot I think really added a ton to the movie I love the way the characters are portrayed especially you know Scooby and Shaggy everybody really but especially them I think that though those two have always been my favorites and I just loved seeing them in this film and they really made me laugh and smile and all these things in the movie you know they start off in the movie they start off as they're like airports they work for airport security and you know they Scooby sniffs out you know cheese and whatnot and they eat it all and no they get fired because of that and you know shaggy is upset about it goes this is the best cake we ever had free food this that and the other thing and I really really thought that was funny and you know seeing them get scared by a bunch of stuff you know there's a montage in the beginning of the film when they first get back together and investigating before they go to the bayou they investigate all this other stuff you know for real ghosts but that all's ends up being fake and each one you know Scooby and Shaggy are like really really scared but they somehow inadvertently figure out that it's fake and I just thought that montage was fantastic and there's a couple montages in this movie and they're all really good but that one in particular really well you know they go to New Orleans and meet various different characters Lina Simone Jacques beau snakebite scrubs all characters and I really enjoy them they really add a lot to the story and when everything comes you know out and everything is revealed they really add a lot to it and the mystery and whatnot and you really are invested from the story at least roommate because I really want to know what's going on because you know this is the first time that something has happened that seems real and it is real in the story and I love this I love this movie as a whole it really brought back a lot of memories for me and I'm a huge fan of the scooby-doo franchise I love you know I think it brought justice to everybody and I think it still holds up for a 20 year animated movie and I absolutely loved it I would give this an A+ if you're a fan of the scooby-doo franchise please check this out because this is definitely one of the best animated movies I would say and I definitely want to check out the other ones now expecially like the next three you know the name the set of four I really want to check those out but um anyways thank you guys for listening to my review and thank you to 20 to Tiger dude for having me on here please subscribe to my channel comment like subscribe my videos on my channel all that kind of fun stuff you know and I'll check you back out on my channel thanks 22 Tiger dude it's been a pleasure thank you so much Andrew Hayes for reviewing scooby-doo on Zombie Island so scooby-doo on Zombie Island is a film I remember watching as a kid that's from the movie itself I don't remember a whole lot of it I do just remember watching it as a kid I remember watching stuff like this or cyberchase all these other directed Duty movies back in the day and this is actually the first of the scooby-doo director Duty movies so this is kind of cool for me to really review the first directed Duty movie because I don't recall ever reviewing a scooby-doo movie on this channel until now and I figured because this movie did turn 20 years old I give to revisit and see if I enjoyed it as much as I remember and join it when I was a kid because when I was a kid I was a huge scooby-doo fan and I do still like scooby-doo Tuesday I have to say I still really enjoyed the movie it's still a ton of fun definitely the perfect movie to watch when it comes to Halloween start off with the animation I think the animation is absolutely beautiful this is a direct-to-dvd movie and that's some of the best traditional animation I've seen for a direct-to-dvd movie it's like character designs when they go on this remote island the details of that remote island it looks absolutely gorgeous and when we get to some of the designs of the creatures such as you know the zombies and whatever other creature you may encounter on without really spoiling anything it's designed very well I did really enjoy how this movie was animated and I know traditional animation it takes a lot of time it is a skill that you have to be kind of patient with but I think the animation really is pulled out very well here and I have to really admire it and considering this is a film that is directed by three directors as I've already said earlier I have to say these three directors did a really good job directing the movie I really was so into this world from the moment the movie opened I was already interested in the story from the moment it opened and it's very well paced - it's only one hour 17 minutes it's a 77 minute long movie it's really not that long and they don't waste any time in my opinion I felt that they really did a good job of keeping things interesting even if I already know how it's eventually gonna go and it's third act I still think that it was very interesting I thought it had a very well-written story going for it and I did really like how this film played with the supernatural element that's what I feel made scooby-doo in Zombie Island very creative us how much they really play with the supernatural what is real on this island what is fake on this island what can you really believe is happening on this island and I did like how this even changed around the forming lot like whereas we're used to seeing the gang solve like who is behind that mask who is the one wearing the mask like who did it there's nothing like that this time around there's no okay who is that person behind that mask there is nothing like that they actually change around the formula this time around and I have to say it worked it was actually very cool to get something like that like when the movie opens yes it does have that usual like Oki that typical scooby-doo stuff which I really enjoyed I really did enjoy how the movie opened but then you know the gang went their own separate ways for a while then they reunited and then they go on to this island and yeah they kind of did change around the formula for what we were used to seeing us we do and just as I've already said it was all very well done it's what really added the enjoyment of this movie for me and the voice acting is really terrific here too I thought everyone did a very great job playing their own roles I thought Scott Innes did a really good job as scooby-doo a lot of energy he brings a lot of personality to the character and I have to really give him a lot of credit for that Billy West is great at shaggy like you can't really go wrong with him as his character he really is just so top notch when it comes to shaggy Shaggy and Scooby you know I personally think there are some of the best duo's just ever television movies whatever I love these two as a duo Mary Kay Bergman did a very good job as Daphne there was a lot of energy within her voice performance Frank Welker is also fantastic as Fred he really is just so good here and Fred is a character I did very much enjoy in this movie BJ Ward did a very good job as Velma really joy Velma here too I don't want to really talk about other characters because I feel like it'll spoil something that you've seen the story but all I'll say is the other voice actors that voice these other characters whether they're minor are kind of big they all do a very good job Mark Hamill yes Mark Hamill is in this film I'm not gonna say who he voices but when I found out it was him I was actually kind of speechless because wow like the fact that Mark Hamill is in the scooby-doo movie I think that's so awesome and he definitely did a very good job here Tara Strong who is credited as Tara chair end off in this movie I thought she was also really good Jim Cummings is also in this movie she does a very good job and it is just so cool to see the mystery gang back together it is a very good job of showing you what life has been like for them after they've stopped solving mysteries for a while and to see him come back together that was really nice music as usual with these scooby-doo movies I also think it's really great I thought whoever composed music for this feature did a very well-done job the script is very well done the gang does a very good job of interacting with each other as well as how they interact with other characters that we run into along with the movie and to this movies credit one character that I thought was gonna be like oh it's so obvious like this movie really had me thinking oh yeah it's obvious that this character is bad but then you learn later on that the certain character isn't as bad as you may think and I think have you seen this movie you know which character I'm talking about to its credit actually did a good job of actually turning the tables around and make me going oh okay so that was unpredictable right there that was the one elements film that I thought was actually unpredictable as far as issues I did find with this movie um definitely really got on my nerves and that tends to happen with Daphne sometimes there's times where I really like Daphne and there's other times where she does get on my nerves and in this movie she did get on my nerves and it's my biggest glaring issue honestly with this movie it's definitely Daphne because she's working for this television series and all she is focused on is the story it was her attitude towards the game that just personally really bothered me I get that she wants to get the story now but she didn't have to talk to the gang the way she did and then also my other issue is you know the cliche where fred is jealous of Daphne or of course Daphne gets jealous of Fred you know that whole thing and I don't think that had to really be there also the twist that they take what the third act was very predictable even though I was interested in the star granite and it was very well written I was able to see where it was going and the twist was extremely obvious and as soon as we do get introduced to these characters in the movie these certain characters are really up to no good the movie did make it obvious there so yeah it is obvious in terms of where they were leading towards that third act aside from that though before I do forget the third act is a ton of fun that's definitely where even though I had a lot of fun with the movie leading up to the third act I definitely had the most fun when it came to the third act it had some really spooky imagery going for it there's this element in this film without going too deep into it that deal with voodoo dolls and I really really enjoyed how they played with that aspect that probably is my favorite aspect about this movie overall scooby-doo on Zombie Island is the perfect movie to watch around this time of the year it's been a long time since I seen it but revisiting that recently for its 20th anniversary I really enjoyed it I really got a huge kick out of the movie I enjoyed the story even if I was able to see where it was gonna lead to towards its start act the animation is great the direction is really great and there's some really creative imagery that goes on there's a lot of creative things in general with this movie that I don't want to spoil it's one of those things where I am trying to be careful with how I talk about this movie because where they do go with the story is actually very creative and I am going to give scooby-doo on Zombie Island three out of four stars so everyone and the comments down below let me know what you think about scooby-doo on Zombie Island happy 20th anniversary - this film can't believe it's 20 years old and what is your favorite scooby-doo movie and I also want to give a big thank you to Andrew Hayes this is my first collaboration with him and it was a lot of fun collaborating with Andrew thank you so much

PWDECfGh_qQ | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PWDECfGh_qQ | Land reforms in India | Wikipedia audio article | agrarian reform and land reform have been a recurring theme of enormous consequence in world history they are often highly political and have been achieved or attempted in many countries topic Latin America you topic Brazil Jew Tulio Vargas who rose to presidency in Brazil following the Brazilian revolution of 1932 missed a land reform but reneged on his promise a first attempt to make a nationwide reform was set up in the government of josé Sarney 1985 to 1990 as a result of the strong popular movement that had contributed to the fall of the military government according to the 1988 constitution of Brazil the government is required to expropriate for the purpose of agrarian reform rural property that is not performing its social function Article 184 however the social function mentioned there is not well defined and hence the so called first land reform national plan never was put into force throughout the 1990s the landless workers movement has led a strong campaign on favor of fulfilling the constitutional requirement to land reform they also took direct action by forceful occupation of unused lands their campaign has managed to get some advances for the past 10 years during the Fernando Cardozo and Lula da Silva administrations it is overseen by the National Institute for colonisation and agrarian reform topic Bolivia land in Bolivia was unequally distributed 92% of the cultivable land was held by large estates until the bolivian national revolution in 1952 then the revolutionary nationalist movement government abolished forced peasantry labor and established a program of expropriation and distribution of the rural property of the traditional landlords to the indigenous peasants a unique feature of the reform in Bolivia was the organization of peasants into syndicates peasants were not only granted land but their militias also were given large supplies of arms the peasants remained a powerful political force in Bolivia during all subsequent governments by 1970 45% of peasant families had received title to land land reform projects continued in the 1970s and 1980s a 1996 agrarian reform law increased protection for small holdings and indigenous territories but also protected absentee land holders who pay taxes from X procreation reforms were continued at 2006 with the Bolivian Senate passing a bill authorizing the government redistribution of land among the nation's mostly indigenous poor topic Chile attempts at land reform began under the government of Jorge lissandra in 1960 were accelerated during the government of Eduardo Frei Montalvo 1964 to 1970 and reached its climax during the 1972 1973 presidency of Salvador Allende farms of more than one hundred ninety-eight acres 80 hectares were expropriated after the 1973 coup the process was halted and up to a point reversed by the market forces topic Colombia Alfonso Lopez Puma Rijo 1934 to 1938 past lot 200 of 1936 which allowed for the expropriation of private properties in order to promote social interest later attempts declined until the National Front presidencies of Alberto leras Camargo 1958 to 1962 in Carlos Clara's Restrepo 1966 to 1970 which respectively created the Colombian Institute for agrarian reform I and Co RA and further developed land entitlement in 1968 and 1969 alone the I NCO ra issued more than 60,000 land titles to farmers and workers despite this the process was then halted and the situation began to reverse itself as the subsequent violent actions of drug lords paramilitaries guerrillas and opportunistic large landowners severely contributed to a renewed concentration of land and to the displacement of small landowners in the early 21st century tentative government plans to use the land legally expropriated from drug lords and or the properties given back by demobilized paramilitary groups have not caused much practical improvement yet topic Cuba you land reform was among the chief planks of the revolutionary platform of 1959 almost all large holdings were seized by the National Institute for agrarian reform INRA which dealt with all areas of agricultural policy a ceiling of 166 acres sixty seven hectares was established and tenants were given ownership rights though these rights are constrained by government production quotas and a prohibition of real estate transactions topic Guatemala you land reform occurred during the ten years of spring 1944 to 1954 under the governments of Juan Jose Arevalo and Yaakov o Arbenz after a popular revolution forced out dictator Jorge you Baca the largest part of the reform was the law officially called decree 900 which redistributed all uncultivated land from land holdings that were larger than 673 acres 272 hectares if the estates were between 672 acres 272 hectares and 224 acres 91 hectares in size uncultivated land was expropriated only if less than 2/3 of it was in use the law benefited 500,000 people or 1/6 of the Guatemalan population historians have called this reform as one of the most successful land reforms in history however the United Fruit Company felt threatened by the law and lobbied the United States government which was a factor in the us-backed coup that deposed the Yaakov Arbenz in 1954 the majority of the reform was rolled back by the u.s. supported military dictatorship that followed topic Mexico in 1856 the first land reform was driven by the Lalor toe the lyrtle law enacted by the Liberal government one of the aims of the reform government was to develop the economy by returning to productive cultivation the underutilized lands of the church and the municipal communities Indian Commons which required the distribution of these lands to small owners this was to be accomplished through the provisions of Lalor tow that prohibited ownership of land by the church in the municipalities the reformed government also financed its war effort by seizing and selling church property and other large estates after the war the principles of the Lalor tow were perverted by President Porfirio Diaz which caused land concentration and contributed to causing the Mexican Revolution in 1910 a certain degree of land reform was introduced albeit unevenly as part of the Mexican Revolution in 1934 president lázaro cárdenas passed the 1934 agrarian code and accelerated the pace of land reform he helped redistribute 45 million acres 180,000 square kilometers of land 4 million acres 16,000 square kilometres of which were expropriated from American owned agricultural property this caused conflict between Mexico and the United States agrarian reform had come close to extinction in the early 1930s the first few years of the cardano's reform were marked by high food prices falling wages high inflation and low agricultural yields in 1935 land reform began sweeping across the country in the periphery and core of commercial agriculture the cardinal alliance with peasant groups was awarded by the destruction of the Hacienda system Cardenas distributed more land than all his revolutionary predecessors put together a 400% increase the land reform justified itself in terms of productivity average agricultural production during the three-year period from 1939 to 1941 was higher than it had been at any time since the beginning of the revolution starting with the government of Miguel Aleman 1946 252 land reform steps made in previous governments were rolled back a LeMans government allowed capitalists to rent peasant land this created phenomenon known as me alhadeff indies MO where landowners build up large-scale private farms on the basis of controlling land which remains a G doll but is not sown by the peasants to whom it is assigned in 1970 president Luis echeverria began his term by declaring land reform dead in the face of peasant revolt he was forced to backtrack and embarked on the biggest land reform program since Cardenas achiever really glides takeovers of huge foreign owned private farms which were turned into new collective ejidos in 1988 President Carlos Salinas de Gortari was elected in December 1991 he amended article 27 of the Constitution making it legal to sell a jido land and allow peasants to put up their land as collateral for a loan Francisco Madero and Emiliano Zapata were strongly identified with land reform as are the present-day as of 2006 Zapatista army of National Liberation today most Mexican peasants are landowners however their holdings are usually too small and farmers must supplement their incomes by working for the remaining landlords and/or traveling to the United States see also Mexico indigena 2005 to 2008 project topic Nicaragua during and after the Nicaraguan revolution 1979 the Sandinista government officially announced their political platform which included land reform the last months of sand and mr. rule were criticised for the pinata plan which distributed large tracts of land to prominent Sandinistas after their loss in the 1990 elections most of the sandanista leaders held most of the private property and businesses that had been confiscated and nationalized by the FSLN government this process became known as the pinata and was tolerated by the new Chamorro government topic Peru you land reform in the 1950s largely eliminated a centuries-old system of debt peonage further land reform occurred after the 1968 coup by left-wing colonel won Velasco Alvarado the military dictatorship under general won Velasco Alvarado 1968 to 75 launched a large-scale agrarian reform movement that attempted to redistribute land hoping to break Peru's traditionally an equitable pattern of land holding and the hold of traditional oligarchy the model used by Velasco to bring about change was the associative enterprise in which former salaried rural workers and independent peasant families would become members of different kinds of cooperatives about 22 million acres were redistributed more land than in any reform program outside of Cuba unfortunately productivity suffered as peasants with no management experience took control the military government continued to spend huge amounts of money to transform Peru's agriculture to socialized ownership and management these state expenditures are to blame for the enormous increase in Peru's external debt at the beginning of the 1970s state bankruptcy was partly caused by the cheap credit the government extended to promote agrarian development state subsidies and administrative expenditures to carry out the agrarian reform during this period the more radical effects of this reform were reversed by President Fernando Boland Terry in the 1980's a third land reform occurred as part of a counterterrorism effort against the Shining Path during the internal conflict in Peru roughly 1988 to 1995 led by Hernando de Soto in the Institute for liberty and democracy during the early years of the government of Alberto Fujimori before the latter's auto coup topic Venezuela before 1998 60% of the land in Venezuela was owned by less than 1% of the population in 2001 Hugo Chavez government enacted plan Zamora to redistribute government and unused private land to campesinos in need the plan met with heavy opposition which lead to a coup attempt in 2002 when Pedro Carmona took over the presidency during that event he reversed the land reform however the reversal was declared null when the coup failed and Chavez returned to power by the end of 2003 60,000 families had received temporary title to a total of 55,000 square kilometers of land under this plan despite the land reforms carried out by the government which according to some sources have reduced the so called Latta fund use which means big land ownership most receivers of the land didn't have any knowledge about how to cultivate the land and grow crops in many cases peasants didn't even water since water infrastructures were still missing in most of the regions moreover in some cases campus Eidos didn't gain direct ownership of the land but only the right to farm it without having to pay the rent and without sanctions from the government and in some cases the land wasn't given to single peasant family but managed in communes according to the rules of socialism according to some sources the expropriated land amounts to 4 to 5 million hectares the above problems together with a poor treatment of private companies from the government side and the absence of free market led to a shortage crisis in Venezuela which is still ongoing even though the redistribution of land itself not carried out through the communes can be considered a positive achievement and it didn't probably cause the crisis topic Paraguay Paraguay has been known to have experienced some obstacles in its political history that have been known mostly as dictatorship in corruption Paraguay's history is what has shaped the Paraguay we see today and as well as what has brought along the unequal land distributions from the war of Triple Alliance 1864 to 1870 Paraguay came out losing land to Argentina Brazil and Uruguay as well as suffered from a great decline in population and was left with political instability land in Paraguay has been known to be unequally distributed therefore prolonging rural poverty in Paraguay following the Triple Alliance war the nation underwent a 35 year dictatorship of President Alfredo Stroessner in the years of 1954 to 1989 Stroessner was known to take away many campesinos land in order to give it to military officials foreign corporations and civilian supporters over 8 million hectares of state-owned land 20% of total land were given away or sold at negligible prices to friends of the regime who accumulated huge tracts of land Stroessner also faked an alliance with the Colorado party in order to distribute public land campesinos cries for help for land reform were ignored and the prosecution against them continued causing them to suffer from high poverty rates Jeunesse baitul said that as a result of the unequal distribution of land at left rural areas the most poverty stricken in the year of 1954 the truth and justice committee focused on getting justice for the abuses many campesinos were facing from their own government after decades of controversy over government land policy - agrarian laws were created in 1963 these laws were known as the agrarian statute limiting the maximum size of land holding to ten thousand hectares in eastern Paraguay and 20,000 hectares in the Chaco however these laws were rarely enforced under the agrarian statute there was also the creation of IBR instituto de bienestar rural which mandated to plan colonization programs issue land titles to farmers and provide new colonies with support services although IBR focused on serving the and needs of farmers their task was so big and its resources so little that their goals for helping farmers were out of reach Paraguay and democracy came a long way after its 35-year dictatorship but the unequal distribution of land is still a problem for the nation since their economy is one that is dependent on its agriculture a census in 2008 revealed that 80% of Agriculture land is held by just one point six percent of landowners with the 600 largest properties occupying 40% of the total productive land more than 300,000 family farmers have no land at all Paraguay uns have formed unions such as National Federation of campesinos FNC who has fought for justice on the unequal land distributions in Latin America they have helped many campesinos reclaim acres of land since 1989 the ongoing and equality of land distribution has lead to a demand for land regulation citizens remain cautious about the nation's democracy and fearful of the return of dictatorship and corruption the problem regarding land distribution has worsened recently due to the expansion of monoculture in specific soy Paraguay has become the fourth world's largest distributors of soy due to this distribution soy companies are the largest landowners taking over 80% of the land this production has negatively impacted the lives of rural peasants by leaving them without their own land thus on March 2017 the streets of Paraguay's capital were filled with more than 1,000 campesinos demanding for agrarian reform thousands of rural peasants demand access to land fair agricultural prices for what they produce and technical assistance due to the increase in soy production campesinos has been forced out of their lands leading them to demand land regulations this demand of the stabilization and fairness of agricultural prices as a result of Paraguay's government failing to sustain secure prices for their produce which are leaving them to live in extreme poverty in the effect of no secure economy for their produce campesinos mandate technical help a great majority of paraguay UNS continue to practice subsistence agriculture in the depths of the Paraguayan Campeau countryside despite their struggle with Verde inequality and land rights paraguayans are proud of their campesino structure and the traditional culture that arises from it with this culture being the most prominent in Paraguay than anywhere else in Latin America in December 2017 over one third of the population was impoverished in nineteen percent we're living in extreme poverty so the further centralization of land and power has only functioned to exacerbate socio-economic issues thus the campesino movement is still ongoing due to the desire to continue their campesino traditions and to be able to make a living wage doing so topic Middle East and North Africa you topic Ottoman Empire the Ottoman land code of 1858 1274 in the Islamic calendar was the beginning of a systematic land reform program started during the Tanzimat period by sultan abdülmecid the first of the Ottoman Empire during the latter half of the 19th century with the overall aims of increasing state revenue generated from land and for the state to be able to have greater control over individual plots of land this was followed by the 1873 land emancipation Act topic Egypt initially Egyptian land reform essentially abolished the political influence of major landowners however land reform only resulted in the redistribution of about 15% of egypt's land under cultivation and by the early 1980s the effects of land reform in Egypt drew to a halt as the population of Egypt moved away from agriculture the Egyptian land reform laws were greatly curtailed under Anwar Sadat and eventually abolished topic Iran you significant land reform in Iran took place under the Shah as part of the socio-economic reforms of the white revolution begun in 1962 and agreed upon through a public referendum at this time the Iranian economy was not performing well and there was political unrest essentially the land reforms amounted to a huge redistribution of land to rural peasants who previously had no possibility of owning land as they were poorly paid laborers the land reforms continued from 1962 until 1971 with three distinct phases of land distribution private government owned an endowed land these reforms resulted in the newly created peasant land owners owning six to seven million hectares around 52 to 63 percent of Iran's agricultural land according to country data even though there had been a considerable redistribution of land the amount received by individual peasants was not enough to meet most family's basic needs about 75 percent of the peasant owners however had less than seven hectares an amount generally insufficient for anything but subsistence agriculture by 1979 a quarter of prime land was in disputed ownership and half of the productive land was in the hands of 200,000 absentee landlords the large landowners were able to retain the best land with the best access to fresh water and irrigation facilities in contrast not only were the new peasant land holdings too small to produce an income but the peasants also lacked both quality irrigation system and sustained government support to enable them to develop their land to make a reasonable living set against the economic boom from oil revenue it became apparent that the land reforms did not make life better for the rural population according to emit only a small group of rural people experienced increasing improvements in their welfare and poverty remained a lot of the majority Madame argues that the structural changes to Iran including the land reforms initiated by the White Revolution contributed to the Revolution in 1979 which overthrew the Shah and turned Iran into an Islamic Republic topic the rock under British Mandate Iraq's land was moved from communal land owned by the tribe to tribal sheiks that agreed to work with the British known as comprar doors these families controlled much of Iraq's arable land until the end of British rule in 1958 throughout the 1920s and 30s more and more land began to be centered in the hands of just a couple families by 1958 eight individual families owned almost 1 million acre however the British did attempt to instill some reforms to increase the productivity of the land in Iraq in 1926 the pump law was introduced essentially legislating that all newly irrigated land would be tax-free for four years this led to some short-term gains in land productivity if land was cultivated for 15 years it then became the property of the person who cultivated that land from 1914 to 1943 there was an increase from 1 million to 4.25 million acres of land developed unfortunately irrigation of the land was irresponsible and many farmers didn't allow for drainage which led to a buildup of salt and minerals in the land killing its productivity in 1958 the rise of the Communist Party led to the seizing of much of the land by the Iraqi government land holdings were capped at 600 acres in arable areas in 1,200 acres in areas that had rainfall the concentrated land holdings by the state were then redistributed among the populace in amounts of 20 acres in irrigated land with 40 acres in land with rainfall in 1970 the Baath Party led by Saddam Hussein began instituting a wide series of sweeping land reforms the intent of the reforms was to remove control of land owned by the traditional rural elites and redistributed to peasant families modeled after the 1958 land reforms much of the state land was rented out though often to people who originally owned the large swaths of land the key to this new reform was the agrarian reform law of 1970 between 1970 and 1980 to 264 thousand four hundred farmers received grants of land however these reforms did not contribute to an improvement in the production of agricultural goods leading the regime to increase its imp ports of food products topic maghreb as elsewhere in North Africa lands formerly held by European farmers have been taken over the nationalization of agricultural land in Algeria Morocco and Tunisia led to the departure of the majority of Europeans topic Syria land reforms were first implemented in Syria during 1958 the agricultural relations law laid down a redistribution of rights in land ownership tenancy and management the reforms were halted in 1961 due to a culmination of factors including opposition from large landowners and severe crop failure during a drought between 1958 and 1961 whilst Syria was a member of the doomed United Arab Republic uar after the Baath Party gained power in 1963 the reforms were resumed the reforms were portrayed by the governing body motivated to benefit the rural property less communities according to Zakir Al RCZ a co-founder of the Baath Party the reforms would liberate 75% of the Syrian population and prepare them to be citizens qualified to participate in the building of the state it has been argued that the land reform represented work by the socialist government however by 1984 the private sector controlled 74 percent of Syria's arable land this questions both both claims of commitment to the redistribution of land to the majority of peasants as well as the state government being socialist if it allowed the majority of land to be owned in the private sector how could it truly be socialist Hinna Bush argued that the reforms were a way of galvanizing support from the large rural population they both party members used the implementation of agrarian reform to win over and organize peasants and curbed traditional power in the countryside to this extent the reforms succeeded and resulted with an increase in Baath Party membership they also prevented political threat emerging from rural areas by bringing the rural population into the system as supporters topic Europe you see also the land reform of 1919 to 1940 Lithuania and the countries of East and Central Europe topic Albania Albania has gone through three waves of land reform since the end of World War Two in 1946 the land in estates and large farms was expropriated by the communist government and redistributed among small peasants in the 1950s the land was reorganized into large-scale collective farms and after 1991 the land was again redistributed among private small holders topic Estonia Estonia has witnessed two periods of land reform in 1919 and 1991 which occurred very shortly after the declaration of Estonian independence and the restoration of independence respectfully the Act of 1919 was primarily concerned with the transferral of land ownership from Baltic Germans to ethnic Estonians the 1991 act was instead aimed at the transfer of land ownership from the state having been nationalized under Soviet occupation to private individuals based on historic land ownership in 1940 as well as the protection of the legal rights of the present users of land topic Finland in the general reap arseling out of land begun in 1757 when Finland was a part of Sweden the medieval model of all fields consisting of numerous strips each belonging to a farm was replaced by a model of fields and forest areas each belonging to a single farm in the further reparse links which started in 1848 when Finland was part of Russia the idea of concentrating all the land in a farm - a single piece of real estate was reinforced in these reap arseling processes the land is redistributed in direct proportion to earlier prescription both the general reap arseling and the further reap arseling processes are still active in some parts of the country and a new reap arseling can be initiated when the local need for such reap arseling arises after the Finnish Civil War when Finland had become independent a series of land reforms followed these included the compensated transfer of lease holdings torpor to the leasers and prohibition of forestry companies to acquire land after the Second World War karelians evacuated from areas ceded to Russia were given land in remaining Finnish areas taken from public and private holdings with less than full compensation to the previous owners also the war veterans and their widows benefited from these allotments as a result of post-world War two land reform 30,000 new farms were established 33,000 small farms received more land and 67,000 families received either a plot for a single family home or a homestead with some arable land topic Ireland at the 19th century most of the land in Ireland belonged to large landowners most of them of English origin most of the Irish population were tenants having few rights and forced to pay high rents this situation was a contributory factor to the great Irish Famine of 1845 to 1852 and the main cause of the land Wars of 1870s to 1890s the governments of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland responded to the agitations in ireland with a series of land Acts beginning with the first Irish Land Act 1870 initiated by Prime Minister William Ewart Gladstone followed by further five land acts overseen by land Commission prior to independence in 1922 by which time over 90% of lands had transferred from landlords to their former tenant farmers on negotiated terms with funding provided by the UK government topic Italy Land Reform has been a long-standing and widespread problem before the XX century especially in South Italy despite the vain attempts of the governments to redistribute the land in South Italy the so-called Mezzogiorno from the pragmatic decreed to administration université Tom 1792 of Ferdinand the first of the Two Sicilies to the law led G aversive della fille de which literally means laws abolishing feudalism in 1806 - 1808 enacted by Joseph Bonaparte the issue remained largely unsolved mainly because of the strenuous opposition of the great landowners unwilling to lose their privileges and to allow the emancipation of the peasant class even with the unification of Italy despite the promises of the abolition of the so called Latifa a large estates the problem remained unsolved South Italy's big landowners which had been loyal to the Bourbons until the 1862 the unification of Italy in order to not lose its prestige and expropriating estates from them would have implied for the Kingdom of Italy 1861 to 1946 to have a powerful enemy south italy's peasants disappointed and irritated rebelled and provoked a bloody civil war known as post unification brigandage the first effective land reform was carried out in 1950 right after the birth of the Italian Republic Italian parliament passed the decree leg Straus eo-n 841 del 21 October 1950 which provided the legal basis for land expropriation and redistribution the redistribution occurred over a longer period of time about 10 to 20 years the decree financed in part with the funds of marshal plan launched by the United States in 1947 but also opposed by conservative members of the American administration probably was according to some scholars the most important reform of the aftermath of World War two the decree provided that the land had to be distributed to peasants through compulsory purchase thus turning them into small entrepreneurs no longer subjected to large landowners on one side the reform had a positive outcome to the population but on the other side it also considerably reduced Italian farm size reducing the chances for bigger companies to grow however this drawback was attenuated and in some cases eliminated by implementing forms of cooperation agricultural cooperatives started to spread and since then agriculture turned into an entrepreneurial business which could expand planets production and centralized the sale of products after the land reform of 1950 large estates latif Lundy bylaw cannot be bigger than 300 hectares 3 square kilometres before the 1950 largest states were widespread especially in South Italy nowadays large estate aren't present anymore on Italy's territory for example in Sicily before the 1950 large estates larger than 500 hectares 5 square kilometers were 228 more over 20.6% of the islands land was owned by only 282 big landowners in the region of Brut so large estates were also widespread the most notable case is perhaps the estate of the Torlonia family which owned large estates near Piana del fuchi no its size was more than fourteen thousand hectares 140 square kilometers and it was redistributed to 5000 Italian families of landless farmers crop yields significantly increased after 1950 since agriculture had become intensive following the development of industry agriculture has now become a marginal sector of Italian economy but by implementing modern agricultural techniques its profitability per hectare increased topic Russia and the Soviet Union the Emancipation reform of 1861 affected during the reign of Alexander ii of russia abolished serfdom throughout russia more than 23 million people received their liberty serfs were granted the full rights of free citizens gaining the rights to marry without having to gain consent to own property and to own a business the manifesto prescribed that peasants would be able to buy the land from the landlord's until the beginning of the 20th century the vast majority of russian peasants held their land in communal ownership within peasant communities called Murs which acted as village governments and cooperatives arable land was divided in sections based on soil quality and distance from the village each household had the right to claim one or more strips from each section depending on the number of adults in the household this communal system was abolished in 1906 by the capitalist oriented Stolypin reforms the reforms introduced the unconditional right of individual land ownership they encouraged peasants to buy their share of the community lands leave the communities and settle in privately owned settlements called Cooter's by 1910 the share of private settlements among all rural households in the European part of Russia was estimated at 10.5% the Stolypin reforms and the majority of their benefits were reversed after the communist revolution of 1917 the decree on land issued by Lenin @ 1917 and the fundamental law of land socialization of 1918 decreed that private ownership of land is totally abolished land may not be sold purchased leased mortgage or otherwise alienated all land whether state Crown monastery church factory entailed private public peasant etc shall be confiscated without compensation and become the property of the whole people and pass into the use of all those who cultivate it these decrees were superseded by the 1922 land code after the universal Agricultural collectivization land codes of the Soviet republics lost their significance see agriculture in the Soviet Union after the collapse of the USSR a new land code was enacted allowing private land ownership agriculture in Russia topic Sweden in 1757 the general reap arseling out of land began in this process the medieval principle of dividing all the fields in a village into strips each belonging to a farm was changed into a principle of each farm consisting of a few relatively large areas of land the land was redistributed in proportion to earlier possession of land while uninhabited forests far from villages were socialized see agriculture in sweden hashtag history in the 20th century sweden almost non-violently arrived at regulating the length minimum of tenant farming contracts at 25 years topic united kingdom there have been many land reformers in the United Kingdom but most actual land reform has taken place in Scotland rather than England and Wales advocates of land reform in Britain have included the 17th century diggers John Stuart Mill Alfred Russel Wallace and Jesse Collins currently the Labour land campaign promotes the case for a land value tax one of the results of which would be some land reform the Green Party of England and Wales and the Scottish Green Party support land value tax topic Scotland in the 21st century land reform in Scotland has focused on the abolition and modernization of Scotland's antiquated feudal land tenure system security of tenure for crafters and decentralization of Scotland's highly concentrated private land ownership Scotland's land reform is distinct from other contemporary land reforms in its focus on community land ownership with the land reform Scotland acts of 2003 and 2016 establishing the community right - by allowing rural and urban communities first right of refusal to purchase local land when it comes up for sale crofting communities are granted a similar right to buy though they do not require a willing seller to buy out local crofting land under the community empowerment Scotland act 2015 and land reform Scotland act 2016 Scottish Ministers can grant a compulsory sale order for vacant or derelict private land or land which if owned by the local community could further sustainable development topic Africa you topic Ethiopia historically Ethiopia was divided into the northern highlands which constituted the core of the old Christian kingdom and the southern highlands most of which were brought under imperial rule by conquest in the northern regions the major form of ownership was a type of communal system known as wrist according to this system all descendants of an individual founder were entitled to a share and individuals had the right to use a plot of familyland wrist was hereditary inalienable and inviolable no user of any piece of land could sell his or her share outside the family or mortgage or bequeath his or her share as a gift as the land belonged not to the individual but to the descent group most peasants in the northern highlands held at least some wrists land absentee landlordism was rare and landless tenants were estimated at only about 20% of holdings on the contrary in the southern provinces few farmers owned the land on which they worked after the conquest officials divided southern land equally among the state the church and the indigenous population tendency in the southern provinces ranged between 65% and 80% of the holdings and tenant payments to land owners averaged as high as 50% of the produce in the eastern lowland periphery in the Great Rift Valley most land were used for grazing the pastoral social structure is based on a kinship system with strong inter-clan connections grazing and water rights are regulated by custom beginning in the 1950s the government tried to modernize the agriculture by granting large tracts of traditional grazing lands to large corporations and converting them into large-scale commercial farms in the north and south peasant farmers lacked the means to improve production because of the fragmentation of holdings a lack of credit and the absence of modern facilities particularly in the south the insecurity of tenure and high rents killed the peasants incentive to improve production further those attempts by the Imperial government to improve the peasants title to their land were often met with suspicion by the mid-1960s many sectors of Ethiopian society favoured land reform University students led the land reform movement and campaigned against the government's reluctance to introduce land reform programs in the lack of commitment to integrated rural development in 1974 the socialist dirt government rose to power and on March 4th 1975 the Derg announced its land reform program the government nationalized rural land without compensation abolished tendency forbade the hiring of wage labor on private farms ordered all commercial farms to remain under state control and granted each peasant family so-called possessing rights to a plot of land not to exceed 10 hectares the Ethiopian church lost all its land although the dirt gained little respect during its rule this reform resulted in a rare show of support for the hoon de tenant farmers in southern Ethiopia welcomed the land reform but in the northern highlands many people resisted land reform and perceived it as an attack on their rights to wrist land the lowland peripheries were only slightly affected by the reforms the land reform destroyed the feudal order it changed land owning patterns particularly in the south in favour of peasants and small landowners it also provided the opportunity for peasants to participate in local matters by permitting them to form associations topic Kenya in the 1960s president Jomo Kenyatta launched a peaceful land reform program based on willing buyer willing seller it was funded by Great Britain the former colonial power in 2006 President Mwai Kibaki said it will repossess all land owned by absentee landlords in the coastal strip and redistribute it to squatters topic Namibia Namibia's colonial past had resulted in a situation where about 20% of the population mostly white settlers owned about 75% of all the land in 1990 shortly after Namibia got its independence its first president Sam knew Joma initiated a plan for land reform in which land would be redistributed from whites to blacks legislation passed in September 1994 with a compulsory compensated approach the land reform has been slow mainly because Namibia's Constitution only allows land to be bought from farmers willing to sell also the price of land is very high in Namibia which further complicates the matter by 2007 some 12% of the total commercial farmland in the country was taken away from white farmers and given to black citizens topic South Africa the natives Land Act of 1913 prohibited the establishment of new farming operations sharecropping or cache rentals by blacks outside of the reserves where they were forced to live in 1991 after a long anti-apartheid struggle led by the African National Congress State President FW de Klerk declared the repeal of several apartheid rules particularly the population Registration Act the group areas and the natives land act a catch-all abolition of racially based land measures Act was passed these measures ensured no one could claim or be deprived of any land rights on the basis of race in 1994 shortly after the African National Congress came to power in South Africa it initiated a land reform process focused on three areas restitution land tenure reform and land redistribution restitution where the government compensates monetary individuals who had been forcefully removed has been very unsuccessful and the policy has now shifted to redistribution initially land was bought from its owners willing seller by the government willing buyer and redistributed in order to maintain public confidence in the land market this system has proved to be very difficult to implement because many owners do not actually see the land they're purchasing and are not involved in the important decisions made at the beginning of the purchase and negotiation in 2000 the South African government decided to review and change the redistribution and tenure process to a more decentralized in area based planning process the idea is to have local integrated development plans in 47 districts topic Zimbabwe by 1979 when Zimbabwe gained independence 46.5 percent of the country's arable land was owned by around 6000 commercial farmers and white farmers who made up less than 1% of the population owned 70% of the best farming land as part of the Lancaster House agreement of 1979 President Robert Mugabe initiated a willing buyer willing seller plan in which white land owners were encouraged to sell their lands to the government with partial funding from Britain around 71 thousand families perhaps 500,000 people settled on 3.5 million hectares of former white owned land under this program which was described by The Economist in 1989 as perhaps the most successful aid program in Africa the 1992 Land Acquisition Act was enacted to speed up the land reform process by removing the willing seller willing buyer clause limiting the size of farms and introducing a land tax although the tax was never implemented the Act empowered the government to buy land compulsorily for redistribution and a fair compensation was to be paid for land acquired land owners could challenge in court the price set by the acquiring Authority opposition by landowners increased throughout the period of 1992 to 1997 in the 1990s less than 1 million hectare 2.4 7 million acres were acquired and fewer than 20,000 families were resettled much of the land acquired during what has become known as phase 1 of land reform was of poor quality according to Human Rights Watch only 19 percent of the almost 3.5 million hectares 8.65 million acres of resettled land was considered prime or farmable in 1997 the new British government led by Tony Blair unilaterally stopped funding the willing buyer willing seller land reform programme Britain's ruling Labour Party felt no obligation to continue paying white farmers compensation in 2000 a referendum on constitutional amendments was held the proposed amendments called for a fast-track land reform and allowed the government to confiscate white land for redistribution to black farmers without compensation the motion failed with 55 percent of participants against the referendum however self-styled war veterans led by Chenjerai Huns VIII began invading white owned farms those who did not leave voluntarily were often tortured and sometimes killed on the 6th of April 2000 Parliament pushed through an amendment taken word-for-word from the draft constitution that was rejected by voters allowing the seizure of white owned farm lands without due reimbursement or payment in this first wave of farm invasions a total of 110,000 square kilometers of land had been seized Parliament dominated by Xiongnu PF passed a constitutional amendment signed into law on the 12th of September 2005 that nationalized farmland acquired through the fast-track process and deprived original land owners of the right to challenge in court the government's decision to expropriate their land the Supreme Court of Zimbabwe ruled against legal challenges to this amendment during the fast track many parcels of land came under the control of people close to the government as is the case throughout Africa the several forms of forcible change in management caused a severe drop in production and other economic disruptions topic north america you topic Canada a land reform was carried out as part of Prince Edward Island's agreement to join the Canadian Confederation in 1873 most of the land was owned by absentee landlords in England and as part of the deal Canada was to buy all the land and give it to the farmers topic united states following the u.s. Civil War many blacks and military officials considered land reform vital the downfall of the Confederacy emancipated millions but few former slaves had the means to exercise real autonomy land even at depressed post-war prices was difficult for African Americans to procure at the same time with southern wealth the result of centuries of forced labor blacks nationwide called for property on the basis of just reparations politically redistribution carried the support of Radical Republicans but opposing any grants to blacks were Southern Democrats along with a white house committed to restoration given national divisions reform efforts were varied but short-lived many African Americans believed property was critical to erasing slave oriented social order in addition to speaking out some demanded plots and moved into their masters plantation homes by force others bought land collectively or squatted on what was undeveloped throughout war and reconstruction the presence of federal troops provided a platform for Agricultural Policy in 1865 William Tecumseh Sherman issued field order 15 taking coastal land in South Carolina Georgia and Florida and dividing it into 40 acre plots for black settlement hence the term forty acres and a mule in March Congress established the Freedmen's Bureau whose Commissioner had authority to redistribute confiscated or abandoned southern land the bureau held 850,000 acres 3,400 square kilometres and key directors pushed for its settling with former slaves when President Andrew Johnson began to pardon Confederates and restore their property commissioner Oliver o Howard issued circular 13 the order instructed agents to establish forty acre parcels with haste Johnson rescinded the order and an overwhelming majority of Bureau land returned to its previous owners the final reform attempts of reconstruction occurred within state governments in South Carolina a Land Commission was established which purchased property and sold it on the long term credit other state Republicans utilized new taxes penalizing large estates to seize and divide land and stimulate black ownership this indirect method achieved little as taxes were repaid and lands were reclaimed of property not redeemed much was exploited by investors ultimately reconstruction was discounted as socialism by moderates committed to free market transformation a popular new line of political attack levied against the likes of boss tweed and Benjamin F Butler alike radicals began to fall even earlier with the failure of Johnson's impeachment liberal Republicans eroding the era's political landscape called for an immediate end to black barbarism white supremacist violence and financial panic weakened reconstruction to the breaking point with the compromise of 1877 it was finished in the 19th century Indian tribes owned about 138 million acres 560 thousand square kilometres of land in the USA land was considered the property of the whole tribe which used it to cater to the needs of the individual tribe members this approach to land ownership was different than the white European approach which regarded land as private property of individuals many US politicians believed it was important to assimilate Native Americans into white American culture and thus have their lands open for commerce and development the Dawes Act also known as the general allotment act or the Dawes severalty Act adopted by Congress in 1887 authorized the President of the United States to survey American Indian tribal land and divided into allotments for individual Indians those who accepted allotments and lived separately from the tribe would be granted United States citizenship the Dawes Act was amended in 1891 and again in 1906 by the Burke act through the Dawes Act many Indians received private title to a land plot but most of the Indian lands were considered surplus and put to sale to white European settlers thus the total amount of land owned by Indians decreased to only 48 million acres 190,000 square kilometers in 1934 most tribal lands still owned by ethnic Indians was recollect alized in 1934 you topic Asia you topic Afghanistan Afghanistan has had a couple of attempts at land reform in 1975 the government of President Mohammed Daoud Khan responded to the inequities of the existing land tenure conditions by issuing a land reform law it limited individual Holdings to a maximum of 20 hectares of irrigated double cropped land larger holdings were allowed for less productive land the government was to expropriate all surplus land and pay compensation to prevent the proliferation of small UNAC anomic Holdings priority for redistributed lands was to be given to neighboring farmers with two hectares or less landless sharecroppers laborers tenants and nomads had next priority despite the government's rhetorical commitment to land reform the program was quickly postponed because the government's land holding limits applied to families not individuals wealthy families avoided expropriation by dividing their lands nominally between family members the high ceilings for land holdings restricted the amount of land actually subject to redistribution finally the government lacked the technical data and organisational bodies to pursue the program after it was announced after the 1978 Saur Revolution the Communist People's Democratic Party of Afghanistan PDPA issued decree number six which cancelled Jerell and other mortgage debts of agricultural laborers tenants and small landowners with less than two hectares of land the cancellation applied only to debts contracted before 1973 the decree number 8 of November 1978 made new land holdings from the 20 hectares of prime irrigated land in the 1975 law to just six hectares it divided all land into seven classes and again allowed for larger holdings of less productive land there was no compensation for government expropriated surplus land and it established categories of farmers who had priority for redistributed land sharecroppers already working on the land had highest priority topic China since the fall of the Qing Dynasty in 1911 China has been through a series of land reform programs the founder of the Nationalist Party Sun yat-sen advocated a land to the tiller program of equal distribution of land which was partly implemented by the Nationalist government under Chiang kai-shek in the 1940s the sino-american Joint Commission on rural reconstruction funded with American money with the support of the national government carried out land reform and community action programs in several provinces in October 1947 two years before the foundation of the People's Republic of China PRC the Communist Party of China launched land reform campaigns that established control in north china villages in the mid 1950s a second land reform during the Great Leap Forward compelled individual farmers to join collectives which in turn were grouped into people's communes with centrally controlled property rights and an egalitarian principle of distribution this policy was generally a failure in terms of production the PRC reversed this policy in 1962 through the proclamation of the 60 articles as a result the ownership of the basic means of production was divided into three levels with collective land ownership vested in the production team see also how 2001 a third land reform beginning in the late 1970s reintroduced the family based contract system known as the household responsibility system was followed by a period of stagnation chen-wong and Davis 1998 suggests that the stagnation was due in part to a system of periodic redistributions that encouraged over exploitation rather than private capital investment in future productivity however although land use rights were returned to individual farmers collective land ownership was left undefined after the disbandment of the people's communes since 1983 China has launched a series of land policy reforms to improve land-use efficiency to rationalize land allocation to enhance land management and to coordinate urban and rural development these land policy reforms have yielded positive impacts on urban land use as well as negative consequences on the positive side they have contributed to emerging land markets increased government revenue for the financing of massive infrastructure projects and provision of public goods and improved the rationalization of land use on the negative side problems such as loss of social equity socio-economic conflicts and government corruption have emerged since 1998 China is in the midst of drafting the new property law which is the first piece of national legislation that will define the land ownership structure in China for years to come the property law forms the basis for China's future land policy of establishing a system of freehold rather than of private ownership see also ho 2005 topic India under the British occupation the land system in India has been fueling with few absentee landlords holding most of the lands and claiming high rents from poor peasants the demand for a land reform was a major theme in the demand for independence after independence the different states in India gradually started a land reform process in four main categories abolition of intermediaries rent collectors under the pre-independence land revenue system tenancy regulation to improve the contractual terms including security of tenure a ceiling on land holdings to redistribute surplus land to the landless and attempts to consolidate disparate land holdings the extent and success of these reforms varied greatly between the different states of India topic Japan the first land reform in recent history called the land tax reform or chuseok I say dazu guide Jung passed in 1873 six years after the Meiji Restoration it established the right of private land ownership in Japan for the first time and was a major restructuring of the previous land taxation system the government initially ordered individual farmers to measure the plots of their land themselves calculate their taxes and submit the results to local tax officials however difficulties arose with the honesty of the measuring system and the government responded by forcefully changing land values to meet the set amount if self-reported values did not meet projected values this caused widespread resentment among farmers and several large scale riots causing the government to lower the tax rate from 3 percent to 2.5 percent the department continued its aggressive taxation until 1878 but the strictness of rules gradually decreased as it became clear that required amounts would be met by 1887 years after the start of the land reforms the new system had been completely implemented private land ownership was recognized for the first time in Japan with the issuing of land titles previously individual farmers were merely borrowing the land from feudal lords who in turn were borrowing the land from the emperor the reform abolished this archaic system of land ownership and began to allow land owners to use their property as a financial asset in collateral or other investment this law was one of the first steps towards the development of capitalism in Japan paralleling the English and later United Kingdom statute quia M tors enacted several centuries earlier another major land reform was carried out in 1947 during the occupied era after world war ii under instructions of the supreme commander of the Allied powers based on a proposal from the Japanese government which had been prepared before the defeat of the greater Japanese Empire this last reform is also called nachi ki ho Nong dijiye Fang emancipation of farming land between 1947 and 1949 approximately five million eight hundred thousand acres twenty-three thousand square kilometers of land approximately 38% of Japan's cult land was

fields during the martial law era of the Ferdinand Marcos administration presidential decree 27 instituted a land reform program covering rice and corn farms rice and corn production under this land reform program was heavily supported by the Marcos administration with land distribution and financing program known as the masa gana 99 and other production loans that led to increased rice and corn production the country produced enough rice for local consumption and became a rice exporter during that period the Corazon Aquino administration in the mid-1980s instituted a very controversial land reform known as carp which covered all agricultural lands the program led to rice shortages in the succeeding years and lasted for 20 years without accomplishing the goal of land distribution the program caused entrepreneurs to stay away from agriculture and a number of productive farmers left the farming sector the carp was a monumental failure in terms of cost to the government and the landowners whose lands were subjected to legal land grabbing by the government carp expired at the end of December 2008 topic sri lanka in 1972 the government of serum of abandon Ayaka through the land reform law imposed a ceiling of 20 hectares on privately owned land and sought to distribute lands in excess of the ceiling for the benefit of landless peasants both land owned by public

proprietors was created topic Taiwan in the 1950s after the nationalist government came to Taiwan land reform and community development was carried out by the sino-american Joint Commission on rural reconstruction this course of action was made attractive in part by the fact that many of the large landowners were Japanese who had fled and the other large landowners were compensated with Japanese commercial and industrial properties seized after Taiwan reverted from Japanese rule in 1945 the land program succeeded also because the Kuomintang were mostly from the mainland and had few ties to the remaining indigenous landowners see also Taiwan land reform Museum topic Vietnam in the years after World War two land redistribution to poor and landless peasants was initiated by the Communist Viet Minh insurgents in areas which they controlled after the partition of the country into two parts North Vietnam and South Vietnam the Communist land reform 1953 to 1956 redistributed land to more than 2 million poor peasants but at a cost of thousands possibly tens of thousands of lives and contributed to the exodus of up to 1 million people from the north to the south in 1954 in 1955 the land reform campaign was accompanied by large-scale repression and excesses some of which were subsequently criticized within the ruling Workers Party of Vietnam itself South Vietnam made several further attempts in the post diem years the most ambitious being the land to the tiller program instituted in 1970 by President and when Van Thieu this limited individuals to 15 hectares compensated the

temporary mass tombs without a name the paranormal investigators don't explain why there are so many anonymous people buried in the graveyard but one can only imagine the number of restless spirits that might be stalking those graves one brave gang gorupi investigator decides to take their investigation to another level by getting down into one of the cemetery tombs and laying there all alone in

C7JcdpYSOOQ | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C7JcdpYSOOQ | Health and Sport Committee - 19 March 2019 | good morning and welcome to the ninth meeting of the health and sport committee in 2019 can I ask everyone in the room please to ensure that their phones are off or on silent and while it is acceptable to use mobile devices for social media purposes I would ask you not to record or photograph the proceedings we have received apologies this morning from Sandra white MSP the first item on the agenda and his support subordinate legislation and consideration of a negative instrument the National Health Service superannuation and pension schemes Scotland miscellaneous amendments regulations 2019 the delegated person Law Reform Committee has considered the instrument it did so on the 5th of March 2019 and determined that it did not need to draw attention of the Parliament to this instrument on any grains within its remit this instrument relates to pensions within the NHS among other things and can I invite they've Stewart to comment while this may seem quite technical and remote I'm quite concerned about this particular issue and for members that haven't folded in detail the key issues that the employer contributions will rise by 6% in next month and the reason for that is it's a change in the discount rate so the lower the rate the higher the level of funding required so the rates dropping by 0.4% so probably the key issue is will discourage government receive a full barring a consequential for this and I'm sure members have all seen the correspondents particularly from GPS and GP practice I mean we're all concerned about recruitment and retention of GPS so I'm particularly concerned about this and rural areas are particularly affected so the effect could be and redone cities and GP staff the other issue that could happen and again this happens across Scotland is some GP practices are revert into health board control and I think this will have a major problem for the crewmen and retention of GPS but of course it's wider than this and then I think my colleague Myles Briggs might want to talk about the child's issue but there's particular issues among nan and it shares some employers such as Anne Hospice in Charities and in universities Charles wrote us just the other day to say that it's going to cost them three hundred fifty thousand extra per year which is covenant to nine full-time nurses now I do appreciate convener these are all reserved issues that has a huge effect in Scottish government and in health and the waiter er should just set the scene is the other factor that's affecting GPS and consultants in particular is the changes to the lifetime allowance which is a UK pension restriction so basically what this does is once individuals are through the ceiling is a adverse tax effect on them in the longer term so and certainly my own experience can Ryan GP practices and Highlands and Islands as this is certainly affecting the ability of GPS to work be an consultants to work beyond 55 or to work at more reduced hours and of course we all know we desperately need full-time GPS as well as part-time GPS as well so I don't I suspect there's not much this committee can do with this factor but I think it's really important we highlight this because we can all see this coming we're facing a GP crisis in Scotland and the employer contributions will affect as the lifetime allowances can affect this and there's other tax issues which all more the committee with which there's also affecting them but I feel really concerned about the fact in GPS and I'm very concerned about the effect on non NHS and employers particularly hospices we all have I'm sure hospices now really I know my own one does a fantastic job in Inverness and I am very concerned about the extra costs and I think in England they treated slightly differently so just put these things on the table and to highlight my real concerns about recruitment retention well made and well understood we have until the 29th of March to report on this instrument so we have the flexibility to continue this and seek further information Thank You convener reinforce what our resident pension expert has just said M I think it is important that we do maybe take some time out because there was a president set in 2004 and around the proposed increase then an additional funds being set aside to support non NHS direct employers so I think it's important my understanding is that in England and Wales that actually they'll be included in the scope of funding and to take account of these additional costs but we haven't managed to get clarity from the UK government or the Scottish government on that so I would like us to take a bit more time to see if we can and get those assurances ahead of next week did describe my support to what David Stewart has raised this has been raised independently with me with constituents and GP practices and I agree that I have an anxiety just nodding this through without an understanding as to where from where this money is expected to come thank you very much there are other comments I see nodding heads around the table I would therefore propose that we are right to the government and ask for urgent reassurances or a reassurances early as they can provide them and as far as they can provide them in relation to these costs being covered and thereby mitigating the impact of the changes on recruitment and retention both in general practice on more widely and we will return to that hopefully with our information from the government next week okay thank you very much colleagues the next item on the agenda is an evidence session on the committee's inquiry into health hazards in the healthcare environment as colleagues will know this arises from issues at the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital recently there have been such issues over a period since its opening in 2015 which have raised concerns regarding patient safety and the committee agreed on the 29th of January to inquire into health hazards in the healthcare environment across Scotland more generally we issued a call for written views and received 27 responses today we have an oral evidence session on the inquiry and we will of course consider our next steps following that session but I'm pleased welcome to the committee today Ian Brodie the director Scotland of the Health and Safety Executive Alastair Delaney Delaney a director of quality assurance at healthcare improvement Scotland Jim Miller director of procurement commissioning of facilities at the NHS national services Scotland responsible for health facility Scotland and Philip Kaiser director of public health and intelligence all national services Scotland responsible for health protection Scotland welcome gentlemen to the committee and we are if I can start off with a question for Philip Kaiser our really to get us underway and perhaps other colleagues as well which is to ask how far it is possible to identify from the current systems of health protection and management how far we can judge the level of morbidity and mortality associated with the built environment in the NHS and Scott thank you convener we I think the first thing to say is obviously we are inherently dealing with a very dynamic situation and I'm not just talking about in this point in time I'm talking it is that will always be a dynamic situation the nature of the threat from health care associated infection changes over time the you know it's inherent in any microbiology that we have a degree of evolution what we do with patients is changing over time and what we do with the built environment is changing over time I think it's important to look at the the longer term and Scotland has a very strong track record in the longer term we've made significant advances certainly over the last 10 years and reducing the burden from healthcare associated infection and there's no evidence at this point in time to suggest that we're seeing any significant increase now obviously there have been some significant high-profile and indeed tragic incidents of late that obviously have have merited this hearing today but and taking in the broader picture there is nothing to suggest that there is any significant change or increase as a whole and I think it's worth is saying as well that in terms of international benchmarking you know just not just over time but internationally Scotland does very well our and it's when we can say that with a degree of confidence as well and the monitoring systems in Scotland are in some ways a lot more comprehensive than they are in other countries and even within a UK context they are their more comprehensive you know we have a point prevalence survey that we we undertake every five years there is an extensive survey we have an annual report and we have quarterly updates and at the moment you look at those in the round there is no suggestion that there is a significant change now that's not to say that there may not be there's always that possibility that that things could go in the wrong direction but certainly there's no indication of that at this point in time thanks very much I think the report that you provided to the committee suggested 48 HEI infections are rising from the healthcare environment over a three-year period do you believe that that was a lot that has captured the the scale and range of issues arising it's a it's a difficult one to be precise on to be honest because how do you define an instant and respect of well it has originated from the healthcare built environment it depends on how you want to define that because if it's about an inherent design fault or is it about the way the built environment has been used or maintained so it's difficult so indeed that is a question I have asked what you know as a proportion of the overall incidence what does what is 48 now the answer to that is that that is about 10% but others might take a different view and say that there are other incidents that might be attributable because you can never isolate and just say it's so that instead of having solar because of the built environment there will always be an element of of maintenance and an event or process in there so it's a it's a difficult one to be to be precise on but certainly the team and health techs in Scotland in terms of instance directly attributable to the built environment believe that it's 48 is their best estimate of that which is about 10 percent of the total published report on Queen Elizabeth Hospital highlighted with issues around water systems and the safety of water some of our witnesses have also suggested that ventilation systems and cleanliness and cleaning rotors and systems are very significant as well looking at that group of 48 identified cases would you be able to estimate what proportion of those are water based what proportion ventilation based what proportion arising from issues of cleaning or cleanliness specifically it tips out 48 know I could provide we could provide that information if the committee wanted that information certainly for general with is I think is worth saying that because of the instance involving both water and ventilation work has been done in terms of looking at broader research internationally to look at the the burden as a consequence of both water and ventilation systems good morning fellow can I just see you you said that schools is a very strong array up particularly over the past 10 years in this issue and to confection control and you also says when you do international benchmarking we do really rail as well so my question would equate simple compared to the rest the developed world what is it that Scotland does definitely an infection control or are we doing better in certain areas or are we there or in the par with the rest of the world we certainly we do better on the whole if you look at the figures at the moment we we have a very strong right record and I've got some figures with me around looking at this or European picture and we're certainly right up there are much the very the very best and on a European scale in terms of what what is it that Scotland as well I think it's it's about how the different agencies that work together which obviously think is very pertinent to lots of the discussions here today so and a lot of this does go back in history talks to events for example like the Vale of Leven and unless ins that were learnt from that how different ages of what worked together so health Texas cotton work very closely with healthcare improvement Scotland through things like the Scottish Patient Safety Program advising on different bundles of of care improvement around healthcare associated infections and the work of the scratch patient safety program is well known so that's obviously one of the key factors in terms of how across agencies we've been able to come together to address this and another factor clearly as well is I mentioned the very extensive monitoring that we have in reporting that we insist on from from boards which is which is mandatory reporting it's not optional so the the health infection incident assessment tool Hayate which I think referred to and our evidence you know boards have to submit that and indeed we've tightened that up I think the other we've created was a learning system if you like in so much as if you're looking just at the most recent events and concerning some of the instance connected with water we already have in place an action plan of things that are going to happen but we don't wait until we have some extensive formal review we actually have a learner's if we get on and start to put in place things and again it's a multi-agency it's not health text and Scotland sitting in isolation it's helped action Scotland working with health facility Scotland and with health care improvement Scotland so that I can get a scale what you mentioned two figures that you've got compared in Scotland to something you do you have these thing else you said you have I haven't I'd rather not because they're difficult to put in context and it's probably better if it's something it shares again we can we can provide those figures thank you no good morning everybody I'm interested in the aspects of infection control because it's complex because we have molds bacteria viruses it's a complex issue and the isolation precautions or standard precautions and the way that we look at managing modes of transmission is say it it's complicated and I'm wondering how the agencies all work together and to make sure that you their expertise is shared and that there is crossover of knowledge but support of each other because health in infection prevention is actually quite a difficult task I think right now I think it's really important that for example if we take the inspections that we do and we use the standards that are created by health protection Scotland to and to gauge what we look at if we then go we need specialist expertise see because we come across certain issues in a particular place then we would obviously collaborate with our specialist expertise so that we can understand it better we can work together on improvement programs thereafter and in terms of the recommendations and advice there board about how to improve so I think it's really important to understand interrelationships between us we don't have to all be in one place to do that but I think it's absolutely essential that we share information we share intelligence and expertise so that we can work together when we identify something and like to add to that like just to come in terms of the role of health Texan Scotland being that sort focus for knowledge around that complexity that you talk about in terms of the particularly round the microbiology and and keeping that sort of critical mass of knowledge around that and how in the health care environment you you know terms of best practice so we do have a team of with some considerable expertise we've got a number of nurse consultants who are well respected across the infection prevention community who are seen as the go-to place for for advice I think that is that is one of our strengths that we have that we have that self critical mass of knowledge thanks very much Ian Brody the Health and Safety Executive it's a little to one side of the Scottish government agencies sitting beside you could you explain how you how and when you get involved in issues around this topic I think we're not for that last question I was gonna come in and say something that is we do obviously have for example agreements in place with health improvement Scotland because your rate as a healthcare acquired infections really complex area and I mean to make sure that on a case-by-case basis that we either collaborate cooperate or or respect each other's boundaries so we can undertake her work I think in terms of written submission and summarized most of her position on nests in terms we had a GPU a regulator and we do have an interest and health and safety in the workplace and work-related health and safety across the board and if we're talking specific about healthcare acquired infection and we're a remit stretches and we're a policy and application of our law stretches but not normally delve into matters of clinical care and also matters of in patient care and that's an clinical judgement Amos was that clinical judgment and clinical care is something that we don't stretcher at legislation and two others are are obviously involved in that particular you know and in terms of regulatory remit we recognize that other regulators are often base placed to deal with certain matters and that includes healthcare acquired infection hates the demon in place with health impairment Scotland which is probably the most pertinent point here I'm finding perhaps Jim Malone I don't know she would like to comment at this stage clearly issues around the built environment are central to your role can you explain how your rement dovetails with those of your colleagues on fertility and certainly I think really just building on colleagues comments health facility Scotland as an advisory body that sits within national services Scotland and working with health boards providing a range of technical advice and guidance some of which as very specific to two aspects of estates and facilities and maintenance some of which will be done a partnership worse for example health protection Scotland or rather elsewhere those potentially an overlap between the management and use of the state as well as the the creation of the built environment ya know I think it is important to make sure that people understand that there is it's a complex issue how to manage Horst what my background is clinical education as a former nurse and a former job so I'm looking at how how do you I guess support building a new hospital for instance are we putting the right equipment supplies environment in place how much of a influence do I guess do you say it when we're working with contractors and looking at building a new hospital like Dee GRI in the south of Scotland so as I mentioned earlier the the the health facilities in Scotland as an organization as an advisory body the decision to commission a large scale or indeed any sizeable Hospital hospital would be for that territorial port these things don't happen very often and as you've indicated they are the the the provider very complex they were environment once though there so I think the boards do draw on a wide range of experience and expertise wherever possible the organization that I represent does provide advice and a collegiate way through other senior estates and facilities colleagues within health boards as well as infection control colleagues that primarily is done through what's called the Scottish Health technical memoranda which is a range of documents that provides the current guidance which reflects best practice to that time across across a range of the the environmental conditions those memoranda and themselves are tend to be derived from UK level pair guidance but made pertinent to the particulars of the Scottish Environment of code you want to add anything I thought not other than just to say obviously we work very well protection Scotland works very closely and contributes to the development of the guidance with the health facilities combed thank you computing a good morning panel I've got a few questions on monitoring and surveillance and the first questions can the panel confirm or deny that the ordinary routine proactive testing for contamination of the physical environment is for Legionella I'm not able to answer that so I don't have that information yes one of the territorial boards effectively the question arose from evidence that we received from NHS Fife who basically have confirmed an ear view that the only routine proactive work that's been carried out is for Legionella so clearly I was trying to find out whether this is unique to their board whether there's any Scottish government view in this of whether it's more proactive where it being done if not of course if panel members want the right back to us with further information that would be very usefully received by the committee comment there we drill as obviously a specific American or organism which is prevalent not just in in healthcare because we are and there's a specific set of standards which we do enforce LinkedIn as a proof code of practice linked to the management Legionella and water systems so we'd expect Legionella to be monitored analysis one of the one of the particular unique microcosm to this committee is interested and we do have a and then traced and so there's monitored and actually we did some research and before coming here today we don't actually have a record of any in region eli because i've had to intervene on and NHS pre-season health care premises it's cold science can now maybe move on and maybe get question that would feedback from the panel and and the panel's view our boards only word of contamination and building services once patients are infected from a health direction scotland perspective yes you know in terms of the what is what comes in to help Texas comment and I rolled it to check so I am very thoughtful about that previous question as far as I'm aware we don't receive any reports or data around any of proactive testing of the environment for microorganisms of any of any particular sort but as far as health text in cotton is concerned the data we receive is about instance involving pictures that's very useful that's really the point that's right Daniel panel members wish to contribute to say that we use that data then to obviously do proportion and recipes currently thereafter so the data that we have access to both in terms of the national data that's been mentioned but also those local data at which we request when we have target an area and would therefore help us to target where we are so again I'm sure panel members can pick up the theme of my questions it's about being proactive and not just wait until we've got obese rection if I may the you you could look at the point prevalence survey that is done every five years the methodology for that is different is focused on surveying the incidence of potential infection in inpatients so there's more of a proactive but that's a comprehensive survey that's undertaken every five years it does have a very significant influence in terms of shaping policy going forward so there is just just to think just a point of clarification there is that a proactive element of that survey but it's again it is focused on infection on the place is not that necessarily that a patient is suffering from because a lot of the microorganisms that cause infection most of us in this room will have those microorganisms with us today but it's it's people who are susceptible that have issues with such infection one of the points that has been made to us by our witness is that point prevalence studies who are clearly valuable do not capture the infection burden of outbreaks because I Briggs by definition they're episodic and therefore they give our kind of underlying stateless rather than dealing with the the high hazard is that you you acknowledge status is that it'll be the the outbreaks are captured through hours of mentioned the high at the health and infection instant assessment tool which boards have to report so if there is an outbreak and and I say recently we have tightened up with in 2016 I think because there's some categories there's green amber and red as a classification system that goes with that tool depending on the severity of the outbreak I think we tightened up in 2016 so all green even green rated high act assessments are reported so that all goes into you know we have our quarterly figures that we report and we have our annual survey and as we said Healthcare Improvement Scotland use that to guide their inspection regime and could just move on and I think this touches on the point you've just made is can surveillance systems be used to prevent outbreaks infections from occurring in the first place I didn't really well with stumping the panel today I can see that I think you know and I think that would be an a question we'd have to be posed to somebody who's a deep expert in the topic it's something that's out with my technical knowledge of that that topic area it's I think that is a complex question which I think would have a complex answer so I wouldn't say I could I could give you I certainly not never said to give an answer today it's an answer that I can certainly take away if and we could provide a view on that if that would help get that when you see we would need to are somebody with a deep knowledge are you do you mean a microbiological level of understanding what is it that you don't have that we need to access in order to get an answer to that question I mean what what's or what you're asking is as their ass of a proactive testing regime that you could put in place to control or prevent outbreaks yeah and I think that in simplistic terms I think some of my colleagues have touched as irelia's his first point of call would be the construction of new hospitals I mean are we getting this right what's world evidence on this secondly what's the surveillance system likes and the pan already touched on the fire by definition many people in hospital have more impaired immune system so more vulnerable to any potential factions that might not affect some of us here who perhaps have stronger immune systems so prettier all these things together is the more we can do to be proactive to prevent these outbreaks and prevent death and injury in hospitals in the future suppose that's the key points I'm trying to identify and it certainly the there is the and there always will be more that we can do because realistically delivery was we should aspire to to attain zero incidents the reality is that is not deliverable and in reality because as I say the nature of the the threat is continually changing unquestionably you know when we come to look at the design of hospitals I get I say we are it's not something in health Texas Scotland are involved in it in terms of providing expert input so it's a collective exercise and provide like nuts or guidance that we we are always working closely with yeah health facility Scotland to see how we can improve that so there is there is already an element of productivity I suppose where I'm getting slightly confused as there's is that proactivity in terms of influencing and shaping guidance which is ongoing all the time so for example I mentioned that we're already taking the learning from some of the issues in terms of water systems we've done a survey or literature survey on water systems there was reports produced looking at the water systems and there's no an action plan that is looking at how can we change the guidance but I also take that there was a suggestion of a more active routine forward-looking surveillance element if I can so interrupting if I can just come in and use an analogy from another sphere and I've been quenched it in fire prevention for many years and looking back into time from Green fall and before that many of the changes to legislation has happened after tragic fires when in homes for the elderly from people have died and then government is then brought insist stuff sprinklers which has prevented that happening so using the analogy for contamination is there something that we can do now without waiting for tragedies of people dying I've been injured as to dilute proactively a conciliation so that we can design a hospital's better we'd better look at our systems in there precisely to be sort of I think more specific so obviously there's an L so we've talked about the design and the development of guidance we've touched on and I'll star might wish to come in to talk about the inspection regime which is taken forward on the back of the the monitoring and the data that we do the there is soft within the question you asked an issue around should we have because originally we talked about this Legionella issue there's a testing regime for the Legionella I don't know and this is the bit that I personally don't know enough about because you know I'm not consulted nurse' works in infection control but you know in terms of what the literature says in terms of your ability to test the environment for the the birds and if you like and then a nice a test environment not the burden on the individual patient which we do through point prevalence but to test the the built environment through some testing regime III don't know the answer to that question perhaps second trial a final question that might a bit more light and the theme is there any system in place that can pick up invasive fungus light materials like Cryptococcus and the ventilation system before patients become infected the lady clearly inspection is your job are you aware of anything that would preempt this that might assist with avoiding future such infections again I think you need specialist advice is to walk particularly you can put in place I think on a more general sense I don't how helpful that is but if you would bear with me I think that the the inspection evidence that we found over the past ten years there was a significant issue obviously after Vale of Leven and then we had reduction of the inspections we were finding a lot going on which have subsequently been improved significantly over that period of time that also includes things like improve surveillance of maker organism such as MRI seeing Clostridium difficile so I mean that is improved monitoring our local level and we've seen significant reductions are now over a period of time so I would want to say that the evidence shows there has been significant improvements however there are always things that you can do what's important for me is that we have to build and the ability to monitor to have surveillance an anti take action at a local level you can't inspect that n you can only use inspection to encourage that and to look at it and give you an overall picture but what really has been important over the past well as they encourage boards and others to develop the under surveillance and monitoring system so that they are on top of this DND out and they are fully able to take action when it is happening as for the technical bets about you know what would be required to do that I I'm not a specialist in karin-sama anyone else like contributing sorry I suppose just to build on the the point of all health facilities Scotland is all an advisory organization that does provide territorial Bosworth a range of monitoring tools which which they can use and and and those sorts of circumstances one that springs to mind as a system called the hei scribe which is the system for controlling risk in the built environment so as effectively a tool which facilitates collaboration between the facility staff with annotate or abort and infection control staff I pauses a series of questions which are self assess that then comes out with a list of recommendations which can then be prioritized and should force which to then share their findings from from the use of that system with other ports so there's an opportunity for further service practice to be provided both H psi and h FS contribute to the development of the tool and the tool has provided it across all all an NHS bonus thank you a couple of brief supplementary before I am aha it's just a quick sup and there's already processes in place that look at and if you're building a new hospital let's not put a low bounce to nest like seagulls near the dialysis unit that's going to be built so will we already have these kind of issues in place I understand and and I know that when there's unannounced and announced inspections you are looking at the environment and you're looking at hand-washing and direct observation and peer reviews already in process so the processes are already in place is my understanding to look at infection control aspects so am i understanding that correctly from an inspection point of view then then we believe that the processes are in place however for example we visit a hospital we're not necessarily looking at everything at every time we're using intelligence Netherlands to try to target that because what do those are big complex organizations but what we try to do is to take a broad sweep we are looking to be given assurance by the hospital by the board that they are taking these issues seriously and their systems and governance are in place and we sample obviously beyond that to directly check ourselves to see whether that is actually what is happening on the ground or whether the policies are very nice and shiny but actual as not what's going on so from that we can then identify recommendations for improvement as we have in a number of occasions recently and obviously therefore hopefully improve their quality of safety and care for patients one thing that's been highlighted toeses who's responsible for plant rooms in the hospital and are they are they subject regularly to inspection as part of the inspections that you carry out and not not directly but everywhere was an issue that was identified that highlighted that a plant room could be an issue then the team would go and have a look but from a generic safe and clean point of view rather than a specialist you know an MP we will be handing our on to other stuff over there art and that's why we need to be able to affair where an issue of cars that we don't have the specialist expertise on the team to look at you know good morning to the panel I just wanted to ask and very briefly from what you've said in terms of the number of safety and cleanliness expections and what's the rationale behind why these have half since 2014 thank you and it's not so much a ration now as realpolitik if you like we found a number of issues I joined the organization for example 18 months ago and undertook a review of staffing and structure at that point and we had a number of vacancies which we have literally just failed without three new inspectors for example start in the last six weeks who had an air induction period but because of the review they undertook we had told the vacancies develop here at the time for HR processes and other things and so took a little bit longer to fill those we are we also still come now vacancies that were advertising secondly we were also and we are still testing a new methodology and because I think you're surely important that when we visit a hospital we're able to look more broadly as for example we did when we went to the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital we took a little bit of a step back and had to look at the bigger picture rather than just on the front line and so we've been looking at that I have had to allocate some staff time to be able to allow us to develop that and now continue during the year but I would reassure the committee that for example in the coming year our plans for that we'll see the numbers of inspirations start to move back up again also briefly Alico hunt well I think they could good morning to the panel and Mars Briggs has talked about the drop-off in inspections and you cite workforce pressures I had a workforce related question as well and that we all know in this committee about workforce pressures across primary care in the NHS I just wanted to know of what impact those pressures are having on infection control in terms of the responsibilities of to whom infection control falls at a ward level and whether you think that that is there is a direct corollary between the infections of weird to discuss and those brushes who would like to answer that question that's already really a fundamental question I guess is to be confident that the people who are required to do these jobs are actually in post is there anywhere any of the agencies here without any accountability for ensuring that there is an adequate level of staffing to provide safety and I would start by saying that f staffing was an issue there was there was directly imparting on patient safety and here then we would call that our no reports okay so just to be clear that that that would be an issue and it was and a couple of recent reports as well aware and that's exactly what we have done there is changes going through in the safe staffing bill which will allow us still access to a greater degree of intelligence and information about staffing levels and so it's going forward that will become an increasing area that we will be looking at when visiting a hospital because you will have you know data that would help us to do that before we go and we've been a better position to be able to understand that and we can look at it when we've actually visit if it's an issue but this will give us more proactive engagement allow us to check that the moments are doing of information that says because I don't have been the evidence to justify it that says the staffing level is one of the main themes across what we're finding see over the last couple of years said that a couple of the reports that have recently come out you have called that out and said that staffing and pressures on staffing was an issue and infection control was that a typical is that is that the first time that's something you cited it's not the first time but it is not and it's not totally difficult it's not a theme that we I can yet provide evidence on that says if that as a theme are coming across say for example the last two years I think we found with a couple of recent inspections that they are very particular to the circumstances that they are there and I do and I would I would hesitate and ask you not to necessarily and extrapolate those across the country it may well be as my colleague said if I did I may well be that there is a trend you know and by the moment we don't have the evidence to say that that is the case David Collins can be known good morning panel just you know my backgrounds an engineer and I worked and what's a ventilation systems and problems and my LEDs and could I ask how infection controls such as water and ventilation systems as managed you have a novel break and I suppose those two points to that so in terms of the so ultimately responsibility for a specific healthcare geography or the state remains and Astellas the responsibility of that port executive and management team including the the professional facilities and States teams then the board each will have a regime utilizing some of the the tools available from agencies represented today quite to the extent that those are exactly replicated across each type so report I wouldn't be able to say in terms of so that routine monitoring software where there is believed to be an outbreak that then moves on to a separate set of circumstances including the the call or one agency such as HP s where the the national framework has then cited and then that sets a chain of events in motion we only HPS will be asked to provide support to the board on that so exactly as jim has just said there's the national framework still colloquially known as the CNO i'll guru them is the chief nursing officer algorithm is what is colloquially known as whether it was changed in 2015 to the the national framework and that if a board can can make a call to invite health protections government and indeed they do equally h the health care programs only i the health the health care environment spectra can also call HPS in to provide support as indeed can can the scottish government as well and and it does happen i think in the last year it's been invoked i think five times in total which I don't think as exceptional in terms of numbers but the it's the it's very much about putting support in place and some of that support maybe about about almost certainly will be about finding the source and then figuring out you know with with the local board actually what measures need to be put in place and there's very strict guidelines around you know the reporting of that and the production of action plans to deal with that and I think that is one of the reasons why Scotland has been so effective at controlling outbreaks again this is all based on a lot of lessons that have been learned from previous incidents and you mentioned guidance here and how would you help Porsche here and because water and systems are easy task the airborne systems over there ventilation systems and the unborn infections are very difficult to detect so how is a guidance relevant for these systems or do they need updated and how did health boards actually comply with the guidance so the the suite of guidance that health facilities Colton provide previous live real to is the scholarship technical memoranda what parts they are based on Yuki cadence they are made reflect over the Scottish Environment and they do change over time as I'm sure committee members are aware then I sighs engineering becomes more complex all as it changes in terms of even things like from analogue based systems to digital systems then the guidance has to be reflected on that so that so the guidance itself never stands still I think unfortunately sometimes the guidance does have to reflect on incidents have taken place and and understand follow that guidance there needs to be more comprehensively reviewed so for example we are currently looking at father guidance on technical aspects of water systems that perhaps well and the guidance that was written in 2009 so it's also that constant kind of activation and learning environment but it's it's probably important to see that the distinction between the guidance and compliance against the guidance as well as from from my organization as one that is presumed so other than small areas where health facility Scotland would ask for compliance weaved us for compliance with national clinic standards and worth the decontamination of medical instruments so those are two areas that we currently have a compliance aspect against the guidance others again refer back to the board's internal management structures and how they how they use that Gatens to best manage the estate can I ask them how often specialist engineers are used and to test the systems because we have the ability to do it rather than domain HF stuff and can I ask also how common is outbreaks of infection from air water and ventilation system I can settle answer the first part of that question I think you're absolutely right that what we are talking about and some of these cases is highly specialist technical skills it may not be readily available within the NHS Scotland workforce and indeed it may not be cost-effective to try and have that as an end house resource so boards energy health Scotland will go to the market and try and get expert advice on either on Quora guidance or indeed and particular cases where health poor self required that piece and we're awful also mindful though that there's a balance between taking advice from external organisations and being able to use that of inbuilt knowledge if you like and sharing very very recently health boards have asked that they reduce their dependency on third-party contractors and increase the level of authorizing engineers that we would use they would effectively a higher than NHS Scotland and that's the process that were looking at just now trying to get that balance between ensuring that we have captured the best experience in the market at that time as well as building and a resilience of having a single team and it did health reports have asked that that team if it were to be bought and house of canoes that phrase should that then form part of health facility Scotland organization I think that can be called back to individual boards I'm sorry I'm not able to answer the second part of my question in terms of the kind of consequence of them numbers in the second part of the question we touched on earlier that you know as part of our submission of evidence we identified 48 instance in in the last three years that have been attributed directly to the built environment I don't have and we will provide a breakdown of those to see if we can identify how many were attributable to water ventilation but as I also mentioned earlier we we have done literature research to look at the issues internationally to see you know what the incidence is and having read those reports that there are similar instance internationally as we have experienced recently in Scotland so these instance aren't unheard of but we can certainly if it was overused to the committee provide those reports bring me back in convene it and Fred this is David Torrance's line of questioning it's clear from what you said we understand that routine testing for sources of infection is very difficult in terms of ventilation and water supply and and in many cases the first indicator of an outbreak would be inpatient symptoms and can you give us an idea first and foremost what the process is then tracking down the source of that invasion when an outbreak occurs on a ward scene I think you you would have to ask a specialist I've you know I don't think any of us have that experience you'd have to ask a practitioner for that that's fine and second question then in terms of risk planning around infection outbreak and now we're all aware of recent examples where wards are closed we had a ward close in the West in general just this month because of a water contamination outbreak and I imagine risk planning for a single ward being closed as easier than whole hospital contamination and can you talk to us about what what you do in the event of or your plans are for infection outbreak on a whole hospital level and secondly in the in terms of mitigation we know that a hospital recently had to buy tens of thousands of pounds worth of bottled water that those risk management processes are not actually compounding the issue that you know where that water is coming from that it's come from a sterile environment I think it's important to understand the the governance here the first part of your question would be down to the to the boards to determine how they respond to an incident and to contain that I think from an inspection point of view and we will be looking to see what plans they have in place are they robust you know do they make sense do you know how would they apply them as other responsibilities clear at the time and so for a more generic sense we will be looking across to make sure that they were actually an opposition to be able to control something should that happen I think as well it might be important just to mention that healthcare improvement Scotland has the legal power to close a ward to new admissions should we be concerned for patient safety and but it's also important to understand that in the ten years that we've had that we have not used that once because actions have been taken where we were on-site which satisfied us that you know a sufficient action had been taken and in subsequent actions were obviously taken and we followed up Alastair Delaney again I wonder if you could elaborate on the comments you made in your report on the Queen Elizabeth Hospital that you had encountered challenges in the relationship between the estates department and infection control team and I we certainly also had evidence from witnesses that there that if infection control doctors and nurses likewise appeared not to have close working relationships with those managing domestic services in a number of hospitals so I wonder if you could elaborate on those findings please yes I mean I wouldn't want to get into too much detail but obviously we covered it within the published report but it was a feature of what we found in the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital and has associated sites and it's also something that we be concerned about across the country as a whole and because it is absolutely essential that that is good working relationships between the nursing staff and us play only for health and for infection control and the building's staff obviously in that particular circumstance we had quite a large backlog of repairs to be done and the communication was not particularly great around by how those were being managed and what happened when they were being reported and potentially having to be reported again and so it demonstrated that that level of leadership governance was really important the benefit for us is not an inspection was if we were able to stand back and look at that and it became a key feature because the frontline staff are doing as good a job as the acute in the circumstances we give we give place to them and they are should report some of the problems are more systemic and about governance and relationships received evidence also that for example the undertaking of routine maintenance external repairs and external internal midden our repairs on external amendments often is done without consultation with infection control professionals within the hospital in question is that something would you ordinarily as an inspector at would you inspect they are actions of estates departments buildings maintenance people within the hospital or we would that be an only an exceptional cases like the one you've just described yeah it wouldn't be routine everywhere an issue has been you know has been raised so for example if and the case that you mentioned that applies across the country because as a cross-cutting theme I think with the estate that were looking at if you have for example plaster coming from a wall or you have floor tiles you know that are not sealed and to the floor you cannot therefore say that that room is definitely clean you know it can be cleaned but you cannot say that that is clean so therefore that's essential that that is that that is taken forward if we come across that we would then explore that further and try to understand what was being done and how their relationships were and what actions were being taken to deal with these issues and I was thought that what we did in the case of the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital can I ask Jamila and Philip Kaiser to reflect on these points as well because clearly within NHS National Service of Scotland health facility Scotland is responsible for design and commissioning of health service buildings and health protection Scotland is responsible for exactly these kind of infection control and prevention issues does he does the relationship between the two divisions of NSS that you represent is that a close and daily working relationship and if it is why is it not reflected on the ground within Health Boards azure something in the way in which you're dealing with your counterparts in boards which means that you are closely together but the people in boards doing your equivalent jobs are not talking to each other at all Thank You convener I think just to a correct point of detail so Health Service Scotland has no responsibility direct responsibility for design and commissioning or of buildings or any healthcare operations it provides advice to Jo said there's a that would in terms of attempts of the points that have been raised if we look hard where that advice does have a strong connection between Health Protection Scotland I would maybe cite the example of the development of the National Clinic specifications the National Clinic specification as one area where as fastest duration was in 2006 and that effectively covered what would probably be regarded as the routine areas covered by domestic staff within hospitals that set a specification and also introduced reporting regime the specification itself was developed between the HFS staff in conjunction with Health Protection Scotland and it was further extended in 2009 to take impact of of the the fabric of the building so not closed systems that we've discussed earlier in terms of heating and ventilation but those areas that still be cleaned but we would make the meat more problematic by the the fabric of the building so another was difficult to clean areas whether those pillows or other obstructions as I think that's made a good example where that where the guidance has been has been corporatist but can I take you back to the Commission question because of course you're like the Queen Elizabeth Hospital for example would have been commissioned by Greater Glasgow and implied Health Board yes but on the basis of your advice on how to ensure these facilities were correctly designed to avoid health protection risks would that be a fair way that describe I think it advice yeah we we would hope that all of our attempts to report colleagues would call upon the advice that's made available through those through those in suite of technical memoranda but you wouldn't sit down with them at the commissioning stage to say have you thought about this there's no us know for we currently have no formal compliance or assurance rollin as purely technical in advising other meals to areas that's great thanks very much Phil of Kaiser just really to comment on the organisational sort of closeness which you reference oh yes health facilities Scotland and Health Protection Scotland sit buffers parts of national service Scotland that's I think academic to the nature of the relationship I think the relationship would would be similar in terms of the working relationship regardless of whether not we sat in the same organization indeed health tection Scotland work equally is closely with health care improvement Scotland and other partners are all important than this so NHS National Education Scotland have an important role to play in terms of the education of the the broader workforce you know not just the national but the the workforce in boards and there are other partners as well in this so is a quite a complex piece but I just thought just to be clear that you know I think Jim touched on it that because we're in the same organization doesn't mean to say that there's ourselves level of integration that there wouldn't be otherwise but the the close Whorton that you've described a national level apparently does not is not reflect I couldn't say category only things obviously that there may be instances of good practice and incidence of less good practice across across the board there will be variation across the board what what I can say is you know because a lot of the role of hepatitis Cohen is that support if there is an outbreak if there is an outbreak one of the things that help detection Scotland does do will come in and provide guidance around who needs to be in there in in that situation admittedly this is more in the the reactive situation where their husband and I've great in terms of pulling together the incident management team that's going to oversee the control if it's a significant outbreak and then there's a need for an incident management team trueness to be run that table you know that the infection control team needs to be there that you do need some day from estates there so that would there would be guidance and advice offered in that situation certainly sorry just take it again to perhaps talk about the the HEI scrape tool that I mentioned earlier that actually and contains within it prompts and suggestions where facilities under fetching metal teams should work together as they move through that piece of the tool effectively used I think would be a useful until mature Olinger if you like that well they're both the parts of the organization were we're on the same page so I think the tool does provide and can clearly provide opportunity for that conversation to take place if I may say likewise you haven't talked much about the infection control manual help Texas condors which does which does the same from a health protection perspective and and I did reference that we are working on an action plan following some of the issues in terms of water systems which we'll look at how those are better managed and provide advice at a board level but as Jim identifies it is guidance and obviously what we can't comment on and maybe that's where the inspection regime can comment is how that guidances is put into place so much blood thank you good morning to file I think kind of taking taking those points forward in terms of input into a into the safety features were talking about today as I was wondering good frontline staff we've heard a lot a variety of investigations have done in here's lack of input from a lack of ability from from frontline clinical staff and putting into various various rules so what influence to do the harm or what Connexus are taking of the Olympic for example in facilities management because it seems to me they're being at the frontline would have an important for them into this kind of safety issue so the the approach taken certainly and major capital projects follows very extensive guidance published by Scottish government and throughout the the pathway of that from initial assessment of the options through to outlying person's case indeed final business case and encourages multidisciplinary theater multi-agency approach to that so I do believe that the the guidance encourages an environment whereby all interested parties the stakeholders would be able to input clearly I can't comment on the reality of that in terms of what happens out with specific instances but I would suggest that the the guidance as it stands allows for that opportunity to take place okay and so it shows you have you the guidance which would give clinical staff some sort of shall we see authority to have the concerns raised within this thing within this environment would that be your understanding it certainly and in those examples where I've been more closely involved I have seen lots of evidence where the the design and operation of a facility whether that's with with had part of a building or indeed a building itself has never done in isolation I think then the the the question I would ask then is where the governance stops there's a government stop at board level or the European citizens have input above what about governing governments of the board or as you'd expect the board that the lover and the plans are already in place I think you probably going to get slightly different answer from each agency in terms of in terms of the organization I look after then the coffers to be stopped at board level we would no we would not expect anything to be brought back to us as an organization I think is important see though that health facility Scotland does work collegiately worth all boards via a group called the strategic facilities group which has representatives from Scottish government all territorial and national or special ports and representatives of health facilities Scotland so they don't work in isolation but in terms of the formal governance there is no formal governance report back into HFS as it stands agree with Jim said in terms of formal governance I think one of the points to stress though in terms of the shaping that guidance that guidance in terms of from the health protection of Scotland perspective is shaped very much by our experts are specialists who themselves have been frontline staff you know they haven't just gone to University and become frontline staff overnight they they've got a lot of frontline experience and which is why they've the no work in Health Protection Scotland they've got that experience that they can bring to bear to shape the the guidance but in terms of the governance question we have no sort of formal governance beyond that guidance other than where we're reacting to an outbreak just say from our perspective we are you know we are not part of the governance Jane and relation to this either the the boards are obviously the primary governance mechanism and in upwards from that discourage government where we can escalate concerns should we need to do that we feel insufficient action has been taken our local level I think one other thing I would mention notice our to do with buildings but it could be as the healthcare improvement Scotland hosts the whistle blowing you know helpline and and other means of gathering intelligence and data from individuals or from groups and we would do an assessment of that no matter what the subject matter as it doesn't apply to just what you're looking at here but it could and we would then get involved you know and taking that forward as part of a potential investigation or it may spark some other kinds of work should that be required but the first stage would be an assessment if I can't just hide evidence in here on on the effectiveness of the the whistleblowing him within within a chest and the thing that I forgot to say that there would be concerns about that I'm really I mean myself suppose H is probably the most enveloping body here around the ability of witnesses are taking evidence from when it's front singling staff as witnesses and escalating their concerns so is it your understanding that that that that is taking place as part of part of this the investigation the investigation so out so looking at what we're looking at in terms of you know issues that indicate the Queen Elizabeth you know the staff staff are being kind of frontline clinical staff a part of that investigation and you know three days I I can't comment on the investigation clearly we are expectation would be more generally the frontline staff are essential in terms of you know fitting their their views and their information and we would expect to see that on inspection we will be asking frontline staff about how their thoughts and ideas and views are taken into account in terms of taking things forward and we would always do that you know we we have that mechanism by which F we have a concern that we can escalator through the boards and then further on was every wish if it was a complaint then obviously that should be handled in this in the normal way which would be through their boards complaint procedures and then on to the SPS oh but we do have that whistle blowing you know and lying as well should people feel that they are not being satisfied with or not but I can't comment directly on their the ongoing investigation we've had evidence that microbiologist and indeed infection control doctors within Greater Glasgow and Clyde have become whistleblowers because that seemed to them the only way they could achieve change in things they consider it to be an issue it's not something that would concern health care improvement Scotland and if so what would you do about it yes if we can sell us and if that was coming through to us obviously don't want to come and details benefit where I was coming through tests it depends on what it was but we will be looking to take that up with the organization's concerned but not individual complaint you and the media looked at individually but something like that would be more of a trend that we would then be asking for an explanation as to why the staff felt that way from the relevant board just to pick up one more Alistair was saying in terms of how because it doesn't this doesn't just sit with healthcare improvements going on how this or national agencies would come together to maybe pick up some of this that might be considered softer intelligence rather than hard data in terms of numbers so there is a group called the sharing intelligence for Health and Care Group that's got some members here may be familiar with it it has a broad remit I sat through a few meetings of it and each of its mostly scrutiny bodies my organisation so I have both health techs in Scotland and information services division in the business unit I'm director for so we come and we bring our evidence other bodies care Inspectorate or at Scotland a National Education Scotland come a range of different bodies come and they share the evidence that they've got and there's an opportunity through that group to engage with boards and and raise and raise issues and some of the software evidence that you might get through self whistleblowing could be considered in that group just to pick up are we sup from Brian wittles question was about Tim what influence the clinical staff have over facilities management so my where the NHS on fruits and gala we have an environment team that is the infection control leadership led with facilities management and clinical staff on the same group and they all work together to identify issues that might be potential infection control issues so I guess my question is if we're pulling back from just the Queen Elizabeth and looking at all the facilities that are NHS facilities and hospitals across Scotland I'm assuming each board has equivalent kind of groups that will meet and discuss and work together and then escalate issues if needed so we've got the facilities people and infection control leadership and clinical staff all talking to each other and the evidence that that is that it's not the case in any particular part of the country again I'm sorry to say that I don't know clearly you'd have to I am I my instinct would suggest that the the way that I see best practice shared across facilities colleagues at boards is it that if something was working well then they would let other board colleagues know I couldn't give the committee and assurance that such a thing was replicated 14 times to close the the 14 attempts to report as they started to think I would be questioned for each board unfortunately can I just ask Ian Brodie in terms of Health and Safety Executive just to be clear we've heard various questions and answers around what would prompt different actions on the part of the inspector at the environmental and health care environment inspector and what roles the other bodies here might play what would prompt you to investigate a systemic failure leading to compromising of health and safety in our health care run I've been very careful not to share with my area of responsibility during the questions and answers here today and we do have an interest in in NHS Scotland and the ports and to go back to one point leaders we would also see the boards as the the the body who would be held accountable for and if he wasn't and who should be managing the rest of creatives apart of that activity the large portion of our work is is focused on health and safety international health and safety issues and we do inspect health portal we do investigate and not so much on the area of healthcare acquired infection which is the substance of today there is a occasions there are occasions when we do get involved in healthcare acquired infection matters but it's a very clear set of guidelines between that wouldn't wouldn't be ordinarily they're not reported to us and which is a tracker for us to be involved we do we then be looking at an outbreak where as evidence of clear standards was a field to be made with as evidence of systemic few years feeling to meet those standards and we are there's a clear evidence that that break has resulted in the death or the two would bring that evidence to your attention ordinarily it would normally come to attention by their kin office procure physical service and but obviously member employees and members of the public aren't able to raise concerns with us there are concerns advice team may also and for example of our formal connection to the health care directive that compactly didn't we talked about earlier on is we do have an agreement in place with health container inspector and F F we do fare inspectors and identify issues wished for within each is remit there are mechanisms in place to which is and likewise and in depending on the subject matter what the paint and I will take that forward either collaboratively or individually so there's mechanisms in place and and certainly talking for each AC inspectors they're very clear and watch or AJC's relies and what subject matter she'd be today another question for Alastair Delaney is around iron pot indeed possible for Jamila around the evidence we've received that health facility standards against which and affections are made can be seen as confusing by health care professionals so for example the suggestion that current standards applied to new build but that they don't apply to existing premises that's come back and some of the evidence as a perception within health personnel can you confirm whether the currently existing standards apply to pre-existing buildings to older buildings and and be very clear as to what is and is not expected in terms of standards so generally convener I would say that where standard is updated it takes cognizance of whether it should be prospective or retrospective on the majority of cases this standard would be for moving forward for a prospective and that's not to say that if they if they change and standard or the change and same regulations were such that are hard to be retrospective they would be considered but very often was a cognizance of the impact of such a change and the consequential impacts of that so for example if there had been a change and in relation to say fire safety regulations or other regulations that would require extensive retrospective a treatment as opposed to prospective treatment then a judgment made on that basis but if I look at the last two or three changes that have gone through then they've always they have not been retrospective so does that mean to take a complex site with buildings of different age I think immediately a forester Helen Aberdeen but there are other sites which would likewise have old and new buildings does that mean that there's a whole variety of different standards apply in different parts of that campus well the look definitely different well sorry try and answer the question precisely and there is a there is a possibility within a large estate that the the technical advice provided safe from one decade to the next would would differ so yes an abscess case if I think of the speed at which the technical member and it's not accept of changing you know every every week or every month and they do last for a for a period of year so I think that as a potential that one an older piece of the state would have preferred to memorize that we have since been updated I'm gonna ask all of this understood linear then in inspecting against the standards does not rely eighty cause any particular challenge for your teams if they're inspecting different premises on the same site against different standards I think that the benefit as you'll know that before we ever go anywhere on the other side so we're aware of any differences that there would be there and and I think in terms of your initial point about confusion and I think it's important for everyone to understand that we we are using this the standards which are developed by HP s and H pairs rather than us developing something ourselves and so that is one set for everyone but obviously if we're going to say we would understand the differences before we ever went down convenor I wanted follow in the line of questioning with regards to new built in NHS Scotland estate and specifically given the cases that we've seen over recent years and certainly in recent months is it fair to say that we've seen substandard works and construction in some of these new builds there's their evidence that new development has not taken into account all of the matters that you've described this morning so I think if I take the [Music] trying to understand the hierarchy of of guidance versus standards versus regulations so they they function of the SH TMS that the the technical memoranda is predominately guidance the guidance is written with reference to standards or codes of practice and indeed regulations but it doesn't repeat them because they set in statue or otherwise so that again would be clearly the responsibility of the commissioning organization whoever that may be ordinarily a territorial boards to ensure that they had feel compliance worth everything from regulation diamond and the guidance as it stands as as they perhaps so I wrote to compliance so that if the guidance is there then you can see that you to comply to those regulations standards on the proof course of practice they exist that we're seeing these cases so I only would comment as to whether they get the guidance Isis started so the guidance it stands is there for health ports to use and rely on but not in isolation I couldn't comment as to whether our cases of projects have been completed you know would would have would fail a compliance test if there was such a thing because of course there isn't a compliance tests against like aids and clearly well there is as at Lewis next level was often a hierarchy again against a court of practice or a regulation or or a standard and I'm not aware of any any feelings in those aspects if I may I mentioned at the start the the the changing nature of the built environment the standards are changing so I can't comment as Jim can either on the standard of building but for example we have you know a shift to single rooms and that's admirable in so many senses you know and I'm sure a lot of patients really appreciate the greater number of single rooms available however it does come with a change in the nature of the risk in that if you're looking at water systems and each room has its own sink then where as dare I say in years gone by you may have had a much less number of sinks and a ward with a number of patients clearly the level of risk will be different if you as almost an unintended consequence if you like so like I said we we are I think a learning system so we we perhaps you could we have anticipated maybe some of the issues concerned with that perhaps with with the power of hindsight but we are responding to that and learning from the changing nature of those I just give that as as one example and you know given the responsibilities as far as where where is then to the 14 health boards to sign off these projects with your support M is their need for that to be reformed and looking towards specifically dedicated expert infection control teams to be part of that it doesn't seem like we have 14 dedicated teams doing that for new builds across the country and so it sounds like it's very patchy to say the least there's that is that right in terms of my interpretation and of what we're doing today when we look at new builds before NHS Scotland takes ownership of them I think cover term I would I would comment that I supposed to picking up in fells point that in terms of like that continual learning environment I know from walk that as currently going on that a group that I reference to Ella called the strategic facilities group and they're continually trying to understand how they can they can better work I think it's and when a comment was made earlier today that the the incidence of very large complex Hospital builds and as relatively small which means that that sort of shared learning opportunity it becomes quite difficult so it may be once every ten years and dealer may be once in a career for a lot of people working at editorial board that are involved in our project so I think the the facility groups and other agencies are looking sue so how can you gather that that how can you sure about shared learning for one project to the next as it lost mmm I think that's important you know for myself was a loathing MSP we have and the new royal circuits and same construction company but obviously different design sets have been in place and so you know we hope we see no incidents in the new hospital but the guarantees we need to see and any retrospective fitting for example which needs to take place hey that's then followed through I think's important finally I just wanted to ask because we've we've been asked to maybe refer to specialists and by the panel do we have these specialists in Scotland today you can do this work when we're looking at ventilation specialists for example who do you use em when you undertaking this work probably refer back to my earlier comment we we have set up a look at the my own area we do have a number of specialist models whether that covers absolutely every aspect of the built environment I've been like to say however I think it would be it's important to recognize that both balls under Deeb's health facility Scotland do rely and do go to external market place to make sure that we are providing that advice that cutting-edge advice from others the literature review that fell referenced a lot earlier committee question it's also making sure that in terms of all the healthcare systems indeed out with the UK and Europe that we're trying to get that best practice so there's something about the technical expertise I think it's also something about the there also that scientific expertise is provided that there in forms of guidance and can you say in I know from some of the correspondence I've received I'm sure the members across the Parliament have and the construction sector know each other and often in a competitive world we'll talk about each other but I know from some of the correspondence I've had which I've raised with a cabinet secretary ongoing concerns um do you ever instigate discussions around concerns which are raised earlier and before NHS Scotland take ownership of of these buildings so whether the profits are concerned whether that's a reflection for the lesson observation it and again I'm sorry the sales look it depends but it does depend on or not that the ongoing relationship is like an ongoing conversation between the the boards or the commissioning organization and the HFS and on the whole I do believe that was a strong collegiate working relationship but sometimes that's the case where we need to understand the respective roles and responsibilities and where a board has made a decision to take forward a project and then we have no automatic right if you like in terms of that sort of scrutiny piece right Adele requirement knowing that can engage us in the vase versus the audit compliance and a piece that we currently don't have final final question in terms of these projects then do you ever have concerns around projects being awarded based on savings potentially I'm genuinely not aware of any project or contract that that's awarded through a single lens if we can use that freeze convene just brief follow-up on Mars briggs questioning about specialists i'm acutely aware that as we are changing the model of care that we are delivering in terms of building new hospitals in a different way than we used to and that there are unknown unknowns dr. gayle Donald Rumsfeld but this a knowledge gap might therefore exist I mean we may have you know specialists who know forensic ly how to keep a sink apparatus clean in a in a bedroom or how to clean and keep air duct units functioning in a hygienic way but these same specialists might not know then for the example the impact of a helicopter landing on a helipad which is covered in pigeon droppings and are you concerned that there is a knowledge gap and would we know who to ask if we identified through the the various inquiries on going into incidents and that we do have that knowledge gap I am NOT consent as a knowledge gap insofar as I think I reassured that we have an open learning organization as NHS Scotland I think it would be crazy to assume that we were we fully understand one of the first things we talked about early this morning was that fast moving change in environment and that's not just the way that health is operated within it's a construction and build but indeed the way that construction and build moves and other healthcare environments and we and health so with Scotland with a fairly strong relationship both at UK and Beyond level to make sure that we have that open allowing opportunity that others can learn from us and we can learn from those and are you confident that in terms of infection control whether that's the specialist supports the clinicians on the ground or the workers on the ground who are charged with inflation control I'm are sufficient they have sufficient continuous training so that they're on top of you know the we understand there's an arms race really that exists between you know the developing infections and the fact that they become resistant to traditional techniques and do we have a complex of suite of training to upskill those workforce that workforce which is in charge of infection control with our understanding about the developing nature of viruses and bacteria I'll pick that for me so we do have a program and it is an integral part I mentioned earlier on NHS national education Scotland who are a key partner in this so in terms of developing any action plans we're continually looking at well you know it's no point us just writing a piece of guidance if we don't don't think about how do we then take that out to educate frontline staff in its application so it is it is most certainly a key component and just if I may just go back to this issue of the unknown unknowns if you like in that surveillance of how do we ensure that we we are trying to keep up with that arms race the I did reference earlier the the European figures that the position Scotland quite strongly but that that you know that weren't working in a UK context and work in a European context and seeing what's going on we mentioned the literature reviews that we've done that are looking at international context so that surveillance is going on all the time well I think it's it's not was about specialist knowledge or training and sometimes as we've found recently it's also about accountabilities and responsibilities and clarity about that so that as the healthcare environment develops it can some things become unclear who is responsible for something more single rooms you have therefore more sinks and toilets but if those are not getting used for example who's actually responsible for the flushing regime in relation to that so I think it's important that the governance and a sense keeps up with the development and healthcare so it's not always just about training it's also about I think being having a clarity amongst all the stuff including ancillary stuff not just clinical stuff about who's responsible for war and keeping those operating procedures if you like up to date can I just go back to the question I asked a little earlier about health facility stunned Scotland standards can I just confirm a linear view that all buildings you inspect reach the relevant standard that would be your expectation and what you would require too and it would be an expectation that the standards are met and we would obviously rather we cannot check every single standard every single visit quite clearly but we would use intelligence and evidence to see you know if there's anything to give us thoughts about looking at something in particular and again and you would apply that intelligence that approach whether it was existing buildings or new builds absolutely thank you convener I'm interested in looking at some of the issues around cleaning the environment for instance because if we're comparing new builds with older estate you know and there's the issues around what makes somebody susceptible to an infection you know it's the immunosuppressed that bone marrow neutropenic compromised patients that are the ones that are most at risk so if we're talking about new bills and all the pipes and air while the same issues is in the older st as well so cleaning is integral to infection true a prevention actually so I'm assuming that we've got everything in place to make sure that our cleaners are educated prepared and I know that is about the not just the clinical teams it's about everybody having a responsibility to wash their hands but the cleaning of the environment is essential as well so I'd be interested in comments about that I would just go back again to my LF point I think that the and so a staff cleaning staff it's absolutely essential that they understand the roles and responsibilities that they are trained appropriately so they understand what they have to do and why they're having to do it and that dovetails with the clinical input and so that they can understand what is required and how they can accommodate the the one that has to be done and that is certainly something that we look out on inspection as evidenced by recent reports a report a national report that circulated by HFS on compliance the national cleaning specification that I referenced earlier the the current 2009 one indeed the most recent report was published probably about two months ago six to eight weeks ago and that identifies using a relatively simple red amber green per identifies our allocation adherence to those specifications as well as those sheer planning opportunities that are created by the the mix of age to state okay in one of our submissions I think I read that if a room was visibly clean or it looked tidy then it might be skipped from cleaning but it would seem to make more sense to me that you you can't see microorganisms on the bedside Locker or whoever but so a regular cleaning routine would need to be implemented no matter whether a place was visually looked okey so I would imagine that that would be the best practice I can't remember the absolute detail of the specification but I would be surprised if it was based on a visual only inspection but I'm happy to to refer back to the Committee on that we were told in one hospital current climbing conforms a dynamic risk assessment for the first three days of a patient's day in other words if it appeared clean then killing would not be carried out on that day is that something that would fail an inspection I think it depends on the context and their circumstances I think we would be looking for information about how we can be assured and how the hospital can be assured that that area is just an Delta which is acceptable and rather than be prescriptive ever seeing what it has to be I think we will be asking for assurances as to how that is being managed and Etta is being looked at the same witness told us and I don't doubt that this is correct that virtually all hospitals in the Western Hemisphere and further afield King patient rooms or bed spaces at least once a day but that's not a requirement currently in Scotland that's not something you would require hospitals to be able to demonstrate again apology Katrina I would certainly happy to the firefighters Committee on the absolute detail of the specification but I don't have it to mind okay thanks very much there was another witness who talked to us about ventilation and said that give a couple of examples inadequate ventilation systems have been installed new build hospitals these are not fit for purpose for specialist patient groups such as bone marrow transplant and hematology wards and also said the adoption of positive pressure ventilation rooms room design throughout a number of Scottish hospitals is an adequate to protect isolated immunosuppressed under vulnerable patients this really follows on from Mijares questions but specifically on ventilation are those approaches to new build hospitals that are members of the pound recognized Jim Miller it's not something I think I could comment on other than to suggest that I have clearly very technical area and it's not don't think there's anyone and that's been asked for the committee would have that expertise who would who would make the final choice on equipment and systems such as ventilation where does the responsibility for installation and choice of a ventilation system life depending on the mortal of contract used it would be the the commissioning organization so in the case of a large hospital would be the territory would undo you as HFS do you lay down standards that ventilation systems must comply with that are designed to reduce healthcare infectious and infections dude lay down low standards and other choices made only within those standards by the commissioning organization so back back to the standards then in the sense the standards of their as guidance we would expect the expect them to be adhere to we have either continued to use which we talked about the the review of the guidance on water and water systems just given it the vast increased the complexity I think the same could be said for for ventilation systems and changes to that so it's an ever-changing landscape yeah is there any evidence that you're aware of where our new build hospital in recent years has disregarded or failed to comply with guidance on these systems no I'm aware that we you know we've already seen a massive reduction in central venous access device infections over recent years because we know that you should only put central lines in in an area that's clean with positive pressure environment like an operating theater or a clinical room that's only for line insertion so we're seeing that already so everybody is aware that there are places where invasive procedures need to take place and and that's set up as a standard so I just want to reiterate the fact that you know we we have seen a reduction in line infections or surgical site infections because good clinical practice is in place and that knowledge is shared be Stone inspections and a and then information that shared throughout the infection control experts network that's I mean I'm proposing that because I know that's a fact Allison yes commuter I think that is certainly the case I think that the improvements have been significant the sharing of good practice has been strong because everyone has safety and patient care that they're harmed so everybody wants to learn from from everyone else so there have been significant strikes that are always going to be places where you know something has not quite gone right we need to identify those fix them and move forward perspective a government level there's the antimicrobial healthcare-associated infection policy group which obviously health protection Scotland support and inform but they take the policy that comes from from that and they take it forward in an anti mine to microbial resistance and health care healthcare associated infection group of their own and indeed that is being incorporated as part of the broader health protection network so that there are well established processes for bringing that together and sharing to make sure that we are continually updating the guidance that we're providing supplementary in terms of reporting up to Scottish government in that context then is it two cases of an infection in one hospital before ministers are made available misters are made available are only informed I would have to check the detail of the national framework to confirm that but it is is all well specified and if the committee would like a copy of the national framework that that's very readily supplied useful and do you do any work around the fact you know people are in hospital often with compromised immune systems and so in terms of em you know when there is a case of someone dying the reporting around that whether or not Hospital inquired infections played a direct part in that in terms of the figures I don't think it's necessarily clear sometimes around and you know a death certificate for example that information would be available I'm not sure in terms of how readily available that is but if the if the committee particularly wanted to find more about that but certainly that is something that we could take away if you wanted some some data around the the level of mortality achievable to healthcare associated infection before I bring in bright little one specific point arising from the British Medical Association submission they questioned the need for Scotland to have its own guidance for healthcare premises and said that one one of the consequences of that separate guidance was that it was harder to get external experts and training for what's a relatively small market maybe we already had some discussion around that question there external experts is that is that a point that is recognized and if so what would your response be Jim over to your comments if a current convener first announced at specific questions the the guidance if it's based in UK guidance as has changed as little as possible and in some cases not changed at all it's only changed to reference if there's a definite regulatory regime and Scotland or the listen in other parts of the UK or if there's something a fundamental change in healthcare practice so it's just the incidence of single rooms that Phil mentioned earlier so the changes are not it's not a rewrite it's just to make sure that it's appropriate to the Scottish context I sort of computer I wonder if I could just go back to a point that was that you asked me earlier around a adherence to the guidance of just and checking my notes there is a current internal report between HFS and Greater Glasgow and Clyde for their consideration where it talks on at least one occasion that I can see from my note that adherence to the technical memoranda is not possible and to be absolutely confirmed that meets the requirements and it's asking Glasgow for comments I just want to clarify I think my comment was not to my knowledge so that is something that suggests that we have asked equation of the board when they need invite heaters on it peers that they may have fallen below the standards because they say they can't implement the standards it's not the kind implement standard that's when we have looked at a particular piece of water pipe work that we are not able to confirm that a Misa standard perhaps because I and again I'm not a class but maybe because it's a closed system and we can't confirm understood thanks very much Thank You convener we we understand that we're currently at the Queen Elizabeth's of setting it around 300 maintenance jobs as a biologist just a point of clarity is that is that what you would expect for from what from hospital by age and size is that it's not normal from our say be so that number is quite high okay and with that the question in does that then potentially pose a fit to patient care then that kind of maintenance plan walk well anything like that we potentially was a rescue to patient care the question is how responsive the board are to and the maintenance backlog and how responsibly after dealing with them and they need to prioritize that list obviously and that's what they've done so that they can focus on the areas of highest risk and make sure the progress is made and in relation to that as you see from the report that we published the board provided an action plan but I was going to deal with all the recommendations including not as as one so they are taking fall of thanks to our satisfaction as it stands at the moment obviously we will share their progress a little date I think that one of the question you would ask them is maintenance given the priority and the funding that potentially deserves a decision well above my paper it is - rather a sufficiently funded to do so say that the priorities have been set by Greater Glasgow to be know how safe or what process they follow to set those priorities and I couldn't be able to give you detail about her data table but yes we would be asking and the board however has said those priorities and obviously patient safety and care repeal the Barrett that last Brian I think follows to that communal thing when our maintenance jobs at the Queen Elizabeth still responsible responsible health workers the contractor still retains some of that responsibility and I do know in detail but it's not as I understand it call it's a better place it's not a PFI boat so I think the responsibility lies with the Health Board to meet those those improvements I would do I would note that the 300s across all the sites as you mentioned earlier I'm not just the new belt and obviously some of the older boats you know as significant issues by its very nature which is what was your original question which does make it difficult and we all understand that but that's the position they were in in the country at the moment just to pick up on brain resource question that if 300 maintenance jobs are required some of them might be as simple as a light bulb change so that wouldn't be an infection control issue so prioritizing them on severity of risk radar board green red beam you really need to do this right now would need to be part of the consideration and I'm aware that there are facilities monitoring tools that are used to help monitor other facilities but some are the contractors responsibility like if a sluice was required in a particular clinical area because maybe in the original design build it wasn't in the right place that is a bigger job than changing taps or sinks or light bulbs so that has to have a maybe a more planned process off of a engagement so that that would they need to be have a different priority I'm assuming in clearly an absolute cadet they are not all of the same order I mean the number itself doesn't tell you how huge amount because it depends on the nature of what those things were and some of them are easily effects can be done immediately some of them we take a longer term but also some of them are more important than others and when you look at patient safety so absolute or the case you would have to delve into the detail to be able to understand better what those things are I think I understood your previous answer to say that you would you would ask Glasgow and Clyde health word how they'd set priorities not would include presumably asking who had been involved in the certain priorities of course and we will be we will be checking that to make sure that there's a prioritization and a rationale for our prioritization that it involves clinical staff and not only the state staff of course okay understood that's really helpful thank you very much Brian little did you have one you and I'm compassion okay excellent thanks very much if my last question we we've already touched on the issue of whistleblowing and so on and I wondered and the fact that members of clinical staff have felt the need to go to become whistleblowers in order to draw attention to concerns they have been your are any of your organization's the type of organizations to which people can go who are members of the public or members of hospital staff and direct their complaints or their concerns directly and with a consequence that you will do be able to do something about it understood leaning yes it is possible however the the the issue that people have to understand and it's always a difficulty for us as that people raise their individual concerns about their individual treatment and if that's the case it's a complaint to the board which they after for that process which then goes to the Scottish public sector Ombudsman and thereafter if they are unhappy with that complaint and we can't get in the way of that process so we do have members of the public we contact us but we have to then take that and extrapolate it out and ask if thought of generic or general issues and which are applicable across a wider range rather than investigate an individual circumstance we do use it an intelligence however because then we get that kind of information we can see if that of trends or if there she's building up over time in a particular area and we can use that to inform further action that we can take so that would be a piece of advice Ian Brodie similar answer yes people can raise members of the public employees staff can raise concerns with us and as information the website but they will be triaged against our regulated immortal and we are area of jurisdiction rests that's that's I'm sure very helpful for members of the public and particularly concerned members of medical staff to understand you've you've mentioned on a number of occasions that you felt that the expertise that we were seeking to access wasn't within your particular territory so there's a very general question to ask if there are other witnesses or other organizations you feel we ought to hear from in order to address some of the questions that we've discussed today but not fully a result would there be any nominations from the witnesses of other witnesses from among we ought to hear it would depend on a specific question I mean I mean obviously we've covered a range of question from high level strategic organizational issues which I think the panel are equipped to deal with down to some very source specialists so of issues which actually we're not equipped to deal with you know I think in all of our organizations we rely on quite a large number of staff to help that that collective knowledge so it would pay a panel particularly if the committee particular wanted to explore a specialist topic in detail then perhaps we could advise but given the range of questions that we've had it is quite difficult to to identify a particular witness that is only from from a health protection perspective unless there was this particular topic that the committee wishes to explore Thanks I would you know when we're talking about 14 health boards in your experience is there one you think is getting this right in terms of inspection and looking towards this and future proofing the NHS estate the I mean if you look at the figures some boards are doing better than others it's it's it's not a secret that actually we've talked quite a lot of it Glasgow and and some of the concerns about the Queen Elizabeth actually if you look at Glasgow as a health board they actually are doing better than the Scottish average so again I just say that to sort of try and put things into context there will be pools of good practice that can can be drawn again it depends because some boards will be good at some particular areas of practice and others you know again if it's for example of its in terms of commissioning new hospitals again that's a difficult one to call because they do it so infrequently but there will be other examples so I'm sure it depending again on the area Busch you wish to explore the you could find a board that was a an exempt lot compared to the rest thanks very much there will be the official report of this session will be published later today I would ask witnesses to reflect on the questions that were raised during the session and I'm not not fully answered on and by all means come back to us if other thoughts occurred to you in in those terms you also I think a number of you have promised to provide further information be very grateful if that could be available by Tuesday and oh that's quite sin in terms of working days but I would be helpful to us if we were able to have access to any further information you've offered to provide bye-bye by this time next week thank you all for your answers to the many questions we have raised it's much appreciated I will now suspend this session and we will resume in private session

5BZODJSWJ08 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5BZODJSWJ08 | GTR (GUIDED TISSUE REGENERATION ) | [Music] hi all welcome to periodontology lecture series every dental student is familiar with the term gtr that is guided tissue regeneration in this short lecture class we will discuss in a very simplified pictorial way about this concept we will have a quick recap on peridontium it includes the investing gingiva and supporting alveolar bone paired on ligament and cementum whenever bacterial insults occur changes happen in the gingiva and periodontium the initial gingivitis can be reverted easily with proper treatment but when it progress to periodontitis with attachment loss and bone loss the treatment and healing becomes little complicated if we are providing adequate treatment including non-surgical and surgical therapies the tissues start to heal the region can be repopulated by different types of cell the arrow a indicates the cells that's the epithelial cells b is the connective tissue cells of gingiva c are the alveolar bone cells and d cells from periodontal ligament we can imagine a car race so whoever wins the race repopulates the area and determines the fate of healing if the epithelial cells repopulate then it forms the long junctional epithelium if the connected tissue cells of gingiva comes then connective tissue adhesion with parallel fibers form if bone cells repopulate then root resorption and ankylosis occur these all result in compromised repair in the diagram the first three picture depicts repair which is not desirable because it is prone for recurrence of the disease ideally what we want is regeneration of lost alveolar bone around ligament and cementum which can occur only if periodontal ligament cells repopulate this regeneration is the most desirable outcome so we need to do something that is we need to exclude the undesirable cells by creating a barrier this picture of aircraft might help you to memorize it we need to exclude the cells which we don't want to repopulate and make the region favorable for the repopulation of peril ligament cells which forms the basis of melchia's concept in the diagram imagine red cells as epithelial and connective tissue cells from gingiva which we don't want to interfere in healing and blue consider asparal ligament cells which help in attaining proper regeneration now coming to the clinical scenario in the surgery after depriving the area and removing granulation tissues bone grafts may be used and root biomodification may be done and over that barriers that is membranes can be used to exclude the undesirable cells there are different types of membranes and different generations of membranes non-resolvable membranes like millipores teflon were first used but they needed a second surgery to remove it at a later time that is around three to six weeks they are non resorbable then resolvable membrane scheme like aussie quest bioguide at the zop they were used now reservable membranes with growth factors are also available gtr is more predictable in vertical defects class 2 ferguson involvement in teeth with less than general recession teeth having wide keratinized in java thick chinchiva and in those teeth with wide interdental space it is most favorable in teeth with minimum mobility and in those persons with good oral hygiene few measurements we need to keep in mind while placing membranes that is the apical border of membrane should be three to four mm applicant to the defect laterally 2 to 3 mm beyond the defect one more measurement that is it should be placed 2 mm a pigel to the cemetery enamel junction of the teeth membrane exposure should be avoided and stability should be maintained with proper suturing techniques if conditions are favorable adequate regeneration of lost attachment apparently occurs and as weeks and months pass by the resolving reservable membranes resolve by itself according to the type used as you can see in the picture the membrane dissolves by itself if it is a resorbable membrane this is the case from a standard textbook which explains the whole process a deep vertical defect is diagnosed clinically and radiographically after surgical exposure and debridement membranes were placed in sutures sutured in the reentry surgical stage excellent regeneration can be appreciated clinically and radiographically so to conclude gtr or guided tissue regeneration is the method for the prevention of epithelial migration along the cemental wall of the pocket and maintaining space for clot stabilization hope the concept of gtr is clear thank you [Music] you | DENTISTRY ’N MORE | UCstN7cZcrTjmPk0TAdJt1aA | 2020-07-20 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 733 | 4,509 |
xKDGfUMPAOs | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xKDGfUMPAOs | Autonomy and Ethnic Conflict in South and Southeast Asia 1 of 2 | now the premise for the book or various for this research is simply this and I'll try to put it is as simple terms as possible so that you can you know make a later on raised questions if you look at Southeast Asian countries and if you look at South Asian countries you know look at countries like Thailand you look at countries like Myanmar Malaysia Indonesia Philippines and if you also look at countries like Bangladesh India Nepal Pakistan and so on if you compare these two regions of the Stations of this year we find there are two things almost all the countries have in common the first is that all the countries of these two regions are what we might call multi-ethnic they don't have one nation one ethnic group in that country you know the typical example typical model is that each country has a dominant majority but then there are other minorities in each country you know you in Thailand you have the same myanmar has the same Indonesia Philippines they all have a dominant group and surrounded by minorities and South Asia is exactly like that so this is a reality this is the factual reality so this is number one that they're all multi-ethnic and number two trends that we find is that over the last 50 to 60 years in all these countries on the one hand there has been a strong tendency to centralize power you know governments that has ruled these countries they all try to deal with their minority problem by creating strong central government's very strongly centralized power but you also find that partly because of that perhaps that in all all these countries there is a very strong resistance by certain minor it is leading to ethnic conflict secessionist movements armed insurgency and so on and so forth so our starting point in the research was how do we change these countries from highly centralized states that wants to dominate minorities or in some cases even assimilate minorities into the majority community on the other hand how do we convince minorities that secession is not the answer separation is not the answer conflict is not the answer there has to be some sort of understanding and accommodation with the majority so that these countries can develop economically they can become stable political democracies they can become peaceful societies instead of seeing conflict and violence and so on and so forth so this was basically the starting point of the research that how do we change the picture from a negative picture to something of a positive picture now it is in this context it is in this debate that we raise the issue of what I call autonomy or if I want to expand this concept I can even call it territorial autonomy so so the question is or what really is autonomy and why are we talking about autonomy as a sort of solution to this problem before we come to that let me go back a little bit and let me start by posing the question of what is the central attribute or central characteristic of a nation how do we define a nation because realistically you know when I use the word multi-ethnic to describe the states in Southeast Asia and South Asia we can easily described them as not multi-ethnic only but multinational and in real sense i think multinational is probably a better term than multi-ethnic yes it is there but it's really not just in its ethnic sense but in a national sense so what is a sense of being a nation or what is this national identity a very standard definition of a nation is that it is a group of people who occupy a defined territorial homeland so territory or land a homeland an idea of a homeland is very central to understandings of the nation but in the traditional homeland or territorial homeland a nation is also defined by common culture common tradition a common language through which members of the group communicate with each other a common history sometimes this history is an imagined history in a lot of nations in lots of different parts of the world believe in a certain history and you may press the question you know whether this is a factual history but then that is something that even historians often debate that you know what is really history history is what we come to actually believe so as a group of people we have a sense of history some groups even have a sense of common ancestry you know this is very common in a discussion of national identity for people to say oh but we came from this try you know 2,000 years ago and this is our ancestor and from that we have come down today to this understanding of nation some authors would also suggest that one common attribute of nationhood is possibly religion nationhood is often anchored by some sort of common religious identity but the most important thing is that a nation becomes a nation when psychologically people who belong to the Ignatian believe that we are part of that nation so it is not just about objective things that you can go out and look and say oh this is culture is there or language is there but it is also something up here we believe that we are part of this nation so it's a psychological thing that we belong to this nation and because we belong to this nation we share with everybody else within that nation ties of kinship ties of common kinship now having said that if you go back and look at the history of nations historically not just in Southeast Asia South Asia but across the world then a common understanding among scholars is that for nations to really develop and really feel that their national aspirations are somehow fulfilled nations must have the political right in there defined territorial homeland some notion of political rights and we can debate whether political rights might mean only sovereign rights or could it be something less than sovereignty we can debate that and that is why I think the question of autonomy is important but across the board if you sample various scholars and their writings or not national question almost there is a consensus that for a nation to really become a nation and survive and develop you must have some notion of political rights in the territory that you call your national home time so territorial it is very important culture is very important the psychology of being part of our nation is very important and political rights are also very important so this is the way we conceive of a nation this notion that nations must have this political right in their territorial homeland to run their own affairs and so on and so forth this concept Chile developed from the French Revolution onwards because the French Revolution talked about individual self determination that people have the democratic right to decide how they choose to live politically in other words we have the democratic right to choose our leaders and choose our own inner different forms of government and decide on the powers that the government has in order to rule and govern so if this is a democratic right of every individual that the French Revolution talked about and events in Europe gravity gradually move towards you know a greater sense of democracy and popular sovereignty from that time onwards with the rise of the idea of of nations that groups of people must have their right in their territorial homeland this idea of the nation and the idea of self-determination if you put it together then it creates the concept of the national self-determination that nations have the democratic right political right to choose how they wish to live and obviously the Assumption here is no nation is going to willingly choose to live under somebody else's political control so nations would exercise this right of national self-determination in order to create their own sovereign independent political stage under which that national group is going to thrive and prosper and develop and so on and so forth great great concept in theory in practice enormously difficult to implement and as a result if you look at the practice of the UN since 1945 how did the UN look at this concept of national self-determination the UN did not see it as a legal right so the legality question was taken out of this discussion you are looked at it as a political principle that this is something in principle is okay but of course we'll have to look at it from the point of view practicality every time so not every nation is going to have its right to decide it's on state and you may ask why not because we will end up with 5000 microstates which will be nonsensical secondly even though I give you a definition of the nation could we all agree on who national groups would be you know if you give it to some group I'd say well others cannot have it then the question will be why can't they have it is that differentiation that clear-cut everybody is going to put up their hand and say we are a nation and we should therefore be independent so you'll have in total chaos and European leaders after the First World War you know the history that the first world war brought a you know a wave of democratization in Europe creation of new States and so on and so forth the victorious powers who did that they did it roughly more as a principle rather than as a legal right and they did it in a way that was as long as it was practical for them to do it so the UN practice clearly over the last 50 60 or years has come down even has understood national self-determination really to mean several things one number one decolonization so when a colony of a European power chooses independence it is supposed to be exercising its national self-determination so that that's number one number two the UN argued that national self-determination could be used to give this right to territories that are under occupation so for example Palestine would be a great case east timor would be a great case because un never really accepted East avoids annexation by Indonesia it always considered east to mode to be an occupied territory similarly Palestine is considered an occupied territory therefore if Palestine exercises this right of self-determination to become a separate country separate state that would be okay and thirdly the UN understood self-determination in order to mean bringing to an end institutionalized form of racism especially in those cases where small minorities were ruling majorities and the greatest example of that would be UN effort to bring up an end to the apartheid era in South Africa so you and saw this as more self-determination question what the UN did not support was simply this let's say a country like India which is heavily multinational you know not one group many groups you might even call India the last surviving Empire you know because it's so big and it has brought so many different groups India exercise its national self-determination rights to become independent in 1947 independent from British rule but then what about nations within India what about nations like the bengalis the assamese the Kashmir ease the Marathi is the Punjabis and so on and so forth do they have the right to then stand up and say we are a nation and we therefore should have the right of self-determination under the UN no you don't have the right colonies can exercise it once it is exercised that's done finished occupied territories like is Timur or Palestine can do it once it's done that's finished and if you have a situation of institutionalized racism like South Africa had once that's done that's finished no more so in effect what the UN was trying to do is you and realize that raising this question of national self-determination to its logical conclusion would be like opening a Pandora's box you know this is this is a box or let's say a portal you know you have put a genie inside the bottle a ghost inside the bottle and the bottle is tightly capped once you remove the cap and the Coast comes out no you don't know what's going to happen you know you will end up dividing the world into so many tiny pieces that it will be uncovered it will be unmanageable and you and practice obviously didn't then support that now why is this important it is important because states in Southeast Asia and South Asia since 1945 and more in an era of decolonization they also realized that they are sitting with a Pandora's box you know Indian government realized and this was a big debate right after independence when the Indian Constitution was being discussed and drafted the Indian nervous argument was we must have a strongly centralized government you know with a lot of power at the centre because if you don't do it India will get divided into tiny tiny countries and we can't do that we can't allow that the mindset was very similar in Indonesia the mindset very similar in Thailand mindset very similar in other countries in Pakistan we must have strong centralized government because without that we cannot create a national unity we can't keep our territorial integrity together we have different national groups in our country some of them don't want to be here I mean in India's case i can tell you india northeast was always in revolt from 1947 onwards and it took india almost 30 40 years to even come to terms with the revolts in the northeast even then they didn't do it very well even some insurgency is always going on in the Indian northeast pakistan are the same problem they thought that islam is going to be the glue they're going to have a strong state you know state is going to promote islam and so on and so forth and that's going to bring everybody together it didn't happen in 1971 East Pakistan broke away from West Pakistan and Bangladesh was born but then the Bangladesh solves the national question no because in hill tracts of Bangladesh there are tribal people who don't want to be part of a finish or at the very least you know they want substantial autonomy in their region so that they can have freedom to run their own affairs in the way they want to see it salonga same keys in a highly centralized state and ended up with major ethnic problem in the form of a thermal insurgency which ran for 30 odd years and then when he brutally finished in 2009 when the Sri Lankan government said you know we will militarily finish then LTT and that's how it turned out so through this exercise you can see you know this constant struggle between states which are highly centralized once to monopolize power wants to smash every minority into submission in either you don't open your mouth don't create problem or join the majority you know don't forget that always this assimilation is pressure in India we saw an attempt to assimilate when in the 1950s the central government tried to introduce the language Hindi to all over India and southern India said sorry I'm not learning in the this is not my language this is language spoken in northern India we will not accept Hindi and the South revolted eastern India also reverted I mean I remember my parents you know I'm ethically a Bengali in the 1970s you know when I was slightly politically conscious I remember debates at home that we should not learn Hindi you know the government attempt to force Hindi on everyone should be resistant we are being honest we should only speak Bengali so those divots emerged and stage try to either assimilate or they try to end and high and high late minorities by beating minorities into submission but they are aware of the problem so the real problem is this if you look at Southeast Asia and South Asia you will find that some of the fiercest conflicts in this two regions have involved States who are determined to defend their territorial integrity and sovereignty at any cost and non-state ethnic nations who are equally determined to exercise their right of national self-determination and exercising that right to separate from the state and become an independent entity so these two pull in different directions the state's want to preserve this territorial sovereignty territorial integrity and disgruntled ethnic nations they are equally determined that we want to exercise our national self-determination rights we want to separate and become independent state so in a sense you might say that this is a form of a zero-sum conflict either the state will and the ethnic minority loses everything or the minority is successful and the state loses his state dream now if you think of the last 50 or years how many successful secessions can you think of in Southeast Asia and South Asia in South Asia Bangladesh's secession Bangladesh's separation from Pakistan in 1971 was a successful one so pakistan lost a huge part of its territory Bangladesh was created but Bangladesh is an odd example because in the in the creation of Bangladesh India played a very decisive role in they actually went to war against pakistan in order to free bangladesh and create bangladesh and very few cases are there where a country has actually gone to war in order to help ethnic minority but in this case india gate perhaps because it was against pakistan with whom india has fierce rivalry but in Southeast Asia the only successful case I can think of is the Secession of singapore from malaysia but that was by mutual consent to some extent if you think of East Timor that is Timur is not really a secession because the UN never really accepted East emotes annexation by in the nation so when in odisha allowed referendum to take place in east timor the UN saw this more as a kind of decolonization almost you know freeing east timor from foreign occupation foreign control rather than secession of a part of a country from the rest of the country now in delicious biggest challenge in that sense came from Archie where you know there was very strong movement to separate from Indonesia but we'll talk about Archie later on there's a chapter in this book on on Archie so not too many successful cases of secession in world politics really so what happens in that sense is that in this conflict between states and ethnic minority nations the states have pretty much one in most of the cases but there one at a major prize and today we often debate the situation in Sri Lanka because the price that Sri Lanka was willing to pay massive destruction massive humanitarian crises you know yes they destroyed the lct they destroyed the Tamil Tigers but they also killed a lot of innocent you know civilians in the process of doing that we talked about Kashmir in the context of discussing India at the height of India's counterinsurgency operation in Kashmir there were something close to 600,000 Indian soldiers in that region and even today the big point of discussion in India and there is a big article in today's times of india on that is the continuation of almost absolute powers given to the indian military this is called the Armed Forces Special Powers Act the army can do anything it wants no one can question no prosecution no complaint in any court nothing will happen to the soldiers you know who could do this and so very draconian measure that India has enacted to give the Armed Forces almost unlimited power to go and solve the insurgency by force required so the question that we asked in this book is does the equation between ethnic nations and States always have to be zero sum is there some concept out there that we can use to convert this relationship from a negative one to a positive one and what is the real challenge the real challenge is that we have to convince the states that they are not going to disintegrate because states don't like to disintegrate states don't like to lose territory so if you convince the stage look there is a solution out there which if you accept you will continue to remain the way you are you will continue to exercise sovereignty the way you are your territorial integrity will remain intact on the other hand we have to convince ethnic minority nations that you must understand national self-determination in your ethnic homeland in a slightly different way this political right that you are talking about and which I referred to earlier does not have to be sovereignty does not have to be statehood it can be something called autonomy and self-determination can be understood both in an external sense if you understand self-determination in an external sense then you would probably have to say that national self-determination means sovereignty it means independence and that's the problem because the moment you say that the states are going to say oh they are trying to separate we can't allow that and there will be conflict but what if you understand national self-determination in an internal sense saying we are not trying to break away from this state will still be a part of it but we we'll have a greater political rights and freedom in our designated territorial homeland so in that sense you could see or you could argue that self-determination can be an internal self determination now the person who actually talked about this in a in a major sense in a policy sense was the ironically the idea log of the Tamil Tigers you know the ltte anton ballad singer who who died i think he had cancer that he had acute diabetes he passed away before the LTT was actually destroyed anton ballast ingham in an interview in the early 2000 2002 i think made it very clear when discussions were going on between the LTT and the solanke government and they were talking about creating some sort of a federal quality which which didn't go anywhere in the end by the way but they were talking about creating a federal quality they were talking about giving the sri lankan tamils a kind of autonomy package in the north and eastern province of sri lanka where tunnels are located and ballast ingham said and I and I can I quote you this line with this message which i think is very interesting policy have talked about his understanding and the Tamil Tigers understanding of national self-determination and I quote we mean the right of people to decide their own political destiny it can also apply to autonomy and self-governance if autonomy and self-governance is given to our people we can say that internal self-determination is to some extent meant but if the Sri Lankan government rejects our demand for autonomy and self-governance and continues with repression then as a last resort we will opt for secession and independence that also comes under self-determination so national self-determination according to Paula signal can be understood both internal autonomy self-governance type of sense or external sovereignty independence secession type of sense now choice you are saying choice is really the salon condiments you keep on impressing us keep on denying us rights keep refusing to accept our territorial homeland then we will think about insurgency armed violence leading to separation independent sovereignty a new thermal state but if you allow us self-governance and autonomy then we will drop the demand for separation and independence we will have autonomy and self-governance and that will be internal self determination will be happy with that so which way do you want to go now what then are the basic parameters of an autonomy package you know what is it about autonomy that we are talking about and I list to you six things that I think are central to the understanding of this territory electronic number one territorial demarcation of ethnic homeland as I said to you that ethnic nations have a very strong identity with a particular territory which they consider to be their ancestral homeland you need to accept that you need to say okay we will accept your concept of homeland but then where are the borders let's talk about the borders of this on that so we can negotiate the borders you know that has to be demarcated number two you've got to sort out the kind of regional institutions that will be created to govern that homeland and the kind of legislative executive and judicial functions and powers that these institutions would have and one of the key models of power sharing between a central government at the top but regional governments is a concept of federalism so a lot of autonomy discussion also centers on the question of federalism division of powers between center and province you know who's who has got what rights and so on and so forth so division of powers would be that sort of third criteria that you know powers must be divided between center and the region fourth the regions and the regional institutions of governance must have a high degree of fiscal autonomy because often government is about revenue raising money to govern now you may have a great autonomy arrangement but if the regional institutions lack the power to raise revenue then that might become a problem which will lead to the failure of autonomous arrangement so degree of fiscal autonomy for regional institutions you must develop some form of arbitration mechanism in case disputes emerge between the central government and the regional government how will disputes be resolved so some mechanisms to arbitrate and then finally some critics argue that regional bodies must given must be given a representation at the national level in the center government so that on policies that are being made at a national level the regions can have a same the provinces can have a same now the best way to understand this is to look at the American Constitution you know in the American Constitution you have a federal form of government so there's a national government and then there are state governments America has got 50 states each with the government so powers are divided between center and states secondly within the national government they are very clearly division of powers between the presidency which is the executive branch of the government the legislature which is the Congress and the judiciary which is the supreme court of the united states so judicial powers with the Supreme Court Congress has got legislative powers they can make laws and the presidency has to run the government and implement those laws and within the legislature if you look at it you have got two chambers America has got up i caminal parliament two chambers the people directly are represented in the lower chamber which is called the house of representatives and it is based on number of people that live in a certain state so states that are more populous have more representatives states that have less people have less representative and then you have the upper chamber which is known as the Senate and the Senate represents this last point irrespective of size irrespective of population the states are equally represented in the Senate so Senate has a total number of 100 senators 50 states each state has got two senators and these senators represent not just the people but they represent the region the state that you know that they come from and in that sense you could argue that when national laws are made or national decisions are made in a Senate has got a big role to play in signing or foreign you know foreign agreements for entreaties and so on and so forth appointments of judges etc that when the senators vote they fought keeping in mind the interest of the region the state that they represent so some sort of regional representation at the national level or national level policy and national level discussion so this is you know basically what I think people who support this idea of territorial autonomy argue and their argument is that once you do that you are able to allow an ethnic minority nation to exercise its right of self-determination on the one hand but on the other hand you give the stain the confidence that it is not going to break up that this is not going to lead to secession or independence of a part of the state okay one final point which I would like to make and then I'll stop is that even if you have the best intentions you know the state has the best intention to go for autonomy the minority nation also has the best intention there are some serious practical difficulties associated with the concept which we should be aware of and it is these difficulties which often lead to the failure of autonomy and the difficulties like difficulties are like this some scholars have argued that it is almost impossible to find the right balance between the division of powers and functions now the problem is this if the state gives too much power of function to the region to the minorities then there could be a danger that they will use this autonomy to learn the ropes of governance they will become more ambitious and then today's of autonomy may turn into tomorrow's independence movements and a lot of states are fearful of this which is why they don't want to give powers that they will get the powers today and then tomorrow they'll demand more and then next day there's Iman even more and eventually this will end up with separation with independence and so on but the reverse is also true if you give less when a little powers are actually given to the region's then the region's are not going to be satisfied the ethnic minority nation will not be satisfied there will be serious fractions within the minority nations on the question of autonomy that say the group that negotiates the autonomy opposing groups will come up and say what actually have you received you have not received anything so we are rejecting this and we are going back to the days of insurgency so finding that balance that what will keep the region and the ethnic minority happy and what will also give the state confidence is a very delicate balance in practice it is almost impossible to do and the great example of this was again in the case of Sri Lanka in 2002 when they were seriously ago she ating a federal kind of policy where regions will have substantial autonomy the government that was negotiating this the wickremasinghe government belonging to the United National Party there was a national election and the opposition basically said to the salon can people look this government is giving far too much to the minorities and the government lost the opposition won the election they came to power and the very first thing they did was to start taking away those those powers and of course the Tamil Tigers said look you know you are not giving us autonomy previous government was giving now you are taking back so we go back to the days of war so both sides decide the war is the ultimately the solution but when the Tigers had autonomy when they were negotiating autonomy with the wickramasinghe government there were reports that they were using that in order to put in place what could only be thought of as trappings of a new state you know they created a thermal police force they created they were raising the Tamil flag on the state capital all of this unnerved the salon can cover meant saying oh we are giving them autonomy and maybe they are using it now to start a movement gradual movement towards separation and independence maybe we should back off and this is the fear that the opposition parties used against the government so this is a very delicate problem you know how do you divide second problem or difficulty according to some scholars is that there is no a priori logic that autonomy by itself will solve everything because their argument is that in a sense when we have ethnic conflict or ethnic violence it is basically a governance problem and the governance problem is that we have failed to come up with creative ideas by which we can satisfactorily govern ethnic minorities how do we govern minorities because we have failed which is why we have a problem now what autonomy would do according to these critics is simply trance transform bad governance from one set up to another set up so just because now minority leaders are going to run the affairs of their region does not necessarily mean that they will run it well but they may run it efficiently or they will be less corrupt compared to the people who ran the government from the center and this was a problem that if you read the book at the chapter on rj marcos maidana talks about that the gavel leaders who were given the power by the solanke by the indonesian government people suddenly saw within a few years that the GAM leaders when now driving around in Mercedes cars you know they were building alessia houses so the question was where are you getting the money from is this development money that you are diverting into your own pocket now that you have got power the government has given you autonomy so the people who are exercising the autonomy whether they are central elites or whether they are regional elites there is no logical reason just because you transfer power from the center to the region that you will suddenly get better governance and if you if you accept the premise that the problem is really the governance you know problem is the corruption problem is the waste problem is the high-handed manner that government often deals with people then changing master may not change those problems what you need is enlightened people to govern and govern with the degree of respect give people a sense of fairness and a sense of justice and so on and so forth and that may not come with autonomy and if it doesn't come with autonomy for example if cam fails to use this opportunity in our chair people of rj will throw out gam and some other groups will come up and they will say we are going back to the days of our insurgencies from against indonesia and they'll start blaming in the ratio for not controlling gam and the and the waste and corruption of gap and i found very similar things in my own research on on a particular area of india which is in the northern part of west bengal state place called are chillin we're in the 1980s there was a massive demonstration the goal come people of darjeeling wanted to create a separate state not live India they are part of west bengal they said we don't want to be part of West Bengal we want a separate province to be created called gorkhaland where we will be in charge of our area and we will govern so the Indian government said no you can't really have a state called gorkhaland but what I'll do is I'll give you substantial autonomy and they created something called the Gorkha Hill Council and they put the leader of the main political front in in darjeeling as the leader of this hill council guess what in 10 years of rule this guy never submitted accounts even once and he is considered to be one of the richest person in the ER chillin so people say that almost the entire development assistance the center gave to you know for the development of darjeeling went into his pockets and his friends in the movement things came to such a pass that in mid-2000 he was physically thrown out of the are chilling by his own people who created a separate organization and they made it clear to him that if he dared to come back into that region he would be gunned down he will be killed he was he was so unpopular by that time and this new group which came to power they then wanted again more autonomy and another round of discussion which they have now got they have got even substantial autonomy from the center and it will be a big question to see how these people now cover so the RG links problem if you go back and say oh there were problems of development problems of neglect you know they were treated poorly in the 60s 70s 80s which led to the movement you go to the RG link to do you see the same thing is still there you know and they for the last 15 years had their own governance own counsel and they did nothing so oftentimes you might find change of masters that not improve change of governance thirdly some people argue that if you have a conflict like you are having in Thailand right now you know between the state and minority in southern Thailand or solanke had and this conflict was a very vicious conflict people were dying in cetera et cetera in that sort of an atmosphere if you going to talk about trying to create an autonomy package you've got to make certain big decision certain big concessions you know both in the division of powers and functions creation of institutions and so on and so forth and the minority also has to make big decisions that we are going to lay down our arms we're going to surrender arms to the to the state we will decommission our soldiers and so on and so forth all of this in the middle of conflict is very difficult to do because who is going to start the process you know who can you trust the other side that will be the big question you know people are dying bullets are flying how do you go about discussing this so what you need is some temporary halt to the fighting you know some sort of a ceasefire for a for a time period which will prevent the violence from actually happening now when you say that then you have a slightly different problem because we argue that groups don't fight unless they are sure that they're going to gain something more by fighting then they will get by not fighting ok so to have a ceasefire between two sides who have still not given up the notion of fighting and getting more you need somebody from outside a third person to come and say look boys you know you are fighting and I don't like it you got to stop now without that third person coming in and imposing that ceasefire between two groups who are still convinced that they need to find out it's very difficult to stop the fighting and unless you can stop the fighting how can you even seriously discuss questions of autonomy questions of power sharing and so on and last but not least is the problem of a spoiler and the spoiler problem is simply this if you have and this is more on the side of the minority less probably on the side of the state but it can happen on the side of the state as well let's say India wants to talk autonomy with the Kashmiri insurgents okay let's say hypothetically Indian government is serious about discussing autonomy the first problem is which Kashmiri groups are you going to talk to who is the real representative of the Kashmiri opinion because there are 50 groups who will put their hand and say I'm the real representative you cannot talk to anybody else and there will be an intra group find an intergroup fighting that will develop because each group will say i am the representative so who do you talk to is the first problem the second problem is from the state side how do you neutralize those who are going to oppose any move towards autonomy and this was a failure of the wickremasinghe govern government in sri lanka wickremasinghe was very serious about you know some discussion of peace with the ltte his real problem was he could not convince the opposition parties in his own Parliament and the opposition parties at every point created problems for him and being a politician leader of a government he realized that if he went too far he will be thrown out because I won't have power anymore so if I don't have power anymore what can I do I can't do anything so if today the Indian government led by the Congress party wants to decide to give autonomy to people in Kashmir the first problem it will face is who should i discuss this width and if i discuss this with Group A then group B is going to create trouble and that would be the end of the autonomy discussion and more importantly how do I keep my opposition parties in the indian national parliament from spoiling this because or position parties will start a national campaign they will start accusing the government of selling out they'll convince the people that you should not vote for this government in the next election there's an election coming in 2014 government might say look until 2014 election I can't do anything because if I start this now I'll surely lose the election because the opposition parties will make us look bad and politics will come in so this problem of spoiler you know both from your own national opposition and factions within you know the insurgents is a big problem when you are trying to discuss autonomy I want to end on this note but I will also say that there are separate chapters in this book one on this custom a problem between India and Kashmir the sri lankan case you know the thermals and Sri Lankan government there's another chapter on India's approach to the northeastern insurgency especially in Assam and then we have a chapter in Indonesia and RJ we have a chapter on Philippines and Mindanao and our professor Chauhan has written a chapter on the southern Thailand violence in this book the question of autonomy as all of you probably know has suddenly gained limelight today because in Philippines they have had a major announcement that the government of Philippines and the Muslim liberation front milf Muslim am sorry Mindanao Islamic Liberation Front they have entered into an agreement not on in a package of autonomy but they have basically agreed to a framework which says that we will create a separate Bangsamoro region clearly identified region which will be the Muslim homeland in Philippines we will divide powers between the central government and the regional area and we will not put a timeline in this idea it will be a process through which we will go and no matter how long it takes five years ten years does not matter but our aim would be eventually to create regional institutions clearly identified region territorially and clear division of powers between center and province so that peace can return in mindanao very lofty ambition i wish them all the best but you know if you go by history that mindanao has had a long history in the philippines of autonomy discussions ultimately leading to failure so with that I end I don't want to sound pessimistic but the conclusion of the book was that RJ my phone was the only example where autonomy arrangements have a decent chance of actually working if if a lot of things go in a way that that that we think it can go but the rest of the authors were quite pessimistic about autonomy working in india or thailand or philippines and so on but we can debate that what if there is like the neighbor or the archer nations one to influence in that particular ethnic so to relate themselves so is that autonomous is still youthful for it I you know I don't know I'm not fully understanding the question but are you suggesting that four neighboring countries acetate influenced is creating trouble it becomes difficult because then you know you will start doubting the intentions of the group as to why they're creating trouble are they creating trouble because there are some serious problems that needs to be solved this needs to be addressed or are they dancing to the tune of somebody else and you know when when the hand of a neighboring country is very prominently you know seen in many conflicts the central government will become more resistant and you know is how to then break the cycle of violence and in those cases and you know discussing serious autonomy for those sort of problems I think is more problematic because of the fear that if you give them autonomy then maybe in two years time or three years time they will use that opportunity and then suddenly declare independence and then you will have a bigger problem so I think you know the fear factor from the point of view of the state Rises more if a neighboring you know enemy is involved in all in almost all cases you can see that and it becomes the picture becomes much more complicated | PrachataiTV | UCho9X86WGsBR2xYhuZcw2Yg | 2012-11-15 | Creative Commons

ZSnjUdjS46I | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZSnjUdjS46I | Listen to Men's Insults They Hold Knowledge | hi seven I'm back and I want to make a video about how to tell what main value okay in a woman the first thing that men attack when verbally attacking a woman like on a video on a post on Facebook or social media the first thing they attack on a woman is the first thing that they value on a woman okay so if you ever notice like in the comments down below in some of my videos you'll see these guys trolling and they'll be attacking me attacking women who comment the first thing they go for is usually appearance and a sexual orchid the first thing that they really attack is the appearance of a woman and they're a sexual organ and they also attack the the way that women expect things and the way that women are entitled so what do they value in a woman sex appearance and how she feels about herself okay they're her confidence so you made a marionette very easy to read oh you're like one of the most simple creatures on the planet so when you see these trolls don't look at their comments as negative read between the lines because this is what teaches you this is why I don't mind troubles I don't care if people insult me because it just shows me their weakness it just shows me what they're really saying you know they say a woman will always expose a man's weakness okay and that's just so true when a man gets upset especially one has to do with women they will be exposed for their weaknesses and if you look in social media on the news you'll see all these men get in trouble and most of the time it's behind women okay we already know that and when it gets out into the open secrets fly out of the closet their weaknesses are exposed because we all know that man can talk and act a certain way but when it comes down to it there's always a woman in the background okay there's always some woman that is their weakness okay so we know that so ladies when men talk about appearance this is a clue it's you need to look beyond presentable when you step out of your house anytime I don't give you going to the grocery store to the bank because you never know who you're going to meet okay this is what I teach my girls that's like always with your bedroom you leave the house okay I don't care where you're going look decent at least okay put on perfume have lotion it leaves a little bit of makeup does it matter but don't go around in your house shoes and robes and stuff on your head okay I don't look like you wrote out the bed because no one respects a woman like that and they treat you like trash the next time they see you even if you're dressed okay always be presentable because men will only treat you how you treat yourself okay and the more and I know a lot of ladies can't afford can't afford certain things right now but always look your best smell your best and try to you know be dressed nice and stuff like that when you do go somewhere even if it's just to the store and I say this because men do look at women and they see you somewhere else or or you know some men will approach you when you're looking your best some women will try to approach you when you're looking your worst you ever wonder why men approach women when they look their worst because they don't think that they have high standards I think they're easy to please they think they'll accept anything this is why a lot of women get hit on when they look like you know here I'll Missy and like sweats and stuff like that they get approached like that because men aren't intimidated by that man don't have to live up to anything when they are you know not intimidated so of course those women's are those women are going to get like hey you want to chill you want come on route I have Netflix that's the kind of approach they're going to get sometimes not all the time but sometimes but if you have a woman dress really nice as our stuff together smells good hair nails all of that they're going to get high when you can I take you out to dinner sometime yeah they're going to get the good treatment so um most ladies have invested in a nice perfume most ladies have invested in a nice lotion like that Americans women have a nice lipstick makeup whatever and you all know these things are expensive so you're not going to waste them on trying to impress a broke man okay this make no sense so y'all and then the second thing that men really attack is the sexual organs you know they go well you know they're concerned with how many men you've been with why because they're intimidated they're intimidated that you have been with men who are better than them bigger than them and probably more experienced so they attack that because they feel like they're not going to be able to please you and live up to your standards sexually okay so knowing this they're already intimidating this is why they attack it because uh most men that are you know well-endowed and have their stuff together are not on these videos trolling okay they're just not click on women problems like that right so these this is why they attack your sexual organ because they're intimidated by it the third thing that the attack is that you're a parasite or you don't want to do things for yourself and you're lazy which is exactly what they are because they can't afford to even take you to dinner or pay any of your bills if you were to get together they can't afford to pay the whole rent there they got the handout so really who's the parasite mm-hmm yes that's what I thought so read between the lines lady when you're when you're insulted read between the lines the first thing they attack is the first thing they valued okay so psychologically men give themselves away too easy that's why they're so easy to figure out women you have to women are very mysterious like the first thing a woman will attack on a man is their brokeness right but or their lack of maturity okay so what do we value men should men should be able to understand now that I've given them the pattern so yes women women value stability women value kindness we're in value values Emmy loyalty trust okay and I know you're not going to say well why do they go for the bad boys we go for the bad boys if they value money and value doesn't know you that well women have a thing like with sync potential anime they they like to see the best in people okay until their missed over then they don't see the best of me Poland don't go for the bad boy a few times and then when they realize that there's nothing there and he can't get his stuff together I mm okay I learned my lesson okay now let me put instead of you know attraction and love let me go ahead and put financial stability in front of that because I don't want to struggle no more you know so then they start putting their priorities in a different order once they have learned that certain men aren't going to do certain things okay so now that the woman has their priorities in that order were she values financial stability then that's what she's going to attack when she talks about guys and she's going to talk about how broke they are and then she's going to talk about how they don't stay with their kids so they value a good father they value stability and what else just what else do women talk about with men let's see uneducated they value education you know making time for you they you know they they value these things so when a woman complains listen read between lines this is what she wants this is what she values whatever she's complaining about that's what she's values enemy and men listen to women whatever whenever you know I mean ladies listen to me when they attack you or talk about women are complaining about women this is what they value so never let them fool you okay they might talk about you underneath your clothes they may talk about you sexually they may talk about your appearance because that's what they value okay no one's going to talk about something that doesn't matter to them okay now so whenever I get it um whenever I get patrol insulting me ask that take it as a compliment you know it's like oh okay you're looking at me you're analyzing my looks okay okay you're thinking about what's beneath my clothes oh okay oh you want me to bring something to table because you want me to bring something to the table because you can't bring it all okay and now you're looking at me like I can do more than you financially okay so now you're looking at me and you're putting me on a pedestal you're actually worshiping me by insulting me you know so that's why I'm really give in to buy it because y'all just telling me what y'all value in me so thank you anyway I already know that that's why I make this video teach these other ladies that so whenever you get one of them crazy guys on your inbox trying to get you to go do this and do that and you give them your standards and your rules and they get mad go flip out and tell you all these crazy things you know what they value okay and they're the only thing that the only reason they're going to say those negative things is because they wanted those things from you okay they liked those things about you at first and now they don't because you're not going to give them what they want okay so it's just like a you know it's just like a mean child it's like the first thing that they attack is like when they bully another cute is something like oh well you know you're a big stupid head oh but then they were trying to be their best friend two seconds ago right okay you know that so anyway ladies I hope that this video helped y'all I hope it helps you understand especially when you argue with the man or you go back and forth with a man listen to what they're not saying it's what they really need read between the lines the first thing the attack is the first thing that they value on you okay because they're trying to hurt you and they're trying to also convince themselves at the same time that you're not all that but really what they're saying is I value these things on you so I'm going to put them down so you don't feel good about yourself so you can stay with me or so that you can feel dumb for not agreeing with me or some stupid like that but we all we all know a simple psychology um so if y'all have any questions or a video topics that I should cover in the next year or a different type of video you want to see me do because I don't always have to do relationship videos I can do whatever y'all know I have lots of range um so let me know what y'all want on this channel for 2016 and I can try to do it you know um question answers I don't know I might do a lot I'm sorry I'm polish I might do a live streaming on YouTube where you can ask me questions or somebody can sit and talk to me um or something like that I don't know just let me know what y'all want in the come in because you know I want y'all be happy with what I'm putting out as well you know it's not all about what I think you should know you know you ask I would like more questions and I could just do like a question video that it's like really popular or maybe many people ask the question the same type of question over and over and no I know it's like around Christmas time everybody is trying to get loved readings everybody's trying to get loved reading because they either feel lonely disappointed abandoned this time of year by who they thought that they were with this is the time of year lots of side chicks fun out there side chicks like you might not have known he might just thought now you know he's not calling you back on holiday it is that chick season okay I think they had this funny meme on Facebook and it said December 26 Christmas Versace uh so sad but hey if you're a side chick don't worry about it most women have been side chicks before and they have figured their way out of it okay so don't be mad oh this is a learning lesson okay don't pay attention to words pay attention to actions and clues okay men do men are not honest they never have this they never will be so don't ever believe no man I don't care what they tell you always double-check it okay that's my mom taught me my mom double checks my stepdad every day and she's been married to him for 20 years and he has never cheated on her or anything but she just crazy like that okay now this with me her other husband's habit like I'm gonna be married a lot of times oh uh before me before me and that doesn't mean her other husband didn't do her mom which is probably why she checks up on this husband it keeps him and check in line you know so remember you know the longer you with someone the more your trust bills you know would never let let your guard down I always got a double check every now and then every now and then every now and and just got to do it just to make sure and you know just to make sure okay make sure everything's going kosher right so I will in this video and I'll see y'all later thumbs up if you agree and check out my latest video if you have it and I'll see you later

3Mjt_-iaW4Y | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Mjt_-iaW4Y | Blues Deluxe to Overdrive Special Video 9 - Oscillation Resolved! | okay so I'm gonna fire this up but I'm gonna first explain what I'm doing I have found what I think is the solution I'm gonna fix it here as well I think or I hope and then what we test again but basically this is just a piece of steel that I have laying around I've got it connected to a ground to chassis so this is grounded now part of what I'm gonna do here is to be very careful as I'm going to use these pliers so that I'm earth and I'm gonna attempt to just very gently move this in without touching any of the connections so I don't create an electrical shock problem but that's also why I'm holding this I don't want to shock myself so don't try this at home but this is an experiment for me to point out something that some of the forms suggest it may be the problem these are really close and these are really close so this may be sending noise off the OD tube into back into the infinite crazy oscillation so we're gonna turn this on I have the oscillation at low volume the master volume is fairly low but just enough so we'll hear the oscillation and then I will gently slide this in it we'll see what happens so we gotta give it a second to warm up but once we hear that warming up you'll hear that oscillation I'm gonna check this out all right I can hear that right now coming in now watch here that disappear there's a buzz but that's probably because there's all the noise in here but the actual oscillation stops now I can also I found out after I did this I figured this out before the video anything that I put in between their impacts the tone here that and I even got a DMM probe I've got the other end still connected to a ground here in a way right there oh there it is so basically I can even put this DMM probe and it will go in the middle and if I block it enough physically it stops here that so basically I am going to shut this down desolder all three wires from either side and swap them now if you're building this amp I would suggest instead cutting a new hole and just kind of covering up one of these holes closer to yeah let me shut this off so right here is that would that oscillation you connect it over here directly below this so that you have more physical like short leads the shorter leads bet the better for anything on a first gain stage and then this OD stay there which could introduce noise farther away but you still could put it close to this one or you know or maybe just use that that hole that's already there that's again if yours in this specific amp I you know and then finally your your P I could could also potentially be a little closer you know you could choose one of these other two holes for that as well but ultimately I'm this is basically just because this input in my estimation is so close to the OD tube if that's what's causing that oscillation I had also missed these snubber caps and I put those in but that did not solve the problem those just helped some kinds of I think some of the noise that can happen so sorry I'm getting a call from my wife but I will check back on the second she'll be happy that I figured this out as well so I'm going to quickly disorder all those replug it back in turn it on and see if that solves it if it doesn't I might have to maybe cut a small piece of this put it on an L bracket and then mount it in there permanently to give that physical feeling the correct solution will be to reap unch another hole but I don't want to pull everything out just to do that so we'll see where that goes thanks all right so now we're gonna try powering on again let's see what we get as you can see I've rewired these three over here those three over there they are crossing each other a little bit but there now this is a way completely from that side oh I need to plug it back in I didn't plug it to the soldering work which is the smart thing to do there we go it's coming up and we'll see how it works while you're buzzed well this is it max drive a little bit of home but no [Applause] hey that sound of this guitar is out of tune but that doesn't matter the point is just gonna be - oops are not my light there [Applause] [Music] single coil that's a single coil so a lot of that hum disappears they go to sorry guitars away attitude has been down here the cold [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] so that's a max Drive max volume with a little bit of master volume but that did it that's the fix so as you can see now that was what I changed was the preamp sections have swapped places and in theory I could also do the similar test very carefully here with this guy to see if that changes it anymore now but it probably shouldn't no see nothing nothing changes so that hum is kind of be expected of an open back over LED lights and all that jazz especially at this high level of [Applause] it sounds a little muddy I need to tweak things now that I figured that out but I also wouldn't want it at max Drive I'd cut that [Music] so [Music] bingo bango Bungo so that's all about helping you understand something important here was the lead dress and proximity moving that to but the right more would have been better also moving all these components kind of like I have swapping them sides is probably better because that puts this first gain stage farther away from this Cody tube so hey there you have it that was a fix for the oscillation I was getting again as I mentioned the oscillation only was happening at max everything pretty much dined if you dial it down a little bit you spelled really great sounding tone it just wasn't you know but that's possible even at those higher lighting settings where I couldn't hear it it was impacting the tone a little bit causing problems with the you know with the way the tone sounded just due to that proximity and noise so at any rate there you go guys enjoy the video series I think that wraps it up for us I did film a video imbalance in the phase inverter yet again but I think when release that is a separate video just about balancing the phase inverter so that it's kind of separate of this build series so people understand that as a separate topic I might have done it before but I figured I'd go in a little bit more depth on that so and anyway cheers everybody thanks if you didn't like this video please give us a like a thumbs up and subscribe and that would make me happy bye | Frenchie Films | UC3GTnNPDqWhCYUtN3pNtI_A | 2019-12-10 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 1,255 | 6,349 |
B-VPCkvm8Cs | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B-VPCkvm8Cs | Henry IV, Part II Dr. Fred Wills | "Does the end justify the means?" Well, you see, that only, you can only pose that question, it's like the famous question whether honesty is the best policy...Well, if honesty has to be a policy, then it's not honesty. it should be natural, you know, a natural thing. But any society, any civilization, that has a maxim that says honesty must be the best policy is a devilish, decrepit, immoral society. It shouldn't be a policy! A deliberate sitting down, "I shall be honest." So, "ends justifying the means?" Shakespeare believes that life is processual, fundamental reality is process. So the means are as much a reality as the end. They're intertwined. You can't separate them in Aristotelian fashion: Method. Result. Methodology. Ontology. This will produce that. You can't separate them. So it is ridiculous to argue, according to Shakespeare, that, whatever you're doing, will be justified by your result. And he takes it up in Henry V, when we come to it, because he faces the question, "When is War justified?" You know, when is physical arms justified? When is that ever justified? And he deals with it in Henry V, and I don't want to advance my lecture to Henry V, because there are a lot of beautiful, poetic passages in Henry V, the prologues and the epilogues, and the choruses...So that happened (Gaultree Forest). Now, what about the comic characters? Oh, by the way...well, I'll tell you about the famous lines in a minute. Falstaff, from the first Henry IV, he's now going to fight in Yorkshire, and he's going to pick up men on the way, but, being Falstaff, he had an appointment before,..."marital relations," and Falstaff turns up at the Battle of Gaultree late...He turns up when John of Lancaster, the royal troops are arresting people, and one stupid knight named Sir John Coville, he's escaping and Falstaff captures him, says, "Aha." This proves he was in the battle; I want a reward, you know. Now, two characters, who I would suggest to you, Falstaff and Prospero, I think are the best, in my view, personally, drawn characterizations by Shakespeare, Prospero in The Tempest...no, Caliban, my mistake, Caliban and Falstaff, I thought were the best drawn characters. He uses him to satirize, now this is what Shakespeare does in Henry IV, Part II. He makes him satirize chivalry, this business of "your turn, my turn," you know? You know, the Battle of Agincourt, as many men died, as in a minor commando raid in World War II. In the whole battle. In 1346, and I think the play refers to it, this is an earlier battle now (the Battle of Crécy), Edward III stood on a hill, while all these Frenchmen came to fight the British, and "The Black Prince" the guy was called, his son, he let him run the army, and they beat up all these Frenchmen, while he stood on a hill. And when you assess its toll, "total victory" says Holinshed, says the count of all the, you check the deaths and captured, it's a fantastic situation. A hundred (English) men haven't died yet. It was a big battle. Well, anyway, you say, you don't have the scientific engines of mass destruction that the modern age has. You could say that. But the point I am making is that...well, you know the point...I don't think I need to explain... Falstaff turns up, and he's satirizing all this crap, all this chivalry..."I want my reward! I captured Sir John Coville." Of course they don't want to give them his reward. He writes to describe when they booze, and the whole of the thing now, starts to deal with the satirization of "What is Law?" "What is Justice?" And what is the relationship between natural law and positive law, positive justice. What is the relationship, for instance, between what is happening to Ed Spannaus and what is happening to Bob Greenberg (LaRouche co-defendants)1) huh?, in relation to natural law? What is that? And this guy's beautiful, Shakespeare, He names the two judges Mr. Justice Shallow and Mr. Justice Silence, first thing he does. And believe you me, Shallow is shallow, and Silence ought to be silent. You know? He also, he deals with conscription, you know, when Falstaff is conscripting people, they won't fight, and you know the names he gives to the conscripts? I got a note here: Mouldy, Shadow, Wart, Feeble, Bullcalf. Well, why is he doing that? He's trying to teach you that nominalism is unimportant. Because the fellow with the most ridiculous name is the bravest one, you know, so you can't judge by a name. You can't say, if you're a Republican I suppose, you don't want the successor to Reagan to be Dole, because his name is Dole. You don't want that. Nor do you want to see this be Nunn, because his name is Nunn. Whatever you wish to say about them, you know? And he gives you...should you, how, how, on what basis do you conscript 2) for an army? And is personal loyalty the best method of picking allegiance? Or is financial reward? Or is it donatives? What you get afterwards? Because, you see, this is important. The Roman Empire ended up with a Praetorian Guard,3) encamped outside Rome. And that Praetorian Guard decided Roman history, decided who would be emperor, and who would not. And they worked for donatives. 4) When things were bad, they, and you have promised them something if you were made emperor, they get rid of the emperor and put you. At one stage the Praetorian Guard held up the Imperial Crown on auction! Yeah. Whom, or who bid big bid for this crown, and then somebody bid so much and he became emperor. His name starts with a "J," I can't remember what his name was (Didius Julianus.) That's how bad it is, how bad it was. And you know Tigellinus and all those guys, who kept Nero in power for their own purposes, you know, kept Caligula around, mad as a hatter, you know? But it serves a purpose. Because the locus of power is in this Praetorian Guard. And any historical event you study, you have to study where is the locus of power. Unless you know the locus of power, you'll be like a Don Quixote, tilting at windmills. Actually, you know the allegorical... you know. You have to know that. Well, this is the feudal system. William the Conqueror in 1066 comes over from France, Normandy, fights the Battle of Hastings...and establishes in the end the feudal system. Now he owns all the land. "I'm the land lord," that's how we get the word landlord. "And I divide the whole land, and these are my tenants." Tenants, you barons and knights.. So if you are my tenants, then you have your tenants, all the way down. And each tenant owes an obligation. If it's money, it's called ... rentes, hence the word rent, that's why you pay rent. Sometimes you have some nice terms, "You're to provide two geese per year to the knight." I've seen that. Or "your first born daughter must serve in the kitchen of the lord," like that. Things like that. If you were not in the feudal system for some reason, and you're outside the feudal manors and estates, you aren't a serf, you're a villein, hence the word "villain," meaning, because they usually stole. That's the system, where power existed in that form. The problem is, how do you centralize power when that happens, because that's a system which presupposes a decentralization of power. And the impression you must or ought to be getting from these historical plays so far, is that Shakespeare is attacking the feudal system, especially in the sense that it decentralizes power and prevents a strong nation. And it's not an ancient quarrel, it exists today! Because surely if you stand back and look at American history, in 1986, what is really happening is, how strong should the states be, should they be weak or strong? That has always been the argument here. Sure, Marshall and those guys believed in a strong central government. True, Reagan believes, give more power to the states. But do you really, it's for you, I'm not going to give you my view, you really think you can be a superpower in a modern, dangerous age with decentralized power? Where Idaho, you have to wait for an opinion from Idaho? And Rhode Island, and..., huh? Think you can do that? Because both these countries are federal states now. USSR is a federated state. Twenty-six republics and 106 autonomous things. And this is a lot of states over here, too. You think you can really operate on a decentralized basis? Because that's the whole problem. Don't you need centralization in the face of danger? You really think you can exist in history by just diffusing power out? Everybody's centralizing, even the Europeans are trying to form an EEC, whether it's good or bad is not a matter. But then guys come here now with some 18th Century philosophies about state rights. About state rights. And a man sits down in the White House, once, 1952 to 1960, you may not be aware of this, and decides that an important thing like oil in America, whether he was going to grant California people the sole rights of exploiting California oil. Dwight Eisenhower did that. He had made an election promise. Even if it's so big, you see. So this is what Shakespeare is dealing with here, too. Look how this Falstaff and the others are raising arms. You have to go and talk to the local "Macho Man." "Could you let me have a few of your people?" "But what do I get for this?" "Well, if you come up for a vote in Parliament, I'll vote for your...whatever." Duty to raise people (troops)! Do you think you can really raise, defend the country on the basis of rights? What about the hypothesis he's saying, that if you raise arms and defend the country on the basis of duty, the man in the street will say, "I have a right, I don't want to join your blasted army," you know, they ain't going to raise nothing. Don't you feel , it's for you to think, I don't know, but we exaggerate rights, and the Russians exaggerate duty, they go too far, with the duty crap, but we go too far with rights. And then the push comes to the shove, huh? You know? And it will come to the shove one of these days. You know what amuses me? Guys asking for their individual rights, to transport arms, which will kill children, and women. And they want, they speak about their individual rights, that's amusing to me. I don't understand this, I'll tell you one fact I know for sure. If you increase the level of arms in any society, you increase the level of violence. You can believe it. Say, if you are in your house, and a burglar comes in, you got a baseball bat and a telephone, You want that. But if you know you got a revolver with six shots, where are you taking that? It's there. You're also being told something very arithmetically funny: that $30 million worth of arms is a drop in the bucket. They're kidding. Because I used to be a Minister of Trade and I had to buy arms a couple of times. Which you buy from Americans, but you don't buy from AMERICA. These guys are smart. You want arms? You can get American arms. But they invent middlemen. And max- and put to the production, as costs, you know, insurance. freight, and they take, rake off there. If the middleman costs a million, the middlemen are costing two million, that's extra profits they get. I'll tell you something worse. They sell you the guns without the bullets. then hold you up to ransom for the bullets. All that I know. And then give you a cock and bull story that giving guns to Guyana was not in the security interest of America. Because the statute says here, read the Federal Register. You can only sell arms if it is in the security interest of America. So the sale of arms to Iran had to have a certification by the President, that the sale of arms to Iran was in the security interest of America. The truth, of course, is that's a cover story. They decided, you know what a cover story is? In case you get caught, what will you say? If you're with your girlfriend, but in case your wife asks, you've been to see your sister. That's a cover story. Now, you're going to sell arms to Khomeini, I mean. it's so stupid. To me, the larger the events get, the more stupid they get, and comical. How're you going to sell TOW missiles and spare parts, and you're not selling to Khomeini? You know? Anyway...the point is the cover story. If you are found out, you're going to say, "Moderates." That was the cover story. We're trying to get them because Russia is in the ballgame, if we're found out. But, you guys are not trained to look for cover stories. So then, "my President," as they say, get's up and says "We were trying to open...to find moderates," you believe it. That's the cover story. You know the famous one, in Grenada? "We're going to rescue students." That was the cover story. The students were amazed that they were being rescued. If you're found out, that's what you will say. After all, remember what happened in, Carter with students? That was a cover story. The truth is, North, I'm telling you what I know about. North went around. they needed something to happen to give, they had...following policy failures, right? And he went around to those islands, (Edward) Seaga (PM Jamaica), and this woman (Eugenia) Charles (PM of ) in Dominica. He drafted the letter that they would send to Reagan. This was, they tell me here, you know, I'm quoting them, so if you want to quote me, quote me. And the idea was, give the, send the letter to Reagan to intervene in Grenada. What helped them is, like the last straw, eh? (Bernard) Coard and them go and kill (Maurice) Bishop 5) You know that, made it easy. So, Reagan's great foreign policy thing, he beat Grenada! One more division, the island would have sunk! One more division, the island would have sunk. And he beat them. Seventeen casualties, you know, seventeen American casualties, and they shot a madhouse, they let lunatics in Grenada, lunatics, you know, escaped, and all that. And the very airstrip, that they say was going to take CUBAN military jets immediately took AMERICAN military jets, you know, that kind of thing. You know this. I mean, that was the cover story. So, Reagan will go down in history, for his only foreign policy success, he conquered Grenada. You want me to follow up this story? You know what the court did? This is how wicked this is. They just had a trial. A friend of mine was the prosecutor ...Hudson-Phillips is his name. Hyphenated. Black guy. And, um, fourteen are to be hanged. You hear what I'm telling you? Fourteen are to be hanged, twenty other lesser sentences. Fourteen are to be hanged, including [Bernard ] Coard's wife (Phyllis). 6) Now you do think, rather, well you can't believe them, do you think Speakes, Larry Speakes (White House Press Secretary) then, will come and tell you guys what is happening in Grenada? Those are the decisions handed down two weeks ago. They're hanging [Bernard] Coard,(7) who, they should hang him for the, well... kill me for my " bad verses," is it?...They are supposed to hang him for that. And his wife went to UWI (University of the West Indies) and all that. But they'll hang them! Don't take my word, when you go tomorrow, read in the last, read any, any newspaper, because it was in the papers here. I got my news from the Times. I cut it out. I know all these people. They're crazy. I don't agree with their political philosophy. But you can't go and tell people around the world, you can have whatever government you want, provided it's one WE want. You can't do that. You have to have other methods of encouraging them away from what they are doing. But not that. Because you're going to make them more adamant to do it. So, when they hang Mrs. Coard, you wouldn't even hear. Some Black woman in Grenada hanged. That's what you know. They don't want to say all of that. OLIVER NORTH! And don't take my word, go and check the evidence, don't take my...That's how I know Oliver North. | Cloret Carl | UCq5S8izPunV1Wv2BU_GSamw | 2022-07-06 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 2,840 | 15,785 |
eQh9qGD_hYI | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eQh9qGD_hYI | Amherst Planning Board: February 5, 2020 | [Music] okay it is 703 welcome to the Amherst Planning Board Wednesday February 5th 2020 we're in the town room Town Hall and we're gonna start right off with item 1 minutes which I believe we don't have any minutes and we do not item 2 this is a time it's public comment period this is a time for anyone who's here for something and decides something on our agenda that they can come forward and make a statement I see no hands so none this evening we're gonna have a change of schedule we're gonna change instead of moving on to item 3 we are going to move to item 7 new business number a which is chapter 61 a withdrawal request property of the said salsa so tell us Allah is Allah it's all out real Realty Trust land on Sunderland Road accessors map to a parcel 7 and we're going to start with the Director of Planning Christine Bester up who's going to fill us in on some of the background and then we will have the presentation by the applicant good evening I'm Chris breast rep planning director and I just wanted to give a little bit of context to this request that's going to be made the property that is being requested to come out of chapter 61 a is in the professional research park zoning district and there are three such zoning districts in town and I just wanted to help you to locate those so I've got three maps and this is all I'm going to do and then I'm going to take my little thumb drive out and mr. Reedy Tom Reedy is going to use this port to make his presentation on behalf of the owner and I owe the owner and purchaser of the property so the first PRP zone that I'm going to show you is the one in North am Hurst and this is the one that is being considered tonight the property in question sorry about property in question is along Sunderland Road it's almost up at the northern end of town it's this northernmost property in the PRP zoning district this sort of Army green if you would or olive green color here that's all professional research park so there are certain uses that are allowed there and certain uses that aren't so that is professional research park in north immersed the next one will be going to go out of this one oh dear what did I do the next one will be the professional research park on Belchertown Road so again the area in the olive green is the professional research park in Belton all along belchertown Road here's Belchertown Road this is the log town neighborhood this is the this is the entry to Echo Hill and here's rolling green so this is all PRP much of this PRP is wet and some of it has been developed the third PRP we're going to look at is I'm gonna get back to the vial i guess this way okay so the third one we're gonna look at is on North Hampton Road North Hampton Road is route 9 so here's Route 9 here's the University Drive and here is Snell Street so this area in here I think this is called Holly Meadows apartment complex this whole area here that is in the olive green is in the PRP zoning district now most of this is developed for housing currently and housing isn't allowed in the PRP but that was allowed back at the time when this development was built so I just wanted to give you a sense that the PRP zoning districts are limited in Amherst there really isn't much PRP do you have any questions about these areas before I pull this thumb drive out and mr. Reidy starts his presentation David yeah yes please Chris can you just outline into the that PRP zone and and the street names that form that border please so this is North Hampton Road it's called Russell Street and Hadley its North Hampton Road and Amherst here is University Drive there's a Chinese restaurant on the corner here and a real estate office here in a veterinarian's office here and then University Drive branches off into Snell Street which heads on towards South Pleasant Street eventually so our people oriented to this map yes yep the bike path goes through here yep so do you have any other questions about the PRP zoning districts just on the one that we're discussing tonight the three properties below the one we're discussing could you just tell us what's on those properties and it looks like there's a few little triangle pieces on the west side and Sunderland is that part of the PRP that's part of the PRP as well I think there's a house on one of these properties a green house start green house you probably remember it and the other two I don't really remember the other properties here are for the most part open but there is a solar project and I'm trying to figure out exactly where that is I think this is this one here okay so there's a big solar installation solar panel installation right on this property here and the other properties as far as I know are undeveloped undeveloped like farm or farm my forest open space thank you there are a couple of large ponds in that area somewhere do you know where they are right here there's a big pond here and there's a big pond here which i think is connected by a little streams - Hans connected by stream any other questions that it said it okay so I'm going to pull this thumb drive out if we need it we can always get back to it later okay thank you thank you so now we will have a representation for the applet applicant to come forward please introduce yourself with a minute taker sure thank you very much madam chair members of the board for the record Tom Reedy an attorney with bacon Wilson here in Amherst I think it might be useful just to get the GIS map up as well pictures are good always okay so this is the parcel the one that it's highlighted in yellow the parcel that we're talking about it is about a 39 acre parcel altogether there is really only potentially nine acres that are developable on the parcel right here in the middle I can pull up an overlay map so your aerial map so you can see what it looks like this middle area right here probably about four acres of it I think has been farmed or maybe five acres has been farmed in the past I'm not sure of the crop as far as I know from the Java family it's called they call it the island because everything else around it is really really wet and I'll show you up we went through a resource area delineation with the Conservation Commission so I think that will show you exactly how wet that site is historically and maybe a little bit more than you you want to know but I'll probably tell you anyways is all of this land was connected all the way over into Hadley there's a piece of land on the other side of 116 and Hadley that the town has recently acquired it's it's in amherst but it's on the other side of Sunderland Road that the town acquire that was owned by the Jolla family they owned all of this they owned probably two hundred some-odd acres Sunderland Road historically went all the way north right in front of this property and then when the state came I think it was in 1958 and put in 116 it somewhat acted as a dam because if you look at some of the historical photographs of this area you're not necessarily going to see the ponds the way they are now I think I can probably get two maybe I'm a liar so it looks like there is a pond there but at least there was some develop ability or farming could occur in this area and so there there you see pre 116 where Sunderland Road went and so fast-forward to 2004 2005 you'll see what they had for farmland don't I make you everybody sick by zooming in and out it was really just this area right here and then when I put this USB and I think you'll be able to see exactly what you know the extent of the wetlands so Dora into this is sundaland Road here 116 is right here everything in this green kind of triangular area that's all wetlands so all of this is wetlands here there is an existing farm road that accesses this area but that's I even though all of this is wooded over here all that had been farmed is this area here and so the Java family entered into an agreement with Sunderland Road north to sell the property they had been somebody wanted to put solar on it we had been approached by folks who wanted to connect into the substation and put solar on it but understanding not having a lot of PRP land and ultimately the the purchasers of the property want to put something on this land that is allowed in the PRP I think that that's one of that's one of the ideas I don't know what it'll be but that's what they're looking to do and so because we're in chapter 61 a which as most of you know is a tax classification that allows for lower taxes as a result of it being agricultural use one of the keys is when you look to convert it to industrial commercial or residential use you have to give the town a right of first refusal so the town has that right of first refusal what you do is you send notices to the Planning Board the board of Assessors the Conservation Commission the decision makers so town council plus the town manager in this town and then the state Forester to look at it as well and so we've done that the town has 120 days to either exercise or not and so this is just part of the process for your review and whether or not there is a recommendation I don't steal anybody else's thunder but a recommendation or not to that decision-making authority to waive or not that right of first refusal so that's that's what we're here for and we're requesting that you waive it but obviously happy to have a discussion so you're ready for questions me yeah oh yeah okay I see one Maria what did the parallel lines that run yeah good question it's an easement so it's an electric easement so you'll see that the substation is right here I think they call it the podunk substation maintained by the utility companies so that's and they have a utility easement that goes through the property I believe there are utility high tension wires I think you can see maybe some of the bases Janet what would what crops that have been grown on that I mean they're there it's in farm use now right so when I went out there last fall I didn't see anything growing out there it's it's really only in this area I didn't ask the owner what was growing out there but I don't think it's there's probably about four or five acres that can be farmed which I mean I think given some of the other farmland and in the area frankly wasn't that meaningful I mean to these landowners also owned the other side of sunderland Road which they've recently sold to Kestrel trust and so I think that was a hundred and eighty eight hundred and fifty acres maybe of farmland so this was just there is the existing farm road the only feasible vehicular access to buildable portion of the site it is and and following on that question if the property were to be developed that existing farm road would probably not be satisfactory for continued development so we'd have to have a wetland crossing issue and the Scots things correct you're right on top of it mr. Bert whistle yes that's exactly so what we had here was the sWCA is the one that did the let me try to get down there for you I'm sorry sWCA did the delineation so the we looked at what that impact would be to get that road to a width that would be meaningful so that you could actually have construction traffic in vehicular traffic traveling back and forth I think that's either 26 or 28 feet my eyes are failing me a little bit and so that the permanent impact would be 2,800 square feet of permanent wetland disturbance there's a there's a beaver pond there are beavers here that are creating a backup that's I think that's what's causing a lot of the flooding in in the air in this area there is an existing culvert we were out there with Beth Wilson last year to just discuss it because there was they were doing the purchasers were doing due diligence and so this would have to come up to a stream crossing that met the Massachusetts stream crossing standards and one of the questions if you could go back to the large review of the property that section in the upper right-hand corner that ax head up there what's that what is that is there anything up there that's buildable or is that all wetland - it's a good question I I would be I would bet based upon the topography that there is something up here that could be used but I don't know that it is buildable you know I don't know that somebody would access traverse the entire site build a road and go here specifically for something standalone lot it might be if this has developed something accessory or tangential or could be utilized in conjunction with but I think also you know you've got Montague Road right here and you've got neighbors and so further you can stay away from them typically the more likely you are to have a successful successfully permitted project so that's topographically it looks like it's okay I think the wetlands will end you can kind of see if you follow this hand where it looks like the end you can also see where there is an existing looks like an another the existing farm road goes across that wetland as well but again you're getting into with wetlands if you alter permanently alter more than 5,000 square feet you're dealing with the Army Corps of Engineers and if you're dealing with the Army Corps of Engineers you've got to wait a couple of years for your project to actually be approved and built and so really the key is to stay under 5,000 square feet my guess is you may exceed that if you wanted to have something you know accessible to the public if you kept it as a farm road and had it as 12 feet wide and didn't really weren't really impactful you probably don't cross that 5,000 square foot threshold so I think other than something is like I say accessory or used in combination with there's really not much back here that's useful Doug question for Chris yes is this property of any particular value from a conservation or other long-term masterplan point of view this property really isn't next to any conservation land it's across the road from conservation land that the Kestrel Trust has purchased but it's not really next to or contiguous with any other conservation land and I I don't see any particular reason why the town would want to acquire it at this time but you could ask that question of mr. Soumik he might be a little bit better able to answer that question and mr. Soumik is the conservation director director of conservation and also the director of conservation and development so you may wish to ask him that question maybe if I could before Dave starts if you look at the utility map in town you'll see that water and sewer service end right here and they don't extend to the site so any development would necessarily include the extension of that water and sewer to this site which does a couple of things it extends it to these sites the Patterson sites which are currently used for solar solar obviously is a temporary use I mean after 20 years 25 or 30 years it's likely not to exist on our property anymore so by the extension of that water and sewer I think you are increasing the likelihood or the value of these properties and then actually being developed for PRP or some other year so just something to know yes thank you very much Dave's Omak director of conservation and development assistant Town Manager and I think I think Christine and and Tom have covered a lot of it the question about so just a little bit more on contact so and Chris can help me out here but this property has been zoned PRP probably going on 30 years or so if you look back at various plans that the town has put forth including the open space and recreation plan of which this is probably the I'm gonna guess the fourth or fifth update of the open space and recreation plan the area east of Sunderland Road which is all PRP in this area has never been identified as a high priority for open space preservation instead what the town through the years has done is prioritized everything west of 116 and as Tom said earlier late in 2019 the town did pick up about 23 acres of the Zala property here which is really sandwiched between podía Conservation Area here and Katherine Cole sanctuary there I just switched this over so just to give you a little context this is a very sensitive Mouse there we go so this gives you a little sense here is the the 39 acre parcel and so over here to the west of 116 is in Green Conservation Area Green Conservation Area this is actually coded incorrectly this is an AP are an agricultural preservation restriction now so preserve farmland and we haven't quite coded this but this is all protected land as well so in short the town is prioritized the farmland the higher quality farmland to the west of 116 and really from a conservation standpoint stayed away from the PRP I will note also in Tom Caen correct but I believe that this area is also not listed as an area of priority or estimated habitat for rare or endangered species so that's another reason why it is not listed as a high priority in the open space and recreation plan so Janet so um I have a couple of questions um first of all why would the lands west of 116 be like ID'd as priority lands versus the ones east um for a couple of reasons one is that the soils are better west of 116 and that area historically I mean some of these preservation projects go back long before most of us were volunteering or working for the town but 25 or 30 years and so from a contiguous [Music] parcel standpoint the town really said how can we preserve as many parcels that are contiguous farmland as possible and that's why my predecessor Pete Westover began to build on that going back to the 80s so protecting land west and not focusing on this area here and and again I was not privy to those conversations 20-30 years ago but I think earlier planning board's earlier Conservation Commission staff decided that really this was an area that was to be zoned PRP and that it was not to be prioritized as important for conservation or agricultural preservation the soils on the Zala property the Patterson property and the Mitchell properties by and large are not as good as proper as soils to the west of 116 and then over into Hadley so the for the properties that are east have they been assessed in some kind of formal way in terms of like the soils are delineated the wetlands have values they're going to assess for endangered species or you know like has there been like a formal evaluation well typically there's a no formal process but through the years various conne comes planning boards staff members have looked at a lot of those factors scenic values of rare and endangered species habitat is mapped by the state so we can turn on those layers and you see that those areas in the PRP do not contain any rare and endangered species that we know of there are intermittent streams but not perennial streams so there's a number of layers of factors that go into whether an area is prioritized or not and so through the years that was really the conclusion and to be honest the town taking a proactive step to say this is one of the again this was 30 years ago this is one area that we would like to direct development to if sometime in the future the time is right to do that as Tom said Water and Sewer has not been extended all the way up Sunderland Road yet and that's something that the town has considered through the years do you think it has any scenic value or value as farmland that that whole section um we've looked at the soils the soils are not of the highest quality that we would typically prioritize in in ways that we have other farmland there's a lot of places there honestly that have scenic value I grew up in north Amer so clearly there's a lot of areas that have scenic value in north Amherst that typically isn't it is one of many factors that we consider when we look at open space preservation I I have to say that during my tenure as in this position we've really tried to drill down and say what are the true priorities and I think looking on the east side of sunderland Road and the west side the Zala property to the west was surrounded by protected open space it made sense and we're when we're putting together a puzzle and the West is mostly preserved land it makes sense to fill in this is these this 23 acres here one of the last puzzle pieces on the western side this is actually already protected as an APR so we're finishing the puzzle over here by and large we're not likely to go here because it has been zoned PRP for 30 years and it makes sense to have some areas to direct development that the town might want so you so do you think it has scenic value because I mean it's kind of a beautiful stretch as far as I'm concerned and the other question is have you checked with the con come in the farm Commission see what they honey the Conservation Commission will be taking this up a week from today the chapter 61 in the farm Commission the agricultural Commission thank you um would they consulted we typically don't directly consult with the agricultural Commission there's nothing statutorily that says they need to sign off on a chapter 61 it's really a recommendation review and recommendation from the Planning Board and a review and recommendation from the Conservation Commission could you do that um I will say we didn't talk about dates but in fact 120 days for this expires on March 6th so there may not be time but if they meet during February happy to take that to them I don't know when they meet off the top of my head Chris I just want to note that there is a purchase and sale agreement on this property so if the town were to decide to purchase the property the the cost of it would be $400,000 so that would have to be appropriated Doug is it true of chapter 61 property that when it's returned to or taken out of that category that there's some portion of back taxes that are due and if so what what is that quantity of money yeah so you're correct there is a either a conveyance tax or a rollback tax depending upon when the property is being conveyed out and when it was put into chapter classification and so in this case it would be rollback taxes and what the Assessor does is looks at the past five years what it would have been assessed at at its highest and best value and then what it paid for taxes over the past five years I I think that totals may be 13,000 dollars over the past five years according to that was according to Dave Burgess before he left I guess maybe one point on the the scenic nature of it if you've been out to the site you'll see that along 116 there's a bunch of trees a row of trees and then there's wetlands and then more trees and you're not going to be able to take down any of those trees because of their existence in the wetlands so it's not like you can you know if you're if you're thinking about scenic views to the west and I don't know if that's what you're thinking about here you're not gonna be able to get those you would have to actually go in ternal to the site and then you would be dealing with you know you're surrounded by wetlands trees and a beaver pond to the west so just something to consider if you're thinking about the westerly views which is a little different than say the mitchell property here which you know slopes topographically from the east to the west but also has more views because there's less if not many trees on this side so you don't think a building would be seen or I think it would be I think it would be tucked away I mean it's I wouldn't suggest actually driving in there because it's pretty mucky in the house but I mean that that building would be tucked away which is part of the attractiveness of this site is that it's nestled in a way that hopefully is out of the eyesight of the Montague Road folks and then it's tucked far enough back where if you're traveling on 116 your your eye isn't immediately drawn to it if you're familiar with how to get into the site it really is off of this kind of elbow right here of Sunderland Road and then like I said there are all those put the arrow map again there's all those trees right along here and then another buffer right along here then all of this is wetlands that'll just continue to grow up I live near there I Drive by all the time and it's I've never even noticed that that field is in there because of the way the topography is it goes down to the wetlands but then it sort of comes up and and then it rises up behind which is sort of a fist up there you can't see many of the homes but analyzing the numbers you gave it sounds like you're saying that it would it would impact less than 25 percent like the maximum if you said the max is buildable nine acres so it could be potentially 20% or less is actually developed so it's still leaving a lot of the green and scenic beauty yes okay and just one for mrs. omec so are you saying like so this is basically like weighing the value for the town so of course there's the important green you know saving green space element and that's a value but we have limited PRP land so it sounds like the town is not taking an active role in trying to obtain this property because when you put it on the scale yeah so insured couldn't consulting with Chris consulting with other staff my recommendation to the Conservation Commission next week will be that we not acquire this property for agricultural preservation or conservation purposes as I said before you know during my tenure we have really tried to focus our attention on the highest priority Parcells remaining that are unprotected in Amherst and yes there are some trade offs there's some scenic value here there's there's some some wildlife habitat is there a there's wildlife habitat on every piece of property you know including where we all live but as Tom said only about 9% we're skewing 9 acres of 39 will be developed so the remaining land for the most part will be left to grow its protected wetland much of it so the conservation commission through their powers will make sure that if somebody develops this that that land remains in in roughly its natural state so this is not a recommendation that I would make for preservation to you or to the Conservation Commission now again I don't speak for the Commission so they may have a different opinion next week and they they will write an independent recommendation to the council as well but I will make answer questions and make a similar statement to them I would propose a motion but so if there are other questions or discussion so so um does the Planning Board normally wait until they hear from the con come for what about their thing is because I you know because I was thinking and like to hear from the Conservation Commission and then the farm Commission the agricultural committee to see what they say because I don't feel quite equipped to make a decision since we're kind of a broad-based board they were supposed to be looking at farmland protection and scenic and developable land and all those kind of things I'd like to hear from those committees first is that normal so in my long tenure of four years here this has never come up before but I saw an odd no from Chris that that is a I am not aware of any time that the Planning Board has waited to hear from the Conservation Commission about a request for release of chapter 61 a property and I've been here for 15 I agree I think there's different agendas and different roles and charges for each order Commission David I had two questions at the moment I can only remember this first the question that I have is are the priorities for open space and undeveloped land development preservation known or is that like you say this is low on the priority list is the list publicly available or do we do we hold that because we don't really want to tip our hand go ahead so we published an open space and recreation plan we're obligated by the state to required by the state to update that every five to seven years we did an update in 2017-18 it's our most recent update it is online it is available to anyone and there you will see because i refresh my my own memory on it there is a very large circle around that land to the west of 116 and really nothing identified in that area so we identify a high priority areas for wildlife habitat forestry intact forests River River corridors estimated and priority habitat and of course priority blocks of farmland all in that document I remembered the second part which is just sort of a process question if we had a huntin chin on this and it's now there's 30 days before the end of that period has the the planning board's agenda been so busy that this wouldn't have come up before I can definitely say yes David so my understanding is that it's actually the town councils role to is authorized by statute to make this decision and the decision is whether to exercise the right to purchase the right of first refusal right to purchase the property instead of the mr. Rita's client and so it's what it's just it's the planning board's recommendation just like it's any of these other bodies Commission's I'd like to make a I would make a motion that the Planning Board recommends to the Town Council that it not exercise its right to purchase this property that it allows this purchase to go through second we'll have some discussion does anyone have some comments or questions I don't they're following up on mr. Marshalls question so do we normally get this very early in the process and then this coming late is there a process I mean just so-so it came in in early November what we do is we send it off to town council and Town Council evaluates it and then gets back to us and lets us know whether it has followed all the right processes to get to us which includes various types of mailings and format and it has to have all its parts and pieces so our town attorney did get back to us and say yes it is in the right format then we had what did we have a Planning Board meeting after Thanksgiving I think or no we had one before Thanksgiving more which was the 20th so we probably hadn't heard by the 20th we had two very very full shootings in December yeah so far we had one meeting in January and then a kind of a light weight meeting in January so this is the first meeting in February that we've had an opportunity to review this and so do I have any other questions I see none should I have do we have to have public comment on this okay is there anyone here who would like to speak on this yeah I don't see anyone okay oh okay come on up please mm thank you and if you could please just introduce yourself for the minute taker mm-hmm Dorothy Pam town councilor is this anything to do with Eruptor are you in town councilor I I think it's a question that I would want to know as a town councilor and a citizen so we were told there was a possibility of some land somewhere in this area but I have no idea where so I was just wondering if this was a spot where it might go I don't know I don't know if mr. Reedy has any information on that do I go back the abrupt it's um they're talking about building it's like a think tank oh yeah sure so maybe availing a little bit it's a research and development with kind of proof of concept light manufacturing facility that has been rumblings of which has been in the works for I think a couple of years at this point and they are looking to be cited in in north immersed in this general area but that is not the intent of whether it be what I will say is whether it becomes it I don't know but that is not what the purchaser hasn't mind thank you anyone else have a question I see none so at this point we can take a vote but the motion do we have an emotion written down okay all in favor show hands I see I'm like we're missing it one two three four five against and abstain okay so we have five zero one thank you so much for coming good luck thank you and I think we see you next okay you're just gonna stand right here so we will move backwards on our agenda back to item three and I do have a preamble to read okay so it is 7:45 in accordance with the provisions of mgl 40 a this public hearing has been duly advertised and notice thereof has been posted this hearing is being held for the purpose of providing an opportunity for interested citizens to be heard regarding SPR 2020 -

Wroblewski is looking to do is to take down this piece and to rebuild it and to go no closer to the lot line than it currently is essentially take it down put it right back up but it will be new and I think there's a few good reasons to do that and so you're finding needs to be that him doing that is not substantially more detrimental to the neighborhood than the existing location off of the side lot line and we would suggest that it's not so that's that's what's existing and then I'll scroll down I can show you it as well after and so that's what's proposed so it's this portion right here that is coming down in effectively being repurposed but not going any closer to the lot line and so I've got four more visuals here is that area that's going to come down you can see on the back here what's coming down and then where it's going back up in and what is going back up in its place so I think we discussed this last time but this is just the technical means to get to where we need to get to and so we would suggest that you could make the finding that it's not substantially more it's not detrimental at all let alone substantially more detrimental so if I don't know if you want to take the special permit now and discuss it or how you want to do it but just I think it's probably the low-hanging fruit here do people have questions on this I do what does the the repurposed addition whatever we want to call that little section look like from the side of the abutters other any windows on that back side John and there will conduct the same as it does now trailer is part you know if you remember people that went out to the safest at that portion of the building is just set on stone and loose brick and that's why it's sagged that much so be rebuilt in that same spot with one window on the back so yes I'm looking at the butter side it's not going to look any different other than the extension of the roof for the bike cover which will also be closer to the light lot long and it's currently allowed that where the bike cover is actually it's going to be pretty close to the ten feet the front of the front of the existing house is 4.9 feet almost five feet in the south end of the house is you could go back to the previous map right there and then a back the back corners nine and a half feet so nine feet six inches so the farther it goes back those lines spread so it's pretty close to the ten feet at that point it's it's parallel with the splat side of the building correct right but not parallel to the property line of a person right so so that covered bike shelter if where it begins is nine point five I see what you're saying by the time you get to the northern edge of it you're an MP so it's a little triangle you're saying a sliver of that covered bike shelters in this within the ten foot buffer Maria that perspective you showed Thomas shows how the lower left one was that basically is the view from the butters sort of mirrored in a way because it looks like it's you know you see the shed you see the little gable roof the only issue and I agree you're not really going that much closer to you're not making it more non-conforming in other words I guess the only thing is if there's lighting for those bikes under this sort of open air is theirs I don't remember this the light sort of Matt but um is there gonna be spillage to the butters or I mean I'm sure it's downcast but before you know it was just a structure but now you have a covered bike storage area which is actually yeah there is gonna be a no lighting plan shows that just recessed lights or you know lights on the ceiling that are just pointing down currently there's a spotlight on that back door there hmm which is you know kind of shine so actually the Lightning for the neighbors will be improved and is that a six-foot fence about six and a half six and a half Janet having a little trouble so in the top picture and the left what's that thing in the corner is that like a trailer or something it is a trailer it just belongs to that photo was used because it kind of gave the right angle to a superimposed a new addition on it's not there it hasn't been there for like two years it was a trailer for Crossman properties and so when we go to the new picture right below it is that trailer still there yeah just only because it the way they superimpose it and I don't know maybe Chris knows how Photoshop works or something that's why it looks kind of yeah out of place where it's set but there's no other way I guess to show the roofline and how it she used it as the base and and so the rendering on it so if you took the trailer away could the person in the next-door backyards see the bikes no ok so there's like there's like a wall it's is very I'm gonna have fence there okay and then the other question I have just partly for the visual confusion is does the so there's a roof line for the little little house and then for the bike shelter it doesn't go the build it's not any long bigger than it is now no it follows the same roofline that they know the new structure will the only difference is the new structure is going to be a little bit higher like a foot and a half higher because those walls on the exist I can stand on my forehead touches that gutter so it's it's not any bigger in terms of a roof or okay it's just a little prop it's hard to see this part I see none you want to move to the SPR short journey right now or after who's just asking about public comment and if you wanted to take it now for the just specials permit or if you're gonna for this ah does anyone here have questions on the special permit the park I see none so maybe what we can do is talk about architecture and then turn around and talk about maybe management in parking after that if that's okay and so I don't know if Christine you want to talk through some of the changes that you made and maybe what I will do would you rather as a board see all three what was originally approved what was proposed last time you had the flippers here yeah what was approved proposed and that's a genuine question I just go with what's current what's to let the latest of the greatest perfect and if we need perspective we know that you can flip well I agree with that it's on my resume after the last big bill good evening my name is Christine Royal I'm an architect working with maple street architects out of Northampton I am a town resident as well so based on the committee's feedback from our last meeting we have adjusted the way that the front facade looks facing though yeah the way the front facade looks at the street we did at a window as suggested which really does help reduce the size of that wall the green wall that faces the street gives it some context and we added the low planting shrubbery at the parking spaces that you can see up front we also had a discussion about the existing up lighting on the sign so our proposal is to relocate the existing pole light that you can see back by the porch and the stairs to the front mm-hmm to the front by the lower shrubbery and the basically to about right here so that it'll light both the sign and the entry and the parking and remove the existing up light that shines on the signage there was also discussion about the bracket detailing on the existing building and while it's not shown in this rendering we have gone through and pulled some bracket detailing and reviewed it with the owner to to use as detailing on the wood trim porch of the new proposed which would be here oh yes and then you also were wondering about the the mullion details on the windows which we've included in the rendering which was the intention originally but as you would note it wasn't really visually represented in this so the the view from the west looking at the West facade has not changed very much but I don't I don't think that there was really a lot of comment on the way that this had been broken down by proportion and by massing of the window in the West on unit for this one my other right I think some of the comment was previously there was nothing here and it was just a lot of massing and so there's obviously the addition of that one though could you just do one flip back so we can just have one rememory of do you know what we looked at last time okay without the with the massing or you know without the extra detail just so we can really go oh yeah now did you change the windows I think there were bathroom windows in the back they still you know small but they look more robust did you put wider trim on them or so I think when we went through and defined the mullion details on those front bottom windows mm-hmm when we redefined these and the rendering we did the same thing to redefine these that's discussed you know they pop a little more mm-hmm so should I open are you ready for questions does the board have any questions on this new rendering Maria questions you know thank you for that Burton making any other changes I I like the project last week and I think you've actually approved it just putting a little more scale sort of things and tweaking it and I think that the scale of it fits the adjacent properties and the language so but yeah thank you for you know making that extra changes question thank you we appreciate the dialogue and the feedback that we've received any other questions or comments on this part Michael I'll have to echo Maria's I think it looks much better it's amazing what one little change can make like one of you anyway what it does for me is it separates the front section of the building from the back section building so it again looks like it used to in the original rendering which was almost like two separate buildings and that it looks like that again thank you thank you so we will move on to the other documents it could be asked questions yeah if you've got general questions we're happy to answer them if you want us to explain the parking plan I know parking came up last time we're happy to do that that's exactly what I was thinking I noticed you have an addendum to those were just the tooth you have parking management plan and then you had an addendum adjusted I wasn't sure how is that an addendum to your no it it's an addendum to the management plan so what the by law requires is some additional information and so the last time we had the previous number of units the total number of dwelling units and now that has changed so in the same thing with the number of bedrooms so miss breaststroke suggested that and recommended that we update that to reflect what's actually in front of you so that's all we've done is is to update that are there any questions from the board on any of this additional information provided parking spaces or the management plan okay I'll go ahead Michael and then Janet I still AM concerned about the parking spaces the number of them and first of all the my notes here excute forgive me yeah on page 7 of the development application report the the applicant is proposing 32 parking spaces overall including 16 compact spaces as I read this the zoning bylaw it says 50% of the of the standard parking spaces can be a cup for compact spaces but that's if you take 50 percent of 29 parking spaces sorry where am I gonna get my math correct here there there are not 16 full parking spaces if you don't take out the handicapped spaces am I am I correct in that they're all together 32 spaces correct so you and yes if you see 16 subtract the ad a compliant spaces which I would French those are not standard parking spaces I've never I don't think right I mean I think we have interpreted it as and in previous projects have interpreted as if there's a different interpretation it's somewhat news to me that the standard parking spaces are inclusive of the a.da spaces because they are standard standard a da but they're still standard it is not that I think the distinction is standard and compact not necessarily standard standard a da and compact and so the a da spaces are considered standard with 32 total standard spaces half of those would be the 16 which were at that 50 percent threshold well that's one way of reading the the bylaw I'm not that's the only way or the correct way in addition holding that in advance i with with thirty five bedrooms and twenty five spaces for residents that seems significantly less than even one space per per unit per per bedroom when the bylaw calls for two spaces per unit so I think we're asking for a very large waiver here and I'm not comfortable with that size of a waiver and given the nature of the of the building and the proposed occupancy of the building which still as I understand it excludes undergraduates although I'm confused about that sometimes it says there will be undergraduates the it's available for undergraduates and sometimes say it's not so I don't know where we stand on that issue but either way it seems to be designed for graduate students and young professionals and some of the one-bedroom units and sewer units and presumably most if not all of the two-bedroom units will have more than one person living in them presumably and the likelihood of more than one person living in a in a unit having only one car is you know it's likely that that will happen it's also likely that it may not happen in certain can certain instances to people living in one space frequently have different jobs go to different places have different lifestyles in terms of their relationships and may in fact need two different cars so there's a certain logic to having two cars required for a for a unit on the one hand I can understand the notion that well the market will take care of this if people want to live here and you know they know that they can't they can only have one car and that's it it's so the market the buyer beware on the other hand and there's a certain logic to that I can understand that but on the other hand it's part of the board's responsibility it seems to me to protect potential tenants and to provide them with reasonable facilities to ensure that they have reasonable facilities at their disposal and I am I question whether less than one parking space per unit purpose art per bedroom is a reasonable provision of parking under the circumstance good bus service there and I understand you're providing a bicycle of facilities and many of your residents will take advantage of those on the other hand Everest is still a town and it's not a city the buses don't go everywhere you know the bike will go everywhere if you have enough time and energy to write it anywhere but buses and bikes and walking are important in this area but they are not the end-all and unfortunately for us in this day and age maybe not 20 years from now but now we are in an area in era and an area where the automobile is important and to most people and I I question whether we have enough parking that's sort of the end of my statement well you were next to the queue so I have my section of the bylaw 7.9 on waivers and I think at the last we met I asked you for information and data that would meet the waivers requirement and so my question is what is your giving if you can give me some information on what you expect people what kind of your attendants tindy in terms of cars and so I can give you a bunch of stats from the master plan and then from the transportation plan and then some a few from the PPTA they're all very discouraging about non car use and so we you know the the I assume you're going under you're trying to waiver provision are you going under when you seek your waiver I think we're looking at seven point nine one zero where you've got two complimentary uses so we've got the office the commercial spaces during the day and then we have residential at night so I think not the double count is important and then we're also providing a parking management plan and so when you ask what do we think we need I think what mr. wróblewski is providing is is what he thinks he needs and it's it is based upon what he's seen at his Bruce Ridge project what he's seen at 70 University Drive and in that project and also looking at just parking utilization and typically what you're seeing is about and I think John's got some data he went out I think this morning at 4:30 to to take a look at a bunch of different housing projects in the surrounding area and to count the number of cars and he's come up with similar to what you find out of Boston or Cambridge or Arlington that there's a 36% I think is the number utilization rate so or put another way of 64 percent utilization rate and when we're looking at what John's providing here I think the market does help dictate I think there are a significant number of existing and proposed housing for folks who want cars want to vehicles or don't want any vehicles I know there are folks who say I'm not gonna have a car and that's why I live in Amherst in if you look at the the bed two parking space ratio you're at 71 percent so that's even above what the utilization rate is and that's building in you know the ATA spaces the Eevee's phases and I think you've got the guest parking as well and so I think from not to speak for John but to speak for John from his perspective he's got sufficient parking and I think appropriately managed because I think to a certain extent I don't respectfully know if it is the Planning Board's job to look out for the tenants I think there is a tenant obligation to look I think if you're looking out for someone it's probably for the neighbors of the neighborhood to make sure that folks aren't sneaking cars on and parking in the street or parking somewhere where they're not supposed to and then you've got a hazard for pedestrians and abutters and all and all of that and so I think that comes down to management of it and appropriate management to make sure that folks aren't parking where they're not supposed to that the lease is restrictive and up and and penal enough where if somebody is doing something they're not supposed to that you let them know and then they're there's potentially an eviction after that and so I think to answer your question long-winded Lee but is directly as I think I know how it's the seven point nine point one seven point nine point one zero and seven point nine one two with the parking management of them the two complementary uses so I mean we're happy to get into some of that those numbers if you'd like to but I think that's it's John sense and position that given everything he knows and given the way it's going to be managed this is sufficient so you have data so and it's based on one morning going around to different yeah I went this morning at 4:30 in the morning and drove around you know kind of the perimeter of where senator Murray's comments will be and you know I'm familiar with what's here as far as other apartments and so forth so I mean 13 and 15 High Street is right across the tracks six new units were built there probably four or five years ago so they have 16 spaces there they're not marked out it's gravel parking there was eight cars parked there so that's fifty percent utilization my property of 22 high street they got thirty four spaces in nearest 20 cars parked there about 4:30 this morning 70 University Drive I drove down there there's 47 spaces and there was 25 cars I'm sorry there was 34 spaces and 24 being used 20 when there's how many apartments are in that complex 12 so in that complex I have 2.3 three spaces per unit and they've been empty like I went there to say afternoon and replaced some parking lot lights and post lights there were seven cars enough parking lot so and there's other data I've been researching this the past couple of weeks there's all kinds of information out there as far as parking utilization is being over built in past years and out of different areas of including Massachusetts are looking at parking for new development soon excuse me I'm sorry you got interrupted can you go back to University Drive and the numbers you had there you were going through your list yes 70 University Drive you familiar with that there's 47 parking space there's sixty bedrooms there 36 apartments 25 cars were parked there this morning so that's 46 percent that's not being used 622 and 630 main street it's on the corner of Spaulding and main there's 12 units there again it's not marked out there was I figured up enough for like 30 cars there there was 15 part there my property I have another house 734 Main Street they have ten bedrooms there three units I had six cars there Salem place now Salem place is probably a good thing like mr. burr would say you're referring to its student rentals I think there's a lot of undergrads there from my past experiences you're on a police department and so forth there's 82 parking spaces there and there was 20 that were empty so that's you know a lot more cars were parked there so that's still left 24 percent that weren't being used Aspen chase which is between college Street and Main Street there's 67 bedrooms they are 82 spaces there were 16 empty there so that's the more student rentals there to it they're smaller one-bedroom wondering two bedrooms they're very small 683 Main Street which is Watson farms it's actually a town project there I don't know if it's a subsidized project or what but there's some small units there one bedrooms and there's some three and four bedroom units there there's 52 bedrooms there 46 parking spaces there's only 19 cars parked there so it's 58% unused the end Spaulding Streeters a condo sir they're basically rental units they're 24 spaces they had 14 cars 35 high street which is right across from Spruce Ridge on High Street there's 11 units there 18 spaces had 11 cars parked there and then 285 Main Street is the building down here that burned few year couple years ago and they rebuilt it six units in there 16 parking spaces there is nine cars so overall it there was 403 parking spaces available in 146 were empty and this goes with a lot of data I've been reading Boston did a twenty surrounding metro Boston they did 20 communities there and they found 36% of parking spaces and condos and multi families were going unused and I think cities and towns are starting to look at this and say that's space that can be used to create more housing and more return to the cities and towns as far as tax dollars provide like close proximity to transit as a big thing governor Baker just signed a thing last month you know about it's the transportation and Global Initiative or something and part of that is smart parking and this is what they talk about creating less parking and some other studies that are out there said if you build more parking you're going to entice people to get a car you build less the idea I guess is to build the amount of parking that is going to be used so I mean looking at these figures even from this morning I think what we're asking for will work you know based on next door based on these a lot of properties and I think the way we're designing this part of it goes along with a master plan by the way too from chapter 9 a transportation and circulation objective T 4 says Amherst should revise it zoning and subdivision regulations to promote infill and direct new development toward appropriate locations and to allow density sufficient to support a viable public transit I think this is why this particular parcel was included in the BN rezoning back in 2011 somewhere in there so it kind of fits and then the other option if you look along term is are we going to have you know rail service here at some point in the future is it going to come back probably not but you can track so right there it just it fits the scenario of providing housing more dense housing in an area on the outskirts of downtown where public transit is available and I've got data from the key VTA I'm that'll back a lot of things up to in bikable area walkable area in nine minutes here right here yeah I spoke with the Alex forest from the PVTA Planning Department and he's aware I told him he was gonna be possibly 35 more bedrooms here and he's the iodized route is already overloaded if you remember the last meeting I said one of my tenants was coming over and he they wouldn't let him on a bus because it was full and he gets a skateboard to go to UMass but in September of 2019 that stopped they call it a grace the grace Street stop the average daily board was 202 people so I mean this whole neighborhood there uses that and it's I think just it makes sense for this project to go there for a lot of good reasons I think in the way I've got it laid out sentries Commons this creates a nice walkable attractive and efficient building there and it's going to serve the tenants Braille well it's going to serve the businesses that'll be located there well and it creates the infill that I think was part of the mentioning in the master plan and it's a nice balance of residential business and green space you know as part of the redesign you know I have more green space between the buildings there instead of parking the bike rack and everything and it sits right next to the PVTA and I just think it makes sense and I feel myself that the park and is it going to work in as far as you know more than one person four bedroom I've always had a rule of one one person per bedroom marry couples obviously you're going to run in that but I've got a married couple of next nextdoor there and they've got one car they've got a married couple at 7:34 main street they've got one car and a bike so I really feel it's it's very doable and it's gonna work I just want to make one quick comment that the study you were referring to was sent to the Planning Board this week it's the Metropolitan Boston perfect fit parking initiative from the MAPC that just came out in july 2019 so it's very current yeah aren't you very good about restating most of what I found what I found interesting is when I added these spaces up later today and divided them into the total available 36% come on use the same as Boston area what I noticed that when you read it but yeah so I saw Janet's hand and and then Michael no one can I just say one more things I'm regarding um the issue of the two parking space or the 50% compact I'm pretty sure we got an interpretation from Rob on that that it was a total parking okay so it's not you know the standard that mr. Burt was so brought up it's the 50% of the total parking including handicapped evie station cetera and it makes sense because the cars are much smaller and that the old Buick LeSabre is you know years ago um so I appreciate that you did that because I did that one morning to the high street thing and most of those spaces were used on a Sunday morning and so sometimes you'll have a guest stay overnight here or something out of weekends yeah so there were only six empty spaces so I think that this is actually where I was sort of heading which is that we need more information about parking use and what are people going to do so that was like a snapshot and I appreciate that you were up at 4:30 doing that and the transportation plan calls for the town to do studies of actual use need and after doing those kind of studies to change the zoning bylaw to adjust because different parts of town will have different needs the master plan like you just said you know do basically revise your zoning regulations and so I think that this issue that you're raising is very critical but and we just don't have the data and so you know that is a great snapshot I'd love to see more so I collected some data from some of its from the master plan for some cement transportation plans some from the American Community Survey some from the PPTA and some from the assessor's office in Amherst only 10% of people used the bus only 3% bike overall in Amherst Center 30% walk to work this is this is the percentages for people who are commuting 30 percent walk but that area called Amherst center includes the UMass and the whole campus the ridership on PVTA is going is down it's down to 4% they've they've reduced some of their bus service there's 2,000 more cars there that pay excise tax and Amherst in 2019 and then 20 2009 and we know we have at least two or three thousand more students here there are more cars and fewer bus drivers overall I don't have the numbers of the pvt I use in Amherst I couldn't pull that out of the document and so 32 percent of commuters work outside of Amherst there's not a lot of information about individuals car use because I think this is a really hard place to live without a car and most people I know who are couples have two cars at least and so that's that would be really interesting to me about how many cars per person you know in Somerville where I used to live which is the most dense community city in north New England there's one car for every like 1.15 six of a person which is sort of startling because it's very dense and has a lot of mass transit we're not that well served by mass transit unless you're going to UMass or hadley or Northampton when the schools are in session and after that it really drops down and so I think that I would I want I'm yeah I I want to I would love information on the waiver like these are not going to be undergraduate students that you're keeping out they're gonna be grad students they're gonna be adults they're gonna be people with jobs and I'm not I need to be convinced that going to that amount of cars is going to use them the other question I really have is you know if I had two people lower for the Super Bowl that would kill the guest spaces in this thing and so I think when you say that people have people over for the weekend people have guests they visit there's just not a lot of space here for people and so it we've gone from 48 spaces down to 32 some of those are handicap spaces and so it's really you know it's really compressing the site and what happened will need a car that management plan for that and how does your plan reduce the use of you're expecting from people I still think take it I'm sorry I think taking away saying telling tenants you can't park doesn't reduce the need for parking it just reduces the parking so the management plan is supposed to reduce the need for parking and then provide I mean so when I look at management plans I see you know carpools vanpools in Somerville there's like a guaranteed ride so if you need a ride you get a guaranteed ride there's ways of helping people who need a car how'd it get there some other way so that's that's what they're saying you know millennial groups age 16 at 34 because of uber and lyft and everything else in the cost of owning a car they're just not doing it they're not buying houses you're not buying cars that's a new generation and I think that's where we're looking you ought to provide housing for to a certain extent or anyway and it's not all you know I don't know what the mix is going to be you mean that's our hope you know as far as tenants but in a new management plan I say well-qualified undergraduates so it's it's a way you manage a property to be straightforward about it and I've always been pretty tight on managing and Toman cars if I need to but I've never went into that problem to be honest you know Super Bowl parties or whatever you park on the street for that night like anybody does you know if you had a party at your house you don't have enough room in their driveway that's for the apart it's only for a few hours but I got to look at you know from my management standpoint the owner of the property how am I going to enforce that is it going to be enough and based on my experience with the two other properties in town since 1981 I think this is very - opponent and very controllable any other questions Maria so we keep saying we need a lot of data a lot of data and I don't think this project is the product to solve our distance between what's in our zoning bylaw for parking and what this project is providing I think we should look at this project through the lens of site plan review and what this owner has done with the space that they had available we very respectfully scale the project through the neighborhood you can see from the site plan they maybe can add one or more spaces but then they'd lose the green space so based on the space they have in the site the number of actual beds is 35 beds and there's 32 spaces so again right some of those spaces are handicapped or electric charging spaces so it's not mmm too far off and I really appreciate the data you collected that was really eye-opening and I hope that was all captured in the minute because I'd love to keep that data and so also hearing how you will be really respectfully managing this property as you do your other properties I feel like we shouldn't be punitive to this project and this client this odor this developer this because this project is done very well as far as being respectable the site maximizing the number of units that you know they think the market can handle or is is asking for and space in these high-density areas near downtown is so valuable to give that space to a car seems so backwards to me but again that's a bigger discussion wheat we should be looking at this project for itself what it's providing and based on what it is providing as far as the number of housing the amount of office space and the parking they're not it's not like there's this huge reach of a you know greedy sort of I'm gonna put 200 units and provide eight spaces you know it's pretty close and I think too have the parking be the reason this project doesn't go for it is a real shame I think it's gonna bring a lot to this area and yeah I don't think it's a big ass I don't think it's a big take that they're taking from the community by not reaching the two per unit parking requirement that's currently in our zoning bylaw and I think we should just focus on this project and not about the bigger issues of what-ifs you know what if this person has one car two cars or what if you know I think just looking at this project it's done very well for the space that has and for giving a good balance between residents office users and so I guess I just I would I would hate to see this project I wonder because of a bigger discussion where we've been constantly having on many projects about parking count so yeah that's right - sighs could I make them on comment well two comments you know this if you look at the project you approved last July the number of bedrooms is sixteen point six percent more so it's not all that much more as far as a bedroom count I forgot what the other point I was gonna make it'll come Doug I just wanted to confirm it's my understanding I am NOT voting on this because I was not part of the earlier hearing I was gonna bring that up next that I was gonna finish with the questions on this but then remind everyone that if we are going to take a vote on this that both the SP and the SPR need five votes to per supermajority of seven members of the Planning Board we have one member that is sick today and we have a new member which I was gonna introduce you at the end but we have Doug here and due to the way it works it has been decided that he is unable to vote today so there's only yes so there's only five of us here and we will need a unanimous vote so we need to come to some kind of agreement on the parking because that seems to be the issue I just want to put um I um know a lot about parking probably too much but I just want to bring up one other element that hadn't come up that you know transportation is is quickly evolving and preferences are changing the data shows that that's what these parking studies are showing that the generations that are behind us are changing their driving habits and a lot of that has to do with climate change and Amherst is a place that really believes in sustainability and green issues and this is one way maybe we can justify why we would okay a project like this today in The Gazette senator Hines had an editorial about you know the green initiatives that are being taken up by Governor Baker and there was just one stat it said Massachusetts has five million cars and light trucks and they contribute to 40% of our carbon emissions every day so if nothing else I know as a parking semi professional that this ratio is okay you build your parking for it to be 80 to 90 percent you don't build it to be 30 or 40 and for event parking that's not what you do so you want to find that that sweet spot and do we know if this is the sweet spot we do not but I'm willing to take a risk because this building is being built for more than a 30 year lifespan and I know that five years from now we will be a hundred percent sure on this sweet spot as we have looked at the studies the number is far below one I mean that that 18 municipalities they looked at the number ended up being closer to 0.55 so if that's my two cents David um while I'm sympathetic to the request for the waiver of the parking requirements the study that had a number of people have cited and that you cited to mister last week did ties for the reduced parking with also an increased opportunity for affordable housing and it seems that this is an opportunity here for two you know one way to I think perhaps persuade be more presentable a more persuasive case perhaps for the reduced parking is that according the getting of metro Boston perfect fit parking initiative providing affordable units reduces the demand for parking even more in the cording to the study and intuitively that make sense to me and because of the location of it this site seems like it's an opportunity would that be something that you would be willing to consider would yeah would that be something you're willing to consider I'm not sure I'm not really familiar I've heard stories about if you do provide an affordable unit that the town managers or something and I guess it would be have to be something I would look at or one more information on I'm really not familiar with dealing with that I know I know how to deal with my properties and sure well it does involve the process maybe Chris can elaborate on that what it entails like the monitoring yes suppose I think mr. Reedy is probably a really good resource for this right now because he has a client who recently built to building on University Drive and he for affordable units there and he's building another building on University Drive and including I believe five affordable units but in any event it requires it's a it's a fairly complicated process you have to unless you're very well schooled at it you need to hire somebody to help you hire somebody to do a lottery to choose tenants and then once the tenants are chosen you have to sort of monitor their eligibility to remain where they are and you have to you know do reporting and you have to put your property under a deed restriction in order to make sure that those units are maintained as affordable so you know there is there is some more to it than just charging lower rents maybe just a bunch of that a little bit well Chris mentioned with the deed restriction so there's a regulatory agreement that is required to be signed to qualify the unit or the units on what's called the subsidized housing inventory which is monitored and managed by the Department of Housing and Community Development one of the provisions of that regulatory agreement requires that if the property has ever transferred the town and the DHCD effectively get to disqualify anybody that would want to buy the property if it doesn't meet certain requirements and so when we're talking about you know mr. wróblewski and if there was a regulatory agreement associated with it and if you were ever to sell it to transfer it he would have to first go to the town and say here's what I'm transferring with - what do you think I can tell you just from some transactional experience time is the friend of no deal and then if somebody who is also not well versed in the subsidized housing inventory or what it entails because there are costs associated with lottery there are costs associated with the monitoring and maintenance and then there's also less rent so for one or for one bedroom let's say with a utility allowance you're probably less than $700 a month and for maybe that's a studio and for 1-bedroom we're probably at seven hundred and ninety dollars a month for a two-bedroom or probably at $1,000 a month which is if you know what market rate rents are here at Amherst there's a few hundred dollar per month difference and so that is borne entirely by the developer at that point they have to construct it the same way that they do every other unit and so but they're getting less rent for that unit or those units but it's that all of that aside I think it's that regulatory agreement in that the additional hurdles to jump through for a transfer of the property that can cause some concern especially if someone were to come and look to buy it you also if you're going to get a mortgage you have to get the bank to be on board with having this regulatory agreement as well and so it's while it is I mean good intentions and we understand I think maybe mr. Wroblewski will have to think about it offline a little bit I mean I don't know part of this is contextualizing where we are right now and so he has an approved project with 30 beds and he's coming back to ask for five more beds and it feels like there's can I agree with the Planning Board member who says let's look at what we're doing here with the infill development and what this is in the scope of it and understanding that there are larger issues in town I mean I think you know that I'm involved in a lot of the different projects and all of the parking of the affordable of all these issues but I would agree that this isn't respectfully the project to have hung up for those things I think there has to be a zoning bylaw change I think the Planning Board understands that and they're gonna get data and actually affects you like that and I think that a that is both parking and with affordable units I think there's a lot that should and can be changed I think that there are waivers you know when there are folks that may say you're not working in accordance with the bylaw and my response would be no this is exactly what the bylaw provides because it builds in that section 7.9 waiver mobility if you wanted it to be in accordance with the viola you wouldn't provide an out through a waiver you would require somebody to go through a variance which is a very specific process under state law with the Zoning Board of Appeals that require soil shaper topography right I mean you get it if we won't have to talk about other towns that you can get it in but I just I want to suggest that this is an appropriately designed site based upon the the data that John has looked at based upon personal experience and I think based upon best practices so I will we'll look at the the affordable pieces a little bit of horse-trading frankly I don't know that I could recommend that he says it's worth the five bedrooms to go through it because I can tell you that with Amherst Housing Authority as far as marketing goes you're talking about you know for the four units on University Drive was twenty five thousand dollars just to go through the market the lottery to get to that point and that's not the annual monitoring it's not the maintenance and it's not the difference between fair market and what you're getting and so there there's a lot and I think is you're thinking about zoning changes maybe I don't think developers mind doing it if there's some incentive if you get more market rate units and so that subsidy is kind of spread out a little bit more evenly instead of all affecting the developer so well but you are getting more units you're requesting five more units side more beds right you know to talk about that a little bit in my years of dealing with people I mean I understand people we're all people and there's situations that have come up through the years where and the rent is considerably lower because I recognize that they have family issues or whatever they're trying to raise three kids or whatever so you know in a way I'm dealing with subsidies I'm taking money out of my pocket in my voice pocket my grandchildren's pocket so to speak but I understand people have different things going on in their life we all do and I I guess I manage from the heart not only from the pocketbook Janet so this issue for me is important because I think that if we go from the bylaw which requires two parking spaces per unit and then we're going down you know one space per bed or whatever I think we're starting using this waiver the Planning Board is starting to amend the bylaw buy waiver and my question is how do you meet the standards of this waiver and it's not to me it's very specific it is important to me what it says and I think the impact is it does land on the tenants that can land on the neighbors and so I'm not you know and you do have a project that came to us before and I was I was so I really like that project the first one I thought well there's enough parking there's enough space you know it's it's right size for the lot and everything like that so I don't think we're gonna kill that project if we say no to this project and I just think that we can't you know every time we talk about the perfect report which is based on the Boston metro area I don't know why we're talking about it because we don't live in a city you know that we don't live in a major metropolitan area and I would be very interested in knowing what the parking needs are in Amherst and that's what the transportation plan identifies specifically you know the downtown is when well studied but even in you know we have a no parking district where there's one people are looking you know in those two buildings they're using more than one permit or parking permit or space per unit and so that isn't quite working and so you know I would recommend the Planning Board look at that and say you know we need to have enough parking for people in a building and so I just think I think we need to do the studies before we do amend the bylaw and I'm not willing to amend the bylaw by just waving and waving and waving and what we you know believe about Millennials or what we think is going to be in there you know I just I don't I just don't have the data and I would actually love to I love that you went out and did that because I sort of do that too okay so at this point let's just move on to some other issues that were left hanging at the last meeting I had a question about the landscaping at the last discussion a member had brought up concern about the parking spots in front of the existing building and we talked about how they were going to be the eat the electric charging station spots and why they had to be there because they're near the connection and all that but there was talk about how you know it you know everybody doesn't think electric cars are beautiful but not that beautiful so you talked about putting a bed and I saw that there were some plants but I was still a little concerned if there you know 365 year-round plants or could it be a fatter bed could it tie-in to where the sign is you know actually create a larger bed with some actual bushes and greenery so what we've got on the screen is what we're proposing but I think we can take a look at making it more robust so you this is the spot this is the spot that you're talking about right here yes exactly we there was nothing there before right there was nothing there before so it got brought up so the architect has had added she mentioned that during her talk that she did put some greenery there I'm just saying I in my mind had something a little bit more robust I think it was Maria who prophesied if you there's there's gonna be some ton obviously those aren't it's a size but there's gonna be some taller strobes around the transformer there in the back so you're gonna have the parking space barrier so to speak the sign and some bigger bushes behind there also I think it's shielding the cars from the roadway too so you don't notice the cars of the parking lot so much like a you know it's a bit of a raised bed around the sign if maybe you just had a little bit like continued that raised bed and come around and then just put some meds some more robust s-- yeah it's sort of green you know some some of it to be more green or ever greeny or something that you know shields you know it's New England's we can you know we can look at that and whether it's like a a spruce or something that's yeah we can some low or but you know that quick can can I be reminded why the transformer has to be there or is it just there or anywhere it connects if you move them to behind is that more expensive or okay and so I didn't realize that shrubs had been put in I would recommend them high enough to screen the view to cover the car because you know when you go up Main Street you basically see lawns and lawns and lawns and so this would sort of jump out as cars looking like they're parked on the lawn yeah hi scrubs would be great because if you remember the the topography Rises yes and if you put even if it's a foot raised bed and then you have a four foot bush I think you're lower on the street so you can see I think even bushes it's probably gonna be similar to what's a University Drive so about six feet six feet high yeah I've got a but those bushes in front of the existing porch early seven and a half feet tall and most some of them are evergreen as you see they're thinking a high Liana corner and the rhododendron and in summertime it's burning bush or something that's in between there so as you're looking up uphill plus the four the Transformers going we're lower in that section about a foot to a foot and a half that transformers placement is between the roads in the street correct right yes so you need to plan something else in front of the transfer chance right yeah which I do remember that being talked about you talked about bushes five feet or something yeah there's three bushes that we talked about this isn't a hokey Cypress that they're family growing there yeah possibility one landscaper so we can transplant those over to there those are like six and a half feet that's an hour and there was talk I'm looking up the driveway and I do see some like Arbor vitaes or bushes as you go up the driver on the right in front of the new building further up we had talked about thinking about a tree or something cuz there was some green space there I don't know what well that's if you remember the comment that I said we can't put much in the front between the railroad tracks so the right side her - driveway because that's where - stormwater underground tanks are right so we can't have roots growing into the air I think we were talking about between where you're gonna put that new rebuilt shed area and your front door of your existing there was just like green space right there really there's in that area that you know the architect was gonna look at that I think propane is their propane - yeah I read that's about the only spot right there okay yeah that's buried there and cover for the propane tank is gonna stick up I think like six or eight inches but it's 16 feet long pretty but I'm thinking you know maybe a sitting bench in that area yeah that's what I have next door I used some of the stone in fact from where we took a barn down that was dilapidated on the High Street property built stone walls in front of the house use it for sitting benches he was there for you know landscape highlights the stones it came from the site nice and if you could remind me of how many bike spots you had on the outside and in the well that the bike rack area is gonna be like 14 feet long okay so it's basically attached to the what you see now that's there it's 14 by 14 they were just adding that little area to the left for more trash and recycling I think there's like 14 you can put like 14 or 15 bikes you know with the loop style plus what's inside in the back of the trash building there probably another probably 15 20 points there okay great wonderful it's a good place tough bike and the other point I thought of the dancer a question is you know it says seven office spaces in the existing building now keep in mind one of them is the section that we're gonna rebuild okay so that's one office so now we end up with six now the way it's been run over the years when we bought it is it six individual rooms basically and they share a conference room in a waiting room so when I'm envisioning is to separate that into three office offices to like to Rome offices within that existing building so that's gonna be you know less traffic and I think the upstairs would probably be like their kists something like that to have people come in for an hour or something and leave and downstairs maybe some small office accountants lawyers you know some service something like that whatever is allowed under yeah you won't move up there whatever is allowed under the bylaw anyway in the end zone so it's not going to be seven offices so to speak and only three office suites plus the new office in a new building good to know thank you any other questions from the board regarding other issues that we talked about the last time madam chair just one thing architect just wants to clarify something about the plant thing in front of the park Christine well again I just want to say that we try to go very lightly in the renderings with how the vegetation looks so that we're not you know obscuring the way that the architecture looks but the what we've called out in the landscape plan is three Inc berry bushes in front of the parking the south side of the parking at the front that we were just discussing Inc berry isn't evergreen and it's a shrub that matures at five to eight feet so it's a little misleading the way it's rendered but we didn't want to hide the parking because we all know it's there yeah you had mentioned the propane tank that was one of the items that was hanging from the last time where it was going to be put I see we have a fire department says it's fine maybe you can just what it was in that yeah right okay great yeah we ran into an issue I was hoping to put her on the back of the building but the setback for placing the propane tank it has to be 10 feet from a building and 10 feet from an adjoining property line so what xx feet setback and behind the building there's your 20 feet so you can't put the tank anywhere I thought about the reason the fire department sent that last comment prior to this one I was thinking about maybe putting it on my adjoining property and given her an easement for that too it's that cop I'm not gonna work but this fits all the requirements and again it's just that little cover that sticks up and landscape around it it'll fit sounds good so at this point we Kris could we do the special permit with the board feel comfortable with moving ahead on the special permit we could make a motion and first I'll just open it up if that if that's a go out I still have to do public comment to see if anyone would want to speak on the special permit yeah and this is really a question for mr. Reedy or mr. wróblewski if the special permit were approved but the rest of the plan were not approved would they still go ahead with the new building that is allowed by the special permit would that fit into the old plan I wouldn't do it first we had the previous one to serve the residents yeah I think I think it makes sense to go forward to give mr. robust key the option of if this I think well here are some conversation later about where this next one is going but I think to have that be able to come down I think whether it's with this new proposed based upon what we here are some revision thereof or the original I think this is gonna come down either way and we also the Historical Commission has been out there and they've had two meeting with them and they are okay with you know rebuilding that section yeah yeah I want to ask go back to a something statement you made a moment ago about mr. Marshall not being able to vote it seems to me when we last took this up it was SPR 2020 - oh one and this is spr 2020 - oh five seems like this is a different SBR and so this is all the only hearing we've had in this SPR and I think you should be able to vote on this because it's the only one we've had on this actually the special permit is but I don't believe I stand I stand corrected I'm sorry Chris so I think mr. Marshall would be able to vote on the special permit application but not on this I plan review which you've already had a hearing on it's my opinion and that would of course be his decision you know pressure is a first day on the Planning Board are there any other questions or issues either on the special permit or on how we proceed tonight [Music] well then I'd propose a motion or on the special permit or just a special permit we could do that I just have to check with public comment nope whoops if if we're gonna move forward on this is there anyone here to speak on the special permit part of this public hearing on 462 Main Street I see no hands so Krista we have to go over anything or can we just have a motion for the special permit yeah you'd have to make a finding that it is not substantially more detrimental to the neighborhood to allow this to occur cannot be in the motion and then convene the motion so we would close the public hearing for the part of the special permit and extend accept that finding and then you can make a motion thank you so much okay so I'll move that that we consider this application for a special permit and that the it's not substantially d'etre more detrimental to the neighborhood or the appropriate language but that was the gist of it to permit the special permit going forward is there any more discussion questions comments at this time I see none so we'll take a vote all in favor of the special permit I see unanimous okay thank you thank you that's good is there anything outstanding on this right now like I I mean only that do we have out land so we don't have a current landscape plan you do have a current landscape sounds like it may need to be updated and mall so what I'm hearing is I'm not sure that I have the votes on parking so I mean I let up I guess we would request the continuation to the March 4th hearing and let us think about either providing more data and trying to convince some folks that there's enough or considering the affordable piece or looking to add more parking and see where that leads us you know if there's a way to do it I don't know that there is and we may come back and say this is what it is frankly take it or leave it or that's it I don't like to give ultimatums but that might just be what it turns out to be but at least let us go back and investigate and if if we can come back and make it work for everybody then great and if not then I think we're gonna have to have a conversation that sounds like a good option I would also love a few could submit the data you collected on the parking even if it's a photocopy of the data you took or something and then my man could organize into an Excel spreadsheet and then because I think it's useful for everything in the room just know the time in the place when you did that smart yeah and also if it could be per bedroom because you know it you emphasize when you're going through it you emphasize the empty spaces and that's less important than how many bedrooms and how many cars and you can probably feel some of that out Janet so um it's just also gonna offer the idea of sort of overflow parking maybe with the VFW across the street I know that involves a special permit but if that was the commitment and you thought that that could work out by talking to them informally just so would you mean it and maybe some other business because there's a lot of businesses along there that probably have empty parking so that I was just gonna add you could look at that again and you also mentioned possible because you're an experienced landlord you obviously care you want to run a good business that's obvious and you don't want to cause a problem and if there was a problem that evolved in your parking situation you would find ways to better fix it right I read in your plan that you say that you would you know if it came to that you would offer rent discounts to people who only had one car or no car you know that could also you could look at that a little harder and actually have that as a starter for some of your sites I'm just saying just you know to consider and maybe you will have some of your apartments that a few of them that don't have parking or only have one or what I'm just saying you know look a little harder there's been some other developments around that we're it's this trying to find that sweet spot I see Michael another thing you might think about they quoted the master plan which I appreciate one of the principles of the master plan relative to affordable housing is that incentives be found that the Planning Board the town council we find incentives to create affordable housing possibly the with the going way down on the parking requirement is an incentive and if it were thought about in that way and if you came up with one or two affordable units that might be convincing to the board might be to me anyway Janet so just just going up the street like the red barn the Amtrak station there's a lot of you know businesses that at night that parking lot is almost empty so there's spaces and you know the transportation plan talks about shared parking I know it's a little tricky getting a special permit but that might be something we should look at on the zoning subcommittee about loosening those requirements so they're a little easier for people to do shared parking can be a good thing any other suggestions for them to look at Chris I just wanted to make sure that everybody knows that as Janet said miss ruyan said it is a requirement to change the permit for the property to which the parking goals so if it were to go to mr. rubber less Keys property on High Street he would have to change his prop his permit for that property for where to go to the you know area near the train station that permit would have to change so there are kind of you know cascading consequences for that type of arrangement right thank you for reminding us of that so if we continue this SPR xix looks bananas for us so it would be the next meeting there's some space would that be agreeable to you I think is that oh good lord is that March 4th 4th Wow okay so what else I don't remember what we have on the 4th I know mr. Morris coming yes Chris so what I remember that you have on the 4th is Rob Mora is coming changed we're changing him from the 19th of February because it's too too overloaded and also you have Jeff and Jack Brown coming about a driveway on Bay Road and I think but oh that and that's Bucky Sparkle that's right and I think that's it so far Bucky Sparkle is an engineer yeah he's been here before and depending on what happens with Amherst Hills how much we can get done between now and the 19th perhaps that one will go on the 4th as well I'm not sure but anyway we know we're having Rob Moore on yeah and the Browns to come about their Drive so is there time could we set them first at that point it's 7:05 on March 4th will continue this hearing till then no chair do we want to have any public comment on yes is anyone here to speak on the SPR oh great come on out they'll make room for you no no that's we want you to come up sit down and Tom purse her mics on is that seat you're like the flicker and though yeah I think I'd just say you're at state your name and just your address for the minute state garble and welcome hi I'm Katie right my husband and I own five thirteen and 531 Main Street across the street so we've just had an interest in this development and certainly you know we're have an eye on parking but I think even more important than parking it's just congestion in general I know the the ideas in fill of available in area in the you know in the center of Amherst but we already mentioned a lot of times especially certain times of the year the PTA is overloaded and people are you know missing classes and late to work and things because the bus service is not available the school if you've ever tried to actually drive anywhere near the high school in the morning it's kind of a nightmare and you know so this that might be a bigger consideration but is it feasible to contact the PTA and ask them to add another bus to that anyone can always that's a great idea and the truth is they do track the numbers yeah very closely and demand means the more usage thing right so I mean it's been that way for years I've lived there but other problems they balance money of course but no everyone right right you know and right to your the politicians and your your local representatives and all that because the more voices the more buses right so that would just well in my conversation with Alex Forrest they are aware this particular room in particular starts at old belchertown Road out by the old landfill gets you know gatehouse Road Colonial Village so early and 31 yeah 31 and the 30 and that looks like a 34 there's two but you know even you know like that time my tenant couldn't get on a bus you know it goes up and stops here at Churchill Street it picks up additional people goes through the center of town then the UMass and stops of through UMass and puffed and village made he is aware of that route is overloaded and he's gonna they're working on you know adding the tandem buses or something like that they got more capacity so they are very aware of it and they want to work on that so it is an active work in progress so to speak at rush hour how many of you how often is a bus stop there at rush hour fifteen minutes thirty is pretty good at that dad I mentioned the 202 people I got on on Wednesdays in September of nineteen sixty percent of one were before noon time and fifty percent of that was before 10:00 a.m. so they're going to try to you know overload the route so to speak and get more capacity to accommodate everybody to get them to UMass or wherever they're going so they are working on it good I can put those calls and emails in thank you for would you mind stating your last name again thank you thanks alright so at this point will I do I need a motion to continue the so to somebody yeah moved to continue a meeting till March 5th March 4th that 705 second that's someone anyone okay a discussion No all in favor unanimous great alright yes thank you very much thank you thank you very much okay I would like to take a little break if that's all right everyone a five-minute break just so we are going to continue we will move to item four Master Plan Update this actually ties in a lot to the Planning and Zoning item five the zoning subcommittee report [Music] Chris maybe it's appropriate if you start and then maybe Maria you can give a little summary of what happened at the zoning subcommittee and reference documents that we have start by saying that you will have two packets you received one packet in the mail and then you received another packet on your desk and most of what you received on your desk has to do with the master plan update and the agenda says revised February 3rd and we revised it because we dropped an item if I can go through the packet and tell you what's in here and then we can start to discuss it so I guess the first two pages don't have to do with master plan but they there is a memo from Janet McGowan about conversation that she and I had with someone from Pioneer Valley no excuse me metropolitan Boston Planning Commission MAPC on master plan process there's a memo from michael burt whistle in response to the crc memo and it talks about the difference between the words approve and adopt and then make some conclusions at the end there's a memo also from michael burt whistle on the master plan process in which he sort of whittles down the process that was described in the sea see memo there is a memo from well it's the same memo from Michael Burt whistle but it has red highlights from Janet McGowan who made responses to Michael's comments then there's a document that is it looks a little bit like a diagram for a computer how computer works but anyway because yes instead of CPU it's got MP u but anyway it describes how our website could work to improve the communication with the Planning Board and others and planning staff during the master plan update process and that's what this is all about this is about updating the master plan I didn't give a good introduction but we've been talking about updating the master plan the community Resources Committee has proposed a process for updating the master plan and now the Planning Board is trying to refine that process and come up with something that will really work for the Planning Board there is a document in here from that was drafted by Christine Grahame Owen at the top it says draft 2010 master plan update process so this has been through a couple of iterations and last night at the zoning subcommittee decisions were made about how the process might work better and mrs. Graham Owen adapted that document based on what she heard last night yeah there is a schedule look there's an Excel spreadsheet in here that makes a proposition about how the Planning Board can manage all of the things that it's working on so the Planning Board is working on master plan updates flood insurance Maps zoning bylaw rewrite they're going to have something to say about the 132 Northampton probably had two different points during the next six months reviewing South University Drive probably reviewing an application from Amherst media Kendrick Clark playground and a number of other things so this is really an attempt to get a handle on how all these things can be balanced without you know feeling really overwhelmed and then there's I think the last thing in the packet is a chart prepared by Maria Chao and that chart seeks to make it more simple to describe how this master plan process will work so I think it would probably be a good idea if each person described his or her own document and then we could have a discussion about it so I don't know miss gray Mellon and where would you like to start do you want to start with I think Maria's flow chart is probably just the easiest way to get everyone on the page of just what's gonna happen because we've heard we heard from CRC and how they're trying to get their memo and flow chart together so we're somewhat familiar with that we heard from CSU based on the memo we got yeah facts but this is Maria we'll get it but a lot of that oh you know you don't get into their details but it is mentioned on this flow chart I just want to make sure we hadn't had another communication from the United State that I have not seen the CRC memo so whenever you are talking about that I am ignorant of that document it has had a few revisions and I do think this week do like final draft memo is coming out along with a flow chart which they have not had to this point so you'll get it fresh hopefully tomorrow but we can also send you the previous one but don't study that one is hard ok Maria sure so I can run through this flow chart and again this was sort of born from the feedback we're getting about the confusion first with you know the process that was presented from CRC and then we don't have a process let's make a process and so last night I'm just gonna combine this with the zoning subcommittee report real quick and that all I'm gonna say about that is that it was a really great meeting we had a lot of differing opinions different perspectives and we ended up with a really great end result I think that could only come from that dynamic and I really like that aspect of the zoning subcommittee meetings where it really feels more like a work session and if we can bring more of that to the planning board during the semester plan update process that would be really fantastic so anyway so this flow chart basically starts mmm the idea is that I'm trying to show what we have to do and what we have to do based on town charter so that it's not that these things are pulled out of the air we actually hmm so starting January 15th Planning Board agreed to the master plan update and then the next step we think is really just having Chris talk to the planning staff the town staff the various people are just taking a chapter and just going for it and taking a first stab at it and this yellow arrow is sort of the part that Christine Grahame oh and we'll go through and her memo about the back and forth the working section sessions the actual meet of the work the the place where all of the great stuff is gonna happen so assuming that goes back and forth back and forth finally we get to the planning department just compiles all of the about nine months worth of work into a draft it goes to the planning board and we vote to approve the final draft of this master plan update and if it's a yes you can see where it goes if it's a no we go back to just working on it some more and ideally the nine months incorporates that sort of cyclical sort of work so say it's yes we go we present it to the CRC and at this point they have 45 days and they're getting feedback from Town Council and the hope is that this is definitely not the first time Town Council seen it they've seen it when we were in that sort of yellow zone where do we go back and forth we also have had a lot of comment in that yellow zone so it's it's ideally what the this green blue path is it's almost administrative after the CRC such that we should not be going back and forth and through many iterations at this point once the CRC has it that's what the hope of this process is going to bring after the CRC has it we the Planning Board review the feedback and we work with again with the Planning Department on the actual revisions and then if it all looks good the Planning Board votes to approve and by math state law that Planning Board approves this Master Plan Update it is our master plan and Christine will go into this idea of this MPIC that was part of the original master plan the 2010 master plan is this committee that should have been formed but never was and last night we had a great discussion about various types of subcommittees and this one sounded like the perfect that especially after the sole update process and so this last bar at the bottom is based on how the town charter was written and so the town manager gets this semester plan update Town Council per the Charter has a hold of public hearing and an endo vote to adopt the master plan and the idea here is also that this public hearing is not the first and only opportunity that the public can give comment then that sort of earlier yellow area that Christine will go through there's so many opportunities for the public to have their voices heard this this public hearing is just sort of because of the way the town charter was written it's just there so so that's the gist of this flowchart it's just trying to show we were don't want to make this a round and round iterative process we want to make sure we get a lot of good work a lot of good input from all the right people early on so that by the time it goes to CRC and Town Council it's almost just sort of moving through a series of steps so yeah that's basically the flowcharts thank you for that overview I just want to say if we pull up the memo I know some of you have seen what was yesterday a few things are different I just moved a few paragraphs around and what we came out of zoning subcommittees sort of simplifying the process that has all been implemented in this to the memo the memo for the proposed process I won't get into really the first page that's more of just about how how a MPIC master plan implementation committee well it doesn't exist right now and that was part of the master plan when you update it so we're still going to update it but part of the key is and this was talked about a lot yesterday is different words float around but keeping this as simple as possible doing a you know an update light and part of this is if you go to page two and there's a list reasons for keeping the update simple and limiting to necessary and obvious those are a bunch of reasons why we're doing this and it's everything from this is our first attempt you know 2010 was the first master plan that Amherst's created and this will be their first update attempt and then you know it's about time and workload and resources yet it needs to be done because it is part of our charge and you know Town Council and other committees are eager for it because so much is sort of based off off the master plan but the thing to remember is the basic blueprint or framework of the master plan is not going to change so we talked a lot about wanting to keep CRC and Town Council updated but really even more head of them is we want as much public input and ways for the public to give feedback in this even if it is a simple or light update you know a lot of people will be bringing up comments or have concerns about more complex issues that won't be addressed now but all of this will be collected very formally and it will be presented to the master plan implementation committee I'll call the MP I see it will be helpful for them it will be helpful for the next update if there's another update in five years and it will be helpful for the creation of the 2030 master plan effort that could start I mean it could be six years now but maybe it will be determined not to do another update and instead go right for start working on the master plan but either way we will have this group that will be collecting data so if we just go to the page if we go to page four like trying to save us time here I just want to point out what I created is planning to go I said planning board has set goals on completing this MPU master plan update and you know this is what I came up with I hope you agree you know this is a lot to digest and you all have homework so when we come back you know if there's you know a goal that I forgot or we want to add to these but this is what I'm hoping will keep us focused I want this to be a win for the planning board it's just kind of our baby and it's our opportunity to shine and goodness know sometimes we need some good publicity so as I wrote this I was listening to all of the comments and the memos that were sent I listened to town staff and I'm really I'm striving for balance I'm it's doable I don't want to over stretch us and I don't want to bite off too much and yet I don't want to not have it quality work so you know take note of those goals and and think about them so if you just flip back to page three briefly the like where there's a list towards the bottom of the page public outreach and participation is a required and vital part of this mpu this will be addressed in numerous ways and I mention a website and then of course all the updates and committee other committees and public feedback and potential meetings and forums and all that good stuff which then takes you to my highly professional little scribble here about our proposed website I did talk to the IT marketing coordinator director Brianna whether this was possible and she said it was this is we can develop a beta and get this up and running she says it's pretty simple we just have to define our database feels I can bring that here or maybe is a working group the zoning subcommittee could just play with the beta - and help define the database fields because I do think if we if this works this will be very helpful for our future zoning bylaw changes and kind of doing the same process we can you know use it on this and tweak it to use it in the future and then the last thing I'm trying to talk fast here is the evolving schedule so this has gone through a few changes because of course as Chris Bester can tell us you know give it ten minutes and and this probably changes again but what I was trying to show is building in the top line where sections section or two or sometimes I see it as a new section and maybe one that's already you know gotten comments from us coming back again just in the next six months different dates that we could sort of make that there's like a solid like hour that we talk about and review this and I think as it evolves you know this is not a it's a fluid system it's a guideline and you know I think we'll learn a lot we sort of work through the process but it also I thought this would be helpful just adding the other projects and I'm gonna try to keep keep this fairly updated because it just gives us perspective on what we're working on and and things that are coming up and and all that so at this point I'll just ask does anyone have I think if you read the memo and look at the flow chart you know it will make a lot of sense but of course if there's questions you know make a note of it and we'll talk about it the next time probably not on the 19th but the fourth can I go with Chris versus Chris and then like I just wanted to note that this chart really just includes the more high profile larger projects that the planning board is gonna be working on of course the planning board will continue to work on all the smaller applications that you have but I don't see any reason to have these on the schedule I was trying the one-hit wonders I was more trying to focus on things that are especially sometimes go to two or more meetings or take a significant part of one night but yeah but if you want to add to it you can Michael first of all I think this is a really excellent work all this stuff Thank You Christine and Maria a week or so ago Christine Rusch group asked us to suggest dates when we might not be available over the summer and I think if those were on this chart that would be helpful might be helpful to you guys in plans hugely yes so I'll reiterate it again especially for Doug is you're sort of evaluating you have we have a list they're sort of on here - we have a list of all the planning board dates is your determining your summer vacation if you're going to be away it just reminds Chris something we've never done this but can't people call in we've never done it but know as long as we have a quorum here people can call in and participate yeah and various boards and committees are figuring out how to do that yeah so it can be by Skype it can be by phone it can be by various mechanisms because I would be willing if you all I thought the master plan is one of those issues that we could kind of try that on I think with SPRs and special permits it would be a little bit harder yeah but something like this the other part I was gonna say is if people are away they can still get the section and do write up and make their Corrections feedback whatever and send it in to us so because it's just last summer a lot of people's vacations didn't overlap so we missed a lot of meetings and it made a pretty intense fall so we're trying to avoid that a little bit this year so if people know when they're gonna go away this summer or even are sort of like thinking send it to Chris and then we'll try to update it on this and then if you're a maybe by seeing this maybe it will make you be like oh I could slide it that week or whatever or I also plead if you could try to avoid you know planning board meetings if you can yeah great idea and Chris how would we go about finding out like doing a test drive like for someone calling in and trying to do something okay or we could know we could get someone to call and I was thinking have you but like have someone call in and like pretend to be and we go just we wouldn't do this test during a real planning board meeting but do you know any commitment during this I have seen I have heard of committees and boards doing it I just am not sure which ones so I can explore that and I'll find out about you and it requires a person who's okay so maybe you can talk to yes and people have to ask permission from the chair or tell the chair that they're gonna do this and sort of get permission from the chair to go ahead with it so okay good pursue that any other questions or issues right now so I think if one of the seven of us aren't here for a master-planned discussion I don't think that will be a problematic particularly if we have a chance to comment in writing before or leave it after because even after we discuss it here that'll still be open for public comment or questions if through the website absolutely I agree I mean part of it last summer was even getting a quorum that's where we couldn't get before so that's a good idea we'll start yes so you're hoping we stagger rather than we all take the same week off and don't mean we would rather have well it depends that's why we have to see in some ways if it's only like one or two meetings it's better to stack everybody the same and miss it the worst is when everybody ends up and it's too many that's what happened and we couldn't hit the floor so it's sort of a balancing act so we'll see what people have planned I know there's at least one member who does take some time off go somewhere else sorry so anyway so we'll just see how bad it is hopefully you know maybe it's not as bad this year but we also want the master plan update to keep you know moving forward through this summer Janet so do you want Michael to talk about his memo next door if he wants - sure I don't have a lot to say don't have a lot to say about it I wrote it three weeks ago about two weeks ago and it's sort of gone past things at this point but basically it was in response I can't even find it now it was in response to it wasn't it was in response to this the CRC's letter how they wanted to work things and I thought that was too complicated and I tried to propose something that was less complicated and would do the job because less complicated better and that was that was this memo and then it basically called for of the profs the Planning Board through a point a subcommittee which we are able to do given I'd love to check that our our bylaw our rules and regulations we can point committees and it's not a list they don't have to be just members of the Planning Board they can be anybody apparently because it doesn't specify that they have to be members of the Planning Board in an event we would have a subcommittee of the Planning Board charged with implementing implementing this revision this late version of the master plan and then work with it work with staff essentially the same way that the flowchart that we were just talking about does but then after working with with the with staff then bringing it as a full thing to the Planning Board keeping the Planning Board in the loop though pretty much the way the Planning Board in this iteration tries to keep the CRC and the council in the loop I think now that we're talking about the planning having miss breast are bringing revisions directly to the Planning Board for discussions on this nine-month chart that we've been looking at I think that's a much more satisfactory and simpler although it may be complex in terms of the individual comments around the board on those days but I think that'll be a simpler way to do it particularly if we can as Maria said a minute ago treat these sessions more like working sessions and less like formal presentations the microphone thing is difficult and if we could figure out a way to have all the microphones on at the same time that might be helpful but I don't want you all talk that's the problem Kristy and I know you don't and that's all I'm suggesting that we do that in any event I think if we can have if we can have a a cordial and a busy working session around the table with people in the audience because that's one of the things we want yeah this is have feedback in that of that kind and input not feedback just but input and I think that will be a much more satisfactory process than the one I had originally proposed so having said that I kind of basically withdraw my original proposal Thank You Janet I assume so um you know after the meeting like at the zoning subcommittee meeting we were really digging into some stuff and so I was very I felt really strongly the zoning subcommittee wasn't the place for the master plan planning kind of update to take place and that we should just focus on zoning which is complicated enough and we have a lot on our plate I really like the idea of the starting the master plan implementation committee because you're right that when you look at the implementation chapter you know that's the first thing they say you should do and then when you look at the like you know we the town has done a lot of the implement implementing but a lot of really important things didn't get done or it makes sense you need a committee to kind of really focus on that and so that was very psyched about that for me the big issue is like what's the depth of the master plan update and so if it's a master plan light I think that this proposal of you know just working with the Planning Department and the Planning Board makes sense if it's going to go deeper and without revising it and doing a whole new one that was the phone call with Ralph Wilmer of the MAPC and so I don't know if people wouldn't just sit and read you know skip everything in the beginning of this memo and just read the update steps which is really like a page a page of stuff but the idea was to set up a steering committee of three planning board members like Michael suggested I thought we should everybody should grab three chapters they have a background in work with the planning department on that and the public and you know people from attack and all the different boards you know be in charge of that and then come to the Planning Board with some chapters as they're done so if you could just read that what Rob Ralph Wilmer suggested I'll just be quiet for a minute you're suggesting that that's for the deeper dive I think it's good to look at because I think we even if you're doing master penlight we might start trading or we might get deeper than we hope but I just I just think it's worth looking at so so I'm completely fine if we're gonna do a light not doing the steering committee if we're gonna do a more thorough update which could have benefits I think we should I would follow the Willmar route and so that would be my suggestion so but I really I also really think the priority for me would be forming the master plan implementation committee and just you know pulling us together otherwise my fear is that we'll have this 20 year master plan that we really haven't updated and we didn't really ever dig in and implement it in a more coherent way and as we implement it you know you'll start seeing what has to be changed and what's working what's not and having some of you know assessments and things like that so I'm in agreement with the importance of the the master plan implementation committee on the on Maria's flowchart you see that that down toward the bottom it says formation of master planning implementation committee and when I saw that that was news from the chart that we saw yesterday that wasn't on the yesterday's chart my and I think it's important that we have that at some point we do that and I'm wondering whether or not and this is really a wonder and not a statement if if we ought not to start the EM pick to start the to start the acronym right away that as soon as the proposals that end up in the proverbial basket for next time start arriving that the empik whoever or whatever that has to be turns out to be can begin working on those things and that it be a kind of rolling process and that there's no particular date by which a document has to be done because there already is a very important and school document which exists on the on the website and it's an it's an appendix to the master plan and it's the implementation it's Appendix A implementation matrix I don't have any of you've seen it but it's it's a list of all the specific recommendations in the master plan will columns of that says responsible entities and another column that says time frame and I've been working through through this trying to decide who the responsible entity for one per to each particular event or is sorry each particular goal and those are sometimes pretty easy to figure out and sometimes you wonder and sometimes they're five or six different entities that are involved in a particular idea and then the timeframe of course is another matter entirely is this something that can be done in six months or is this a ten year time frame and they're they're all there but going through that implementation matrix is a really interesting trip through them through the master plan itself and it it can give the empik a really good place to start and organa a way to organize its work by going through that and saying okay who's responsible for this idea the planning board is okay well how do we do it how does the planning board do it or Town Council's responsible how do we get to Town Council's and remind them that this is their responsibility that seems to me the goal of the of the master plan implementation committee to figure out how to implement this and figure out more importantly who's responsible for implementing it and to sort of prod those people brah the department is in town or the board in town or whoever is in town that needs to be working on that maybe some non town entities like the bid are involved in this and I think some of the bid is involved with us in some cases we need to prod them so I suggest that maybe we ought to start the EM pick sooner rather than later and I also suggest that the Planning Board take the bull by the horns and appoint it I understand that the previous one was appointed by the Select board when we had a select board and that that for various reasons never quite got off the ground and that maybe miss kau mischaracterization of what happened but I wasn't involved with anything town governor at that time so I didn't have any idea about it but Christine you correct me if I'm over if I'm miss stating that the way that began but in any event is that right so the select board was asked to create the empik and they did actually create it but I think there was a lag in the timeframe in which they did that and then by the time they finally did create it planning board members were kind of tired of talking about the master plan so no one volunteered to be on the impact and so it sort of faded away into memory well maybe that's even more reason to start it now because if we wait until after we're finished with this with the review the light review we may all be tired of it then - all over again Chris so I just wanted to note that if we were to dive into the matrix right now there may be things there that have already been done or things that we feel like we don't really want to do anymore so I think part of the update is to decide are those things still viable and do we still want to do them and so to have a group that's kind of launching into making you know taking action steps to make those things happen when we don't actually know if we want to do it or not may be premature so I'm just saying that putting the empik at the end of the process makes sense to me because then you actually have things that you know you want to do maybe the empik can be could begin working on say you know section 4 after you have made your or go through and say this has been done this hasn't been done this we need to work on and do they'll do the Edit the light edit that you're talking about having and then as part of that you'll probably mark two or three things for future consideration at least as I understand what your process is going to be and at that point it comes to the Planning Board and we sign off on the changes that you've made and accept the fact that there are things that we're going to be working on later on but at that point the empik can start working on those things that are later on which wouldn't get in the way I think of what you're talking about is your basic work does that make sense it does I'm I'm thinking about how this is going to be managed and if we have a master plan update process going on and also an impact process and we're also going to have zoning bylaw rewrite and then we also have these other things that we're working on are we taking on more than we can handle I think that Michael what you're saying up the impact makes perfect sense but it is going to be a moving target for awhile and we want a lot of public input and the great thing about this website is we can actually tally it and see what items keep coming up the most and that might help drive the priorities for this FN group as far as what the tackle first or what to put more interest or I mean it's re consultants or money or time or staff so I think this process this update is actually gonna be very revealing for the impacts sort of next steps so I think for me it too early like Chris said is a little little too early just as far as being effective you know with their time and I guess I didn't know that can impact people who are not on the planning board is that right yeah it can be yeah okay well there's there's no statutory concern it's not mentioned anywhere in the statute great because I think we will be exhausted and it'd be great to get fresh eyes yes but I think we should own it I think we should it should be it should be a committee of the Planning Board I don't know Chris you need to check on that on our power of subcommittees it was my understanding that we can only have our own member on the subcommittee and if you have other people then it has to like be treated like all the other committees and you have to have the whole like of the form and be appointed by the town manager and charges and terms yeah so it is a more complicated issue and so I'm just gonna say yeah but there's a bigger thing that trumps that the actual forming of a committee it's part of Open Meeting Law which Chris you can check on that with the Town Manager and stuff but it's because I've been on other committees where the same thing has come up and I remember in the formation of the TAC the whole thing we were supposed to have a parking subcommittee and it got killed because of this whatever chris is gonna go find out there were reasons and complications but I'm just speaking as the chair I do worry about having too many pots on the stove at the same time you know the empik you know I'm hoping I have enough energy at the end of this that I want to be involved in that but I start to worry doing that right now along with updating like I said I want that to be done well and be a win and we have zoning subcommittee that's will have its work to and then to have third it just starts I feel it's a little cart before the horse because back to the public participation how I'm looking at this Chris had talked about a forum we're talking about websites we're talking about collecting all the comments as we move through the process and then great you have all these comments and then you have to sort them and prioritize them and hopefully there'll be areas that are shown that need to be addressed I just think it's too much it at least can we table this and get this process rolling and then see how we feel in a couple of months well like I said it was just a suggestion and yeah I'm not I'm not making a motion to that effect I just want to underline the importance of the empik that it's something that we really have to get al agree and I think it's very important that it be creature of the planning board somehow I don't know whether it means we're it's or whether we can or whether we can appoint other people I don't know how that could work it would be ideal that you look into what our options are in the power of subcommittee and what limitations there are with that and then if there was actually and just check what again was the original idea of because there was summary you know the Select board created the charge and created the committee so do you have that much that would be really helpful thank you and so we'll continue that Janet you have something to add I also wanna reiterate that we shouldn't spend eleven years waiting to implement them the Mon PEC and so if we wait another year and I hope this process is much faster if it's going to be a lighter process I would wonderful Michael if you could yeah in my endless search for information maybe talked to Roth Wilmer or somebody about like what do other towns do with implementing committees like you know I think it'd be great if it was just a planning board committee and we had a Board of Advisors that we went when we're talking about transportation we just you know call somebody up and bring them in for a talk I dread the idea of getting hooked into the town manager or the town council selection process and so I think you know we have a zoning subcommittee that does that and maybe we can do a mo pick that does that with some advisors and make it sort of easy and not crazy but can we get more information about what that would be and involved and bring bring it back to discussion that'd be okay great David I think that this material is great and I'm looking forward to starting it I'm curious in about a month's time according to what's the first step is this best rip snip is on me I'm supposed to take one chapter and go through it and try to update it as much as I can I have made a start on I think the first three three chapters I've got a list of things that I would put into them and some things that I would take out and things that I would emphasize what I'm envisioning is that there would be some sort of introductory paragraph that sort of describes in general how things have changed with regard to the particular topic and then I would go through each I think they're called strategies each strategy and look at it and see if it is something that we've already accomplished because many of them are or something that we've partially accomplished and we could comment on that or something that we haven't done anything about it all and evaluate whether we really want to keep this on our list of things that we want to do and then perhaps at the end have some kind of concluding paragraph or pages about where do we go from here so that's kind of what I'm envisioning is there a way when you bring that back twist like half the pages the original language and the other half of the page is the changes we can do both ways you can yeah because the markup stuff is kind of okay but page after page after it kind of does something to my mind it's a word thing you can do both well thanks Chris and I hope that you'll reach out to whoever you need to hear for whatever assistance that you to facilitate it and not swamp you so one of the things I went to this to the Searcy meeting on the chart one of the how we work is maybe the easy part cuz we can talk amongst ourselves but on the on the chart when it goes to the C or C in the memo from the CRC it was 45 days or more if the Town Council grants it and so I wonder people could focus on the rest of the piece because you know my fear is that it'll be 45 days and then I'll be extended and then it goes to the Town Council and people will start digesting a hundred page plan and I could just with Mandy Jo today she said forty five forty five is good okay so I just want to you know I have kind of concerns for that but at some point we just can't control everything and people so if it's okay I'm gonna move on to item seven planning and zoning zoning subcommittee report which do you have more okay well count that is done item six old business a we have a decision signing fun fun unfortunately I didn't finish the decision I was hoping to have miss finger-pointing hoping to have mr. Griffin's decision ready for tonight but I don't have it ready so um I'm hoping it will be ready for the February of 19th great more cider gets the cannabis growing that's right yep there are two there are so many parts to it and I want to get it right and yep get it right and sorry we're not sad all right item seven new business we already covered that unless there is something else that has not been okay why did I know that yep UMass is going to launch into a project to dredge their pond so I have a report about that I only have one copy but if anybody wants to borrow it and read it or come into my office and read it you're welcome to do that it's it's a big deal they have like three feet of silt at the bottom of the pond that they need to excavate and there they've lost their storm water retention capacity as a result of that and you know the water quality is affected and everything so anyway if you want to read it I've got it and I'm willing to lend it out good times will all be lining up are we good are we gonna be discussing it here no they're required to send this to us but we're not required to discuss it item 8 for May and our so do house before May we have one for West Street it's at the intersection of West Street and Shea's Street so West Street is 116 going south it's just as Shea street peels off to the east there's a house owned by a former Reverend she used to be the the Reverend of the First Congregational Church Donais copper is her name and she and her husband owned this property and it's a really big property and there's a house on it they don't live there anymore and they would like to peel off a property to sell for someone to do something with so will will show you the location we have a location map and then one of us will bring this around and show you what they're planning to do I will pass around the location map and you'll see where this property is located it's really between the what River is that it's probably the port river port River down there yep so it's between the fort River and route 116 [Applause] [Music] it's theirs I sort of remember the metal guardrails so next time you go you know it is it goes deep way down so this is the part they want to take off and sell right yep they won't and I like this the inhabitants of the time it sounds kind of big back there no this this piece right here they want to carve off and this is the neighbor I know much larger I think like I was saying this is a drop-off here there's a guardrail [Music] look at all this master square feet see this 160 it's probably a topography issue does it really drop but can they get to building circles I don't know Christopher no I'm sorry they they may my guess is that they're gonna sell both the Lots that lot with the house on it and the other lot and then whoever buys the other lot will determine what can be done with that lot and I think it is possible to subdivide it to make friend more frontage Lots possibly some flag Lots but that's not something that they want to get involved in at this time look straight forward to me everybody nice play nice okay so now is that it for an RS okay we'll go to item 9 upcoming zba applications him do you know of any upcoming cba applications ten upcoming SPPs PRS so the one I know about is this one that is on Bay Road it's a property that is owned by Jeff Brown and his son Jack and it's up the hilt getting towards the mountains they owned properties that kind of climb up the hill and they want to create one lot way in the back and in order to do that they have to extend an existing common driveway so the zoning bylaw talks about what you're allowed to do with the length of a common driveway and the steepness of a common driveway and if you want to deviate from that then you have to come and get a special permit from the Planning Board so you'll be seeing this on March 4th and we'll probably want to a site visit unless it's very snowing or something like that so I'll be in touch with you about that is that property come to us before that property has come to you as an A&R and it's gone to the to the CBA I think the CBA has granted a special permit for flag Lots to be created there to be built on but in order for them to actually be built on you have to give the special permit for the driveway modifications thank you any others there are always things out there in the wings but nothing that's been submitted great we'll move on to Planning Board committee liaison reports Jack's not here so I'll skip that one Michael did any of yours meet yeah Community Preservation that committee is in the in the end stages of its deliberations about the proposals for this year we are hard we have a meeting tomorrow which probably will finish up the of the process and I was just gonna ask at the same time Design Review Board did they mean designer d'hubert is not bad did that Commission yes and it was an amazing meeting it was great and there were two two things that where I thought relevant for the Planning Board in my mind one is that there there was a presentation about pollinators butterflies and birds encouraging among others and that solar farms and are actually are often inviting site for pollinators especially since there's a lot of space within the solar farms that are kind of just allowed to grow and that it's it occurred to me during the meeting that a possible condition on future solar farms is to encourage pollinate develop and then there are standards and societies and cool and the second thing that seemed relevant there was a presentation about trying about the ebb and flow of community gardens in Amherst and now we're in an ebb period and there are fewer than there had been previously but one of the things that was suggested was when considering the development of new residential space that the green areas potentially could be resident garden plots if there are and that that's something that were you might want to encourage in future mmm applications excellent thank you and zone except company we're done so we'll move to item 12 report of the chair I just want to say welcome Doug Marshall thank you for joining us sorry this first storm was kind of long but we're really glad you're here and reach out to any of us if you have any questions and concerns or want to like find something that we may or may not know probably up to three of us but report of staff I might have no report yeah yeah no okay so do I hear a motion for adjournment second someone awake okay all in favor great done thank you

brought to you by music matters with daryl craig harris and music tribes unite katy daryl how you doing today i'm so good thank you for having me i love your background it's very christmassy it looks awesome it's like santa claus threw up behind me yeah i had to do i tell you i had to do a little bit of a reset because our uh we decided to have perfect day today evidently so that's all good got to tell you where i'm sitting i'm looking basically out my front yard so i've got these windows i can see and this time of year doing zooms i see the amazon guy pull up and or the ups guy about to deliver i'll be in the middle of one of these i'm like oh please don't ring the dollar bill no exactly oh thank god he left it you can go back and watch my zooms with other people and like there's like anxiety over my face where i'm like [Music] i know and i i do these live but you know you never you never know yeah you never know what's going to happen live so that's the best part exactly so um you have a very interesting career you've been on access tv now for how many years almost 20 years yeah goodness gracious i started with access tv back when it was called hd net in the words it was the world's first all-high definition tv network and that was around 2000 2001 um and so i've been with them since it was hd net and then it changed its name to access tv um and i you know i'm i'm like the cockroach of the network i i won't die and i also know where all the bodies are buried well there you go yeah drop security right exactly um so you you're actually a phoenix girl right you are you're on the radio at 15 years old tell me about that yes i started in phoenix doing a kids radio show after school back before like radio disney even existed basically it was the first kids radio station uh i did that and then i transitioned into working with um at the like the version of like kiss fm in phoenix at the time and became like the promo girl and then started producing the morning radio show and then those guys got fired and moved to texas and i followed them there and i became their their sidekick chick and got you know into the radio biz that's sort of i mean that's sort of with what you do not so much you're doing a different thing than i do but with what you do it's really traveling relocating is a big part of that right jobs become available i know you were in new york with mtv yeah i did mtv for a year during the uh 2000 presidential election it was like the whole rock the vote choose or lose campaign which was really really exciting uh to be a part of and kind of see the political landscape from a different point of view obviously mtv more music and leaning younger and so trying to get the kids out to vote and register so um yeah a lot of moving in the early days luckily i um i am now in los angeles and i've been here gosh almost 15 years and i feel like absolutely entitled now i will tell you this one of my shows before this one so before the top 10 revealed um on access tv i was doing a show called deadline and i would travel around going to do crazy adventures everywhere so each weekend i'd be somewhere new be like oh it's the uh tight walkers convention in las vegas gotta grab a southwest ticket and go try exactly yeah southwest is our friend right i love them i love them i know that's actually my favorite give a little shout out to southwest get some free tickets right yeah yeah exactly not a bad thing so you also work for tmz so tell me how is that experience that's kind of crazy and wild right yeah so tmz what's cool about this is i started when when they launched tmz on tv right it used to only be the website um and so i started with the tv show and um i did a lot of on-camera stuff for them um as well as i was the female voice-over so when they would toss through those crazy packages you know like all right and then those britney spears i was the female voice and then there was a male voice and so i did that for about two years holy moly i mean lifting up the skirt on tmz and seeing how that place works and it's gotta be a machine it gotta be nuts high energy it is super super professional and i me i mean i think there's a lot of people out there that think oh they're just like running out there with cameras and shooting stuff themselves and they're not fact checking i truly i will anything that comes out that says it's an exclusive in a story that is broke by tmz i know it is true because harvey levin is a lawyer and he doesn't want to get sued and he was so hardcore in that newsroom of he will not publish if this is not true so i think in the in the entirety of tmz like they've retracted something like only two or three stories in their history yeah that's a fun show it's easy to like and i like i see those reporters that they use i'm like oh my god those guys they must be like they must be sitting by their phones 24 hours a day now that is the downside there's not a lot of sleep involved if you work at tmz right yeah so um so the show you actually had a show we were just talking about it because i actually did the show with you with our garth guy thing but yeah the world's greatest tribute bands and that was on for eight seasons right it was quite a long time yeah the world's greatest tribute bands on access tv was on for about eight seasons i think we did like approximately 80 episodes i mean everyone from you know pink floyd led zeppelin uh garth brooks you know all these greats in the music biz have tribute bands and and i learned so much from this show because obviously going into it how it fell on my lap is i'd been doing the other show deadline you know the weird one that i was traveling around for and mark cuban is the owner of the network at the time and he said okay we're done with deadline um your new show is tribute bands and that was an email and i was like wait no i don't even understand what that means what does that mean and i had to understand what is a tribute band because i thought it was a cover band and as you know it's not a cover band yeah you guys don't call it you yeah that's a naughty word in the business um which is so funny because i know so many people have emailed me um because there's that new show on e called um clash of the cover bands or something like that and it it drives me nuts because well first off it's a lot of my bands that i found so it's always giving me talent uh but they um a lot of them are not cover bands they're tribute bands and i and i just know that so many of the bands that probably are doing this show are just oh biting their tongue and so annoyed at the name of it because yeah actually i got called a couple times when that just started because i was actually in croatia the guy that our tim mcgraw guy goes can you do this show in l.a i'm like i wish i could but i'm not i'm not in the country but yeah those shows it's funny because those shows are actually really popular people are curious about that like what is that actually what is a tribute band and like in europe they don't even really understand except for elvis what that would actually be and that's what and that elvis is like it's like the easiest one to explain well cover me like you know tribute like a tribute band is you know think of elvis but you're like but you have to be like it's the good elvis because there's so much that goes along with like oh just like you know some guy bought a jumpsuit on ebay and comes in and goes home like no no no if you are a tribute to the beatles your paul mccartney plays his guitar left-handed like exactly yeah it's the real deal um so now you're doing and you're actually um executive producing and hosting um top 10 revealed which is a great show me and my wife watch that all the time love it it's so much fun how did that come about how did you develop that so um okay as all things and all my stories seem to keep relaying back to mark cuban but so mark cuban um that's not a bad thing no exactly he um as the owner of the network said hey you've done eight seasons of the world's greatest tribute bands i think i think we've covered all the good bands otherwise you're going to start going very specific to like ariana grande where you're like no offense but just not our demo right we're a classic rock station um and so he said we're going to cancel the world's greatest chibi bands it did great it's no you know no fault to anyone other than it's run its course what's your next idea again you're like no mark you it's asking me for my idea i feel like i'm a shark tank and it was actually my husband who he watches all you know nfl espn all that sports stuff and he loves the top 100 hail mary passes of all time the top 50 touchdowns of all time he's like your network has never done a countdown show you know i was like you're right dude we haven't so i pitched the top 10 revealed to mark cuban and we did the uh the pilot and here we are season four we're about 80 some odd episodes in we're already filming for our spring season and we'll be celebrating our 100th episode yeah that's such a fun show and i mean i love the guest and it's like people like people you would not expect right like stephen adler from gun roses all these it's a really fun mix of people yeah it is i mean listen like d snyder's on all the time so fashion box yeah you said steven adler we had matt sorum from guns n roses as well sean stockman from boys to men uh carney wilson and then we have like some of these just you know music geniuses um that aren't in bands but they're experts like matt pinfield or lindsay parker from yahoo so um it's it's a fun show and i love that like listen you can debate with your friends or argue with yourself when you're watching it like so you're kind of like oh i wonder what the next song is and you learn fun facts and it's easy like at the end of the day listen if you don't agree with it it's okay it's only rock and roll like yeah yeah and that's a show i mean that's a show that has legs forever right because you're not going to run out of topics you're right i did i thought okay i think we could do two seasons and now here we are about to hit 100 and i was like oh man i've got a list 30 deep of ideas that are just like ideas off the top of my head let alone if i actually like concentrated so yeah let's go for 200. exactly so you've done interviews with a ton of folks what what are some of the ones that are your favorites what are the ones that can't really stick out in your mind all right so i know that's a big question it is a big question so twofold so on the top ten revealed i really liked talking to paul stanley of kiss right icon uh but he's a um he's a hard nut to crack as i would say you know someone like d snyder sebastian bach they are sound bite machines they they get the game of tv of like talking a sound bite you know don't go on you know play nice and sandbox and even if you hate the song say well i know why other people like it so they're easy in the chair paul stanley made me work he didn't want to give up his opinion for free type of thing where you had to really ask the right question it's the new york thing right yeah but i i appreciate that i'm sure you know in media he's been misrepresented probably a lot and he just wants to protect his brand and and i was a stranger to him so he's like what's this girl gonna ask so i really enjoyed talking to him um for that reason because it was the challenge now i love again love me some d snyder because it isn't a challenge it is bantering with just a friend someone who just is going to you know make my day easy he's a believer right he's a believer in rock and roll he's he's he's all in um you know yeah he's such a character it feels like those guys have just been around forever right they have and i mean if you haven't followed d on twitter or sebastian i highly recommend it for everyone they're really fun they really engage they banter back and forth it's it's a fun read um what's your advice for young people that like to get into this business i mean do you have like interns that work on your show or what you know what's interesting so we do have like an intern or a pa that works with us um out of our denver office and i would never have imagined that that wasn't a real thing until the pandemic hit and you realize how you can virtually work with people you know i would have been like i can't work with someone out of state so i think um that brings up a lot of opportunities for people right now is that you know obviously if you're you are a good writer and you're good at doing research and you can work from anywhere and you know prove that that's that's really key right now is showing you know that you have the chops um to do the job virtually anywhere um yeah what about production too because being a producer that's a whole nother thing right the whole other level because you know out there tell it's easy well not easy but you just walk in you do your thing yeah production is like what do you mean the guy what do you mean the guy didn't show up yes i mean that is i mean when we do our shoot week right so when we do bring in all these guests to shoot i do what i call it i call it halloween it's not really hell i'm talking to rock stars but it's hell because it's five days five people a day each person you talk to for an hour but it ends up being an hour and 15 minutes the next person shows up 10 minutes later and it's another person in the chair and you're going through okay there's 12 episodes 10 songs per episode have an hour with 100 person they get to talk about 16 songs keeping all the papers and the moving parts of okay he talked about this and so so-and-so needs to talk about this we need to balance it out do we have enough females on this episode did we have a brainiac on this episode did we have a rock star in this episode so the moving pieces from the back side of production is pretty intense and it's a grueling day so think about it five five back to back interviews keeping eye contact and nodding now it's a listen so you have to listen to what they answered so you have the right follow-up question at the end of the day i'm like i've never been so tired from sitting in a chair listening to someone in my entire life and then you're like and i gotta wake up and do it again ah that's the production side but again is it really hell week you're talking to paul stanley katie i know yeah exactly that's the thing like when you get worn out you get tired like you know i wanted this but i got it so here i am you know exactly that's so exciting so season four um who are some of the big surprises we have coming up can you tell or oh yeah i have a great surprise oh this is an exclusive it's an exclusive okay i should call tmc wait so we just had um we're shooting like i said for the this spring season season five right and one of the new guests that we brought in is lisa loeb now she is gonna be new on season five but while she was we're still in the process of editing some of the episodes that are airing in season four and in season four our valentine's day episode is 90s breakup songs uh you know did it make our list i'm not going to tell you whether it made our list or not but i will tell you when i'm guessing sat down in the chair i said i need to ask you some questions about some of these 90 songs that we're in the middle of our edit with so you will see her even though she's not promoted on this season and will be highlighted as a coming in season five thing she really will make a sneak guest appearance in season four you know what's awesome about her she she's kept herself relevant by doing the tv commercials she that song those songs don't go away they're like ever ever like ever not only that you know she looks exactly how she did back then she's kept this look in this brand because it's beautiful and it's her she's like well i have my i'm not like a crazy hair person anyways but she looks great in person whatever she is doing her moisturizers are working right can i you should get the secret for me i know i'm like what is the secret i will smear peanut butter and eggs on my face if you're telling me that's what you're doing because you're doing it right exactly yeah that that you got to do what you got to do it's all good um so what do you um what would you give as far as advice to people are trying to produce too because that's a whole nother thing how did you what was that road for you yeah i think you know producing is a tricky thing because a lot of people want to do it but their brains aren't made for it you know it's just like listen i i will never i'm never going to be a guitar player i can't do it like my right hand or my left hand are stupid stupid little beings and they will never figure it out as much as i really do try or with the limited amount of time that i have to try okay um so yes everyone can put their mind to anything sure go to the space be and be a rock star but we have to be realistic with how much time you have to put in to hone that skill i have always been a crazy ocd keep lots of lists cross check check type of gal and that's what makes me a good producer and i think that's what makes a good producer are there people out there that are producers that aren't good at that sure are they going to be successful for a long time a couple of them the others are will fall to the wayside so i think if you want to produce i think you know really you know exercising that part of your brain and realizing like that you have to keep track of a lot of moving parts right um and that there are that you're juggling a lot of egos and attitudes it's people always have asked me oh you um you produce the show and you host it and i'm like yeah it's not that i think i'm i'm an exceptional host i'm a decent host i'm a great producer and i don't want to work with any other hosts because right they're a pain in my butt or having somebody else produce you right when you have to when you know when you know your vision you know what you want to do or yeah it's tricky it's that's so tricky i'm like a producer's worst nightmare when i come in and host things because like i start directing myself like looking around can you just let us i'm like uh but you can move that light and yeah that's that's the hat it's on right you can't take it off how can people find you online thanks for asking um so my social media is just my name katie daryl k-a-t-i-e d-a-r-y-l that's instagram that's twitter that's facebook that's my website just go to my website katiedarl.com and then you can click on all the icons to find the socials what's fun about my socials or maybe um exhausting is i do it all myself and i don't have that click on feature where like you post in one place and it just goes to all of them and it's the same repetitive info i do put fresh stuff specifically at facebook fresh stuff specifically at twitter there i think i think my instagram if i do post a photo on instagram it does go to facebook like that's the only crossover but um you know so it's very authentic which is kind of what you're saying yeah because a lot of people have publicist they don't really interact their withdrawals no you don't do this i can do this yeah but you know what too it's like you know then you're it's actually feels authentic what your your social does and that that's the thing one of the things i like about you is that you're

NrzT2QQWC48 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NrzT2QQWC48 | The Bhagavatam's relevance for a postmodern audience, The Monk's Podcast 146 with Kaustubha Prabhu | it is my great pleasure to be here with you yes thank you for joining the last time we had a very broad and insightful discussion on western outreach you know today i thought we could go deeper into a specific uh aspect of the western mind and your outreach say that now it seems that the western mind is significantly affected by post modernism so and then you are your wisdom on serious podcast has been quite successful where you are directly teaching the bhagavatam so we could discuss about presenting bhagavatam to the postmodern mind or in the postmodern world i thought we could discuss broadly that topic sure so maybe first we can start with what is post modernism that will help me to find it more clearly okay so you know it's uh one of the aspects of post-modernism is that it rejects all structures and definitions so in that sense it's very difficult to define but uh i i'll talk maybe i'll present in two three different ways one is that this is that modernity was characterized by rationality that we should be rational we should be using science as a tool scientific reason as a tool for understanding so pre-modernity was characterized by revelation that the defining epistemological source of knowledge was revelation whether the bible or the vedas or the quran or whatever else but in the post modern the idea is even both revelation and rationality are both considered to be basically instruments of power that that revelation is used by the religious people to hold power and rationality is used by those who can use it for maybe for gaining power over this you know this our idea is rational your idea is not so so their idea is that ultimately each individual is free to decide their own conception of reality so in one sense experience personal experience becomes the defining parameter for for deciding what is the reality so there is a concept of you know truth to the capital t and truth is a small tree that whether there is actually a actually a ultimate truth that is either not there or that is not knowable but each of us have our own truths it's the truth with the smallity my truth your truth so you could say i've heard people speak like that i've heard people speak like that yeah very subjective and experiential are based on based on one's own experience so that's one major aspect of post-modernism uh should i go on or would you like to reflect on this no no yeah once you lay it out for me and this will be helpful for me okay so another aspect is also that within the postmodern context people consider that any so it one means intellectual structures but even societal structures the whole idea is everything is seen as a means for gaining power so some people say that what marx talked about as power in terms of social dynamics that all that the history of humanity is a struggle between the powerful the powerless the haves and the have-nots so that is taken into all domains of life so it's like maybe the masculine males are trying to dominate the females one race is trying to dominate the other race so any societal structure it may be it is seen with suspicion and especially religious organizations religious religious systems which have structures and hierarchies they are also seen with great suspicion the the default assumption is that this structure has been created for for gaining power okay that through the structure somebody can somebody can develop competence or go toward excellence or transcendence those are seen as secondary at all present so suspicion about structures so it's we could say more first is the mode in terms of epistemology how we know then the second could be more in terms of functionality that that's why we can say there is a huge crowd of spiritual but not religious that they usually associate religion with either some structure of dogmas or some structure of rituals and say i don't want those but i want to experience something higher in life so that sbnr group this will that is uh that is quite typical of the postmodern mind that's that second thing about structures and third would be broadly speaking the postmodern mind is often more concerned with uh with you could say more with feelings than facts that if something feels good we want to do it so now this is not necessarily bad it is the whole attempt for social justice is in social justice itself is not a post-modern endeavor it is of course that is you you could say almost humanitarian endeavor but anything which is seen as a discriminatory or unjust there is a strong opposition to that and sometimes in proposing solutions that people are governed more by feelings than facts this sounds right so we should do this so now again i might be making some connections which not everybody would agree with but say in america there is a soul defend the police agitation is there now there are of course genuine reasons why the genuine ex reasons why people may have suspicion about police authority there have been abuses of power but for most people and if there is no police there will be chaos in society that's their way of looking at it but here the idea is oh the police police are causing so much injustice so decrease polish police degrees policing and focus more on on education on other facilities which will bring about sustainable change in society so so now whether just providing more education whether providing better medication better health facilities and all those things whether that actually decreases crime whether that so often the facts are not examined so much but one is driven by quite a bit by feelings so i would say experiences then focus on experiences then suspicion about structures and feeling based activism there is a zeal to do something but it's largely feeling based so now there could be a lot more in postmodernism but these are three broad things i thought we could address does this resonate with your experience also broadly kind of people encounter i definitely yes feel those trends and thought for sure yeah and um so where to start would would you like me to start with um i guess just some of our some of our discoveries with wisdom of the sages like what we've kind of um experienced yes with the people that we're connecting with yeah yeah so any of the people with any of these mindsets if uh you encountered them and how you presented bhakti to them or what challenges they faced in except in bhakti and how you dealt with those you could go that way also or you you can go according to your thought rule well in one sense um the wisdom of the stage is a dialogue between myself and roganath and everyone else is just listening right of course we do take questions once a week um and and they may get into these topics but um maybe what i would you know currently we have about six thousand people that listen per day to tourism in the stages so it's like six thousand people listening to bob with tommen the interesting thing is um that so many of them had no prior experiences until very recently you know for instance a lot of people a lot of our listeners uh there's a huge spike in our listenership from people from the joe rogan show which is a popular podcast that has absolutely nothing to do with spirituality or eastern spirituality or anything like that but raganath appeared on that spoke about bhagavad-gita spoke about his journey in life and that broad that brought over a huge spike in our listenership so that means you're dealing with someone from scratch and someone you know that is likely in one way or another either a product of post-modern thinking or you know responding to post-modern thinking in some way so it's a it's it's a big you know it's a big sport of of people um maybe let's start with the institution because that's just that's important yeah that's the first thing which i think we have to encounter immediately yeah yeah and you know my thoughts about institution have maybe they've developed a little bit since doing wisdom the sages um it's occurred to me that well let me put it this way first of all raganath and i we we speak openly say about iskcon you know we we talk about we talk about our experiences growing up in it we don't speak in a cynical way although sometimes we look back at it in a humorous way or we may you know point out uh flaws or weaknesses that were there not so much with a with any kind of bitterness but just like uh as an observation you know again sometimes humorously and sometimes um to help us better understand how to how we might do things better but we try to never do it with any kind of any kind of axe to grind or some kind of cynicism or anything like that but um we don't we what we definitely don't do is present um bhagavatam or krishna consciousness or the practice of bhakti as something that's dependent on a particular institution um that that you know you you you need to become a member of this institution in order for this to work for you or something like that and i think largely what we understand is that the institution is there to bring us to the goal of the practice which is krishna prema right it's there to bring us to that stage where um from within the heart you know arises that that true nature of of love for god and that we feel that love for through through feeling for that root of all existence uh we feel it for you know every living entity who's like you could say a leaf on the on the trees of those of that existence you know for every living being we should feel that compassion or affection in some way and that the institution is is designed to get you there you know it's not that you're meant to fall in love with the institution but that the institution is meant to facilitate your love for god and for every living being and um i think that can get lost you know and maybe post my you know and maybe a presentation that is um not recognized that that is more institutionally directed more you know when that when the the attitude is how we're going to get these people into the institution how you know how how do we get more members of the institution if that's in the psyche of of the person that's presenting it perhaps the post-modern mind will not respond very well to it you know it'll be sensed it'll be understood and it'll be so avoided a couple of things thank you for mentioning this sure if you're uh so i also heard your podcasts on youtube and when in one sense what you are saying is that uh you you made that nice categories that either people are influenced by post modernism or people are reacting to postmodernism also both both those kind of people might be there and i am seeing that there are quite a few people who are opposing post modernism also quite aggressive opposition to that is there to that so you are addressing both of those so we could say one one group may be very strongly a defender of the institution and the other could be like a very strong critic of the institution but what you are doing is you are avoiding both of these extremes by focusing on focusing just on the message of bhakti yeah so try to keep it there yes not only not honestly not only as a presentation but actually as well as like within our own lives in our own practice you know in this day or this age of polarization you know not that i try to be aloof to social concerns but i definitely try to avoid um being swayed by the emotion that you're talking about you know on either end true so oh so the point i was making is that while we are you mentioned that we don't show we don't say that this is dependent on the particular organization so then if we consider do we talk about standards say for example four regular principles or chanting a certain number of rounds so now if we consider part of the tradition there are the five potent forms of devotional services are mentioned sure so but the specific magnitude how much to chant is not mentioned within the tradition that is more we could associate with the institution so when we are teaching can you give some examples of where or what not emphasizing the institution would mean does it mean that you don't tell people to visit ice con temple or what what do you mean by not emphasizing the institution well i you know i suppose um we we try to speak the the like well for instance you brought up okay there are five potent forms of devotional service um and and the understanding is there that even one of these has such potency that if you become absorbed in it if you absorb your mind in it it's powerfully transformative so then the question is well i do try to absorb my mind and i sit down and check my rounds and i don't feel all the transformation that i meant to feel uh okay well then let's look at why are you apparently you're not absorbed in it like properly you know like and that may have to do with our attitudes that might have to do with our lifestyle that might have to do with our sentiments that something's not quite lined up right now now whether the institution is going to help you get there or not in my mind isn't so important like for perhaps perhaps like ruganoth and myself are going to help the person understand like the right conceptions or you know the the right sentiments that one needs to have in the chant that name to feel a more transformative power in it but in one sense you know raganath and i must we're both products of the institution you know so it's it's the institutions if if we can help them understand that then once since the institution's done it's played his role you know it's it's intere you know i was just i was thinking recently about one statement prabhupad made and i i hope i'm quoting it accurately um but it was more or less that at one point probably said that even if this con collapses that's okay as long as the bbt continues does that sound yeah and so it made me think that um that that that was just interesting we we you know we might be institutionalized in in our thinking and we may have uh you know based on our experience we may see that there are temples with people that live in those temples tha and from from those temples consciousness or bhakti will spread um and it's dependent but is it really or you know could the role of those temples shift with time could it be that there are just people you know out there they may be authors they may be musicians they they may play another role in popular society and they're reaching many people um with with the message of bhakti and people are being transformed because those people are reaching them not so much people coming out of a particular temple and that the temple's role could be that place you go to to seek route and create in the temple you know it's like to have darshan you know perhaps that's where the future goes you know whoever can carry that that message effectively carry that and and um and sorry i didn't get what you're saying are you saying that you know the the role of the temple temple would be a base for authors and poets or the authors and poets will be elsewhere and they will encourage people to go to the temples for the version of the deities is that yeah yeah the the the second one um in other words i i think in the past we've we saw we've seen maybe we still do see temples is a breeding ground for preachers that go out into the world and change the world um yes but is it always those people that are actually reaching the most people you know um you even you know imagine if you know there are you know sooner or later a movie's gonna come along sooner or later a musician is good just like george harrison you know or the role that even ruganov played and his bandmates in the band shelter where they were reaching so many people now we see someone like a genevieve harrison can reach you know hundreds of thousands of people you know with through her music through social media you know and others are out there and they're reaching people with these messages ragnarok and are surprised that actually so many people listen to wisdom sages it's it's interesting we feel that the message is suitable that if we were just promoted more there are a lot there are a lot more people that are out there that would also be willing to listen to it and be affected by it so it may not be that um people need to come to a temple to learn krishna consciousness from the people that live inside that temple but it may be that those temples could just be the place where you go to uh to see runner maybe celebrate a festival but there's people you know not only reaching people with the message but maybe even supplying them or providing them the care and assistance that they need to progress on that path you know through different care you know in different ways so it seems to me like it's already moving that way and i think uh the the whole lockdown with covenant and everything may have accelerated that a bit too you know that's an interesting point okay yeah so the institution at least in terms of physical boundaries of the institution they have become the physical structure and the physical boundaries the institution have significantly become downplayed because of the pandemic yeah yeah you know we notice it also in terms of usually a devotee would go to the local temple to hear a class but now a person can hear even if they want to hear classes they can hear from anyone in any part of the world practically yeah and i think it on me perhaps unintentionally not with you know or let's say with only the best intentions but i think the institution may have had a way of holding down um certain people that did have the ability to spread krishna consciousness you know there is a structure there's a hierarchy and so on that that's established um and with kovid you know everyone just going online it's like whoever's reaching people is going to reach people you know beautifully put uh yeah yeah that's true so so yeah you know if you want to go online uh in an institution some people may be given opportunity to speak others may not be but in social media or through the internet anybody can speak and if people are attracted they are attracted yeah that's so true i think it was it's similar like i'm no expert on this but i think like for instance in in like say with popular music in the past it would be very difficult to get a record contract you know there are a number of record companies that you could get a contract with um you know and they would really have control over you in terms of you know your art you know artistically and so on but you're kind of stuck with that uh and you know there would be great talent out there but if they didn't see that talent then you were never discovered and so on but in in this age you know people can get their music out and put it up on instagram and you know and from what i understand you know a popular musician may find a whole new path to to popularity nowadays and so maybe that there's a similar trend in terms of reaching people that's true i think you know in one sense we could say we started earlier also with in publishing because now we needed a publisher in the past and of course now also you might choose publishers but you if you have the capacity to produce good content and you have capacity to reach people then anybody can write their own book and put it on kindle put it on amazon and reach audience yeah that's also there yeah so in one sense we can say that it's not so much structures are being removed but structures are being redefined yeah because if you go back to the point of example of amazon there are a lot of people who are concerned about say the way the ethics of employment in amazon that people are being exploited workers are not uh too much work is reminded they're not paid enough or whatever so we could almost say that you cannot really reject remove structures but some structures some hierarchies may become dysfunctional because of societal changes or because they no longer serve the needs as they were serving earlier um yeah it seems like there's always you know um we tend to choose the structure or that structure but really to really serve people requires flexibility like that seems how the world is you know people argue right conservatives argue for small government liberals argue for large government but fact is it's got to be able to shift according to the circumstances you know beautifully see even if this video podcast what you mentioned it's a non-institutional form of outreach but then even the podcast market is also it has its own hierarchy it's like somebody who's at the top they will naturally get they will appear on the search engines they will they will they will spread more and because you got from joe rogan so that that also help you to reach a larger audience that and and and what that did just to substantiate your point was by doing that we immediately also shot to number one ranked spiritual podcast on apple podcast so it was if someone went to search for a podcast on apple podcast they would see us you know that happened because around joe rogan so yeah it's it's it self perpetuates itself or it's like snowballs like that is true okay so so yeah that is one thing that about post modernism you really can't get away with structures so it's about liberals and liberals and conservatives in one sense liberals may say that oh we want to defend the police or whatever we they may oppose structures but eventually they create their own structures and sometimes their structures are quite uh quite uh quite overbearing invenses in a you say we may say that society will not it could be capitalism will not equitably reward will not bring about social equity economic equity but then to provide welfare to provide bring about justice and equity you have to create a whole complex structure through which affirmative action or india reservation systems they can be accumulated so we in one says we can't get away from structures entirely it's it's happening with wisdom of the stages right now actually because in one sentence it's just been myself but you know we realize that there's a lot of people you know that are out thousands of people that want to practice bhakti and either they're kind of isolated out there or you know again even if there's an institution in you know like a say in iskan temple or something in their area they it mean it may not appeal to them or they may not they it may alienate them in some way and so we're realizing that we actually have to provide a network of support for these people they're actually gonna you know just listening to a podcast won't be enough you need to have someone you can answer questions too you need to have someone that you can share your struggles with or share your you know victories with and have some friendship and a little bit of mentorship and so we're reaching out now we're developing right as we speak and we hope to launch very soon where people within the wisdom of the sages audience that want to practice bhakti can join reading groups online and there they would have a like you know a place to not just read but also to check in with one another and share their thoughts and share their questions etc and so now you start to build a structure right and and furthermore we want to like we want to tie together all those groups and draw research from those groups as to what issues are most challenging to them to continue their practice you know and those may be you know psychological issues those may be relational issues they may have to do with raising a family they may have to do with depression or anxiety they have to do with addiction uh it may have to do with institutional concerns or you know philosophical concerns um a wide variety of things that may be obstacles to people continuing the practice what we want to do is create a whole nother tier in this institution you know that in a sense that we're creating that can really provide answers and content for those people so that they might be able to continue their practice better and so yeah you do have to create an institution of some sort yeah in one sense you know when i was also interacting with the bhakti center and i think at that time you had also mentioned about the like the core and then the cultural ways people can come the yoga where people can come so it was quite well structured so you could say it's more like what you mentioned about uh you finding the structure it's not so much uh like when structures outlive their utility then we have to find their appropriate structures flexibility flexibility flexibility yeah okay so so so if somebody say ask are you scared devotees how would you answer that someone asked me yeah say on prime minister yeah if you were introduced through the if you're speaking on the hmong sport or not about your wisdom all the sages yeah and there if some some person who you know is quite new they come from joe rogan or something like that so would you if they ask are you are you a iscon member or a scorn devotee uh yeah i identify i identify with the institution sure you know i don't claim responsibility for everything that it does right but i do identify with with the uh with the institution and but i'm not bent on making you a part of that institution i'm i'm my i see my role is to bring the best of that institution to people rather than to necessarily exactly bring people to that institution if bringing them to that institution is going to serve that great and if it's going to hinder that well then let me just take the best from the institution and bring it to you that's nice and in one sense the bring the best also involves a certain level of individuality you understand what is the best for sure for that person and you also you are you are doing some editing or selecting what you have experienced was the best so then that is actually we could say that that's almost the responsibility of every person who is trying to share wisdom isn't it so that it's not just giving the traditions wisdom but tradition but giving the most most relevant or accessible or transformative aspect of the tradition yeah so the way you phrased it concert right now was this something which you with a very nice phrasing that bring the best of the institution to the people not bring people to the institution so is this something which you also over a period of time realized that okay this is what i am doing or this is what i should be doing because in general within iskcon the idea is we get people to come to the temple we get people to come to iskcon that's that's that's the definition of preaching so was this like a consciously decided strategy or it just subconsciously happened based on the way you were interacting with people i think um it was subconscious and it's becoming more conscious okay you know i think the last time we spoke we talked a little bit about my history and we mentioned that um back in 2003 i i brought an idea to rajna swami and about creating a cultural center in new york and he responded with enthusiasm and i said what's the next step and he said you've become a yoga teacher which i had no experience or you know ambition to become but that sent me out into a world that i hadn't you know i had been among for for 13 14 years prior to that and for the first time i really stepped out of that even though i was regularly like as a brahmachar you know involved in the world and going to rock concerts constantly to sell books or going to colleges you know but but actually um it really kind of got me out of a bubble it put me where i wasn't just um entering that world but i was like making friends in that world and developing relationships in that world and learning in that world and that you know honestly i think if we want to um reach people we have to understand them and it's when you're living in your bubble you may not even realize you're living in your bubble but it it's it's harder to understand people at least in the field that i serve in it was important for me and and and rugged also the two of us you know um we're always reaching people outside you know always connecting with people outside always befriending people outside always you know serving people outside of the institution and so i think we kind of subconsciously maybe understood it in the past but i think with wisdom the sages is becoming all the more conscious okay that's true and uh i mean and that's true in the sense that i can say that uh for me also it is uh especially when i started coming from traveling toward the into the west i realized that most of the western outreach programs which happen they don't happen through the institution they happen through quite often the individuals who are inspired by the institution but the individuals are taking some initiatives and that's how things happen so now specifically if you talk about the bhagavatam when you're talking in the bhagavata i don't really see that intrinsically the bhagavatam talks about an institution in fact we could say that the idea of an institution is almost uh at least a religious institution is absent within the bhagavatam yeah sometimes the sages step into the political institution and instruct the king and then they have no official position yeah so one aspect one one thing which might be considered a religious institution although we could say it is more of a social institution also is the varanasi name or the caste system or how it has become as perceived as the caste system in today's world so is that something which uh you address or you don't get too much into that yeah well you can't you can't really read bible time without addressing it you know yeah we certainly do yeah but you know the way that i understand that too like in my own prabhupada had some vision for varnasrama dharma you know in the western world um how that vintage vision manifests in exactly what it manifests and how long it takes to fully manifest i don't know you know um but in my own life uh the wisdom of varnasrama not necessarily the application or misapplication that we see in the world of it but the wisdom of it has been to some degree applicable in my own life and i so i value it and if i'm going to share it with someone else i'm going to share it in that way in other words how a individual might benefit from from from these teachings for instance uh will you take like you know um avaisha right what do i understand advice to be from from my readings you know certainly you know there's a description of it like carrying you know like farming and so on but my understanding is that the vice is not necessarily the worker on the farm but like the owner of the farm you know who's employing people that are working on the farm and the vice is someone that has the aptitude and the ability the intelligence the drive to make money and um i may have that aptitude i may not i personally i don't but i know people that do i know people that you know they have that they have that mind for making money and it's uh and that skill that mindset comes with strengths and weaknesses and i think those are patterns that we see it's you know throughout all you know globally throughout different cultures and so on but that that truth um about these categories of psychology you could say it's real it's not just something that they were creating to you know manipulate or something like that but it's it's just it's a cycle if you look at it these are psychological patterns and what is for instance what is the the weakness of someone that has that ability commonly it will be their greed right that you get unless you're trained and unless you've had certain values instilled in you from from an early time then you might see what i see like in american culture right now where people who have the ability to make a lot of money commonly become very callous they become very proud they think that the success of their life is the amount of money that they can make so even if i if i'm worth 5 billion if i'm sitting at a table with someone that's worth 10 and 20 billion i feel um somehow inadequate and and i think i need to make more money and i'm willing to um either i'm willing or i'm so callous that i'm unaware of the suffering that i'm causing to try to earn that money whereas if it was instilled into me at an early time in my life and if i saw it in in others and it was clear clarified to me that this that with my ability the weakness that i should be aware of is greed and my focus as like a goal or my focus towards success is not to make more money than the next person and do whatever it takes to do that my focus is to be that person that cares very well for all their workers right or that person that is known for giving in charity to noble causes if that becomes instilled in my mind clearly then not only am i helping society but i'm also helping myself progress in yoga because where the mind may say more i'm i'm going to train my mind and that's called yoga right i'm going to train my mind to serve and so i see like duty as the first step in mastering the mind to the first step in yoga and varnashram provides duties that are suitable for our individual psyches in a brilliant way so all that being said i'm you know how do i that's how that's how i explain this to someone you know that beautiful yeah the water as individual yeah it benefits the individual benefits of society but maybe if it's presented that way there's an aspect of it that appeals to the postmodern mind um so it's uh one it's more in terms of values and uh you could say the benefits that come from values yeah so that's right yeah that's one aspect of post-modernism uh that it is quite utilitarian so people are not so much interested in in philosophical spirituality as pragmatic spirituality that sure whether a soul exists or not or whether god exists or not is that people not interested in so much of a debate on that as okay if god exists how how is that going to make a difference in my life sure so which is great that that's fair enough right we should be happy with that with with um like if someone opens the door like that then if we're not able to to step up and explain how it benefits them as an individual in a benefit society then we're really not worthy messengers of it and we really don't understand it very well they're not worthy messengers i would rather have someone come to me with that attitude like whether god exists or not i i'm i'm actually not even so concerned with i won't know how we benefit from what you're sharing i'd rather have someone there than someone that's like religious and just totally rejected me because it's a different religion and they can't even like see the commonality of it you know which might which might be your modern or you know you know your modern uh is that would you when you define modernism in the beginning and you yeah that would be there rationality so i i argue about the rationality of my belief system and you argue about the rationality of the belief system yeah i never thought of it in this terms that actually utilitarianism sometimes we use that in a negative sense that but utilitarianism can actually be unifying and we see that quite a bit in the environmental movement today that environment because environmental concerns have brought a lot of diverse people together religious non-religious people from different religions also so i had a podcast with gauranga where he is working iscon has been recognized as a fbo they call it faith-based organization yeah and like the governmental organization non-government organization faith-based organization so it's interesting utilitarianism can actually uh maybe i avoid the ism but the utilitarian approach can actually open minds and unify because people people see the practical benefits so yeah perfect and so let's try to present the practical benefits individually as well as socially or collectively that's true anyone says that will also address the first concern about experience yes i want to experience what is what how does it feel how what does it do yeah so uh taking this point forward if we consider see in one sense i am realizing that although you are presenting the bhagavatam but you could also say that the the bhagavatam is in one sense the message and the bhagavatam is also the medium for the message because in one sense we we use the bhagavatam to talk about a whole way of living and not ever not everything that you talk about the way of living is directly based on the bhagavatam so because because because we live in a very different time that's compared to the bhagavatam times the times where the bhagavatam are describing so taking that point forward if with respect to experiential aspect i think the bhakti tradition has a lot of potentials for providing experiences like kirtans can be immediately joyful and coming in a devotee community where where there is a healthy amount of service attitude that can also be very very wonderfully inspiring um i agree 100 and i think actually people are starving there's a beauty in the culture and i think people these people that i'm you know that that i'm um aware of are people where i live and so i think they're starving for that actually there's there's a beauty in the culture there's um obviously something um satisfying and even necessary in someone's life in terms of like socially uh gathering with people that share their values and those very basic things that kind of define a community like eating together telling stories together playing music together dancing together um preparing food together those things are so central and so um well-developed and beautiful within the bhakti culture that they also have a lot of experiential power you know to draw someone to that path beautiful so now if we move forward uh in terms of experience a little bit what are the aspects of the experience that you find are obstacles and what are the aspects of experience that are opportunities so at one level an experiential approach is good but then we also have the principle that that which tastes like nectar in the beginning will taste like poison in the end happiness in the mode of passion that which tastes like poison in the beginning will taste like nectar in the end happens in the morning of goodness so there are some aspects of bhakti where the experiences may not be particularly joyful kirtan may be joyful but japan might be quite quite demanding at times so how much should we emphasize consciously the experiential aspect and how do we deal with when the experiential aspects turns out to be unhelpful or even harmful in some ways for a person who's deciding whether i want to take this path okay so if i understand your question correctly um i want to share with you um what i've observed say within the the the community of the listeners of wisdom of the stages about how experienced how a personal experience of bhakti has been positive for them and then what challenges are there in their personal experience in and i'm going to separate those because when i talk about what the challenges are and it seemed that you defined it in terms of the practice um but particularly practices like you know when i say pratt like shravanam kiertnum etc um but what i've we had a very interesting experience recently and that was we had our 500th episode of wisdom the sages and so we did something we did something we never did before which was we um it was a two-hour podcast where we just heard from the listeners about how listening to shreem brzee on a daily basis has affected their lives and so we went back and forth in between yeah it is i i recommend i really recommend that people that are interested in bob tom and bhakti and teaching bhakti or reaching people i recommend that they watch this episode it's just called 500 it's our 500th episode oh okay um it was it was a combination of of us reading letters that people had sent in and then people speaking live on zoom we went back and forth for two hours now in almost every case i don't know how many letters and it must have been i don't know at least 20 maybe more 30 something like that you know testimonies were shared and in practically every single case the testimony had to do with a particular challenge that this world is bringing to their life and how the philosophy how the teachings how the wisdom of the bhakti tradition empowered them to deal with it or to overcome it across the board that's what it was again and again and again so that's how i see the experience i mean there's sure there's experience in terms of cure time you know like being in a kirtan or the experience of chanting japan and those are important things and we should do all that we can to provide satisfying experience in those realms but it seems to me like what's really affecting people is you helped me through bhagavatam helped me have the right mindset that i needed to have when my father passed away before i was hearing this i would have felt certain things and i would have you know this it would have been it would have been an entirely negative and depressing experience for me but because i was hearing by with tom i was able to step up i was able to serve and that's in that circumstance i was able to gain deeper realizations about life because my mind had been trained by hearing bob with tom daley you know we there's one story i share it's it's um it's almost it's heartbreaking for me but it's a lady she's a friend of mine she listens every day you know and her husband um went through a motorcycle accident um where um he's it was about i think 10 months ago or longer that the accident happened he's still in the hospital he's gone through 50 surgeries he lost a leg um over 50 surgeries she they had two children she was pregnant when the accident happened she's had her third child since then with her husband you know doctors have you know were telling her that he's not gonna make it probably it's a long shot that he'll live then they're coming saying oh maybe it looks like he'll live then they come back again and say we don't think we'll live in it's just like months and months you know of of a type of torture you know and fear and trouble you know on her own and she was just saying because i listen to bhagavatam every single day you know without this this is the thread that's that i'm holding on to and that's giving me strength and giving me sanity you know through the obstacles that this world is throwing at me and again it was it was so many it was just like the whole thing was that it it to me it was a testimony as to the power of the bhagavatam and it really in my mind showed that if we want to reach people with this message it can be framed this way you know that that um you know let us consider how we frame the message of bhakti but that there that there's a um the the potential to share it perhaps the the the most um effective way is to help people understand how it addresses the struggles that they go through in life and when they experience that then it's no longer just all theory but they say this is for real this stuff works you know these ancient texts have wisdom that transcends time and their faith increases beautiful i mean as you said it's tragic in one sense it's heartbreaking but it's also beautiful in the sense that um this is this is a place where you could say spiritual wisdom tangibly meets human need yes and that's where transformation can be seen and can be it can be appreciated so there is this at one level one concern that when we focus on the practical application there is a tendency to downplay or neglect the philosophy so of course we can say that there are technical aspects of philosophy for example what exactly is what is in india itself there have been many many systems of philosophy and how our traditions philosophy is development over from other traditions other philosophies in the past so we don't go usually also into technical aspects of the philosophy too much but is there a danger of say we becoming something like a self-help or a therapeutic therapy therapy group instead of actually teaching bhakti spirituality sure yeah and that's why like as i said before you know i think we need to be flexible um for instance you know because we're reading bhagavatam so much comes up you know we're we have to get into the theology there's no way around it not that we don't want to but you know lord vishnu is appearing and and and the the devotees are taking his darshan and and um offering their prayers and it just happens again and again and again so the you know the the theological aspect is is always going to be there but we find that um i find i think ruganas has found that's not such you know perhaps this um for a lot of people you as when you describe the post-modern mind you know it it's the way that you presented it sound like if someone were deeply invested in this they're pretty cynical it sounds like you know they're pretty cynical and it almost sounds like they're taking it to a level that's very impractical you know that's an interesting part you know it's a great yeah we also say that if we come here call somebody a mayavadi but actually the number of mayavadis are a large number of people whom we might simplistically label as mayavadis they may simply have some some influence of maya the conceptions yes i would say that yeah they're not deeply invested not deeply invested here in fact there's a logical problem also with uh post-modernism that you know some people say postmodernism itself is self-contradictory because one of the like the fundamental tenets of postmodernism is that there is no absolute truth all truths are basically just instruments for uh for gaining power but then the obvious counter question comes up is then isn't post modernism also uh construct for gaining power so because by deconstructing everything else we the postmodern thinkers put themselves at the top so yeah so yeah yeah so nobody's people not very they could say they are influenced by it but they are not invested in it so much and they will influence also to varying degrees right so exactly so so my at least my experience would be that there's certainly plenty of people out there more than we're reaching that aren't so that may be affected by post-modern thought maybe influenced by it in both ways that would be um favorable as well as unfavorable for their interest in bhakti but in either case they're not so deeply invested in it that once they get enough taste of it once they hear enough that they begin to open up you know and this is this is what again what i've really found is that um and we discussed this last time we spoke too is that you know we're reaching a lot of people say in their mid-30s to mid 40s when they've gone through the different ups and downs in life they've given up on maybe you know maybe some of their uh you know at least when i was young you know i was more deeply invested in ideas like this but then the practical world hits you you know and you're trying to raise a family and you're trying to make some money and you're trying to you know to take care of yourselves and get through life and you're dealing with some tragedies and you're dealing with some different kind of struggles you give up on a lot of your idealism you know um that you had previously and you hit you hit a stage of life where you've gone through a lot uh and you really want to make you really want some deeper meaning in life and some deeper way to see this and for a lot of people bhakti is right there for them you know it's it's um they're not so invested and they're they're actually eager for some true wisdom in life you know in a true spiritual practice and a true spiritual experience so um i think there's a a lot of people like that you know a lot of people like that and um we we just need to expand our reach and uh and people are eager for it that's beautiful in terms of if i may put it this way is that if you have uh a demographic of people so there might be certain levels of overlays which they say oh i don't want to be a part of the institution but it's not that they are going to be it's not that their mission in life is to is tear down their fear of death institutions they may have some reservations and if the underlying concerns are addressed then those reserve reservations may often go away and they can connect easily with relatively less difficulty you know interesting uh recently deva matava prabhu i read something that he wrote which was a critique of the iskcon's disciple course where he felt it was largely kind of like a pledge of allegiance to an institution and he found that it sounds like that what he was describing was that he says there are many people that he's you know ministering to i suppose you could say that when it comes time for that it becomes a real obstacle you know and maybe that's evidence of uh part of what we're talking about today that uh of that postmodern interesting yeah and that uh can you repeat exactly what you said so that actually reinforces the sense of identity without identification with the institution is that what yeah in other words i believe in his opinion a better disciples course would be a course that that teaches shastrictly what is a guru what is a disciple focuses on that uh rather than it seems like there was a large i'm not even so familiar with it but it seems that there's a large element of institutional um [Music] what's the word i'm looking for but like um kind of like instilling a certain institutional consciousness um in the per perspective disciple and he felt a lot of people that he was reaching were um did not feel that he's experienced that a lot of people that he was reaching were um very averse to that and and the best response would be that they'd be like kind of like okay i'll kind of just like ignore that you know and and other people like i don't know if i can i don't know if i want to be involved in this you know so he was finding that kind of uh experience it seems to me like that that um one might question like at this point in our conversation well what about the bhagavatam itself like in other words you know is the content of the bhagavatam problematic for the post-modern mind you know or maybe the better question is is there are there aspects of the bog with time that can be highlighted um for the post-modern mind that will appeal to them you know and i feel that there are you know if i understand post-modernism correctly yeah that's interesting now there are certainly aspects of bhagavatam which are objectionable to the modern mind in terms of some of the cosmological chronological aspects but what about the postpartum mind i think maybe some aspects of social justice some statements about women and things like that um yeah did well you know my understanding is that just the on the the very basis of bhagavatam you know like as compared to any other vedic literature in one sense the very basis of it is is suited to the post-modern mindset in that it's a um it's a text that's responding to you know vyasadeva's mission when he went back you know on the order of narda and redid the bhagavatam right he he um he revisited the bhagavatam and re-edited it and represented it uh in response to particularly to the vedas but i suppose also to the upanishads right to to the conceptions of karma and ghana that were that were there in the in the previous vedic literature that in one sense you know right off the bat um you know at the um at the very start of bhagavatam you know it's mentioned dharma project you know that that this text is going to reject religious activity that's materially motivated right um it it's in in many ways i think we can see bhagavatam as like we're concerned only with substance here we're going in and the substance ultimately is divine love you know like that's that's how i understand the whole way that the bhagavatam opens up which to me is the most really fascinating like um the connection between the first and second chapters of the first kanto i find it to be like just brilliant you know just absolutely brilliant and that you had these sages who are compassionate by nature you know who who saw a dark age coming um who turned to the one amongst them that they found to be the most pure and simple as well as learn it you know it wasn't this it wasn't simply the most senior person that they sought out like you know with an institutional mindset but you know they they mention a pseudo he's saumya you know he's he's pure and simple and therefore he was like endowed with all the the the you know the the you know like the the secrets the deeper stuff you know that not everybody that you know that just um approaches this literature has but you know because they had genuine you know qualities of simplicity and purity that he had deeper realization and then they ask you know what brings the highest shreya you know what what what brings the highest good for people you know and what brings people to atma supercidity and so then when when uh sudoku swami in the second chapter when he responds that it's bhakti right it's divine love it's actually you know it's actually divine love and divine love only that delivers utmost supercidity that delivers complete satisfaction um and and then he qualifies it you know that that divine love should be and there should be absolutely no selfish motivation you could even say like no institutional motivate you know it's just like there's a purity in that that i think the post-modern mind might find appealing you know that that word yeah we're looking for for for someone that's just you know not religious but spiritual right they turn to that person that was they saw as the most deeply spiritual and then his answer okay it's bhakti and it's pure bhakti right that we're looking for and it the way that i read that um the the second chapter of of the bhagavatam and and how it opens up and where it goes like immediately is that he says bhakti is the way it's divine love and then almost like there's a type of um scriptural or you could just say even like almost practically like institutional response to that message where the first thing is well what about renunciation right like isn't the the if i'm understanding upanishad is right doesn't the deepest happiness and life come through the rejection you know of material enjoyment and the walking away you know from from material life and in answer to that um you know the response is vasudeva bhagavati that by rendering devotional service to god to krishna through bhakti divine love one immediately acquires causeless knowledge and detachment from this world in other words that's not even our focus here when you focus on the truest substance on divine love you don't even have to it's like it's a byproduct that that uh detachment develops and then someone might ask okay well what about you know we were reading the vedas and the vedas seem to indicate that you know by following dharma mashram but following duty very nicely that you get all the good things in life isn't that where happiness comes from and then you know the next verse you know dharmasvanustha you know um that the the occupational activities the duties that when the religion that one performs right you know following my religious rules very nicely um if they don't bring out some real substance some real if it doesn't approach uh you know provoke attraction you know rutty something real and something you know personal experience right what is rutty you know if not a personal experience in someone's own consciousness or someone's own heart if it doesn't if your religion doesn't bring you to some roti to some genuine attraction to god then not only is it rejected it said here you know in strong terms srama kevin it's completely useless so it's like to me that's saying your religion is useless if it's not bringing you to a point of personal experience beautiful and then the whole bible time is based off that you know it's just all the whole 12 cancer seems to me just like again and again and again it's showing how divine love is superior to ritual it's superior to religion it's superior to even renunciation you know divine love is always the highest principle and how we understand an individual is how deeply they've they've experienced or realizing that and so the bible time is throwing out again and again like um kind of caught in a sense cautionary i see them as cautionary kind of um narrations where we were you know someone in the religious mindset you know is prone to condemnation you know like that you know it's like you know whoever does the ritual right or whoever's from the community that's been trained the most or whoever you know it's from a particular you know sex or gender or whoever's from a particular community the religious mindset tends to go that way is like who's superior and the bible time keeps pointing out again and again like flipping it no look for the substance don't look at this the structure but look at the substance indra the king of heaven right like in one sense the leader of the devas perhaps like the most successful religious man and um uh materialist you know religious materialist he's he's a person to be glorified but bhavatam again again makes a fool of him you know again it totally humiliates him you know it quite throughout you know throughout its uh cantos things like that i see is like you know uh messages that the the post-modern mind might uh embrace so again this brings it to your earlier point that that the structures are not denied by the bhagavatam but repeatedly those structures are are subordinated to their purpose and that that is something which can appeal in in fact you could say that there are so many places the bhagavatam it is inverts traditional structures ambarish maharaj who is a householder and shatria who is shown to be superior to somebody who is a who is sannyasi and a brahmana similarly we have a technically an asura but he wants to be superior to adeva so yeah so that way that's beautiful so so many places you know maybe the most i'm sorry please go away say the top most of people in the traditional vedic hierarchy they are shown to be subordinate but one interesting point is that that the bhagavatam doesn't although it shows their inadequacies in quite strong stark terms it doesn't utterly reject the hierarchies that means although many times brahmanas are shown to be brahmanas are shown to be self-serving like shukracharya was but then after that it shows that still even mohammed is shown to be quite a power hungry and abusive kind of person in the governor but at the end he's still told to return back to his position he's not rejected condemned so it's very interesting yeah so it's there's a deference to the structure in one's overall differential structure is maintained but at the same time the inadequacies and structure are not denied in any way they are they are not leave alone deny it they are quite explicitly highlighted also when required so many examples right for instance um jada bharta and maharaja initially comes off as like the most arrogant type of leader right he's at the top of the power structure it and to the point where he's become callous to those that are below him in the power structure he's he's um sarcastic you know he's arrogant uh all negative qualities and all the all the kind of qualities that the post-modern mind would you know be quick to jump all over but we see that when juda barto who in this pastime is practically like a mentally disabled at least appears to be a mentally disabled person right like not even in the varnasrama you know he's technically born in a brahmin family but he's like he appears to be practically a you know like um a a mentally incapable person but when he begins to speak wakes up you know and then the power of his words penetrated him so although he was the villain you know at one point actually perhaps the the real lesson for us to learn uh from this leela is his the change that he went through or like how he was able to face his own ignorance and with humility um reapproach jada barta you know from a place of humility you know that that and so i i like your point a lot because it's almost like um it seems to me that if i'm understanding the post-modern mind right from you that that um that cynicism is eating is eating the post-modern mind up you know like i i don't want to get too deep into the politics of it all yeah um but it seems to me like um i can almost not identify with either side of a political issue anymore because even if i agree with with the politics on one side i often really disagree with the way that it's being approached the the the the attitude that it's actually lacking in divi again like and when i say diving again like if you if you go to to to like say a um a social leader like martin luther king i see his whole approach was based on the began right he was a he was he was like a spiritual he was coming from a spiritual place he was saying that we're all equal on a spiritual level we're all equal let's recognize that and and let's base our judgments on that you know that's what a brahmana is supposed to do right bring our mind to this the spiritual truth that we're missing and highlight it but i see a lot of the you know the the um the kind of this social um positions that people are taking on either side lack it they they lack that um and perhaps that's the way of the of the um that postmodern mind eating itself up so by the time again and again it's it's it's taking the proud and humbling them but we all need to become humbled actually you know that what time is trying to help us it's not just that oh you know you know the the brahmanas or the enemy or or the religious leaders of the enemy or you know the kings or the evil kings or the enemy or no we all we all like embody those qualities you know even when we may not be a king or a brahmana and and with we have to resp to learn to respond to our shortcomings with humility you know perhaps the most you know if there's one leela that might uh best uh appeal to the um the mind of the the post-modern mind or you could say like the mind concerned with with social injustice is the um the story of the wives of the prominence from the 10th canto you know we're very clearly the the you know they're the husbands who were brahmanas who were deeply learned you know trained institutionally um had a position of status in society um were you know we're religious were seen as um highly elevated religious figures in the community where their their realization was so lacking you know the depth of their spirituality was so lacking and then that's contrasted with their wives who were not trained who were not learned who didn't have the same status in society but they had the the actual spiritual substance and purified consciousness purified a heart and and and uh and how they're glorified and and but then again we see that the the brahmanas their husbands it's really interesting how that chapter ends where they say to hell with our learning to hell with all our rituals to hell with all of this stuff what does it mean when we're missing the whole point and our wives they saw the point so they they actually had that humility but i forget exactly what it says in the like that probably like the last verse of that chapter but it oh it says something about their fear of kamsa you know like they still didn't have deep spiritual realization dude i don't know if you're familiar with them yeah yeah what it says is that that although they appreciated what all they recognized that their wives were exalted devotees yeah and they realized that they had chosen wrongly but still they don't didn't go toward krishna immediately yeah you're not realizing so in one sense they they were at a particular level and they they stayed you could say stuck at this that level even if the inadequacy or the volume of that level was exposed to them right right because they didn't have the spiritual substance to do too many years of you know they had the they had the gam but not the vegan on that level you know whereas their wives had the beginning you know there's so much you know to me honestly where i find like some of the most interesting content um to for my own contemplation as well as sharing with others really has to do with paramatma which bhagavatam is going to speak so much about you know with with this conception of who or what is paramatma you know that that that the material world exists the idea that just as the sun and its rays penetrate the universe you know that the soul spreads its consciousness throughout the body but that there's not only one soul in each body but that there are two souls in each body and and it's their body because their consciousness is spread throughout it and so in a similar way this universe is the body first the first first paramatma is mahavishnu right who's the paramount of the entire material world his consciousness penetrates the entire material world then from his body come unlimited universes and within each one of those he becomes each universe becomes his body he's the soul of each universe and his consciousness spreads throughout that universe and then on the third level paramatma is what we usually speak of when we say para mama right within each individual body within that universe he enters as well as within every atom right so if i understand right what you're saying is that this conception of divinity is actually far more sophisticated as well as far more you could say accessible or even attractive you can say uh rather than the conventional religious conception of god and even if somebody doesn't really connect with krsna's god the conception of paramatma is something which can actually be appreciated by almost at a non-sectarian level even if somebody considers krishna to be like a sectarian deity yeah the conception of paramatma is actually quite non-sectarian isn't it it is and that's my point that's where it goes right in in other words that the the recognition that that within every body there's a soul that is of ident quality with myself and that just as i have gone through i should assume i should take for granted that i've gone through countless transformations in my journey throughout the world i've lived in all the different species and within the human form i've likely embodied many different mentalities right some of them um kinder and more cruel you know some of them were realized and some of them were ignorant um i've lived through it all right and now i'm currently in this body in this circumstance but a message has been shared with me to help me understand it better if i have that mentality and i'm seeing the soul in the super soul within every living being then it should i should actually start embracing this that this knowledge the scanner should should help me reflection on this scanner continued reflect daily relation on the scanner can mature into vigna where i actually begin to feel genuine affection or compassion for every living being and when i stand in their presence i'm not seeing just them but i'm seeing god within that same body and how my consciousness stays elevated due to that faith and that that insight to me this right here you know right here is where you really have a um an idea that's truly revolutionary you know that that that in a a real substantial way addresses our social ills and and it begins to expand that you know addressing our social problems has to do with our circles are too tight right you know going from like one family exploiting another family to one race exploiting another race to one nation exploiting another nation um to to us as a as a nation or as a corporation exploiting the earth you know and then to us you know as a species exploiting other species causing you know incalculable pain and harm that with this with this conception of the soul and the super soul within every body and the sacredness of that energy as unique from material energy this is a revolutionary idea that really from this platform of understanding we could really get somewhere you know we could we could and and when we ignore this even in our if we are ignorant of this then even our sincere endeavors for justice or equality um what we do fail they do fail so i i i i feel like in my own personal spiritual life the need and and i feel a bit of urgency to understand this more deeply um to to become conscious of it at every moment i was speaking this morning on wisdom of the stages about an experience i had recently where i was in colombia and a friend of mine and i went to a river where on the bank of the river were going to go swimming in it and there was a few people there and they had a pit bull you know like a potentially very dangerous dog i don't know i don't think they have pit bulls in india do they no not really okay but you know what it is is it a bull which is used for riding or wrestling or something like that no no it's it's a dog but a very muscular and powerful dog okay and they're often used for as guard dogs and and so on um and so this person had a pit bull at this dog and it was off the leash and it was in the water and as i was approaching the water it was coming right at me you know and and in that moment i was thinking like you know of the sages that wander in the forest you know the sunyasi right who puts themselves in krsna's hands right and when they encounter a tiger or a snake a cobra or whatever it may be you know it's not just that they're looking at that animal and thinking there's a stranger inside that body that doesn't know me that has no affection for me and i i have no idea how they're going to respond but they're they're even more so they're responding to the paramatma in that body and think there is a person in that body that's my friend you know that knows me and loves me and that i have a relationship with you know now if we can see everybody with that kind of vision you transform your own consciousness individual and you transform you know communities and nations with that knowledge and i think my understanding of what shrill prabhupad wanted us to do was to share this divyagana right to share this this is let's let's if we're talking about like i'm not religious but i'm spiritual well then the first question is define spiritual and to me this is what spirituality is right this is where spirituality becomes very practical even setting aside the theological aspects about it but just the very practical um ideas that are presented there that within every body that there's the soul which spreads consciousness throughout this body and then there's the paramatma whose consciousness is spread everywhere in one sense every you know he is in everything and everything is in him it through through the different stages of the paramatma this is spirituality in my mind and in my mind this is a type of spirituality which could be very appealing uh in a post-modern world this is so true somehow the concept of the super soul we could say that we have really uh under utilized it hugely because i i don't know i never thought about it the idea of tuning your consciousness receiving some higher wisdom and there is a lot that goes on in today's world uh there are several books which are which people the authors say that we are simply instruments and there are some higher beings who are writing these books through us so so now of course whether there are higher beings or not that could be a debated debatable issue but the point is that tuning into some higher wisdom tuning into some divine presence or some higher presence people are quite open to that especially if they can learn something from it so both in terms of the the concept this concept of paramatma is non-sectarian and both in terms of and in terms of interaction so we infuse every living being with uh with the dignity because of the divine presence yes and then we interact with them also in a more of a mood of learning we look at ourselves also in a more holistic way more healthier way because we see ourselves as parts of the divine so so do you have do you know of course in the bhagavatam you cannot downplay or deny krishna is directly there there are very clear and questionable manifestations of the divine now there are some maybe this is the last one or two questions we'll discuss see there are some teachers or some you could say in the indic scholars or hindu scholars they say that the potential for yoga not just yoga practice but even yoga philosophy to reach a broader audience is greater because it does not have a sectarian deity within it so it has these states of consciousness and then you can you can go dhara and samadhi so the entire process seems much more objective and nonsense not objective you could say at least it's much more non-sectarian whereas bhakti yoga seems quite sectarian because we are focusing on a particular duty a particular conception of that deity so so have you faced any challenge in presenting krishna as god or how do you deal with that well we do present christians god and and and we find you know it it may turn some people off but we've found that there's a lot of people that it doesn't but i i think it's a great uh focus that that you brought this to you know because there there's one might say that and there's some truth in that and i want to address that in a moment but the first thing i'll say is there's another side to it too there's a beauty in bhakti there's a cultural beauty in bhakti that's very satisfying you know that people are looking for which is missing from from a more you know let's i'm not sure you know what term you would want to use but from like a purely yogic perspective you know the depth of the beauty that's embarked is appealing no question so that's one thing um you know what to speak of when you have a family and you have children and you know like that in the the festivals and and um the beauty and the culture the beauty and the music and in the you know in the kirtan etc the beauty and the temple worship like all these things have a very wide appeal i find but aside from that i appreciate what you're saying and my point is this that and i think we discussed this when we spoke last time too let's separate the esoteric aspect of bhakti let's let's let's let's take that and let's and i'll i'll say krishna as a person you know bhagavan let's categorize that as the esoteric aspect of yoga and and and we'll put that there for people that want it you know when you're ready for that if you feel you're fit we're going to present that to you in context of the more i don't know if practical is the right word or more tangible the the more rational let's say rational um side of not that i'm saying that it's irrational but it might seem irrational to people so then let's let's this idea of for instance paramatma and the idea of becoming the sage of steady mind let's present spirituality in in these terms right what about so much gita is about some even mindedness you know um again and again throughout the chapters so much bhagavad-gita is about samadhina you know seeing equally seeing the super soul and the soul in every living being again and again we come across this you know and so much of gita is about um you know what it's different terms used but let's say antasuka right like that happiness is within that happiness doesn't come from anything external i like to use those terms to define spirituality right that that that i i'm um no matter what the externals you know are whether there's ups or downs i realize that that's how the material world moves and and i've learned to come to terms with that and not be shaken by that you know some of them some of them yoga ucha krishna is going to say right such even-mindedness is yoga and then krishna is going to speak about you know beautiful section of the bhagavad-gitas you take about 5 18 through about 5 26 or 27 you know all three of these aspects are touched upon there you know seeing god in every living being realizing that finding all my happiness internally rather than chasing it externally you know and having an even mind under all different circumstances and then even go on to say and then one who uh goes on to like care or serve for every living being you know this is i see this is a very practical um in other words very approachable definition of spirituality amazing uh this is the state of dear moony and and now this is the key this is how i tie it all together i think i've underestimated that even though bhagavad-gita is constantly going on about it right for the religious or the esoteric and and but when i go back to the like you want to bring krishna into the picture who is dear to if if our the esoteric goal of our bhakti practice is to become dear to krishna well the gita is going to again krishna is gonna say himself you know who's dear to me one who's not envious but is a kind friend to every living entity you know one who does not think of themselves as the proprietor you know but free from false ego who is equal in both happiness and distress who is tolerant always satisfied self-controlled in you know one who who by whom no one is put into difficulty and who is not disturbed by anyone right you know this is you know trina to pee this is you know it's it's right there in the gita it's it's it's the it's vegiana it's the um it's the embodiment of knowledge of spiritual knowledge this is both universal and practical all these three points both of these are there in it exactly universal for the individual and and for for the broader society the benefits are there but but this is my point but i understand now to get to the esoteric point it's like these aren't even although these are glorious and beautiful it's not even the goal themself but this is the platform from which you can approach bhagavan right in other words if you haven't developed genuine even-mindedness genuine detachment if you can't see god and everyone you're not your mind will be in a state of disturbance you you will if you're searching for happiness externally you your mind will be disturbed and not capable of deep absorption and it's that deep absorption in krsna's name form qualities and pastimes that that that facilitate uh the the the um arising of krishna praying you know it's when we it's not just when we chant the name or when we chant the syllables of the name but it's actually when our mind is deeply absorbed in the shoulda nama right that that that um prima arises in the heart and so my idea of spirituality in my own life is is the focus on you know on these qualities uh that are given in bhagavad-gita not only because i want them to be happier in this world and not only because i think they serve society well but also because they're the key to deep um absorption in in christian's name form qualities and past times which from which one develops love for krishna wonderful in one sense we could also say this is sattva before we accomplish the sattva and uh is actually actually for most thoughtful people it is appealing yes even people who are in rajas they may they may not necessarily their idols may also be in rajas but still they appreciate sattva in general unless a person is really very heavily influenced by tamas so you know in all those verses from the 12th chapter at the end of the 12th chapter it's saying it also says one who's engaged in my service so that's there so i'm not ignoring that but he's he didn't have to say all these things you know christian didn't have to say all these things but this is what endears wonder krishna he says himself that's true that's a very emphatic chapter in fact in the sense that that section that krishna is not saying directly that one who chants my holy name the one who worships my deities is dear to me it is of course true but there is focusing on one who is you know one who is not disturbed by others or one who doesn't disturb others that's equanimity so that's straight out of p you know that's right right you know i show all respect to others i don't need any respect for myself you know i'm tolerant i'm humble that that's that's um amazing that's our you know srila bhaktivedanta he said that's our siddha pranali you know that is our our path to the perfection of krishna praying but it's appealing you know but if you stick if you stick krishna fully into the picture too early or if you don't gain the faith of someone um prior to that then they're likely to respond to it you know uh they're incapable of accepting it but if we can really present people you know knowledge of paramatma you know it indicate that again the the individual and the the universal uh benefits of it you know and the qualities that that that one who sees para mama develops all these subject qualities um we can gain their faith and then when we say but the yogis did this not just for peace itself but they did it because there's a far greater treasure okay now i'm willing to hear what is that treasure and that's bhagavan beautiful this is amazing this is quite this i mean i would say amazing and striking but can you repeat the three things one is equal even-mindedness the second these are three things i pulled out of gita but you know yes divinity equanimity and what are the third one uh antasuka happiness within inner happiness oh we are happiness yeah that's true this is so i was thinking about inner happiness also you can talk a little bit about finding meaning and purpose in life it's not just inner happiness in terms of you know remembering god and being internally happy but if we are aligned with our nature we are doing that is natural for us that also itself brings happiness in life so to find our meaning and purpose in our lives sure there's a lot that can be uh connected this way it's almost as if the the bhagavad-gita contains so many nuggets of wisdom and we just it's almost like we have we have to uh pick up or you know this idea of there are jewels which are there are sacred stones or precious stones which are which are precious for everyone but there are you can say there are also certain stones or certain things which are valued in particular traditions particular cultures so we could say that the bhagavad-gita has some truths it is like a it is like a ocean filled with jewels or a ore filled with precious substances now different people could be attracted to different substances within that ore yeah so it is for us to find okay let's be attracted to this one will just be attracting this person and then we take that and provide that and then they will be attracted to the whole ore eventually because we are connecting them to the aura ultimately but they may not themselves go into that ore so we have to take it out and show them what is there what is there in it for them yeah then they develop on their you know if the faith if they develop that faith then they want more you know let me let me read these few verses and let's think about if these would appeal to a post-modern mind okay yeah i should beginning at text 18 in the fifth chapter the humble sages by virtue of true knowledge see with equal vision a learned and gentle brahmana a cow an elephant a dog eater and an outcast those whose minds are established in sameness and equanimity have already conquered the conditions of birth and death they are flawless like brahman and thus they are already situated in brahman a person who neither rejoices upon achieving something pleasant nor laments upon obtaining something unpleasant who is self-intelligent who is unbewildered and who knows the science of god is already situated in transcendence such a liberated person is not attracted to material sense pleasure but is always in trance enjoying the pleasure within in this way the self-realized person enjoys unlimited happiness for they concentrate on the supreme an intelligent person does not take part in the sources of misery which are due to contact with the material senses such pleasures have a beginning and an end and so the wise person does not delight in them before giving up the present body if one is able to tolerate the urges of the material senses and check the forces of desire and anger they're all situated and happy in this world one whose happiness is within who's active and rejoices within and whose aim is inward is actually the perfect mystic they are liberated in the supreme and they ultimately attain the supreme those who are beyond the dualities that arise from doubts whose minds are engaged within who are always busy working for the welfare of all living beings and who are free from all sins achieve liberation in the supreme those who are free from anger and all material desires who are self-realized self-disciplined and constantly endeavoring for perfection are short liberation in the supreme in the very near future so to me like this is you know this is i don't know if you know the american word but like we call it the sweet spot you know like this is where you can really get some traction right here you know like in baseball you have cricket there but in baseball you know the bat is shaped it keeps getting like wider as it goes and there's a point near not the very end but near the end that they call the sweet spot if you hit the ball with that part of the bat it really flies so i think these kind of areas are sweet spots you know where we can appeal to that post-modern mind and if you gain someone's faith on that level they're not so deeply invested in post-modern thought that that they won't be able to to take the further steps they'll even become eager to take those further steps that's panditas is ours which 518 is something which i always talked about but yeah that whole section is so beautiful i didn't realize that's why it's you you went from five 18 to 5 26 i think i went to 527 27 yeah yeah that's oh no 526 526 yeah and twenty seven twenty eight talks about uh it's a summary of the previous next chapter that's what yoga yeah so i was thinking maybe you know these are these verses which are which are relatively non-sectarian and appealing maybe this these sections from our scriptures could be highlighted and we we could even make uh small booklets or like focus podcasts based on these themes specifically which could actually appeal to people so i think there's no one better qualified than you to do it you're prolific and actually in my guitar daily writings i have been addressing these topics but i don't uh i am not so sure whether i actually analyzed it in those terms this will very helpful for me i'll definitely work on this right um [Music] okay so do you see this as a maybe one last question here when we talk about these themes do you use the word god or use the word krishna when you're talking about or it depends on the context does the word have a negative connotation or it's not not much i think it it can um but again it's like i i'd like for with wisdom of the sages i feel like um you can kind of earn a certain uh faith in a listener that at a certain you know they become ready to hear it if they're gonna hear it within a broader context making sense so people will be more open to it but yeah i think that word can be challenging we don't always use that word a lot of times when we refer to god or rather than saying god we you know it was just uh today we came across the verse so it was cardamomooni praying to lord vishnu he's doing his meditation and then lord vishnu descends on guruda and karma muni refers to him i believe the term was ashay shamula which you know literally means like the the root of everything and um commonly will when we refer to god we'll use a term that kind of highlights this aspect right in other words why god because god is the root of everything so in other words we'll say rather than saying we will say connect with god but sometimes we'll you know or maybe even more often we'll say like connect with that design divine source that root of everything because now you're tying it into why you're not not just you know just surrender to this being but you're surrendering to this being because they are the root of all existence because when that being is attended to when that being is served you're actually serving as when you serve a root you're serving every branch and leaf and in twig and flower so that therefore we reconnect you know with with that with that ashish jamula with the the source of everything so sometimes we if we if we don't use that term we try to speak in those terms because it makes more sense of it beautiful i don't know i mean somewhat over using the word beautiful today but i'm really appreciating that it's so much is there which is in one sense overlooked yeah this is this is right here this is there's a what is that phrase in english i think hidden in plain sight okay yeah sure yeah i think we we um there there are aspects when when we become a little institutionalized we think what appeals to us appeals to everyone even like say the missionary aspect of krishna consciousness that doesn't appeal to external people so much you know um you know we're spreading this all over the world you know like they don't care they want to know like what's what does this do for my life you know is it genuine you know so many things spread around the world is that that's not you know so like or or the or the the more theological or esoteric things like well krishna's god you know that's not so appealing to someone but a lot of the stuff that we've been speaking about today i think that is our sweet spot you know yeah and and as you're saying it is hidden in plain sight it's right there paramatma come on how many how many verses mentioned paramaam are talking about paramama in the bhagavad-gita you know there's only 700 verses and again even right at the very end it's coming down to that surrender unto him surrender unto him utterly o arjuna you know uh so many places and what to speak of evil mindedness summit is just again and again and again in the gita these i understand these things is very important you know important for our own practice and uh and and they are that platform that that people find meaningful or appealing in their in their life true so should i try to summarize too or are there something always i i always enjoy your your summaries i'm not sure that i will do it so well today we did discuss a lot of topics but let's try you can always add things okay we discussed about and the relevance uh or of the bhagavatam are presenting the bhagavatam to a postmodern audience and so postmodernism has many aspects but i started by talking about three things it's experiential emphasis and then it's it's opposition to structures and it's uh it's structures in general and specifically religious structures and then its emphasis on feelings as basis for deciding things as compared to facts so i think we discussed started the first discussion structures and institutions so we don't have to be anti-institutional we don't have to be pro-institutional we can we we do rather than thinking that we are to get people to the institution we can get the best of the institution to the people and thus help them move onward in their journey uh it's not that even if you say that the western world is influenced by postmodernism it's not that people are heavily emotionally invested in it there might be some starting misconceptions and if those are addressed then they can take up the practice of bhakti so we discussed about varanasi as an institution and as a religious there are not many institutions directly mentioned in the bhagavatam but if you say an ashram is one then rather than going into the technicalities we can talk about the values what are the values that will guide particular members of society and then if we can we can present the benefits or the utility of of particular teachings then that can appeal and that can that can actually go beyond boundaries or walls that might divide or obstruct so being utilitarian it is not necessarily bad in fact it can be more unifying because somebody somebody is too theologically bound then they may it will be difficult to bring them together also so while being utilitarian it doesn't necessarily mean that uh we have to simply go into self-help because we are directly speaking based on the bhagavatam itself so then with respect to the another point about the religious structures or structures as being tools of power we discussed about how the bhagavatam repeatedly uh shows the inadequacies of the structures whether it is conceptual structures like vairagya and gyana or even institutional structures like the position of the devatas about the manawas or the position of the of the brahman but the brahmanapatni's as being more evolved more spiritually involved in the brahmanas there has been so many places like that so the hierarchy the conventional hierarchies are not rejected completely but their limitations are also sufficiently are or you could say unhesitatingly pointed out yeah and then i think the last part which so the this concept of paramatma was is something which is uh which can be uni which can be so broadly appealing so even if somebody considers krishna to be a little bit of a sectarian god but paramatma god's presence within the world within our own heart that is something which can be universally appealing and and that appeal is both in uh we talk universal and practical that we this this is not sectarian this is something which people can relate with and first it's practical in the sense that people it can change the way people act so three points you mentioned about anta sukha samathwa and did you use sanskrit word for paramount myself you can use the word divinity within a divinity within everyone else so becoming even-minded and finding happiness within so these are sections of the gita and these are also emphasized within the bhagavatam quite often and yeah so rather than rather than thinking that we have to say learn something new to attract people to to the bhakti is like we go we look at what we have itself from new eyes or based on our own experience our so you mentioned earlier a point that if we don't interact with people practically then sometimes we we we don't realize which structures need to be revised which so it's not the structure that we rejected but structures have to be revised so that they serve the purpose so that if we actually interact with people and then we can learn a lot and about how to present your experiences about how this lady who her husband passed away after multiple surgeries and how the bhagavad gita he hasn't passed away he hasn't passed away fortunately oh sorry sorry he's still alive multiple surgeries okay you imagine i had an accident okay you had an accident and multiple surgeries but this has helped to cope with that so where we can show how spiritual wisdom meets human needs that's where it can transform and within the bhagavatam there are so we if we consider the bhagavatam to be like a wellspring of wisdom of mine so based on our understanding of interacting with people are understanding the bhagavatam we can find out those nuggets within the bhagavatam which are going to appeal to different people and serve their needs and so overall present the exoteric before the esoteric so we don't deny the esoteric but the exoteric in terms of the satwik values which everybody can appreciate which can add quality add value to everybody's lives so when they get that then they naturally become eager to explore further also so any other points you'd like to add no that was that was a great summary for thank you very much wonderful you know i thought i was thinking there was one story that i thought we might share today but we uh it didn't come up but you know it's it it seems like the baba tom is again and again kind of the the tales that it shares are cautionary like in other words if i want to if i want to be a sadhu the type that pleases krishna the type that has deeper insight the type that has the mind that's able to become deeply absorbed so much of it has to do with how i honor every living being and avoid uh the the dangers of of institutional thought or religious thought where wherein one becomes prone to condemning others and the bhagavatam is going to show you know like you know judah bard is condemned and then he's proved to be superior you know um richard is a demon but he's proved to be superior to the religious man you know daksa particularly daksha you know like another like the the you know the the the the the the incredibly successful and exalted religious figure you know he's he condemns narada who's superior in his devotion you know and uh he condemns shiva who appears externally to be such a um tomastic person you know and and that that leela you know the where sutti you know um takes her own life that is an incredible story it's it's maybe one of the most entertaining passages in the entire body and you know i think it takes up about four chapters but that's in that chapter like all the religious people like the you know the these high level religious leaders they're all exposed as as lacking in in the in their depth of their vision and again in this one women are the ones that turn out to be correct in the end you know like the big men spiritual leaders you know the the their their lack of they all become embarrassed and humiliated and it's the women actually you know in a in a couple of men like brahma and shiva himself that actually um that actually come out of that entire story you know like um with their with their reputation intact but i always i just want to share one thing with you and this is what i think i i read this verse and when i read it i said i think this is um maybe the funniest joke in the entire body with time it's a joke it seems to me like it's got to be a joke right where you know there's so much you know um daksha his own daughter comes to his sacrifice but he's so deeply absorbed in his his his materialistic external condemnation of her husband lord shiva that he's incapable of even welcoming his daughter with affection right that's how hardened he's become by his religion and um and you know the wife gets it no we should welcome our daughter she's not she hasn't been hardened by by religion in this way you know and um but anyway the the way that that um you know then then uh who's already in previous chapters totally condemned lord shiva you know offended him you know with horrible statements totally misunderstanding who he is totally judging him externally not understanding him internally he he goes on and further insults shiva she takes her life because she can't bear right this this woman is of such integrity that she can't bear being in a body that's related to this offender of such a great soul and so she takes her own life you know in this uh you know in in in her own self you know emulation you know she sets fire to herself like through yoga and then the whole and then all of lord shiva's very tamasic followers just make a complete mess out of everything including the cutting off of the head of daksa and then all of these religious figures they have to go to lord brahma who's the only one with a cool enough head to he's he's so deeply situated you know in in in dharma and righteousness that he recognizes you've all offended a pure devotee lord shiva you're judging him externally when actually you don't understand who he really is you need to go and apologize to him so they all go and apologize to lord shiva and um lord shiva doesn't see friends and enemies and he accepts their apology and then they begin to perform the sacrifice again uh they clean up all the mess that's been created by their institutional narrow minded external religious thought they they put everything back together and then lord vishnu at the end of the the sacrifice he appears and then every individual begins to offer prayers to lord vishnu you know lord shiva offers prayers lord brahma offers prayers daksha himself offers prayers the different sages the different priests the the wives of the priest everyone offers their prayers and then the wife of daksa offers a prayer okay and i would imagine it would be very likely that she's standing right next to daksha himself she's saying this prayer and her husband now has the head of a goat and and she this is what dr deduction's wife praised she says my dear lord it is very fortunate think of the depth of her conscience all that she's just been through and witnessed and everything but her devotion is intact you know and and her realization is intact she says to the lord it is very fortunate that you have appeared in this arena of sacrifice i offer my respectful obeisances unto you and i request that you be pleased on this occasion the sacrificial arena is not beautiful without you just as the body is not beautiful without a head and she she could have been pointing to daksha like right next to her oh god of all the things that she could have said she she says that the sacrificial arena is not beautiful without chris without vishnu just as a body is not beautiful without a head so any case that's just another example of where those that um who have status based institution you know and institutional pride they become humbled again and again and again in bhagavatam and it's always those with genuine divine love that are exalted in bhavatam and hopefully that message is is appealing to the people of it and i think it is i've i think that message is and we just need to highlight it that's all it's beautiful here maybe in the future we can go over specific pastimes and discuss you know that would be it would be too intensive but it would be wonderful to analyze some major past times i did a i've also been teaching bhagavatam applied sort of series where i am trying to look at the bhagavatam from contemporary perspectives so i i did elaborate uh series on this taksha past time i had focused more on the theme of conflict resolution but how conflicts escalate and how they can be avoided but this theme of what are the bodies say status no institution based status or pride institutional based derived that that is so true and uh in one sense the postmodern mind gets a special pleasure in seeing the in seeing the high and mighty fall that's right everybody can get everybody get a little pleasure in that but a postmodern mind delights in that yes there's so much in the world is full of it it's so true thank you wonderful discussion i so much enjoyed spending this time with you today thank you so much thank you look forward to having having you again in future also soon and i look forward to bringing you back on wisdom the sages thank you so much you | Chaitanya Charan | UCnD3dRJRtzt5bbkIxE8LVVA | 2021-08-20 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 19,199 | 103,164 |

it's it's kind of funny you know let me tell you something Aiden something else some more of Life advice for you being a horny will get you in trouble in general let's forget Diddy in his case and whatever it goes in court of law innocent guilty that's up for him he's going to work it all out but in general if you're one of them horny you know those dudes on Instagram those Indians saying boobs vagina all day life just being horny you're going to be in trouble whether you're satisfied or not yeah whether you get the girls or not because if you have too many girls you got stress too much you're gonna end up in jail for some reason or some kind of claims that to come against you or you're sitting at home all day jerking off wasting your life you need to just give up that horniness crap you know I've come to the conclusion that having sex with loads and loads of girls is pretty gay huh you should have sex to make children because children are important but if you just want to have sex with girls just put your little PE PE in and out and then finish and go yay I had sex you're pretty gay that's gay how is that I would ever have sex without the possibility of there being a child made because wait so you Andrew Tate definitely trolling he trolling man as many women he didn't knock down you he didn't probably knock down hella but you know ain't no problem he has you know but um I don't think it's gay you know it is a sin to do that you know everybody kind of do it you know there's a very small percentage of people who don't really do it but it's like um I don't know if I had to have a comment on that I would say um if you want to do it I guess do it but uh don't get trapped out here y'all don't get trapped you know what I'm saying wear your jimmies don't um you know don't try not to get no diseases anything like that but uh yeah just don't get trapped thick that Romanian penis in a girl and you're expecting to to come inside of her every time and create light first I am not Romanian I know but what I'm but okay so you you think every time you apologize I'm sorry mising me I I hate that are you are you cloned why do you care now are you soft now why do you care I want to be factually correct on this stream fine I'm sorry for Miss is being horny and I know I'm telling you this because I know you jerk off probably like 18 times little weirdo you can get rid of that horny crap instead train hard worship God make money make some kids and just calm down if everybody would calm down none of this would happen but everyone's like oh I need six that is true man you know the majority of this population of guys especially in their 20s they set they got a high ass sex drive you know and uh I ain't going to lie I got a high sex drive man you know I be want to bust down on some cheeks you know every now and then but you know I I calm down I calm down because I feel like when you when you in that lifestyle where you just want to bust down on females all day you know you are you know you are wasting a lot of energy bro a lot of times it ain't worth it it really ain't worth it especially if you down bad and you need money and you know you need to be grinding like that should not be the first priority the first priority should be okay first you know get a job and start making money you know you need that stabilization second off uh y'all need to get in the gym man I I've been in the gym I'm not going to lie to y'all you know I've been in the gym I've been uh working out and I feel I feel better I feel stronger everything man and um I just feel like everybody should uh I feel like everybody should be in the gym and you know uh life life is difficult I will say that life is difficult but at the same time it really ain't that hard all you got to do is really just get locked in it's a mindset game y'all you really just got to get locked in you got to know what you want you got to be like all right I'm going for it and uh you know there are different things that it it be the smallest things that you know it adds up to and it could get you to your goal so everything that you do every day you know you got to make sure you're locked in and you got to you got to make sure that you're doing the little things you know that adds up to the big thing the main thing so you know if you really want to be healthy and you want to look a certain way you want to look good in your clothes you want to look good at the beach in the summer have your shirt off as a man or whatever or as a as a female you want to um you know you want have big thighs big ass you know cuz I know that's what y'all be going for you know um but yeah as a man man I'm speaking for the men um if you want to look good without your shirt and all that stuff man you got to work out you got to work out and you know these diets and all that you don't really have to be strict on it um you know if you're trying to bulk or whatever like me me I'm going be honest like I only be eating like eggs oatmeal um you know I might drink a few protein shakes throughout the week maybe and uh you know I heard even creatine is good and you know make sure you eat some fruits vegetables and you know keep up with stuff like that eat some peanut butter and jelly sandwiches egg sandwiches drink chocolate milk you know stuff like that man it really ain't that hard make sure you get some good sleep but uh yeah man I'm just trying to motivate y'all a little bit for the for the ones out there who just they just beating they meat and you know um not doing anything nah man cut out the beating your meat and uh cuz I was a victim of that before where you just beat your meat and you just regret it after and then you just have loss of energy like damn why the hell did I just do that man you know so y'all got to cut that out start working out you know a strong body is a strong mind strong mind is a strong body however you want to say it but it's true man it's true and you'll feel a lot better so um yeah just kind of trying to put y'all on game so yeah two dudes like just everyone just needs to CH two dudes as an example of what you're up to I'm not a guy okay anyways Andrew Tate made a really great Point men listen up if you think with your little head instead of your big head it's going to get you into a lot of trouble just look at Diddy it will now have you guys ever wonder how you get invited to these kinds of parties my brother take it away when you hear of Diddy's parties costing around a million dollars you have to wonder how do people even get invited to these types of parties here I did a quick Google search and I found out that the way people got invites to these sick parties were based on contacts connections and even careers meaning what you did for a living you pretty much have to know someone that knew someone that knows someone and there'd be a bunch of drunk celebrities a bunch of girls a bucket loads of drugs and in this case with Diddy spending a million dollars to host this party drugs have to be bought in bucket loads we have ecstasy crap weed all types of drug you can name right it's all available at these types of parties it's just a party where you sin it's a sinful party it's not no birthday parties it's not a regular party where you cut the cape not those parties these parties are different but what are the things that even makes this party even weirder right there was exhibit a man who was Diddy's friend he talked about and experience that he had with Diddy went to um uh Florida we got invited to a a puffy party the New Year's Eve party went to the party you know all dudes yeah n it was actually a good party you know what I'm saying it was on South Beach right right so then we you know we go to

NqQbvHobE1M | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NqQbvHobE1M | 2011.05.30 - Georgetown Green Update Tour | all right it's Memorial Day and I just wanted to update the video so you guys could see all the progress that's been done on the house uh start from the outside this is meant to be compared to the video when we first moved in so you can see how much we've done there's the pooch paw there's a bunch of stuff that's not finished and cuz Jen just got home we haven't really cleaned up but I think you'll get the idea of what it's supposed to be we're mid project on painting some of this window stuff here so it looks nice but you can see we already did the front door uh Jen has done a lot of work here and is continuing to this is the rose bush I got her for Valentine's Day and so you see there's lots of buds growing on it and it's good sort of went with a gold theme here you can see that we fixed this whole door and put new hardware on it this was a disaster when we moved in but you can see now it's all nice and painted it's all cleaned up there's the doorbell the door knocker this thing was a mess when we moved in and I really I think we've done a good job of updating it so let's go in it is hot as hell here there's rajel hi rigel Mom you'll be surprised to know I have a beard right now and a mustache w't you be happy to see all that he R nothing new here you know the Shelf the entry way there's not really anything new or exciting here's this room pretty much the same as it's always been um it's a little bit of a mess but what are you GNA do rogel did not eat his breakfast today here's the exercise bike and it's on Wheels so it comes in and out as needed we just leave the towels on it cuz you always get all sweaty um I think you saw this but in the video this used to be like a like a I don't know shelves or something so we turned it into the coat closet and that's pretty good office is same as it ever was I think in the original video we were sleeping in this room but now it's just the chaotic mess that is my office there's the big TV so anyway I hear Jen upstairs this is my chin up bar which is important hi Jen I'm filming this is the Riel bath bathroom you know Minecraft creeper on the toilet you know nothing too exciting all right laundry room has had a lot of stuff done to it since we first moved in I think most of this has been shown here's our new rock Mount server and up here is sort of where I have all the server wires going in there's the switch that will stay with the house this is a phone switch even though we don't have a phone line in the house it's a phone switchboard there's the the cable TV switchboard I don't know if you can see it but that's all the different eight cable connections to the eight locations in the house um and then the Shelf wasn't here so we did that we've organized this so it's all good you know it's kind of a mess but that's now the sort of command Hub of the house all right by the way the battery on this camcorder is almost dead so we'll see I don't think in the original video that you're comparing this to we had done the carpet yet so this is all new carpet there's the slice of the grandfather clock when we viewed the house there was a grandfather clock here so we thought it was appropriate there's the doorbell um 64 different tones there's these some Art here's the little half bath right at the top of the stairs we had completely redone this I think this video has been out for a while but much nicer than the original crappy bathroom that was in here um this is cool so you can see in the dark I'm rushing a little bit cuz I think the battery is going to die all right I should have shown you these downstairs but these are the data ports we've put all over the house two TV for coax a phone and an Ethernet the house is completely wired now which is awesome it's a great selling point you know if someone wants to turn this into the living room now they have TV up here you can see this room's looking good mail from when Jen was gone all over the table uh mom you always say we don't show you the turtle there he is and there's the algae sucker and there are four little fish that have just been hanging out in there hi this is a new thing we just got that yesterday so he's happy show you the backyard Jen has been working out here all day planting so it's a wet mess so I'm not going to walk on it but the gate used to be left open by the gardeners so now it swings itself shut and that white fence is our feeble attempt at keeping rajel out of the flower bed which doesn't work at all he hops right over it kitchen not too exciting we put this in from when we started but you know the router lives up there cuz that's the central point of the house so the wireless is strong everywhere we haven't cleaned up from breakfast today so that's not too exciting I think you've seen all this before this is the pantry which we've tripled the Shelf space in it now most of the changes that are part of this video will be going up here so you can see this is new carpet on the stairs there used to be a big port hole right there which we've cleaned up Jen may be in the shower so we won't be showing you the bathroom all right you'll notice that's new this used to be right here the light used to be here and this was just a square that ended right about here now it's a full drop- down staircase I'll show you that in a minute let's look in these rooms so we've put all new doors on all the closets and all the rooms up here cuz they were a mess before as all new we put the ceiling fans in every room up here which is huge this is Jen's office you can see the data Port that we've put in every room okay then this closet it was weird it had like a it's kind of hard to explain it now now it's full of all of our clothes and stuff but it had like a shelf like right here as if a kid used to sit in here and use it like a desk and then it didn't have a closet bar so you couldn't put clothes in here so I put one of these wire guys in I think how it should be and that's good due to the lack of the closet in here we were using the guest room here as the closet room so the arm warre was all full of our stuff now guests can put their stuff in there this room has a ceiling fan too and now this closet oh data Port this closet is empty for guests so that's nice we think that's very pleasant all right now let's look at the master this bathroom we've cleaned up a little bit but but it has more work to be done so don't worry about that this is Jen unpacking a little bit I don't know where she is so the data port for this room is actually right back there behind the bed I don't know if you can see it but it's back there so that's all done that was a difficult one to do cuz I had to move the bed then this closet which was a big controversy um the top thing didn't have a full closet bar so we sort of jury rigged something together and it sagged a lot so I put this up this week one big continuous bar it goes all the way across and then this is right over the stairs and this was just an awkward space so I built this shoe rack and it fits every single shoe we own so that's very good I think that's very good it's useful my little battery indicator light is blinking so I'm going to have to hurry up and show you the big project so you can see the texture right here is a little weird but the drywall in the ceiling is crumbled it was a disaster so I had to do something so we pull it down now up here before there was a couple of random little plank boards that were down that were cracked and rotting there was no electricity no lights no nothing and there was no staircase so you come up here and you look right here you can see there's a lighted switch turn it on I don't know if you can see that but there's a a full outlet and everything and now you come up here there's a little room storage it's all been cleaned up there's lights up here here's the air handler the air handler had to be raised about 6 in so that the door can actually close under it and I did that by myself with nobody else home you see there's storage over there it's kind of hard to see but I've got a few more floorboards to put down but I keep buying lows out of wood so I can't do too much more but you can just walk right over there I mean I'm up here bare feet right now it's not insulation all over everything under this was the the wires you can see for the ceiling fans they're all properly in there all underneath this is the data wires for all those data ports I was showing you you can see where they all came up right here it was a nightmare to get them up we got the power wire and all of the data port wires and you can see we put a string in case we ever have to pull another one there's just wires going from unit to unit up here so we isolated all those our house is completely disconnected from everyone else's which is good now there's a whole bunch of storage up here I mean tons of storage look at all wood up here I've just got tons of space now which is great and it's clean um I don't know all in all it's good well I'm at the 10minute limit for a YouTube video and my battery's about to die so until then you can see down there signing off now you get to see the tour of the new house it's all good | surfrock66 | UCOGZ-tZXVPEysYm0A4WkbWg |

dssv-8GJRfA | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dssv-8GJRfA | An Introduction to Systems Science, Complexity & Dynamic Modeling: The Food System as an Example | uh the motivation for my work in this area over the past 20 to 25 years really lies in the fact that you know when it comes to uh health uh policy challenges um we're dealing with uh systems which uh are increasingly complex uh in a dynamic sound i'll define in in just a minute um and just as examples of of of many of these um but i've only shown you know a few examples we have syndemics of mutually interacting conditions for example here we work at this intersection of of cova 19 and overdose related deaths from from substance abuse on this real burden of health disparities across different socioeconomic divides or between a developing world and develop worlds distressing gaps in terms of mental health brought into sharper contrast by the pandemic we see it in the high levels of obesity which manifest in many different chronic diseases and cancers diabetes heart disease challenges associated with um with several types of of cancer that are secondary to obesity and despite a great deal of progress and understanding the mechanisms by which obesity developed we still haven't been able to really contain this this epidemic of of diabetes effectively we see it at life course impacts across from from childhood to adulthood with really long shadows cast by by early life trauma adverse childhood experiences and social determinants of health and many other areas some of them manifested by those in the room wearing masks at this very minute associated with this uh this troubling and terrible pandemic um with which we're engulfed and what all these these challenges share is that they they point to the um gnarly character and and the difficulty of of really addressing um the the policy challenges of complex systems when i use the term here i'm meaning something more than complicated having many different pieces i'm talking about systems which are in some sense dynamically complex they exhibit a set of features whereby the behavior of the whole is very different than behavior of the parts we can take the system apart and and analyze each of its pieces but still not understand the system as a whole much as you know we could understand the axle type and engine type and color and body make of every car you know along a highway but still not understand why traffic jams develop a traffic jam is a systems problem that transcends any one of its pieces any one of the vehicles or their make or their their mechanical design uh it's something that's at a higher level that transcends that um so it is with dynamically complex systems the whole is surprisingly distinct from the parts and these systems um are not merely intellectual curiosities they they really um at the heart of many of our challenges because amongst other things they react surprisingly and pervasively when we try to intervene if we poke at one place it pops out in other places it reacts to us and uh often in surprising ways that lead our policies to go astray there's siloed and limited understanding often within these systems for us to make progress in addressing um the challenges of that that are across them there's this link between cause and effect that's often delayed uh distal multifaceted and often reciprocal a causes b and b causes a um and uh they're they're often non-linear and when we combine different interventions we get very very different impacts than if we simply sum up the benefits of each intervention separately and total them and these systems are marked by a number of hallmarks they don't have time to go into but they include things like feedbacks and path dependence cases of this reciprocal causality delays non-linearities and these patterns of emergence where the what we see at a high level is just very different from at the low level there's many examples of these systems on which i work for example in the opioid epidemic or antimicrobial resistance but the thing i wanted to talk today about is is the food system um here too we we see um you know feedbacks we see um uh the occurrence of sales and unhealthy goods spurring optimization and marketing at low prices for unhealthy goods such as by stripping out the need for refrigeration from the supply chain such as optimizing the production of of long preserving goods loaded with fat and sugar content which can be sold very cheaply marketed very effectively but ultimately are very unhealthy for people and those lead to yet more sales um there's uh by contrast there of feedbacks which are positive sometimes with disparities such as our glaring in the nutrition area trying to motivate some impetus towards policy but where that policy needs judicious guidance uh there's delays um it can take a long time for consumer attitudes and knowledge about how to prepare food with new types of food to adjust um which can make it difficult for healthy foods to make inroads um and where in order to be available at cheaper more accessible levels there needs to be widespread system-wide distribution retail manufacturing investments we have diverse actors across it from the growers to the wholesalers the distributors the consumers the food pantries institutional clients and restaurants and there's real lock-in effects whereby the system can get stuck in a state such as through marketing of unhealthy foods that's very different difficult to dislodge because of the high price effectiveness of those models that is almost built into the system um and for all these reasons we've suffered policy resistance you know healthy food investments can even sometimes hear widened disparities by leading to uptake among wealthier individuals but not be uptaken by by poorer individuals and you know past contributors such as uh here shift and solutions um have tried to map out elements of the food system uh which stretches from consumers to the to the value chain that delivers food to them nested in areas of sociocultural context um in civil society but also extends the agricultural area in environmental areas that support it in a systems which have uh dizzying numbers of feedbacks and complexity associated with that i believe may has shared this visual with you um which which documents in a little bit more of a granular way the the supply chain that brings food to our to our tables every day for our consumption but which consists of linkages to a vast number of different parties and a very complex set of distribution networks and often when we're dealing with systems like this whether it's the opioid epidemic or food systems you know we feel a little bit like blind men and the elephant each of us is an expert in one part of the system the elephant's ear or its trunk or its tusk or indeed its tail each of us groping blindly and feeling that that part we've discovered the essence of the elephant we know the important part of the elephant that makes it tick but of course if we want to stop this uh this mammoth creature from trampling the crops we need to understand the elephant as a whole and recognize that each of these pieces is part of it but it's interconnected with the rest and if we ignore the rest of it we're sure to get trampled ourselves um the challenges here are particularly um particularly uh difficult in the area in two areas that'll broadly characterize the need to explain and the need to intervene in the explanation area there's some obvious and seemingly simple problems you know does the evidence support my hypothesis about what's going on there about why we're not seeing uptake of of say healthy foods promoted by wic the women infants and children program in california and some of the poorest neighborhoods or where we want to understand where's this likely to go next or what's driving these patterns that we see and during the covet 19 epidemic we've seen you know policy makers with no previous exposure to modeling trying to grapple with this dizzying complexity of interpreting different time series um here are hospitalizations and new cases a number of tests and test positivity and number in icu the intensive care units etc over time and even if you just look at two of them like cases and test volumes what you see is a very complex story there's reciprocal causality new cases who present for care come to a hospital for care drive the need for tests to test them to see if they're infected with cova-19 at the same time if we set up drive-through testing sites or or we do door-to-door screening for an area of of particular at-risk individuals for for coca-19 uh positivity then we're having tests that drive cases so there's reciprocal causality that requires us to look at these as more than solitudes they are somehow pointing us to an underlying system each of them whispers of some particular aspect of it each of them is a different face of the underlying janus um and you know if you look at the history of infectious diseases this is an area where observers noted as early as the 18 the 1700s you know some of the the really unusual patterns that beg for explanation whether it's the cycles of childhood infectious disease uh in england and wales or over here in north america these were patterns to be explained and we see it to this day um even in pertussis for example where waning weights of immunity are present um in in infectious diseases like chlamydia sexually transmitted disease there are huge disparities in uh across different areas of the population that concentrate it in some of the most vulnerable populations and all of these patterns you know raise quandaries to us if we're trying to understand what's driving these patterns and we have a set of empirical observations of these sort how are we to make sense of whether they're supportive of or or um you know pushing back against our hypotheses undercutting our hypotheses it's really challenging when we're exploring this in our head alone because we're not quite sure how all these things add up and relate to uh the underlying situation but there's an even bigger challenge that we've all faced as a society and as a world and needing to intervene here we have not only a challenge of making sense of patterns from a system where we're the observer we're trying to interfere with it we're trying to bend the curve we're trying to improve it for the better you know turn the dial and we have questions like where to best intervene how soon you know in the in areas like uh the excuse me the food system you know do we intervene to to build consumer awareness and knowledge on healthy um healthy foods uh do we focus on the growers in in promoting you know the the uh the growth of fresh fruits and vegetables uh do we focus on distributors and and availability of refrigeration etc and on the implementation science side how do we scale up uh how soon should i see effects how to make it sustainably uh sustainable from a financial standpoint so here we're trying to intervene on different areas of the system and we want to understand what effects will be most salutary how soon will we see them in the context of this broader system um and you know when the in the area of uh of of healthy foods we have this whole laundry list a whole menu of different options you know um uh cash value vouchers such as are distributed by the wic program should we promote healthy cooking classes um or elevating nutrition standards and child care and school menus another thing i've been involved in um you know should we subsidize community-supported agriculture and community gardens or or help underwrite farmers markets through uh the provision of amenities for them or should we regulate unhealthy food production and its promotion to children um we have all these different options which intervene in different areas and we want to know you know what will give the biggest bang for the buck what will offer the greatest the greatest gains and and how how quickly can i can i really make a difference in some of our poorest neighborhoods in short where do we invest our limited resources for action the challenges here take the challenges that i talked about earlier toward a whole nother level because not only do we have a an underlying system that we're theorizing about but we want to achieve some desired outcomes that involve modifying that system through policies or public health orders or our new interventions and it's really challenging uh to intervene in the system in a way that achieves our outcomes and sometimes we intervene and see the opposite of what we're seeking um all of this means real challenges um we have misperceptions unanticipated responses policy resistant we we invest and we just don't see the results that we expect we have difficulties learning from our experience because it's not clear what was driving it coordinating with others planning effectively and designing a healthier future for everyone in short we have a systems problem the problem is not in any one piece or our knowledge of the piece it's how they all fit together how they all combine to the outcomes and if we have a system that's misbalanced between like acute care here on the left uh over resourced in public health here on the right um we're sure to go in circles um or like king canute of old in england we may be trying to order back the tide working against the nature of things instead of with it and we end up wasting a lot of resources that are precious for things that just won't work like shouting at the tide to go back worse yet we may end up in blowback where we trigger a set of changes which come back and hit a smack in the side of our head so where we subsidize healthy foods only to find it widens the nutritional disparities we invest in health food subsidies for retailers but because of the high capital costs associated with things like refrigeration the ongoing capital expenses the capital expenses and ongoing operational expenses it can be difficult for them to to make it sustainable um uh we we invest uh in an aggressive uh interventions but we end it too early to really see the effects of a system adjusting to our changes um and uh you know we we're working against the system which is optimized to distribute at low cost and high profit margins foods that are unhealthy so what does this all have to do with the focus of the talk the so-called vaunted system science well system science or sometimes called complexity science is the science of the whole it's all about making sense of these gnarly intertangled systems and it it's designed and it's been pursued for decades to help us visualize understand and reason about these systems to test our understanding these systems with evidence and there's many tools in this toolbox that my group pursues as well as many others but a central one is the use of what uh will be termed dynamic models it goes by many names uh general names like mechanistic models or mathematical models you also hear by very particular names of sub methods within it agent-based modeling or system dynamics modeling or discrete event simulation and others and these models weave together some representation of what we think might be going on out there in a way that is operational it's it's kind of a theory in a way that we can say what if for it what if this were the case what would we expect to see and by representing how things in the world might work these models can serve as kind of these thinking tools they can they don't tell us what is the case but they help more quickly identify if our thinking is off base more quickly root out misunderstandings or impossibilities to test our hypotheses against the crucible of of uh logical consistency and the empirical evidence so a lot of fancy words here but these simulation models can be viewed as as these dynamic hypotheses concerning what's going on in the world dynamic because we can run them over time we can see their behavior over time and they depict interactions not just of one but of many pieces all across the system and they're designed to help us look at counter factuals things that have never been observed yet where there ain't no data because it hasn't happened yet and there's many many ways of building these models in particular i uttered some of their names earlier um but they all share this feature of of rep trying to represent in some mathematical form what's going on out there in the world and often they start in a semi-quantitative form that welcomes input by people from all across different disciplines and then move towards a more quantitative formation now these models serve many uses and i won't dwell on this slide because i'm going to talk about several of them but some of the most important are asking what-if questions um and evaluating benefits of restructuring a system like the food system or understanding trends but an even more basic element is to to make explicit our thinking to put it out there in the clear light of day so it can be critiqued and refined and advanced by others and so that we can aid our learning from evidence more quickly um these models are designed to be work with traditional tools um the types of techniques you're learning in epidemiology and and biostatistics work hand in glove with these sorts of models to deliver uh deliver benefit the types of data you can collect about the food system serve as pieces of nuggets of gold to feed into our systems i'd like to think of these models as maps and um and if it seems like a stretch let me humor me by by hearing me out on this so models like maps are simplification of a very complex world maps uh are useful because they they hide so many real world details that are distracting to our particular purpose if we want to bike across la we'd be advised to use a very different map than if we want to take public transit across la and a very different map yet from if we want to drive or even walk across la each of these would be different maps and yet each of them would would hide certain details and bring certain ones forward and so it is with models or models hide many details about the world and and just like with maps it's it's that hiding of details that makes them useful with a map you can stick it on your phone or or stick it in your back pocket if you don't have a phone um with models we can run them um we hide many details but they're specific to purpose and and what our purpose is will determine what what details we hide um so why do i model i i model to learn more effectively about the worlds one thing is to make my assumptions explicit i put them down in a form that puts them out there in the clear light of day and lets others say you missed a link people from very different background people have never touched a computer um can critique my assumptions with a little bit of guidance this is called a causal loop diagram put these out there and people point out wait you're missing some interaction between say nutrition and poverty or between stigmatization and dysphoria not everything goes through you know employability and poverty i can get feedback by taking out of my head and making it explicit this is something for the food system this from a wonderful dissertation by derek chan at mcgill university that i'd recommend to anyone interested in the food system um and you know he characterizes in a a variant of the causal diagram called the system structure diagram um uh how for example there are feedbacks involving you know consumption with building up of marketing in that area that will build more consumption of a given category let's say healthy foods understanding of how to put in place effective infrastructure for those types of foods and how to build systems and institutions that will make it sustainable um so when it comes to things like marketing efficiency or investment in efficient refrigeration or distribution for fresh fruits and vegetables or efficiency and the ability for for food banks to maintain perishable goods you know a consumption can drive the the need for innovation which can then make that sort of consumption more uh more cheaply widely affordable and more available to those uh vulnerable communities um so you can map out elements of systems and often we build these in ways that are participatory we we draw on stakeholders from the community from stakeholder experts involving the systems on to help us sort of piece together our understanding often in a very visual manual form that contributes their understanding of different areas of the system and even when we build the model system our widely used covet 19 models for example pardon me i'm just going to get it get some teeth here um we we create them in a fashion that's very visual to to make our assumptions explicit so we can go to someone who's a health scientist or someone who's a social scientist and and helped understand what the model assumptions are in a visual way and whether it's cover 19 or end stage renal disease or the challenges of opioids we'll use these sort of models to welcome critique and understanding but another reason we do them is to make our assumptions precise and testable because our models are more than pictures that show our assumptions as valuable as those are um we we can take these models and we can run them and the idea here is you may have heard a lot about cover 19 modeling within recent years um who hasn't and sometimes these models are misportrayed as a as a crystal ball of sorts far from being the case these models are better analogized to uh to a prosthetic um like a prosthetic leg um there are things that help us like a prosthesis a crutch a cane or a prosthetic leg to achieve something close to full functionality despite our our our bodily limitations um and in this case the limitations of models help us with our mental limitations they help us say do our hypotheses about what's going on the world is captured by one of these models to our assumptions is captured precisely in these models do they add up to simultaneously explain different time series we see do they all jibe with what we see from the evidence do they all are they all consistent with different lines of evidence are they consistent with expert observations from the system and as such these models help us learn more quickly by thinking through the implications of our understanding in other words if we had these things in our heads we wouldn't be able to think through what is their precise implication if we put them down in a model we're not saying this is the truth but if this were the truth what would we expect to see how does that compare with what we see from the world and that helps us debug our thinking more quickly um it helps us you know when we try to match up empirical observations with our theory helps us test to what are they consistent to what degree does one follow from the other or at least is it is it consistent with another this is the job of a dynamic model and the idea here is to look it's better to be transiently wrong by taking a stance putting it into a model and testing it than it is to be perpetually confused say i don't know what the situation is i i can't model it put something down test it out and learn from it francis bacon said it in the 1600s truth will sooner come out of error than from confusion this is the 16 1600s version of fail early fail often try something test it and you you've taken two steps forward either way if if you're if it didn't work you've learned something if it did work you've learned something either way you've failed forward or you fail forward if it didn't work you you've still you've succeeded if it if it did work and that's how you refine your thinking um so another reason is we all make decisions based on mental models um we all are operating with some model of the world typically it's tacit it's it's inside our heads we can't share it with others we we can't reason through it totally consistently it's kind of in koat and not so well formed but by taking it out of our models we can we can test it explicitly what is otherwise opaque in koat and i i leverage modeling to understand what's going on over time um i'm not going to go into this because i want to show you some models but often these models are increasingly combined with machine learning our groups at the forefront of this to re-ground them in evidence it's a bit like an mri scan where we have many lines of evidence in the world each of which sheds light on the world um and um and we can use that to kind of guess what's the underlying situation in the world right now and where's it likely to go another key thing though that we pursue is pursuing intervention effectiveness so we're here we're saying what if we intervene in a certain way what outcomes would we expect a model is designed to deal with those sort of counterfactuals we represent things in our model to ask what if questions what if this changed what if that what did and to see the consequences so we run the model with alternative assumptions and we say okay if we could reduce you know the uh the availability of unhealthy foods in child care centers and cafeterias of schools by such and such what would we expect to see in terms of childhood obesity outcomes and nutritional outcomes in future in the next 10 years and we could play that out or we could say what if we could intervene to make refrigeration more possible for non-profits offering healthy food in a shared way on how might that improve access to healthy foods even amongst the poorest strata of society so here we use these models to ask what if questions and different levels of question here require different sophistications of models some models can answer very rough questions very readily on quick models to build others require very very detailed models to pursue the question it's really a level of matching the expectation with the model um but i've talked too much here and i i just want to um i want to offer one final comment of modeling why do i model because it's as winston churchill said about democracy it's the worst of all techniques except for everything else i know um it's the least bad of the alternatives and like king canute uh if we're stuck without at least bad at the alternatives we may find ourselves invading against the tide so a few take key take home messages and i'm going to show you some models um focused on food system related issues um so addressing many practical challenges is especially hard because they exhibit these features of these complex systems systems that are not merely complicated but are also dynamically complex where the whole is different than the sum of the parts where we can understand all the world about each piece i unplugged my mic um can you still hear me okay okay well i i hear i i see uh nodding i i hope that's a good thing um so these these models um focus on complex systems so the whole is different than some of the parts and where the whole often exhibits behavior that's surprising given the parts where where if we intervene in one part piece of the system we see action across the entire system and action that often throws us off that's surprising to us it's unanticipated dynamic modeling provides us these tools in the form of these dynamic models these these models that are mechanistic in character that characterize the positive causal mechanisms to represent reason about the behavior of these systems and they these models allow us to express kind of our hypothesis about what's going on in the world in a simplified form um and and thereby test the degree to which those hypotheses are consistent with the evidence and if they are we can ask these what-if questions and try to understand why we see certain trends why we see certain patterns the models are specific to purpose how we boil down that food system map that's so big into a tractable component depends on the questions we're bringing to the table or the questions that are brought to our table by decision makers um multiple types of modeling are complementary um and these models have really strong limitations they work in conjunction with traditional techniques um and depend on those techniques but these dynamic models is an integrative tool a tools to reason about these gnarly and tangled systems maybe the least bad of the known alternatives for helping us grapple with those systems okay um so those were some prepared remarks i'd like to to walk you through two such models may will recognize the first of these models very closely um because she was involved in commissioning it um this is a model that we built um in large part made possible by may's group um but it was a group effort as good modeling projects typically are it was an interdisciplinary um one and it's set in los angeles appropriately enough um so uh within this model we depict uh a number of of different types of of um entities or or actors um there's uh this sort of overall environment um we also have depicted uh parents and parents and guardians who are nested inside households so there's households and they have guardians and they have children associated with them um the parent and guardian is responsible for um you know food procurement um for example seeking fresh fruits and vegetables um where they they seek as part of the regular shopping to obtain them and they may or may not be enrolled in in the women infants and children program here in california and when purchasing possible fresh fruits and vegetables within a given store they're going to have to make a decision whether they can they can afford a particular instance of this they have in their charge um uh children um who who need to eat as well um and they they have a number of servings they want to eat i see and um uh and okay um so uh if if if the servings are available they eat them another okay i don't know why why crying is in there but i guess it adds a little bit of of pathos to it um they're embedded in households and they interact over time with grocery stores and grocery stores are agents of significance here they're actors of significance because it's the stores that stock or do not stock fresh fruits and vegetables at different levels of affordability and much of the attention here is not just focused on the consumers who drive the sales but the stores who equally drive the sales um so the store has some situation with respect to fresh fruits and vegetable infantry um and um and with respect to they're selling it and uh they have different restocking policies um policies for setting the threshold for these and um reducing the threshold of freshness may which may cut down on the the healthiness as those fresh fruits and vegetables so we have a depiction and short of consumers and their their their little ones and uh the grocery stores and all of this is set in a familiar geographic situation now i told you these models capture dynamic hypotheses and those dynamic hypotheses are kind of writ large uh over what we've just seen with the state charts and the so-called action charts for decision making but a model is more than a set of pictures that characterize our our our hypotheses it's an operationalizable version of that so we can run it and this model is a particularly evocative characterization of the of the um uh evolution of uh health status and satisfaction within um within the la context so we have households we have uh wix stores uh of different sizes uh what are called a50 stores and on a 50 stores and very large stores and what you see here is individuals there's a bit of flashing going on the screen at times and those are individuals um heading to the store for example in order to apply their shopping needs so within the la area we're simulating the shopping going of portions of the population as they go to shop over the course of time and if we run time at just the right amount of speed you'll see people kind of heading periodically to these stores purchasing fresh fruits and vegetables and each household sort of points to the store that it's most commonly frequent um so households do shopping these stores they affect the store stocking decisions the store makes these stocking decisions which affect which households buy thing or what what goods households buy at it and periodically these these individuals need to restock their goods at home and make those decisions based on what's available at the source some of these individuals have these cash voucher um cash value vouchers which they bring to the stores to redeem for food and why would we run a model like this why would we simulate this behavior because we're interested in outcomes we're interested in outcomes what are the fruit and vegetable intakes over time associated with this population we're interested in knowing for wic related respondents versus non-wic respondents what levels of fresh fruits and vegetable intakes might we would be seeing um and we're interested in seeing you know how do those compare over time if you have cash uh voucher uh availability or um additional intervention availability just cast vouchers or no support says alone and here we have kind of a set of experiments in the model what if questions undertaken without um without risk because it's on this fake population where we say increase the cash voucher by a hundred percent we increase accessibility by 67 and we see you know what sort of patterns in purchasing among wic participants is elicited compared to the non-wick the non-wic participants so this is a model of kind of um micro uh decision making on the part of stores and consumers that's one sort of model we might use for the food system made possible through may's group um in the amazing relationship that they had with the wic population i'd like to show you another model that has a rather wider focus but is also focused on the health system excuse me excuse me on the food system i misspeak i was seconded for 13 months to the health system to uh to lead our provincial modeling and i still sometimes speak out of turn um so in this context we have a nationwide model um and this model involves um four tiers of uh of parties across the uh across the nation here we have uh suppliers those are shown in blue like this one for uh for apples this one for onions this one for wheat flour this one over here for walnuts um and we have a set of one level down from them what are called producers now producers uh are involved in uh taking those in inves and placing them in products and products for example packaging apples for a healthier case or perhaps producing macro macaroni and cheese for a not so healthy uh for not so healthy case or onion rings um which also despite some um trumpero regulations do not count as a fresh fruit and vegetable and an apple pie some of these apples make their way to the consumers but some turn get turned into apple pie and some of the um some of the cheese gets turned into mac and cheese etc so here we have those two levels suppliers these might be called manufacturers or producers we also have distributors and distributors play a really important role when it comes to fresh fruits and vegetables because they need refrigerated trucks to carry those fresh fruits and vegetables and those refrigerated trucks are needed on in a way that imposes expenses which load some expenses onto the fresh fruit and vegetable supplier chain and these will specialize in certain types of goods and there's ones here that specialize in refrigerated goods versus not refrigerated goods um in that of relationships with some of these uh producers and then finally uh the last two levels are there are retailers um that sell different types of goods here this one in los angeles selling apple pie or this one in san diego selling onion rings um uh but also um they have consumers which are purchasing at different levels and a model like this can help us understand the system-wide consequences of changes in consumer demand and the need to reorient the system across all these different levels to really make possible efficient accessible cheap and and affordable food to all segments of society so this is a model that uses many levels of the supply chain to capture system-wide effects germane to um to healthy eating so i'm going to stop there um and we'll see if we could you know use any uh closing minutes that remain to uh to answer any questions or to | Nathaniel Osgood | UCWew1nT03GtKj_PbiLnPQgw | 2021-10-13 |

buGnDoSDN-Y | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=buGnDoSDN-Y | Home Cooked Sliced Deli-Style Roast Beef For Sandwiches. No Preservatives! | okay so here we're going to show you how to cook roast beef just like you get at the deli i was at the deli one day and i said what kind of beef do you use to make your roast beef the guy says we use london broil so i said okay so what i did was i went out and i bought a a six pound piece and i cut it into six different pieces of one pound each um so we're going to show everybody how to cook it so you got your london broil over there i like to take a little garlic and put some garlic inside the meat you put a little oil in the pan a little bit of butter get it nice and hot and we'll be back so now what we have to do you have to take this out of the refrigerator and leave it out for about an hour and then once you do that then you have to dry it off because as it warms up i guess there's too much moisture on it so you pat it dry and then we're gonna stick some garlic inside the london broil okay so now what we're doing is we're gonna make a few cuts here to stick the garlic inside the meat kind of gives it some flavor stick that garlic right in there nice and deep the next step will be seasoning and we'll be back okay we're back and what we're going to use is montreal steak seasoning and there you go she's going to season that up for us then you have to rub it in you have to do the sides also don't forget to do the sides this is what gives the meat a lot of flavor and there you have it we'll be back okay the pot is nice and hot we're going to set the timer for three minutes when do you put the garlic in there okay and we're gonna end up putting some more garlic in the pan but uh we'll be back in three minutes when we get ready to flip this steak oh i forgot to mention let it set for about a minute or so and then just kind of spin it around a little bit just so it doesn't stick there you go okay the first three minutes is up stir it around a little bit get that oil on the meat you'll see how nice and brown that is already and by the way that seasoning has everything you eat in it what's it got it's got the seasoning onion garlic salt and pepper and there we go so we're doing another three minutes and then i think we're going to do the edges a little bit like a minute on each side we'll be back so here's another thing too what i want you to do is you see that oil moving we want to make sure that that oil is underneath that stake so it cooks properly because it likes to settle around the edges and uh we'll be back okay we're just gonna move it around again in the pot and by the way we're cooking this at medium and uh get that juice over there do this every once in a while we got about a minute left for the second set of three minutes so we'll be back okay six minutes is up and now what we're gonna do is we're gonna lay it on its side for about a minute you gotta roll it because they uh it's not we're basically trying to uh to sear the edges and you see how we're rolling the piece of meat so it's cooking evenly across the side see how she's using up that grease oil and butter in a little bit we're going to be adding some garlic uh into the pot for some more flavor some fresh garlic only a couple pieces okay she did that one now we're gonna do another side for another minute see how nice and brown that one edges that she just did i'm getting hungry just looking at this you basically have to do at least a minute on each each side and we actually set the timer see how we stir it around kind um and uh if you don't already know this is a cast iron hot it's really heavy it weighs about 10 pounds now we're on the third side so she's gonna do this for about a minute and we'll be back okay so we're back just finishing up on that end right there then what we're going to do is we're going to do some garlic and some butter a little piece of butter like that dirt around there we go with a good saute some garlic so you get some garlic flavor on that butter and then she's gonna spoon that juice over the london broil just like that and you'll see how she tilted the pot a little bit so all the butter was on one side you turn that over and then do it on the other side too yeah but i'd like to see we turn it over and do some butter on this side too get that garlic flavor on both sides boy that's some yummy [Music] and there you have it so we'll be back because we're gonna slice this up on our meat slicer and uh show everybody what the inside of the uh the london broil looks like after it was cooked we have to let this steak sit for about 15 minutes so it can rest but we'll be back thanks okay we're getting ready to slice the roast beef up on our new slicer and uh there's the piece of meat all done all rested ready to cut so you know i just want to let everybody know that uh when i went to the market i seen that they were asking 15 a pound for this london broil if you bought it by the slice so if you go to the deli it's 15 a pound but then i went to the butcher and it was seven dollars and fifty cents a pound so you basically save half the price by doing your own roast beef so here we go we're gonna get started here in a second hold on i'll be right back okay so here we go go ahead and uh do some slices [Music] actually i'm going to take that thing right off to there [Music] okay now you can see your brother's beef is perfect [Music] there you have it so i'm going to cut this up and i'll be back [Music] you [Music] you ready okay so here we go i just wanted to show everybody how nice and easy it lights up [Music] you gotta watch out for your fingers [Music] and you'll also notice that we're cutting against the grain just want to show you the meat you see the meat you'll see that we're cutting across the grain and that's it we'll be back okay we're back and there you have it one pound fresh sliced roast beef and it is some yummy we'll talk to you later hope you enjoyed the video please like and share thank you and have a great day bye for now | Awesome Videos |

5TDMiTBtEKo | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5TDMiTBtEKo | Alex Jones interviews Wayne Madsen January 5th 2015 2 | black and white a color film with Technicolor got Cheaper by the second season and then he explained to me about film cameras and he had film cameras and was in a photography then with my mother we went and shot some fun home movies but I liken it to that people's perspective it's like back then the world was black and white back then the world was different now we're in a different world we are lined up to have wars much bigger than World War II the stock market I don't know when it's going to die but it's all based on total fraud it can't go on forever and it's been plunged in 200 300 400 points Friday Monday and today I mean where is it right now we can put it on screen I hope it goes back up even though it's Fiat and pure garbage I'm not here cheerleading for it to fall I mean I got a family I just want good medicine private property a right to be free a right to be a father the system's trying to undermine that we're being captured we're being enslaved we're going into a system of conquest and David Knight is riding shotgun with us back at the inf4 Wars news center uh I got an interview with lisis faran and he doesn't do a lot of interviews folks especially with outside media and I got there and what I thought was the case I mean they're all daily listeners lisis farcon listens to the show basically all the time you every few days they had a computer just turn on and my show was playing while I I mean it was like it was it was over the top um people say well Lis faran he says kill the police well he said if they shoot us in the back we should you know go after the officers did it and it's incendiary and we talk about the interview doesn't mean I agree with everything he says but it's about opening a dialogue and if we get leis farakhan which he's already doing calling for cooler heads to Prevail and not to buy into this George Soros Civil War it's going to be a big big deal and the fact that a William Benny a listener a mat drudge is a listener Donald Trump's crew are listeners Trump's familiar with the show for years wouldn't call him a listener um the fact that so many prominent people generals you name it it's not about Alex Jones it's about the fact that we've got a lot more things in common than we've got indifference and the new world order did a really good job in the 80s and 90s going in taking over militias leading a lot of them making them anti-government uh uh making them all paranoid and hiding out so they could be controlled to create a narrative like there's the militias creeping around to get you when there is constitutional as George Washington and should be out in the open doing open carries like we did with the Texas land commissioner Jerry Patterson last year with, 1500 people they hated that and they voted out those illegal laws after that and we go out and March with guns you know openly when the police say they're going to arrest us I mean we do Civil Disobedience folks but we smile at the police while we do it and they smile back at us there's a few bad ones a few punks but I mean the globalists want to trick us to kill each other I don't want to hurt black people they don't want to hurt me on average if they can be wound up and tricked by George Soros they are and they're going to be set up and I mean farakhan talked about how Obama was sent to set black people up and about you know just the whole agenda it was unprecedented and I I want to out the whole 2hour interview but something this hot can't wait you know last night I was at dinner with Faron they were want to put it out quicker so we're going to go meet with them today before I leave and I guess we're just gonna I guess they're probably right we'll we'll talk to them it'll at least take a week though to get all the clips really good and coordinate and promote it with a few promo clips and things but we'll just put the whole thing out into to end I wanted to do the interview where we you talk about things historical and play Clips kind of make a documentary and we we'll do that down the road but I want to be the guy that gets the big interview that nobody else can get with the Donald Trump but he does interviews with the Matt drudge with the Lis Faron uh with the David Ike joining us tomorrow just to get people outside of the box going back to Wayne Madson here in a moment rid the shotgun with us a little bit in the next hour Wayne's got some big reports he wants to go do here in the near future that I'm not going to mention on air but they're big I'm looking at funding to decide whether we can do it because he does do things on a Sho string budget but it still taxes us but I think I'm going to probably send him on his next mission if we can really conf firm he's going be able to do the things we're looking at doing in Europe and in England but that's why it's more important than ever that you buy the books you buy the videos you buy the Hillary for prison t-shirts that are selling out is limited edition when they're gone they're gone that you get the New Year

just sitting back being in the middle of infow Wars for three plus years now David watching everything we've warned of unfolding we don't I know enjoy the fact we've been proven right I am horrified that we've been dead on except for it being worse than we thought I mean I am horrified I didn't get giddy when another highlevel source told me that no Obama is a radical wahhabist and praise to Mecca in the White House and hates America and wants to bring America down um I I didn't think oh I've got a big story oh this is great I got physically nauseous literally when I got in my car later shook some almost had to pull over and throw up because of of the sadness of the deceptions the lies what what's coming next I mean I I I I just the danger of the position we're in the responsibility we have you know it's just good people have laid down so now every weirdo crazy's taken over because they have an appetite to dominate us uh David Knight then we're going to go back to Wayne mson yeah Alex you know when you're what you're saying about uh Lewis faran I haven't seen that interview but when you're the things that you're saying sounds very much like what we've heard from Larry Pinkney who used to be with the old black pan he said they weren't a threat to the government as long as they stayed within the black community once they started reaching out and saying you know what this is a problem we all need to come together with that's when they came after them with agent provocators uh shut them down same thing by the way Faron said because he's now doing that that's interrupt he's bring up such good points he said at dinner for three hours he even let us record some of it he let me record the whole thing but I forgot to record till I asked halfway through he said they're coming to kill me because I want to bring people together and I'm going to you're right go ahead same thing with Malcolm X that that's what happened with Malcolm X he stopped looking just within the black community he started to realize hey this is a much larger issue number one number two as we've pointed out many times everyone needs to come together to to solve this problem white people need to understand they're next on the list and it's already happening to white people in a large degree they don't have the kind of close community that the black people do or that awareness that hyper awareness of the oppression but yeah it's coming to everybody and the black people need to understand they're not going to be able to turn this back unless the white community in general understands that it's their problem too so that's the the part about black lives matter that George Soros put in that is so dangerous because it compartmentalizes people it breaks them into little groups that can't do anything that's why we need to that's the New York City big city Democrat Mafia model and the Republicans play it too but I mean I I mean I literally grew up with Christian somewhat conservative parents but they were very liberal when it came to civil rights my grandfather had come back from World War II whole family were Democrats ran for County Office one on an Eisenhower ticket of uh ending you know uh uh Jim Crow and all the rest of it and and so you know I grew up never hearing racist comments never hear in fact have hearing white guilt that that we'd been oppressive and bad needed to build people up and and so that's why then here the leftist claiming I'm This Racist makes me so angry but then it wasn't until I got around Democrats and abortion people behind the scenes in New York and Chicago that the upper class black people and whites literally get off on keeping black people down and feeding on them and watching them kill each other it's sick it's disgusting and they're filth they are filth it's just like the radical feminist blaming Germans for all the raping when it's their darling radical Muslims they brought in sorry David go ahead oh yeah and we just had a quote that the crew put up there from Malcolm X I'm paraphrasing it goes if you're not careful the media is going to have you hating the people who were oppressed and loving the oppressors and that's exactly right what happened in U in in uh the German situation in Cologne they had video footage of this and they knew that this wasn't Germans you could see very clearly who was doing this they withheld that information that's why people were saying wait a minute you're covering this up they withheld it for several days before it eventually made its way out the truth eventually does come out but they wanted to hide that because they've got an agenda they realize that they can bring new people in bring people in from areas that our our uh government the European government NATO have gone in created a war in their country created hatred bring those people in from the war zone it's an organized takeover as the Hungarian the Romanian presidents have said and now the Swiss top General has told the Swiss Train get more guns they're collapsing Europe prepare for civil unrest the story is on infowars.com absolutely David let's go back to infowars.com reporter Wayne Madson report.com Wayne Madson with us 20 minutes 30 minutes the next hour Wayne thank you for riding shotgun and giving commentary today let's get into the larger destabilization because it's they're not just attacking us they're using the crisis to attack Muslims as well destabilizing them if we think we've got refugees now we already have a major civil war between Shiite and Sunni kicked off by the CIA on record quarterback by Saudi Arabia you're the expert on this but in the Middle East scores of times what's happening right now Wayne mson well what's happening is that the Turks and the Saudis are forming an alliance and uh the Turks which were always known they were always known as secular since the days of Kamal Ataturk the founder of the Turkish Republic after the fall of the Ottomans we're seeing this Alliance of wahabis Muslim Brotherhood Alliance come into play here and um and and right now you've got uh the the soury Soros was recently in aano where he met with erdogan the Turkish President Obama's uh Middle East Council uh M uh Mr erdogan the Neo Sultan of turkey uh and he he doesn't try to Stage any demonstrations against Eran even though Eran is trying to Institute Sharia law and turkey uh it's it's little baby steps now uh and and what we saw what so what did Soros do in Ukraine for example he overthrew a democratically elected president and now we've got Neo-Nazi battal fighting alongside chin Muslim terrorists fresh from the battlefield in Syria fighting Russian speaking people in eastern Ukraine and and under the under the protective umbrella of the CIA and NATO this is what Soros does uh Soros look the reason there's a reason why the last James Bond movie still has the the it's not Spectre the the villain uh is working for a group called Quantum it's no mistake that soros's hedge fund is called Quantum the the villain uh blow felt in in the last Bond movie is is is quantum basically bringing in all the past the last I guess this they're telling us it's Soros they're rubbing our talking Soros yes because the British British establishment MI6 which basically has approved every uh Bond script since the first one they always

kz9gJqDoiwg | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kz9gJqDoiwg | Dr. Dube on advancement of mask technologies & ZEN’s graphene based virucidal ink with 99% efficacy | [Music] today we have the pleasure of speaking with an expert on the front lines of covid19 so nice to have you today francis dube from zen graphene how are you hi tracy i'm great how you been well i'll tell you we're going to start by just talking i know you know covid19 it's impacted all of us let's talk about how zen graphene has been utilizing your technology to basically not only be on the front lines of cobia 19 but help us all get back to work sooner thanks tracy for that yeah we we've been working hard at this since march basically when our lab opened we've been focused on this solution to the problem how can we get better protection for our frontline workers how can we improve hvac filters and we've come up with a coding now that can be applied to masks and filter membranes to uh pretty much deactivate the copin 19 virus we've had work done on this and it's been proven at 99 plus efficacy through the impact facility which is a bsl level 3 lab in london ontario so we know it works really well we know it's got staying power because we had data at 35 days and we're going to keep uh working on that longet longevity study but we know that after 35 days this is still 99 effective at killing the covet-19 virus so we're very excited by this project uh we're looking now at uh you know other opportunities to scale up our production uh we've had uh calls from um over two dozen enterprises across the world multiple countries are interested in this um so it's uh the demand is there i mean we're in the middle of this pandemic so everybody's looking for a way to um have a leg up on this um situation we're in as a world well speaking with regards to the pandemic it was a couple years ago when i was asked to speak at a law firm at lunch and i selected graphene as the topic du jour and i started with you know how many people here know what graphene is and what it can actually do so i think this is a good opportunity to have you just step back a couple of steps and help introduce some members out there that may not understand not only what graphene is but how it can be used on the front lines of coven 19 because you've had a couple of news releases on this matter so if you just talk us through it that would be great absolutely so graphene is a nano material so what does that mean that means it's basically in the nanometer range in size if you look at the thickness of a hair the thickness is equal to about a million layers of graphene it just gives you a sense of size there so we can now take this very small particle dope it with a customized silver we call it an activated silver that we've now patented and because of its size now we can actually spray this onto polypropylene or other materials that act as filters and it now gives a protection level on this material now that when the covid virus hits it it doesn't just stay trapped on the surface where you can still rub your mask and still contaminate yourself but it actually kills or deactivates the virus wherever it comes into contact with this nano material so having a material that is that small gives us an advantage of getting into every nooks and crannies of materials uh not impede the airflow which is critical in these n95 masks and still be able to have play a really big role in deactivating the virus all right so for instance masks you can use this technology on masks how does this make them more competitive than the endless thousands of types of mass that are out there well again the current mass technologies are only meant to filter out particles so you know you get your oxygen flow and you're stopping about 95 percent of the particles of a certain size coming in through the n95 mask as an example these particle size are trapped either on the surface or inside the mask they're still active if you have a virus equivalent 19 virus on your mask you can still touch your face you can still rub it around and i see people all the time you know they're in their local grocery stores and they're readjusting their mask you know if there's cold on you on the front of your mask you can still expose yourself to it if you have a zen coating on the mask when the virus hits it deactivates the virus you can still play with your mask without as much risk to get corbin 19. so that's the transformational technology here is we're deactivating the virus right where um you know it's it's um able to interact with the virus i don't think a lot of people actually understand that so we're going to have you uh join a panel be a guest panel when we do a special on this coming up please francis hill if you'll indulge us and then can you just talk to us you know you know you were talking about your news release i'm not sure how to pronounce this graphene based pseudoink is that correct i recite a link yeah there we go there you go so if you could explain to us you've had a couple of news releases about this i i we understand i think most of us are gathering and understanding how your technology works and how these news releases can be applied to covet 19. can you tell us what we as shareholders maybe should anticipate in the next couple of months i mean you've obviously got the mask deals covered are there other technologies you're currently negotiating for that you can comment on or is that all fairly confidential at this time so again we're getting calls from around the world some people just want to be able to be our representative in their country so we're we're looking at signing you know potential uh deals and and you know giving exclusivity to certain markets um so that's exciting uh we still got some work to do on our on our end we're still going through some testing uh now at mcmaster and the uh mount sinai hospital on bacteria and fungi so we do believe our product is actually biocidal not just virus so we want to keep building the science around this product so we're going through that right now uh and we're also at the same time scaling up our opportunities um in our facility we'll have some news on that shortly and um yeah basically right now the world's our oyster there's not a lot of companies that have a product like ours as far as i know we're pretty much the only one the amount of companies trying to get a niche in the marketplace for their mask there's a ton of those and having an advantage like having a virus agent on their mask is something that's very attractive it's a marketing advantage to them so we're really being sought out here by a lot of different companies around the world literally well thank you so much for joining us francis we look forward to seeing what you guys announced next thank you so much the next few months should be very exciting | InvestorCoffee | UCTAJpGxZWbiV9psQA5WATVg | 2020-10-14 |

octopuses because the American Association for pies and custards got really mad at them Oh [ __ ] big pie yeah big pie big we're not talking about we're not talking about 3.14 Pirates know about the delectable delicious desserts that are made with the crusts and fruit fillings for sure which believe me I don't I'm not I'm not a I'm not a I'm not up with big pie you know putting putting too much sugar in there getting everybody diabetes down with piee I'm don't you know me yeah you know me Wow we're intellectual this morning we're always intellectual dust [ __ ] yep intellectual AF so yeah dude yeah yeah so what's that man you had a busy weekend you got some yeah it's a family in town when he has my kids birthdays and Oh tell me more about trampoline parks oh my gosh dun dun dun so I'm so sore right now so sore like my entire body I was actually made a meme and Senate everybody I was like a dude in a full-body cast and it was like how you feel after you take the kids to the trampoline park and jump around like you're an excited 15 year old for two hours it was I had so much fun there's one here in Nashville called altitude shout-out if you want to get sued but they so on this was on do they just play that [ __ ] the Van Halen song jump over and over over and over again the entire time yeah and then so that Monday on weekdays they have this thing called toddler time so it's like 295 well my son still to was till technically two so he was free but we had like a six-year-old and I'm for adults we can't doesn't turn 3 in like a day or something yeah tomorrow ah but so it was tuned under free and then it was 295 for the for the adults for their guardians quote-unquote so it was like 2 dollars and 95 cents yeah yeah oh geez for from 10 to 1 so I'm like 3 hours holy crap that's great you know like if I yeah that's a that's a very affordable like actually during the prime hours it can get pretty expensive was like 16 bucks could be in there but dude it was so much fun that was like there was like a little mini economically reasonable fun time that's right there was like this ninja ninja course like we released the American Ninja Warrior can ninja warrior and they're like over a foam pit and there was like the little ramp thing that you have to like run up jump like they'd like kind of ramps up straight and then you have to grab on and pull yourself up by the way I'm gonna have that song stuck in my head all day long the way I'm gonna have that [ __ ] song stuck in my course you are whoo there was like trampoline dunk stations like basketball dunking there was a trampoline extreme what do you call it dodge ball arena there was like one of those like type walking pugilist things we like hit each other with with battering rams standing on top of a kind of thing or that does sound like a lot of fun yeah dude it's so much fun and then there was like the big like circus [ __ ] trampolines where you could like jump super high and like try to jump up to this wall you know that you see those videos of the guys like jumping off and doing the flips and then jumping back up to the station they were on like eight feet oh yeah yeah there was all kinds of stuff and it's it's fun for the entire family oh yeah but I'm sore do you like every muscle my body is like yelling at me going what the hell dude well it's I feel like it's one of those exercises where you actually do exert a lot of energy and use a lot of muscles oh yeah all the stable have so much fun and I feel like the trampoline kind of removes some of the like you don't notice how like how much you're doing or how it's kind of like swimming where you're floating so you're not really like you're not really feeling the weight of your body you're floating utilizing a lot of different muscles that you don't usually do right and the water is cool so you're not getting like Khattar sweaty if even if you are yourself well I believe me the first ten minutes like my lungs were burning and I was sweating uncontrollably but then what sucks too is when you like jumping you're like well go too high and then you jump and start walking on on hard ground you're like wow this sucks yeah it's like so used to like you know minimal input and large output from the springs from the trampoline I'm like oh and then getting it out of a foam pit is not fun at all is that like a like a pit with a bunch of like pieces of foam yeah it's like they're like six or eight inch cubes okay and that's like it's a four foot four foot deep pit that looks like a full of [ __ ] yeah and that's sitting that's sitting on top of kind of a trampoline type material too so when you jump in you can see the whole thing can go boom but it's super L that's kind of yeah yeah it's a lot of fun that's like it's so much fun so if there's one in your area I definitely guarantee you if you don't have kids just go it's good date place you know in front of people if you go by yourself go like early in the day when there's not a lot of people there because otherwise I'll just seem really creepy ya know he's just walking be like hey I'm training for the Olympics I'm training for the trampoline Jim NAT no no there was like there was there was actually a couple of small like teenage girls that with their coaches slash dads I don't know that we're like doing oh alright rockin jump San Diego there's uptown jungle fun park and there's skyzone trampoline park yeah the first of the the last one of those I think would probably be your winner because I think that jungle thing is maybe have like a ropes course too or something like that I don't know I have not been to anyone this was just this is called altitude so I'm sure there's a ton of different franchises though the same thing food but awesome awesome awesome time can'tcan't I was literally like oh we're gonna keep going back I was doing like flips into the foam pit and yeah I was cool maybe I'll maybe we'll put up some video I have some video put up on the website or something like that or at least find some stills and put a picture on our Instagram there you go don't don't do although we don't really have an Instagram yet because this is about time this episode goes out we like yes oh [ __ ] Subic um so yeah dude what about you it's new what's new no not much [ __ ] work work work work in [ __ ] continuously binging hot ones oh one YouTube series but I can't stop watching it I have yet to have yet to dip in yet oh you haven't watched any of it no I have watched any of it do you not know what like I mean I don't wanna say I don't have time but I just it's there's somewhere between like 10 and 30 minutes yeah so watch a short one yeah let's see that's what podcast before cuz I can do it while I'm yeah I know I know while I'm doing other things don't get me wrong I'm not like super productive or anything but yeah so hot what it's good it's it's you have we talked about hot ones yet on this I don't think so for the listeners describe what hot ones is so hot ones is a YouTube show it's on a channel called first we feast they have a couple different shows are not a couple they have a few different shows on there and it's basically this dude Sean Evans interviewing celebrities while they eat ten hot wings and each hot wing has a different hot sauce on it and they get progressively hotter starting around like sriracha hot somewhere around you know sub 1000 units are hot right right right and throughout the seasons they've kind of they change sauces every season but they maintain kind of a Scoville unit stepping system well yeah but it's gotten a lot worse because for a while I think they're hot asleep and hilarious kinda yeah and so like the the I've actually started they've actually teamed up with some different like people who make sauces or make actually make peppers so they they have a sauce that has a couple of different versions but a few seasons ago they made this sauce their last sauce and he's the guy who invented the Carolina Reaper which for a long time was the hottest pepper in the world Jimmy Scoville units somewhere around slightly shy of two million so in for comparison for everybody you know I think it's like 800 okay so you know you could get all opinion town but to two million Scoville units that's just like ins yeah I think a habanero which most people would think is pretty hot is like 80,000 and yeah absolutely I feel like I had a thousand you just start having like you know hot well it's interesting man because there's two ways to make hot sauce like you can use the actual peppers because pet like the good pepper which I don't think jalapeno is but like a habanero I think is a good pepper because it has a lot of good flavor but it's also hot as [ __ ] yeah so if you use the actual pepper then you get flavor and heat but a lot of a lot of those sauces that are more like novelty like just like that you would buy just to I don't know yeah them all a lot of the [ __ ] ridiculously hot hot sauces they just use the extract yeah at that point you just get [ __ ] heat with no flavor okay so I guess a habanero has between a hundred thousand and three hundred and fifty thousand Scoville units okay so still way way short of some people are probably familiar with a ghost pepper boo and the ghost pepper has I think a million roughly okay and then so anyway so Carolina Reaper has it's probably about twice as hot as man is twice as hot ish as a ghost pepper it was kind of the new hot thing huh pun and anyways the same guy invented this new pepper called pepper X and apparently it has a it's 20 times as long in Carolina Reaper like at what point of these units start like offering people like okay this is too hot my body's shutting down see ya so there's an episode on there with adam richman remember the guy that yeah yeah yeah man versus food yeah he was telling a story how one of his challenges early on was a hot wing challenge and these Baker Steak and lube or something like that I think a prize so they had a a bottle of ghost pepper extract so just as a basically [ __ ] pepper spray the capsaicin yeah yeah so they they dumped a whole bottle on the bowl of wings and I think he I think he finished it but I think it was a hospital like he was died like I was in say like when your stomach start to like bleed and like your song it's just like you know well he's like his tongue swelled up and he could barely breathe and he was in the fetal position yeah it sounds like a fun challenge for awhile yeah photo on a wall and a t-shirt yeah what point I don't know man but anyways the point of that so this guy who invented pepper acts he they teamed with him he made a sauce that's like a little over two million Scoville units called the last dab so that's where the show ends so that's the last wing so the cool thing is by the time you get to this sort of like hotter hot sauces so kind of like the back half like six seven eight nine ten stuff to gets stuff gets pretty gnarly but it's kind of cool because you know these these celebrities and he asks the questions he asks are amazing their research is on point so the interviews are actually really good and then by the time people start to get kind of uncomfortable I feel like they're more genuine than you'd see them on like Colbert or [ __ ] yeah oh yeah they're not as rehearse because they have like you know their brain is melting well they're in survival mode and they're yeah straight it's like yeah it's all it almost sounds like a form of like military torture like do you work for one wing the last wing is like you know where are the weapons of mass destruction over there over there just get that back up oh yeah who was it for I think was Wanda Sykes she's like oh my god she's like now I get why you guys do this she's like III I'll tell you whatever she's like I'll just I'm gonna start I'm gonna start a I'm just gonna start the things I didn't even do she's yeah I [ __ ] Kevin Hart what yeah anyways it's a fun it's a fun show it's kind of well I might have to got a lot of find go find people that you like the Aubrey Plaza episode is really funny she's a lady she ends up she snorts milk what oh because that's what diffuses the heat yeah yeah I mean it's I think at some point it's whatever like I think it helps a little bit but what's what's your what's your race yeah once you're in the [ __ ] zone like once you're in the [ __ ] war zone I don't think I don't even think milk is gonna do much yeah probably not probably not yeah yeah so anyways yeah dude so what do you think bear ever made a hot sauce well they they uh they did they did make mustard yes for the Germans you know which is interesting because apparently and I don't know I know this from a while back apparently the process making mustard and the process making mustard gas are the same process it just has to do with however long you whatever you do to it I don't know I don't know the really so mustard gas is actually like made with mustard seeds yes Wow huh yeah interesting uh-huh delicious that'd be funny it's like you know you go to gas somebody and like the acquisitions guy for the army like red mustard and I didn't see gas so like you know you go to gas whoever it's just their soldiers dumping mustard on the yeah so they're like yeah so the [ __ ] the smoke bomb or whatever that you throw out just yeah just blows up and like French's yellow mustard just explained everywhere the kids come running up with like hotdogs they're like oh thanks America that might be a good then I'd be a good little a little video you could make yeah mustard gas French's French's mustard gas or like a an aerosol mustard it's like spray sunscreen but it's a it's mustard you Bad's I think I think we have a million dollar idea here I think so too man yeah you could just spray it you know in case you want to taste or smell like mustard I mean apparently mustard is an amazing sunscreen to really know oh okay [Laughter] apparently mustard has a bunch of what does it vitamin potassium maybe I think it's potassium yeah well and it's it's an excellent condiment for those who are looking for flavor and not a lot of calories or carbs or anything I mean it's like it's like the go-to condiment for people and keto stuff like that you know I don't really like I don't really like your standard yellow mustard really I don't love it no I don't I think it's really good on a corndog it's alright I mean I put some but no but like that that like deli mustard or like the you know do you like that with the mustard peppercorns and yeah with all the [ __ ] chatter and yeah what do you call it horseradish and yeah I love horseradish did I would just chew on a horseradish root so yeah I think we were attempting to do a transition there yeah you know everything else we do it's a train wreck but yeah so um the so go for it know you can do that previously because you have probably have better more concise we've covered so god damn yeah so much so this is kind of the third Lord of the Rings film here where this probably episode would be a little bit more juicy a little bit more you know scandalous we're talking about like reparations and payouts and that evil stuff that the company is dot and and yeah hidden and all the stuff and and then we're just kids just gonna be gone like guys are so saying yeah I'm done and then and then we'll leave you to your to your own research and or you could just not keep going and you know there you go I mean we've we have covered a lot so bear like any other major you know multi-billion dollar corporation they're not to make money obviously but they you know I've introduced a number of really sort of benchmark products for the world aspirin and we're a couple the other ones Tim phenobarbital you know Barbra tall which you probably don't know but you've probably it's a cream contract their epilepsy and a little drug called heroin that apparently used to be a pharmaceutical you know an addictive substitute for morphine yeah good job good job they really did their nailed they're there they were a chemical Carter they are a chemical company to you and they've made stuff like roundup we're glice of fate based herbicides insists we really need to turn that into something last episode in my amazing linguistic skills I read misread insecticide and came up as incest aside which we then turned into a product to where if you have incestual siblings you could spray it on them after hitting them at the just if you just happen to see some people that may be related yes I'm sorry yeah and some way related we don't need to get into it yeah I mean this if you can't keep it in your pants keep it in your family yeah sponsored by Game of Thrones and Boardwalk Empire or the Royals or you know whoever oh yeah Jesus Christ oh it's funny cause it's true oh man keep the bloodline going so yeah so as you can imagine a company that has all these different products some of which are controversial they have encountered quite a bit of litigation yeah covered there's gonna be some collateral damage and there yeah it's gonna leave a large wake yeah so um one of the things Jamie just mentioned was round up it's a it's a glyphosate glyphosate based weed killer well this is this is this was after cuz roundup was a monsanto company so they wired they acquired this this [ __ ] shitstorm but I mean they already knew about it when this their acquisition happens so it is what it is so in 2018 two months after their acquisition of Monsanto a u.s. jury ordered Monsanto to pay 289 Monsanto which was already bathtime 289 million dollars to a school grounds keeper who claimed that his non-hodgkins lymphoma was caused by regularly using roundup and when this happened bears stock price actually dropped by like 14 percent which 14 billion in mark market cap that's what's raise e billion in market cap and I think their Mahr I think we last up so we cars I think their market cap was so around 65 billion so yeah I mean that's a pretty big hit dude well 65 billion was the the number of the acquisition that they bought Monsanto for that is correct yeah so I could imagine I can imagine the actual market capping almost twice that right I mean if you think about it yeah I think that I think the numbers I was looking at were from like 2017 so got to that I don't know goddamn company I mean it's not it's billions you know yes but that was one of 87,000 similar lawsuits ah the name of the church forks huh apparently dude yeah I'm sure you guys have probably heard about this because yeah yeah I've been quiet general consensus among national regulatory agencies and the European Union is that labeled usage of the herbicide poses no carcinogenic or geno toxic risk to humans that's a label usage the labeled usage so that's of course that's the you know description that bear wants you to well there but as we've covered you they're really good at this [ __ ] but I know so in 2019 so like recently a USP ricourt judge and this is you probably heard about this ordered bear to pay more than 2.5 billion dollars in damages to a couple in California and apparently they were awarded one point three seven and one point one eight and a billion today that's a lot of money I mean I don't know what the damages were as far as as far as physical if they both had like cancer isn't like that which is unspeakably terrible but holy crap I mean think about that like almost one-and-a-half billion apiece per person yeah like that's a lot that's a lot of money insane and how that wasn't like you know divided up into a big group of people you always hear about these settlements where like the company you know here's here's a billion dollars give it to you know two hundred thousand people or whatever you know right alright well I mean they've they've definitely done that as well man oh and then so another example of some of this litigation was a drug called Xarelto which I'm sure you've seen on the TVs with all these drug commercials and stuff like that Bayer and Johnson & Johnson who the market is realtor together settled around twenty five thousand lawsuits on the blood thinning drug Xarelto by agreeing to distribute here's kind of what I was talking about earlier distributed excuse me agreeing to distribute 775 million to federal and state plaintiffs who said the company had not properly warned patients about possibly fatally bleeding as a result of ingest the drag so I took the pill oh my god my Bloods falling out of my nail cuticles no not really but if you cut yourself cuz there L tis a blood thinner for people with high pressure dude and again there was no admission of liability from the companies in the settlement as they noted they had prevailed in six previous trials it's [ __ ] crazy so basically it's just like here's money we didn't do anything wrong exactly another notable one was one of de vitamins in 2019 a federal jury in San Francisco actually cited with their you know six hundred million dollar class-action suit alleging that the company misinformed consumers by promoting it's one of the vitamins as supporting cardiac health vigorous immune system vigorous immune systems and boosting user energy the jury found that plaintiffs failed to prove that bear misrepresented it's one of their claims and they did not demonstrate that any of the class representatives consumers who purchased one a day relied on the so called false information as part of their behind decision so well yeah it you've read up you've read a pill bottle you know that these people back there is no this hasn't been you know checked out by the FDA and this is not used to treat any disease so it's like this seems like kind of a frivolous one to me I mean yeah I'm just gonna stand bare but know this didn't boost my immune system would give me vigorous energy I want six hundred million dollars well no you don't know you don't stand up for bear because they have plenty of bad [ __ ] they have done I did the cardiac health thing I could see though like but still ask your doctor and if you if you're like if he says yes take one a day and it'll help your heart better like there but that's a whole different thing like yeah that's a [ __ ] it's a [ __ ] vitamin dude yeah they used to say that the marketing agency that bear they probably have their own marketing department but yeah bear business services that's right we went through that mom so yeah I mean that's that's pretty much their major in litigation yes yeah that's I'm sure that's a small poorly there's you know you really there's like twenty four eighty seven hundred similar lawsuits for round up I mean we're sure dude these are just kind of the broad broad strokes examples of you know people who have not been happy with the company and don't want money well in considering this one-day thing happened in 2019 I'm guessing you had a you know some [ __ ] law firm that saw blood in the water and they were like oh we can go after them for this - oh yeah kind of well with the combined you know forces of Monsanto and bayer now it's like david going up against Goliath but you know exactly it's kind of a frightening acquisition to be perfectly honest yeah I mean well I mean yeah Monsanto was kind of the American Bear and a little bit yeah you know I would still like - the drugs yeah the the drugs and stuff like that but you know Monsanto has done a ton a ton of research on seeds and chemicals and I mean they're they're more worldly they're what they're a worldwide company as well honestly they have you know offices and plants and in a ton of countries for sure for sure man so yeah now they're so there's the big overlord of chemicals and seeds yeah and stuff so that pretty much brings us to the end of our Bayer story so now what I kind of wanted to do was just kind of go back and let's kind of cover the best wrap it up let's have our final and not really final thoughts but this'll be a long final thoughts this is a summation of I wanted to just kind of now that we've sort of told the whole story and the story was you know seeded and laced with you know lots of different atrocities so was it laced with heroin GMOs so I so yeah so I've just figured we'd kind of wrap this up by just kind of going back and summarizing some of their major atrocities you know I just flip-flop on these did sure so do you mention laced with heroin so go for it dude so bear created heroin but I've done a great job of sweeping under the rug they went they want everyone to know that they created astron but actually pushing the aspirin in exchange for pushing heroin at the time due to profits Aaron was invented by a scientist who did nothing with it then 23 years later a Bayer scientist created created it quote-unquote he was instructed to turn morphine into codeine whoa what kind of alchemy is that something less potent than morphine and instead he created something roughly 2 times more potent and dangerous man this is like a plot of a horror movie they're like oh you know I'm a chemist in France and I you know carbonated bubbles now I made champagne all right cool they lost the patent on it what as so as Espen after World War 1 in the Treaty of Versailles in 1919 heroin made illegal in the u.s. in 1924 yeah crazy yeah but you know for a good 12 years or whatever they marketed the hell out of it as a legitimate drug yeah I just I mean like this is why there are regulations I mean the food and drug whatever FDA or whoever does yeah I guess it would be the FDA right oh yeah because you know you get some and I get it they were they had they had you know intentions were to I guess help people not feel pain that's like that's totally cool and that's a good thing but it's like come on do a little more research here that's where the downside of the whole you know capitalist thing comes in it's like well we gotta make profits we're gonna my profit is like okay well let's just you know what started as something that was supposed to help people didn't really so yeah so I means be send that and the guy who allegedly created heroin for bear I think his name was his name was Felix Hoffman so that same guy so apparently he he has he gets credit as well as bear for creating aspirin but it was actually developed in 1853 by a guy named Charles Frederick Gerhardt so I guess gearheart created and didn't do anything with him we talked about this in a previous episode but he created it and didn't really do anything with it and I don't know which company he worked for or if he even worked for a company and then I get allegedly Felix Hoffman and he was there when a bear's like major scientists allegedly he recreated it from scratch without stealing gear hearts whatever hmm but it's the the the proof on that is a little bit shaky but allegedly he kind of created the same drug but he he made it a little bit safer and less bitter but again real shaky yeah so bear may have just stolen the aspirin but weren't at that allegedly we're not saying that happened but the Mia is in the pudding here you know it looks kind of shady here it's like oh yeah we're talking about Gerhart yeah okay who what we're talking out records from the [ __ ] yeah absolutely well the next comes the great phenol plot this one is interesting because either sounds like a yeah whatever keep going sorry would you say well I was gonna say this one's really interesting because it involves what's his name [ __ ] Thomas Edison Thomas Edison he asked a [ __ ] notorious [ __ ] by 1915 bear had lost the trademark on aspirin in England and other countries and England banned most German products gee I wonder why they were not only losing market share but also having trouble keeping up with production one of the main products phenol was also needed for explosives they were making in Germany that sounds like a good thing to put into your body eight to bomb and kill their enemies including the US and United Kingdom they had lost a lot of business in the US but couldn't import phenol from Germany so they needed to find it somewhere else the plot thickens but basically involved a shell corporation buying phenol from Thomas Edison who had created a factory to manufacture it exclusive not exclusively for Bayer but mainly for Bayer yeah let's see details on this year are a little bit hard to find but yeah the plan was outed by a Secret Service agent and it ruined their reputation they created a slew of other shell companies to try and avoid losing their US business in the if the u.s. entered World War one the u.s. did enter the war what's up that was supposed to say war yeah that's all right declared they declared war on Germany Baer switch control to another company that was still controlled by the German conglomerate but they were still found out and the u.s. seized their holdings and everything else which they did not regain until 1994 which is one yeah they got the the thing back for trading my back for a day were just they were just trying to play like three-card Monte yeah yeah yeah so speaking of World War one another interesting fact is that they manufactured some of the most dangerous gases during World War one if you don't know anything about like gases during World War one I think mostly [ __ ] did mostly because of the Germans but yeah gases including mustard gas chlorine gas and a bunch of other [ __ ] was heavily gases we're talking about chemical weapons here the chemical weapon yeah literally [ __ ] gas Muller so it was so bad that literally a I don't know if it was I don't know what treaty or [ __ ] world meeting it was but after World War one basically all the countries decided to hey like no matter what's going on when there's a war like no more gases when was this Geneva Convention I don't know man I was just put something like that you know like hey if if we're gonna go to where there's got to be some rules here because this chemical weapons [ __ ] is just too much right um actually produced was it originated in 1864 okay they were significantly oh and were significantly updated in 1949 after World War two so yeah I don't know if it was I don't know if the genie I don't know if it had something of the Geneva Convention or if it was just no it's like anyways yeah I mean so Carl diceberg yeah so I mean some of this was it was just horrible so and and bear was a huge [ __ ] part of that so basically near the start of World War one a guy named Carl deuce deuce Berg I'm just gonna call him douche Berg so Carl Duisburg was the bear chairman and he was one of three men commissioned by the Ministry of War in Germany with finding a use for some of the poisons byproducts from the chemicals they manufactured the team recommended the use of chlorine gas on the front lines and douche Berg was even like present for the first use of chlorine gas against people hmm and if you don't know any about chlorine gas like it's [ __ ] horrible I mean you start to suffocate and then you die hmm so wait right and the funny thing is is dude this is kind of like similar to the whole like fluoride thing because apparently chlorine gas was just some [ __ ] gas they had on hand because it was a byproduct of one of the other chemicals that they were manufacturing hmm so he's like wow he can get rid of this yeah yeah isn't cell into the fluoride a byproduct of like aluminum manufacturing no that yeah we need to do another another episode on that so after after they you know the the military commissioned the use of the chlorine gas from Bayer then they also manufactured something called phosgene gas I could be pronouncing that wrong and mustard gas I meant that what we're talking about earlier so basically over 60,000 people were killed from these gases during the war which likely could not have happened this was World War one Bayer yeah this is World War one so this is back gonna get early early nineteen hundred's yeah so yeah right well moving on to World War Two and horrible our good friends at IG Farben they were one of the first companies that bankrolled the Nazi Party and their war efforts they held 40% of the company that manufactured zyklon-b which was another another gas hissing gas what's up so what did they use zyklon-b for that was what they used to kill people in the gas chambers at Auschwitz which was one of the most prolific yeah places where they took Jewish people during World War two what they call those concentration camps yep so that was a that was not hesitate when I say this stuff cuz it's just like hard to take in it's like yeah this this company was sitting there making this stuff knowing that it went to kill tons and tons of people so Mengele Josef Mengele this guy is a character I'm going to say that very very meanly so his family makes tractors though do they yeah Mangala is one of the biggest like tractor manufacturers in Europe I think no way I think Engel & Sons during during the war he was a man who did a lot of genetic testing on people mainly with the twins he was like he was like the quintessential like he was a mad scientist anything you would see where somebody's like there's a basement full of body parts that was basically Joseph Joseph Mengele and they're granted again I'm not justifying any of his actions but the way they thought about is they were doing genetic testing to make a greater race I'm not saying that that's justified at all yeah but he was just one of the people who clearly had some fucked-up tendencies dude and he took full advantage of the opportunity could you imagine like the morals the lack of morals again it's it's a different I don't put myself in their shoes I mean I can try and understand it but it's a [ __ ] up thinking that I had a lot of physicians you know employed in these camps and [ __ ] and I'm sure some of them were just you know [ __ ] going along to get along or getting along to go along or whatever however that [ __ ] saying goes yeah I'm gonna tow the company line so that the company doesn't run over me with a train yeah yeah but he was someone who was just I mean dude he would have become it would be weird to it he would have been in probably a weird show killer if he didn't have this opportunity to write yeah utilize his uh [ __ ] up skills yeah right word well and and so he had a huge I don't wanna say crop but he had a huge base of people to to experiment on because the Germans were yeah up Jews and putting them in concentration camps so they would they would purchase Holocaust victims and experiment on them and use them for slave labor and their factories and it was just like Jesus like it's hard to talk about it's hard to wrap your head around you'd well and they you know all this stuff that they were doing killed all these people I mean it was like they've just they were just expendable so it's a man yeah I mean they killed the somewhere with six million Jews yeah somewhat does a lot of people's insane yeah Brits Fritz tear Amir was convicted and sentenced at Nuremberg then made head of the supervisory board at the company after his release so he went to trial for war crimes and I think he did how many didn't want I did a couple years right I think they sentenced through to seven I think he did too yeah and then they're like well come on come on back for you position for you corner office for you and then they publicly tried to distance themselves from the world war two atrocities of IB Farben but really didn't one bit that's where marketing comes in and you know pushing and they're different names in different the octopus of corporate structuring each tentacle leads back to its you know yeah buts good with their tentacles you know it was funny I was I was thinking I was I was into something else like a different podcast and they were talking about you know should the kids be held accountable is this yeah the sins of the father and it's like I get it a corporation is not a person or a family but that's I that's where I'm torn like do you hold modern-day bear accountable for what world war two bear did they just keep [ __ ] [ __ ] up though dude and that's the thing is that yeah it's not it's not a generational thing this is a company like if all this stuff and world like the world world one world war two stuff it's [ __ ] horrible but if it ended they're like that'd be one thing but it doesn't yeah and if they wouldn't know like you know planting trees and building wills for orphans in Africa you know man yeah maybe they would be different it's just hard to it's hard to think that you know that they've they've gone on altruistic and and yeah helping you know I don't know I I try and I try and be fair and I try to approach everything with a with a pretty level head and and you know that's why I'm always kind of doing the devil's advocate thing I mean granted killing thousands and and and millions of people I'm not saying that they did that but they were part of you know a small portion of that a large portion of that I try even try and look at it as it up from a broader picture logically and it just doesn't it doesn't add up you know no no I mean so like I mean even just what that was you know we're talking about world war two so you know fast forward like forty years and I'm just gonna I'm just gonna go I'm gonna throw some clickbait out there Bayer gave people [Laughter] so we talked about this parenthesis alleged yeah allegedly they manufactured the factor eight in factor nine drug which was for blood clotting and hemophiliacs uh and to make this drug they use donated blood which was used in the early 80s so during the beginning of the AIDS epidemic the u.s. banned the use of blood donated from prisoners IV drug users and homosexual men there was also some sterilization practices involving I think heating the blood that were in place however Bayer ignored all of these laws and ended up giving the treatment to thousands of hemophiliacs tainted with AIDS because the the the genius thing they did was they took the samples that they had all of the donated blood and they mixed it all together so even if only a few of those samples were tainted with something it got into everything so because they pulled those samples I mean when were way more drugs were infected with AIDS than just the number of donors had had it and a druggist a people's lives ended up killing thousands of people I guess in 1985 the CDC found that 74 percent of the people who took the drug were infected with HIV and and just to make matters worse they continued to market and sell the untreated blood drugs the tainted version outside the US and they said yeah it was due to certain countries being suspicious of the effectiveness of the new version of the drug the pote that after the heat treatment and stares yeah yeah this whole sterilized version of this drug I don't know about that so yeah I don't uh that one's rough geez and crazy little they were actually convicted of Medicaid fraud this is not necessarily allegedly this is convicted yeah companies have to price their drugs to Medicaid at the lowest price that's what the the medical health insurance in America for poor people yeah it's the yeah it's so yeah yeah for sure if they start selling it to a private company for less than that rate they need to notify Medicaid and reduce the rate they ignored this when brokering a deal with Kaiser for the drug cipro to avoid losing their contract to the Johnson and Johnson equivalent they rebranded the drug and gave it a different ID number to avoid being caught then did it again with their blood pressure meds they were caught and maintained they didn't not they did not break the law but pled out and paid over two hundred fifty million to the US government well at least you got deep pockets if you got deep pockets you can do anything wrong right that's crazy yeah bear still has a patent on aspirin in many countries they lost their patent and trademark on aspirin in UK obviously went over this US UK in France over hundred fifty years later they still maintain their patent and trademark on aspirin in Canada Mexico this is wasn't a part of the convictive Medicaid was it no that's right that keep going yeah over a few years later they still maintain their patent trademark on aspirin in Canada in Mexico Germany Switzerland had over 75 other countries Pure Food and Drug Act mandate that doctors use the generic name in literature and prescriptions etc wow that's interesting Bayer purposely made the generic name extremely difficult I check this out it is mono acetic acid acetic acid ester of salicylic acid did that how would you be able to read that if a doctor wrote it on a pad like I can't even read like a doctor's name when they write it on a pad yeah so they did that on purpose so that doctors would just keep writing for yeah for aspirin because it's easy huh Wow this is the Shamy Lamech dingdong expialidocious pretty much dude so so that being said they and this one is this one there's no proof of this one this one is this a very very big allegedly it's a total conspiracy but I think it's interesting so I threw it in here they're accused of spreading the Spanish flu which if you know anything about Spanish flu I believe it killed like what night's like 19 million people or something feels like it was like a vegetable like percentage of the pot of world's pop and there's nothing back in like the early 1900's so this one like we said is a huge conspiracy there's no actual proof but at the time aspirin was being used as a treatment they I don't think they understood a lot of anything back in less forest like medications and and ailments because they were using as they were prescribing aspirin for people with like like pneumonia and tuberculosis and [ __ ] so aspirin was being used as a treatment for the Spanish flu and it was maybe more for the symptoms of the sickness but I mean it is what it is so it has been speculated that many deaths this is I guess it's not so much they spread the Spanish flu but maybe that a lot of this yes it's like I guess it's been speculated that many deaths were actually from aspirin overdose as the drug was sooner at the time and doctors did not know exactly how to control dosage and no one really knew what the signs of aspirin poisoning looked like so I guess this one's more that like well again this is this you would all figure out in the drug testing mm-hmm you know they had they probably didn't have it again that's my point maybe chronologic the fact that they didn't just didn't have the technology back then to do drug test yeah you know I don't know I mean I still think they should have done more due diligence yeah yeah for sure I completely agree that's that's that's that's where we kind of you know we're I'm looking at it and it's like you know how well I mean you don't just get to be a multinational corporation by being perfect you know there's a lot of you know failure and obviously trial and error and stuff like that but at a big but there's a lot of I don't know stuff that I don't like talking about because it's maniacal and yeah be a nefarious and and all this stuff so I mean I get it we're not trying to say that you know all corporations should be good I mean look at the the history of countries and stuff like that it's it's all parts being you know it's not not everything can be you know bunnies and roses and stuff like that know for sure but at the same time like there's got to be I don't know some sort of ability that bad yeah exactly at least you at least feel sorry for what you've done I would imagine oh it admit it for sure but so Tim after doing all the research here what's your what's your take and and for being German you're German yeah my take is uh I mean they did similar things to a lot of other companies you know they were entrenched they were a big uh they were a big part of you know the the makeup and probably the the the revenue and and everything of Germany in a time when Germany did some seriously stupid [ __ ] well but and they did they've done some good things they've created some drugs that have helped people out and saved lives and stuff but man this is a [ __ ] dark ass company well it's hard to find the numbers on the good that they've done in hard numbers I'm like oh you know aspirin is safe so and it probably has acid I mean maybe there has been maybe there are some statistics out there of you know people taking baby aspirin that have saves save them from having a heart attack we're not trying to smear the company here we're just going to bring the the stuff that they're trying to suppress to the light so you can make a better decision on whether or not you want to use the products that you know just it's basically having a more informed decision like if I'm gonna go buy a product and I see a something that's made by Bayer I'm probably gonna go for the other one at this point yeah but I was I was interested in this topic I knew that they they did some I knew that there was some crazy [ __ ] in their history I I did not expect to I didn't expect this topic to be this dark to be perfectly honest yeah it went it went way deeper than I would have expected I mean I didn't I did not know that we would you know when I when we first started doing the research I didn't know that we'd be talking about [ __ ] Nazis and Holocaust and gassing people of the friend lines report one and and giving people aids I mean all allegedly of course yeah some oh yeah so yeah I mean pretty pretty dark dude yeah so I mean I my take on it is what's conspiracy and what's not I mean it doesn't really apply I guess cuz I mean some of the stuff is alleged but I mean it's all pretty much I mean everything we brought up is is is a public record so yeah like I said earlier with a company like this they company this big you know it's gonna leave a pretty pretty big wake and that wake may overturn boats and capsize smaller boats and kill people you know so it's it's it's hard I again I try and try and stay down the middle I it's just there's this big big looming shitstorm off to one side that it's hard to ignore with you there man yeah so again we're not we're not trying to you know sway your opinion in one way or the other I mean do your own research but this has been the the three-parter of this is a company of Bay Bay AG yeah gastronomic and creators of incest asides yes oh wait no that's that's us nevermind at bear we create spray that keeps your relatives from sleeping with each other [Laughter] brought to you by Game of Thrones abort okay I'm sorry if you actually got this far I'm surprised yeah there's like the one dude it's like Lee from Tenacious D we have the one fan that's like yeah awesome it's probably your mom you know so true Frick thank you for listening so I like how we said we weren't you know you know that we weren't gonna go do three-hour episodes like those conspiracy guys and then we went and did a three parter on bear which equals about three hours well but we did three one-hour episodes that's true actual meat of the thing is probably about 35 minutes apiece so you know it's it's maybe an hour and a half two hours of meat on the bone so deeper but I mean I think we gave you the facts if you want to go deeper go do the research yeah let us know what you think please comment or however you do it Facebook Instagram yeah and we'd love to hear your thoughts so like top air you'd want to hear this oh yeah yeah Wheatly mangal you had completely Mengele which would be if it were two topics we would experiment on both of them in different ways to make sure well we experiments on one leave the other one as a control and then we'd kill them both and it was and it was said just like that because if you're speaking German you're angry right right well when he was maybe just angry because he had to he had to drive tractors when he was a kid yeah and if he was spoke English she'd be like Oh today right [ __ ] I have very fond of you yes sweet well on that note insert conspiracy catchphrase if we need to come up with this I know well yes if the foo shits yeah okay I don't know I'm just running running through stuff does a bear [ __ ] in the woods and wait there's a little [ __ ] in the woods yeah just a pope wear a hat does the bear wear a funny white hat the bear yeah the bear [ __ ] in the woods that they have you ever heard the [ __ ] up those air whoa does the bear [ __ ] the woods maybe they do I mean I'm sure an input employee of bear has [ __ ] in the woods at 110 or another cool well yeah I think that's all we got yeah thanks I will stop rambling thanks friend around enjoy the rest of your days and show we'll talk to you soon you guys listen again alright Giorno [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] you [Music] | Tim Frick | UCHCxAUPtoaoagQKW7lOdZSg | 2019-08-27 | Creative Commons Attribution license

HUyPZKSeTYg | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HUyPZKSeTYg | Here's 2 U Lou Dimaggio [Part 3] | when you look back at your radio days or even your sports writing days what made that work so satisfying I think the creation part being able to take information and put it in a way that you felt helped people know what was going on and yet the freedom to do it without 22 bigger structure as long as you gave the information so i know i was always very satisfied at the end of the day and with the sports particularly because I could use metaphors and I could use descriptive language that maybe or the ordinary newspaper item wouldn't wouldn't when used and in terms of the radio it it was more satisfying from that point of view because as a New Yorker I knew that I was providing news for my city and it was very satisfying to know that you know you were able to give people news and you know you knew the news before a lot of other people do it and to be able to share that was very very good do you think there's something unique about the New York audience compared to the rest of the United States well you know the so-called New Yorker yeah I do think once his news he wants it quickly and then he wants to move on but I think he very often is the history I so street smart the the the the average New Yorker via war if you're walking the streets of New York and it would be in when I i had the 12 to eight shift wonderful radio that was 12 midnight eight more and even at midnight because the news building was on forty-second Street the taxi cabs were just flooding the streets and you say it's midnight why would it but in the city of New York you know the never sleep thing so it was always satisfying at the end of a stretch on the desk to know that you had you know you had created something and had a satisfaction of seeing it yourself and not only enough we never listened to it we never turned on the radio to see how it sounded it's kind of funny yet I'd never thought of that until we started to talk about it but I here and i have from a very good source that the woman you ultimately married listen to your work product apparently yes | right hook | UCAKQoRp1xuwltMq5nvxcfpA | 2011-08-14 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 410 | 2,056 |

H2gebi7Jmlc | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H2gebi7Jmlc | Organizational Psychologist Matt Jarman + OSE Apprenticeship | yeah yeah i mean what are what are some of the questions that that i can answer for you like do you have any reservations about the program are you are you wanting to join and and just figuring out how to make it happen most the most practical way or tell me more where you stand and sure yeah yeah um i i don't really have reservations um the only thing that might be considered reservation is just figuring out kind of what the cost would be given this kind of hybrid um set up but uh from everything i've read and and the interactions that that you know we've had over email uh it feels like something that that i have to do one way or the other you know um uh so so i feel very kind of good and confident there i do have a number of kind of smaller questions yeah so so kind of just first off kind of you know you answer this a little bit um an email but you know what what are your general thoughts in terms of kind of this kind of hybrid kind of apprenticeship where you know most of it for me would be um online remote doing you know two to three hours in the morning plus the enterprise discussions in the evening and then coming out for two and maybe a little more as i talk to my wife kind of depending on our childcare stuff it could be closer to three or more weeks you know which would be great you know them she's very supportive we both are very on board with this it's just kind of you know she works you know during the day and and our kids aren't in school so we need to kind of figure that out yeah what's the level of the only concern that i have is how much practical value you get out of the the core part which is building things right that's we can design things and that's if you want to learn to design things that's a powerful skill now you want to be also getting the hands-on skill now the two two or three weeks or so will address some of that uh i want to make sure that you get the value in terms of what exactly your goals are for this uh i mean i don't have reservations about you know like i'm i'm willing to collaborate and be open to different opportunities for osc's perspective the bigger biggest thing is is training people that can carry on the work you're doing from what i'm understanding really quite related work uh it's not oh i'm sorry let me let me just pick up sorry we've got people working here right now just real quick hey josh are you guys you guys done all right oh okay um yeah i'm actually on a call right now so i gotta you know is that um um because the next steps yeah i can't i can't do that right now unfortunately um is that can you guys um is it okay to call it a day or did you want to want to go at it a little more or well um yeah actually i gotta stick around so maybe let's let's call it a day for now uh since let me let me just check hold on let me check real quick with katarina if she she's got anything sorry i'm sorry um caterina managing a couple of things as we're right now we're building the the cd go home too so we've got a couple of people right now and we're pretty much in the middle of that so it's quite quite a busy time um but yeah yeah regarding the uh the practicalities of that just just the only thing i want to make sure like by collaborating in the program you're definitely adding value and even if it's just the design part where you don't build it if you're working on a design that's progress um if you go ahead the city go home oh yeah oh yeah mm-hmm [Applause] mm-hmm yeah and and then you know that's also a test case for how we can teach remotely because we should be able to do hybrid like the the intent of the two-week program was that you really get all like if you can study besides that and you get these two weeks you should be fully equipped as long as you're committed to it and you say yeah i want to learn this i mean the build techniques it's like you got to learn how to measure how to cut how to screw things together it's like not that hard right if you can if you can wrap your head around that conceptually okay now here's the whole build management process that's something you can get remotely completely you're an educated guy i'm sure you can you can do that so that that can definitely work and i think you mentioned so about the online courses i mean maybe one product to develop is the way to train and and uh skill people up remotely for people who can't do the physical on-site the full-time so completely viewable would be like say the two-week crash course okay a lot of people will have that time and then we offer a full support package that we develop as something you can charge for because you're spending your time and you know mixture of online materials and your time so leveraging kind of the digital slash real economy in one so i i think there's definite product to be developed around that so so right now we're doing the physical training we don't have the complete remote training package i mean we're teaching people on site but that's all being developed that's that'll be rich areas all for enterprise development so it's all consistent yeah yeah yeah yeah absolutely absolutely i mean the whole goal of the program is we are co-creating enterprise we're saying we're getting beyond this competition thing we're creating an open network like obviously like enterprises do that where they have closed consortia that do oh man this dog's gonna keep it because katerina left uh pardon but um the there's a and i think you're you're connecting quite a bit to it you're like help help me find the language because we're trying to communicate is this this is a new paradigm people and we're starting it right now you know we're doing it like what you're saying yes you're you're developing that but i teach me that we are developing that as one of the products that all of us are working on and it's it's a core product like part of the whole if you if you've seen my documents about the whole whole project is part of it is remote training it's on side it's all kinds of variants of it and the point is we're developing this whole ecology of products that are intended to go towards this distributed market substitution thing that we're so diverse uh so robust in our product base that this starts to spread and more more self-employed happy people are created around the world so what you're saying about yes you can develop this aspect absolutely that's part of the core product so it's not not in any way disaligned for what we're doing and perhaps that's an even advantage you're you know you're you're testing out the path of the remote uh the remote training which i mean that's not new we've said yes remote training is part of it initially we we conceptualized here's the turnkey build for 50k pay us 50k will appear and you have a house period okay um plus the materials and all of that and um all the other stuff plus land and utility connections that's that's the person covers it but the other package was a ten thousand dollar support package where we drop ship the materials we walk few walk you through every step we give you the the on-site two-week crash course we give you build support and remote quality control and stuff like that to support you as a talking about novices if you've never done this here's somebody to walk you hold your hand through every step of this process so at the end of it you're like oh yeah this is great and and i did it and i feel empowered and i can even start showing other people how to do that that's that's that was another product we were considering uh something around like the 10k price point of a full support package so and there's many things many many different uh kinds of things that can be the information products where the only concern is i mentioned in the email is let's try to keep the the barriers to information sharing non-existent i.e keep everything open charged in a different place because it's really important that we bring the level of society up um as one of the critical issues in society today with the big political divides the big culture wars and all that it's uh i mean from one perspective you can say that the culture wars are it's like you get a job you're a maker of some sort some trades person but unfortunately the way society is set up that's somewhat of a dead-end job because why not develop more skills to now start designing that stuff so you can either be a builder of other people's stuff or you can evolve keep evolving and growing say okay now i'm actually designing the things it's just such a much more rich empowering self-determined life um and that's that's completely the vision so we're kind of sharing that and and i'm glad so as a research psychologist that's is that is that kind of like the the field you're in i mean there is the whole and and you're mihai's student that's amazing that's that's like we're rolling with the best here and and we're now trying to integrate that okay let's talk about how we create peak experience in and how we go about our life and creation of our livelihoods i mean that's that's just amazing so it's all part of the package it's i must yeah yeah i would say it's it's just amazing like out of the woodwork we have people like you now you got the psychology side that's exactly what i'm imagining it's like we bring these crazy diverse skills into the same package because the same package requires all of that and that's how we make the best product in the world by considering all the sides that go into it yeah that is the crush yep september 1 through the 14th yeah september 1 through the 14th that's that's on the calendar absolutely no question about that no no that's that said so that's the first day the first two weeks of the summer of extreme design build are the builder crash course that month is designed to be kind of uh like i would say maybe most interesting there's the cdca home there's aquaponic greenhouse there's a printer build and then the tractor built so like four very diverse powerful things that you can do all in that same month yeah yeah yeah yeah we would do it i think we said it either i think it's eight eight am um yeah that'll be the ideal because part of the work that we do is collaborative design so that means how do we actually handle multiple people working on the same files or parts of the same files and all that so there's a skill set regarding large-scale collaboration that goes into that and we want to have people contemporaneously doing that so everyone in the program should do it at the same time because then we can show how we divide tasks and make them lighter uh by doing it from many sides with many people paralleling on it so that would be important as part of the collaborative literacy yeah yeah yeah there you go yeah yeah we wanna i mean what i'm hearing is that yeah you see the purpose but but tell me more i'll come back to this question regarding the regularity of the schedule um so the build skills are you interested in actually being the the manager like for example building houses you are you building one for yourself that will be for you are you are you seeing yourself also manage crews yeah yeah absolutely yeah no i'm i'm driving at the the thing of one like what's the most important thing that would be most satisfying that roles for you that also contributes to the whole project and i i hear your collaborative nature on it yes i mean if someone else wants to do that of course like i'm gonna be doing this because nobody else is doing it yet i i want to innovate as soon as i get more people to do what i'm trying to do right that that model so definitely learning like organizational psychology and management right entrepreneurship like movement entrepreneurship how to become powerful to make change and work as a team to do it we don't have to do it alone right yeah yeah yeah and then um as far as just your interest in um the hands-on build like building a tractor building 3d printer or whatever like i mean how interested are you in that where does that fit in your mission of organizational psychology interest and peak performance okay um yeah yeah um yeah sure yeah yeah absolutely so as far as the nonprofit tell me a little bit more of what you've done so far like where you got with um mm-hmm [Applause] mm-hmm uh-huh mm-hmm [Applause] is this space you're renting or buying but you already have a lot for the the cd go home or ah you're in an eco village right now what's sorry what's it called whitehawk ecovillage okay [Applause] okay do you have the strict building codes there in a white hawk eco village or what kind of codes do uh-huh um those kind of standard things are in place are you froze huh are you there i [Music] hmm see that you're here but i don't see regarding the cdca home too as a potential revenue model um i mean what's your thought on that because i just want to explain the logic here like i think with a home because it's such a good product everyone wants a home we actually shifted to it after covet hit we're like we're doing some of the steam camps and doing work with 3d printing and smaller stuff but we've said well how to make real impact like things that matter because we're still solving for people showing up like open source hardware has not solved for people showing up it's typically this solo warriors and uh strong leadership team and then people come and go because of the financial feedback loops they're not there and we're saying okay now i think we've got it we've got it in a bag because okay here's a product that's solid i don't think someone will refuse um it's an irresistible offer to offer a house for that could cost you uh you know 50k on top of the materials that would say 100k plus some of the other costs i mean you just can't get it i just found from another person in a local local area built contractor is charging 270 000 for a thousand square foot home things like that so we probably have a 2x advantage um over anything else the cheapest i've heard of people doing it is like 130k there's a guy called the migraine craftsman i saw him on youtube and he talks like us he's talking about affordable housing as in he could charge more but he chooses to be ethical actually i think that's that's a deliberate decision here it's like we could because we went through this we can't say oh we're actually going to charge 200k for it instead of 100k because we can but are we filtering it through our mission are we solving housing by doing that so but short story being we think we've got a revenue model that works and that's the exciting part so we can scout scale the operations basically use that to be able to fund it and then we can continue the r d and keep absorbing more people into the project that's the general framework how does that sound to you exactly i mean i'd say this is the the model that we had in mind prior and we were just thinking okay we're gonna have the home building thing we just need to figure out how to build a home so we lack the method but but but also i think one of the beauties that i see with this with the unschooling kind of community thing is is really kind of the function stacking that goes into like being able to to build a home with you know in a community you know have a community of people you know some of whom might this might not be their thing but they but they can lend a hand when it comes to you know particular parts in the build right yeah but they're not having kids of different ages when they're interested being able to have real make real contributions and learn real skills and it's it's benefiting them it's benefiting the build it's just it just all makes so much sense and then you know we really want most most unschooling type centers you know rely on tuition to fund them and we really want to have kind of you know regenerative businesses that can support us so that we don't need to rely on tuition so we can drop that to further increase accessibility and so you know this would be just a great way to have this community kind of like coming together process where we're building together you know hopefully you know some of those people you know are also getting you know you know fairly compensated for their time as well those were taking leads in that build process but then also the the non-profit is is getting some of that revenue so that we can you know you know decrease you know uh the tuition charges and stuff like that and so it's very it's exactly what we what we want to do and we've done some you know like we've got some financial models and we'll keep developing because right now it's just a guess we've got okay x hours but we're starting to reify those numbers which case we're probably like ahead of where you are because we've seen the build costs and the times and we explore the ergonomics of the build very carefully because that's after all what's going to make or break the enterprise it's about efficiency the first thing when we came out here was like yeah um learned that you know the hippies fell failed for a reason you need efficient production as part of the the package to to do a modern standard of living because very few people are going to be willing to cave up in a hole and live the minimalist lifestyle that that requires spiritual enlightenment uh but we cannot rely on that to to uh change society and therefore the effect of productivity is important but i mean a lot of people don't get that idea they're like oh yeah we're just keep messing around and um but we're saying okay let's focus our energies up make sure we've got the economic base solved so we can move on and it's not that hard and with the collaborative economics i think it's a breakthrough great for model it's just known as just nobody's practicing and that's that's where the value of transformation comes in from that yeah yeah and and yeah i totally see that and and tell me um out of curiosity just from like an affordability perspective uh i know this cd go home one was 25 you know is that still an option like is there a cheaper like smaller model or or is that not the 25k is is effectively what happened when the materials were like half the cost now if you want to go to lower than 50 you do a smaller build yeah okay so they said a thousand is for 1000 square feet is 50k if you want to start smaller you'll save accordingly the largest cost is in the utilities and like the kitchen bathroom plus utilities um and then adding on to that it's less expensive but you can do something i would say we actually haven't considered that because that's like a smaller home that would not be a mainstreamable case we're focusing on more like okay a thousand square feet is something that definitely could be mainstream like it could be a great start at home for just about anybody um whereas for the smaller we know from experience that you know we've been there we started with 144 square foot micro house and that doesn't work if you have a wife i mean i can keep up in my mud hut and i did that for like eight years or so but once you get a family or you know a partner that doesn't really work that well um but i think for 25 you can probably do half to one third or even a quarter like um we just haven't gone through the details of the economics of that but um uh i could probably guess that i mean the quarter size like two the house has built up 256 square foot modules that's the minimum you can build if you think you can start with that 256 square feet 16 by 16. i mean how much area do you have in your camper right now um where um it's eight feet well it's more like 12 feet by 39 or 40. so 12 40 yes it's like it's like 450 square feet maybe yeah so it'll be like two modules of what we have um i would just the rough guess would be like 30k and probably 25k for for 256 square feet because the first core module if you're including all the utilities in there that's the most expensive part but then if you add on it's like 5000 for any any other module that you're adding something to that effect and that's now considering off the the shelf materials which are very high right now right and part of this developing the things like the construction grade 3d printer so printing large 3d printed objects as well as sawmill and brick press so that we're all developing antenna yeah so that the brick press fascinates me and so so so is the idea that eventually that would replace much of much of the lumber and thus bring prices down well replace it's uh it's another option because what you'll find is uh it takes much more energy to build a brick home it's like each wall section of four by eight feet is like four thousand pounds it's heavy work um but we're aiming to offer that in 2022 as a turnkey option at pretty much the same or similar price point it does require some more like right now we've got the press but it's all about materials handling it's all about that so the next thing we actually still need to do the the soil mixer which mixes cement and water in the soil so you got the next um for stabilized block if you don't do stabilized block you can you can go off with the brake press like we are right now but unstabilized block means if you rain uh you're gonna melt your block unless you're protected from the rain so um but yeah that's the that's the next thing so be it's always and uh people can definitely definitely the cb would be relevant and like the only option if you don't have trees around but if you're living in northern canada you might afford wood because it's it's sustainable there so whatever is most appropriate but i'd like to shift way more to the the cb simply because it's a superior building technique uh it's just you know earthquake bullet tornado proof and all of that i mean uh solid mass so yeah that's just higher quality and when you say it's a comparable price that's because of the extra labor you're saying that goes into movement yeah that retail is cheaper but the labor's going to be higher instead of 150 pounds per module you've got a weight of about 4 000 pounds per module when i say module i mean 4x8 feet for the individual modules that go into the house so the bricks are that's solid mass that's not like not light work and it's uh right now it's pretty much legacy housing in the united states because the labor costs are high there now with our swarm build techniques we do introduce new options because we can get the collaborative build process happening and we can reverse the financial equation they're actually charging people for that experience instead of us paying for labor that you can frame that around an immersive build experience where the byproduct is you actually build a house and you've got a lot of labor to to do that so if you can frame a very interesting education program around the build that's what we've been doing that's that's the way we built this house in five days with 50 people and provide a decent education experience and then you can really start thinking about that's why we need the collaborative design the open source because you can just soup that up to like augmented reality training automation like for example just 3d printing the panels with waste plastic that's going to be a game changer in terms of cost because right now i'm devising the you know the full detailed build procedures we're working on that right now and it's like oh all you need is a digital file and throw it in the 3d printer don't worry about the build procedure the computer's got it covered so you can continuously like i was just doing like we call this stuff extreme manufacturing but one of the principles is that you can optimize forever until it's zero labor i mean that's the bottom line with modern technology you can continue optimizing until you get to zero labor and that's the fact that's a that's a reality we live within in terms of current technology so um that's where we're going to and make it not not that we not for some purpose yeah like we're going to make billions with that it's for no that translates to billions of people liberated because now the cost uh cost goes down and now people can have a chance to actually start evolving to freedom as as their choice not they don't have to make a living that's not the central preoccupation of civilization as it is now uh and which is not improving that's that's the thing we want to address the lot for everybody this is the happy use of the good ai versus evil ai here uh this is where we're actually technology for common good which a lot of people think about oh that's gonna take jobs or this or that no it's collaborate with it include include technology we're we're about collaboratively designed for a transparent and inclusive economy of abundance we include everybody we include robots we include ai uh we're not exclusive and i think philosophically speaking uh the kind of mindset the positive psychology mindset that we need is that hey there is no us or them we're all in them together and that's the kind of crew we're trying to set up within the osce immersion mentor the apprenticeship also the mentorship part but apprenticeship yeah we're building a crew like that and we have to live it and show the example so that this thing just takes over yes that's the goal yeah the the bricks themselves wouldn't have good insulation value right good thermal mass but not insulation so you still have to do insulation like whatever you would do for installation one one thing we have done is you've got two layers of brick and then you're throwing cellulose insulation in between that that's one way to do it or the the foam board on the outside different ways to do it what about have you considered are you familiar with light class light straw clay yeah you can do like you can do you can lighten up the blocks with fluffy material to get more in because there's you know you have straw barrel and then you have cobb and then and there's lights which kind of like mixes straw in there and with that you can get really high insulation value and i wonder if and and they actually um in that building technique that sometimes they will build bricks that they can then use later so the idea of having a they could do that that can kind of automate that process and then you have this brick that also has a population that wouldn't be value compressed route but i'm sure there's some innovation to be done there uh like for example geopolymers or like aerated ways to do it or some light particles within the mix or even just the way to do like um if it's sawdust or some fluffy material like even recycled polystyrene uh that you're throwing in the mix but then you have to bind it it's not gonna just bind just like the earth blocks but what i can tell you right now is that that's all innovation to waiting to be happened and i don't see much uh i i typically say that we're in a stone age of innovation right now so if we need to develop something better we can like one thing is to me that's like a low-hanging fruit is just local concrete limestone is everywhere right you burn it you make lime you can make lime concrete i mean there's there's all kinds of options of what you can do and as we start designing molecules or like whatever graphene or others high-tech insulating materials um it's that's all to be done and also taken to the realm of pulse scarcity yes we're not there yet we're still kind of in a scarce resources mode uh altogether the bricks i mean that does work unstabilized simple block to build a house um yeah that works it certainly works yeah cool interesting that makes sense yeah uh i'm looking at the time i have time but uh i have a few more some questions i want to get you before so tell me how much more you have yeah yeah let's try to quit around around three or so and then maybe we can um maybe a few minutes but um some more stuff yeah so i'll kind of try to go quickly um one thing my my wife who's you know doing the nonprofit with me is really interested in the stuff and a little envious of the idea of me doing it all and um and her time is a little bit less flexible because you know when she's home the kids tend to be kind of more attached to her and if she's not working but but she would love to like try to participate in like the design work and yeah and kind of be on this stuff would it be okay if she like you know could could she be kind of trying to do it with us and if she doesn't you know that's fine but like are you cool with that yeah yeah definitely definitely and um we want people doing this so so let's make it work out like like i asked you like okay what would be the ideal situation let's you know let's define that and then let's say in the post-scarcity mindset that's okay how do we make it happen it's once again like i like to refer to negotiation negotiation is never split the difference both parties need to get what they want and and we we work it out and make it happen and the way we operate here is we help each other to do that and any and that's in the interest of both both people because um like true negotiation is really about collaboration like you have to consider what the other person wants and what and you're agreeing to say okay we're going to collaborate we work together on making that happen because the better the better the deal the one person gets the better the deal the other other person gets and the way i like to say is that um it's about uncovering just we need to uncover what is that that like because because there's an iceberg of like okay there's a little tip of what we're communicating but what else is all there that's hidden underneath there that we don't see and if we expose that make it more transparent and then we work something out that definitely works but yeah i'm definitely willing to work with you and however whatever we'd like to work out there cool very good very good and i might be able to find some other people in the area who are interested probably more like in the remote piece so is there some way i i think that there will be i think i think the like for us for example the money would like we could you know it'll be challenging for us to do the one of us and i'm hoping that she could just kind of like comment out as needed and i um but like with the like is there some like uh way to make it more financially accessible to people who might not be able to pay but kind of like do like a group thing with us like yeah yeah yeah i mean let's let's make it happen like uh okay i mean if you're of course we have to cover costs and stuff like that yeah i mean let's you know let's let's do that if you know let's talk about some numbers like think about what what's the value and and let's just uh make it happen like what would be a number that works for both both of us and i mean of course my interest is like the more people actually engaged in it the better now the thing is it's like um this statement like if you pay you're paying attention kind of you want to make sure that whoever's coming into it they're committing to it as well so they have some state stake in it that's that's the only concern for when you get a whole bunch of people like around and you don't want to just spend the time and people just kind of drift in and out you want to make sure that there's a level of commitment that we can address in the way we set it up yeah yeah yeah i totally get that yeah and and i'll have to you know gauge interest there might not be other interest from him um real quick maybe the last question and of course perhaps the biggest que uh a big question um so uh well and maybe you kind of touch on this already but um you know i do see you know osu's work is fundamentally anti-oppressive as far as it kind of decentralizes knowledge opportunities but that said you know we have this systemic oppression in our society that that you know keeps you know certain groups from accessing some of these resources and opportunities and so i'm just wondering what if anything you do uh because my fear is that it's just going to be a bunch of privileged folk who are the early adopters because they they have the ability to adopt early so i'm wondering you know if you've given me a thought or if you you know do anything to give access to those who may not have those opportunities yeah that's is a real it's a real real issue and i think that the people who are gonna break through the depressions like right now i think the elites more or less fund the initial development as we get more established we have extra resources and we create programs with an explicit mission of saying okay we're gonna make this accessible so we are doing that like for example um we are working on and fun like funding but that means someone else is paying right um there's resources that go into this and materials and so forth so so we're working on getting a couple of local people at least from kansas city actually even maysville uh into the program but we need funding somehow so that's the way we can do it so someone has to pay now as we get economic power and this model is working uh we should have resources to to do things like paid internships and things like that that make it okay now there's absolutely no barrier because right now we could even do like like free you know a free option may not even work because a person is losing time they're not making a living they're losing money right now for what they could be doing working so that's that's definitely to address but i'm seeing that um we're very conscious about it and i think it's about deliberate creation of programs that make that feasible and economically feasible yeah does that does that answer it or yeah yeah i think so and and i think also you know to what you're saying earlier too like you know if you know some people that in this area are interested in you know participating remotely i imagine that you know you with the remote access there probably also be much more flexibility in pricing structure for example and if i were doing some of the in-person builds you know then and could share that knowledge yeah that that could also kind of work i mean i mean one way it does work is like think of yourself as the messenger like you get total out of it and you can actually it's all open source i mean all this stuff is for free what you're paying for is the fast track it's the deep immersion that spending time with people and with the access to the resources that makes you learn faster but right now it's like i mean there is a sector in the nonprofit sector but we're i mean we're a nonprofit but we don't operate like a nonprofit we don't do grants we don't we never really did that we're we're bootstrap funded so uh simply because nobody's to fund the revolution that's that's the thing in order to scale to the level we need we cannot rely on funding from foundations because it's not going to happen um so part of it is developing a revenue model that that works from the bootstrap thing and it's clear it's called efficient production so if the house works like we think that the model it does is plenty of revenue and then to to grow the project significantly i'd like to double every year from now on so so that's that's kind of the background goal doubling i don't think we should have a problem doubling uh every year um and an immediate sense like if we do want people to take the programs it's like let's let's write grants to uh like for example to collaborate in kansas city for example interested he's interested in the program but he's also a grant writer too so he might be like okay let's get more people more funding into this because the difference different thing as i said is we are bootstrap funded because we believe the growth of the project that needs to happen uh will not be otherwise funded all right right cool uh looking at time can i ask one last question uh because as i'm thinking through uh the space that we'd wanna uh use yeah i'm wondering you know within mind that i'd like to at the very least be doing home builds if not also just start building other things how much space you know would do should i be thinking that i need for this well is 500 square um so the lot has to be like you know a thousand square feet absolute minimum like that's like house next to the house but i mean we think of um like if you talk about an osce campus we say like 40 acres but a small operation is you know you can do this at any scale like depending on what you do it could be a a hackerspace micro factory that's a lot right if you want to get into land-based operations you're actually feeding people that's at least an acre you know things like that um we envisioned that as far as the the replica facilities we're thinking on a scale of 100 acres for like the full like we have 30 acres here that's enough for a core facility to do a lot of different things when we replicate i'd like to see like normally i'm thinking like about thousand acre lots because then you get to the thousand dollar per acre price point which means you can get a lot of that at a much lower cost uh and if we're actually recreating civilization as we speak of we need to operate at that scale but for now it's uh for you i'd say uh for a basic operation it's like like a couple of acres that you're gonna get started with uh if you're built but if you're just building houses for people that's just a lot you know so so i would so let's say you know this place you know has it has a barn for example yeah we could you know set up some equipment there just as kind of like a maker space for people to kind of explore with and then the bills would happen at the lots whatever those are so we would kind of as a start 4 000 square feet for your basic workshop that's what we have here and that's plenty of space for a lot of the activity we've done all the workshops pretty much all of that now we're building another 4 000 square foot for this summer um and more space like outdoor kitchen and bathrooms to handle like 100 or 200 people on site at one time um but the thing about if you talk about a facility for the micro factory four thousand square feet this is a nominal number right now okay okay and and if it's smaller it would just mean just there'll be 3d printers less know that's that's classic yeah okay just having to start welding torching you need a little space on the concrete floor right right gotcha yeah okay okay cool um yeah yeah what are some any other major questions i mean anything else yeah i i don't i don't think so i mean this all sounds wonderful i feel like there's a lot that is just such a great fit and you know as i and i feel like there's a lot that i can contribute to i i know there's any time i can learn um it you really did rock my world with the idea of you know my online productivity and leadership course going on uh open source and and and i i want to do it uh i'd love to get a little bit of guidance yeah about how to make that happen efficiently because you know just some of the basics just in terms of like what is that like you know what open source designation you know is the creative commons like what how do i you know there's certain licenses that you have to publish under and it's really about uh it starts with a philosophy like you have to believe you have to understand what a value proposition is and that's kind of like the stuff that we would talk about during the enterprise sessions in the evenings would be what is do you understand what value you have if you can define it then you can say where in the value chain am i charging for it and i'm convinced that by opening up the know-how and charging us where is the way to go like like the certification part is for real because because that's a well-known model in fact like on uh whatever udemy or whatever the online courses you can take them for free but if you if you want a certification then you have to pay for it and what does that mean that means you're probably you might be spending some time on that's unless that's fully automated there's some more hand holding and there's an actual higher level of responsibility that the person has to take on because they're actually being graded you can also set it up such that what they're working for contributes value and stuff like for example to design this new thing for the tractor well they got the certification they also added value to us so you have to really study the value chains where they are and that will determine where you're charging and how much and make it and the first principle being open access right because there's other ways to to generate revenue simply by value added it's like the the open core where we add value in a different place now the difference between normal businesses and that is that a normal proprietary business does not share how they add that value and what their revenue model is we do because that in itself is because the other thing you you'll notice is that you can be getting more into a also franchise model which means that okay now you're teaching this how about you're teaching the teachers that make this spread farther yeah that's a bigger value proposition and then there's you can create revenue models around that so but it's all something you have to it's something to really consider and starting with a mindset that's a shift of mindset that's the first thing that's kind of like the first thing we're we're trying to teach people it's like okay first of all we're collaborating and just take that so say you're collaborating and you know that you're gonna have access to okay send running some business and you know we've been in business for some time now it's you know marginally but it's like we're we're not going away and we're we're continuously developing so the first thing to recognize is okay now you've got a crew of a dozen people that are working it's like they're working for you they're working with you they're working for you we're all feeding the revenue models to each other and developing them so you can get the confidence that okay if i learn what martian is doing or this or that like say the 3d printer business or the house okay i'm good i actually can make the revenue meet the ends and then we can treat the information products a little differently maybe because you're not even depending on them but we still do have a robust model for okay this is education this is immersion training various other opportunities so we have to think about where that those opportunities lie and just turn them into real uh revenue models yeah yeah i love it yeah yeah and and is there an obvious way with like the because i have the online course and then i have the collaboration like piece uh is that just like the standard just like kind of like a wiki where people can be contributing ideas because yeah i feel like you know i have certain expertise so i don't necessarily want everyone just being like no no you should be doing this you know but i also want to have a space for people to kind of you know brainstorm and offer so how do i you know you do want to set up space and that's a careful art of how do you become 100 vulnerable and also respected authority in another way authority as an earned authority not just authority by name but i've got certain expertise um you have merit in it and that's that's something to work out like where is your open collaboration platform how does it work and that gets into governance right and i think we touched on that right um actually i'm not that was actually talking we were talking about with another person but um it's really the what is that the governance behind it like how do you allow how do you make the rules that people can collaborate openly but also not abuse it so you have to empower you have to structure it and empower structure it first to make that the case and create governance structure around it that promotes it um which is a creative process so that's these kinds of things are to be developed that's an art to it but it does rely like the first step is it's a personal it's an inner journey that says okay i'm gonna be vulnerable that's a skill already now if you're the more vulnerable you are if you can master the self-esteem part of vulnerability then you can handle all those situations where people are piping up and trying to seize authority because there's a lot of immature people you gotta get that you're gonna open yourself up you're gonna open up to all kinds of stuff but this is where you learn more how to manage how to become anti-fragile and how to turn those things into opportunities not threats so this is the magical part of converting situations uh so i'd say that that's anti-fragility that is um it's called this is a psychology term for it what is that what all right sublimation oh interesting okay and i have a term called economic sublimation look it up on the wiki yeah okay but this is where it gets to now the journey becomes internal this is like okay you up your skill set and the new challenges that come with openness and transparency and open source collaborative development you step up to them you have to learn new skills and this is why we're building our crew over of people to make that a reality yeah i think i can provide good leadership on it because this is why i live listen and and man yeah i get good guidance so i have a good real good mentor uh he really challenged me on this like last year actually interestingly like he basically challenged me so why aren't you collaborating and what and then we went into that and we explored what true collaboration really means so i've got a good insight on that and that's kind of thing that i'm trying to communicate to other people right now is we think we collaborate but what are the ways that we do collaborate and what are our limits and i think the the faulty mental model is that most people think they're like playing good open collaborators no no we're not if if we were we wouldn't have patents we wouldn't have corporate structure the way it is right now the world would be much different so we have to first observe what happens right now and work on transcending it yeah yeah yeah and that's exciting it's the most exciting game so that's why we got to get let's get the technology out of the way i am because nobody's doing it we got to solve it and speaking of the collaboration you you know you sent that link about the social contract which was just great and you asked if i could add to it so yeah so what what do you mean by that i'd be happy to have some ideas so that that page is open if it's if it becomes a founding document we can say no edits close it up right now it's in development it's meant for that page was meant for the participants in an aussie apprenticeship to contribute to i seated it i think there's some solid stuff there but what do i miss what's important to okay cool wonderful this is it's so nice to connect with you and it's really exciting really exciting yeah yeah so let's you know think about it sleep on this think about the value proposition and all that and let's work out and so so yeah what would the next step be just discussing like financial logistics and financial logistics so let's settle on that and after that we i'll send you an agreement that says okay this is what we agreed to and this is the expectations and so forth such as the social contract and the fact that we're co-developing and all of that and um we'll send you the agreement and then you make the payment and you're officially in into the program and i think you bring some tremendous skill sets as a research psychologist who studied with the the master of flow named chick shannon that's amazing yeah yeah yeah still alive right yes yes yeah he's like 85. yeah he's he's he's a burning guy he's truly you know he's a similar family that's that's like several figures of the world that's still alive yeah yeah yeah yeah awesome yeah yeah no yeah i i'm i'm playing soon on sending an email and mentioning some of the stuff i'm sure i i i could see i'm getting behind is for real probably a lot of his other students may be highly interested in this kind of stuff too so maybe if you can um just pass we'll be in touch uh and um is there a certain time no by i think by the end of the month is like the early bird thing yeah you need by a certain time is that kind of a good target yeah i mean let's try to settle whatever but yeah let's do that so that we can actually start on boarding you and like moving forward perfect yeah really in the next day or two yeah yeah perfect yeah all right okay well thank you thank you yeah and we'll get that soon okay take care okay bye | Marcin Jakubowski | UCjvBN1r7UXXqmIbx_u7bIAw | 2021-05-22 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 9,335 | 48,790

0yaqUBHwlwc | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0yaqUBHwlwc | Jeep Gladiator | Weathertech Techliner and Rugged Ridge Armis Soft Tri-Fold Bed Cover Install | [Music] what's up guys i know it's been a while since you've seen my face on the channel sti has been down for a little bit but picked up a new daily and we're going to be doing some stuff on that today so stay tuned so here she is 20 20 jeep gladiator already did a few stuff to it but today we're going to be working on stuff in the bed so i got a weathertech tech liner that's going to be going in and then installing my bed cover all right so bed is all prepped and cleaned ready to go here's the liner as you can see it's got these little adhesives they're all velcroed so basically just going to let it put it in there in the back of the bed let it sit line it up so it's where it needs to be and then starting from these back pieces in the back of the bed uh lay down some alcohol to prep the surface where it's gonna go pop this adhesive backing off and then put it into place and then they recommend like standing over wherever you put for like 15 seconds so here's the tech liner in place so you basically just set it down in place and then work your way from the back to the front and all those adhesive spots so i'm gonna do that now prep the surfaces with alcohol take off the adhesive backing and then work my way over you can see here is the backing and just get a rough idea about where it's going to go and then take some of the alcohol prep wipes they give you and just go for it so it's everything's in all the velcro points are all secured as you can see kind of like on some of the edges and the sides and stuff where there is no velcro lifts up a little bit so my plan is to grab a couple other pieces of velcro that i have with adhesive on the back and just cut out certain sizes that i want same thing kind of back here if you guys know about the gladiator there are a couple drain points for water like here and on the other side so what i'm probably going to end up doing most likely i'm going to end up maybe like drilling out holes that'll probably be the cleanest way to do it i don't really want to use a utility knife or something of this sort and kind of just cut like a weird-looking hole in it so i might just drill it out just so it has space for the water to kind of drain down install is super super simple the biggest thing is just prepping the surface making sure it's all clean and stuff ready to go it probably took me about i mean it's it's hot out here really hot today so took my time a little bit but honestly install is like less than a half hour like i said it's really just prepping the surface the truck was already clean i just had like water spots and stuff here and there that i needed to clean so i just hit it with an all-purpose cleaner real quick um and then i actually went over with a glass cleaner uh just to kind of get away some of those spots and stuff and then that was it so like i said first things first just remove one two three four five six bolts uh weathertech supplies a t30 torx bit to do so so i'm gonna remove those bolts clean the surface up real quick just to get some of these spots out from where i was stepping and whatnot and then go ahead and install the liner all right so it's all installed as you can see the screws hold it in place in here and then there's three pieces of adhesive in the back here but super super easy everything is installed now like i said i'm waiting for is this piece that sits on the bed cap portion of the tailgate they're supposed to be sending it out to me but basically that piece gets adhered into place and then you tuck this underneath so it's not flapping around and stuff while you're driving so that's pretty much it for the install for the weathertech liner it's super simple it's pretty much universal in all trucks they obviously cut them out to different sizes to fit the different size beds and stuff but the install is pretty much the same in any truck that you're going to do so i definitely recommend it it's got that nice rubber rough coating that weathertech is known for super super easy to clean i'm not going to worry about scratching up the bed if i put anything in it it would be nice to have like the size and stuff covered but i'm not really worried this is not going to be like a crazy utility truck that i'm using to do a bunch of work and stuff for it's just going to be my toy that i sometimes throw stuff in the back end so for what i need it for this is perfect pricing isn't too too bad for it uh weathertech is a lifetime warranty and they're really good with their customer service stuff and it's made in the us so can't get really much better than that but that's it install's done super super simple like i said about a half hour to an hour at the max if you were to do it but i'm really happy with the results so now i'm going to go grab bite to eat and cool off a little bit because it's really really hot out here um and then after that i'll come back install the bed cover which really shouldn't take me another maybe half hour to an hour at the most maybe towards an hour because it's really hot all right so back out after lunch a couple more things i'm going to do with the tech liner so like i said i'm going to add some velcro so i got some velcro here and then i'm also going to drill a couple holes for the drain uh back in the back of the bed so i'm gonna do that real quick i'll show you guys the final results of kind of how everything is together and then we'll get to work on the bed cover all right so finished project i don't know if you guys can see but let me see if i can get a better angle kind of hard to tell but i drilled a hole there and drilled a hole right in the corner there that's where the two drains are for the bed and then i also put velcro here here here on the two sides here and that's pretty much it so that's it for the whole install uh pretty happy with how it looks and yeah now it's onto the bed cover all right so it's installed time for the bed cover so what i went with is the rugged ridge soft tri-fold cover it's their armist series basically it's a soft cover tri-fold these are the two clamps for the brackets in the back of the bed comes with everything brackets and bolts and stuff to install so yeah got a couple things to do first before we start putting in brackets and stuff and then we'll get started so one of the things that you got to do is you got to cut out this little indentation in the bed cap the brackets for the bed cover where the bed clamps sit in right here they go into the two holes that are threaded behind here so this little indentation just has to get cut out so that you can expose that and the brackets can go into place what i'm using to cut it is a utility knife i have this little plastic trim tool that i'm going to use to slide underneath and just pull it away so i don't scratch any of the paint and stuff behind it and then i'll give you guys an update once it's done so after you got those pieces cut out these are your two brackets with the screws um as you can see there's like a notch here that's where the clamp sits under so that goes down this way so i'm gonna get those installed and then show you guys the back brackets and then go from there all right so the back brackets are on uh they're both t30 bolts and you'll notice that the bolts they do take a little bit of work uh to try and go into place with the painted truck bed as well as probably with the spray spraying bed liner it's going to take a little bit because there's paint or there's a spray in within the threads but as long as you use a ratchet and just take your time and kind of thread it in it's perfectly fine all right so here's the two holes so this is where the expansion that's going to go on this top hole and then the bolt just goes in here and then it just kind of tucks under the bed cap here all right so first brackets in place uh bottom bolts at t50 top one is uh allen bolt it's a size three metric so i just basically twisted the allen bolt into the expansion nut a good amount just so it started actually doing what i'm supposed to do and expand the nut i put it in the hole and then i tighten the bottom one all the way while putting this up under the bed cap and then that was it and then i just tightened up the wall nut up top made sure it was snug and that's it now i'm going to move on to the other side you guys can see those are threaded through the holes of the bracket then i got to put the cabinets on i pretty much eyeballed the cover itself to kind of see if it's parallel between the two sides basically even on both sides across the top of the bed cap but basically going to put the cap nuts in not tighten them down all the way until i make sure that the bed cover itself is even as it should be and then i'll open it up make sure it clamps into place the right way uh snug everything down and then it should be good to go and that's it like i said super super easy install so let me finish it up and then i'll show you guys the finished product all right so as you guys can see caps are already tightened down i got the bed cover sitting basically where i want it um even on both sides basically where the edge of this line is underneath you can kind of see it'll sit on the inside edge on both sides and that's how you know it's parallel but i'll fold it out for you guys show you the final product and that's it now two options with this cover if you want you can fold it all the way back this way and then it's got these two buckles so the buckles just go into place tighten them down and you can have it open that way if you needed to obviously you can take it off it's just those two nuts that are in place literally probably take you like not even five minutes just pop it off if you really need to use the whole bed all right so here it is now it sits a little bit higher than the bed cap compared to some other options that are either completely level with the bed cap um but i went with a soft top really don't need the hardtop it's got these two big clamps in the back um so when the tailgate's closed and locked there's really no way of getting into it obviously if someone wanted to they can just cut through this off top but extra layer of security and privacy that's pretty much it this install is super super simple like i said obviously like i said today is super super hot if i had any recommendation don't do all this stuff to your bed right under the sun on a super super hot day because i am definitely drained but i am happy with the way it came out looks great finally have some added protection can finally throw stuff in the back of the bed have it covered up not have to worry about anything with it price point is actually really really good with the cover if you guys have looked into it the mopar ones are pretty pricey for basically what's exactly the same soft top this one is right around like the 450 ish range which isn't bad i originally was going to go with a hard cover the only reason i was going to do that again extra security and there was an open box one that i had a chance to get ordered it turned out that kind of got screwed over they couldn't find the open box one that they said and the new one is like a thousand dollars so i was like forget it uh fourth of july rugged ridge was having a 10 off just went for it bought the soft one and honestly i'm happy with it so we'll see how it holds up it's the same kind of material as like the soft tops that come on the jeeps so it's should hold up pretty well but other than that i mean less than a couple hours realistically i mean it took a little bit longer because i took breaks and it's super hot out uh took a lunch break but honestly between the tech liner and the bed cover it's no more than an hour and a half and i did it all by myself so definitely easy diy if you guys have any questions feel free to leave some comments like i said the install is super simple they do lay out directions for you in the box when they send it to you there's videos online but i figured i'd just throw out another one in case you guys wanted to see a different angle of it some different things i did with the tech liner and the combo of the two so that's pretty much it for today do have some other things coming for the gladiator i already did a couple small other upgrades like uh changed out the crazy huge 35-inch antenna that come stock on these things and then added some door sill guards rather than that i'm pretty much done for the day i got side steps that are backward of course because this whole covet stuff i'm happy with it so hope you guys like the video make sure to like and subscribe uh there will be a couple more videos coming with the gladiator taylor has been doing a lot of behind the scenes work trying to get the 240 done uh it's kind of crazy with that car and his situation so we will try and get an update video to you guys soon but you'll definitely see some more videos including some install stuff some updates on his car and trying to get his car hopefully on the road driving next month and then uh as well if you guys look at the last video we work with prime motoring doing some basically inside the build stuff with their cars and some of the crazy cars that come out of their shop that they build so if you guys didn't check that out make sure to go check that video out definitely some more videos like it coming um hopefully some more with our friends and stuff also and you know as this covet stuff starts coming to an end we can hopefully go back out live the normal lives do our cruises our meets our shows whatever and just get back to doing car guy stuff but thank you guys for watching and stay tuned for the next one | Innovative Garage | UClkVTvEOkuzT9u3xO3lqSGg | 2020-07-28 | Creative

VVVW-cJO5AE | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VVVW-cJO5AE | Keynote - Andrew bunnie Huang | thanks for the intro um it's great to be here in CRA it's been like 16 years since I was last in Australia as a high school student um this is a really uh impressive audience I was at some of the talks yesterday and the caliber is really up there um it's sort of always awkward being a hardware guy in a software conference because I'm like yeah where's the S irons and where are we talking about um so hopefully you guys uh have with my keynote today um so I'm going to talk a bit about um making Hardware the processes and challenges of doing that um and then I'm going to go quickly over some of the issues that we encountered embedding Linux in the hardware and uh talk about a couple case studies um in ter in terms of actual Hardware applications of Linux uh that we've done so um this here is your typical Moors law curve um the blue line is a bunch of data points I harvest off wikip IIA of U x86 processors um you know over time and then I kind of eyeballed over the yellow line here which represents the uh curve of sort of arm processors simultaneously the big thing is the Blue Line would be um you know processors that cost several $100 on their debut and the yellow L is procur that cost about $20 on a debut and drop to single digit prices very quickly as you can see since uh since clock speeds have slowed down in in recent years um in terms of the uh the growth of clock speeds um it's given a great opportunity for low-end processors to completely catch up with the desktop Brethren so now you can buy um you know mobile phones that have quad core you know 1.6 GHz performance and which is very similar to what would be inside of a uh an ultra low power Netbook this has uh really been enabling in terms of converging um sort of the Linux and the desktop Paradigm so now now inside your mobile phones and in your pocket and your walls and your desk and so forth you can have um full Linux machines um but this this trend here is essentially what enabled um me to do a startup around 2005 where we wanted to put essentially Linux everywhere uh back then it wasn't as common to have small Linux computers all around your house and we want to build a company where we could bring the internet Cloud to Common appliances like alarm clocks photo frames TVs that sort of stuff this is a uh just for those who aren't familiar with the product uh this is the tech stack that we had running behind it uh most the devices ran under Linux um and then on top of it we used flash actually uh which turned out to be a really bad idea uh but that was only in retrospect back then uh you know you couldn't actually run webkit web kit really didn't exist when you started actually and then you couldn't run a web browser in in uh you know 64 Megs of RAM and and a a couple hundred MHz CPU so we we were um tempted to use flash instead and then on top of that we had some UI and then a whole layer of um rails and Apachi and Cloud stuff that Hardware guys like me never touch um that I've seen in slides and I included so you guys could uh maybe you know enjoy it um this is a sampling of the chumby devices that uh we had built uh these three on the left here were ones that I actually had designed and and manufactured myself um and the one on the right is one that was made by Sony a partner that we had uh of you know got together with um the uh the progression of CPU speeds over time of course kept on going up so did screen sizes of course Sony decided to take a step backwards in um in CPU performance which is why the UI performance really sucked on the device um and it's sort of unfortunate decided to do that here's a a bit of a a little a little chart here that tells you how much time is spent actually making a product so for the chumbi 1 which is uh oops it's uh it's that one right there the little white guy right there I actually went back through my emails and looked at you know what date the emails were versus the general phase of the product that we're in took about a year to do the product I'd say about a quarter of time was spent sort of doing marketing and study and bus this is sort of emails to retailers vendors marketers saying hey you know would you like to have a $99 chumby and like you know what would the features need to be so and then maybe only about 15% of the time is actually done doing actual Hardware design mean schematic PCB layout and that sort of thing about uh 20% of the time was sort of not really I it's unfair to say 20% was just for the software Dev what happened is software Dev was going through the whole process 20% of time was the time required for software as a long pole and a tent to catch up to everything else before could ship a product uh about 10% was industrial design and then about 33% the mass the majority of the time is spent in mass production rent uh mass production ramp which is things like uh organizing the supply chain talking to factories doing tooling tweaking fixturing all that sort of stuff which is uh sort of my latest obsession is uh you know trying to enable more people to to be able to do that kind of thing so I'll talk a little bit about um the process of actually giving Linux a body an actual shell which I think is I don't know how many people here have done injection molding has anyone done injection molding few people probably here and there okay so um when you when you want to design a a gadget you want to sell it uh it's great to have bare boards but consumers feel more comfortable when there's something around it so uh so we have we I got better at uh building um devices that have shells around it so every design that you want to manufacture starts a very detailed 3D model model I mean we would model the circuit board and the parts on it um all the connectors all the holes crosssections the clearances everything would be all done in a in a 3D model environment it's very important to make sure your connectors don't collide um before you actually make your product it's it's sort of unfortunate when it does so we so we would take time to make sure that's okay make sure the LCD doesn't fall out you know make sure the speaker boxes sound good and they're right size and so forth so we did a lot of modeling and CAD work um we' agonize over small details like this we would have you know hours of meetings you know should we make this little detail a little bit bigger does it really Express the right DNA and all this kind of crap it take forever um once you've gone through all of that then you actually need to build these things for actually doing the injection molding these are the steel tools uh that are used to do injection molding they're they're this the just for reference they're probably about this one's probably about the size of the table here uh they weigh several tons and they have to take um really high pressure plastic and they force into a small cavity and turn it into your injection molded part this is what this tool looks like when you open it up all those little pins there are what's used to force the plastic out of the cavity once the injection molding is done and uh this is kind of an image of what the actual finished cavity looks like um the pins are actually uh you can't see them cuz they're actually flush against the body right here but they they actually when the part's ejected a set of pins will come rising out of the mold to to push the injection molded part out um to build these uh tools you have to do a lot of steel cutting um you know they start in a tool shop that looks like about like this this is a this this will be a pretty big one um a whole Bank of you know CNC machines on the left and a bunch of people with saws and Mills and all that sort of stuff and uh sort of Flor to ceiling uh Milling machines which these are always I always love going to factory tours can see these really big robots um cutting steel and doing your bidding uh once you've done sort of the the rough tooling part and you've uh kind of done a sort of a rough cutting of the steel the Finish isn't good enough if any you seen tooled steel you have these sort of little circles little tracks of circles where the where the Milling bit had gone um in order to get the fine finish so if you look at a product that has like a satin finish on it or has small holes and so forth they actually use a process called EDM it's where they take coppered electrodes and this is a collection of coppered electrodes and they mount it into onto the steel tools so here the steel tools on the bottom in a bathe of sort of tooling oil and there's a copper electrode right there and they they forc several hundred volts and and several amps through it and they actually use the the sort of um the force of electrons actually flowing through the electrode to knock away Atomic layers of Steel it's a very very slow process it takes like maybe 8 to 10 hours to put one feature in and uh but the Finish is extremely high quality it's down to half a micron um Precision so the so tooling is a very very very like time timec consuming and very expensive process um once the tools have been made this is another example of a of a tool that's open um the tools are hand polished uh so whenever you see a very glossy High finish kind of product typically there's some girl in China who spent like a week polishing that to get you that very high quality polish all done by hand uh the raw plastic before it goes in injection molding looks like small pellets like this and then um it goes into machines that are size of a car and uh and about once every 30 seconds you get a perfect injection mold apart if everything's going well so this is a this is a sort of a a slide that explains why uh startups may have a hard time competing with Apple so if you're a startup and you want to do a tool um from the start of your idea so you've actually got your design done it takes about 6 weeks uh average to to finish a tool and then you have uh what are called the t0 and T1 shots which is where you know the first time you actually shoot a tool it never comes out right you actually have to shoot it you look at the plastic it's crummy it's got plastic flowing weird place places and all kinds of problems in it and you take it off the tool and you machine it some more and you know do do a little tweak here and there and it looks better and you do several of these and it finally comes out good but uh if you screw up you have to wait another 6 weeks if you want to redo the tool and it's another $20,000 what Apple would do is they would actually start five or six tools at the same time so they would just go ahead and throw uh you know $100,000 on the floor and they would throw away all but one of the tools um this allows them to explore like five or six design directions simultaneously um in order to um you know make sure that they can stay on schedule one of them is picked and they go to production uh and and even despite that I heard uh last time I was in China the iPhone 3G they actually had to redo the tool three times they actually scrapped the tool three times because the Polish spec was so high on iPhone 3G that the inherent voids and softness of of hard tooling steel couldn't be polished to the point where they could get a perfect finish so Apple certainly spends an insane amount of money to get that finish that you see on those phones and that's why you know people ask me how come startup stuff doesn't look as good as apples this is one of the reasons why I mean aside from the fact that they've got brilliant designers but the tooling is really hard too this again is another example of a tool that I did for a product uh called the NV um and you can see here just a kind of how high high the Polish gets on a uh on a mirror finish product it looks you can see your face in the in the steel uh by time it's ready to go to production so um there are a couple things uh as I go you know kind of round out the sort of the the the hardware slideshow of this um that I wanted to sort of say I guess to a to a crowd of people who haven't done Hardware I get this question all the time in meetings why didn't they put X into the system it's only $5 it kind of turns out that almost any feature that you want you can probably go to digit key and find it for $5 right you're like oh I want a more memory I want a faster processor I want a better digitizer I want bigger speakers I want a bigger battery it's only $5 you're selling a $100 product how come it's not in there this is why so as a general rule um if you're doing a $99 product you want your cost of goods to be about a third of that so about 30 bucks $5 is a lot of 30 bucks by the way but people don't realize that that it's 30 bucks of actual material of the $30 you want to keep some of it for yourself right so you can actually pay employees and keep the lights on so forth so say you take $15 and put in your pocket the retailer is going to want to um actually keep you know about that much for themselves it it it so turns out that's the way the market works I don't like it but that's that's just a fact of life If you're sort of a smaller uh lower volume equipment manufacturer um you'll be in smaller boutique stores that would take about that much margin to exist and then they'd round to what what I call a magic price so in retail they have these price points like $20 4999 49199 and uh if you tell a retailer I want to sell something for $17.35 they' be like that's not a price what do you mean that's not a price I mean like no one sells something for $17 the msrps are always rounded to to to sort of these magic numbers because in a consumer's mind once there three see three digits starting with a one you can pretty much put anything after the one it's all the same price to them so they always round up to the nearest thing so then let's go back to let's let's go and add $5 to the cost of goods so now we're at $35 for the product takes 172 in our pocket retail takes 522 you're now just above the $99 point and then what happens your MSRP just jumped to 149 right and so we end up in these very long sort of soul searching meetings over which $5 feature do we leave on the floor that would really make the product um so that we can actually hit these magic retail price points another one uh that I want to sort of talk about uh the final one I'm going to talk about about on on the hardware bit of things is that the high stakes deadlines everyone's familiar who's you know ship products with the term ship or die right and and that's that's true for software true for Hardware but it's even worse for Hardware because of the sort of the cyclic seasonality of the harder business um here is sort of a plot of the volume versus time and you could think of each of these as like a quarter of a year or something like that um like 90% of hardware sales happen between Black Friday Christmas so Q4 is when you sell right um it's true for a lot of gadgets there few there there are a few exceptions to this but that's basically the truth so if your schedule had you originally hitting Black Friday and you say oh I just want to tweak in a few more features in the software kind of you know ref find the UI do another polishing step it'll just be a better product and you ship actually just a little bit after Christmas you're dead right you have to exist another 3/4 another you know 9 months on the fumes that you have left in your bank account plus you have the whole backlog of inventory you didn't sell during Christmas basically it's the end of the company and this is one of the reasons why chumby isn't around today is because we had these arguments over like well the product's not good enough to ship we can't get it out there like look guys we have a minimum of i product it can do an update right ship it um because if you don't ship it we're just not going to have money to exist anymore so uh from the hardware standpoint uh if you're doing a consumer product particularly consumer product the the ship deadlines are very very serious uh for the company so uh this being a Linux crowd I thought I'd switch from talking about my Adventures making Hardware to a little bit more about the challenges that I've encountered embedding Linux there's a whole list of stuff I'm not going to you know sort of go into this this bullet list individually here but one of the things that's sort of my my quotquot favorite part of porting Linux to machine is that embedded CPUs have lots of weird bugs some of my favorites is like for example wrong instructions executed running self-modifying code out of cache great wrong instructions being executed always a good thing this means basically that uh JavaScript uh inside webkit which is doing some sort of you know dynamic recompilation is making self-modifying code means occasionally your JavaScript code just crashes and dies and goes away and uh this is actually a CP Hardware bug that we had to sort of sus out and and put a fix inside inside um inside the machine to make sure the thing would run stably you get weird stuff like boot failures below z c fixed don't run it cold okay great um another one is uh default PLL settings are invalid this one I pounded my head on for like like months I before I realized this was actually the problem what happened one the one of the CPU vendors I had there's this low frequency multiplier on the inside would take a low frequency Crystal multiply it up um the the defaults they actually put in the product were wrong they actually would cause a PL to be unstable and Jitter uh Way Beyond spec and so we were having just these after running for about maybe a week maybe about 3 days sometimes as short as a few minutes systems would lock up right and these kinds of things are incredibly hard to sort of figure out what's going on uh it's very subtle and and eventually we figured that out and had to put a fix in the bootloader to to correct the PLL settings or another one here faulty logic and store buffer may lead to data corruption again no good um and this one the fix to this one was in the in the in again in the bootloader we had to turn off store buffer optimization so a lot of these really bizarre quirks make porting to uh a particular product rather difficult another fun part of uh getting Linux to run unembedded systems is the boot loader every every CPU has its own boot process um people who you know when we were taught sort of computer architecture or programming we know that every computer starts from reset Vector which is at zero for arm and uh and so there's a disconnect between where yubu is and the reset Vector so a lot of people like to think that life starts at uboot actually Life Starts way before uboot if your uboot is stored on a on a hard dis drive that's over SATA right that code from Yo magically has to appear at location zero or wherever the reset Vector needs to be of your arm processor so there's this whole set of code that runs Upstream of it that's actually built into the CPU itself that looks at the different media SD card you know ior C flash um SATA SSD whatever you wanted to use and pulls that code in and you have to fight with that for a long time to even get your system to run a uboot and then once you're in the ubot you have no mmu no Dam no nothing limited exception support and so you spend a lot of time um just trying to get Linux kernel to load once again to Linux hooray um if you have a device with just a few megabytes of Ram or or a very small amount of flash so let make Linux will run a devices small as you know you know like 8 to 16 megabytes of memory um you have to have a lot of discipline to keep your Linux fitting in a footprint that big so in routers toys and appliances every dollar counts and you just need this constant discipline of auditing and testing I mean sometimes people would check stuff in like make file scripts or we're just going to do a modification here and all of a sudden like you know we went from a 16 MB image to a 64 MB image because I forgot to you know strip the binaries or whatever it is um and busy box doesn't save you in these situations it's just a lot of testing and a lot of auditing for memory leaks and so forth um flash file systems are typically what are used in the smaller devices you wouldn't put a hard drive in them uh I don't know how many of you know this but flash is only good these days for a few thousand read right Cycles so it's very easy to wear out flash if you do things like you turn on a time on your file system so every time you access a file it goes ahead and writes back and says I've accessed the file no good um no right is actually guaranteed to succeed on flash it can fail so if you're particular if you're running like a raw iron flash file system you have to test a lot for that and um Power powered down corruption is a fact of life so um you know we have test jigs where we would power on a one of our Linux systems it would run a script it would start dding random data to parts of the disk um and then it would commit the data and then we would just cut power at a random time and we would do this thousands of times over and over again every flash disc will eventually have a corruption problem where it zeros out random sectors of the dis this just happens um and so you have to have counter measures built into your system to prevent returns uh to go ahead and and have safe Backup images or reimaging of certain locations that you know are particularly vulnerable um to to restore your system power management is fun un embedded devices um I don't know how many people have to De deal with uh Dynamic voltage frequency scaling on a daily basis but the basic theory behind it is that power is a function of uh I mean this is the only equation I have a function of capacitance times voltage and frequency as you lower your frequency you can lower your voltage and lowering your voltage gives you a square laog goodness in terms of power reduction um the weird part of this is now I'm handing to a programmer essentially a screwdriver to the potentiometer to the voltage on the CPU which is never a good idea um the question is how do you make drivers that do this safe like how like when the guy's testing and he has you know I don't know some point arithmetic error and he starts blowing like zeros or all FS into these registers uh you don't want the CPU Catching Fire and line out the blue smoke um so there's a lot of work I do Upstream of these kinds of things to make sure that we have a a sane system before even give it to the guys to figure out how often to adjust what to predict and when high load is coming another problem with power management is that Rogue processes and kernel tasks uh can really eat through your power so even if you've done all your magic optimization um you know some guy will check in a driver and it you know pulls the kernel or something like that every every tick right and so now your CPU which could sleep is now constantly being woken up once every millisecond saying hey do you have an event do I have an event do I have EV do event so you have to kind of go through and audit all these things um kind of hash your Damons make sure they're not doing dumb things and then when you allow user apps like in a in a chumby case people can write you know whatever they want and load it on it man like power consumption can go through I mean sure everyone who owns an Android phone have have had the experience of a rogue app just running away and burning through your battery in 4 hours um suspense sleep is painful um I mean one of the one of the Troubles of of being an open source and embed is that people ride a driver they check it in it's great but they didn't include suspend sleep support whatever it is this a very very frequent problem I have so we end up taking drivers that uh for different elements and we have to refactor them to deal with the fact that sometimes you want to actually turn off the peripheral while the Linux is still on power on the perer lator restore it State and have it all work correctly and then finally it's uh when you have these small devices it's just a driver soup I mean like you just have all these bizarre sensors that are plugging into Linux now accelerometers temperature barometers um and then if you're doing robotics you have to do vision and rangefinders fpgas all kinds of stuff and you're doing a lot of one-off drivers um and essentially for the one-off drivers you know the guy who's writing is just you you don't have a huge support from a community behind it responsibity is a big issue on embedded platforms um and as I was saying before the development Community um for embedded devices is very relatively small compared to desktops and servers um and particularly if you want to do something Innovative in the hardware space where you have to redesign the uh you know redesign a driver basically it's just you writing a driver by yourself um every sort of custom small device you have to think about how you're going to do updates and patches right not everyone can afford to put Debbie in on a box and just use the great system that's there um and so like we have to roll our own update servers our own package managers assigning protocols fail safe rollbacks all that sort of stuff has to be tested and and brought out for production so all those challenges the core challenges uh at the end of the day you want to ship a product want to ship it on time on budget no bugs or at least a way to fix them later on um and what it boils down to is that complexity is really your enemy um and when I look at any particular system the most complex part is always the software right like Hardware we can build and I can get it right and we can get it working to a pretty high level of reliability software is always the long pole in the tent it's and I think it's partially because software is just so quotequote easy it's poorly defined it's highly mutable a lot of times it's grown not design there's lots of feature creep a lot of this contributes to the complexity of the software problem so when I as a as a hardware architect I try to balance uh performance cost and schedule um and in the end a lot of the the choices I make for the hardware are driven not necessarily by user requirements but what does it take to actually make de developers get something done in time um and at the end of the day once I've defined a box and I've built it it's the new cage for my developers I would literally go to softer guy put a new box in on his desk and say here is your new cage because like it it just has this much memory it has this much CPU has this much Flash and if you want to get outside of it you can't so they have to now work within that particular cage but you want to make sure that cage is big enough that they can actually get their work done at the end of the day so uh I'm going to go through a couple case studies of some harder we've done where I've had to sort of um tangle with uh some Hardware integration issues some architecture ual trade-offs and and and how they can impact sort of the Linux implementation layer this is a piece of Hardware that uh I recently made it's I call it kovan it's a robot controller board it has a u 800 MHz uh arm CPU on the inside has an fpga um four channels of motor drivers um eight eight analog inputs eight digital iOS has MMI ports battery charger seral blah blah blah all the sorts of stuff you need to build an autonomous robot one the requirements for it is that it needs to be able to do image processing and so uh we were going through a few different architectures we could use for how to glom on the fpj co-processor of image processing if you were to sort of come from a kind of desk topping environment uh the sort of the the the most intuitive way to do this would be to take your system on chip which is the CPU you plug the camera through USB into it you make the fpj look like a PC Express peripheral and you'd call it a day um you know the pro of this is that there's lots of flexibility on the fpga can be used the fpga doesn't need a frame buffer cuz it can it can use the main DDR for that the problem with this is that the memory uh bandwith on DDR really gets eaten up very quickly on a small embedded device in this case uh we had a 16bit ddr2 800 memory chip which means you only get 1.6 GB per second of bandwidth if you're doing 720p video it's eating 200 megabytes per second so you're going to go ahead and take that you're going to take 200 megab per second flush into Dam flush Dam to fpj fpj back to DRM and then Dam to LCD pretty much your memory bandwidth is gone right it's not a good idea to really do it this way uh on a lowend architecture uh and furthermore PCI Express is just hard to do in Hardware so one way to sort of get around this is okay let's not attach the camera to the S so let's go ahead and attach the camera to the fpga this saves us a round trip out of memory right so now the fpga is masquerading to the S so like an HID device FP fpj will go ahead and take the image data pre-process it flood into s so and we can write it to dram uh go to the LCD and so forth this saves a lot on DDR memory bandwidth um a lot of the high-speed data path management is done and one of the cool things is the driver just looks like a camera driver so all of a sudden I've taken a big nasty sofware driver that I have to write and turn it into nothing more than a camera driver um and that's one of the things I really like about the architecture another way to do this is in fact we can just go ahead and move the fpga um in between the S so and the LCD and the idea here is that if you're just whatever comes on the screen of the LCD you can pre-process with the fpga and feedback into the S so through through an internal camera Port um as image process data this one here again saves on DDR memory bandwidth the again you're just the fpj just looks like Dev FB you write a pixel to the frame buffer it goes to fpj automatically so you're not uh you're not dealing with a lot of dma stuff um and um and it's and it's really trivial to implement the RGB interface is a very very simple one to build uh and for completeness this is another place you can stick the fpj you can go ahead and put the fpj between the S so and the memory this has been done before it's very hard to do um we didn't do it because it's very hard but if you can stick an fpj between the CPU and the memory you can do all kinds of funny crazy tricks and uh on the on the CPU and in the end what we did on this particular ures that we did the laziest simplest thing which was stick the fpj between the S so and the LCD so basically whenever they wanted to do image processing they would just take the camera they would just uh throw the camera to the screen and then we turn the fpga and we do image extraction and feature recognition and then feed that back through an internal camera bus so it looked basically just like a display in a camera Loop uh to get all the image image extraction done um another question people often ask is when you put an fpj in the system how do you configure it you know fpgas are recoverable pieces of Hardware you have to bring them up um we used a synchronous herial Port from the so so so we can configure in 50 milliseconds the fpga itself is presented as a block device so it just looks like Dev fpga you just C your configuration file to Dev fpga and then you're done that's the full extent of what you need to configure an fpga uh use some ocls to go ahead and reset the fpga or check the done status no special ex computer or scripts required to get going um another thing we did is that because fpg have many pin compatible variants you can put into the single slot we have to figure out which fpga we're talking to prior to doing the configuration so use a set of gpios with uh JTAG based um ID code looping we go ahead and and wiggle the JTAG lines and see what ID codes come back and from there we can automatically switch multiple fpga types um based upon what the customer build is so uh I'm going to go through one last case study here um this is the NV uh NV is an embedded uh Linux product that I had made that goes between uh a video source and a monitor and the idea behind it is that you can go ahead and overlay a piece of video on top of a background uh video that you're watching the way it's done is essentially uh we actually create uh we actually create inside a frame buffer a web kit page it's it's a chromeless kind of web kit uh a chrome a chromeless web page it's all done in Ajax so it's done with JavaScript and so forth running inside and we set the background to to a pink color uh whenever we see the pink color we replace that pixel with video and then everything that's not pink gets overlaid on top of the video seems pretty simple but it's actually uh not that easy because most HDMI videos encrypted with hdcp and in order to De if you were to do this by decrypting video pixel by pixel and then replacing them you actually run into legal problem youit States I don't know if Australia this is an issue but in the US you can get potentially sued for just overlaying video on top of video so the solution we came up with was to swap en crypto pixels um which relies upon dead reckoning the timing from the timing information um relayed inside the video stream this is basically the overview of how it's done we did a man-in-the-middle attack on hdcp there's actually there's a there's a weakness in the in the in the in the exchange of keys and how it's done so that you can actually extract the master keys and by observing the the handshake between the two you can actually figure out what the transmitter Cipher key state is so then we would in the transmitter key schedule to be identical to that of the uh Upstream video source and so and then we would encrypt our local frame buffer to the same key that's being used in the transmitter which allows us to do pixel by pixel sychronization and swapping of data so at the end of the day if you had so at the end of the day if you had this sort of encrypted video coming from the source you have your um you have your unencrypted video in the frame buffer you have your um Cipher State here you hash them together EXO them together and then U you can just go ahead and swap those pixels out when they're decrypted you can turn a one into an I on the on the on the screen the architecture that we used to do it involves an fpga that sits in line on the HDMI bus and then a little Linux computer here and the fpj just looks like again in in the Covan case the fpj just looks like an RGB LCD interface so it just gets uh data in from the frame buffer the question is is how do we get real-time pixel swapping an embedded Linux machine we have to synchronize the frame buffer and the redraw rate inside the Linux machine pixel by pixel accur accurate to the incoming HDMI stream um this is the actual implementation of the of the uh of the hardware so again an 800 MHz uh Linux computer I like to re use my IP a lot between projects as you can tell and uh there's an fpj very very simple very low cost um excuse me the um the challenge is that the pixels have to be exactly timed to video pixels and uh we're using Dev fb0 of the Linux computer to to to get the pixels and if we just went ahead and we looked for example at the vsync interrupt and tried to time the Linux computers sort of redraw based upon that there's way too much interrupt Jitter on Linux right right it's tens to hundreds of pixels furthermore beyond that the uh the C the crystal oscillator even if we get that perfectly on say somehow magically we can get Linux to not have interrup Jitter the crystal oscillator of the local sort of CPU itself has a long-term drift of 100 pixels per frame right something like that um just that's based upon the pure PPM accuracy tolerance of the of of a crystal and so finally uh if we don't do something special we're going to have like Jitter and drift on the screen without tight synchronization so this is how we solve the problem first uh for the pixel clock for video we actually Source the pixel clock not from the graphics engine we actually take it derived from the video stream so we actually have a a a PLL that goes ahead and looks at the incoming clock derives a a clock from it and then we use that to clock the frame buffer so that's a hardware hack um second thing we have to do is that because HDMI supports multiple video resolutions we actually have to dynamically change Dev FB Z's property to match the incoming video resolution so if it's 40p we have to set the frame buer to 40p 720p 1080p these all have to be dynamically derived and and and matched by the uh by the local computer then uh whenever we have a vsync we go ahead and we start the LCD dma based upon we get a vertical interop basically we do a mini gen lock on inside the in in software and essentially we look at the Historical pattern of vyncs and we we wait where we think the next vertical frame will start and we go ahead and start the frame buffer uh reading out at that point in time of course uh Linux sort of U ability to get a a low Jitter interrup is pretty bad so we had to add an elastic fifo to to buffer a few lines of video to absorb all the vsync Jitter at the end of the day this is what it looks like on the inside of the fpga there's a you know a fifo that takes the video coming in uh line by line um we we encipher it we have a multiplexor that that picks the pixels uh a chroma key detector and then the man- in- the- middle mechanism up top uh so a little bit about the development environment a lot of people who haven't um you know uh done embedded uh Computing often times ask me what does the development environment look like um for this particular project this is the tool chain that we picked a lot of times uh we use these very stripped down distributions like called ingstrom some people have heard it some people haven't um allows me to build a Linux image that fits in tens of megabytes if I want to um and uh and it it's all brought together with a system called open embedded uh open embedded is an integrated sort of package management SLU SL update deployment tool on top of angstrom we run webkit and then on top of that we we were putting our JavaScript widgets in GitHub so people want to widgets we just do a get pull and new widgets would arrive in a directory you could run them and get new content on the screen and finally we had an update server that we put in ec2 in the cloud and uh and incidentally everything below this stack is also open for this particular design you can go to my website you can download the fpj verog the PCB the Plastics you can build one yourself so the philosophy excuse me I live in Singapore so this is very dry for me I don't I don't have the ability to make mucus apparently anymore so um the uh development philosophy is we want to get people up and running in half an hour right uh one of the problems with building for arm platform is that the ARM device itself isn't powerful enough at least not until about today for you to really do a a kernel build on the machine I mean we can build a kernel on it but it takes like an hour or two it's really painful right um so you really want to have a cross compiler set up you want to have your Source control you want to build management all this sort of stuff if we tell someone hey you can go ahead and build an image it it will take them a minimum about a day or two to pull down all the source and build everything from scratch which is a really huge barrier because it turns what ought to be a weekend project into an epic task so our solution was we went and we tried to take all this package it up and put it into an Amazon ec2 image that anyone could then um you know sort of rent and and plug into so you would go ahead you could go ahead and grab your ec2 launch an Ami um it would come with its own little local git repo and uh there was a sort of wonderful sort of Auto build system so whenever you did a git commit it would go ahead and rebuild the image for you um and and spit out a ROM image the neat thing about this system is that once you actually SP a ROM image from your ec2 server and you image it onto a device that device is now key to look at your to your personal ec2 server for updates so now you actually have a fully production capable system you can go ahead and sell this device as long as you keep your E2 server up you can have a script on the inside checks for updates and all the units in the field will go ahead and grab updates from the server that you've that you've started from in a half an hour uh one of the problems is that actually uh well the system did enable a few more developers but one of the problems that EC inss are really really slow unless you pay a lot of money for them and uh the sort of a the developers sort of profile is they want like 16 cores for about 15 minutes and then they want no cores for like several hours so unfortunately ec2 was a really bad match for the problem because in order to get six in cores you're paying a shitload of money um and uh it's it's hard also to convince people to drop a credit card number into Amazon just to try out ec2 so they had these micro instances that were free but they they would they would crash all the time in building cuz they'd out of they'd run out of memory um and so we had a lot of people having a trying to convince them this was actually a good solution a lot of professional developers anyways prefer the roll their in Solutions like ah screw W you did I'll make my own build machine and um another amazing thing is that uh you know people who want to use a solution Hardware companies it was very hard to convince them how difficult it is to do update servers and to build their own updates they'll be like we'll just deploy a product and then updates will happen right they just get it from somewhere and I say well this is your own custom image we don't have your code we can't do these updates for you right and they would they just would not understand why it's not possible for me to push updates for them so in practice it didn't work out as well as we'd like it to and this one of the things I want to try to improve in the future for embedded development is how to get these things going I think there's actually some talks later on I saw on the list that may be actually talking about something like this I'll I'll be stopping in to hear it so um some the takeaways uh from this talk would be you know um if you're doing embedded Linux in computer electronics particularly here from my standpoint you know doing the hardware software co-integration it's a multivariable optimization a very quirky system for for many things cost cost is always King in hardware and you you have to really sort of fine-tune the balance of extra Hardware capability versus more software developers $2 will buy me twice as much RAM and if I'm going to sell 100,000 units it cost me that's $200,000 for the for for the life of the time of the product that only gets me like one or two software developers or something like that right so there's a of a a trade-off between how much RAM I put in a product versus how much I really want to make the software developers have to optimize their code um complexity uh is something that I really try to avoid so um I try to optimize my Hardware architecture choices to be as lazy as possible and to reduce software development risk um sustainability is always an important thing to remember so you have to have a a system and a way to do updates and patches for your for your Custom Distribution because essentially that's what it is for an embedded machine um and then enabling Community involvement is very important um I really like to get more people involved in the projects I do but you have to really uh bring a lot of people in who haven't necessarily done embedded development before who are interested in your product and so you have to package up an unusual system in a desktop friendly format and then finally you have to always keep in mind this time to Market you have to ship or die and

8QYmKuVqy6I | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8QYmKuVqy6I | •READING VLOG 14 (rants, unpopular opinions, books read...) | [Music] welcome back to the run one popular opinions and I'm pretty sure this is just going to be another Vlog now it's not going to be too long or it's not going to be too ranty hopefully like last time and I'll do my best not to lose any Clips or lose any audio now that we've obviously found an improvement I'm going to do my best not to lose it if anyone knows why certain Samsung phones just lose audio unless you restart them every couple days do let me know but at first we're going to talk about the book book that I've been reading for so long because it's apparently a thorn in my side at this point anyway Diana wi Jones is an author that I have a little bit of a mixed opinion on because I like howl but I don't think I would have liked howl as much had I not watched the film because her writing is just in a way overly simplistic like she is creative she is creative she's just simplistic where to the point where there's no Stakes like if you wanted to ask me what cozy fantasy was it would probably be something like this because there's no Stakes you can have chapters upon chapters of them just like doing laundry but the problem of no Stakes at least for me is that I don't really care like I don't really care this is the first book where how and Sophie aren't like in the center and we're going to get how and Sophie but this is the first book where where they aren't really that relevant and I don't care because like I don't have a basis for already liking these characters like I don't know them like I did how and Sophie because I had watched the jibli film now I don't mind Charmaine and I don't necessarily mind Peter the problem is that she does the exact same thing it's like annoyances to lovers where it's like these people irritate each other so much much that you struggle to explain to yourself why exactly there's supposed to be a couple so I'm having issues with it now how and Sophie in this book how and Sophie in this book I wish they weren't there like I hate them so much in this book I just wish they weren't there I feel like I would enjoy this so much more without that like I think I got like a chapter or two after how and Sophie showed up for the first time and I already don't want to read it because I know they're going to be present for the rest of the book I'm just not at all interested because the way they're written in this book is spoiler or not a spoiler I don't know but if you've watched the film or you've read the book you're going to know what I'm talking about slight spoilers I guess skip ahead after they get married they become the cliche horrible horrible couple where he's essentially useless and she's the one who's in charge of everything like they have a son now which I'm not even going to get into how the two of them should not be having children because howl is useless and she's mothering both of them like essentially howl and their son should be mothering them the exact same way like don't have a child if your partner is also a child you like you know what Trope I'm talking about like it's just not not fun to read about like how just keeps being whiny and bratty and just the whole chapter where it looked like he was another one of Sophie's children instead of Sophie Sophie's husband now that they also have an actual son it was just not fun she also takes his last name which I guess this was written a long time ago like why would she necessarily do that like this is a magical Society but yeah they've turned into the generic couple into the generic housewife who does everything and Manchild husband so it's a joy I wish they weren't here I genuinely wish they weren't here I think then I would be able to enjoy Charmaine and Peter but Peter is also just very irritating just I do like annoyances to lovers sometimes but to this extent I'm like if they do fall in love how like I feel like everything they say to each other is to provoke each other it's just such an irritating dynamic to read on the plus side Charmaine who's the main character of this book is a big reader so like there's a lot of book talk but I don't know what to say about this I was liking it until Sophie and how show showed up that's I guess all that we have to say the next book I'm going to talk about very briefly is the victory of eagles which is the next demare book I finally fixed up picked up the next book I didn't really want to if I'm going to be very honest but uh at least it's a breeze to get through like I'm already close to chapter 12 and I think chapter 13 is where part three gets started so I just have no words I just have no words for this series because at some point you'll be like that's precious I love the relationship with the dragons and then at another Point you're going to just be like why am I reading this who cares this is so poorly plotted it's very obvious someone told her that needs to be three parts and it needs to be roughly between 300 and 400 Pages like I feel like you can feel the filler like you can feel the filler in these nine books definitely like there's something she wanted to do in each book and you can feel the filler so it's fine though it's definitely fine I like the dragons I don't care about the humans I feel like I've stopped caring about Lawrence too after the end of book four so whenever the humans have have to do something or go somewhere without the Dragons I'm I'm skimming a lot I think that's why this is such a quick read because I am skimming I don't like her descriptions anymore I don't care about the people I just want to see what happens to the dragons and that's the extent of my care about any of this to be very honest I think that's it for what I'm reading right now I read Dune before I went to see the film and since I'm done with that I currently have no other required reads I going to walk you through what I'm reading passively what we are reading passively is mythology of Slavic people I'm not really going to translate it at the moment my brain isn't braining at currently but I'm reading like Slavic mythology I think this is like the most comprehensive version there's a lot of pictures there's a lot of it was dted the 60s and it's impossible to find like even in libraries it's like requests to be brought into library for you to read which is not something I'm interested in so I hunted down a PDF and I am going through the PDF currently I've done I think like the first couple Gods then we're going to move on but I find it fascinating like Collective Slavic mythology like genu cultural Slavic mythology not just religious is so fun to go through and for the first time probably ever I somewhat feel like close to my own Heritage which is good or bad I I don't know I don't care to that extent but it's interesting like it's the first time that I'm reading something to do with my people's history and I actually don't find that repulsive so it's a delight there's two of these I think I got both of them in the PDF so I'm slowly working through that I'm also obviously reading the Scottish myths and folktales which is my home away from home definitely not my Heritage but a home away from home so I'm reading that as well and it's fun to see how so many stories from so many cultures have so many similarities like it's we're all just one people and it is what it is aside from that I don't think there's anything else I'm like passively reading I think that's actually kind of it so let's just get into the video I'm going to update as I go along but since I don't have like actual University this semester I'm at home for all the papers that I have to do and everything I'm at home I don't have to go to university there's going to be a lot more downtime for me to read and write and I have been doing a lot of writing that's I think why my brain is feeling exhausted at present so let's see if I can actually film more than twice a month now that I have some time as a continuation I um I am still struggling with this I never thought I'd struggle this much with such a Whimsical book but I really am I just keep dreading that how and Sophie are going to come back and it's just I read quite a bit actually like I'm more than halfway through now and I'm still struggling with it let's just hope it gets a lot better I don't really even want to talk about it anymore I finished last em book now we're up to tongue of serpents which is book sticks in this series I've never been this deep into a series and not cared about the characters like I don't know why but after the first book and maybe the second my interest just plummeted for this series because I stopped finding any of it believable now I can get past plot holes when the series isn't that serious but I do have to like the characters I do have to like the characters and I don't like the character is in this and I feel like that's it's cardinal sin I don't care like except for like Timber and isera I don't care about anyone and what happens to them maybe like Maximus and Lily but they're barely present like it's one of those cute things where you're like oh dragon and then you're happy that the dragon's there but then you don't care about anything else just happens like I'm going to get through the next four books quickly probably because of all the skimming that I'm doing but it is what it is there's many other books that I actually want to read but I can't because I'm working through this and it's a little bit irritating but I also wanted to talk about something that I didn't even like mention before on my tablet I've been reading ebooks because I found only now I found a way to send e pubs to the Kindle app and I prefer the Kindle app as like a reading app because it has the page animation that is my sole reason for reading in the Kindle app I don't like reading ebooks as we well know but since books aren't arriving to me at present I can't order books and the books that I want to read aren't necessarily in bookstores or I don't want to buy them I am unfortunately literally forced to utilize the library and the ebook system which I'm not enjoying but I wanted to comment very quickly on Miss newberries list new what however you want to say it I don't care I keep trying out romances specifically historical because modern romance holds absolutely no appeal for me none so I keep trying historical romance and I never enjoy it now this isn't like a crime this isn't the police shouldn't get involved with this one it's perfectly fine in regards to that like it's not Bridgerton but it's still like I just know that I don't like this genre and I still keep reading it and there's something to be said about my reluctance to read other things if I keep doing this to myself now this book just reminds me of episode and I'll tell you immediately why and obviously as always it's your business what you read but if I'm salty about something that's just because I'm salty about it but romance books and why I dislike them it's not even the whole concept of the fact that you know how it's going to end episodes like that so many other books are like that I don't care about the element of surprise but the thing that I do hate is that it's always very obvious is going to be the love interest and the other love interest is almost never if ever a good person and it's dull it's just dull it's one of those things that's a very quick read but at the end you're kind of like how the hell did I spend my time like I knew what was going to happen start to finish and I feel like the entire genre is this way like minus the crime that happened in Bridgerton every single book is like this like you know exactly what's going to happen and when like there's a ball there's an inciting incident there's a near kiss but it's never a kiss because it's cheating if you have another fiance it's or you do cheat in other books like the whole genre is just wish fulfillment which is good for you I guess if the author wants to get that out there that's absolutely their business but for my personal consumption wish fulfillment offers me nothing absolutely nothing because as someone who has written fanfiction before and does write it sometimes for my own wish fulfillment I would never publish it unless it's specifically catered towards me that's my own personal problem with the genre unless it's specifically cater towards me or like the love interest is someone I'm attracted to and the main character is someone I can relate to unless it's that specific I don't care about it like I don't care about it these two for example want to have children I immediately don't care because if this is supposed to be wish fulfillment it needs to be personally relatable to me I didn't care about it I didn't care about either of their personal goals I didn't care about them having children in the end I didn't care about them falling in love because I didn't like either of them is just a very tricky genre Because unless the specific tropes tropes appeal to you the whole book will essentially be pointless because it's not about the story or about endgame or about a goal or about a message it's specifically about these two getting together so if you're not personally invested in either of them or their goals you're not going to care at least I'm not going to and let's say it did personally catered to me then my thought process would be but like what's the point of this like I could have written this I have written this like I have documents upon documents of stuff that caters to me and that's my own wish fulfillment but what purpose could I have from publishing that from making other people agree with my own personal Al wish fulfillment I this is just a little rant this is just a little rant about why I dislike their genre you're obviously allowed to do whatever you like I can't believe we have to keep apologizing like this as if our own personal opinions affect everyone in the world but yeah I'm not going to apologize again like I hate the genre and I think it's pointless and ridiculous and just no good but obviously if you're personally offended by that I I don't know what to tell you I'm go touch some grass get off the internet I don't know what to tell you so that is my opinion as it is so I read that and I probably shouldn't have read it because I thought it was a pointless time now let's get back to other books all in all I'm just not that thrilled with everything I'm reading right now and it makes me very [Music] sloggy [Music] I understand this is I understand this is still part of the same Vlog so it's kind of funny to be like putting on a whole outfit and whatnot but we need to speak about spring like I have been in such a spring mood that this is actually insane like flower crown the color yellow which I never wear a plant necklace like I'm going to go through the books in a minute this is not like a spring recommendations or anything I don't read books seasonally in general I read what I feel like reading but I've been in such a spring mood it is due to all the content that's been recommended to me obviously because everyone's currently in a spring mood however I do believe that there's just something in the air I don't really have spring so I'm sort of pretending that I do because as I said after global warming like where I live we used to have seasons we no longer do So currently it's either very cold like I'm feeling a little bit chilly now or it's very hot to the point of like it almost being summer I'm taking advantage of the chilly moments because I will not be in a good mood when I am hot so let's just use this time to pretend to have spring and I'm going to talk to you about the books because my TBR has been a bit of a mess like you saw me reading several books already in this video and I will quickly walk you through what you missed cheers anywh who now I'm going to just tell you what I've been reading I read a book that I gave one star like overall if you look at the quality of my reading for a little bit it's not good like even though I give the tamare books like four stars it's still not great like I don't care about those books the moment I finish them so this book is the bane of my existence it's not Monte Christ the level of I don't want to pick it up but it's up there like it's genuinely up there I I see it next to my couch and I immediately don't feel like reading now I didn't necessarily love how Moving Castle either but as we already mentioned I had somewhat of an attachment already to those characters now that I'm reading this without any attachment I can see how much I actually don't like the Cozy low Stak genre in general because nothing happens to make me like this these characters like all I see is their daily lives and that's essentially boring to me I don't get to know characters by just looking at their daily life which may seem contrary to what it's supposed to do I just don't like low stakes fantasy like actually non-existent Stakes fantasy because it's fluff and I don't necessarily like books that are solely fluff I just like fluff in books if that makes any sense so this hopefully will be finished very soon but I'm just putting it off like I'm already on 260 pages and and I'm still still not doing it I just wanted to mention this thing because I'm riding a a lot like genuinely now that I don't have University that I don't have to go to I've been writing like crazy and I constantly go through this this random book I think it's my mother's I think she got it for herself like one Christmas with a book of recipes or whatever but this isn't just recipes this is like information about the herbs and the plants and how they're used and what their benefits are considered to be I just find the cover beautiful to look at the entire thing is just so comforting and then there's recipes and there's beautiful images of like plants in there I just find it a joy to flip through it has that glossy paper that's like very very nice to the touch and then there's food I'm going to try and find something there's like pies and whatnot it's just a delight to flip through even though I only use it for writing like 2% of the time when I need to look up a plant or something now the next bit is just me whining about not having spring in my life but these covers of like the Poetry editions are gorgeous they're so springy to me I read a couple of the Emily Dickinson poems one night I literally just felt like reading poetry I picked it up and I like hunted down some poems that I felt like reading about March or April or spring in general and the this one is just stunning stunning I prefer him quite a bit I actually put some Taps to my favorite poems I love tennison's poetry I just love his articulation of the thoughts that he has is just lovely the two that I marked are of old SAT freedom on the Heights and I think it's nothing will die I love both of those poems and both of these just feel so much like spring to me so yeah poetry is the time now I do need to read this I've had this I want to say for two years because I know I bought it in Spring and then didn't read it in spring so it could be 2 years and it could be last year I don't know but I want to say 2 years it feels like last year is way too recent but the secret garden I want to read it it's extremely short there's no excuse not to read it I watched the film also like two years ago I think I bought this I think I bought this after after the film I need to read it in spring because like it's a garden there's flowers I really really need to read it so yes this is like on the agenda for this spring but I haven't touched it yet and again because we're not going to mention summer summer does not compute into my brain yet every time I think about the possibility of Summer I feel physically sick but every time in Spring this book calls out to me like I think I've read it we're not going to count the fact that I read it when I was a kid because I didn't remember anything I think I read it two or three times at this point I want to say three counting the ebook read through I definitely read this twice this Edition so three times I've already read this I read it every year the trilogy because it this is I guess the extent of cozy reading for me where there's no Stakes but the writing is just Pleasant and beautiful and I just like reading it I stret these out like over a couple months usually these three books because of how much I enjoy reading them I don't know I don't know I don't think it's the time yet but this Edition is also actually stunning like it flips very easily and comfortably it's such a beautiful book to read and I'm just it's very rare that a cozy book also has one of the best romances of all time now another thing is I got this I got like for my birthday it isn't my birthday yet but I got it like in advance because my store was going to run out I got the two Classics box sets where it's like little black Classics and and modern Classics and I like I've been reading through the black ones my dad's been reading through the Moder ones and we like go in order and then rate them and then we're going to make like the best average rating in the end I've been going through the little ones this one I have to read today which is this one that's the one that's slated for me today we'll see how I feel about it because if I don't like them if I feel like dnfing them I just read another one for that day because I like having one to read that day so if I haven't read one I'm just going to like go to the next one mine have mostly been excellent like very few I think one got a rating below four stars and I think I've dnfed two so far out of 10 which is great he has not had that luck he has dnfed four or five of the mo modern classic so we'll see how I feel about them mostly poetry and nonsense like that but this slated for today we're going to see how I feel about it like this obviously has nothing to do with spring or summer or anything this is just something that I got for my birthday and I'm going to read every single day so that's it for now as far as updates go I haven't been reading torare because I'm just unable to force myself to read it but also I got in the mail I got in the mail um the first volume of nuts and the fourth Naomi no but we'll not talk about that the first volume of nuts man I got in the mail after three three months four almost four months and I already got the refund and everything but I'm so happy I read it today I'm just so happy anytime I read or consume anything to do with this story there's differences to the anime so I really appreciated that and on that note watch that anime possibly now for the first time I watched it I think it was also like February to March of last year and it goes through all the seasons like there's snow there's spring there's summer but I feel like it's such a perfect winter to Spring read and I am slowly working through Seasons five and six because I refuse to finish my rewatch like I've been watching them before bed and I've been doing my utmost to slow down because I I physically can't can't comprehend not having a NAA episode to watch and like that's a tragedy the last thing I feel like discussing today is how horrible this book was now for the record the last year has been the first year in a long while that I've allowed myself to purchase books I know nothing about I mean I know something about but not a lot I haven't read reviews I haven't looked into the specifics and I haven't read the book online I am no longer doing that because this book was a one-star read it's not nowhere near Pillars of the Earth I feel like still that's the worst book I've ever read and that put me off buying books I know nothing about for like forever but this was like €10 like it was a n o okay price for a book that I don't know much about so I'm not that upset but my God was this bad I no longer intend to entertain the idea that anything exploding in the last few years is something worth my time like we've been through enough I think to give this up this book had unnecessary I mean unne Neary you can look at my good re review if you want details unnecessary animal death horrible horrible writing I feel like as someone who's been watching like crime shows police shows detective shows mystery shows all my life we've been watching a crap ton of them like in the last couple years in my house because like that's a genre that we can all watch this was just bad this was just bad unbelievable unrealistic Leaps and Bounds were made cons like contrivances conveniences it was just awful and there's one more important thing to say which is obviously that everyone says with a brain If you haven't watched Pretty Little Liar when you were younger good for you but for those of us who suffered through that fa days we didn't need a recap we didn't need a recap if this woman says she didn't base this off that show she's lying but that aside my biggest gripe was actually with the ending when the secondary like antagonist was introduced and explained their reasoning horrific horrific I kept expecting this one specific specific thing that would have not made the book better but definitely would have bumped it up to a two star it kept it resolutely out of one that last conversation with the secondary antagonist like I just shut down like I've just not had luck with new books with new books like I feel like everything that I bought on a whim has been one star and one book from the library that luckily I didn't buy but almost bought almost bought was also a one star I wouldn't have bought this if it was in the library but it wasn't in the library I just wanted to avoid reading the ebook so I was like what the hell €1 is a fine fine price enough enough like I haven't had this many one stars in a long while and that is just because I've been going off solely based off hype or reputation or what we're never doing that again we're never doing that again this was an atrocious book I do not want to ever mention it again I mean I may in a in a review or like in a wrapup or whatever but I I never want to speak of it again I don't think I even talked about the library book either so we're just going to do that really quick this was the library book like The Binding I almost bought it but like at the last minute my brain was like remember Pillars of the Earth and I put it down in the bookstore and I went to the library to borrow it thank God I did thank God I this book is a different sort of crime to the last one to Good Girls guide to murder because this book lies to you this book is comparable to strange the dreamer level of lies to you about its genre now I know these people are ashamed of writing romance borderline smut and of just like letting loose and writing a romance I know they are ashamed of that so they get these pretty flowery recovers and strange the dreamer has beautiful additions and they look stunning so a fantasy reader can pick them up beled into a false sense of security in like the first third of the book with like beautiful writing flowery writing like effort put into the magical plot and then the rest is a romance and not a good one in both cases like not just please be brave enough to stick within your genre and of lying to people nowhere on this book or in the marketing of the book or in the description of the book does it say that this entire book is just a romance the rest of the plot doesn't matter isn't addressed isn't really discussed even and the two characters in the end are horrible people if you look at the implications of what they did just just awful awful also onar like I said I don't give one Stars often unless something personally offends me like Cersei or like crooked Kingdom or Pillars of the Earth but these last two books deserved their one stars for how poorly they were marketed just for how poorly they were marketed and presented to people like no one in their right mind should actually read this unless what they're looking for is a romance and I need to shout it from the rooftops this was horrific the moment I realized where it was going I tuned out like I didn't really pay attention I just skimmed I looked at the paragraphs that seemed intriguing like a bit and I read the dialogue it was horrific horrific so yeah these last two books were just an embarrassment and a solid reason as to why look into books before you read them I think maybe you have to risk spoilers to actually know what you're getting into I'm a huge spoiler fan I will read spoilers before books and will either completely turn me off or get me to want to read it even more because sometimes it's more stressful to see how the spoilers fit in than actually finding out the spoilers I don't know what to tell you except for Mysteries obviously I'm not going to spoil myself about a mystery that's the entire point of the genre so now that I'm done with the rant I think I'm going to end the Vlog here on a very sour note actually so I feel like I've been reading such crap me mediocre books for a while now like manga here and there and like decent enough Classics and a passable Tamor rare are not something to get me excited about reading like these are usually my best reading months but I feel like I've had such Duds that I've lost faith in the entire in the entire thing so I need like a banger of a book to actually get me excited again like at the moment I'm not slumpy because I'm actually in a huge reading mood and writing mood and because I'm out of uni but I feel like I'm not enjoying reading itself if that makes sense because I assume that everything's either going to be mediocre or passively okay which is not what you're looking for like I want to be wow not necessarily because I need to be wow constantly that happens very rarily maybe like once or twice a year but I've been so let down I don't remember the last time I gave this many one stars like so close together I need something to wow me to remember what good writing actually feels like so that's kind of it I will see you in the next video and please read good [Music] books | Wheel Of Tomes | UCKcAmmRC7qtd--oHzLbZhfg | 2024-03-20 | Creative Commons Attribution license

WCLl3-G6yBw | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WCLl3-G6yBw | Writing Persuasive Messages | Business and Technical English Writing | ENG201_Lecture21 | [Music] lecture 21 asalam alikum welcome to the virtual University's course on business and Technical Communication in this Le leure we will learn to strengthen your persuasive message with an appropriate appeal we'll also look at how to gain credibility by supporting your persuasive message with relevant facts and how to use attention interest desire and action uh the Ida plan to organize persuasive messages we'll also look at uh how to write a message persuading your audience to take action or to Grant you an adjustment and how to design a sales letter around selling points and benefits when we talk of motivating with persuasive messages then in business terms the term persuasion means to uh influence an audience by informing them about something and by aiding their understanding by helping them to understand something and then leaving them free to make their choice but once you've given them the information that will help them in making a choice there you are giving the information in such a way that the you are hoping that the choice that they will make will be the choice that you want them to make ethical business people inform customers of the benefits of a product or an action so that customers can recognize how well that product or action will fill a need that these customers truly have so it's just by informing how a need is going to be fulfilled that is how you are actually motivating people or persuading people to to um buy a product or take a particular action your uh consideration of customer needs is more than ethical it is the proper use of persuasion also it's more likely that this consideration of customer needs it will evoke U the desired response from your customers and colleagues if you let them know that you're actually aware of their needs then they are more likely to uh respond to you the way you want them to respond um since persuasive messages aim to influence audience who may resist as well uh who may not be very open to the ideas that you're trying to sell them therefore uh persuasive messages depend heavily on strategic planning response so before you begin to write a persuasive message ask yourself what you're writing about who you're writing to and what you want to happen as a result message when you're uh analyzing your audience take into account their cultural expectations what they expect from you the expectations might be different uh in one culture from another culture and also their practices what they do in different cultures as well if you're writing across cultures so that you don't undermine your persuasive message by using an inappropriate appeal or by organizing your message in such a way that it seems unfamiliar or uncomfortable so keep in mind the audience's cultural perceptions as well when you organizing your message when you're writing persuasive messages uh you need to keep four things in mind about your audience and these are needs and appeals emotion and logic credibility and semantics let's have a look at each of these um individually needs and appeals what do we mean when we talk about the audience's needs and appeals some researchers believe that certain needs have priority and that the most basic needs such as Safety and Security must be met before a person will seek to fulfill higher level needs such as esteem and Status um but you need to keep in mind that PE different people have different needs and everyone's needs differ so people respond differently to Any Given message and based on that based on what their needs are you will uh organize your message for example not everyone is interested in economy or fair play some people's innermost needs uh make appeals to status and greed much more effective so if you know that these people have their uh what is more important to them is status or greed then you will make an appeal accordingly to accommodate these individual differences you need to analyze the members of your audience and then construct a message that appeals to their needs to be now another thing that we mentioned was emotion and logic When people's needs are not being met they're likely to respond emotionally for example a person who lacks a feeling of selfworth is likely to be sensitive to the tone of uh respect uh in a message a collection letter to such a person carefully avoids any hint that the person might be considered dishonorable because you realize that that person lacks self-worth and they're more likely to feel uh sensitive about uh anything that you say and they're more likely to read more into a message which even hints at them being dishonorable um although emotional issues can be a pitfall for person uve messages emotional issues mes uh but you can actually call on human emotion as long as your emotional appeal is subtle if you are not using a very obvious emotional appeal then you can uh with a subtle emotional appeal you can actually reach out to your audience you can make use of the emotions surrounding certain words for instance uh uh the word Freedom brings forth strong feelings such and also uh words such as success Prestige Credit record Etc all these evoke strong feelings strong emotions amongst the readers so you can you can make use of these words to make sure that you are actually uh using this right type of appeal to um to reach out to their needs now emotion and logic work together in a unique way uh people need to find rational support for an attitude that they've already em embraced emotionally so if they if people have an attitude uh they have an emotion that you're aware of then those people are trying to find a logical appeal to that uh need as well and to help satisfy this need a logical uh appeal calls on human reason now the third thing that we looked at we were going to look at is credibility cred your credibility is your capability of being believed because you're reliable and because you're worthy of confidence Ines for you to persuade a skeptical or hostile audience members the audience must believe that you know what you're talking about and that you're not trying to misle them one of the best ways to gain credibility is to support your message with facts testimonials documents guarantees statistics research results Etc Are all uh facts information material that provide seemingly objective evidence for what you have to say so so they make your message more credible so if you include any of these as appropriate then your message is likely to come across as being more credible and consequently you are likely to come across as being a more credible person obviously if for example you are using statistics that are not relevant to the message that you have to give then they will not really do much to add to your credibility so you have to add information add facts that are relevant to the information that you're giving out and also if you're using any sources or if you've referred to any sources or you've gained your information from somewhere else then it helps to name your resources especially if they are respected by your audience because then you are showing your audience how credible you are and that these even the people that you are consulting or the sources that you are Consulting are credible as well it helps uh put you in the same bracket as those sources and it gives you more credibility as well other ways of gaining credibility are being enthusiastic your excitement about the subject of your message can infect your audience if you are enthusiastic then your audience will be enthusiastic as well um also being sincere your honest genuiness uh good faith and truthfulness helps you focus on your audience's needs if you come across as being sincere then the audience feels that you are aware of their need and you are actually sincere to their needs as well also if uh the audience perceives of you as being an expert your knowledge of your messages subject area or even of some other area helps you give your audience the quality information necessary to make a decision so if you are an expert then obviously you will have more credibility because you can give out the relevant and correct information you are also credible if if you have good intentions your willingness to keep your audien's best interest at heart helps you to create persuasive messages that are ethical so if you really have your audien's good will at heart and your intentions are really good then your messages will your persuasive messages will obviously come across as being ethical if you are trustworthy uh you are honest and dependable then that can also help you get your audien's respect also if you can establish Common Ground if your beliefs attitudes and background experiences are like those of your audience then you can help your audience identify with you you and your audience can actually share common ground and uh if you feel that you think similarly about certain things then you can actually use that to your benefit and to uh stress your credibility now lastly uh the last thing that we need to keep in mind or the final thing that we need to keep in mind is semantics the words you use or the words you choose to State your message say much more than their dictionary definitions depending on what you want to say you need to choose the right word for example useful beneficial and advantageous may be considered synonyms they all have the same meaning yet these three words are not interchangeable you cannot use any of these uh you cannot say that I will use either one or the other and the meaning will remain the same let's have a look at what I mean if you say she suggested a useful compromise then what you're implying is that the compromise allowed the parties to get to work it was useful and work could begin um on the other hand if you're saying she she suggested a beneficial compromise then you're implying that the compromise not only revolved but also had a positive effect perhaps for both parties it was beneficial and perhaps it was beneficial for both um in the third uh instance if you're saying she suggested an advantageous compromise then you're implying that the compromise benefited her the person who suggested it or her company much more than it benefited the other party so although all of these uh use ful beneficial advantageous all of these have a similar meaning they use makes their meaning very different so you need to be careful of that as well what are what is the word you're choosing and what is the implication of choosing that particular word another way semantics can affect positive uh persuasive messages is the variety of meanings that people attribute to certain words uh they this means that there may be Words which can have more than one one meaning multiple meanings on so you need to make sure that you are actually choosing a word where the meaning in which it is to be used is clear because abstractions are subject to interpretations because they refer to things that people cannot experience with their senses as well also you need to keep in mind that abstractions are subject to interpretations because they refer to things that people cannot experience with their senses so basically if you're talking of abstract things if you're talking of things which are not tangible then you need to be very careful in how you refer to them because they uh will have they will be interpreted differently by different people different me you may be able to sell more Flags by appealing to your audience's patriotism which may be interpreted in many ways uh then by describing the color and size of the flags for example patriotic emotions for example big J you may for ex also have better luck collecting an overdue bill by mentioning honesty and fair play Then by repeating the sum owed and the date on which it was due now if say you are collecting agency or if you are providing a service for which you have not been paid the bill is overdue it would be more persuasive if you wrote to the customer and talk to them about fair play and honesty and just mention the amount and when it was due rather than stressing on the amount and when it was due because and by that you are actually putting your customer at guard and you're putting them off but if you're uh talking about honesty and fair play then you are uh actually reaching out to their need to be approved of and everybody wants to be seen as an honest person tax [Music] paying it will have a more positive effect now you need to also remember that when you're organizing uh persuasive messages persuasion requires the indirect approach goodwi messages messages one specialized version of the indirect approach is the Ida plan these are this uh basically means attention interest desire and action in the attention phase you convince the audience right at the beginning that you have something useful or interesting to say you don't say what it is but you catch their attention you uh let them know that what is to be followed will be interesting and useful the audience wants to know what's in this message for me so you will try to tell them without making extravagant claims or threats and without bringing up irrelevant points the for example if you say something like you've mentioned several times in the past two weeks that that constructing an employee schedule becomes increasingly difficult let me share an idea that could substantially reduce the time you spent making and revising the schedule now in this uh message as you see you are actually as the writer you're actually letting them know letting the reader know that you're going to be sharing an idea that will reduce their time uh on on something in doing something so you are actually catching the audien's attention and letting them know that what will follow will be beneficial to the audience in the interest phase you explain how your message relates to the audience you will continue the theme that you started with and by that doing that you paint a more detailed uh picture with your words your goal is to get the audience thinking this is an interesting idea couldn't it possibly solve my problems so in the uh attention phase you've identified what it is that you're going to be talking about you've caught the audien's attention in the interest phase you are now getting them interested in your way of thinking and you are actually um getting them slightly getting them a bit towards where you want them to be for example um you if you say something like Incorporated magazine ran an article in the July 2 issue about a scheduling concept called Flex time it gives employees leeway to schedule their own work within certain guidelines two companies Prof profiled in the article were having problems as we have been with late arrivals long lunches early departures and too many sick days they found it nearly impossible to set up a schedule everyone would adhere to however once these companies instituted Flex time their problems practically disappeared mage F now this interest section ties together a factual description and the benefits of instituting this Flex time uh program also the benefits relate specifically to the attention phase that came ear to this paragraph that we looked at earlier as well and even though the flex time system might help improve employee morale that benefit is secondary to the main interest of the intended audience and that is to reduce the frustration of devising useless schedules and therefore employee morale is not mentioned the third phase the desire phase of a persuasive message you back up your claims and thereby you increase your audience's interest and your audience's willingness to take the action that you'll suggest in the fin in the next section so you're making sure that you are backing your claims claim when whatever you use to prove your claim make sure that the evidence is directly relevant to your point don't use evidence that is irrelevant now as you see in this example the writer has continued uh talking about what he was talking about about earlier the he's refer still referring to the articles that were profiling uh the companies that had adopted flexi time and here he says one of the people interviewed in the article the head of manufacturing for a$1 million company said I seem to be spending all my time making schedules and then tearing them up now I let my employees figure out their own schedules I have more time to oversee the work that's being done and to track the quality of the products we ship information ke of manur this company had a flexy time program in full operation within 3 months of deciding to start attached is a copy of an article about the fact to consider before going to flex time and the three steps involved in instituting it now whatever detail was further necessary to actually implement the program has been attached it has not been listed detailed in this letter because there then the letter would become too long so the attached information has been given as an attachment and it has been referred to in the letter in the action uh part you suggest the action you want your audience to take all persuasive messages end with a section that urges specific action but the ending is more than a statement such as Institute this program as soon as possible or send me a refund that you need to give much more than that in fact this section offers a good opportunity for one last reminder of the main benefit that the audience will have from taking the action that you want them to take message closing section let's meet early next week in Brackets Monday 3 p.m. with a question mark because the uh writer is not sure if that time is actually convenient to his colleague or not to to see how we might Implement a flex time schedule with a little bit of extra effort now you could soon be concentrating on something more important than scheduling so here the writer is suggesting action he's suggesting time for a future meeting where they could discuss adopting this procedure because obviously he's trying to persuade the reader to adopt Flex time and again he in the end he also gives one last benefit one key benefit that the reader will have more time if he adopts Flex time uh scheduling now many persuasive messages are written to solicit funds favors information or cooperation and in an organization persuasive techniques are often required to get someone to change policies or procedures to spend money on new equipment for example and uh service to promote a person or to protect uh for territory with of of a person within an organization so all these could be different reasons for writing a persuasive message within an organization there's a difference between internal persuasive messages and external persuasive messages internally within an organization personal messages persuasive messages uh function or external persuasive messages function organization formal an external persuasive message is one of the most difficult persuasive tasks you can undertake firstly people are busy so they're reluctant to do something new it takes time and um it offers no guarantees of a reward in return they don't know you they need to take out a lot of time to actually uh take the action that you want them to take secondly uh there a lot of competing requests a lot of for example if you look um trying to persuade a company an or somebody who is not part of your organization but somebody outside of your organization to give you funds then that person might have a lot of other people requesting him or her for funds as well so you'll have a lot of competition and in fact public relations Departments of many large corporations receive so many requests for donations to worthy causes that they sometimes resort to lotteries to decide which one to support they'll just take a pick uh uh do a lucky dip and decide which one to um give the money to or give the donation to rather than actually looking at each application or each request separately so uh in that sense then your persuasive message tends to be more difficult to write if it is to solicit uh funds or favors from an outside organization if you're lucky the company might believe in the project or cause that you're uh trying to persuade them about and also they might feel that it gives them some benefit to be involved in that or to uh comply with your request as well and that then is the best use of your persuasive meage that then it's the best result you can hope from your persuasive message also uh this is more um effective in the case of requests for professional favors or information uh because people may believe that they're obliged to pay their dues by helping others also when you're making a persuasive request take special care to highlight direct and indirect benefits to the reader direct benefits might include a reduced workload for a supervisor who institutes Flex time or a premium for someone who response to a survey indirect benefits might include better employee morale or The Prestige of giving free workshops to small businesses uh in this case also better employee morale for the um when you want to write a persuasive message for action or a persuasive request for Action then the attention getting device at the beginning of a persuasive request for Action is uh usually shows the reader that you know something about his or her concerns and that you have some reason for making such a request and in this type of a persuasive message more than in most others a flattering comment about the reader is acceptable especially if that comment is sincere the body of the letter or memo covers what you know about the problem you're trying to solve with your readers help it talks about the facts and figures the benefits of uh helping the benefits to your reader and also your experience in attacking or tackling the problem the goal is to give you and your request credibility to make the reader believe that helping you will indeed help solve a significant problem the most important thing to remember when writing a persuasive request action is to keep your request within bounds nothing is so distressing as a request so generally all encompassing or so inconsiderate that it seems impossible to Grant no matter how worthy the cause is request also be careful not to Doom your request to failure by asking your readers to do all the work for you U don't ask your leer to provide all the information that you need because just because you're too lazy to uh to seek that information or to spend uh time to save you from embarrassment or inconvenience or to provide to financial support for a cause that nobody else is supporting if because if you're make if you're going to make these kind of unrealistic and um inconsiderate requests then obviously your request is bound to fail now another type of persuasive uh letter is a sales letter by and large sales letters are written by specialized and highly skilled professionals the letter sales letter comes in letter size or larger envelopes with brochures or without brochures and you as a skilled professional letter writer sales letter writer need to know the laws that govern sales letters because this can help you avoid serious legal problems if you do not know the laws of uh writing sales letters then you need to familiarize yourself with them um also you need to be very very clear that making a false statement in a sales letter is fraud if the recipient can prove a that your intent was to deceive or that you made the statement regarding a fact rather than an opinion or a speculation uh the the false statement or that the recipient was justified in relying on the statement and also if if the recipient was damaged by the statement then all this amounts to fraud or even one of these if this even one of these can be proven then they amount to fraud also using a person's name photograph or Identity or any other form of identity in a sales letter without permission from that person constitutes invasion of privacy there are some exceptions but generally if you are going to be using uh any person to promote your uh product then you need to have their permission written permission to use their name or Identity or photograph in your uh promotional material or your sales letter because without this it is invasion of privacy which is illegal uh there are exceptions for example using the photos of members of a local uh cricket team or football team in um in a mailing may be legal if the team members of are public figures in the community but otherwise uh you will need specific permission from people legal problems can also result from publicizing a person's private life in a sales letter for example stating that the president of a local bank and if you're mentioning that bank by name served 6 months in prison for income tax is potentially is a potentially damaging fact to that person and to that bank uh and this may be considered invasion of privacy even if that bank is your rival and you want to show how much better you are ethically and how much better your the uh your organization and the people working in your organization you cannot malign other people by even if what the what you are talking about is true when you're planning sales letters you need to keep in mind three steps and these are similar to those involved in planning any other persuasive message you need to determine the main idea in sales letters it revolves around a selling point and the related benefits you need to define the audience and you need to choose the approach and format now the main idea the determining the selling points and benefits selling points are the most attractive feature of a product whatever it is that is most attractive about a product is what becomes it selling point consumer benefits are the particular advantages that buyers will realize from these features features uh for example one selling point of a personal computer might be its numeric keypad um the consumer benefit of this selling point is that the user doesn't need a separate calculator or the skill to type numbers on the regular keyboard so obviously you can't write about selling points or benefits without a thorough understanding of your subject so um selling point the first step in writing uh any sales letter then is to take a good look at the product product ask yourself or someone else if necessary everything you think a potential buyer might want to know about your product information and this uh defining of the audien's needs is basically defining the audience you uh once you are aware of their needs then you will Define uh the audience in terms of who the audience is who are the type of people who will be buying your product uh marketers seek to Define consumers in terms of demographics which means age gender occupation income and education and also in terms of psychographics which means personality attitude and Lifestyles psych a attitudes personality beliefs Lifest demographics psychs side by side in this lecture we learned to strengthen persuasive messages with the appropriate appeal we learned how we can gain credibility by supporting our persuasive messages with relevant facts irrelevant facts include interest desire or action the Ida plan Aida plan uh so that we can organize our persuasive messages according to this plan we also talked about writing a message to persuade your audience to take action or to Grant a request uh or to Grant an adjustment and we looked at how to uh do that what kind of language to use what kind of layout to use and we looked at how to design a sales letter around selling points and benefits of the product we looked at defining the audience and keeping in mind the audience their demographics and their psychographics how we would uh sell a product to that audience with this we

4iMjggApWWQ | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4iMjggApWWQ | Will Stocks Sell-Off Again Today? | [Music] okay very good morning it is friday 12th of june i'm anthony chung the head of market analysis here at amplified trading i'm going to talk about really only one thing and that is what happened in the markets yesterday we had one of the biggest down days in 12 weeks in the u.s equity market the biggest downward fall in oil in one day in six weeks all of this predominantly coming on the back of renewed fears of a second wave for the covet 19 virus so the big question now is where do we go from here there's a couple of news articles for me to get you up to speed on statistics as well about the new race or case numbers pertaining to some of the biggest u.s states like california texas and florida for example and then hopefully i can give you a bit of an outlook about what my thoughts are and what i'm watching for not just today but going forward on this particular topic don't forget to check out amplifytrading.com should be some links down at the bottom of this video and happy for you to explore and see in more detail what we do and don't forget to subscribe to the channel eddie is going to be releasing a new video and no doubt he'll be talking about things like the probability of a second wave and what size and what form and what speed might that take so that'll be a great video to for you guys to watch at the weekend but having a look then at the first chart and what we've got here is the s p 500 posting its worst loss of course since march after falling for a third day but obviously the size of the fall was much larger than what we had seen in the prior two sessions and this often is the case you know when there is a kind of flash point a catalyst and yesterday certainly that was what i was talking about in the briefing yesterday which was this renewed uptick in some of these key uh geographic areas within america which have more higher densely populated kind of regions and it does kind of manifest itself you know we've had some interesting things you know in regard to the amount of retail participation we've had in this continuous stock market rally i was looking at uh inflows into equity uh in the bank of america weekly survey was up quite sharply so it's when everyone it always seems to be the case that when everyone gets quite one-dimensional in a view that it does mean that markets do remain then quite susceptible to an aggressive pullback if then markets start to come down to a certain point obviously for some people that becomes an offside position too much and getting out of that then long means more shorts get it gets kind of get pushed in uh to exit the position then the market just goes down and down and and it almost becomes self-fulfilling then people jumping on it riding the coattails of that momentum and certainly it kind of felt a little bit like that yesterday it was kind of as a curve instead of it being just like a headline and the markets went down it was kind of a progressive move as we went through the the kind of session um so you know i guess the question is then where do we go from here but you know a few things to have a look at in terms of a day like yesterday the selling does tend to be quite broad um you know if you're talking about something like a a virus you know don't forget it's not just the virus and the sell-off the the reasoning behind this is is that you know if the virus does pick up then we're going to have to go back into lockdown and it's the lockdown in itself which is going to have the harshest economic consequence and that would need to be factored in given the market's relative complacency in how it was positioned prior to yesterday given the fact that we hadn't really seen what we are now seeing which is a pickup in some of these numbers in the key areas particularly in the us so selling was quite broad based i'd say some of the biggest losers in this respect were airlines crews and travel shares as you can imagine they're the ones that are most kind of sensitive and would be most fearful then as an investor that they're going to get hit once again should this virus start to significantly increase total numbers uscdc reported that kovic 19 cases rose by 20 486 the previous figure was 17 376 so yeah quite a distinct pick up there in particular um this is what we're looking at with the airline stocks and this is going to form part of my overall view i'll give towards the end of this this delivery but this was looking at airline stocks tumble after their best 10-day gain on record and for me that's that actual sentence is quite telling because you know you last night i was getting a flurry of texts the market was coming off um and it's such a weird thing the kind of human psyche because if when we were in march that was the type of movement that we were seeing on a consecutive daily basis but because it's been so calm people almost are so uh the human brain gets so into a routine and we've been in this period of just quite a one-dimensional rally of sorts and we get one down day of six percent and everyone thinks the world's coming to an end and i do you know saying this to some of the guys yesterday human nature is to over interpret and you do see that very much in a behavioral pricing in markets uh quite a mirror image of that you know whenever there's talk of a vaccine markets just start rallying straight away even though we know that that's very unlikely to be the case anytime soon it doesn't matter you know and so in a similar case i'm kind of feeling slightly similar and i see graphs like this and you know people talk about the airline stocks getting hammered and sure they did yesterday but you know it did come in context of the best 10-day game they've ever had in their entire lifetime so you know if you look where it puts us it puts us right back to where i feel is a more relevant pricing realistically for the threat of a second wave i think i've been fairly consistent with my view that this was always the biggest it's kind of tangible risk for markets and it was always something which inevitably was going to happen the second wave it was just about when and how large and significant it's going to be and this is obviously the first glimmer that we've had of it being potentially outside of what markets were were expecting so a pull back down you know in a simple technical way if you were just drawing a horizontal line through the march and april highs retested again in late may then we're pretty much back to that point for me i'd say well that's pretty fair game because you know yes we're possibly off the lows but we're nowhere near um out of the out of the forest yet that is the the kind of covered woods so yeah still some way to go but i yeah i don't think i'm quite ready to hit the red button yet and and panic's about to break out and so yeah i think this this chart was quite telling given that was one of the sectors which was hardest hit yesterday of course who is saying what well you can imagine given the fact that we had the federal reserve meeting which came just a few hours before then we had this run down into asia and then the u.s sell-off unsurprisingly donald trump tweeting yesterday the reserve federal reserve is wrong so often i see the numbers also and do much better than they do we will have a very good third and a great fourth quarter one of the best years ever in 2021 we'll also soon have a vaccine therapeutics cure that's my opinion watch so again very much tactical you know is this market moving no is this to be expected yes this is kind of trump's way you know if it's not the chinese virus then it's powell's fault so this is just one of those um political moves in order to pass accountability and cause a diversion away from any responsibility of the u.s administration so yeah i'm afraid jerome's got another tough weekend under fire he's in the crosshairs again of the u.s president uh for the time being um interestingly as we've said before you know the trade war really has gone quite quiet and that is quite often the case when there's there's other dramatic things that have been happening like the riots and now the moves that we've had and and given the timing i think it was probably more appropriate to to trump to try and connect that to the fed i'm sure that china will also be in the spotlight this weekend and trump will be will be banging that drum uh interestingly north korea have come out overnight and they said relations with the u.s have currently shifted to despair and the u.s is hell-bent on exacerbating tensions furthermore as stated u.s policy proves the u.s remains a long-term threat and they see no improvement in relations in maintaining the trumpkin relationship so that's that sounds pretty frightening if you're not really used to that kind of commentary and its impact on markets but it won't have any impact you know this is all kind of the verbal posturing of which these two nations typically do to one another the point that i thought was quite interesting was more to do with the fact that the recent deterioration in the trade war there's a direct correlation between tensions in north korea in the u.s that is quite a good barometer then of whereabouts the trade talks dialogue is between the us and china because even though north korea kind of acts independently we know that you know they're a geographic neighbor of china they're heavily dependent on this relationship in particular and so it's almost like china likes to play out a bit of a proxy war via the verbal um kind of rhetoric coming out of north korea as being quite a typical pattern but as i said hasn't really had any impacts and i wouldn't expect it to the other thing then is oil prices um oil dives the most in six weeks exposing fragile recovery again with oil you know it's all about this kind of perception of supply and demand it's all been supply focused of late really quite recently cristobal that tropical storm going through the gulf of mexico but more so the opec plus deal that they've managed to roll over for another month but this is more on the the demand side of course and this is what caused uh was at the heart of some of the dramatic drop that we were seeing just a few months ago so yeah definitely oil also ripe for a bit of an extension of the profit taking having run up to around that gap fill from that marched opec disappointment that we had and we got close to forty dollars so yeah down fairly heavy yesterday down about a dollar again today um maybe worth just keeping on as we go through the the rest of the session um yeah on the the covered front there's a couple of things then to get you up to speed on um first of all uh let me let me talk about a couple of case rates for a second i know this graphic is a bit small to see but um to make this a bit more clear you've got california texas florida and new york so there's a distinct pattern here actually the three largest population areas i the top three you can see on the seven day moving average has been edging up and in the case of florida quite sharply over the course of since the beginning of the month now quite a few people were asking the questions of you know a lot of these nationwide outbreak of riots that we've had over recent weeks uh is this the is this the the kind of culprit to blame for this new pickup in the transmission cases but um there's no real evidence that i've seen that would suggest that nothing really concrete um certainly as we were saying at the time it would make sense that potentially people would be more at risk and the nature of the virus then you know once that r value goes over one then it can grow exponentially very quickly but you know think about it these economies given that they're some of the largest kind of regional based economies in the united states it's very important then for trump to try and force through and get these areas open reopened as quickly as possible and as we had known that was always going to come at a at a certain cost a risk and and certainly that's what you're starting to see the first kind of science potentially of that because if you actually look we were generally i mean just taking uh california for an example california was was kind of flat lining up until the middle of may but it was in fact the middle of may of course when the um the loosening started to happen obviously in a very staggered and phased fashion but you can see here in the cases of these other areas particularly florida is really ramped up more aggressive and that's why it tends to kind of raise more eyebrows given the acceleration that it's had and in fact it's over and above now the peak of what we were seeing right in the midst of the first phase of the acceleration um back in kind of late march early april new york much more contained in that respect but new york has been kind of pushing back quite aggressively against the president whereas some of these other states uh probably lesser extent and there is a consequence to that type of action um to give you some some numbers uh florida reported 69 069 cases up two and a half percent from a day earlier compared to an average increase of two percent over the previous seven days california rose 2.3 compared to an average of 2.1 over the seven days uh arizona utah new mexico all posting a jump of 40 or more for the week new cases in florida uh arkansas south korea north korea all rose by more than 30 in the past week so yeah it was it's interesting how obviously markets work you know did some of those charts as you as you saw were already on the incline but it just takes that kind of a little bit of interest and enough market participants then to start turning their head and post then a big event like fed uh and what's going to be interesting today is even though i've kind of insinuated that perhaps then i'm not yet in panic mode and 4c then by default a continuous aggressive sell-off the only thing that does concern me is that today is a friday and just given what happened yesterday i'm not sure how confident people would be to want to hold on to a position going into the weekend if that does create a little bit of kind of clearing the deck into the weekend then perhaps you could see just one more day of selling off and perhaps monday then lies an opportunity for a bit more of a bounce and consolidation not full recovery because i think now the markets have kind of woken up and smelt the coffee a little bit more about the risks associated with the second wave so yeah i do feel like potentially there could be a little bit more legs in it for today before then things might start to stabilize and that purely being on the basis that i don't think people want to carry risk into the weekend this is one of the other final points on the covered side houston area officials i believe this area in the u.s is the fourth largest area in terms of population so obviously very important they're getting close to reimposing stay at home orders and they're prepared to reopen a covet 19 hospital that was built into a football stadium but was never actually used in the end so again you know in terms of markets sensitivity to this from a kind of sequence point of view and to ascertain its economic impact you know houston being the fourth largest city in america then closing down and kind of reversing some of the reopening that we've had and reissuing stay at home orders is going to have a detrimental effect to their economy and that's particularly important given the size and its contribution to the overall us output so these are the sort of reasons underlying why the market was was so aggressively hit yesterday um quick look then elsewhere um well actually one thing i just quickly want to say as well the other thing i saw sam was was tweeting last night when the market was coming off what's the 200-day moving average um you can see we we did break through it but we closed what it looks like right on the 200 dma so perhaps again that's a pretty good marker from a technical point of view beyond that point i don't really see too much in the way of any real technical area of firm support until we we would come back down to 29.65 so i'd probably look at it that way for today um the 200 dma will either be the line in the sand and we'll hold some price up for today but if we did retest the downside then i do think we could see another heavy day of selling and that could push us back down you know another 60 points or so so not to the tune of what we had yesterday by any means but that would be a kind of logical target there if we were to retest uh yesterday's lows push through that 200 daily moving average and then get down to that marker i'd be keeping an eye there all right away from equities and away from covid let's just quickly talk about a few other things brexit this isn't moving markets what is moving fx markets is the dollar remember what we've been saying of late from a sentiment point of view the dollar has kind of taken that that reserve currency status and so whenever you get a real run on equities like we had yesterday and you get a kind of flight to quality bid and things like gold and t-notes the dollar is strengthening at this point in time so people aren't you know reading into it as a as a kind of pressure on the fed to do some sort of monetary easing response they're looking at it as in right it's just a clear case of risk and when there's risk off the dollar strengthens and it's drawn strengthened aggressively yesterday and it's it's kind of held on to a bulk of that it's come off a little bit from the highs but it's basically flat in a dixie but that means that both eurodollar and cable are still slightly depressed at the moment if you look at cable just before i get into some of the headlines i guess there's a couple of areas if we start to move back higher that could be quite interesting uh probably here and then these these kind of push back higher so if i just put an ellipse you've got the kind of areas here from the oats from the morning high that we had and rejection you got these previous highs and if we continue to push up higher the pivot level as well does encapsulate some of that price activity although be a bit shopping around where we were trading um yesterday afternoon that be contingent though on the recovery of course in terms of general market sentiment and if the dollar was to push back down then you'd be looking for those types of levels but from the brexit side of things nothing really new but definitely a few things to be aware of um given there's a european eco-fin meeting today uk government this is in the ft reportedly will formally rule out a brexit deadline extension today so they're going to stick to their guns and as what we've been saying before it's probably too early for them to start really compromising to the degree of bending over to get a deal done right now that's just not how negotiations are done as we know they're going to push it right to the end so that's not too surprising but what they did say is that they plan a temporary light touch customs checks with the eu next year according to sources and customs regime is expected to be detailed by cabinet member michael gove later but if you think about it michael gove this is a complete u-turn of what gov said back in february when he announced that goods coming from the eu would face the full range of checks now what is that is that gov being bad not really because if you think about what's happened between february and now there's a small thing called a global pandemic and so the idea then that they can implement such rigid customs checks is not realistic in terms of the amount of preparation that's needed in order to deliver so yes they're going to have to move on that but that does then kind of water down a little bit of what the government was originally outlined which was kind of taking back control and all this sort of thing that's that's definitely not going to be what happens on day one in that respect so yeah that's the current current status with that on the european side the uk and eu high level talks are to take place on june 15th and next week between johnson and the eu commission president and also an eu council president other reports have noted that the uk in the eu reportedly agreed to hold intensified timetable for negotiations now they were previously meeting every three weeks the talk now is they're going to meet every week so there's definitely some political will to make movement on the negotiations i guess the question is whether or not they can and what does that look like and when does it come and it's probably not going to be for another week or two this time next week it should be a little bit more interesting because obviously we're getting close proximity then to some key deadlines and that would have encompassed quite a few of the key discussions in the beginning of next week on monday had some uk data out this morning so just a quick summary um the gdp month or month came in at minus 20.4 percent slightly worse than expected 18.4 industrial production minus 20.3 percent worse expected minus 15 manufacturing production minus 24.3 percent versus expected 15.8 so all these figures worse than expected however markets don't care and they don't care because it's april and it's and that's too far gone now markets are not going to get spooked by this type of situation and what markets are more concerned about right now is is the second wave virus as far as today is concerned but as far as the data is concerned now it's going to be okay we're in june now and it's about what does those may figures look like what does the more recent looking figures look like what did the forward-looking soft indicators look like to get to ascertain people's confidence levels because that's going to define the type of shape of a recovery we're gonna have in future so yeah the data's come out it's not important looking further forward then into the session you'd have some eu industrial production coming out at 10 o'clock you've then got u.s import export prices at 130 university of michigan the preliminary number at 3 p.m london time so 9 in chicago and that's it so any questions feel free to leave a comment remember to subscribe to the youtube channel if you're watching us on there and eddie will be dropping a video on saturday and then sam his technical outlet for the week on sunday but with that i wish

495_8yASgMc | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=495_8yASgMc | EARLY CHURCH HERESIES - PART 2 (CONCLUSION) | okay hello everybody this is brother Luke sin city preacher welcome to this episode of Bible talk with brother Luke tonight I'm continuing the study on early church heresies this is part two if he didn't see part one it's uploaded on my youtube channel sin city preacher so I hope you will go back and watch this from the beginning I have brother Ted here with me tonight his YouTube channel is God's truth ministries and I hope you will subscribe to him he is having some technical problems so hopefully it'll work out but if not he'll be there just listening I guess okay I'm going to pick up where I left off last time and the next heresy I want to discuss it is let me see okay so far I did discuss let me just mention them briefly here but Judaizers Marcion ism docetism Gnosticism adoptionism mantequilla ism origin ism monarchy ism sibelius and modalism which there's three names for the same thing now my the next one will be a pollen arianism so let me continue with that on discussing that one this is a began I guess a pollen Arius was the one that this was named after and he lived between 310 and 390 ad says this in radical doctrine was originated by pollen arias bishop of Laodicea in Asia Minor he held that Christ had a human body but only a sensitive soul and no rational human mind or human free will these having been played replaced in Christ by the divine logos or word of god this theory was condemned by the Romans I not in 377 and 381 by the ecumenical council of constantinople so this is kind of a strange one I think it's the idea is basically that see what the way we understand this Godhead and the deity and humanity Christ is that Jesus is fully God he is eternal he's not a creature and and yet he is fully man but apollon Arianism denies the the full humanity of Jesus they could not accept that he could be completely human because they they say that his mind had to still be the logos he didn't have a human mind now to me this is I don't know some of these things that are declared heresies I I think that some of them are very very serious and some of them are minor and they're almost a matter of nuances but this one to me is not something that I think everybody should be that shook up about but let me just read a little bit about more about see if there's something else I can find out about it here yeah it says belief that Jesus had a human body and lower soul the seat of his emotions but a divine mind Apollinaris further taught that the souls of man were propagated by other souls as well as their bodies I don't want to spend a lot of time on it it's not that complicated in yet and to me I don't doesn't strike me as really that serious if someone said to me today and we've never heard of a pollen areas that they think that you know Jesus is eternal God Almighty he's completely God and yet he's his humanity and he does have a human body but his mind is still the mind of God I'm just not gonna you know throw up the red flags and say whew what I can't stand all that I know I just don't know why that one is even though I was declared and it's a heresy it doesn't seem to me I know it's not real popular widespread heresy so I'm going to go on to the next next one on my list and this is the one that is probably number two number probably to one or two on my list as far as to the seriousness and this is Arianism and this really was popularized in the fourth century a major heresy that arose in the 4th century and denied the divinity of corrupt Jesus Christ first effectively advanced by arias who lived 256 to 336 ad a priest of Alexander who denied that there were three distinct divine persons in God arias there for arias there was only one person the Father according to Aryan theory the son was created that quote there was a time when he was not unquote that's the famous line from arias claiming that Jesus did have a beginning Christ was thus a son of God not by nature but only by grace and adoption and that is it's not exactly adopting this adoptionism as we discussed earlier but it accomplishes the same thing it denies the eternality of Jesus this theory logically evacuates the doctrine of the Incarnation of God in Christ of all meaning if God did not become a man then the world has not been redeemed and the faith itself eventually dissolves arianism was formally condemned in 325 by the council of nicaea which formulated and promulgated that or original version of the Nicene Creed but Arianism in semi arianism continued to prevail in original form in many areas for more than a century now the reason Arianism is such a serious problem is because if if arias was correct and Jesus had a beginning his his quote was there was a time when he was not that means Jesus is not eternal God who he calls the father God is eternal Jesus had a beginning and therefore he's a creature and if you understand you know much about the Bible the Bible tells us that God is eternal so therefore Jesus could not be God if he's not eternal if he had a beginning he's not God the Bible tells us that only God can be Savior and of course the Bible also says that Jesus is Savior so we know from the Bible that Jesus is Savior he is our Savior God and he is eternal and yet in Arianism this is all impossible because he believes that Jesus was a creature he had a beginning and if that is the case then he can't be Savior he does not have the power to be Savior if he's not eternal God Almighty so arianism and I discussed sabelli anism or or modalism in the last study these two are to far ends of the extreme in the middle we have the idea that Jesus is that there's one God but three persons the Father God the Son God the Holy Spirit God and yet they are distinct but and yet still one God that's tri-unity or the Trinity this is what is the norm and that most of the Christianity accepts now out of one extreme outside of that orthodoxy you have modalism that says there's one God and there's not three distinct persons there's just three modes of operation so sometimes God turns into the son sometimes he turns into the Holy Spirit sometimes he turns into the father it's just it's like putting on a mask and being three different people but that the with modalism their goal was to really protect the concept of monotheism because they saw if there's three distinct persons then you are end up being a polytheistic and we know that the Bible teaches that in monotheism there is only one God so Mobile is Amin was started as a way of defending monotheism and yet keeping Jesus and the father of the son all as God and so that's that was outside of this orthodoxy that God is triune three distinct persons you have one God now now arianism fell to the other extreme instead of like modalism claiming that Jesus is God he in fact is the father and the Son and the Holy Spirit in arianism he claims no he's not God at all he's a creature and and he did have a beginning that would make him no different than an angel or person a brother Evan hi can you hear me brother I don't have you blocked or anything here I didn't okay we'll talk if you feel like saying something hi have you listened at all do you know what I'm talking about yet just caught him going up I'm talking about Arianism and the belief that Jesus was a created thing versus incense yeah okay so I in the first study on church early church heresies I covered probably about 10 different heresies and now we move on to we're finally discussing Arianism and I was comparing Orthodoxy is is that there's one God three persons yet one God and fathers God the Son is God the Holy Spirit of God they're all fully God and yet there's one God and how do you explain it there's various ways of trying to explain it but most people say well this is the tri-unity of goddess a mystery but then Arianism came along and the problem with Arianism is it says that Jesus is actually a creature arias is famous for the line quote there was a time when he was not and that means that he's not eternal hmm that means that he's created and if he's created he's not eternal God and therefore he can't be Savior because only God can be the Savior so that's the problem with Arianism and let let me get your thoughts and all that yeah actually the christianity is actually dependent upon the fact that Jesus Christ is God manifest in the flesh because also I Jesus says I mean the Old Testament says God said in numbers I believe was in Deuteronomy I know for sure that he will not suffer punishment for the sin of another and in Revelation tells us that what Christ comes to give to each according to their works so so that's each person is judged upon themselves their own sin their own merits not not one person to the son of another so Jesus can't be a creative being because then God willeth this had broken his own word you know punishing one he for the sin of another and so the only way that Christianity can be true is if God himself took on flesh to pay the price for our sins himself he couldn't punish some other that would be unjust and God's not unjust obviously so Christianity requires to Jesus Christ because manifest in the flesh if it were not so Christianity is worthless yeah so if Jesus is not God he could not be Savior because the Bible says that only God is the Saviour and so that's why it is essential to understand that jesus is not a created being he is eternal God Almighty on the other hand it's also true that if Jesus too not have humanity and a physical body the way that the Gnostics did dosa Thyssen and man aquellas they believe that material world is evil their Hordern Jesus did not really have a physical body and therefore if you didn't have a body he couldn't have been crucified and he couldn't have been resurrected so both of these heresies destroy Christianity and destroy destroy our salvation without Jesus having a body and without Jesus being God we don't have a savior God amen all right brother Ted is here with us too but he can't get his audio and video to work but he's listening I hope we can all get together and talk afterwards though somehow because I want to discuss that other subject between the three of us we should do a broadcast sometime in the future about conditional ISM conditionally immortality okay I'm going to move on to the next the next heresy on my list here donut ISM it's a fourth and fifth century African heresy holding that the validity of the sacraments depends upon the moral character of the minister of the sacraments and that sinners cannot be true members of the church or even tolerated by the church if their sins are publicly known donatism began as a schism when rigourous claimed that a bishop of Carthage saya Cillian I think is his name was not a true Bishop because he had been ordained by a bishop who had been an apostate under Diocletian persecution the Donatists ordained their own bishops one of whom was donut as' for whom the her st is named donut ism was condemned in 311 to 314 but here's the thing about donut ISM that I think is has to be put into context here during the persecutions of diocletian's the believers were forced to make sacrifices to the Roman gods or be killed and many of the believers refused to do it and they went on and they they confessed their faith in Jesus instead of denying it and that was basically a sentence of death and they became martyrs these Confessor confessors martyrs were really highly esteemed people because so many of the people were not willing to confess Jesus when confronted with the threat of death and they would go ahead and make a sacrifice and to and they get a certificate I forgot what they called it but they would have a certificate proving so if the Romans asked for proof that they made a sacrifice they could show them kind of a receipt but the problem with this is that the people who were they were called lapsed the people who would not confess Jesus and at the at the cost of their life they were called lap sirs and the lab serves after donut ISM I mean after a Diocletian was gone and the church became accepted there was no more persecution the people who had lapsed wanted to come back into the church and then the question is what did we do with elapsed and the donut tests they believed that they would be really strict and they should not be allowed back in whereas and their other factions they thought no we need to let them in there was basically an argument about what kind of a church we have should the church be pure anybody who is a lapsed or or off in some way into sin they would be kicked out of the church or the other faction said no the church is not for the pure their churches for sinners it's more like a hospital for the sick and so that was a an argument in that time in the church history should we let the people who have lapsed in and treat him like a sick patient and try to bring them back in and accept them or should we shun them and and excommunicate them and forever so that was the principle of donut ISM and I don't know if you've heard much about it but what do you think of the concept how today should we apply that if it should the church be more it's let's keep it pure or anybody who's a sinner or I had a problem with your faith or some thinking they shouldn't be in the church or should we take the attitude that the church is like a hospital and all those people who are messed up one way or another we welcome them in and we try to help them well which you think is the better approach well personally I think I leave this cave said he came for the for the the sinners not the righteous in you know a healthy man needs no has no need of a physician so I think the church is for everyone and we're all sinners and we all we all need Savior and no matter how engrossed in sin somebody is I think a problem would arise if somebody was engrossed in some kind of sin or another and we're trying to get other members of the church to follow his ways I think that would be a problem but if somebody comes in because they have an addiction to cigarettes or alcohol or porn or anything else that's somebody who needs Jesus well just a church therefore if it's not to bring sinners Christ and get help from God to overcome sin and whatnot that's why I see you well there was something else in the little statement that I read about doing the Trista I think that we need to focus on also and that is that not only did they have to decide how to deal with elapsed people but also the idea of sacrament see even at this point church history the how you get saved was completely heretical at this point they believed in baptismal regeneration to get saved and then they believe that when you sin you needed to confess and then you need to get the sacraments to get the holy spirit back in and so this the idea of the sacraments of Baptism and and the Eucharist it they elevated these things to such an extent that your salvation hinged upon these sacraments so that's what they would do is they would deny the sacraments you know the word excommunicate a lot of people think that it just means that you or you don't communicate with someone there you're not in communion with them but it really meant at that time it meant no communion for you no Eucharist for you and that meant that they couldn't get the Holy Spirit back in and they're lost if they're denied the Eucharist so this is the problem and it's all based upon believing elevating these sacraments to such a level that rather than being something done in remembrance of Jesus these are something that are done in order to get saved and stay saved sounds kind of like a Boy Scout badge program to me let me ask if brother Ted is like able to speak at this point okay can you hear me now oh you sound really good go ahead and talk about anything we've said so far and how do you sound good go ahead okay well the the whole sacrament deal is is obviously a either misunderstanding or perversion deliberately of John chapter six where Jesus said unless you eat my flesh and drink my blood you know you have no life in you but just a few verses down you guys know that he says the words I speak to you our spirit in their life so obviously it's a very figurative statement because obviously Jesus wasn't commending cannibalism and he obviously wasn't advocating works for salvation so which brings up another point since it's the three of us here is not only is it highly highly figurative in and of what he was saying you have to receive me you have to really take me in but he also said in that same path passage that the Catholics quote unless you eat my flesh and drink my blood you have no life in you to me that's a that's a proof text for conditional immortality you don't have the lasting life I had never thought of it like that but I do see how you could could make make that a supporting verse people people have natural life but they don't have the eternal immortal spiritual life that Christ offers that's true yeah now the three of us are in agreement that a person is not born immortal we're born as mortals we're going to do a study on this separately sometime and get very very thorough on this but the bible does teach that mankind is not immortal we must get become immortal through our faith in jesus that the only people who are immortal who mean will have eternal life are those people who put their faith in jesus so i can see how you could use that verse in that way i never i had ever connected like that brother 'even if you thought of that before no really well i mean i eternal life verses my life the flesh I mean those passages in the Bible that say you know the flesh is there's no good thing and you know the flesh is gonna die and it's the spirit that lives and then to God and you get a then Paul wrote of course that we receive a new heavenly body but exactly the way he put it no I hadn't really thought thought of it exactly that way so that was that was an interesting observation well it just so happens that that portion the end of chapter 6 in John is what I studied I think it was either yesterday or the day before and in the study on John so that's very fresh in my mind and that's the way you explain - this is a perfectly correct as the problem they had in all of jhana eat up to that point first with Nicodemus he thought that Jesus should be taken literally how can I get back into my mother's womb and he said what's wrong with you you're supposed to be a teacher in Israel you don't understand spiritual talk you know and then the same thing with the woman at the well she didn't understand the idea of living water and then these people here that all left Jesus because they thought that he was telling them to be cannibals literally eat his flesh and drink his blood and he said this is spiritual talk here so and this is the problem with the early church people think that this is limited to Roman Catholicism but these errors of the sacraments they came before Roman Catholicism became into official existence we find this in the in the 2nd 3rd centuries the idea of baptism regeneration through baptism and and the need for the sacramental the communion as that that's an error that happened very early in church history I'm going to go to the next subject but see if you have any final remarks on that before him goes on okay the next one is pelagianism and this is a 5th century heresy is named after Pelagius he lived from 354 to 360 or it also says o or from 420 to 440 so there must be some kind of a disagreement about the exact period he lived Pelagius was a welch monk he taught that humanity does not inherit original sin and that salvation is earned by following the example of Christ grace is not necessary instead humans overcome the sin they gradually developed by using God's grace to assist them in perfecting themselves and thus earning salvation there's more I want to read about this but first just let me get your reaction to that initial remark there I have to apologize I stepped away from my computer second I didn't really hear that I'm sorry brother brother Ted we were able to comment on that and then maybe never can go after you well I guess I basically know just from what I've heard just from you and maybe one or two comments in the last year so about what pelagianism is I do have probably a minority view on on the topic of sin nature I that people are born this may sound like splitting hairs but at least at this point in my studies and I could be wrong and I'm welcome to be corrected but at this point of my studies I I'm believing that people are born with that with a what you'd call a fallen nature or an incomplete nature but not necessarily a a sin nature and I can elaborate a little if you want me to well I think Neff probably understands what we're talking about now the the heresy of pelagianism and there's there's two things that basically were were mentioned so far Lou I want to get your opinion on one is that that man was not inherit original sin and two that man can man did not get salvation through grace at all he earns it through growing and maturing and becoming a good person now obviously you know that's false but would you let me get your quick thoughts on that I I kind of agree with Tedford on originally on Saints the Bible teaches that one person was not guilty for the sin of another as God says in in numbers and Deuteronomy then I don't see how I can be held responsible for Adam's sin but a sinful nature that's that's where it gets a little muddy I don't think anybody is adequately explained what it means this idea of that we are inherited from Adam some sinful nature I really be honest with you I don't understand that concept very well I really it's smooth well let me first just for anybody watching the video I want to declare that the the three of us and and more importantly the Bible itself is very very explicit that salvation comes by the grace of God through faith alone in Christ alone it's a it's a free gift that's offered to everyone it's not through personal merit it's not by overcoming our sin and become an earning salvation as Pelagius taught so that's the first thing that's easy to dispute because our everything we teach our whole ministries and everything we teach from the Bible is upon that doctrine of Sola fede faith alone grace alone so but let that gets us to the other question of the original sin now I guess it just depends on how you define it and express it but I'll give you my quick thoughts of it and I like your feedback before we we move on but I don't I look at it is when when Adam and Eve fell they died that day but we know they lived eight nine hundred years after that and yet it says they died that day and we know that the Bible says that it was a spiritual death so the way I look at this is when God brought them to life and breathed into them they they had the Holy Spirit in them and then when they they fell the Holy Spirit was drew and now they're left with a stub it's like if you if you God didn't kill them like some people think that well they seem so God sentenced him to death and killed him but no God didn't do that God just told them the facts he says the way that I created everything is you need to be connected to to God through the through the Tree of Life and if you if you get disconnected from that you're gonna die now they didn't die that day but spiritually this spirit was severed and now they're left with a stub it's like pulling a leaf off of a tree or if you know the Leafs alive but once it's pulled off it's only a matter of time before it withers and dies because it's not connected to the tree even longer like a person like a piece of perforated easily lips and leaves behind yeah so this is this is what happened to Adam and Eve now how does that affect us I think it's it's a it it's a genetic condition that they got at that moment it's like they were exposed to radiation and now the genetic messages has changed and mutated and now that you have a gene that they pass on to us that it's a birth it's a genetic defense and it and it and it is a sin nature and it comes natural everybody's going to sin if they live long enough and so I don't look at it as we have the sin of Adam and Eve it's just that we've inherited this condition this condition and we cannot live a perfect life because we have a nature that will will naturally sin it's sin nature means we said naturally let me get your reaction to that well I agree I think do you explained it beautifully well in fact that sounds like the best explanation of it I have yet heard III think there is further support from that in creation itself and I think creation is I'm not gonna try to turn this conversation into on my creation but I think it's important for Christians to learn and understand that God's Word is true and he says he created the world's he created the earth he created life because I see evidence that supports what you're saying in the creation itself you know scientists creation and scientists at the very at least acknowledge that the according to what we observe about the matter and energy and whatnot the universe is dying it's dying a heat death it's going to the energy is becoming evenly disbursed everywhere all organic life is in decay genetic mutation is destroying every living thing on this planet the rate of which mutations are occurring in our DNA means we cannot if they've been around for tens of thousands of years we're going extinct because of mutation and we have an aging process that I think came into play when when you say God withdrew his holy spirit from the world he also our bodies began to function imperfectly and now we have an aging process and so we're gonna physically die as well so I see that as true when you say God withdrew his Holy Spirit for man I see it not only is that but even in a broader picture of God but there is Holy Spirit from all of creation because the scriptures say that all of creation groans because of sin right so the I think the entire universe all matter all energy all organic life is is has is now experiencing entropy which it was not experiencing until God did this and that means the whole of all of creation is falling into decay and that would include man yeah well our on that subject you're right in that we go off too far into creationism tonight it's not the the theme of the show but I do want Ted if you're not aware of this and anybody watching the video want you to be aware that brother Evan his channel is titled Nephilim free and I believe that you know he probably is gets embarrassed the way I'm flattering him I keep bringing this up but I don't know anybody Kent Hovind Ken Ham none of these people can compare to brother Evan in terms of defending the creation account in the Bible against Darwinism and create and defending theism against atheism he also does a very good job at arguing against Calvinism and other things so so he's very very knowledgeable so I hope you will subscribe to his channel particularly for that subject matter but let me ask brother Ted to comment on what we've said so far well I would agree with what he said there I do think that Adam and Eve did have the Holy Spirit living in them the way God created he breathed into them the breath of life and I don't think that initial creation was only just them living but somehow the Holy Spirit in them I can't see God creating them only 2/3 complete you know body and mind or body and you know soul or what you know the the immaterial thinking contemplating part of man I also think that God even though it may be not directly says in the text there that they had the Holy Spirit in them but I would think that they did because mmm you know the analogy has been made before that you know what caused the Spirit of God to depart from Adam and Eve well sin well mmm what caused Jesus spirit the spirit that was in him to depart from him that only happened one time on the cross where he said father into thy hands I commit my spirit you know so Christ became sin sin was the only thing that caused the spirit to depart from Adam and Eve sin was the only thing that caused you know the spirit to quote depart from Christ and and now since the cross is finished and you know going back to eternal security which he brought up a few minutes ago sin can't make the spirit depart from us because we've been forgiven it's been complete and Christ resides with us eternally as far as the sin nature that you and heaven both touched on I believe it's it's kind of a thing of semantics about what I'm about to say but maybe not and like I said before I don't think a baby is born with a sin nature but I think he's born without the Holy Spirit so to speak and so therefore the baby's born incomplete and I think more than being prone to sin I think a child a human is born prone to independence because they don't have the Spirit of God and so therefore being prone to prone to independence what follows an independent spirit you know this a desire to be independent and get our own needs met and that leads to sin so I may be splitting hairs there but I think it's kind of important I don't believe we inherited the sin of Adam like the Calvinists believe I don't believe that all of humanity inherited his Pennell his sin the only penalty we inherited is death death passed upon all men we're all gonna die so that's all I have to say on that I think I was beautifully sad Tedford that was right on the money I couldn't agree with you more in fact I uh I thought alignment was yours on that matter 100% I think you're spot on you know I agree too but that leads me to a question the we are kind of a unique threesome here in that in that we are all in agreement that eternal torment is Error and we believe that and people are not in innately immortal they must receive immortality when by putting their faith in Jesus and so that's why I probably have a different perspective and what I'm going to say say next and I think that it fits it will fit along with everything you've said the question is does a person go to hell because of what they do or do they go to hell because of what they are and I I believe it's because of what we are not what we do because what we do is is already resolved Jesus died for the sins of the whole world so we don't go to hell because of sin since do you just pay for this there's a propitiation for our sins and not for ours only but also for the sins of the whole world so heaven in hell is not decided by who sins or doesn't sin and this is decided by who believes and who's regenerated because of their belief or not so the problem with the child the person that's born they are born with this sentence of death as you said this mortality and unless they unless they change that who they are from Mortal to immortal by putting in a faith in Jesus then there are they are doomed to die not only the first death that we know we we all die after 60 70 80 years we were going to die but we know that that the judgment that those who did not receive life everlasting they they are immortal and they will die and that took to us we agree that the lake of fire is not there not there because of their punishing for their sins since Jesus died for sins they're there because they are mortal and they died I look at the lake of fire as just a cremation and I don't I don't know if it's a lake of fire that they go in there or if it's judgments on the earth and then when God destroys the heavens and the earth with fervent fire if they're just burned up at that time but regardless these people will be consumed with this lake in this lake of fire because they are have not received life everlasting by believing in Jesus so I don't I might have gone a little more than that one on that but so the question is do you agree that people are lost not because of what they do but because of what they are I in comparison to the wicked well in considering what the gospel says about salvation I would agree yes because all of our sins are hidden in Christ the saved the sins of the saved are hidden in Christ so it's not about what you do it's about who you get mr. nahdi Christ yeah well one point about the lake of fire I don't know that I'm right about this I've been thinking lately that the lake of fire might be you know the Bible an Old and New Testament says that God our God is a consuming fire both Hebrews and but I forgot what your Old Testament I I think it's the holiness of God himself that such the universe on fire in destroys it and of course we know the passages that say the entire universe will be consumed all of it and so 2nd Peter I think tells us that and I think this idea of lake of fire could be the idea the understanding that all of creation it's not like God's just gonna burn the earth like all of the entire you verse will be set on fire matter and energy will dissipate disappear breakdown in some kind of a way that will be could be considered fire and and it will be it will literally can speak of soon and so I don't think that when when God destroys the earth he's just gonna you know the earth and then the rest of the universe remains the Bible says all the universe will will burn away and fervent Heat the very elements it's comprised of so I think lake of fire may be some considering a lake as a surface it might be considering it might be God's Way of saying the three dimensional realm that I created it the whole thing everything in it will burn but that's just a sorry thought alright brother Ted what's your thoughts on all this well I do believe that I believe it says in 2nd Peter where it says that all the elements are going to melt with fervent heat excess heat and I believe it's going to be right down to the very molecular structures all the elements you know I believe even the elements in that in the tiniest particles that's why there's going to be no place left for the Lost to be in my opinion they're going to be they're going to be destroyed I'm looking at Revelation 21:8 right now it says but the Cowardly unbelieving abominable murderers sexually immoral sorcerers idolaters and all Liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone which is the second death you know the traditionalist would have us believe that that like a fire in hell are the same thing they're not obviously because if he verses up there it's clearly death and he'll were cast into the lake of fire it's something that's consuming whether it's Gehenna south west of Jerusalem or whatever you know the lost are going to be completely consumed and burned up and if he can uncreate the universe which he's going to which he's going to burn up all the elements he certainly isn't going to leave anything left of the Lost from what I can see in Scripture Amy never thought I would point out also that that passage where it says you know the liars unbelievers the whoremongers the the thieves they will all be consumed this is not the this is obviously the unsaved because as we all know what we're all guilty of some of those things ourselves yeah okay well we could easily just continue talking about that subject probably for several hours and I hope we will do that at some point in the future here but I've looked to hit up my notes and there's a couple of more heresies but that I was going to discuss but to me they are so minor in comparison that I don't think there's any really even need to go into those so I'm gonna just kind of recap some of the most serious ones to get your reaction to that and then we can be be finished okay the the first one that I talked about I will say is the worst of all and it's and it's similar to Pelagianism but it predates pelagianism and that's Judaizers we find the Judaizers in the book of accent and the and the book of Galatians these are the people that were introducing this and this by the way this is not the second and third and fourth century as we discussed some of these other things this is in the first century right in the in the beginnings of the church and the problem the Judaizers were they were the Jews that believed in Jesus before Gentiles even heard about it and they they basically made two big mistakes the the James the the the leader of the church in Jerusalem and the first believers who were all Jewish they didn't understand that one that Jesus didn't come for just Israel and the Jews he came to save the whole world so Gentiles aren't going to be included that's what Paul revealed is the mystery and then they also didn't realize that Judaism had to be discarded they thought that okay they're gonna believe in Jesus and they're going to continue practicing Judaism but they one-by-one first of all though the dietary laws were ruled out and when Paul I mean when Peter went to Cornelius God gave him a vision saying these things are not unclean so that removed the dietary laws and then the circumcision was was addressed since they said well the Gentiles don't have to be circumcised they tried to impose all these things on and then the Judaizers would come into Galatia and they were trying to tell the believers there you got to practice all the laws of Moses although Judaism and and Paul argued against that and said and then in the book of Hebrews I believe Paul wrote it also and he takes it a step further it says not only do you have to stop practicing all the laws but you got to stop practicing the sacrifices Jesus made that his sacrifice was one final sacrifice if you do any more sacrifices you're like putting Christ on the cross again so these Judaizers are the ones that trampled on the cross and and and said that that's not enough you're gonna also have to be religious and so that was the first most serious heresy and that's a heresy that's persisted through all the centuries and I deal with it every day here on YouTube so let me get your first reaction to the Judaizers and basically they're the lordship salvations today go ahead temperature well I can certainly attest to that seen firsthand what lordship salvation could do I was kind of sucked into it for a while in my early years of being saved my wife and I wit moved out to California we became members of John MacArthur's church who's probably the biggest well well-known proponent of what's called lordship salvation and it and it's interesting brother look I think you and I have talked about this before that lordship salvation is almost always tied in with Calvinism because it's tied in with the the P of the acronym perseverance of the saints which means that the true saints of God that God has chosen against their will will continue to persevere in faith and works you know regardless of whatever so it's it is a big problem and it is pervasive today in the body of Christ yeah Judaism also it isn't it pretty much following the raw works based kind of thing you know keeping keeping the law and all that of course we know that keeping the law of God won't saving it it's by grace alone year because of our faith in Christ so it is as I understand Judaism it's it's all about self righteousness and keeping the law and and you know that this is one of the reasons that Jesus called the Pharisees vipers and because they they puff themselves up and then the truth is they should have been on their knees pleading for salvation themselves instead of making themselves look like some kind of royal law keepers so yeah so we saw the beginnings of it and the very beginnings of the church in this this heresy of faith in Jesus is insufficient you must be religious to whether it's practicing mosaic laws and whether it's being the lordship salvation just or a legalist or following the commandment that we see up here all these things today this heresy is persisted and it has really taken over the church almost all people in the so-called church throughout all of history and today they do not believe as we do and as the Bible teaches that what self and position comes by grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone so that's the first most serious heresy and it persists today and the next I'm only picking out the ones that are most serious I'm not going to recap each one of these we've got Martian ISM docetism Gnosticism these are all kind of related in that in that they think that the the physical universe is evil and therefore Jesus could not be a physical they deny his physical existence and that means that they they did deny his death on the cross and his bodily resurrection so you can't be saved if Jesus didn't literally really died for our sins and be raised from the dead so those are all different forms of the same problem and so let me get your response to that and thinking no go ahead well I didn't hear it all but it sounds like what that belief system I forget what look just termed it but it sounds like it's saying the cross is not sufficient for forgiveness and that isn't that where ritualism ties all in ceremonialism brother Luke well let me let me clarify it it's not that the cross is not sufficient it's just that it never happened it was Jesus's physical existence was an illusion he didn't really have a body therefore he couldn't have really died on the cross he couldn't wasn't really bodily resurrected and so how does that affect our theology and salvation brother Wow well the verse that comes to my mind is when Jesus you know his post resurrection appearances he said touch me and handled me for spirit hath not flesh and bones as I have even and when he said to Thomas put your fingers here thrust your hand into my side stop your doubting and believe so obviously he was truly physical this is another reason this kind of ties back into the whole sin nature thing all the Gnostics from what I've understood from the historians then the Gnostics problem was they believed that all matter was evil so therefore you know God couldn't come in the flesh you know spirit had to be separate from flesh Jesus could never you know really be manifest in the flesh and that's the Gnostics of the day believe that all matter was evil well the the religious religionists of our day believed in a sense all matters evil because he kind of goes back to what I'm saying that's that's why they believe everybody's born with the sin nature instead of I make the distinction that were born kind of fallen the fall of nature rather than a sin nature doesn't mean our matter doesn't mean our matter is evil it just means we're fallen so I I think we've got some Gnostics around us today I could be wrong but seems like it to me yeah that the idea that you know just Calvinism does seem to be tied into a number of false teachings doesn't it brother Luke we often find just like a maze sort of you know you find one heresy you trace it back to a true oh it's connected to Calvinism all of this oh that's connected to confidence um - Oh what about oh yeah there were two it's it's kind of strange that you know a core belief that's wrong will lead to a various wrong ideas I guess okay then uh the next problem that I think is rise to a level that is quote serious is adoptionism and that is that they they believe that Jesus he was not God he was just an ordinary man who was able to be so good and lived such a perfect life that that I he was able to receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit and gave him a kind of a minor God status he was adopted as a son of God you know that we are adopted as a son of God because that that's what the Bible says I a Christian it becomes a Christian through adoption but they say that Jesus was adopted he he was not eternal God Almighty so that's another one that denies the deity and the eternality of Jesus and so let me get your response to that real quick why the Bible is absolutely clear that Jesus Christ is God I mean Testament New Testament Saul throughout the entire Bible is all about Jesus Christ when God told Moses - was it Moses or Abraham to tell the tribes of Israel according to their numbers to arrange themselves in a specific and encampment you know this tribe worth this to the east make your chance to the south it formed the cross of Jesus Christ I mean what foot but you know how much more evidence do you need that the entire Bible is all about Christ so the dear anything that denies the deity of Christ is is utter heresy it's just complete nonsense it's terrible terrible sir I don't remember brother Ted comment on that or not but on adoptionism well I did that that would be a it would be another Christ and it would be it would be an accursed message from what I can from what I can tell I mean Galatians 1 8 and 9 where Paul says if any man preach any other gospel let him be to me that's that's not good news that's an accursed message was in its second Corinthians 13 brother where he says you know someone comes to you preaching another Jesus and and you were you know you're receiving another spirit it's it's truly not the true Christ so it's got to be and a Jesus of adoption is not an eternal Jesus so yeah and this is a very common viewpoint of much of the liberal religions like the New Age thought to that Jesus's was a man who was attained a high spirituality the next one is now sabelli anism more commonly called modalism this is something that was a serious dispute in the first few centuries of the church when when they were all trying to argue over and define the Godhead and cibele modalism to me is not a damnable heresy it I can accept a modal list as a brother you know if you you'll have to decide that for yourself if it's through that liberal about it or not but modalism does agree with to me the most important thing that we need to understand about Jesus that and that is that he is eternal he is eternal God Almighty the difference is that I see the Father Son and Holy Spirit being three distinct persons and yet one God in a traditional Trinitarian try unity unity description of the Godhead but the mode list says you know there's Jesus is eternal God Almighty it's just that sometimes he wears the mask of a father sometimes he wears the mask of the Holy Spirit he's just changing costumes or modes of operation but they give him credit for being eternal God Almighty and to me maybe I'm just too lenient on this but I can accept that and I could live with that what's your reaction to that one well I mean a remote list I am don't consider myself a modal list because I don't look at it like god changing costumes or masks I look at it I that all three are God and I think the true nature of God is absolute is actually impossible for man to understand that's why there is even controversy about it people take up camps about it it's because we just struggled to try to understand that and for me I I'm just satisfied believing that all three are God that's that's really the only thing I I that's fine my position on it you know whether I'm right or a little bit less right that's a little more right about somebody else about the nature of God I really don't care because I believe what I'm what I need to believe to know the truth about God and that is that he is Father Son and Holy Spirit and all three of those are fully God and that the entirety other God had existed in Jesus Christ so that's really is the core thing and I really don't think that it's really highly productive for people to debate the nature of God let's just accept that he is Father Son Holy Spirit the rest of that as it goes deeper into the nature of God it's going to go into a murky darkness that man will never be able to see through no matter what kind of flashlight it brings with it yeah I agree with what Evan says there that I mean who even can can really describe the full nature God he's he's beyond our understanding I just think it's essential that people believe in the deity of Christ and and even that's hard for some people to understand you know even you know believing that he's the Christ the Messiah the son of God you know he's shown from the Old Testament that comparing with John eight you know where he's claiming to be the great I am I think true believers I think people are gonna see that but you know deity and try unity is is hard for some people understand and I believe that there's some motorists that definitely are Christians I you know I I'm not going to say that they're not saved I just think that's it's wrong for some Trinitarians to say that that you know there's no way they're saved you know I and listen you know no I just I think that's going too far yeah I'm happy to hear that I know some people the that are really a poor modalism a mode lists but it was several centuries and after the Apostles had left us the New Testament several centuries of in the church afterwards that they they were debating and writing and having councils trying to define what we were trying to explain here in a few minutes volumes were written and there were a lot of arguments they were councils and creeds of the Nicene Creed the the revised Nicene Creed in Constantinople the Caledonian Creed Athanasian Creed over several centuries all these councils and creeds they gradually wrote more and more and declared more and more esthetic stating how to describe what we're trying to describe and so it's in other words that just verifies to the point that took centuries of debate and writing to look to be trying to put it in the best into words the best they could and still we're kind of struggling with how to understand and explain it but I do think that it is essential to understand that Jesus is eternal God he's not a creature it's essential to understand that he did have a body he was a man with a body of flesh and blood because otherwise he couldn't have died for us as a race like that let's say hi brother Neil yes well we're summing up the study here but I'm glad you could join us at least here for the the final remarks here now so that was a modalism then we talked about arianism and the problem with with arianism is it did denies exactly what we said that Jesus is eternal God Almighty arianism says Jesus is a creature and then we discussed Pelagianism and it just says that that we're not saved by grace at all we're saved through personal merit and everybody could have the ability to be good enough if they try hard enough so those are the big serious heresies there are others some of them I have in my list I'm not going to go through because I don't think they rise to that level of significance but so I Konya went back and summarize some of the ones I did in the first study since you guys weren't here with me but let me get kind of your conclusions on the the whole subject of these early church heresies so far 10:13 you wanna go freshen sure well I think I think what happens is when these guys go to something other than Scripture and they go to what we now bhima's heresies you look back at the roots of them they weren't they weren't having the Bible as their final authorities and I realize maybe a lot of them didn't have the Bible didn't have the canon complete as we have it nowadays and so maybe they did maybe Luke can tell us what were the dates of some of these heresies when they came along who started them maybe they didn't have the Bible regionally maybe only people in liturgical positions had them maybe none of the laymen had these and maybe that's why some of these things were embraced or widely accepted but you know I go back to John 17 where Christ's father sanctify them through thy truth thy Word is truth got to be the final authority and there you go at the philosophers yeah philosophy and uh and pagan religions sure thank you yeah I agree I I just asked you noticed I pasted two passages in the Bible which used the word philosophy the only two that do I think in the King James anyway and and and the Greeks for asking well what kind of numbskull is this Jesus what kind of garbage is he preaching you know these people they don't understand this because they're stuck in their vain philosophy then we have Colossians said beware lest any man well it wasn't Jesus speaking in the first one it was one of the Apostles probably Paul like that yes because he was preaching Jesus but then there's beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit after the tradition of men after the rudiments of the world and not after Christ so you know what you're you're absolutely right but people dig into their philosophy they get up in their head they think you know look I am able to reason away listen to me I can teach you something and and they use their they get prideful about their knowledge about their what they consider to be wisdom and and so they rely on that like you said instead of scripture and that's their big error well I think that the one of the important things that we should learn from this particular step study is that some of these worst heresies like Judaism and and I'm Judaizers Lordships salvation is their version of it today and Pelagianism that you can work your way to heaven these things they go back not just even to the 2nd 3rd 4th centuries they go back to the 1st century even at the time the the epistles were written I'll read this one verse here second Peter 2 1 & 2 there were false prophets also among the people even as there shall be false teachers among you who privily shall bring in damnable heresies even denying the Lord that bought them and bring up upon themselves Swift destruction and many shall follow their pernicious ways by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of so some of these heresies that we see today are so ancient they go back even at the time of the Apostles and then some of them sprung up in the 2nd and 3rd and 4th centuries but in my statement of faith the kind of the Creed that I wrote based upon what I think is really essential really emphasizes two things that Jesus is eternal God Almighty that that argues that he's not simply a creature and that in that and that salvation is not by works at all it's it completely a free gift offered to everyone and you receive it through faith alone in Christ alone to me these are the two most important things for a person to comprehend and embrace this deity of Christ because he can't be Savior if he's not God and and the idea that salvation is free gift so brother Neil you haven't I don't know how much you've heard of this tonight well give you a chance to say anything it's bait based on what you've heard oh yeah I was listening to you earlier today also man did you uh did you come at some of them guys that were saying some of the stuff you know the I can't excite I can't remember exactly what you said but you said something about these guys that put themselves up on pedestals as if they know more than everybody else like it's a secret is the word that you use you said there's some kind of secret that they have and they know that you don't know and that's I think that's the biggest problem with a lot of these people well yeah other than that that's all I had to say yeah and that was a good hangout we had earlier today with talking to the people about their there for some reason many people feel it's they have a great need to evaluate other Christians and judge whether they are truly saved or not and they're judging them based upon their how much their life has changed and so that was the subject that that video but that that discussion but let me see did I ask when we see brother Ted you gave your final remarks brother Kevin did you I think I did yeah yeah I I Ted gave it and talked about how people make my hair of not putting Scripture is the highest authority nye concurred with him and mentioned the Philosopher's and there and so yeah I guess I did yeah all right well at the end of every every one of these broadcasts I I don't want to fail in doing what's really most important and that is telling the viewer the good news the gospel gospel is a greek word it means good news and it's really shouldn't be good news it should be great news it really should be the greatest news ever told and it is simply that that salvation and eternal life in heaven is offered to all of us to everyone as a free gift from Jesus Christ now if that shocks you if you haven't heard that before and you think that's really Wow that's that's bizarre right I've never heard that I'm not surprised because almost all the people in the world today even in churches all across the world today and and even throughout all of history they've been teaching a lie from the devil that that in order to go to heaven it is determined by how good a person is if you're good enough you get to go to heaven if you're not good enough particularly if you're a bad person then you're going to go to hell it's all based on personal merit that's what the world has been taught and it's an evil damnable lie and that the truth is to go to heaven it's impossible to get there on your personal merit because you'd have to be able to go before God and say I've never done one thing wrong my whole life I'm perfect because that's the standard you have to meet according to the Bible and we all fall short no one can can legitimate claim they've been perfect their whole life so that's that's evident there that we need we need to be helped we need to be saved and and God intervened on our behalf and said man is in a hopeless situation he could never reach the level to qualify for heaven on his own so God intervened it's kind of like he did an intervention on our behalf and it says that God became flesh he came down from heaven and manifested in the flesh as the Son of God Jesus Christ in order so that he could die on a cross and pay for our sins and he in fact did he paid for all of our sins so now we can go before God and we're sinless because Jesus paid for our sins and and then when we put our faith in Jesus too as our Savior he regenerates us he gives us life everlasting and as a free gift and so that we know that we're not only were saved from condemnation but we get to live forever in joy and bliss in heaven so he died for our sin he was buried but the the the most remarkable thing is Jesus raised himself back to life bodily and and that that's proven because he walked among 500 witnesses for over four for forty days and they they saw him they talked to him they touched him they ate with him and that bodily resurrection was Jesus's way of giving us a sign of proof that he is God that he is Savior that he does have power over life and death and it's the resurrection that gives me confidence that my faith in Jesus is justified and Jesus actually promises us all your going to go to heaven if you trust me so since God can't break a promise I'm guarantee I'm going to go to heaven not because of anything I've done but because of what Jesus did for me I'll pull I hope you'll put your faith in Jesus now and receive the gift of eternal life in heaven I'll give everybody a moment to say any final words and then we'll close no good hanging out and I uh I think it's informative to share this dis at these things with other people so they can learn about these heresies and and maybe compare something that they've been if fallen into believing and they can say oh look this is where I came from and this is how it's wrong so I think I commend you for doing it I think it's a great idea for people to learn about these things yeah thanks brother Luke for bringing these things that it always seems like history repeats itself doesn't it we have to have to watch these same errors you know cropping up now and again throughout history and so it's good for us to be aware but thank you for leading that study good job excellent hangout as usual I am here sometimes daily yeah it's always it's always good though I love the stuff about like me and Neff we're talking about the side chat it's not a secret it's it's out the bag Evan said it is it's not supposed to be everybody should know this you know and it doesn't take us to tell them that they should just know all right I appreciate you joining me in this discussion and I look forward to more of them I will give the audience of viewers a teaser brother Ted and brother Evan and I are going to do a hangout at some point in the future and the subject will be we are arguing against eternal torment in hell arguing for conditional immortality and annihilationism we all agree on that and so we're going to tell you why we are persuaded there is no eternal torment in hell so I don't know when we're gonna do it but I'm looking forward to it and thank you everybody for participating bless you all in the name of our great Savior God Jesus Christ | Brother Luke | UC9A8FXf8VrN_DbnVhkU04GA | 2020-03-27 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 11,711 |

pnaqfBTScg4 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pnaqfBTScg4 | Harsh Criticism 2: Sleazy Supermarket | today's harsh criticism request was sent in by Kevin Hansen he's one of our subscribers on the channel and he's been asking about me doing his draft for quite some time so let's get started SCP X X X sleazy supermarket object class Euclid special containment procedures any area that has the capo my god when you have a typo in the very the first three words I mean because we're not going to consider the object class or the special because that's a copy-paste job the first three words you wrote there's a typo any area that has the capability of spawning an SCP instance is be monitored covertly by hidden cameras disguised as objects in the area such as street lamps and fire hydrants okay I'm gonna stop you right there you're using already far more words than are necessary disguised as objects in the area is enough you don't need to give me examples due to high public visibility when active instances are to be put out of business via legal means quotation mark if possible and located legal in the situation applies any method that is used by the law no lawful reason to shut down to the shutdown the instance is needed I think you mean to shut down the instances needed goddammit [ __ ] just basic read through would have caught that that you sent me a draft with very basic typos in it what the [ __ ] is wrong with you I mean it's alright if you make one here or there but you're making them over and over and over again and they're very easy to spot because I'm not very good at spotting typos but they're [ __ ] so obvious also here's a tip any time you feel the need to include quotes around a thing in an SCP just don't [ __ ] do it but if you're committed to this particular brand of stupidity and just [ __ ] don't immediately include a parenthetical that explains exactly what you mean but what you put in quotes just say the thing in the first place this is to be carried out by MTF November 28th tricky tycoon's common methods of foreclosing SCP xxx instances included false foreclosure notes fake health inspections or purchase no there's no or in there I'm just naturally as reading putting an or where there should be one purchase of the land etc okay first of all fake health inspections and purchase of the land are not really foreclosures that's not how that works foreclosure is you know foreclosure and also this is what you mean earlier when you said legal foreclosure II meant foreclosures purchases and condemning the building so just say that you spent three sentences [ __ ] around if none of these options are available the instance is to be shut down by force and all instances of scp-693 you're terminated at commander and Mikhail's digression who the [ __ ] is commander McHale and how did the containment procedures shake out if he's dead or incapacitated I mean also seriously did you read this before you send it to me could you write digression but I think you mean discretion any successful raid of an SCP X X X X instance should have it entire stock be removed by d-class personnel and be law if you don't after I read that out loud understand exactly what your problems were and there are multiple problems with the sentence structure there I don't know what I can do for you so I'm just gonna move on no personnel are to interact with an unlocked SCP X X X X - one instance or any instance marked as dangerous any civilians fire do - replacement vents are to be agnus deciced know it wasn't easy as before but after foundation intervention I now accept that there may be a god pretty sure you meant and nice to size but you know yeah let's see the foundation is now going to start agnosticism people that's a thing and given a new job once this is reverted to a normal supermarket the two thousand dollars provided to citizen not citizens or not to the citizen but to citizen may be confiscated or not at head researcher Phillips de Cresci I'm just gonna pretend you said discretion there even though you said digression again and also have you think about it the idea that head researcher Phillips is just using the money to fund a lavish lifestyle until he dies of course and then no one knows what to do with the money the containments procedures are too specific goddamn well let's move on to the end of the description in description oh my god that is a long paragraph oh boy SCP XS effects is an anomalous chain of supermarkets stores boy you better tell me you in the next sentence what the anomaly is Ezzor that were generated by copying an existing supermarket and replacing it entirely referred to as a replacement event oh yeah that's not exactly how I would structure things but we'll go with it anyway this can only occur to currently operating supermarkets this can only occur to what the [ __ ] with all employees being sent a letter containing a document informing them of their termination and $2,000 or equivalent what what is the point of that detail anyway if they feel like a needless distraction from your overarching narrative and also just sending $2,000 people is kind of stupid like I don't see the point of that that it's just an extra complication you don't need replacement events occur every month at the minimum with the longest recorded time in between replacement events being exactly one year well sir are the statics department has figured out that the replacement events carry at least once a month Oh excellent uh also while we were collecting data we noticed that there was one year where no replacements events happened uh you just said it happened once a month sir a full disclosure we're not actually very good at math oh boy these stores commonly sell anomalous foodstuffs and goods referred to as SCP xxx - one most instances of and are dangerous to humans or digestion or simply touch simply touch as opposed to complex touch so denim - - for short list of all acquiring bah-bah-bah learner staff security working in now we're talking about the employees instances that are created the same time as a respective blah blah blah instances are biologically as soon as humans with the exception of lacking an appendix and having a total 12 toes so kind of like how this is similar to a good article with the exception that it's actually [ __ ] instances of scp-610 to utilize dirty and underhanded methods to sell their goods you know what that isn't that's not good clinical tone dirty and underhanded be goddamn specific even if the object irritant is that will cause extreme pain or death to the customer my [ __ ] god we went from potentially interesting to deadly in one sentence that's [ __ ] great on one occasion and attempting to sell the dismembered limbs of a deceased patron now we're getting edgy as unknown whether I think this is the how the law works what's the this in that sentence is unknown whether and thinks this is how the law works what the law works as selling dismembered limbs of a deceased patron that's not a law I mean there's a law against that I think what you mean is like they think it's okay to sell limbs of dismembered agents and that's not a sentence I ever thought I'd say in my life the [ __ ] are you even talking about here the the selling things dismembering people and selling them replacing supermarkets I don't know or they are intentionally being underhanded hmm SCP xxx' - two instances display a market lack of knowledge to our reality I think you mean of thank you accidentally the preposition in there somewhere yeah mm-hmm instances of any will be shut down after receiving any sort of legal warning legitimate or not so everything you've ever said about in the containment procedures or elsewhere about how to shut these down outside of legal warnings you could just serve them a legal warning and they shut down automatically Wow okay so you know I didn't point this out in your containment procedures but it applies here yeah that was all one paragraph why is that all one paragraph multiple discrete ideas being communicated but you just made it into one rib wolf touched the supermarket the employees the products legal ramifications these are all individual discrete ideas that can be communicated in their own paragraphs with their own focus instead you just decided to pack all four different things into one super-sized piece of [ __ ] paragraph stop it stop it right now you sir are a word criminal and I will not be party to your butchering of the English language anymore I want you to take this and the Spirit is given please don't take it personally like [ __ ] you and [ __ ] your [ __ ] face I will note in reading the rest of your draft I found a single piece that was useful that had intrinsic value and honestly I suggest you just start all over again and work from that idea a frozen box of corn dogs corn dogs resembled cartoonish dogs with small legs corn dogs were sentient and had intelligence comparable to average dogs dogs require no feed in your care dogs are inedible just do that just [ __ ] this thing and do that because trust me people [ __ ] love dogs other than that you know what for your egregious crimes against the English language I sentence you to stand in a supermarket checkout line for the rest of your life and God have mercy on your soul | Dr. Cimmerian | UC8AmK8BHcHwu6bV_2Vdt0yg | 2018-07-19 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 1,662 | 9,402 |
Yrn_yOv1OIA | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yrn_yOv1OIA | Data Movers: Jim Morozzi of DQE, Talks Network Expansion, Fueling Digital Transformation and more... | [Music] live from the jsa podcast studio presenting data movers showcasing the leaders behind the headlines in the telecom and data center infrastructure industry [Music] welcome everybody to our podcast series data movers i'm your host jamie scott okataya founder and ceo of jsa along with my fabulous co-host top b2b social media influencer mr evan cristo hey then hey everyone welcome to data movers where we sit down with the most influential men and women in today's data center and telco world supporting the network infrastructure requirements of this new normal jamie good to see you again awesome to see you and it is a spectacular day here at jsa we have so much celebration going on so uh after this podcast i'll have a glass of champagne in my hand um jsa is now able to say the 17th so we're able to announce that we made two amazing lists uh one top 100 elite pr agencies uh in the country uh by pr news and the second is uh the in the very famous inc 5000 list so um really exciting big news um and so huge kudos to our team to our clients our community uh for for this amazing uh benchmark here um those are huge milestones so so tell us looking back when did you start or found jsa how many years have you been running the company 16 and a half years ago so 16 and a half years so it's it's just a fast race to the top right that must have just flown by obviously you started the company when you were 16. so uh so there you go yes thank you i learned a lot since 16. well fantastic and i think you have another one of your fantastic clients and guests on today as well yeah and i'll tell you it's it's because of clients like uh like mr jim rozzi ceo and president of dqe communications who uh support us and and uh um allow allow for this world so let's let's get right to it um jim welcome to data movers thank you yeah welcome welcome jim great to uh to meet you i was actually just reading your bio uh just before uh the podcast here and you know starting from the beginning you actually went to a great philadelphia institution for school drexel university you got an mba and a degree in electric electrical engineering from drexel which is uh phenomenal so tell us do you do you still debug circuits in your spare time i wish you know i wish i still had those technical chops uh in me to be able to do that um and i always did enjoy the engineering aspect of things and uh you know it was great training coming through at drexel university you know maybe something that folks don't know about that is it's a five-year university so you do a co-op program there and you are working six months in industry and six months in the classroom so that's why it's a five-year program and i got just great great training and kind of confirmed for me that engineering is really what i like to do and so it was a great choice and it was a great way to sort of come out of school with knowledge what you're going to be doing well take your word on that i can barely stand three years at university but let's fast forward to now and tell us more about yourself and dqe communications and the businesses you serve uh sort of a an interesting combination of southwestern pennsylvania eastern ohio northern west virginia kind of what brought you to those markets sure happy to do so before i do that let me just congratulate jamie as well that's awesome good news for you and uh all great stuff so congrats thank you hey thanks for the opportunity to be here today uh certainly we're excited about that being able to partake in this and uh you know also excited about what we do and how we serve our customers so dq communications is a fiber optic data provider in southwestern pennsylvania primarily pittsburgh is our home that's where we have our roots that's where we've been doing business for many many years and they're the customers that we serve we serve the southwestern pa region northern west virginia eastern ohio and recently moved into the center of the state harrisburg pennsylvania as well so what we do is we build big fat data pipes for our customers and we do that with fiber optics and we connect all of these enterprises whether they're business enterprises or governmental institutions schools and school districts so that they can have the connectivity and the data access that they need it's been a really fulfilling and rewarding kind of a mission that we have got great great people with dqe communications they know the importance of serving the customer they know the importance of keeping the the circuits lit if you will you know the terminology that we use and how critical what we do is for their mission critical business whether you're talking about a hospital or a university they need these services and you know our team kind of looks at that and says that that's that's kind of job number one then we're really proud of that and i take it you're not a pittsburgh uh steelers fan at all i certainly have a pittsburgh steelers i consider myself kind of um a pan pennsylvania fan here because you know i spent time in the eastern part of the state in philadelphia and pittsburgh so you know when i first joined the the dqe family people gave me a little bit of a hard time because i came from the philadelphia region with the eagles and the steelers but i say they were all pennsylvanians and you can root for more than one team so i've tried to bring that to dqe as i've gotten there as well and you know talking about that um that expansion uh in the past couple of years from the pittsburgh metro area into the state capital harrisburg there what's it like to oversee a company's entry into a new market and and what is it like being you know the new competition on the block well you know it's exciting first of all to to do something new to build to grow to figure out you know what to do next so that's always the fun aspect of the job is to kind of thinking down the road a little bit um you know it's it's work it certainly is a lot of work uh as i said what we do is we build fiber optic networks so it's not something that happens overnight there's a lot of engineering a lot of planning that takes place a lot of interaction with local utility companies to gain access to polls and conduits and things of that nature so there's truly an engineering and a construction aspect of it first and foremost but then there's also the business aspect why would we go there what's the business opportunity how can we be helpful to customers what needs are not being met in a marketplace so you try to you know look at it from multiple perspectives here and for us you know the philosophy that we've had is to try to follow our customers where they are as i said we do a tremendous amount of business in the pittsburgh western pa region and we have a number of customers that also have presence in harrisburg the state capitol so since we're serving their needs locally in pittsburgh it's a natural extension to try to serve their needs also in those markets as well and that's that's how i would prefer to go about my growth in a very systematic kind of an approach there not always the case not always with the luxury of doing that but when you have that kind of an opportunity it makes a whole lot of sense and uh you know we've we've enjoyed it we've enjoyed kind of continuing to expand this network um you know we are one of the smaller players in in the fiber optic space you know you clearly have the large national players and things of that nature but for a company of our size and where we focus our efforts we build a solid you know network and a very deep rich fiber network in western pa and now moving into the center of the state and also into west virginia the northern part of west virginia as well interesting so as a metropolitan fiber provider you face pretty stiff competition from the giant players in our space uh who are of course known for their amazing customer service just kidding um so how do you differentiate yourself and what advice do you give to business leaders who who are facing competition from you know big tech or giants like like the ones you compete against well you know i mean i think you hit the nail on the head there in terms of service right so um large doesn't always mean bad service but large could indicate poor service i think we really do try to focus on knowing our customers and providing them unparalleled service being the local provider having the relationships with a local municipalities and the schools and the school districts and things like that i think it's critically important and you've got to be able to deliver on the commitments that you're making here you know we live work and kind of breathe in the community so we want to be good partners to all of our customers so we really do try to distinguish ourselves on that service aspect and i know a lot of people say that a lot of people sort of use that that phraseology but we really do try to take that to heart service is really important you know what we sell is something that could be provided by others the very very large national and international players and price certainly does come into customers decision making processes but they also give you credit for your reliability your ease of doing business and i think that's a really important concept for ease of doing business can they pick up the phone and get what they need can they get in a timely fashion is there someone to answer their phone call when they have an issue or a question as opposed to going through an inordinate phone tree to try to figure out you know who do i talk to if i have a problem or a concern so that's something that we've really tried to distinguish ourselves on is that service aspect but one other thing i wanted to kind of talk about with regard to how do i compete with these players that's the competition side but there's also an opportunity for me to serve them and that's a fairly significant part of my business so if you think about the kind of customers that i do really well with if they are locally based organizations whether they are you know headquartered in pittsburgh or their local municipalities local schools school districts they're pittsburgh centric customers and i have the best opportunity to work with them for those people that are national kind of customers maybe big box stores or retailers or things like that i don't necessarily have the relationships with them maybe one of my big competitors do and now they need to go fulfill in 50 cities or 75 cities and they come to a dqe communications to locally fulfill on their national contract so we've actually built a very nice business in being that last mile provider to some of these national customers who do business with the national providers so it's actually a nice win-win kind of a combination for us i love it coopetition that's right um and you you mentioned those locally owned locally based customers from the schools to financial companies the healthcare organizations commercial real estate developments business leaders are really trying to dig deep invest in those digital transformation uh processes right now what's driving all this oh boy i think there's a lot of things that are driving it certainly it's happening it's happening at an accelerated rate i think organizations whether you are a for-profit organization or a local government you're trying to make informed decisions and you're trying to make data-driven kinds of decisions you're trying to optimize your operations and take efficiencies or inefficiencies out of the equation and that's all predicated on access to good data it's all predicated on access to quick reliable data and having you know that that information absolutely when you need it so i think as organizations get more sophisticated are more motivated to make informed data-driven decisions their reliance on data analytics artificial intelligence all those kinds of things just becomes almost like a common way for them to conduct their operations and to enable all that they just need some of the the plumbing that we supply you know they need that sort of that physical connectivity you know years ago what you saw for larger enterprise businesses they would have in-house data centers they would sort of own their own steel they would sort of have their own space and air conditioning and then it moved to well you know are there locally based third-party data centers and they kind of move to that aspect well now the vast majority of enterprises are going to cloud-based services you know whether that be in ashland virginia or in chicago or places like that so they still need all these very very low latency high reliability kinds of fiber optic services that we provide because what that does it enables them to fulfill their mission much much more quickly that's fantastic it's really great to see advanced technologies in the data center and optical world move into uh new markets outside of the big tech centers and big cities in pennsylvania ohio west virginia actually the state of west virginia is a client of mine as helping them promote the state as a destination for startups and and even remote workers um you know what's what's inspiring you to grow into these markets and and and lead your company into these these new non-traditional tech tech markets and finding customers there yeah you know so it's trying to follow the opportunity um you mentioned west virginia you know there's an area down off i-79 high-tech partners they promote themselves um and they're having some nice success you know they are saying we are not the traditional area where you would see a lot of high-tech kind of companies like a silicon valley or places like that but there are smart people all over this country and you can locate them anywhere and be super productive and super creative and develop products and services so we're seeing more of that throughout the us and fortunately we're in an area where people you know are locating and tend to want to locate so we're simply just trying to make sure we understand the landscape and to be responsive to that and if we're smart enough be just a little bit ahead of that so we know where to go with with our bills and try to be helpful to people you know we're fortunate in that the pittsburgh region has a couple really great universities and it really does develop new talent and the new talent is more technologically oriented one university that comes to mind carnegie mellon university extremely strong with robotics computer programming computer science they spin off a lot of sort of new startups and you know what we've seen as a result of some of those kinds of things is that the driverless car industry really is kind of there's a nexus in pittsburgh because of just that feedstock of smart individuals so you know they're kind of examples of what we're seeing in terms of technological development sort of the ai robotics drivers cars those kinds of things process automation as well and then the other thing that we we really see in a very big fashion in pittsburgh is just the the medical services companies we've got some great uh health care services in in the pittsburgh region and they're on the forefront also developing technology and and therapeutics and treatments as well so it sort of breeds that that mindset and it's great for an area in an economy to have that so you know that begs this question i'm not sure you can answer it yet or not but are you planning any future network expansions to new markets maybe so thank you for asking well the answer is yes the short answer is yes but i can't tell you where and when fair enough we're constantly looking for how do we expand how do we grow and how do we sort of be relevant to customers um since i've been in dqe communications we've grown the network kind of about twofold and again i know we're one of the smaller sort of providers out there compared to the large national players but you know we do try to focus on being helpful to customers and where there's real opportunities and we are looking for those other expansions as well where we believe we can be helpful and provide a service that others maybe are not not able to sort of fulfill as i said earlier in my comments we try to find areas where we have an existing customer that has a you know another location in a different city a different geography where we can be helpful to them you know i i use an expression where we want to be bigger than what we are but not as big as some of those other players you know some people say you're you know you're small but big but big and small yeah i'm trying to find that nice middle ground where we can still be a person that delivers top-notch service and not just lost in processes and bureaucracies and things like that yes nice approach well let's let's shift gears talk about business and leadership from your perspective what makes a good ceo and president what's your sort of philosophy on leadership besides just being a super nice guy which you clearly are oh well thank you for that that's nice to hear um sometimes my employees wouldn't say that you know i i think that as a leader you you certainly have to have the best interest of the stakeholders at heart and when i think of stakeholders i really do think about all of the stakeholders i think about our team members i think about our customers and i think about the owners of our business as well and i think a good leader particularly good ceo has to give attention to each of those three major components you know you need to focus on each one and not uh sort of give short attention to one versus another all three are very very important you gotta have great employees and you have to have great employees who are doing their best and and have the right kind of incentives and the right kind of rewards in order to do that you got to serve the customers well and that happens because of great employees and you need to have the capital access and the capital funding and you know give a very good return to investors so that they continue to want to provide you with the capital necessary to expand so i think that's kind of first and foremost it's just trying to find that right balance amongst all the stakeholders what comes right under that um you know it's it's really making sure that you are very clear to the organization of what your mission is we are here to support other people fulfill on their mission you know we are here so that the universities in our area can do what they do well so that the hospitals can do what they do well so that the data centers can so we got to be very clear that we're a customer centric organization and we will you know move whatever obstacles in the way in order to satisfy the customer deliver the reliability provide the ease of doing business if there is an issue or a problem you work on it you get it done right away everybody has problems everybody has a blip it's how you respond to those blips that really defines your character and defines how you have that customer relationship because again you know we would all be foolish if we sat here thinking that you know you never have an issue you never have a problem everybody does it's how you respond to those issues i think it's important and then the last thing i just want to sort of get across is i think it's it's important that you uh you sort of stay connected and stay grounded with with your employees and your customers you need to understand what's going on you need to communicate a lot you need to be in front of people a lot you need to listen and that's something that i had to learn over my career and i had to learn to listen more and talk less because you know as you're sort of growing up through your career you think well i've got the answer to that i know what to do i know how to do that um and you might be right but listening is a skill and it's a critical skill that i think good leaders have developed and honed over time they know when to listen and stay silent they know when to add perspective they know when to call on others to join in to be part of the solution and i'll tell you i am still a work in progress i am still somebody who is uh trying to figure it out and get better at this and kind of hone these things in but i think that's a that's an important thing i said earlier you know i'm an engineer by training you know engineers we love to see how things work we love to sort of peel back the uh the blankets and see how everything is built my my issue from time to time is i drop down into the weeds you know i i want to see how this is built or what's going on or what the root causes are every once in a while i've got to remind myself to kind of come back up to the 10 000 foot view level and let my subject matter experts kind of work what they need to work and me just kind of asking the appropriate questions and making sure that people are you know kind of uh staying on task or or being responsive to the deliverables there yeah that is so hard as a leader um i i i definitely hear that and another thing that really spoke to me was um when you said you know it's your your grit kind of shows um how you respond uh to issues and and for sure you know leaving a company through any type of change is hard enough but when it comes to leading a company through a global pandemic you know the stakes are just at an all-time high um what are some of the lessons maybe that you learned as a ceo for this past year and a half yeah so certainly law i learned a lot of lessons um you know i think the most important one is the need to still stay connected with everyone even in this virtual environment we were really really good in terms of making that transition from being physically in the office to working remotely whether it's from our homes or from some other location and you know your technology solves that problem and you know your planning solves all those kinds of problems but what it doesn't solve is just the the connection this and i know i don't know if it's a word or not but the connection is to your employees you know you can sort of have a zoom call or a teams call or something like that but you got to go beyond that and you've got to sort of still take the time and the effort to check in with people make sure that folks are doing okay giving folks an opportunity to just kind of talk and you know get out their emotions we all bumped into one another getting a cup of coffee we all sort of talked about the steelers on monday morning after the sunday game when we were in the office together and that stopped and it stopped abruptly but so how do you sort of replace some of those interactions that you're having and i think it was really important for us to focus in on that and make sure that we still paid attention to it the other thing i learned is just the importance of pre-planning and to go through those exercises of risk mitigation and try to plan for the events that were just kind of whiteboard exercises i could tell you that we didn't really sort of think that a global pandemic was something that was possible or plausible but we did plan for a major event that took us out of our offices for a seven day period we thought what if a major hurricane or major storm event or some other event to shut down major parts of pittsburgh and we could not get our employees into offices and we could not sort of do business as we had done business in the past what technologies tools protocols processes would be put in place to make that happen so we were ready for a remote work environment we were ready with all of the technology everyone our employees had laptops you know and they they were taking us home each and every night we we practice everyone vp and ending into the networks all at the same time to make sure we had the bandwidth and the capabilities and capacity so the the effort and the the time you put into those things paid off handsomely for us our transition was seamless it really was seamless conversely i could tell you you know i know i talked with a number of our customers they were really scrambling to go get a thousand laptops for their employees who routinely worked in the office and work from desktop terminals and now they're working from their homes and how do they connect how do they do all those things so just that pre-planning and going through that risk mitigation kind of mindset really is important i think it really helped us quite a bit yeah it's all about resilience that's for sure it is it is you know we build resilience into our networks we make sure we've got dual paths we've got you know sort of closed rings and all that stuff and 2n technology but how do you how do you build resiliency into the processes how do you build resiliency into these kind of things that a lot of people don't think about does everybody have internet access at home does everybody have a laptop they could take from the office so we can continue to do what we need to do yeah and i think that we can bring this to a little bit more of our personal flavor right now uh right and then we usually like to get a little bit more about uh here here from uh oh yeah that'd be fun so so tell us around uh pittsburgh what do you do in your spare time when they're not leading and managing a company you know so um pittsburgh really has some great neighborhoods um there's a number of great restaurants so you know i don't say i'm a foodie but i like to cook i certainly do and i like to go out to eat so i like to try new places try new restaurants and we're very fortunate that we've got a lot of new places that uh have done well this is pretty pandemic i have to admit you know a lot of restaurants were just continuing to open and boom in 2019 and 2020 came and 2021 is here and things are still a little bit challenging from a restaurant perspective but that's that's a fun thing for me to do um you don't have you don't have to drive all the way to philadelphia to get a good cheese steak yes you do there are some good places in pittsburgh that have a cheesesteak but uh you know i i was born and raised in philadelphia um and i could tell you that i think i probably know the vast majority of cheese take places in philly and i certainly have an older priority which i think are good uh and i know that uh cheesesteaks and philly are pretty darn good for sure so that brings us to our rapid fire section of this interview so we just uh throw some quick questions out there and tell us the first thing that comes to mind so talking foodie what is your favorite food that might surprise us uh veal parm veal parm reveal salt and vodka i love italian food uh yeah that's right i grew up in an italian family my mom was a fantastic cook my grandfather was an italian immigrant so um you know italian food particularly field apartment phil swanson vodka yeah no question well we're gonna have to get together with jamie and uh in uh federal hill in in providence exactly have some good italian at some point so right that's right we i know where it's at uh jamie scott okataya um so uh okay if you could watch one movie and this could actually be horrible on repeat for 24 hours straight those eyes eyeballs up uh what would it be what's your favorite movie national lampoon's christmas vacation oh that's a shocker you know that is a funny funny movie i can't say that i've ever sat and watched it for 24 hours straight but during the christmas season i will watch that thing five six seven times i know almost every line to it i know everything that's coming but it still makes me laugh and i think it's just a riot and uh you know when i'm watching a movie i'd rather laugh and cry so that's what i'm that's what i'm interested in here here and anything that gets me the christmas spirit i'm all about too i'm like christmas in july around here um so if you could try out any job for just one day what would you choose i would be a framing carpenter um you know i just love building uh you know i sort of tinker a little bit with woodworking and stuff like that but uh you know maybe it's the engineering background but to be part of a crew that just builds homes and you know just to see the way those things get thrown up anymore you know two three days you have a house framed that looks like a lot of fun and as i said i've sort of taken a lot with my own personal projects but i would love to be a framing carpenter i think it would be just a blast to do that yeah well they're they're in great demand and uh well thanks for joining us jim it's been really great learning about your vision and the way you're helping customers and we can't wait to come down one day and see a steelers game so we'll uh we'll keep that on the back burner but uh really great hearing about your vision and team thanks so much it was a pleasure being with you all today i enjoyed our conversation and uh i look forward to having you coming to pittsburgh okay yeah absolutely steelers game that's a bang that sounds great and guys if you enjoyed listening to today's data movies

EUg67POtPQU | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EUg67POtPQU | Acid Base Neutralization Reactions | acid/base or neutralization reactions okay so let's talk first about the definition of an acid so a very very simple definition is an ionic compound that contains h+ as the cation so basically that's a hydrogen without its electron now it's slightly incorrect but it is a useful approximation a little bit better definition of an acid is any compound that increases the amount of hydrogen ion h+ in an aqueous solution now you may see this definition with h3o plus hydronium ion replacing the h+ and basically that just says that an h+ has attached itself to a water molecule and so then we call it hydronium that's the hydronium ion now in many chemical and reactions you're gonna see hydronium and h+ used equivalently alright so what about a base and basically that's the chemical opposite of an acid and a base is a compound that increases the amount of hydroxide ion income in solution so here's hydroxide ion and any anything that increases the concentration of that is going to be a base you're going to see a lot of the bases are that we're going to see in this class at least are going to contain the the hydroxide ion directly now these original definitions were proposed by Irenaeus in 1884 so we usually refer to these as the Irenaeus definition of an acid and a base okay so what about neutralization reactions that is when we react an acid with a base when we do that so you can see here we are reacting acid and a base we're going to get water and a salt okay so we're gonna learn how to write these out now in chemistry a salt is generally any ionic compound it can be soluble it can be insoluble and it's any ionic compound that's formed between an acid and a base and so it definitely refers to more than just table salt or sodium chloride all right so it let's practice a little bit let's identify the acid in the base in the reaction between HCl and Koh okay so this is hydrochloric acid so this is dissolved in solution soluble that's the acid so when we dissolve this in solution we're gonna have chloride ion out anions and we're going to have h+ so there is our acid that increases the concentration of h+ in solution our base contains the hydroxide anion so os- and potassium plus that's the base now remember when we write the reaction we're going to take our acid plus our base and we're going to end up with water and the salt so the salt is gonna be like if we look at these two compounds here's our cation k plus potassium plus and chloride minus and we're gonna put those two guys together there's our salt there's our ionic compound and the h+ is going to react with the hydroxide and that's gonna give us water so Oh H minus C then we're gonna add that that hydrogen there and then you're gonna have a neutral compound and that's gonna be water all right so let's look at another example let's take hydrochloric acid again and this time let's react it with magnesium hydroxide so again increases the concentration of h+ so this is easily identified as the acid okay let's look at the magnesium hydroxide here's the hydroxide anion and notice each one of these is -1 there's two of them magnesium is in the second group on the periodic table so that's magnesium two-plus okay and we're gonna write out the products remember we're always going to get water and then we're gonna get a salt so our salt is gonna be composed of magnesium and chloride so magnesium is two plus that means we need two of these chlorides to make magnesium chloride to balance out that charge when we write that ionic town or that salt and then we have two hydroxides and two hydrogen's H+ and we're gonna get two molecules of water out of this so watch out for that when you're writing reactions you're not necessarily gonna just have one coefficient you know so a 1 coefficient in front of each one of these you're gonna have to make sure that everything is balanced now again just to reiterate the salt in this equation is the magnesium chloride okay so let's look at a neutralization reaction with a reactant in the solid phase so this can happen - it doesn't have to be soluble in water so if we react hydrochloric acid again and let's look at iron hydroxide so again each Oh H is minus 1 so this is iron three-plus and it's a solid iron hydroxide is a is you know it's a solid so let's go ahead and again write out the products so our salt is going to be iron paired with chloride and we're going to use as many chlorides as we need to balance out that charge we know this is 3 plus and so that means we need 3 chlorides here ok there's iron chloride and then you're going to have 3 H plus 3 hydroxide so we're gonna get 3 molecules of water now it just interestingly iron hydroxide is a component of rust so some cleaning solutions for rust stains actually contain acids and that's because the neutralization products so like iron chloride for instance and of course water these are soluble and they just wash away ok so just to summarize the Irenaeus definition of an acid is a substance that increases the amount of H+ or hydronium h3o plus in an aqueous solution the definition of a base is a substance that increases the amount of hydroxide in an aqueous solution neutralization is the reaction of an acid with a base and it's always going to form a water and a salt so you want to practice identifying acids and bases and you want to practice writing out neutralization reactions and as usual it gets easier the more you do it | Shawn Shields | UCaoV5G6Xe2Voq29NQCNWlBA | 2019-06-12 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 1,017 | 5,445 |

political philosophy often refers to a general view or specific ethic political belief or attitude about politics synonymous to the term political ideology political philosophy is a branch of philosophy within political science a strong focus has historically been placed on the role of political philosophy also known as normative theory moral philosophy and the humanities although in recent years there has been increased focus to political theory based on quantitative methodological approaches as well as economic theory the Natural Sciences and behavioral ism topic history you

samanu parasara and ambi and described himself as a descendant of a lineage of political philosophers with his father chana curbing his immediate predecessor another influential extant Indian treatise on political philosophy is the Sukhram ET an example of a code of law in ancient India is the Manas murti or laws of Manu topic ancient China Chinese political philosophy dates back to the spring and autumn period specifically with Confucius in the sixth century BC Chinese political philosophy was developed as a response to the social and political breakdown of the country characteristic of the Spring and Autumn Period and the warring States Period the major philosophies during the period Confucianism legalism mohism agrarianism and Taoism each had a political aspect to their philosophical schools philosophers such as Confucius Mencius and mozi focused on political unity and political stability as the basis of their political philosophies Confucianism advocated a hierarchical meritocratic government based on empathy loyalty and interpersonal relationships legalism advocated a highly authoritarian government based on draconian punishments and laws mohism advocated a communal decentralized government centered on frugality and ascetism the agrarians advocated a peasant utopian communalism and a Galit arianism Taoism advocated a proto anarchism legalism was the dominant political philosophy of the Qin Dynasty but was replaced by state Confucianism in the Han Dynasty prior to China's adoption of communism state Confucianism remained the dominant political philosophy of China up to the 20th century topic ancient Greece Western political philosophy originates in the philosophy of ancient Greece where political philosophy dates back to at least Plato ancient Greece was dominated by city states which experimented with various forms of political organization grouped by Plato into five categories of descending stability and morality monarchy democracy oligarchy democracy and tyranny one of the first extremely important classical works of political philosophy is Plato's Republic which was followed by Aristotle's Nicomachean ethics and politics Roman political philosophy was influenced by the Stoics and the Roman statesman Cicero topic medieval Christianity you topic Saint Augustine the early Christian philosophy of Augustine of Hippo was heavily influenced by Plato a key change brought about by Christian thought was the moderation of the stoicism and theory of Justice of the Roman world as well emphasis on the role of the state in applying mercy as a moral example Augustine also preached that one was not a member of his or her City but was either a citizen of the City of God savita's day or the city of man savita's toreno Augustine's City of God is an influential work of this period that attacked the thesis held by many Christian Romans that the Christian view could be realized on earth topic Saint Thomas Aquinas Thomas Aquinas meticulously dealt with the varieties of law according to Aquinas there are four kinds of law eternal law the divine government of everything divine positive law having been posited by God external to human nature natural law the right way of living discoverable by natural reason what cannot not be known internal to human nature human law what we commonly call law including customary law the law of their communities perfect Aquinas never discusses the nature or categorization of canon law there is scholarly debate surrounding the place of canon law within the Thomas t'k jurisprudential framework Aquinas was an incredibly influential thinker in the natural law tradition topic Islamic political evolution you topic mutase alight versus a sure eat the rise of Islam based on both the Quran and Muhammad strongly altered the power balances and perceptions of origin of power in the Mediterranean region early Islamic philosophy emphasized an inexorable link between science and religion and the process of IT had to find truth in effect all philosophy was political as it had real implications for governance this view was challenged by their rationalist mutase alight philosophers who held a more Hellenic view reason above Revelation and as such a known to modern scholars as the first speculative theologians of Islam they were supported by a secular aristocracy who sought freedom of action independent of the caliphate by the late ancient period however the traditionalist Ashur each view of Islam had in general triumphed according to the ash treats reason must be subordinate to the Quran and the Sunna Islamic political philosophy was indeed rooted in the very sources of Islam ie the Quran and the Sunnah the words and practices of Muhammad thus making it essentially t ik r attic however in the Western thought it is generally supposed that it was a specific area peculiar merely to the great philosophers of Islam al Kindi al kindess al Farabi abanazar i benzina Avicenna urban Baha avim pace and urban Rushdie Averroes the political conceptions of Islam's such as Kouta power sultan omer sem our obligation and even their call terms of the Quran ie ibadah worship Din religion Rabb master Andy deity is taken as the basis of an analysis hence not only the ideas of the Muslim political philosophers but also many other jurists and bool AMA opposed political ideas and theories for example the ideas of the car soiree in the very early years of Islamic history on killifer and Ummah or that of Shia Islam on the concept of a marmora considered proofs of political thought the clashes between the eh allies Sunnah and Shia in the 7th and 8th centuries had a genuine political character political thought was not purely rooted in theism however Aristotle anism flourished as the Islamic Golden Age saw rise to a continuation of the peripheral accrual Asif s who implemented the ideas of Aristotle in the context of the Islamic world abanazar Avicenna and eben Rushdie we're part of this philosophical school who claimed that human reasons surpassed mere coincidence and revelation they believed for example that natural phenomena occurs because of certain rules made by God not because God interfered directly unlike al-ghazali and his followers other notable political philosophers of the time include nizam al-mulk a persian scholar and vizier of the seljuq empire who composed the Shires at nama or their book of government in english in it he details the role of the state in terms of political affairs ie how to deal with political opponents without ruining the government's image as well as its duty to protect the poor and reward the worthy in his other work he explains how the state should deal with other issues such as supplying jobs to immigrants like the turkmens who were coming from the north present-day southern Russia Kazakhstan Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan you topic urban cul d'une the 14th century Arab scholar IBN khaldoun is considered one of the greatest political theorists the british philosopher anthropologist Ernest Gellner consider dibban kal Dunn's definition of government less than pre greater than slash pre greater than dot dot dot an institution which prevents injustice other than such as it commits itself the best in the history of political theory friggin khaldoun government should be restrained to a minimum for is a necessary evil it is the constraint of men by other man topic medieval Europe medieval political philosophy in Europe was heavily influenced by Christian thinking it had much in common with the mutase alight Islamic thinking in that the Roman Catholics though subordinating philosophy to theology did not subject reason to revelation but in the case of contradictions subordinated reason to faith as the ash treat of Islam the Scholastic's by combining the philosophy of Aristotle with the Christianity of st. Augustine emphasized the potential harmony inherent in reason and revelation perhaps the most influential political philosopher of medieval Europe was st. Thomas Aquinas who helped reintroduce Aristotle's works which had only been transmitted to Catholic Europe through Muslim Spain along with the commentaries of of arrows Aquinas says use of them set the agenda for scholastic political philosophy dominated European thought for centuries even unto the Renaissance medieval political philosophers such as Aquinas in Summa Theologica developed the idea that a king who is a tyrant is no king at all and could be overthrown magna carta viewed by many as a cornerstone of anglo-american political Liberty explicitly proposes the right to revolt against the ruler for justice sake other documents similar to Magna Carta are found in other European countries such as Spain and Hungary topic European Renaissance during the Renaissance secular political philosophy began to emerge after about a century of theological political thought in Europe while the Middle Ages did see secular politics in practice under the rule of the Holy Roman Empire the academic field was wholly scholastic and therefore Christian in nature topic niccolò machiavelli one of the most influential works during this burgeoning period was niccolò machiavelli x' though prints written between 1511 to 12 and published in 1532 after Machiavelli's death that work as well as the discourses a rigorous analysis of the Classical period did much to influence modern political thought in the West a minority including jean-jacques rousseau interpreted the prince as a satire meant to be given to the Medici after their recapture of Florence and the subsequent expulsion of Machiavelli from Florence though the work was written for the dime adichie family in order to perhaps influence them to free him from exile Machiavelli supported the Republic of Florence rather than the oligarchy of the de Medici family at any rate Machiavelli presents a pragmatic and somewhat consequentialist view of politics whereby good and evil a mere means used to bring about an end ie the secure and powerful state Thomas Hobbes well known for his theory of the social contract goes on to expand this view at the start of the 17th century during the English Renaissance although neither Machiavelli nor Hobbes believed in the Divine Right of Kings they both believed in the inherent selfishness of the individual it was necessarily this belief that led them to adopt a strong central power as the only means of preventing the disintegration of the social order topic European enlightenment during the Enlightenment period new theories about what the human was and is and about the definition of reality and the way it was perceived along with the discovery of other societies in the Americas and the changing needs of political societies especially in the wake of the English Civil War the American Revolution the French Revolution and the Haitian Revolution led to new questions and insights by such thinkers as Thomas Hobbes John Locke Montesquieu and jean-jacques Rousseau these theorists were driven by two basic questions one by what right or need do people form States and two what the best form for a state could be these fundamental questions involved a conceptual distinction between the concepts of States and government it was decided that states would refer to a set of enduring institutions through which power would be distributed and its use justified the term government would refer to a specific group of people who occupied the institutions of the state and create the laws and ordinances by which the people themselves included would be bound this conceptual distinction continues to operate in political science although some political scientists philosophers historians and cultural anthropologists have argued that most political action in any given society occurs outside of its states and that there are societies that are not organized into states that nevertheless must be considered in political terms as long as the concept of natural order was not introduced the social sciences could not evolve independently of theistic thinking since the Cultural Revolution of the 17th century in England which spread to France and the rest of Europe society has been considered subject to natural laws akin to the physical world political and economic relations were drastically influenced by these theories as the concept of the guild was subordinated to the theory of free trade and Roman Catholic dominance of theology was increasingly challenged by Protestant churches subordinate to each nation-state which also in a fashion the Roman Catholic Church often decry angrily preached in the vulgar or native language of each region however the Enlightenment was an outright attack on religion particularly Christianity the most outspoken critic of the church in France was Francoise Maria ro ADA Voltaire a representative figure of the Enlightenment after Voltaire religion would never be the same again in France in the Ottoman Empire these ideological reforms did not take place and these views did not integrate into common thought until much later as well there was no spread of this doctrine within the new world and the advanced civilizations of the Aztec Maya Inca Mohican Delaware Huron and especially the Iroquois the Iroquois philosophy in particular gave much to Christian thought of the time and in many cases actually inspired some of the institutions adopted in the United States for example Benjamin Franklin was a great admirer of some of the methods of the Iroquois Confederacy and much of early American literature emphasized the political philosophy of the natives topic John Locke John Locke in particular exemplified this new age of political theory with his work two treatises of government in it locked proposes a state of nature theory that directly complements his conception of how political development occurs and how it can be founded through contractual obligation Locke stood to refute Sir Robert filmers paternally founded political theory in favor of a natural system based on nature in a particular given system the theory of the Divine Right of Kings became a passing fancy exposed to the type of ridicule with which John Locke treated it unlike Machiavelli and Hobbes but like Aquinas Locke would accept Aristotle's dictum that man seeks to be happy in a state of social harmony as a social animal unlike Aquinas as preponderant view on the salvation of the soul from original sin Locke believes man's mind comes into this world as tabula rasa for Locke knowledge is neither innate revealed nor based on authority but subject or uncertainty tempered by reason tolerance and moderation according to Locke an absolute ruler as proposed by Hobbes is unnecessary for natural law is based on reason and seeking peace and survival for man topic industrialization in the modern era the Marxist critique of capitalism developed with Friedrich angles was alongside liberalism and fascism one of the defining ideological movements of the 20th century the Industrial Revolution produced a parallel revolution in political thought urbanization and capitalism greatly reshaped society during this same period the socialist movement began to form in the mid 19th century Marxism was developed and socialism in general gained increasing popular support mostly from the urban working class without breaking entirely from the past Marx established principles that would be used by future revolutionaries of the 20th century namely Vladimir Lenin Mao Zedong Ho Chi Minh and Fidel Castro though Hegel's philosophy of history is similar to Immanuel Kant and Karl Marx's theory of revolution towards the common good is partly based on cants view of history marks declared that he was turning Hegel's dialectic which was standing on its head the right-side up again unlike Marx who believed in historical materialism Hegel believed in the phenomenology of spirit by the late 19th century socialism and trade unions were established members of the political landscape in addition the various branches of anarchism with thinkers such as Mikhail Bakunin pierre-joseph Proudhon or Peter Kropotkin and syndicalism also gained some prominence in the anglo-american world anti-imperialism and pluralism began gaining currency at the turn of the 20th century World War one was a watershed event in human history changing views of governments and politics the Russian Revolution of 1917 and similar albeit less successful revolutions in many other European countries brought communism and in particular the political theory of Leninism but also on a smaller level Luxembourg ISM gradually on the world stage at the same time Social Democratic parties won elections and formed governments for the first time often as a result of the introduction of universal suffrage topic contemporary from the end of World War two until 1971 when John Rawls published a theory of justice political philosophy declined in the anglo-american academic world as analytic philosophers expressed skepticism about the possibility that normative judgments had cognitive content and political science turned toward statistical methods and behavioral ISM in continental Europe on the other hand the post-war decades saw a huge blossoming of political philosophy with Marxism dominating the field this was the time of jean-paul sartre and Louis all dasa and the victories of Mao Zedong in China and Fidel Castro in Cuba as well as the events of May 1968 led to increased interest in revolutionary ideology especially by the new left a number of continental European emigrate of Britain in the United States including Karl Popper Friedrich Hayek Leo Strauss Isaiah Berlin Eric Voegelin and Judith Skaar encouraged continued study in political philosophy in the anglo-american world but in the 1950s and 1960s they and the students remained at odds with the analytic establishment communism remained an important focus especially during the 1950s and 1960s colonialism and racism were important issues that arose in general there was a marked trend towards a pragmatic approach to political issues rather than a philosophical one much academic debate regarded one or both of two pragmatic topics how or whether to apply utilitarianism to problems of political policy or how or whether to apply economic models such as rational theory to political issues the rise of feminism LGBT social movements and the end of colonial rule and of the political exclusion of such minorities as African Americans and sexual minorities in the developed world has led to feminist post-colonial and multicultural thought becoming significant this led to a challenge to the social contract by philosophers Charles W Mills in his book the racial contract and Carol Peyman in her book the sexual contract that the social contract excluded persons of color and women respectively in anglo-american academic political philosophy the publication of John Rawls is a theory of justice in 1971 is considered a milestone rules used a thought experiment the original position in which representative parties choose principles of justice for the basic structure of society from behind a veil of ignorance rules also offered a criticism of utilitarian approaches to questions of political justice Robert Nozick's 1974 Birkin a key state and utopia which won a National Book Award responded to Rawls from a libertarian perspective and gained academic respectability for libertarian viewpoints contemporaneously with the rise of analytic ethics in anglo-american thought in Europe several new lines of philosophy directed at critique of existing societies arose between the 1950s and 1980s most of these took elements of marxist economic analysis but combined them with a more cultural or ideological emphasis out of the Frankfurt School thinkers like Herbert Marcuse er Theodor W Adorno Max Horkheimer and Jurgen Habermas combined Markson and Freudian perspectives along somewhat different lines a number of other continental thinkers still largely influenced by Marxism put new emphasis on structuralism and honor returned to Hegel within the post structuralist line though mostly not taking that label our thinkers such as Jill Deleuze Mitchell Foucault Claude LeFort and Jean Baudrillard the Situationists were more influenced by Hegel Guy Debord in particular moved a Marxist analysis of commodity fetishism to the realm of consumption and looked at the relation between consumerism and dominant ideology formation another debate developed around that distinct criticisms of liberal political theory made by Michael Walter Michael Sandel and Charles Taylor the liberal communitarian debate is often considered valuable for generating a new set of philosophical problems rather than a profound and illuminating clash of perspective these and other communitarians such as Alistair McIntyre and Daniel a Bell argue that contre liberalism communities are prior to individuals and therefore should be the center of political focus communitarians tend to support greater local control as well as economic and social policies which encourage the growth of social capital a pair of overlapping political perspectives arising toward the end of the 20th century a republicanism or neo or Civic republicanism and the capability approach the resurgent republican movement aims to provide an alternate definition of Liberty from Isaiah Berlin's positive and negative forms of Lib namely liberty as non domination unlike the American liberal movement which understands Liberty as non-interference non domination entails individuals not being subject to the arbitrary will of any other person to a liberal a slave who is not interfered with may be free yet to a Republican the mere status as a slave regardless of how that slave is treated is objectionable prominent Republicans include historian Quentin Skinner jurist Cass Sunstein and political philosopher Philip Pettit the capability approach pioneered by economists ma babble hack and Amartya Sen and further developed by legal scholar Martha Nussbaum understands freedom under allied lines the real-world ability to act both the capability approach and republicanism treat choice as something which must be resourced in other words it is not enough to be legally able to do something but to have the real option of doing it current emphasis on commoditization of the every day has been decried by many contemporary theorists some of them arguing the full brunt of it would be felt in 10 years time prize saying such ethical categories like personal relations or sex though always present pushed by media agenda is thus seen as crossing boundaries and having adverse societal and philosophical consequences a prominent subject in recent political philosophy is the theory of deliberative democracy the seminal work was done by Jurgen Habermas in Germany but the most extensive literature has been in English led by theorists such as Jane Mansbridge Joshua Cohen Amy Goodman and Dennis Thompson topic influential political philosophers a larger list of political philosophers is intended to be closer to exhaustive listed below are some of the most canonical or important thinkers and especially philosophers whose central focus was in political philosophy and/or who are good representatives of a particular school of thought Thomas Aquinas in synthesizing Christian theology and peripatetic Aristotelian teaching in his treatise on law Aquinas contends that God's gift of higher reason manifest in human law by way of the divine virtues gives way to the Assembly of righteous government Aristotle wrote his politics as an extension of his Nicomachean ethics notable for the theories that humans are social animals and that the polis ancient Greek city-state existed to bring about the good life appropriate to such animals his political theory is based upon an ethics of perfectionism as is Marx's on some readings Mikhail Bakunin after pierre-joseph Proudhon bakunin became the most important political philosopher of anarchism his specific version of anarchism is called collectivist anarchism Jeremy Bentham the first thinker to analyze social justice in terms of maximization of aggregate individual benefits founded the philosophical ethical school of thought known as utilitarianism Isaiah Berlin developed the distinction between positive and negative Liberty Edmund Burke Irish member of the British Parliament Burke is credited with the creation of conservative thought Burke's reflections on the revolution in France is the most popular of his writings where he denounced the French Revolution Burke was one of the biggest supporters of the American Revolution Confucius the first thinker to relate ethics to the political order William E Connolly helped introduce postmodern philosophy into political theory and promoted new theories of pluralism and agonistic democracy John Dewey co-founder of pragmatism and analyzed the essential role of education in the maintenance of democratic government han feizi the major figure of the Chinese for here legalist school advocated government that adhered to laws and a strict method of administration Michele Foucault critiqued the modern conception of power on the basis of the prison complex and other prohibitive institutions such as those that designate sexuality madness and knowledge as the roots of their infrastructure a critique that demonstrated that subjection is the power formation of subjects in any linguistic forum and that revolution cannot just be thought as the reversal of power between classes antonia graham she instigated the concept of hegemony argued that the state and the ruling class uses culture and ideology to gain the consent of the classes it rules over Thomas Hill Greene modern liberal thinker and early supporter of positive freedom Jurgen Habermas contemporary Democratic theorist and sociologist he has pioneered such concepts as the public sphere communicative action and deliberative democracy his early work was heavily influenced by the Frankfurt School Friedrich Hayek he argued that central planning was inefficient because members of central bodies could not know enough to match the Preferences of consumers and workers with existing conditions Hayek further argued that central economic planning a mainstay of socialism would lead to a total state with dangerous power he advocated free-market capitalism in which the main role of the state is to maintain the rule of law and let spontaneous order develop GWF Hegel emphasized their cunning of history arguing that it followed a rational trajectory even while embodying seemingly irrational forces influenced Marx kick ago Nietzsche and Oakshott Thomas Hobbes generally considered to have first articulated how the concept of a social contract that justifies the actions of rulers even where contrary to the individual desires of governed citizens can be reconciled with a conception of sovereignty David Hume Hume criticized the social contract theory of John Locke and others as resting on a myth of some actual agreement Hume was a realist in recognizing the role of force to forge the existence of states and that consent of the governed was merely hypothetical he also introduced the concept of utility later picked up on and developed by Jeremy Bentham Thomas Jefferson politician and political theorist during the American Enlightenment expanded on the philosophy of Thomas Paine by instrumenting republicanism in the United States most famous for the United States Declaration of Independence Immanuel Kant argued that participation in civil society is undertaken not for self-preservation as per Thomas Hobbes but as a moral duty first modern thinker who fully analyzed structure and meaning of obligation argued that an international organization was needed to preserve world peace Peter Kropotkin one of the classic anarchist thinkers and the most influential theory Stav anarcho-communism johnlock like hobbs described a social contract theory based on citizens fundamental rights in the state of nature he departed from Hobbes in that based on the assumption of a society in which moral values are independent of governmental authority and widely shared he argued for a government with power limited to the protection of personal property his arguments may have been deeply influential to the formation of the United States Constitution niccolò machiavelli first systematic analyses of one how consent of a populace is negotiated between and among rulers rather than simply a naturalistic or theological given of the structure of society two precursor to the concept of ideology in articulating the epistemological structure of commands and law James Madison American politician and protege of Jefferson considered to be father of the Constitution and father of the Bill of Rights of the United States as a political theorist he believed in separation of powers and proposed a comprehensive set of checks and balances that are necessary to protect the rights of an individual from the tyranny of the majority Herbert Marcuse II called the father of the new left one of the principal thinkers within the Frankfurt School and generally important in efforts to fuse the thought of Sigmund Freud and Carl Marx introduced the concept of repressive D sublimation in which social control can operate not only by direct control but also by manipulation of desire his work here us and civilization and notion of a non repressive Society was influential on the 1960s and its countercultural social movements Carl Marx in large part added the historical dimension to an understanding of society culture and economics created the concept of ideology in the sense of true or false beliefs that shape and control social actions analyzed the fundamental nature of class as a mechanism of governance and social interaction profoundly influenced world politics with his theory of communism Mencius one of the most important thinkers in the Confucian school he is the first theorist to make a coherent argument for an obligation of rulers to the ruled Johnston Mill a utilitarian and the person who named the system he goes further than Bentham by laying the foundation for Liberal Democratic thought in general and modern as opposed to classical liberalism in particular articulated the place of individual liberty in an otherwise utilitarian framework Baron de Montesquieu analyzed protection of the people by a balance of powers in the divisions of a state John Rawls revitalized the study of normative political philosophy in anglo-american universities with his 1971 book a theory of justice which uses a version of social contract theory to answer fundamental questions about justice and to criticize utilitarianism MOSI eponymous founder of the mohist school advocated a form of consequentialism Friedrich Nietzsche philosopher who became a powerful influence on a broad spectrum of 20th century political currents in Marxism anarchism fascism socialism libertarianism and conservatism his interpreters have debated the content of his political philosophy Robert Nozick criticized Rawls and argued for libertarianism by appeal to a hypothetical history of the state and of property Thomas Paine Enlightenment writer who defended liberal democracy the American Revolution and French Revolution in common sense and the rights of man Plato wrote a lengthy dialogue the Republic in which he laid out his political philosophy citizens should be divided into three categories one category of people are the rulers they should be philosophers according to Plato this idea is based on his theory of forms pierre-joseph Proudhon commonly considered the father of modern anarchism specifically mutualism ein R and founder of Objectivism and prime mover of the Objectivist and libertarian movements in mid 20th century America advocated a complete less a fair capitalism Rand held that the proper role of government was exclusively the protection of individual rights without economic interference the government was to be separated from economics the same way and for the same reasons it was separated from religion any governmental action not directed at the defense of individual rights would constitute the initial creation of force or threat of force and therefore a violation not only of Rights but also of the legitimate function of government Murray Rothbard the central theorist of anarcho-capitalism and an Austrian school economist jean-jacques rousseau analyzed the social contract as an expression of the general will and controversially argued in favor of absolute democracy where the people at large would act as sovereign Karl Schmitt German political theorist tied to the Nazis who developed the concepts of the friend enemy distinction and the state of exception though his most influential books were written in the 1920s he continued to write prolifically until his death in academic quasi exile in 1985 he heavily influenced 20th century political philosophy both within the frankfurt school and among others not all of whom are philosophers such as Jacques Derrida Hannah Arendt and Giorgio Agamben Adam Smith often said to have founded modern economics explained emergence of economic benefits from the self-interested behavior the invisible hand of artisans and traders while praising its efficiency Smith also expressed concern about the effects of industrial labour eg repetitive activity on workers his work on moral sentiment sought to explain social bonds which enhance economic activity Socrates widely considered the founder of Western political philosophy via his spoke an influence on Athenian contemporaries since Socrates never wrote anything much of what we know about him and his teachings comes his most famous student Plato Baruch Spinoza set forth the first analysis of rational egoism in which the rational interest of self is conformance with Pure Reason - Spinoza's thinking in a society in which each individual is guided by reason political authority would be superfluous max Stirner important thinker within anarchism and the main representative of the anarchist current known as individualist anarchism Leo Strauss famously rejected modernity mostly on the grounds of what he perceived to be modern political philosophies excessive self sufficiency of Reason and flawed philosophical grounds for moral and political normativity he argued instead we should return to pre-modern thinkers for answers to contemporary issues his philosophy was influential on the formation of neoconservative ISM and a number of his students later were members of the Bush administration henry david thoreau influential american thinker on such diverse later political positions and topics such as pacifism anarchism environmentalism and civil disobedience who influenced later important

CXdLeexIBD0 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CXdLeexIBD0 | Direct Variation as an nth Power-Part1 | so now let's go the class has started right now so good morning class good morning very good so we in the other class we started variation and we looked at the formula for direct variation which was y equal to k x where k is constant of proportionality so in this lesson we are going to look at another aspect of direct valuation but this time around it is going to be n power so now here it goes so we can say that y is directly proportional to the square directly let me write it down y is directly proportional [Music] to the square of x to the square of x or you can say y varies directly as x squared so why that is s squared so what that means yes it's the same thing as saying direct variation so basically you are saying that y is directly proportional to [Music] x squared x squared okay now for you to remove this kind of proportionality you have to introduce constant of um proportionality so you can say that y is equal to k x squared where k is a constant so now this formula if you want to compare it to a physical quantity it is similar to area equal to what's the formula for area of a section area of a circle see so this is a physical quantity pi is a number radius is a variable just like this okay so so now if they want us to create a um a mathematical model that describes this in other words we have to do the same thing that we did the other side so now let's just make up some numbers if if y is fy is what give me a number 20 and x is what okay let's just use 10 and x equal to 10 so create create um math model that relax um y and x they can say y and x they can also say x and y okay now in that case so here's our solution so in that case we need to write our expression first which is um y is proportional to x squared which is the same thing as saying y is equal to k x squared now if if y is 20 all we got to do is substitute the value of y to be 20. so we have 20 is equal to k x is time right 10 squared so what is 10 squared 100 so this is a k multiplied by 100 equal to 20. so what's the value of k what's the value of k 2 over 10 which is equal to 1 over 5. is that correct so if we do 20 over 20 no 20 over 100 we're dividing both sides by 100 is equal to k multiplied by 100 over 100 so this crosses | Ukaegbu | UC80LwVrlbXKjxMWosW9huag | 2022-06-05 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 484 | 2,238 |

I'm gonna be you know the thing I think the ice cream yeah the ice cream Jesus should have dressed up for that podcast I wouldn't be able to smoke a [ __ ] cigar you can smoke through it yeah it's not really the most uh fire retardant material so I want to talk about something the downfall is going to be relatively controversial um here's the deal uh as the nation knows that there is a shortage of law enforcement and there's many reasons too caused this Nationwide shortage and yes the citizens are part of it uh the you know the [ __ ] out there that constantly want to just start [ __ ] with law enforcement just to get a rise out of them uh the lack of accountability with people and also some of the agencies out there some of the Departments uh they're higher ups or from what I've been hearing are not the best to deal with right now such as I'm not going to disclose any details that might lead to who or what or where I'm talking about out of the respect and protection of these individuals apparently there's a pretty large agency in our area that is severely short-handed almost thousands pretty much every agency where we are at yeah is short-handed they are but this one I'm talking about they're extremely short-handed extra shorthand yes and you think that being short-handed and I'm not saying that they need to drop hiring standards I'm not saying you know that they need to start hiring [ __ ] but turning people away over small minute [ __ ] and that same person or applicant turns around gets hard on with another agency that pays twice as much and is twice as hard to get on with normally there's something wrong with your agency yep and when you're putting officers on administrative leave over stupid policy violations they get no one hurt and cost the department zero dollars you're shooting yourself in the foot quit causing the shortage in law enforcement I'm done they know what they're doing they're paid to do it we don't want to get all conspiracy no um my brain's over but yes they are immensely contributing to the downfall of society and um the America that so many people died and fought for is fading away yeah slowly becoming nothing but but it's up to you change it yes we were in enacting a militia you know we should I know that joke you made about our door getting kicked in yeah it has definitely getting kicked in now all they're gonna find is like cat hair cat hair yeah with me and a bunch of dog hair with you on here with me and then uh legal firearms legal firearms yes and then uh they're also going to uh want some beer lots of beer lots of cigars beer and two big ass dogs everything they touch they'll smell like ash and little do they know since due to my full-time job I have taken fiberglass insulation and embedded it into the walls of my casa so if they touch the wall of my casa the fiberglass is going to get stuck and their skin it's going to itching I'm not going to do anything bad just gonna itch yeah [ __ ] that place never going there again and then uh they're gonna open a door and then when I have a bunch of itching powder like Spencer's used to sell it's going to dump down on top of them get inside their uniform itching powder yeah yeah you pour it on someone's head gotta get some of that we could have like a big box of it on the road when someone cuts you off just like dump that [ __ ] it goes up in their air vents and you see them in the car and then they're gonna open a door I'm gonna have a stink bomb it's Brave it's gonna drop and hit the floor and detonate and it's going to release a smell of rotten egg and oh [ __ ] a certain drawer and when you open it riddles the stink bombs Miss at you it's a nice little mist and you're like what the [ __ ] was that and it suddenly smell ass I started vomiting all over the place to start vomiting in their baklavas and starts running down their units they weren't probably slipping it slipping at the face playing they'd probably trash your place after I could only expect them oh man you have any issues there no I'm just admiring the beautiful construction it is a delicious soup I'll tell you what here's what I want to do oh I forgot to tell you uh we have something coming in the mail for cigars of Valor from a officer that took us up on our deal for the uh you send us a patch we send you some cigars oh someone did that he sent us a patch and a challenge going no sure it'll be here I think tomorrow I want to see it it's going to be uh from Florida nice Florida Highway Patrol wow yep so is that an alligator on it uh do you think I have an alligator or a man from Florida yeah I'm one of those dudes everyone knows everyone has that like static image in their mind of a man from Florida yeah some uh some guy's been sitting in the sun and it's about his oranges his pumpkin pretty much as a beer belly well yes 100 that's cool I I really like that we um have acquired a collection of challenge coins yes we have when we get a storefront they will be on display up there this is still [ __ ] raining outside yeah and everyone's driving either like it never rained before and they have actual rain tires on or that they've never actually driven in the rain ever in their lives and they're freezing yeah and they think that the faster they drive in it the more it actually um slowly kills him yeah yeah it's disgusting because uh I was going down the highway earlier it was raining and you know we grew up here we were traveling in the rain plenty of times we know how to drive in it and there's people driving on the highway doing 40 miles now rain everywhere apparently not maybe not California yeah uh because they're in a [ __ ] desert but it's probably why they uh they're doing like 40 miles an hour down the highway and I'm flying around people doing the 60s 65 and you know people looking and I think that's a [ __ ] psychopath which I I'm not doubting that but that Lamborghini LP 650 drives good in the rain doesn't it sure does all-wheel drive is LP real wheelchair I think there is always I know the the vanilla Aventador events doors all-wheel drive which one is rear-wheel drive is it the lp I think the lp is a all-wheel it's a ventador LP 650 man I bought a car around in a [ __ ] knowledge yeah exactly I traded so it came time to put on tires put tires on my other Lamborghini so um and I I traded it in for a new one so I don't have to put tires on it yeah so he traded up actually traded down from the original what is that the 1998 Dodge Ram yeah yeah Dodge Ram panel van um some guy absolutely loved it and traded a Lamborghini important yeah about a uh it was flat black has a little bad thing has a titanium some sort of backup for Market titanium exhaust on it and uh I just [ __ ] man and now I'm probably gonna sell it because I have my eyes set on an airplane I'm gonna probably buy me a uh the Wright brothers airplane what [Laughter] my girl's thinking like oh I've never heard of that brand before the Wright brothers Boeing 747 dude you know what I'm talking about right that old first airplane or the piece of [ __ ] that flew like 10 feet off toothpicks yeah no I'm have I'm thinking about buying me a Gulfstream G5 and uh and and of course so get in the video game I'm talking about buying this because there's no way I can afford a 65 million dollar airplane one day yeah maybe one day yeah when cigars of Valor establishes out into a security Force private security Private Investigations we will find people that you want found and bring them to you yes lawfully yeah he said it I said yeah I just I agree so here's the deal um I'm gonna ask you I'm going to tell you that I'm going to make you um chug of beer what what are you drinking I saw it don't plug it I'm not it is a dandelion Ginger like tea okay it sounds disgusting and it not really that great but like yeah no sugar but dandelion is really good for anxiety um yeah yeah I didn't know that and what was that tea caramel caramel kombucha no caramel I don't know I don't [ __ ] know anyways so that stuff's really good for anxiety and obviously gender real Ginger tastes really good by itself and having that Nat with it is actually really nice nice it's not bad it doesn't taste very good I might try it one day I don't know there's no sugar in it I gotta add Sprouts but it's like uh it's it's good so it's good for you um so let's get started here let's get started what we what's the topic of discussion for today well topic of discussion today [Applause] now we're trying different things I didn't come up with anything we're trying different things to see where you're very convincing with that about you okay yeah to see where we go um and how far we should go on certain topics and agendas because there's only so many like funny police things that you can talk about yeah um other than having people on that can talk about real stories that are funny hint we come on the podcast you'll get a free Cigar I have a story for you that was shared with me what by an officer that we are both acquainted with okay so when are they go to a disturbance call and uh they show up up front and the storm door is open the glass storm doors open it's closed but the actual front door is open so you can see inside the house yes you can hear it clearly and they show up and they hear screaming saying I'm gonna [ __ ] kill you you son of a [ __ ] [ __ ] you and they hear a bunch of blood curdling screeching sounds familiar right and uh I don't know what that means but yeah you do and um all right and lawyer um so this officer and another officer they uh knock on the door to make contact and see what the [ __ ] going on kicking the door fired shot everyone no no not yet not yet and uh they hear coming I'm coming and so they're like okay absolutely wait this screaming continues like they more [ __ ] you you piece of [ __ ] here's 17 ways you should go kill yourself you know [ __ ] you 17. yeah don't worry about that wow and I was over each other it's like a Google article no they were screaming like blood curdling screeching and they knock again and you hear uh I'm coming damn it and uh you know another several minutes goes by and the streaming continues and they hear a bunch of Slammy inside so at that point that's excellent circumstance you hear a bunch of screaming like I'm gonna [ __ ] kill you you hear a bunch of commotion at that point you can justify that someone's being harmed in there it's excellent circumstance so officer that is on a certain team of a certain agency that does badass [ __ ] kicks the storm door and shatters it like blows it the [ __ ] in like he kicks it and disintegrates goes inside the house and the guy's like I'm calling I said damn it no this is what you see coming around the corner an old 80 year old guy on a cane coming around the corner and going God damn it I just replaced that door and turns out it was his grandkids upstairs playing Call of Duty I'm gonna take that [ __ ] I'm gonna take that shotgun go outside for a minute I thought that was a pretty good story it's pretty good I always wondered about that like playing video games really loud or something and having the speakers up super loud like having people come over and yeah yeah I think you're shooting to someone inside or something tell me that so what happened with the door uh usually agencies will replacement replace it cities will that sucks [Music] it happens just uh make the DA's pay for it another one's making all the money yeah oh I shouldn't have said that that's all right definitely gotta get ready now it needs to be saved Sade it needs to be said I mean Wi-Fi like you hear so many officers here they're like oh yeah the district attorney just doesn't prosecute or something yeah so it's like they just let them go and then you're just like hmm that's weird that that's happening here and then you hear it in like 30 other states it's happening you know it's everywhere and it's like who are these who are these people talking to why would all of them have the same decision but I guess we're [ __ ] we'll never figure that out [Music] um there's several theories I mean it's getting to a point where for one I won't get politics involved but we're on the edge of a possible nuclear war to that point and and you know uh governments like to incite fear in the public you know and do a bunch of [ __ ] they do this all the time but on a real note you know you can have the surface stuff that you hear in conspiracies and then you can have the service level things that are the real things where you have to actually kind of wonder if nuclear war could happen you know everyone's thinking about that and so but you know it's it's like I don't I don't understand how I'm not going to say this Administration or anything but how why things can't be negotiated properly you know there's so many weird things going on uh with the economy with politics with everything yeah everything is such in such a state of disarray right now but the only thing we can do is come back from it I always try you would think that we would be advancing in society because Society isn't is degrading yeah you know you can see it with like the people and in public like nobody's the same anymore it's like um I would say that like the peak that we had in society with people caring about their neighbors and [ __ ] was is long gone yeah that's why we were the last time that ever happened was the day after 9 11. as the last time anybody was ever just good to their neighbor now it's step on each other it's crabs in a bucket it's who can step on each other and get the furthest up before falling and how what can I [ __ ] about today what is my neighbor doing today that I can call the HOA on oh yeah like what what can they do to gain a footing while hurting their neighbor you know like yeah it's ridiculous and it's like [ __ ] that doesn't even matter like most people live a better life and Robin said most people but a lot of people live a bitter life and and really if you just concentrated and focused on being in a good mood and happy and trying and getting rid of those people that are shitty to you he would live such a better life and you wouldn't care about if your neighbor has their car parked in the driveway longer than two weeks you know like you wouldn't give a [ __ ] about anything like that because it doesn't matter but Society is super selfish extremely everyone is seems like uh the give a ship factor is gone it's all about me me me me me well if you notice the cigar Community is really like one of the very few communities that are like you go there and you talk to everyone fairly it doesn't even matter about politics there it's like yeah you can sit with anyone and talk and have a good conversation absolutely that's uh that's what I love about the cigar Community like I said is uh just the the camaraderie and it doesn't matter what religion you are what political views you have it doesn't matter what this code of your skin or what it doesn't matter any nothing matters yeah it's not we're able to sit down smoke a cigar and hang out and agree on [ __ ] yes it does not matter yeah and I'm sure there's times where people over step [ __ ] but you know like everyone is go to like in Fuego whatever when there's fair and talks have a good time you know like everyone enjoys each other's company rather than worrying about what this person can do for them you know it's not it's kind of sound it really is but but let's switch to a positive note positive topic positive what do you got so we have an event coming up we've been talking about it for the past several episodes November 9th El Dorado finds cigars in Rockwall aren't we doing something for Christmas yes we are we were invited requested yes requested requested by the manager of the El Dorado McKinney location to do their Christmas party December 10th and McKinney and McKinney gosh it's gonna be like a a solid block of smoke it knows there's no back door to that place okay there's no so because I I just remember like when I was there I was like damn you know like huh yeah that thing and it's sealed perfectly yeah but yeah so it's a neat store if you've never been to El Dorado like a hole in the wall and strip center cigar shop but the environment there the energy level is up here yeah it's fun amazing it's a good store yeah and uh what was it before Colorado find cigars it's always been that okay because I used to go there years

it uh to get all the [ __ ] off of it put shedding on it yeah my lips just have a little [ __ ] that came out of them [Music] um [Music] okay what's up the idiots of society there's two of them in here yes but there is far worse than us in society yes there are the Nissan Altima foreign go the wrong way on 66. of course you did and of course and then they stopped they could have just like went a little bit further and then went onto the road but they stopped and then reversed all the [ __ ] way back down to where they pulled out went back up and then went out and went around again it was the most [ __ ] [ __ ] ever like I was just sitting there and I was like it had to be like the lower version of the Nissan Altima I don't even know anymore you see idiots every day I see it in hourly just when I get home every evening playing Grand Theft Auto for approximately two and a half hours for people like when you play Grand Theft Auto you know 10 years ago almost 10 years ago when GTA 5 came out believe it or not came out in 2015. oh did it really I guess three years from now but all right I thought it was 2013. did it come out in 2013. I'll give you a different console oh for PC it came out in 2015. oh yeah this consoles that's disgusting anyways all right that game is now almost 10 years old and I remember playing and I was like man the people in this game drive like [ __ ] you know like I used to think like now the people on Grand Theft Auto the the NPCs drive better than the people on the road maybe it's because the people on the road are NPCs of our lives so let's send him to their Bots their robots there you go that is the most idiotic thing I've ever heard in my life true it's becoming true let me tell you what else is true how well I love about Texas is we'll go half a year without a single drop of rain pretty much done that we did and then it gives us all the rain that we were screwed out of over the past year yeah and on top of that I guarantee you there's someone that just bought a motorcycle yesterday oh most likely that's what happened they bought a motorcycle yesterday evening and they're like oh yeah I'm gonna go ride and then rains for three weeks just had that time I bought that R6 it rained for a solid a six year long [ __ ] drought like not a drop of rain the Lakes were almost dried up I go off and buy a crotch rocket 2004 R6 was that it yeah okay I bought a Yamaha R6 the day after I bought it a drop in it and it rained it rained for three [ __ ] weeks [ __ ] day the entire month of May yeah it was like three or four weeks that it rained solid and then so I was sitting there they got to a point where we just kind of forgot you know like I had a bike he had one we were going to ride together just kind of forgot they even owned a motorcycle yeah so if you wanted to go ride a bike and that's when it rained if we wanted to get on the boat that's when it got windy as [ __ ] remember that time we went to Red River and completely beautiful night we walk outside in this pouring ass down right and not even like the small drops it's like literally raining like 12 ounce water drops each time I remember that damn and we had to ride our bikes back in that so let me tell you something [ __ ] what I probably won't get a motorcycle maybe a cruiser one day honestly I'm set on the fine deal man I could I'll be happy with that because see what happens with the motorcycle you're allowing idiots to decide your fate that's driving in general but all right well I mean you're safer in a car motorcycle like can easily easily mess you up yeah that's why I got away from bikes I got into a hobby that most likely if you mess up you're gonna die well you're less likely to mess up yeah yeah but if you do you're gonna die did you see that uh that video on the plane in Madison which one uh the one where the guy broke down the report oh the beach of the king there yeah yeah I didn't even know that but that that guy who was just like he wouldn't let if there was passengers he wouldn't let uh the co-pilot do anything and the idiot like didn't believe in a checklist well that's and he didn't even he didn't even do a checklist and so they said that they actually when they tested that aircraft nothing was wrong with it the it was the fact that he didn't tighten the uh things that keep the throttle stiff there's like a little thing you tighten yeah but they also teach you to keep your hands on the throttle when you're well that was the thing is he did he didn't do that he had both hands on the throttle and he was pulling up and the throttle was loose and it rolled back on one of the engines and see what happened was he turned and then the airplane just stalled out and then it flipped like that if he would have followed a [ __ ] check yeah or his co-pilot called it out his co-pilot was like Hey the throttle's down on the other engine like you're losing power on the other engine and they would have throttled up you know but he wouldn't let the co-pilot touch anything no [ __ ] that he would have I would have been fired after that was how to grab that was like 70 or something if I wasn't that coppo out of grab that throttle and gone no we're not doing that but there's a dip when you let your ego put other people's lives in danger you're a [ __ ] idiot I don't know if anyone heard that probably does you see the Nissan no smoking yep no smoking good good [ __ ] smokers foreign so what is this shotgun here oh it's a Mossberg shock wave beautiful piece of equipment it's clear internet yeah well you should have checked it yep it's a fun gun covered in dog hair pulling up the camera and pull the trigger at the end I'll put that explosion at the end no I'm not gonna do that oh man it's awesome power foreign arm shot that I had one a while back and it's not too terrible depending on the light you got in there but it's a fun gun to shoot I like it did you see the guy that was shooting some gun damn it God damn turn the [ __ ] Sun back on my skin my pale skin all right we're good sorry I'm an idiot such a fantastic isn't it delicious God damn yeah we need to light up the Twitter again because there is oh not again but we need to get the Twitter going okay I'll start a [ __ ] twatter and I'll get on there I mean we have a Twitter our heart will use the scars of Valor and just talk [ __ ] to people what do you like I can't say it off camera um it's a deal let me go to the gun range every [ __ ] taxes gun range let me shoot my short barrel AR yeah I need to go shoot this thing the short barreled AR-15 is a fantastic firearm honestly I've owned a few AR-15s and that thing is badass yeah they're wild like deafening loud just way more controllable like it's lightweight it's maneuverable it's just like what I mean it's just it's easy to fire it's just it's mobile I can see how it'd be useful I think it's easier to shoot to be honest oh yeah I could see them see that's easier um well you have any more police stuff to talk about um yeah I got a I got a thing here it's in regards to patrol cars anyone that was in law enforcement has been law enforcement in the past 10 years they unfortunately have witnessed oh [ __ ] it's been more than 10 years but what the killing off the Crown Vic uh was that whenever people would rear-end them in the gas tank would you suppose they found out that was another issue uh that wasn't related to the car how is that not related to the car uh from what I was reading it was something about because it would keep it officers were keeping Jack like a four Jack in the back of the car and instead of placing it horizontal and they get rear-ended and shove that Jack into the gas tank and puncture the gas tank so that's why whenever you pop a trunk well maybe you shouldn't have the [ __ ] gas tank behind the rear seat I'm just saying that's what was happening what's on the Lexus SC once the gas tank's in the trunk yeah it's like Fireball put it under the damn car like plenty of room oh tons of room under there but the Crown Vic it was a fantastic car mainly because it was a frame on car had a V8 it was until they keep the nice leather seats in no they did not um it was just a good car you could had good ground clearance he could pop curbs with it drive through drive across the medians [ __ ] you can't even [ __ ] do with modern patrol cars and it's just I kind of like the SUVs I'm going to start a petition to bring the crown bit back they bring back the old like 1998 I don't care Crown deck they're all back in the city I mean that that was a hell of a car if they would just have kept that car and dropped a modern drivetrain want the coyote 50 into it that would be a hell of a problem every coffee frying tires on the way up just yeah that's what I'm saying do that okay it's fun wow yeah don't get me wrong the charger was a fun car to drive but it was unreliable as [ __ ] charges piece of [ __ ] there's still a [ __ ] hard drive I only drove a charger one time my patrol car was a four-wheel drive F-150 it's better than charger which was dope I like that old 2014 F-150 you have yeah that was a pretty badass truck you know the five liter in it yeah but every cop should get a diesel oh wait the carbon emissions yeah right don't want to piss off anyone so the new Tahoes from what I was told the brand new Tahoe patrol car has this feature in it I haven't experienced it that if you take off your seat belt cut in your below a certain speed like crawling speed I think it's like I can't remember what the speed is and you open the door with your seatbelt off it stops the car what it stops the [ __ ] car like if you're below a certain speed I think it's like blow running speed or something like that and you have your seat belt off you can throw open the car door it stops on the new cars on the new Tahoes that's kind of cool in a way but I feel control yeah um the certain officer that has told me about this feature he said he found out the hard way that does that because uh it's not under it's not a gradual stop either it's a pretty hard stop and he said he said you take off his seatbelt and threw the door open and throws the car in park and throws him into the steering wheel and the door here I mean do they not expect like the officer to not wear a seat belt you know he's coming up on something and he's watching if he needs to drive after someone do they not think that through but like you know maybe he wants to pop his belt off and then get that thing where it stops and runs out real quick and he doesn't have to stop put it in park and then take the seat belt off and yeah they were trying to make it easier for him because it's going to put itself in part for you at a slow speed basically stops the car I would rather just have a button that it's like all right boom and then you get out they do have a button and it slows down then you tell us have a button shift in them no I meant like a park button that like if you had an emergency kind of slow the car down and stop yeah I think that'd be dope they could also have some sort of automation that would Trail the officer if he was in a Pursuit you just pop it and then run out I don't know about you but I don't want a three-ton vehicle following me well it Tesla drives itself yeah look at all the different videos and stories about that so they could have it where the car Trails the cop and then he can like Snap his finger and do a backflip and then what will happen did you ever see the show um what was that show some car Adult Swim so the Ventura Brothers never saw that so he's like standing in the middle of the road in a car his car is coming to run him over and he like puts his hand out like this and then he put he puts his hand out and the car hits him he blows through the window and crushes the guy and then he's still driving the car I'll have to show you the video it's so funny our show is hilarious like I can't believe I never watched it foreign again law enforcement anyone that watches this we would love to have you on here we'll keep you confidential as far as what department you work for blank your voice out where it's you know pixelize your face too yeah or some stupid asses guys if you want I ain't doing all that it's a lot of

5IQv6WyseHo | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5IQv6WyseHo | Finally Starting Hollow Knight!!!! | yo starting off the week with this Banger Hollow night a game that I've been trying to play for so long and just have never gotten around to I know I know holl night fans don't prosecute me I have nothing against the game I've just been playing a bunch of other games and deciding to put this one off too many times but don't worry I'm starting it now right now not going to waste any time [Music] [Applause] that is loud after I already turned down the volume I didn't turn it down that much though I am really excited to play this [Music] game and here we are [Music] would you look at that it's not like I've seen little bits of gameplay on this or anything no not at all completely never seen anything ever oh [ __ ] all right I suck I get it okay have to hold it down to jump higher this the way hold B to collect Souls that's how I heal now hold on is there anything down here this guy all right hey but now genuinely I'm excited to be playing this finally I've known of this game for so long been wanting to play it for so long I don't know I just never decided to finally start it it was a part of me that was holding it off cuz I wanted to record it obviously which might have slowed me down from playing it sooner cuz if I wasn't planning on recording it I probably would have played it by now what is that all those are extra okay extra hearts look at us chilling whacking everything and I fell can I reach that I want that though all right well I already know how this game goes though there's going to be a lot of stuff we can't do yet we'll just have to unlock through playing the game lots of different paths I know we can get like a jump Dash I don't know if it's a double jump or just like a I don't remember can I I can like fling myself off of that that's cool quack all right what do we have here Hollow nest the kingdom of hollow Nest don't mind if I break in oh all right I mean it's okay there was nowhere else to go I mean just look at this how would you not be interested in this just by the art look at it well don't forget about the music too H can I talk to you oh there traveler I'm afraid there's only me left to offer welcome our Town's falling quiet you see the other residents they've all disappeared headed down that well one by one into the caverns below used to be there was a great Kingdom beneath your beneath our town it's long fell a ruin yet it still draws folks into its depths wealth Glory Enlightenment that Darkness seems to promise all things I'm sure you too seek your dreams down there but watch out it's a sickly air that fills the place creatures turn mad and travelers are robbed of their memories perhaps dreams aren't such great things after all that's just sad we'll rest well that gets rid of those hearts I probably would have rather not rested if I had known that we go in here will be open soon okay okay okay I thought I would have had to jump over the ledge or something but nope we're falling straight in all right I have a whoops I don't have a map yet I don't think that place did sa for your mapping needs I'm assuming just going in blind hey hey sorry buddy oh where did you come from well guess we're going left uh let's that's friendly isn't it I'm already getting good at the combat you already know how it is oh look at that oh just falling there are so many ways to go I'm already I'm already going to be overwhelmed with where I'm meant to go jeez I just keep falling how far down can I go and there's a hole here just feel like that's not a good idea I'm being honest I should probably heal and then kill more I'm already making rookie mistakes killing things while I'm full what am I doing I'm just going to go back this way uh hi there goodbye okay I'm glad I can hit more than one enemy thought that guy was alive I mean he looks dead but I don't know can't be trusted no buddy I want to help you but I can't reach you oh I'll be back friend I don't know what you do but oh you jump all right well you're dead hi there can I hit him I can okay that's not bad got to get every coin or whatever these so I got to break everything in my path of course I'm just wandering with no like purpose and I know you're kind of meant to just I know you're kind of meant to do that but I also feel like I should be paying attention just a little bit so I know how to get back I don't know where I am and it seemingly just keeps going hi there oh you're just a boss aren't you oh okay nice little bit of lag there we love that can you chill out for a second oh oh [ __ ] I wish I had a dash of some sort but I mean he doesn't seem too difficult he only got the two moves here let's go all right first boss down or mini boss probably a mini [Music] boss I mean yeah the movement just in the combat for how simple it is feels way too clean and good to play kind of just walking back with no purpose I didn't really unlock anything from defeating that person let's go in here hope this isn't a boss hello hello there how delightful to meet another traveler on these forgotten roads you're a short one hey you have a strong look about you I'm quarrel one letter away from squirrel maybe you're trying to tell us that he's a nut job I have something of an obsession with Uncharted places and nuts this ancient Kingdom holds many fascinating Mysteries and one of the most intriguing of them is standing right before us a great Stone egg lying in the corpse of an ancient Kingdom and this egg is it warm it certainly gives off gives off a unique air can it be opened there are strange marks all over it I do so love a mystery and who knows what other Marvels lie even deeper below us imagine I just broke it we'll come back when we have something to do with egg it look like alien faces I like his MK H okay let's just keep fighting our way through I can what's up here oh this is just back out okay I had a feeling I was close by but didn't think I was right there anything here we need a key don't we stone door with a simple lock all right we just need a simple key simple is that time to explore more okay enemies do not stay dead they reset which is fine oh hey what's up [Music] buddy oh appreciated all right so I'm assuming this is how many little guys there are look he's so happy we're going to go this way boom boom oh hi there woo okay I don't like that you have projectile I'm assuming those little ones can hurt me too this is not good feel like I need a dash of some sort nope the little ones do not that's good to know but I definitely need something for you cuz he's going to just keep doing that I'll break him eventually you can't hold off forever all right we'll come back you may have gotten me this time but next time won't be the same all right let's go oh okay Excuse excuse me hi buddy all right already missing no shot I just walked off doesn't seem like they hard Target you oh that's filling up my oh well you know what I don't need it anyway so I'm going to go ahead and say that I can't do this yet think at least oh [ __ ] it's okay though we're making progress narrowing down which way we need to go I don't want to go down yet there's one way up here wait did I already go this way I believe I have yeah cuz we tried to get him I can't remember if there were other paths as well feel like there were but I also feel like I'm starting to learn where I am or at least figure out my way around this place find out oh [ __ ] okay uh let's see I think we didn't go down last time oh isn't that lovely all right you know we know where we need to why do I keep falling for that why does it keep resetting actually all right all right you got me going down hello he busy at work ah hello there I'm down to explore these beautiful old runes don't mind me I have a fondness for exploring myself getting lost and finding your way is a pleasure like no other we're exquisitely lucky you and I I'm a cartographer by trade and I'm working on mapping this area right now would you like to buy a copy of my work so far of course map can be a useful thing but it alone won't show you where you are you've not the head for directions I suggest purchasing a compass from my wife is Zelda she's just now opening our new map shop in dirt mouth selling all sorts of useful things to wanders like yourself she'll even sell some of my old maps from time to time I pop back to see her whenever I finish mapping an area she's always so excited to see me isn't that lovely I'm assuming that means when I go back up the shop will be open let's hit the map here we go where are we oh okay I see I see his face here there's a little pocket on the left I I cannot hurt you isn't that just swell oh oh no I'm I'm off the map Off the Grid no clue where I'm going now just listen I I'm throwing on purpose I promise o don't like that sound it's a why didn't I jump why didn't I heal either okay there's some things that I still got to get used to hello you are free I got to stop tapping it like I know a lot of games do that where you oh I am truly a genius but no there's a lot of games where you can just tap it and you'll still jump a certain height now in this if you tap it you barely jump and if you hold it you jump high so I do got to get used to that cuz look you can you can barely jump it's my lucky day oh a secret for more I am just Rich right now ah should have just gone through the gate while I had the chance okay I see hey buddy stop that another one two more o I do not have health right now because of you okay unfortunate oh my goodness I've already died and reawakened at a bench let's hit the compass papada oh wow wait no I lose all of my stuff oh I didn't even notice I have nothing oh that is unfortunate all right back down let's see there are dots as if I can get that back I'm assuming I can get it back or at least some of it back cuz I had a lot all right now wait hold on or Le these back oh what is that oh [ __ ] oh it's it's it's an evil okay well I got my stuff back at least did not realize I had to attack it come stop running away of course I swing too early all right heal before the next two what how did I not reach the platform and what just hit me there be it okay good I'm not good at fighting those things yet um there's boss in the middle here oh is this going to lead to the boss or is this oh beautiful and a bench a resting point I like that a lot why are you back okay good don't have to do it again can I make it up there don't think so oh you're quick oh this really does look like a cave entrance doesn't not gu it's not all right I've been bambooz uh now how do I get out I don't oh okay we are where are we that sign doesn't quite give me the information that I need this is dangerous this is all dangerous I don't like this oh back off oh we don't need that yet kind of want to fight another boss but I do also want to up you know we just fight it I guess okay already getting many hits off on him he was unprepared prepared okay I should have seen it going oh this music is great oh why did I kill him so quickly I'm going to have to go back and listen to that Boss music that was it was just getting good oh whoa whoa whoa we not done yet okay well that was just rude guess we go in hello little guyle Yoda Oro you o you wield your nail like a club how much deeper do we have to go oh he's got what who is he speaking to I see this Old Village what a strange dream to have led me down here if you hadn't found me I don't think I would have ever woken I'm sly usually I live an uneventful life up in dirt mouth the air in these ruins doesn't agree with me so i' best be getting back if you return above come and see me I'm probably the friendliest face left there and I can thank you properly for your good deed all right all right um there's a way back up ah I mean I'm close I want to know what he's giggling about up here hey what's so funny guess we come back another time we do have a new dude plus we have we have coin should go buy a compass or something um did I go here no oh door with an open slot all right then guess I'll have to come back at another time haven't already said that a few times all right you have a shield oh oh he learned how to block above too bad I'm too quick but they're [Music] adapting Parry oh that's good to know you can Parry them okay this game just keeps getting better and better oh okay this is that cage yep yep they call me the smart guy I don't I don't like this I'm hearing wild is that a horse that's actually terrifying just because I can't see it we're going to come back when we have something all right where are we you're right we need the compass excuse me we have to come back and try and find that boss I'm assuming that's a boss or just another friendly guy right bada be a little more enthusiastic all right highly recommended yeah I'm going to get it we're not even going to question it ooh okay so this can update the map we'll we'll go ahead and grab that as well I want to see what the other guy has first ah hello I knew we'd meet again how do you like my cozy little store I've made myself pretty comfortable here selling old trinkets to Travelers like yourself you're planning a trip below I have several items that may improve your chance to surviv chill calm down ah a simple key 950 okay that'll be a while more time to recover after taking damage that sounds nice this one's expensive oh it's a light okay I see wonder if we want this first maybe I don't know we'll find use for it oh wait never mind okay I see oh what a turn my shopkeeps come home just wandered back in I'd hoped for Grand Tales of his time below but he seems to remember almost nothing maybe it was all too much for him if you're interested in his Wares watch out he drives a hard bargain that one no competition that's the problem it's bad for the market not that he's complaining to equip a charm open the charms menu while res in at a bench oh there we go aha there we are perfect I wonder if we can unlock more Charm slots like equipable slots I would assume so with how many it looked like there were all right oh and it shows off which areas you've been through so we haven't been to the boss but it does look like it's behind a closed door when you're just exploring in these easier areas I should say I'm sure it's going to get worse later on but like right now this is nice this is relaxing peaceful even if I am just fighting enemies left and right this is nice oh can I make that nope so somehow we have yet to go here we're in a mine someone is mining away down there um I'll talk to them [Music] first [Music] I love the voices oh bury my mother pale and slight bury my father with his eyes shut tight bury my sisters 2 by two and then when you're done let's bury me too you know that one no I don't can't say I do it's one of my favorites we can sing something else if you like yes please you start singing and I'll join in I bet you have a beautiful singing voice I do not so what are you down here for you came to get wealthy just look around you these mins are bursting with riches there's plenty for everyone just grab a pick and join in can I I don't have a pick oh don't need one but I'm not picking up any of that so I'm just going to move on no okay so another one of these do I okay I thought that would do something special nope how do I use that quill that I got oh there are two slots I didn't even notice um been resting at a bench the coil can be used to update okay so it's after I rest well I have a feeling this is going to break just a slight suspicion oh actually all right nothing's happening guess we need something else now let's try this way we didn't go all the way to the right here oh that's why I guess only thing left is to try and I don't know oh it's not a lock door oh we're in oh hello there what if I just we're too sneaky oh okay having these two as a combo is dangerous it's all right we'll come back and face that boss in a minute cuz I'm worried there's a boss in here aha there he is let's heal up first woo okay did not jump high enough he's running away oh okay that one does not yep yep yep learning him already oh he was not as strong as I thought he'd be oh [ __ ] he's not done oh [ __ ] having no Dodge is terrifying for for this chill calm down calm down I didn't mean it like that I didn't I didn't think you were weak or anything it was just a joke it was just a joke can I heal nope I don't have a dash this is this is unfortunate oh my gosh please let me heal okay oh he's too close he's too close okay I have a feeling this is going to be three phase and I don't have enough feeling for this actually maybe I do can I break those nope unfortunate come on just do the slam there we go oo [Music] scary [Music] oh let's go okay well you're not done W oh he is you good we didn't finish our fight um guess I have to go down there that was a cool fight pretty difficult also I must slay you I thought I could speak to him I'm sorry imagine that was face to oh defeat the false Knight City Crest okay that was a really cool boss fight actually I really enjoyed that what is I'm rich who the [ __ ] hey hey you wait who are where are you where you all right well guess you get away for now I never even fought the mini boss earlier that I said I'd get back to Let's heal before we walk into something dangerous um maybe it's not so that is a shortcut back to there cool uh-huh this this doesn't look promising lots of dead things around have we already been here no we have not hello we're going to rest map updated okay cool um it didn't really get the mines to the right so I'm not really sure how that works but oh well what was that creeping out of the darkness my you're looking Grim a strange empty face and a wicked looking weapon something important has drawn you down into Hollow Ness cours but I won't ask what perhaps the reason you found me is because you need my help say no more friend I'm going to give you a gift a nasty little spell in my own creation it's just perfect for a little one like you I'm okay with this I think oo what have we unlocked we die Beneful Spirit aha tap b to unleash the spirit so we have arranged attack why are we over here what' you do to me you've awoken At Last I apologize perhaps I should have warned you about the power of that spell I was watching over you as you slept it seemed to have slipped away myself Oho what do you mean it looks like you locked me in a cage now we're awake I was wondering whether you would do me a small favor not as repayment for my gift of course simply because we're now friends okay I see you see a ho great Beast has made its home in the heart of this Temple such disrespect I would be quite grateful if you were to venture deeper in and slay it for me it's a Hardy creature but with your new power you're more than a match for it good luck with this small favor my friend you're awful well you know what all right I wanted to fight bosses anyway well that goes out fast okay for some reason in my mind I thought it would have had to charge up that is nice nope wow we love we love this don't I hate that it knocks me back I should just I mean I should see it coming yet I don't let we hold me to you okay we just have to remember that so we don't accidentally press something we didn't need to um there's a couple ways to go here this hi there but you know what we have what we need can I replenish off of that unfortunate um oh okay good this is a cool little boss fight I like the ideas should have seen what was up there o but this is probably better Soul catcher oh it was one of those okay I could have just fully replenished it hey I killed him we both know you wouldn't have made it through without that spell of mine you know what he's not wrong I hate to admit it and look the gate between us is opened oh convenient I'm sure you're going to move on farewell and have faith whatever you are seeking it will find you all right well you know what with big boss down and

dos8PQIPp_o | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dos8PQIPp_o | Riichi Mahjong Random Pulls 20190202 | I'm going to do some random polls for Japanese mahjong also known as ricci if you're new to this version look for links below the video to some tutorials also there's a link to a player reference with all the scoring elements in it so that you can follow along better yet practice yourself if you're new to my song or if you already know how to play and just want to build your skills consider subscribing to my channel that way you won't miss anything I have a window the round indicator here we're gonna alternate between east and south we will use the handy dandy seat randomizer roll dice just to see which seat we might be in for that particular random pull cuz anytime you're playing a game your seat wind or the wind of the round could have an impact on your potential yaku Easter on c4 that would be north first random pull one crack is Dora pair of red dragon that's called yaku hi that's worth $100 we have cheap potential in here here here and here's a pair one two three four five I would start by discarding the nine BAM see what happens nice having all these dragons but as singles with this shape not helpful we need to pair those up to pom them so I think I would play yakujá alone okay on to the next one south round [Music] five dot is Dora look at all those honors we have a nine and a nine one two three four five six seven oh seven towards 13 orphans I covet that hand 13 orphans is a yakuman one of each wind one of each dragon one of each one and nine I think what I would do here is probably all play outside hand that means we'd have to throw away a pair of fives oh shoot outside hand is where you have honors poems pair and then a one or a nine in each set we have a 2 4 a 1 2 3 a 9 and eight seven nine four seven eight nine cheese so I think I would need to sacrifice the five crack and play outside hand if you would do something different here let me know we would have one two three discards for outside hand if we played let's say half flesh we're in between cracks and bands with all those single honours I think outside hand sacrifice two five cracks if you would do something different here let me know I think probably I will start by discarding the five BAM and just take it pick by pick let's see what comes in if cracks come in we could leverage cracks and that pair and play ho neat sue which is one soup with winds and dragons but I think my primary focus would be outside hand I believe that's called what's it called tanta outside hand is called tanta it's exposed well and it's one hon obviously we would need to pair up it's south round that could bring score we're in north seat and these could potentially bring score if we pair up and pone I think that's what I would do here Shanta east round random pull three I rolled a 9 so we're gonna say this time we're dealer [Music] five crack is Dora okay I think what I would do here is pinfu see all those number tiles there's a chi right there there's pear potential chi isolated here's a potential chi isolated one two three four so we would definitely need more number tiles we need another chi in here I would throw these first play pinfu and Ricci here we do have a three crack if we can get a four crack we might be able to you do something with Dora I would definitely play pinfu and Ricci here south round I rolled a six that would be south south seat [Music] the progression of winds is east south west north eat soup with nuts so north is Dora pear pear even though we have pears there's Chi potential in here I think I would through South and red first here's a potential chi there's a pear or potential chi their potential chi pear or potential chi this is isolated I think what I would probably do here is throw these first and play pinfu and Ricci maybe even discard the nine because we have all simples all numbers 2 through 8 here I would hold that for a while discard these first pinfu reaching maybe all simples there's even a side wait for dot or seven dot even though we have that right there we'll see I would definitely try reach Ricci and pinfu here east ROM this time let's say we are ten that would be south so we're going to be in south seat random pool five nine crack is dora east round south see neither of those are going to bring score we have one two three pair I think I would start by discarding these wins even though we have pairs here we do have potential cheese one two two three eight nine so I think what I would do is discard these first play pinfu we even have a little bit of an opportunity here for Pierre straight one two three four five six seven eight nine we need a five dot or a six pack to really have more confidence in that potential yaku so I would start here discard those collect number tiles leverage the pair's maybe if we get one more pair plate toy toy which is all three of a kind if we draw five dot or a six dot maybe pure straight and pinfu Ricci those are all potential yaku with this set of tiles Souths round last round and pull this time let's say we're in north seat east is Dora eat soup with nuts back to eat eat soup with nuts pear pear pear one two three pear Dora potential score yaku high ne pone of dragons is called yaku high passes the seat or wind of the round all called yaku hi those could bring score I think I would try for toy toy here try to pair up I think I would discard these first because if we draw in a one two dot and maybe an eight crack we could play outside hand with ones nines and honors I would say toy toy or outside hand maybe both well if we played outside hand with toy toy we'd have to throw these away I'd rather leverage them I think toy toy is probably most likely here and I would try for that pair up and pone the purpose of this exercise is to practice identifying potential yaku if you have a set at home and you're new to this version give this exercise to try and let me know if it helps you identify potential yaku make sure that you download the player reference so that you can learn the Jakub you got to have at least one yaku to win if you liked this
